//------------------------------// // Blue Pill // Story: Poniocracy Side Stories // by sunnypack //------------------------------// Morpheus Called, He Wants His Lines Back Twilight saw the big fluffy teddy bear holding a bottle of sake before David did. “David?” “Yes?” “Are you seeing what I’m seeing?” “No. I don’t talk about potentially real things with hallucinations.” “I’m not a hallucination!” “Says the talking purple unicorn.” They both leant back against the wall as the teddy bear exploded, showering them both with alcohol, confetti and a vague assortment of coloured stuffing. David leant against Twilight. “You know, I take it back. You’re not a hallucination, you are no way as crazy as this pile of shizzca.” He hugged her hesitantly. Twilight twitched but otherwise endured the suddenly clingy human. “David?” “Hmm?” “Why are you hugging me?” “Shh, don’t question it.” Twilight fell silent as snaking rainbows exploded into fireworks. They both watched the display with a mixture of wonder… and a little fear. David felt Twilight’s hooves gently clasp around his frame. “David?” “Yes?” “I’m scared.” “Me too.” All around them snakes began eating at their tails and the universe tore itself apart. Because it’s funny like that.
