//------------------------------// // The Comprehension // Story: My Logical Pony // by Tito Vito //------------------------------// Pinkie Pie and Twilight quickly turn to face Princess Celestia as she charged into SugarCube Corner with more haste and less grace than usual. Pinkie understood the situation immediately and addresses Princess Celestia accordingly. "Princess Luna! It looks like you have the same problem as me and Pinkie Pie here!" Pinkie Pie said with wide eyes at the Princess. "How in the hay did you know that we got switched?" Princess Celestia ordered that she'd have the conversation with the ponies in Pinkie's room. As they climbed the stairs to the room, Twilight decided to teleport the rest of the way. Pinkie felt slightly jealous of her horn being used but continued to bounce up the stairs anyway. As they reached the top of the stairs Twilight was staring at Gummy as he gnawed at something he thought was food. Twilight's heart grew heavy. She'd almost forgot about how much she'd loved Gummy's silly endeavors. "Oh Gummy," Twilight sighed as she walked over to the little alligator. "That will not serve as sufficient sustenance. Head downstairs and enjoy something actually edible- huh?" Gummy walked casually away from Twilight towards Pinkie Pie with the cake printed blanket still in his jaws. "Gummy are you listening to me? You should go downstairs!" Gummy never really paid anyone, who wasn't Pinkie Pie, any mind. He simply waddled over to Pinkie. Pinkie Pie insisted that Gummy did as Twilight asked, so Gummy dropped the blanket and went about his business. Twilight felt slightly jealous of Pinkie Pie's connection with Gummy and knew that this Switcharoo had to be reversed sooner than the spell prescribed. Pinkie Pie trotted over next to Twilight to give Princess Celestia full attention. "So Princess Luna I presume," Twilight began. She looked into the eyes of the princess with hope. "do you have any idea how this has happened?" Princess Celestia blushed brightly, and then suddenly... Time froze around Pinkie Pie. "...Princess Luna? Pinkie Pie? Whats going on?" Pinkie stared quizzically at the flustered Pterippus for a while and had an epiphany. Pinkie Pie can stop time?? This is impossible! No... Actually this helps allow me to understand a few things about her! she always was able to think of so much to say so quickly and even sometimes figure out what I was going to say before I even had the chance to think of the words! she doesn't do it all the time so maybe this proves she doesn't have control over it when it happens. I had nothing to do with the stopped time so it must be something that happens naturally to her. I wonder why she hasn't mentioned it to anypony before. Ugh! I am losing focus again! Okay so Luna and Celestia are switched and when the subject on the reason why we are switched comes up, Luna blushed. Got It! "Well actually Pinkie, the reason we are switched around is because-" Princess Celestia begins but gets interrupted by Pinkie Pie talking at a million miles per hour. "You are still a little jealous of your sister and so you went into the Canterlot Library to find a book about switching bodies so you could assume the role of your sister for a while but you couldn't find it and then gave up looking for in the Canterlot Library and went on to a different library in ponyville." *GASP* Pinkie Pie drew in air. "So you went to my home while I was sleeping to search for the book there but instead of searching through all the books in my library you decided to check my dreams to see if I had read the spell so you could find it faster and when you found the spell you were looking for, you eagerly cast the spell while you where still in my head causing whomever you had in mind to switch with you!" Pinkie Pie smiled widely, heavily panting. For a reason she couldn't explain, she felt her hunch was right. Almost as if to her heart, if there was any other explanation to this occurrence, she would feel sad. "That was Fun!" Pinkie thought out loud as Princess Celestia gawked at her. "What? Its only a hunch!" "Pr-precisely." Princess Celestia was clearly impressed by Pinkie's hunch being spot on. Luna doesn't spend much time with Pinkie, so she had no idea that Pinkie was capable of such a feat. Twilight only glared with envy. "Well why were you dreaming about me Twilight?" Twilight asked Pinkie Pie. Princess Celestia chimed in, "No offence Pinkie Pie, but when We enter dreams if We are not simply observing, the dreams tend to be... silly. Nonsense if you will." Twilight Huffed, "So I'm nonsense, huh?" "Please don't be sad Pinkie! Nonsense is what makes you, you! Plus, Nonsense can make the best fun! Am I right?!" Pinkie was trying to cheer Twilight up. Twilight's face lit up on account of Pinkie's enlivenment. Twilight felt happy that Pinkie could easily have that effect on her. "You're right Twilight. I am sorry." Twilight didn't really think about how much fun it was to be so random, but was quickly reminded by Pinkie Pie's rant. "This is the reason we have come before you. We did not know which to speak with to learn the counteractant for Our dilemma." Princess Celestia looked relieved to know she had found them both at the same place, at the same time. "Princess Luna, I believe the spell is irreversible besides simply waiting for the spell's time to wear off. I think it would be best if we just capitalized this time to enjoy our hooves in each other's horseshoes, instead of beating our heads against the walls trying to undo a spell that has an expiration point." Twilight loved having the vocabulary required to speak clearly and efficiently. She felt a happiness brew when she knew what she said was a wise proclamation. "Well then, how long will this affect us?" Princess Celestia asked. "Only about two more days actually." Twilight Replied. "Not much conflict can arise, I assume, because we seem to have each other's skills and memories. We'd only need to live as we would normally live, as if we were each other. Where did Twilight go?" Twilight and Princess Celestia scanned the room for Pinkie Pie but to no avail. "Why would she just leave?" "That is alright, Pinkie Pie. We are sure Twilight already understands the situation fully.", Princess Celestia said. "We shall also be taking Our leave. We are sorry We had gotten you involved into Our trouble." Twilight understood Princess Celestia's concern, so she thought Princess Celestia needed some reassurance. "Not at all Princess Luna. I have found that living as Twilight can be actually a little fun and even enlightening at some points." Princess Celestia simply smiled at Twilight, opened her wings, and flew out the window without another word. "Now where in the world did Twilight go?"
