    Friends with Ponies

    Twilight and Sunset:

    Twilight: "Hey Rarity, can I borrow your hair curler, I can't find mine."
    Rainbow: *eyes widen*

    Pinkie: "Oh my god, I just thought you guys were doing it, I didn't know you were in love!"

    Shining Armor: "What? No, no no no...what are you doing? GET OFF MY SISTEEEEEEEEER!"

    Revised Harmony Spirits

    I wanted a full set of these with proper art, so with permissions from mauroz, here they are. A couple effects have been tweaked to be consistent with modern vernacular in the card game and for my own better understanding of card design and balancing, and I also added a new "Tier 1.5" form for Twilight so she can have her own Fusion outside the ace monster, and finally added Sunset as a

EqG Specials - A Fine Line, Pinkie-Sitting, Queen of Clubs, School of Rock · 11:56pm Nov 2nd, 2017

Let us begin the series we’ve been waiting for since 2014!

“Tirek’s Revenge” is a video game, heh. Anyone else picking up on metatext, “the first game was awesome, been waiting ages for the sequel?” I wanna see Princess Twi’s reaction to this game. I hope this means Power Pony Pummel is a thing. Also this is a minor thing to get excited over, but I always appreciate it when actual legible text is present and not just scribbles.

So yeah Sunset is bored waiting in line for hours on end. It’s called cell phone games, girl, I could sit at home for hours playing Final Fantasy Record Keeper. In fact I’m taking a break from it now, they’ve re-released dozens of old event dungeons and I have until Sunday to do all I can before they’re gone again. Rainbow shows up and zips off to get the gang (good joke, “you’re here!” “and you’re gone.”) and they hang out in line together having fun until they get to the storefront, at which point of course it’s sold out. Fortunately Pinkie is here to teach us the magic of pre-ordering. Good on you, girl, that’s what us smart gamers do.

And now we have Fluttershy’s Revenge as a meme.

Ship it like Fed-ex, bitches. Like, I know I’m contractually obligated to ship SunLight (really: it’s in the contract I signed with Albinocorn that I only get to pre-read his stuff if I mention SunLight at least once a month, or else he gets my soul and my cat. And I really like my cat), but SunsetDash is a close second. Sunset’s cute and badass and plays guitar, and RD is cute and badass and plays guitar, and now they both play video games!

And now for “Pinkie-Sitting” PleaselettherebeMaudPleaselettherebeMaudPleaselettherebeMaud

Pinkie gets to babysit some girl named Lily. Is this a one-off OC I don’t recognize? Lily is a, shall we say, “normal kid,” so she’s weirded out by Pinkie and just wants to read on her tablet while backing away slowly without breaking eye contact. Pinkie gets bored until she expresses interest in the story and begins acting it out, tires herself out, and Lily reads it to her until Pinkie falls asleep. “You’re gonna be a terrific baby-sitter.” I wonder if that was Rarity’s intent all along, she was supposed to baby-sit Pinkie and got Lily to fill in.

“School of Rock”, THERE’S MAUD! :pinkiehappy: So Maud is being Maud giving a tour of the history museum when Rarity, Pinkie, and Twilight use their magic to spice up the exhibits a bit and get people interested. Maud is Maud in response. But aaaaw, she has a fanclub! She’s so happy! If you don’t like Maud this short won’t do much for you but I never tire of her.

:pinkiegasp: !!!!!!!

Finally “Queen of Clubs,” Rainbow and Applejack get into a rivalry over who’s part of the most clubs, mostly by photobombing them at group pictures. I liked the world building here as they dash through the clubs:

* Trixie is in a D&D club with Snips, Snails, and Big Mac, heh.
* Jock guy in the chess club
* Bulk in the knitting club (thought it was a Legend of Everfree callback but no; that one was arts and crafts for potholders)
* Rarity in science (wouldn’t she be in the knitting club too?)
* Band (the band leader from Friendship Games is here, but no Octavia?)
* Flash in chemistry (learning why he has none with anyone, HA!)
* Aart class (I spy a new Wondercolt Statue being chiseled!)
* Derpy and the Eco Guy in cooking (He made brownies, “wink wink”. Derpy made a giant muffin)
* Tap club ( guess the four members, guess :rainbowlaugh:)
* Science club (Twilight’s robot-dog is here, cool continuity)
*...this last one I dunno. Cosplay club? Wig club? Drama?

It ends with them being in every club except one, that Rarity is the sole member of with Applejack’s pig. Um... okay?

I had to the moment I saw this.

So, overall verdict - there are cute. All are decently funny save for Queen of Clubs, but that one is appreciated for showing the various students and their hobbies for worldbuilding. If this is what the shorts will be like, bring em on.

Also, the new outfits. They’re fine, kinda lame that Sunset’s is basically just her old outfit with the top and skirt swapping colors, but the outfits are fine. Just really highlights the terrible body proportions though with their superlong legs and small torsos.

I thought these weren't supposed to come out until November 17th though it was nice to watch them now. Thanks for posting this it made finding them a lot easier. :twilightsmile:

So Principal Celestia isn't the only one with freakishly long legs now?

I gotta admit once I realized Applejack brought a fence to the fencing club I got a real good laugh.

They still look less weird than Clamp characters with their weirdly long arms.

4715415 Yeah, that looks so weird. Not sure what happened to the character designs, sure hope the animators catch that and fix the proportions back to what they were.

4715418
They always looked that way, but they also always had boots and skirts on so it wasn't as noticeable.

I really like Dash's pants, but what's with the Bowser-grade Spikes of Villainy friendship cones on Sunset's new vest?

But yeah, these were cute. Also, that one that has you scratching your head is the Japanese culture club (look carefully at the book covers) in full magical girl squad poses, complete with Tuxedo Jack.

No, I mean the last one with Rainbow, Pinkie, and two other girls.

Just watched these, liking this way of giving us more Equestria Girls. Hands down my favorite bit was that weird Fluttershy moment. "The revenge?" See, THIS is MY EG Fluttershy right here, in all her random salty goodness.

And it’s already a meme, ofc. I named the tag :raritywink:

Wow, Hasbro sure blocked all the videos quickly. I didn't get to watch any. :ajsleepy: I guess I'll just wait until the 17th. :applejackunsure:

4715622
Dailymotion is your friend.

4715623
Huh, thanks (how did I not think of that!?). :twilightsmile:

I said this in the other thread that got deleted, but I’ll repeat it here: that ‘revenge’ bit made me hard, and I’m not ashamed to admit it.

Gamer sunset shimmer head canon confirmed. These shorts were a good early birthday present

sunset is officially a gamer sunset is officially a gamer
