Trixie barreled her way into the hospital, stopping only to ask what room Dinky Doo was in. She could still salvage this. This wasn’t a complete and total disaster until—
“MUFFIN! Where’s my muffin!” The doors slammed open with thundering boom. Ditzy Doo panted, having clearly just flown all the way across town to get here. “Where. Is. My. DINKY?!” She demanded, looking around at anypony and everypony. A frightened hospital staff member pointed down the hall. “Baby! Mommy’s co-omiiiing!” Ditzy wailed as she took off, sending a flurry of papers and small items flying about in her wake.
Trixie closed her jaw, which she just realized had been hanging open, with a click and adjusted her hat.
Well, horseapples.
Moving at a more sedate pace, Trixie followed Ditzy to the room where Dinky was resting. She passed a large window pane that peered into the room. Dinky was pressed up against her mother in a massive hug. There was a circle of white bandages tied around her forehead. She didn’t appear to be seriously injured…unless the nurses failed to pry Ditzy off of her before she suffocated her daughter.
Looking ahead, Trixie saw that the door to the room was opened…and Rainbow Dash was standing at the entrance, looking in. She sighed in faint relief. Twilight hadn’t beaten her here. She could still explain everything, make it all right.
“Rainbow Dash, I came as soon as I heard!” Trixie began as Rainbow slowly turned to Trixie, her head lowered. “I’m so sorry.” Trixie bit her lip. “Listen, I ran into Twilight on the way here. I think she might have been trying to teach Dinky some magic on the side and—”
“Save it.” Rainbow Dash said in a harsh whisper, gently closing the door to Dinky’s room.
Trixie blinked. “B-but…” She gasped as Rainbow Dash raised her head to glare at her. Trixie reared up, bringing a hoof up to her mouth as she shakily pointed her other at Dash. “What happened to your eyes?!” She blurted as she looked into Rainbow’s furiously narrowed and angry eyes: one its typical magenta or reddish-pink color, the other a deep purple.
The same color as…Trixie realized it just as soon as Twilight Sparkle stepped out from behind the door. Her previously messy mane had been fixed, revealing that one of her eyes was now magenta. The same one that was purple in Dash’s face.
“The spell of Shared Sight.” Twilight said quietly, feeling a need to fill the sudden silence. “A temporary spell that allows the spell’s caster to exchange one of their eyes with another pony’s; this permits both ponies to see what the other experiences. Another spell can allow you to hear as well.”
Trixie felt the blood draining from her face, growing pale as she shivered all over; suddenly cold. The only sound she could hear was her own strained breathing and her heart pounding in her chest. “I—I—Rainbow Dash…”
The cyan pegasus’ eyes were filmed over with moisture, both her original and her borrowed one. “J-just shut up! Don’t say anything!” She walked over to the wall and pressed her head against it. Hard. “I—grah! I can’t even look at you right now!”
“Y-you have to let me explain!” Trixie pleaded. “I did it for you!”
“You did it for yourself!” Rainbow Dash all-but roared at her, spinning around to face her. “What makes you think that I wanted you to torment and humiliate my best friends, try to provoke them, fill little fillies heads with nonsense that could get them hurt—all the while hiding under my wings and making me your accomplice? I recommended you to Ditzy! I trusted you. Now Dinky’s in the hospital, my friends are furious with me, my co-workers want me fired, and Ditzy’ll blame me for this and probably throw me out and it’s ALL. YOUR. FAULT!”
Trixie whinnied in distress and ran out, sobbing all the way.
Twilight walked over and gently placed her hoof on Rainbow’s withers. “I’m sorry, Rainbow Dash.”
“Why should you be?” Rainbow’s voice quavered as she fought to remain angry. Being angry was better than being all…wimpy and sad. “You were right. Trixie’s a lying, cheating…jerk! I’m better off without her…I hope I never see her again!”
Twilight shook her head. “Oh Rainbow…this isn’t what I wanted to happen.” She gave her friend a quick nuzzle. “We both saw how upset she was when she spoke to me…how afraid she was of losing you. I don’t think she has any other friends and was terrified at the prospect of being alone.”
“S’er own fault.” Rainbow mumbled, blinking rapidly to hold back any tears that might try to slip past.
Twilight sighed. “Rainbow Dash…I think you need to go talk things out with Trixie. You can’t let it end like this.”
“Why not? She was…just awful to you guys.” She looked up at Twilight. “Especially you. A-and I just let her…”
“That wasn’t your fault. Dash, after learning how wonderful it is to have friends I don’t want to be responsible for breaking up a friendship. Please, if not for Trixie, then for me?”
“Twilight…” the pegasus sighed, trying to find the right way to say no.
Twilight shook her head. “I’m serious about this Rainbow. Look, you said you feel responsible for all the horrible things Trixie said and did to me? Fine. Then consider this your way of making it up to me. You owe me.”
“Hrrrrnnng.” Rainbow groaned. She looked back through the window. “…what about Dinky? And Ditzy? I-I can’t just bail on them. Not now…”
“I’ll stay with them.” Twilight promised. “They won’t be going anywhere for a bit.” She smiled as she tilted her head to the warm scene before them. “Dinky is fine; just tired from all the excitement. They’ll still be here when you get back. Trixie won’t be. Please, do this for me?”
“…okay.” Rainbow said softly. “Thanks Twilight. For…for everything.”
“It’s okay.” Twilight smiled back. “What are friends for?”
& & &
Trixie galloped back to her carriage, hastily using her magic to push the stage back in. She was frantic. Everything had gone wrong! She had to get out of here, had to get away—
“Where do you think you’re going?” A familiar raspy voice demanded. Trixie gasped and looked up. Rainbow Dash hovered over her, hooves crossed. “Did you really think you could outrun me in that rickety-old cart?”
Sweating bullets, Trixie quickly summoned her magic to push Rainbow Dash away as she galloped fast in another direction, any direction!
“Oh come on!” Rainbow landed right in front of her. “You don’t think you can outrun me by cart so you try to do it on hoof? Are you serious?”
Trixie turned and ran down an alley between two houses. Rainbow Dash was already waiting for her, stretching her hooves and yawning. “Oh, what kept you?”
Growing increasingly panicked, Trixie fled down streets, between houses and through lawns as she tried to get away. She stopped to catch her breath under the fountain in the town square, panting heavily. Trixie looked around.
No sign of Rainbow Dash coming from any direction. Trixie wiped her face clean of any perspiration and sighed. “Thirsty?” She looked up to see Rainbow perched on top of the fountain, a glass of water balanced on her hoof. “Want a drink?”
Trixie let out a wail of despair as she tried to flee again. Her pegasus pursuer just sighed. “Okay, this is getting old.” She flapped her wings and zoomed off after Trixie, tackling her to the ground. “Gotcha!”
The blue unicorn squirmed beneath her, trying to get free. “Gerroff!” She said, her face pressed against the ground. “Lemme go!”
“Not until you talk to me!” Rainbow Dash grunted. “So start talking or I start getting comfy!”
“Fine!” Trixie gasped. “I—I won’t run. I promise.”
“…Don’t know how much a promise from you comes from anymore.” Rainbow did let Trixie up though. “The second I see you eyeing for a place to bolt to, I will grab you and finish the conversation in the air. Got it?” Seeing a nod, Rainbow stood back to let Trixie talk.
“T-trixie, I mean I…” Trixie deflated. “I don’t know.”
“You don’t know?” Dash’s tone was clearly incredulous. “Well isn’t that just convenient? You come into town, immediately start disparaging everything about it, do your best to make my friends miserable and teach Dinky unsafe magic and you don’t even know why?” She glared. “You know exactly why you did it; and I wanna hear you say it. Straight from the pony’s mouth.”
Trixie looked balefully at her, her eyes moist. “Fine!” She choked out. “You were the only pony that understood Trixie! The only one who knew what it meant to work and struggle for a dream that other ponies laughed at! A-and I knew we were destined for greatness—together! But then you abandoned Trixie…”
“I abandoned you?! Get over yourself!” Dash snapped. “As I recall, you left Canterlot because you wanted to take your show on the road to build up more of a name for yourself!”
“You didn’t come with me!” Trixie sniffled. “Y-you stayed behind…I thought we agreed…”
Rainbow Dash shook her head. “No, you agreed! This is the way it’s always been! You make these plans involving me but never bother to ask if it’s what I want and just assume I’ll go along with it—then when I don’t you try to beg, bribe, or pressure me into going along!”
“But…we were going to be famous…” Trixie mumbled in disbelief. “Who wouldn’t want that? I know you do…”
“Yeah but I—I don’t want it like that! Not it if costs me everything else!” Rainbow Dash walked around her in a circle. “I want to join the Wonderbolts and it would be totally awesome if we could combine your magic with my flying. You’re right about that. But I’m my own pony. That means I make my own choices without you going behind my back to make them for me or trying to drive my friends away! You don’t have a monopoly on me Trixie!”
“You owe Trixie!” Trixie blurted without thinking. “You have everything that Trixie wanted and you never even had to try! I worked so hard and…and…it’s not fair!”
Rainbow Dash flared her wings angrily at the slander that she never had to work to get where she was but instead pressed Trixie on something else. “So what, that’s your excuse for thinking that I somehow owe you? For somepony who’s always bragging about how you managed to make it big without any help, you sure seem to feel entitled to get whatever you want! You can’t have it both ways!”
Trixie furtively flinched and started to slink down. Rainbow rubbed her temples, trying to ward off a headache she knew was coming. “Look….that stuff you did to Twilight? That was cruel. I don’t mean ‘stuff dumb little foals say to each other on the playground because they don’t know any better.’ I mean, vile. I don’t care if you were jealous of Twilight or afraid that she was ‘stealing me,’ nothing gives you an excuse to talk that way to her. Nothing.” She snarled, then stomped her hoof as she tried to control her anger. “That she still wants to see if we can somehow salvage our friendship makes her, like, a hundred times cooler than you.”
“S-she does?” Trixie asked nervously.
Dash nodded. “Yeah…Twilight says she doesn’t want our friendship to be over because of what happened. She feels guilty because she thinks her friendship with me ruined the one you and I had.” She narrowed her eyes. “She’s smart, but that’s a load of horseapples. You did that yourself Trixie. Nopony else.” Trixie flinched and looked down.
“I…I didn’t want to be alone…” She mewled softly.
“Well, look where you’ve ended up.” Rainbow put her hooves on her hips. “You brought yourself here Trixie. Even before I got a hunk of rock around my neck calling me an Element of Harmony, you knew how important being loyal to my friends was to me. And you tried to make me choose between you and them, knowing how much it would hurt me. You acted horribly and hid behind me, trying to break up me and my friends. I’m not gonna forget that Trixie.”
“I—I—” Trixie swallowed, her jaw wobbling as she said the two words she practically never said, at least not with any sincerity: “I’m…sorry…”
“Yeah, you are.” Rainbow Dash snapped angrily. Then she deflated. “I’m sorry.”
Of all the things Trixie expected to hear from Rainbow Dash, this wasn’t by far the least likely. “Y-you are?” She felt a faint glimmer of hope.
“Yeah…I’m sorry that you have this…this just completely wrong way of looking at things.” Rainbow said, once again shattering Trixie’s expectations. “I’m going to be a Wonderbolt…but I’m gonna do it without trampling on ponies along the way, or abandoning my friends. If you’re intent on making it big, try it my way. Maybe we can talk; I’ll even try to help. But if you keep going the way you’ve been…then this is where we part ways for good.”
Trixie was silent. After a moment Rainbow Dash realized that she was trying to speak, but could only move her mouth. No sound seemed to be coming out. Trixie had to try several times before she could get out a single word: “Why?”
Rainbow deflated further. “Because as stupid and bitter and nasty as you’ve been…you’re still a friend. We used to have a lot of fun together before you completely lost it. And I guess I just hate the idea of giving up on that. I’m a lot of things, but not a quitter.” She paused. “Right now, the only thing you’ve got going for you is my word to Twilight that we’d try to work this out and the fact that you actually gave a flying feather about what happened to Dinky…not that I don’t want to kick your rump about that, by the way.” Trixie flinched. “But what happens now is up to you. You can either leave town now and never come back. I won’t go chasing you…but that’ll be the end of it.” Dash took a breath. “Or…you can come back to town. Apologize, and I mean really apologize, take your lumps…and then we’ll see how things go from there. What do you want to do? Do you want to have a shot at being friends or not?”
Once again, Trixie had trouble speaking. Her mouth would form shapes but it was if she couldn’t command her lungs to speak them. Finally, after what seemed like forever, Trixie managed to choke out the hardest word she had ever had to say.
“Yes.”

Hmmm... This must be what Zecora meant by tweaking the timeline for the better; this Trixie might not be as nuts as the one in the Twilightverse.
Okay so she is giving Trixie the choice she didn't give Gilda. Makes sense.
Pretty much throughout this story every comment has been about hating Trixie (Which is good because she was supposed to be a hated character, so well done to you there.) However, in one fell swoop here you have managed to reverse those feelings. Now I want Trixie to succeed, I want her to become a better pony and a better friend. Hate has turned to hope in a single chapter.
Well done my fine sir, well done indeed.
Now that was an intense chapter...
A really heartwarming chapter, kudos for you.
1688500
Blame Twilight.
1688500
Twilight didn't intervene about Gilda. Also, Celestia's teachings might have changed Rainbow's views on that kind of thing.
1688579
Meh, I'll give Twilight most the credit. Rainbow didn't seem to learn anything from Celestia. Too hard headed.
Giant moth Ditzy is an adorable mental image.
1688492 Twilightverse? You mean canon? At any rate, Trixie's showing up again in the next episode, so we'll see how nuts she still is then. (Considering how many images of her there were in Ponyville in that one screenshot, I'm guessing very).
1688508 Well, he managed to do a good job of pulling it off, but we all knew this was going to happen, ever since Trixie's drunken ramblings in Cloud Kicker's flashback attributed her cutie mark to the first Sonic Rainboom (unless I've misinterpreted Chapter 10). That first Rainboom affirmed that the Mane Six were destined to be very close friends, and perhaps even affirmed that they would be the bearers of the Elements. If Trixie's cutie mark is attributed to the Rainboom, then this either shoehorns Trixie into their circle of friends or cheapens the significance of that event.
1688658 There a few other typos, though only a few. The moth one is the most interesting one, though.
Either barreled into or barreled her way into. There was one other, but I forgot where and what it was... Second read-through, didn't find it. I'm beginning to think I imagined it.
Oh well, I'm not his proofreader. I shouldn't try to be anyway.
Short chapter and god knows I hate that kind of cliffhangers.
Hooray, Trixie is going to try to grow up and be a decent friend! It's going to be a long, tough road for her, but I think she can do it, if Rainbow believes in her.
1398311 You rock! Woohoo
ahead
Well, looks like Celestia's teaching has rubbed off on Rainbow.
There should probably be a comma after "Apologize"
This was a great chapter, Depy, Twilight, Rainbow, and Trixie, the more characters in a chapter the better I say!
So Rainbow is this universe's Pinkie Pie?
1689355
More like trying to run away from Rainbow Dash is an exercise in futility.
. . . Doen't put Trixie any lower on my "Want to punch" list.
Still, curious to see where this goes. Once again, good work mate.
1689451
And running from me isn't?
GET OWNED TRIXIE!
Good to see her showing some regret though.
Is this fic almost over? If so, are you going to do more with the Dashverse? Please say yes.
1689478
We shall see after Saturday. I want to see what the return of Trixie offers us canon-wise.
1689509
Yes to both. The next update will be after this weekend's episode. Let's see how Trixie acts in the show.
Wow, from disliked antagonist to downtrodden side-character. You have done well at changing my feelings for this pony over the last to chapters. I'm still not sure if I want her to fit in with the Mane Six, but she can stay in Ponyville for now, as far as I'm concerned.
That ending is the perfect set up for a multiple choice ending. Remove the Last word of this chapter, and its the perfect set up
1689568
Yay!
Bless you Trinary
1689092 Fluttershy, but she didn't help much.
On another note, it occurs to me that the scene of Ditzy entering the hospital would be difficult to take seriously if this story had an animated adaptation. Try to imagine her barging into the hospital and demanding to see her daughter with those derpy eyes.
1689451 Why didn't Trixie just like...trap RD in telekinesis or slam her head first into a wall or something to get away?
Also, this confrontation with Trixie doesn't seem like it would actually accomplish anything. She is going with it because she so badly doesn't want to be alone but her points still stand valid thus making it so she can't change. Others are born better than her and she will never amount to more than a hill of beans compared to the walking history makers around her. Trixie is doomed to be utterly unnoticed at worst and work herself to death for recognition at best compared to ponies like RD that had life handed to them on a silver platter.
I've seen many stories with Trixie that follow this version where she feels overshadowed and that life is unfair to explain her behavior in a sympathetic sense. But I have never seen a single story that actually invalidates her stance. Rather stories will simply go with 'Hey we have it easier than you but we don't act like dicks about being superior so it's okay! Be friends maybe?'
Is the moral supposed to be something other than Trixie being wrong about the sheer doucheynes of life? If so what is the actual moral or lesson that she should learn?
Obviously from an outside perspective (for example I'm going to focus on her vs. Twi) Twilight was born winning the...i don't know, genetic maybe, magic? lottery of having incredible amounts of magic and potential for intellect. However despite this she is very humble, friendly, and overall not deserving of hate to be aimed at her. But, trying to think inside the universe of the story things would be different than IRL. Compared to the real world inborn potential in Equestria would have a much greater impact on ones life since magic exists (for example no other pony no matter how much they trained could perform a sonic rainboom as shown by how it was thought to be a myth, or how Trixie could study books until her eyes fell out and never hold a candle to Twilight).
tl;dr
If it is agreed that ponies who are born with superb gifts are undeserving of hate based on their 'luck of the draw' but Trixie is correct in her view of life being unfair in it's uneven handouts of said gifts, then what would be the correct way for her to act/view her relationships with others instead of her current, rather destructive views. Should she accept her position as 'less'? If so would there be reason to try to push herself for anything other than the mediocre?
In case you couldn't guess, yes this is something that resonates with me personally, but I would think it would to anyone at some level that has ever met someone who was effortlessly good at something that they must work hard to be okay at.
1690057
Until you realize one thing. Ditzy's eyes uncross when she gets serious.
IF YOU CAN READ THIS YOU ARE GOD lol if you can't read this you have horrible eyesight
1690430
Ditzy: I can read it just fine!
1690441 what does the entire comment say then
1690454
IF YOU CAN READ THIS YOU ARE GOD
if you can't read this you have horrible eyesight
your missing a word
trollio
1690518 read this comment if you dare
yes there are actual words there
1690786 Sort of. Gilda did make her cry about halfway through the episode, and she later told Pinkie Pie that throwing Gilda a party might not be such a good idea. The incident did fully convince Pinkie Pie that Gilda was a terrible gryphon, but other than that, she didn't really do much (not unlike in this story, but that's not relevant).
Oh, and yes, I know what Dashverse Cloud Kicker did. Two whole chapters were devoted to it. Kind of hard not to notice.
Thanks for updating this today. I just learned that my dads house burned down with all my things in it. Thank Faust no one got hurt.
1690297
Well, the walking history makers you're talking about, particularly Twilight and Rainbow Dash, certainly do have prodigious natural gifts, but they also work very hard to develop those talents to their maximum potential. In fact, I don't even think that she's portrayed as that much 'lesser' as you seem to think. Look back at the depictions of her shows, and it's obvious that she does have considerable talent in her chosen profession. Yes, she's worked hard and struggled to be as good as she is, but the point doesn't seem to be that she should be humble and gracious before her genetic superiors, and she's hardly locked into the destiny of being a 'hill of beans'.
Trixie isn't a constant distant second to Twilight for the role of Equestria's sorceress supreme, nor is she even trying to be. She wants to be a famous stage magician, and as I mentioned before, has the ability to become one. In this case, her doucheyness really is the only thing holding her back, because her self-centered worldview prevents her from connecting with her audience. She needs to eat a big fat slice of humble pie, not for the sake of 'learning her place' or anything like that, but so that she can stop acting like she's the be-all and end-all of everything. If she can see beyond her own need for self-gratification and reach out toward other ponies more, she'll find it easier to give her audience what they want, and be a better showmare for it. Then she'll have a much easier time getting the fame and recognition that she's worked so hard for.
That's my take on it, anyway.
1690297
Well, I imagine Trixie's telekinesis only lasts for so much of a range. There's no guarantee that she'd even make it out of sight before it faded.
And as for slam Rainbow Dash into a wall, that should be obvious - she doesn't want to hurt Rainbow Dash.
I've yet to see a single other magician in Canon!Equestria. We know that there are magicians in this universe, of course, thanks to Trixie's backstory, but come on, give her some credit: she's still young.
Point being that imagine the kind of skill it has to take to wow an audience with magic in a nation were fully a third of the population casts spells every single day of their lives. It's the rough equivalent of going to the Sahara and impressing the Bedouin with their own sand.
1691385 I like your take on what Trixie's true problem is, and what her solution is. The only thing I would disagree on is the hard work portrayed by characters like Twi and RD. What I mean is that although in their adult lives they are shown studying/ training like a boss (although perhaps not in RD's case, more on that later), in their adolescence they showed enormous ability with little to no 'hard work'. I'll try to elaborate on what makes me view it that way.
Twilight in this universe had the depths of her magical potential shown, not through careful study and practice of a difficult spell. But rather by getting startled and exploding into a magic prodigy. Meanwhile RD was a small competitive filly that was motivated simply by the need to show up a couple of bullys into doing one of the most important things in equestrian history.
Focusing on Twilight for a moment, she exemplifies this the most in my mind as although her studies are why she has a wide array of spells, it is though shear dumb luck that she was born with more magical potential (or a bigger mana pool) than everypony else. RD in the similar situation. In the show they state she practices new tricks often. Yet while other ponies must shurly practice day and night to get into the wonderbolts she spends more time napping if the show is to be believed, and yet she still has the best chance of getting in (only reason she isn't is because Celectia wonderbolt blocked her).
As for Trixie I'm not sure where you get the view that she actually possesses much skill at her trade. I might have missed or forgotten something along the way but I don't recall her being mentioned as very successful. Maybe not a failure but that just builds into my statements about the inescapable mediocrity.
Oooh~ I hope everything goes well for her!
1691769 Sorry to post twice but I didn't see RDD's post until after I made the first one.
Ya I guess it does make sense that she wouldn't want to hurt RD. I guess I was thinking in cartoon physics where a bash to the head just means some stars around the head and a dopey expression. I should have thought that this fic is in a more 'realistic' Equestriadl.dropbox.com/u/31471793/FiMFiction/emoticons/misc_Fluttershy.png
I'm going to have to disagree with this sentiment because she seems to be the same age range as the other characters and yet cannot even be compared to the mane cast in terms of accomplishment. If life is a race (and considering their is an invisible expiration timer I would say it is) then she is losing.
I guess I cant find fault in that logic. But in cannon she never really shows herself as being able to cast anything besides levitation and a color changing spell. Hardly...spellbinding stuff

See, you say that, but the crowd was apparently eating it up (oh, also, don't forget that Rarity's hair also hat rat-tails sticking out of it, and she later conjures some roses, so she can apparently also conjure stuff), if their "oohs" and "ahs" are anything to go by. Remember that we saw very little of her actual magic show. But even if that's all she can do, you'd be surprised how much you can accomplish with almost nothing
Say, one ball, and one cup:
(this is by far my favorite magic trick, ever)
1691866 She isn't as successful as she wants to be because she isn't very good at the presentation side. Her act isn't very good when she's devoting more energy toward boasting about herself than entertaining the audience. If you look at the tricks she pulls off when she and Rainbow Dash are challenging each other, though, it's clear that she has the skill that would allow her to put on a great show, if she could just stop bragging long enough to actually do it. It's a classic case of "show, don't tell", and her mediocrity is only as inescapable as her need for constant self-aggrandizement.
1691756 As opposed to being a bitch to anyone or everyone there behind RD's back? Actually, your question was whether any of Rainbow's friends had seen Gilda's true nature before, and Fluttershy certainly. Although... I don't like basing my argument on this sort of technicality, so I guess I can concede that the connection between Fluttershy being worried about what Gilda might do and knowing what she's like might be a bit flimsy.
Nice to see you've been paying attention to our comments. You give the right mix of story here. Some authors go too original a way and end up causing controversy between readers, others don't give enough development for such and end up being faulted for it. You do neither.
Alternate ending: Trixie teleports away without learning anything.
1692077 I guess you are right about her ability in this story and cannon. I suppose I let me view of her abilities get colored by all the other stories that focus on her. An example would be 'Bug in the big city' where the only way Trixie can impress a crowd is by using a spell (that was accidently forced on her) to copy Twilights spells. In other words even when portrayed sympathetically she is usually portrayed as being worthy of a foals birthday party at best (another example would be Pinkie Pie phyciatrist). So I viewed her in this story as that same level of 'wow you suck' magic skill.

Might be part of the problem. I try to go into every fic only approaching it with ideas built up from the show, and not letting any of the fanfics I've read (or written) influence my opinions.
