Step Eleven: Unwillingly Deal With Changes


Many years later run into that annoying mare Twilight Sparkle at the library again. Have her stalk you for days until you finally agree to hang out with her. You won’t want to but she’ll keep bribing you with learning how to jump into books with magic and offering you to stay in her tower home that’s filled with books. 

Reconnect with those stupid ponies Twinkleshine, Lemon Hearts and Minuette at a local donut place because Twilight Sparkle forces you to. Deal with the ‘Princess of Friendship’ meddling in your daily life for weeks until you are lured into some party with your old friends, the librarian Multifarious Tomes, the bookseller Monograph Hive and of all things your sister Jamocha Prism.

End up venting your frustration about Twilight Sparkle leaving you at the lowest point in your life when you could have used a friend. Have Twilight Sparkle show you that the ponies at the party are all willing to be your friend and spend the rest of the evening talking to them and getting to know them. Stay in touch with all of your friends at the party the next couple of years and even Twilight Sparkle and Lyra Heartstrings when they occasionally visit town. 

Secretly move into Twilight Sparkle’s tower home as she said you could stay there and read as many of the books as you like. Besides, you will kind of be tired of paying rent on that property falling apart at the edge of town anyway. That money should be saved for better things, like goals you’ve been setting for yourself to become a better pony.
