Trixie Goes Purple
New Magic
Before Rarity could do her thing, she and Twilight had a few papers to fill out, and then those would be sent to Celestia and Cadence over at the empire. Twilight would let Rarity get to it while she caught up with Trixie who was already looking over the books, picking out the right one.
Up above Twilight’s bookshelf within the tree house, there stood one shelf in particular. On top of the shelf containing spell books not normally found on display, there laid the thickest, greyest, oldest looking book Trixie had ever seen. “That’s not it.”
These were the spells that Twilight herself considered powerful, dangerous, or otherwise intense reads. Who knew what that monster of a book up there contained within it. For the moment, however, Trixie was still wondering where exactly that cosmetic spell was at. “Cosipulate, cosmeceutical, Cosmetic Magic! There it is! Funny, Trixie thought it’d be a lot more heavier.”
She sat in front of one such shelf, her pink aura wrapped about the paperback, skimming each piece of paper for the desired spell.
“No, no, no,” Trixie began chant at every turn of the page. “Nope, nada, not it… Here we go!” Her hoof landed on the picture with a mare magically brushing her mane. “Think of the color you desire your mane and coat to be, and presto! Now then, Trixie’s personal touch…”
With her horn twinkling at the tip, and some strange, black light circling in the back, Trixie’s entire being began to alter in pigmentation. It started from the tip of her horn, the normal blue taking on a distortion of red and green hues, and began to spread from there.
As the phenomena hit her middle portion, her hair began to darken from her original light blue color, becoming a much deeper shade that usual. One could almost call it… “Twilight?”
Trixie turned to see the princess walking through the front door, holding onto the knob. Trixie and Twilight locked eyes, and an ever so slight spark lit up between them. In the span of a second that lasted an eternity, they were unable to look away from each other, a power unlike what they could imagine surging between them.
At the end of that second, a resounding bang could be heard from outside the library. Twilight collapsed, but Trixie floated before her. Purple smoke loomed out of the cracks of the window. The fog was dense, but through it all, Twilight couldn’t see Trixie’s changes clearly. If anything, she looked like the cloud that hung around them.
Coughing, Twilight got to her hooves, her heart pumping fast, and a little weak as well. “Oooh, my head…”
Trixie landed, and stood as though nothing was wrong. She walked out of the fog, and pulled Twilight out as well. Eventually, the smoke subsided, and Twilight woke up a few minutes later on the couch, her head slightly stinging in the very front. On the other side of the room was Trixie. Though, something about her seemed different.
“Twilight…” The alicorn looked up, blinking several times before finally focusing, and then seeing the mare before her. “I… Well, I look like…”
“Me?” Twilight asked, getting down to the floor, eyes wide. The very coloring of Trixie’s mane and coat had changed from normal to lavender, Twilight’s color. The similarities were amazing. Everything but the cutie mark and mane cut looked identical to Twilight.
Coming nearer to Trixie in a low, cautious way, Twilight observed the exact coloring while Trixie asked, “This is Trixie’s favorite color? No, that’s not right!”
“Not right is right,” Twilight said. “I must’ve interrupted the spell, and you accidentally stole my look!”
Trixie sighed, not really concerned with it that much. “Trixie looks good, though.” Twilight blinked a few times. Of all things… She was concerned with THAT? Twilight watched as Trixie brought the closest mirror flying to her and struck a pose. The thing fell to the floor, broken with Trixie letting out a scream suddenly.
“Hey! That was expensive!”
“Twilight, my aura!” Twilight stared at Trixie’s horn, it glowing deep purple. It resembled her Highness's quite well. Slowly, Twilight’s horn shined, and she brought it close to Trixie’s for the two to compare.
“You’re right… It’s the same color as mine.” Getting a bit carried away, the tips touched, sending small sparkles shooting in all different directions. Twilight backed away while Trixie raised one of her hooves nervously. “That’s not supposed to happen!”
Twilight nodded. “Where’s the book you were reading?”
It hovered into Twilight’s grasp, pages turning and flipping back and forth. The book was positively filled with brushing techniques, eyeliner assistance, and finally, mane care. “There we go,” Twilight said. “Hmm… Says here your aura shouldn’t have changed unless you…”
Trixie sat down and crossed her hooves, scolding, “Tampered with it…”
Twilight’s eyes went wide, but not with anger as Trixie expected, but with glee. “Trixie! This is amazing! Do you know what you just did?” Trixie simply raised an eyebrow. “You just made new magic! Very few ever actually pull that off!”
Momentarily stunned, Trixie couldn’t contain herself. With a wide grin, she ask in a high pitched voice, “Trixie made new wh-”
Her horn shined brighter than ever before, and shot a ray of fireballs at the entrance of the treehouse, opening a new window for Twilight. Rubble upon burnt branches laid on Twilight’s destroyed lawn. Inside, Twilight stood with her mouth wide open, and not with glee, but shock. Trixie took a step back, her face contorting to hold back a cry of pure panic.
“T-Trixie…”
“I didn’t do it!”
“Your new magic…”
“Twilight, please forgive me!”
“You copied my alicorn p-powers.”
Trixie latched herself to Twilight’s legs, pleading for forgiveness. Twilight simply stared, mouth slowly closing, her eyes refusing to blink. The smell of ash entered her nose. That was just from a quick little spur of happiness. Celestia only knows how devastating Trixie’s copied abilities could be when she’s unstable.
Twilight turned her head to Trixie suddenly, and lifted her up. She attempted to scan her for a minute. While Trixie hung there limply, a scared expression on her face, Twilight took a deep breath, and then lowered the mare to the cracked floor once her test was completed.
Her head lowered. “Every spell… Every ounce of knowledge, and every year of practicing, training, and even mastering my own magic has been duplicated by you. That includes my alicorn experience as well.” She walked in circles, letting Trixie watch her. “But, you’re not me. You don’t know how to control yourself!”
Trixie scratched the back of her neck, and asked, “Then, I shouldn’t use magic?”
Twilight nodded again, and then said, “I need to do some research on this immediately. Give me that book you were using again, and get me the big, grey deadweight up there.” Trixie shivered, glanced to the wreckage outside, and the looked up at the slot containing the book Twilight asked for.
“Sorry, Twilight...”
The alicorn simply gave her a glance and started reading more into what happened exactly.

That puppy had better be alright.

Dogs always land on their feet. He'll be fine...
Oh wait, that's cats. Nevermind.
Something about this line makes me fear for my sanity.

What are you talking about? They are the sanest of people!

Hehe, I'm having fun helping with this.

I won't lie. It's probably that one guy who does that one thing here.
~Skeeter The Lurker
Trixie should get into all kinds of crazy hijinks with these powers. She'll probably carve Twilight's face into a mountainside or something. Most likely in Buffalo territory.
I will read this one day, and I will enjoy it.
"Excuse-moi"?
3506093 Changed.
3506093
Funny... They actually SAY hands in several of the episodes.

...semantics.
Besides Minotaurs have hands, if nothing else in the world they live in does. Do you want them to 'hoof' the book? Just like they facehoof? So I should palm you this pencil, like I facepalm XD? That's funny, because in
myour vernacular 'to palm' means something completely different... almost like the polar opposite of 'give,' in fact...Playing with words is fun.

In "A Canterlot Wedding" (Part One), Twilight says, "She sure has a way of sneaking up on people." Yeah, even the show itself isn't consistent about ponification.
I'm not sure if I should raise a cheer for this collaboration of insanity and awesome, or hide in a safe room until everything blows over.
Either way, I'm adding this to my RL because I'm lazy and resumes don't hand out themselves.
Err... I'm pretty sure Trixie and Twilight have always had the same natural aura color. It's always been purple, except when Trixie was using the Alicorn Amulet.

The first episode:

Not to thrash on you or anything, but I had my facts straight. We all put forth a good effort to make sure everything was correct.
3506406
Err... In the first one it looks purple to me. Or sort of pinkish-purple, which is exactly the same color as Twilight's aura.
In the third picture it looks more pale, more pinkish, which is something I never noticed before... Maybe it's because she was channeling a lot of energy there, I dunno? But I never got the impression that it had fundamentally changed color. Why would it do that?
This can only end horribly for everypony involved.
Pinkie! Pass the popcorn so as that we may watch this train wreck occur!
Okie dokie loki!
3506093
The show is not very consistent with their terms. They've said 'hands' before in the show, and the movie can be considered as non-canon, or a seperate canon.
3506829
I know. If I wanted to put all the inconsistencies of the show, I´ll needed to see again the "Everything wrong with... " serie in youtube.
3506829
Iron will had hands so they exist in canon verse too. The writers don't stay consistant on that or the everypony/everybody thing either.
3504866
That's what Michael Vick said.
This story is so great that it makes me want to hit myself in the face with a frying pan multiple times. Interpret that however you like.
I'm not gonna lie. This will end perfectly, hilariously, and insanely. Unless it doesn't.
Needs longer chapters.
Just reading the description was enough for me to put this on read later.
Trixie and purple... Oh the burn... Well, I think she will make the best of it.
Watch in awe:
The Great and Powerful PRIXIE!!!
Oh, very sweet. Trixie's being huge hammy goodness, not so subtle crushing on Twilight, a little Spixie tease to keep Swashbucklist on his toes... and then this. BAM!
Oh yes, I'll be keeping my eye on this one.
Huzzah Art Inspired! Back with a vengeance, and a Trixie story to boot! I'm currently in this weird Lyra/Trixie craze, don't mind me.
I'm so glad you're back - not that you were gone so much as "missed terribly", you understand.
IT BEGINS!
- I ate a puppy!
3508159 I have returned...
After an eternity away from you all...

Art Inspired is back.
Trixie looks good purple.
May I just say that it's refreshing to see a story in the featured box that isn't gratuitous clop?
I shall look forward to reading this.
well then, this should be interesting.
I'm only going to read this because I know those coauthors are... well, you know. lol
3509334now, I'm not complaining the clop, but I agree
3513213 Whatever floats your boat.
I'm just sick of seeing clopfics eat up the feature box just because they're clopfics.
Hmm. Interesting and crazy, just like I thought it would be. A few lines in this chapter didn't quite make sense though, like:
Presumably that's Twilight speaking, but unless she can read the narrator's mind, I don't see why she would question with her own name. Seems like it should be "Trixie?" However, if that was supposed to be Trixie speaking, that makes even less sense because there would be no reason for her to turn around and see Twilight!
It would make sense if Trixie was looking in a mirror and commented to herself that the color is "Twilight?" but that would have a whole new set of implications, which you've already been making anyway with the hints that Trixie is in love with Twilight, though I think that could be meant to imply such to the reader when in actuality she just greatly admires her. Then again, the whole wanting to see Twilight get dressed thing makes that a bit of a stretch now. Hmm...
There were a few more such "errors" in continuity, but that's the one I remember most.
3513248 Just turn off mature rated stories for a minute and you'll see what the clop fics are blocking.
