Tell Your Tale: Baby Critters

This week, the Mane 5 get someone to critter sit with no critter sitting experience.

If you ask me, they got exactly what was coming to them.

Yeah. That they did. Definitely felt sorry for Jazz for being initially out of her depth. Though I also have to respect how she was able to think on her hooves after some initial hiccups.

Of course, I have a hunch that next week's chapter is probably going to cover the Mane 5's end - Like "Just For Sidekicks" and "The Games Ponies Play".

On another note, I LOVED seeing Opaline getting "prank called". Considering the garbage she would be up to if she were able to leave her castle, I would say if anybody deserves the frustration of a "prank call", it's her.

Well, that might've been it for the Nightmare Night episodes. But we may end up having to get used to the new episodes getting released as part of compilations. I mean, it only takes a few seconds to cut the rest of those episodes off in editing software, so if they wanted to, they would've done it by now.

I'm pretty sure this is the third episode TYT has done of trying to look after out-of-control babies or something similar. One more, and I think they'll be overdoing it.

So there's one channel that's been reviewing the TYT episodes who hated the fart jokes it's done (yeah, all 2 of them). Something about how none of the other MLP generations ever stooped to that level. He's going to be aghast at the bunny-corn droppings.

There's a pony with plaid hooves.

Likely the result of a hooficure.

Won't be long before I bring that into some of my stories.

Hm, interesting theory.

If Opaline is unable to leave her castle, how did she get Misty?

She can't leave her castle, so she was forced to get creative with her diminished magic. Used it to "reach out" to ponies on the outside to lure them in. Maybe in their dreams or visions she promised them wealth or power if they could find her castle. She needed to have eyes on the outside for when magic returned. Someone who could go places she couldn't.

I have some headcanon theories about what Twilight did when she banished Opaline, and why. Opaline was too strong to be destroyed outright, so Twilight had to use her impressive magic abilities to, essentially, buy Equestria time. Twilight had ruled Equestria for centuries by that point, and the rest of the Mane 6 were long dead. This meant that Twilight, for all of her power, wasn't able to fully use the Magic of Friendship anymore.

The banishing spell Twilight cast on her was the most powerful magic flex in recorded history just on it ls own. But she also bound Opaline to her castle and established a barrier around Equestria so Opaline couldn't find it. Basically, Twilight was the most powerful magic user in history, possessing abilities that far exceeded her hero, Star Swirl the Bearded, and even the Royal Sisters themselves. But the tragedy is that, without her friends, she wasn't strong enough to finish things for good.

Not sure if they've retconned Twilight's lifespan yet. They said she wouldn't outlive her friends.
