The Love Icosahedron Incident of 2974 · 4:18am Jan 8th, 2019
...was exactly what it says on the tin.
It turns out that there are some... issues... when the Alicorn of Love goes through puberty and the associated hormone-driven magic surges in the middle of a major city. My, that was fun to keep under wraps.
(There's now a special "In Case of Princess House" on a suitable remote island in the Great Celestial Ocean, because it would be even more fun to keep under wraps if, say, the Alicorn of Lust should turn up one day.)
Everypony involved in love with five others simultaneously? Goodness. At least the love geometry stayed at three dimensions.

Nopony had better explain mesh networking to Nightmare Heartache, that's all I'm sayin'.
(As a side note, while reading this comment I accidentally misread my "In Case of Princess House" and now I'm imagining the Alicorn of Healing as abrasive, limping, and compulsively snarky. I may need this.)

I've been in Ranma 1/2 groups (when I was young and psycotic) where the relationship maps started out at...madness and went from there. (The only thing I can remember is that they had to use blue when it was Boy Ranma, red when it was Girl Ranma, arrows and iconography to suggest in what way one character liked another and possible changes for the future, and they also included time travel and alternate universes. Say what you will about Avatar:The Last Airbender shippers, they don't deal in time travel. Mostly. I think.

"Doctor House is..."
"An alicorn, yes. Ascended when he diagnosed the entire ER with just a lolipop and one question per patient."
"...Is it too early to start drinking heavily?"
"It just might be too late."

That's what the other version of Star Swirl's Evening Before The Morning After is for.
Reading this comment chain by itself is hilarious. Say of that what you will.

So much yes.
