At the tail end of my last diary entry, I promised to describe how I put the Cowardly and Worthless Trixie back in her place.

I just don’t know what went wrong.

Author’s Note: This is the first chapter where I have to leave stuff out so I don’t give away which story this plotline actually belongs to.

Update: Not anymore! Stuff that used to be left out is now in square brackets.

Well, here I am, and I’m still alive.

[Most of this entry is unintelligible. What isn’t is unsuitable for publication. The name “APPLEJACK” in several instances is written with so much force as to tear through the paper.]

It makes absolutely no sense. Why would something like this happen? Is it magic? Because in movies and fairytales, magic can always go backwards, but if this is science...

I have tried to get this entry just right for hours now, struggling in vain to convey the facts without at the same time coming out looking like anything other than a demon incarnate.

But that’s impossible.

The truth must be told, or this world is doomed. In the face of that, even my immense ego doesn’t stand a chance.

This really bugs me, even though I know it's inconsequential · 7:34am Jul 22nd, 2015

Remember Tantabus? Good old Tantabus created by Luna to punish her for the whole Nightmare Moon thing?
So, the word apparently comes from "tantibus" which is allegedly Latin for "nightmare". I say "allegedly" because despite trying quite hard, I have not been able to actually find a reputable source that confirms there even is a Latin word such as "tantibus".
And, no, Google Translate is no reputable source.

Some thoughts on Electric Sheep · 3:22am Jul 13th, 2015

After seeing yesterday's episode, which was both astounding in its bravery in addressing adult issues, and disappointing in distracting from them with what was likely meant as comic relief (not sure), I found myself wondering how Luna's dream in the intro would have ended. This scene, along with Luna's admission and near forfeit towards the end, had the highest impact in my opinion. As the function of the Tantabus was to create nightmares to

I've put out another story starring the Tantabus: http://www.fimfiction.net/story/363882/tantabus-communication-protocol

After shenanigans ensued at the end of the last story, one reporter decides she's not going to accept Luna's explanation for how she had a baby. Which causes problems when said explanation shows up in her dreams.
