My attempt to craft a scenario that would have a believable reason for a transformation from human to pony, after a discussion about how all TF stories were either tranny tier TG shit, or made no sense (The "you arrive to Equestria, and you immediately poof into a pony for no reason whatsoever" scenario.) Might come in handy some day. >Be Twilight. >Be messing around in your laboratory with magic not meant for mortals to mess with. >You're a mortal, so you probably shouldn't be doing this. >But what's the worst that could happen? >Suddenly, your experiment becomes unstable, and tears a hole in the universe. >Oops. >Okay, purple, don't panic. >You got this. >Just as you barely manage to start charging your horn, some kind of two-legged alien falls out of the hole with a scream. >Crap. >Okay. maybe you don't have this. >Making a split-second decision, you start stabilizing the dimensional tear, as it looks like it's about to overload and rip the world in half. >Deal with the alien later. >It takes you a minute, but you manage to do it. >Yay, crisis averted! >No need to tell Celestia about this. >"AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!" >Oh, right. The alien. >Whoops. Slipped your mind. >You examine its form. >Since it arrived here, it appears to have... >Burst into flames. >It's flailing around, sparks of supercharged magic falling everywhere as its body is slowly disintegrating. >Oh dear. >It even sounds like a colt's voice. >You attempt to scan one of its appendages, but the moment your magic makes contact with it, it violently atomizes in a burst of Primal magic, which washes over you. >Freaking out, you wish for everything to stop so you can get a breather and analyze the situation. >To your surprise, it works. >Everything stops, including time itself. >You blink as you try to understand what's happening. >It takes you a little, until it clicks. >Primal magic! The very essence of Creation! >The existence of it was only theorized, and archmages attempted to purify even a drop of it for their entire lives. >And you're SOAKED in it. >You can bend time itself to your will! >But how? >The alien... *** >Be Anon. >Get sucked into a different universe. >Your alien matter doesn't agree with this universe's materials, and it causes some kind of matter-antimatter reaction. >Not having a good time. >Kind of hurts a little. *** >Be Twiggles again. >Weigh your options. >With this power, you could do.. Anything! >But at what cost? >The life of an innocent? >No, you have to fix this.. Somehow. >You can't send it back to its universe. >It would die immediately, with how half-disintegrated it already is. >And you don't even know how, or where! >And if you touched it with magic, it'd just die completely anyway. >Biting your lip, you make a choice. >There's only one thing to do: >Use the primal creation magic and create a vessel for the alien's soul, one that would be able to exist in Equestria. >Unfortunately, you can't recreate its body from the brief glance. >The body you're most familiar with is that of a unicorn: yours. >But it sounded male... >Your brother? >It'd have to do. >Focusing, you begin to weave... >Bone by bone, organ by organ... >As you reach out towards the alien, more and more of its matter gets disintegrated, fueling your spell >You really hope it's not conscious for this... >And with each burst of power, you replace that energy with Equestrian matter. >Capturing its mind and soul without disintegrating them takes some temportal trickery and manipulation to acctually achieve. >But you're fairly certain you managed to do it. >Once you finally finish, an uncoscious unicorn lies before you. >A tall, lean, but strong unicorn. Elegant and alluring even while its splayed out on the floor. >Practically a paragon of unicorn beauty. >Did you overdo it? >No, it's the least you could do after abducting and essentially killing it. >No, not it. Him. >You confirmed that was well when you looked back through time. >As you study his features, you begin to get flushed. >What's happening? >... >Oh. Maybe you made him a little too pretty after all. >... >Damn, those are some fine leg- >Focus, Sparkle, >You're going to have a lot of explaining to do... >Both to him, and to others.
