    This is a sequel to A Day in the Limelight.

    It's been a couple months since the Monkey Invasion, and Ponyville has settled down to...normal? During that time The Other Mane 6 have been busy. Now taking a well-deserved break, they try and relax. Luckily, these shadowy sentinels are around when the attack from horrible mo-wait no. The Bearers are taking care of that. Well, what about these strange statues tha-nope. The Doctor and companions are here for that one. Can these heroes just take a break and let other ponies handle it?

    >>1293143 Because the basic plot is similar to that of the episode pictured, and I suck at finding good cover pics. There are only so many involving the Other Mane 6.

    It is the one where Xander gets his uncle's car and has an adventure on his own while the rest of the gang is off fighting an evil they deem too dangerous to allow normal, non-special Xander to help with.

    >>1295144 Had to google it. I remembered when it got to part where he meets his "new friends"

    I partly agree with Carrot Top over there, it's about time the protagonist group starts making some progress, they've been fumbling around Ponyville for four chapters already. It's a pretty interesting story though, I suspect all the different problems are interconnected. The characterization is really interesting. The previous story was a bit too sharply divided between before and after the epiphany, it came out a bit too artificial in my opinion. I hope things develop a bit smoother this time.

    Now what the hell is that cover picture is doing there? It reeks of off-topic in so many ways it hurts. (Edit: found the explanation on the other comments… but my point stands… it still feels that way.)

    Thanks for the critique! Yeah, the thing was that story was originally written in script form, and while adapting I changed some stuff. The part you're talking about is where most of it changed, which explains the divide you mentioned.
