This is a pretty good story

So... Did Twilight die? Clearly RD's down for the count, but she's probably still alive. I guess I'm just confused because I equate the Tragedy tag with death.

In short, no! Twilight's alive, but she had overdosed and needed medical care urgently. The tragedy tag was mainly for the act of overdosing itself.

That would typically be the Suicide/Self-Harm tag (unless that's not a thing anymore, but I think it is?)

Hecking dang it, Ruby. I want more. :P

Excellent story.

Well-written and fascinating story, but somehow it feels a bit... Incomplete? Like it never reaches the actual resolution, cutting off at the tail-end of the climax just as it's starting to dip its toes into the denouement/falling action part.

Could also probably use the suicide/self-harm tag since Twi, well, harms herself by OD-ing on pills.

I totally agree, and I was wracking my head trying to think of a better way to end it that wasn't trope-y or bulky, definitely something to keep in mind going forward with other stories though! Thank you!! :twilightsmile:

Oh there's more coming >:3c (Not of this fic, but definitely others that I know you'll love)!

It feels amazing to run across a story that flows like something you'd hear on Selected Shorts. Contrary to popular opinion, I like abrupt, inconclusive endings that leave you in a state of unresolved tension. Everyone else seems to hate that and want to tie everything up with a bow. But for me it's like an untitled abstract painting. If you give it a name, there's a right and wrong answer for how to interpret the piece. Once people have that, they move on and stop thinking about it instead of having it haunt their dreams.

....Is Rainbow dead?
