Twilight and Rainbow have been drinking buddies for quite some time now. Every Friday, they go out to a bar for a couple of hours and forget the troubles of the day.

But on this particular Friday, Rainbow's being even more of an ass than usual. So Twilight does what any sane pony would have done in this situation:

Smacks her friend in the face as hard as she can with a dictionary.

Rated Teen for language and a very drunk Rainbow Dash.

Twilight has been to the human world and met her counterpart there. Something about the encounter is bothering her, though. More specifically, something about the other Twilight.

With the help of her friends, Twilight does a bit of soul-searching and arrives at a conclusion that she may not like.

A few hours after saving the Friendship Games, Sunset Shimmer and her good friend Twilight Sparkle are relaxing on the CHS lawn. The two are so close that Sunset finally feels like she can ask a question that's been on her mind for a while.

"Can I go home?"

Remember when Sunset yelled at Twilight for putting everyone's "lives in danger?" Well, Rarity does, and she's a bit confused—after all, how could their lives be in danger when it's quite literally impossible for humans to die?
