Having a desktop pet can be relaxing to watch, but the Twilight Sparkle pet is a bit more unique as it's capable to perform conversations with its user. It's a learning pet, but the way it performs could leave some people to believe that this Twilight is actually alive.

But it's still just a program... right?

Even though this is an Anon story, their name will be changed to Antoni for the sake of my sanity and to allow both genders to be interpreted (Antonio = Male) (Antonia = Female)

TheFlint44 has also made a Chinese translation (中文译文) of the story for your pleasure.

This story is a sequel to Roar

Friendship can only go so far, and after one of those friends goes far enough to take her own life, it leaves the others depressed and forlorn. A chain of six, shattered by one link, until the other five can't even look at one another without thinking about what happened.

Twilight spends her days in a dark Trottingham apartment, chased by memories and haunting visages of what happened. What went wrong. What she could have done.

A visit from Fluttershy may be just what she needs... or another reminder of her failure. Their failure.

Celestia's world has been upended. Day and night have been separated far more than merely the distance between the sun and moon. With Luna given over to the corruption of Nightmare Moon, Equestria has had its first major shakeup since its liberation from the chaotic tyranny of Discord, yet the wounds of Luna's pain run deeper than anything Discord could have done. Ponies have turned against ponies, and the majority of unicorn, pegasus, and earth pony hearts have been twisted against their bat pony brethren. What could a sole alicorn, one who relied on her sister's insight in difficult situations, possibly do to remain ready to lead? Mortal advisors can come and go, but none would be as wise as a being with a thousand years of experience.

Except there is one possibility. A presence which has made itself felt. One that promises that it knows her deeply. One that promises its own rewards, for all time.

Flight Camp was a life-changing event for Cloud Kicker. Her horrible fight with Rainbow Dash forever changed things between them, and drove a wedge between Cloud and Fluttershy.

But what if that had never happened? What if Cloud and Fluttershy had stayed together? How would the lives of the three friends be different? What other changes would ripple across Equestria as a result of that one event? Cloud and Fluttershy might be happily married, but how would that change the lives of their friends? Would Rainbow Dash go down a different path to joining the Wonderbolts? How would Rarity's life change if she never met Fluttershy until she moved to Canterlot?

Where would they be today if they'd traveled down the road not taken?
