Twilight Sparkle just can't find enough time in the day. She has to study friendship for the Princess, hang out with her five friends, and juggle her own hobbies and interests besides. But when a novel solution presents itself in the form of an experimental new spell, will it solve her time crunch, or will she be distracted even further?

Twilight Sparkle is immortal. She does not want to be, but it merely was included with her ascension. Now, years after the deaths of all her friends, Twilight feels desperately alone. In order to help herself overcome these feelings of depressions, she creates her own friend, a clone of herself.

Twilight receives another visit from Future Twilight Sparkle, who speaks only in questions. Present Twilight attempts to deduce the reason for her future counterpart's vagueness - and the reason for her visit.
