Equestrian Fanfiction

Three days

It’s been three days. Any word on DarkSparkle? I tried asking Mom and the usual crowd, but they don’t know a thing... or prefer not to tell me. And InItForTheShipping s cut out behind that storm.

Sorry I didn’t write earlier, but I just finished dealing with the local threat. All’s fine now, but I hope I never have to go through this again. Maybe I’ve just gotten jaded, but I’d like an year to pass by without a reality morphing crisis :/ And I still have Blueblood to babysit... The moment the sirens learned he was an equestrian prince they won’t stop hitting on him.

Please tell me she’s fine...

LightSparkle

Well...

She sent me a scroll saying that she’ll be away for a few more days and not to worry (and tell you not to worry in case you asked me).

TrueSparkle

At least she hasn’t lost her geekiness so that’s promising. Did you write back?

LightSparkle

I tried, but Discord can’t find her and Spike couldn’t reach her (or so he says). I’m not sure how okay the little guy is. He keeps on joking as if nothing happened, but that attack shook him up quite a lot.

Ember was furious as well... and then she told Thorax, who came on a surprise visit to try and cheer spiel up... and spotted PaintDrop’s boyfriend and... well, let’s just say the mess is averted now.

Heh. It’s actually nice we can talk about such stuff again. During the attacks Nopony could even think of jokes. I hope the calm is for good this time.

TrueSparkle

Once I get the okay from Mom I’ll go see you and bring my magitech. Thanks to Blueblood the sirens told me a few interesting details about windigos... such as you could trap them in water. That’s why they never attacked anything in the sea. Next time we meet I’m teleporting him to a bubble at the bottom of the ocean!

LightSparkle

Not a bad idea.

How’s Simile? The last few times she PMed me she was drunk and depressed. :(

TrueSparkle

I honestly have no idea... She’d be all devastated and mopey, then head off to a club where she’d be the heart of the party, before getting home in tears. I swear, good thing that Blueblood’s here. He’s had to calm her down I don't know how many times. I do too, but it’s obviously different if the listener is male.

I hope she’s do8mg better, but she has serious issues with her father, and trust me I understand her. I’ve done some seriously scary things to impress my mom. (Not that there is any impressing her :/) At least now she says she’s proud of my achievements (whatever they might be), but Simile’s Dad... Hell, he can’t even find time to spend with her. Sometimes I think that Equestria is so messed up that things like the Windigo distract from the main problems.

LightSparkle

Too true. Mist of the serious issues happen because of miscommunication, I think. I mean take us and Simile. We all tried to take over a world, all because of stupid notions. Without getting too philosophical, we are our own greatest threat.

Sometimes I think it’s because we’re single. I mean, I haven’t heard of anyone married causing havoc. Possibly Sombra is the exception. (Yes, I’ve been binging on MC fics while waiting to get news from DarkSparkle.)

Just look at LyraHands, CodeFilly, and MightyDragon. None of them tried to take over anything. Oh, and InItForTheShipping, of course.

TrueSparkle

I hope that idiot didn’t do anything stupid this time. What do you think?

LightSparkle

No idea, to be honest :( Spike keeps on saying that everything is fine. And on the surface it appears to be. Three days without attacks... thought three days without DarkSparkle either. The rest of the girls are busy as Tartarus with their things, and the Princesses... and being Princesses. :)

TrueSparkle

Technically I’m a princess too, you know. Maybe one day I’ll get my pair of wings? No idea what I’ll do with them. I’m with Discord that flying is nothing but inefficient teleportation.

The girls here send you a big “hi”, by the way. RD has become a huge fan of herself. (I never thought I’d say that non-figuratively.) I dread the day those two meet.

LightSparkle

Hopefully this is all over soon and I get to visit you again.

It feels like ages ago. More important, I hope we defeat the Windigo before LyraHands’ foals appear. Call me sentimental, but I don’t want them to be born while it isn’t safe.

TrueSparkle

Just look at us :) We sound like a bunch of old mares, talking about the good old days when it was safer and the misters we had to thought we’re more understanding... Then again, the Friendship Beam used to work until now...

LightSparkle

DarkSparkle mentioned something about that. Something about us focusing on the wrong thing and of course this and naturally that.

I think it’s the teleportation capability the Windigo had. Yes, a few ponies claimed they saw the beam hit him, but that’s no guarantee it actually happened. If only they’d let me I could go back in time and see exactly what happened. I’ll even take pictures if that’s what it takes to convince everypony else.

Can you ask Princess Celestia to allow me?

TrueSparkle

Sure, why not? Right after she answers a few questions of mine. I don’t think it’ll be that hard. Well, it might take a few decades, but you don’t care when it happens, right?

LightSparkle

Argh! That’s a terrible joke! And you’re bad at telling it! Shoo, get back to Blueblood and your EqF curation. :P

TrueSparkle

Bleh! PlayedPiece and RRBB are doing fine. They won’t miss me much. Besides with the amount of fics being submitted either of them can handle it on her own. Even with this calm ponies are scared.

LightSparkle

And with good reason. Not everypony is like us.

Anyway, must go and clean a mess Spike did. Talk to you again soon (sooner if I have any news.)

TrueSparkle

Take care.
