>sometimes all of ponyville holds a big town-wide game of pretend
>all that really means just pretend fighting (no contact of course)
>and anon LOVED it
>he loved it so much that he started ordering cosplay outfits from rarity just to get more into the feel of it
>but this isn’t where our story begins
>no, not in the slightest
>for you see, twilight made the grave mistake of giving anon an amulet
>and not just any amulet mind you
>but an amulet that can perform some pretty aesthetic spells
>nothing more than teleportation and sound and lights
>sadly for twilight, this would be one of her biggest mistakes
“Twi, I can’t play until you hit my summon sign”
>twilight was secretly an avid dark snowpity fan
>from her perspective, she thought this was bound to be a cool adventure with her new side kick
>but brewing within anons mind is a scheme to really piss her off
>twilight was surely autistic 
>she had to have been
>anon had never seen someone go on such long and detailed rants about the most mundane stuff in her stupid pony videogames
>but there’s nothing in this world that really wrecks her autistic brain as much as one thing
>inconsistancy
>and there’s nothing more inconsistent to her than crossovers
>sometimes she gets so twi-tistic that when she sees spike reading one of those mass produced crossover comics she has to go on a walk just to cool down
>and today, anon knew just how to get her good
>”OOH! This is gonna be so FUN!”
>she playfully taps the glowing squiggles on the ground playing along with anons newfound abilities
>anon disappears only for him to rise from the ground gracefully
>thought for twilight, seeing him do the ‘praise the sun’ pose despite having a white sign has already gave her a good dose of annoyance
>though if that weren’t enough, anon had decided to change outfits (magically of couse) in the time it took for him to rise from his summon sign
>”anon… what is… that…”
>her disappointment is obvious
“Cmon twi, I thought i would switch it up a little bit”
>”REALLY, HERD FORTRESS 2???”
“... gotta admit it’s stylish…”
>her scrunch is immeasurable and her tone is venomous
>”it just doesn’t fit…”
“But twi, I love playing scout”
>anon absolutely hated scout but he had to do it for the bit
>”fine…”

>anon and twilight roam around town waiting to surprise attack any nearby contenders 
>’fights’ sprawl around town consisting of imaginary weapons and lots of vocal sound effects
>twilight unenthusiastically leads anon towards pinkie pie
>currently she is having an absolute BLAST
>swinging her big, uh, i’m not sure maybe it’s like a really big sword, I can’t read her mind honestly
>but basically she’s fighting off derpy and fluttershy
>the only reason she hasn’t flat out won yet is because derpy doesn’t understand the rules and never back down and fluttershy is way to cautious to try
>twilight turns to anon to reveal her plan
>”okay anon, im going to loop around behind pinkie while she’s distracted and sneak attack”
>”I need you to distract her in case anything goes wrong”
“Got it“
>anon in fact, did not get it
>anon planned for nothing more than to annoy her
>following her plans would defeat that purpose
>as twilight pretended to be sneaky (which always worked for who knows what reason) anon had another plan in mind
>just as twilight was about to get in position, anon pulled out his imaginary rocket launcher and made his (vocal) attack
“WOOSH”
>flutters pinkie and derpy all looked towards anon
>anon spread out his arms to mimic an explosion effect (saying boom super loud is too evil even for anon)
>with smiles on their faces they all play along, even derpy had a huge grin as she flung her front hooves up and rolled backwards
>by the time it was all over they were all giggling and having a fun time
>anon saw twilight peak around the corner of her surprise attack spot with shock
>but he had one more little trick up his sleeve
“CAT BEANZ!”
>twilight’s face was motionless
>anon cringed horribly inside but he REALLY needed to pull this off
>derpy rolls over and faces anon while still on the ground
“OH! THAT’S DEMO PONE’S TAUNT!”
>twilight’s brain finally made it back to reality upon hearing this obvious mistake
>she jumps out of her hiding spot to confront anon
>”THAT’S NOT WHAT HE SAYS, NOT ONLY DOES SCOUT NOT DO THAT TAUNT, BUT DEMO PONE SAYS KA-BOOM, EVERYPONY KNOWS THAT”
>anon feigns ignorance 
“But, but I thought that’s what he says…”
>twilight tries everything she can to suppress her anger at anons clear disrespect of her glorious franchise
>sucks for her that she’s twi-tistic and is about to have a melt down
>”THAT. IS. NOT. WHAT. HE. SAYS!”
>anon and the other three look at twi a little surprised
>twilight grumbles before looking back at anon
>”I’m not playing with you anymore if you don’t play it right…”
>anon actually kind of starts to feel bad for pissing her off so much
“Alright, I’m sorry twi, i’ll play the game the way you want from now on”
>twilight seemd content with that answer for now 
>it’s too bad anon has short term memory loss

>team anon and twi finally made it to town square
>the place with the most action
>and anon had to scramble his brain in order to come up with something else to because he was running out of material
>”okay anon, listen, town square is filled, im thinking if you back me up with healing spells I can take on some of the fighters on the outskirts”
>”We can make our way in slowly and then we can take the winners crown for ourselves”
>now, the winners crown was simply a cardboard crown colored with markers
>but to the residents of ponyville, to win that crown is a symbol of high status
>not that anypony else is low status, that would be mean
>anyways, anon had to come up with something but he was running out of time
>twilights plans were essentially already in motion so he had to play along for a little bit
>as twilight swung her imaginary sword with autistic vril her opponents played along and fell back with each swing
>but unlike her opponents, when twilight is hit she simply looks to you to ‘heal’ her so she can keep playing indefinitely
>this goes on for a little while until you find a golden opportunity
>a lone changeling, clearly nervous to be in ponyville all alone
>he looks on at the crowd completely unaware of your gaze
>he seemed like he was anxious to join in but was worried about something
>this was perfect
“D CLASS SPOTTED”
>everypony turns to you and stops fighting
>the lone changeling whips his head around to face you
>you get in position to fire your ki blast
“Kaaaaa, Maaaaaae, Haaaaaaa, Maaaaaae…”
>you fire your imaginary kamehameha towards the changeling (within a reasonable volume of course)
“HAAAAAAAAA!”
>everypony’s eyes track the imaginary blast as it goes straight towards him
>his face lights up with joy as he prepares his part in the play
>he stands up on his hind legs, twirls around with his front leg on his forehead then falls over and lets his tongue hang out
>but he still keeps one eye open to see everyones reaction
>twilight grits her teeth and slowly turns to you
>now was your chance
>in your most overly exaggerated voice you spoke
“Counter-terrorists win!”
>her face fills with red as she grits 
>now this would have been funny under any other circumstance
>but you see there’s one little issue
>her eyes are teary
>for normal ponies that means sad
>but for somepony with horse autism that meant an incoming meltdown
>she huffs and puffs before shouting
>”NONE *HUFF* OF *HUFF* THOSE *HUFF* THINGS *HUFF* EVEN *HUFF* GO *HUFF*TOGETHERRRRRrrrrrrrrrrrrraaaaAAAAAAAAAAHHHHhhhhh”
>twilight stomps her hooves in a tantrum 
>”THEY. DONT. FIT. TOGETHER. THEY. DONT. FIT!!!!!!”
>she sprawls out on the ground continuing her tantrum
>now anon surely felt bad
>but he REALLY has to finish out the bit
“Twi, wait, I’m sorry, it’s just that…”
>she looks up at you from the ground still bitterly angry at anon not being as much of a puritan as she is about her favorite media
>”JUST WHAT!”
>the final strike is about to commence
“It’s just that, I haven’t even done my taunt after the takedown”
>twilights eyes look like they’re on fire
>both her and anon know what comes next
“CAT BEA-”
>her rage boils over so much that she starts frothing at the mouth
>everypony panics, including that one changeling, though he looks like he’s pretty clueless about what’s going on so he’s having fun
>anon panics thinking he just fried twilights purple brain from so much cringe
>suddenly a nurse red heart runs up to twilight
>she grabs an emergency canteen of chocolate milk and pours it onto twilights lips slowly
>as twilight slowly comes back from her autistic HYPER meltdown she starts to just barely move her mouth around to lap up the chocolate milk
>after a few seconds pass she starts to gain back her motor control and grabs the canteen and chugs it for all it’s worth

>the aftermath was a mixed bag
>twilight had to go to the hospital, apparently chocolate milk and cookies were needed to keep her healthy after such an intense meltdown and she needed to be monitored for a bit
>on the other hand, anon’s performance wowed everypony so much they all decided to give him the victory crown for this months game
>anon made friends with that one changeling and got him to socialize around ponyville after the game officially ended
>at least anon did one good thing
>but honestly, one good thing didn’t make up for how bad he felt
>hey, anon might be retarded but he’s not stupid, he still had a conscience 

>anon entered twilights hospital room
“Um, hey twi…”
>she looks at him all grumpy like
>”what do YOU want…”
>little did twilight know, anon had something behind his back just for her
“Twilight… you’ve been a really good friend to me for a long time now”
“You even put up with me all day even after i was so mean to you, I kind of got carried away and i’m ~actually~ sorry for it this time…”
>twilight is still silent and refuses to look anon in the eye
“I know you’re mad, but i figured i would give you something that rightfully belongs to you”
>her eyes flick towards anon but her head stays facing the window
>anon pulls out the victory crown and presents it to Twilight
“I think you deserve this twi, I wouldn’t have made it outside the front door if it weren’t for your quick thinking”
“...we were a team after all, and besides, this crown represents more than just victory, but also how good of a team member you really are”
>twilight looks down for a moment only to look back up with a big smile
>”I, I… Thanks anon!”
>though she didn’t say much, her smile said it all…
The End :D
