For some inexplicable reason, Sollux Captor from the Homestuck Universe winds up magically bound to Rarity's back and incapable of coming off. Now it's up to Rarity's friends to find a way to separate the two and get Sollux back home, before they do something that they might regret. Like, say, becoming close friends.

To save her sister and her faithful student, Celestia herself must travel into the ancient tunnels beneath the ruined castle in the Everfree Forest. She, and the guards who accompany her, must face the dark, twisting corridors. Still, what was Luna and Twilight's purpose at the old castle? Why were they unable to return of their own accord?

And what watches Celestia from beyond the light's edge?

Walking around with Pinkie Pie now, listening to her brain cogs turn as she thinks about rainbow dash, there marefriendship and how she feels about the whole thing.

Your name is KARKAT VANTAS. You're about to play a game with your, uh, "friends" called SGrub, which was coded by SOLLUX CAPTOR, a "friend" of yours. Speaking of Sollux, you're going to connect to him as his SERVER PLAYER very soon. Though before you can, another one of you're "friends" NEPETA LEIJON tries to troll you. What does she want? Well, you might as well answer her.

Wow, that was a big mistake on your part.

Author's Note: This is a Homestuck and My Little Pony: Friendship is Not an Emotion Magic crossover fanfiction. Though I'm caught up to the most recent page, I'm a bit iffy on the canon. So, if you spot anything that needs tweaking while you read, please don't hesitate to tell me and I'll fix it as soon as I can! This is set in the pre-retcon timeline, but that's not very important to this story. All criticism and advice is welcome. Other than that, enjoy the story!

Also, at the end of every chapter there'll be an authors note that briefly explains Alternian vocabulary.
