Equestria is a wonderful, magical world, only occasionally threatened by big bad creatures that want to bring chaos to the land. The peaceful ponies have fought them off century after century through the use of magic, diplomacy, and whatever else happened to have seven colors in it.
It has come to the point where when you are a menacing digital shadow, looking over every inch of their pointless, brainless lives, they don't fear you.
They simply don't understand.
Some things you just need a good visage for.

Part of a prequel one-shot series to a much bigger fic, currently in the works. Creepy enough in its own right, I'd bet. The story it connects to... is just too relatable.
Now, if you want a reasonable person's perspective, then by all means - open it up and read.
Same series as Styx Enterprises, Nick and Penny, Vis-a-Vis and Vermillion.
