Several months have passed since Camp Everfree. Twilight and Timber see each other on occasion, Rarity and Fluttershy usually keep to their own. Pinkie's been super busy with helping the Cakes. Sunset has been writing to Princess Twilight in Equestria. Applejack has taken on more responsibility on the farm. Everyone spent their days separate from each other. Rainbow decided to try and change that with the purchase of a digital camcorder.
She sat down with one of her closest friends to discuss what she wants done with it.

Huh, this is definitely something she would do. Only now do I realize that I've never seen a story about them just mucking about with superpowers. Y'know, stuff like Rainbow playing both sides of a Ping-Pong game. Random stuff like that.
I think I'll enjoy this.
This reminds me of a movie. I don't know what it was called, but CinemaWins winned it a while back.
I love this reverse-scam, it's actually real, but they're putting work into 'faking" it. This is definitely one of the best ideas Rainbow's ever had.
Sunset could "ambush" her with a super soaker or something?
They have CinemaSins?
This is nothing like I expected...
Whihc is great, because what I expected was a mediocre story, not a story about Dash as an aspiring YouTuber.

Ypu talking about "now you see me"?
9342483
No, Chronicle, I think.
Liking this story.
I am insanely curious to see where this is going.
9348428
Somewhere Awesome, that's where its going!
So sunset called them by their names, but rarity called them how rainbow told them to call them
9349816
Rainbow isn't telling them exactly what to say. Just giving them a prompt and letting the mind wing it. So long as the idea gets out there, Rainbow doesn't really care how it's said.
9350081
Oh... ok
Y'ever consider getting a proofreader?
9354659
Was there somewhere I flubbed?
9354664
Several I'm afraid. The most notable one of Aj instead of AJ.
9354668
How do you mean? Aj is Applejack, right? One word? If it were Apple Jack, then I would.
Edit: Wait, has it ALWAYS been AJ? Why would they need both capitalized? I've always done lower j. You are the first to call me out on that.
9354677
Fair point, that's just how I've always seen it written.
9354679
Still a good story though, right?
9354683
Yes. But, a proofreader would be useful.
There is absolutely no way those enormous cannons weigh anywhere near 50 pounds

9354808
And yet, both Pinkie and Twilight had trouble sliding them across the floor in wooden boxes.
9354863
Well them being able to move them could just be chalked up to cartoon logic. But irl the lightest cannon I could find is 1800 pounds or 800 kilos.
And judging by the picture alone those cannons are definitely made of metal.
9354880
Okay, so it's not that I overestimated it, I low-balled it. That said, we've seen Aj bury a wooden steak far bigger than she is, and toss a massively boulder like it's nothing. I think carrying a cannon is wellness within her power.
9355046
I know but I'm just saying that you underestimated the weight of pinkie's cannons
9355082
Ah... I got you... Noted. And we'll call that Rainbow's underestimation, because I totally know better. <_< ... >_>

Be honest, how long did it take you to type out the first hundred digits of pi?
9355377
Since I did it from the youtube video, several minutes of pausing, tab flipping and typing. ^^;
Shade, Shadow, Sombra?
Awesome
Ooh, stuff is getting real.
Twilight, Telekinesis is surprisingly strong. Ever seen Carrie?
9439967
While her power would be impressive, she canonically doesn't like showing off, and hasn't learned the difference between protecting and showboating yet.
9440065
I refer you to the latest EQG short.
9440067
It looks like the short you are referring to is after the whole "Memory Stone" thing with ... what's her name, during the yearbook part of the year. This, is closer to the middle of that year.
9441298
Wallflower. But I meant the one with Trixie.
9441301
Yeah. Her. Also, it should be worth mentioning that she does it when no one is watching her do it. They're watching Trixie.
A mysterious voice, hmm?
9448968
If you recognize the quote, it's one from Kingdom Hearts 1.
9449016
Sorry, never played any of the Kingdom Hearts games
Don’t
Also, it may sound absurd, but remove the periods, and optionally you can capitalize both ‘T’ and ‘V’. You want the periods removed because televisions are often referred to as TVs, and if something is often referred to by its abbreviation, the abbreviation is basically a different word with no periods. The USA also functions like this.
It’s been so long that I forgot the plot. But this chapter’s pretty good, regardless.
Yeahh... Sorry about that...
Give it a reread? Gonna be working on the next chapter soon.
Reminds me of an old villain of Hawkeye's way back in the day. Champion or summat like that?
This, is getting boring honestly. Shade is kind of a Villain (?) Sue. He's displaying powers completely unlike anything in the show, he's never lost, he keeps having access to knowledge he should have no way of knowing, we still know next to nothing about who he is, what he wants or what his shtick is, and it's honestly more frustrating than anything else. To be perfectly honest, I think I preferred this when it was the girls showing off their powers.
This had better have a really good payoff, because so far it's played like "wish fulfillment" the superpower. I'll lay even odds that this is Discord faffing around for some dumb reason.
Decent fight tho.

I admit, it’s hard to keep it a secret and I’m sorry for doing it this way. Be glad: next chapter reveals exactly how he has this power, thanks to Princess Twilight and her power of reading scrolls.

You know, that picture doesn't make me think those are made of metal. They make me think plastic of some kind. Maybe there is metal reinforcing parts of them but not the whole thing.
