January 2023: "Second Chances"

Author's Note:

Click here for the other entries!

Since there was another option to have instead another prompt from last year, I decided to use this one and several others because why not :pinkiecrazy:

Following prompts were used:

  • Second Chance
  • Break the Rules!
  • Even the Heartless Have a Heart
  • A Terrible Day to Have Eyes
  • I didn't think the leopards would eat MY face!
  • Just This Once
  • skintight bodysuit

Received the hon mensh: I can only stand back and admire the willingness to take so many prompts and still make a readable story out of them.

Well, spite is a factor, I guess :trixieshiftright:

Not My Fault

“Listen, once Trixie saw that big, shiny diamond lying there, alone, inside a glass showcase, she thought of all the criminal ponies who would want to steal it. Trixie is a one-pony showmare, but even she has a heart and imagined how awful the owner would feel once his precious possession would be lost forever. Feeling pity, she decided to break the glass and ste—save it from the dangerous place and hide it somewhere safe—from criminals of course. Sure, it wasn’t a good idea to brag about being now the richest mare in Equestria, and putting it on top of my wagon to showcase it was probably a bad hiding place, but Trixie wouldn’t have ever thought that it would get stolen from her own secure hooves!

“Please, give me a second chance, Princess Twilight! Just this one time! Trixie can’t return to the prison; their outfits are too small!”
