"Hello, our dear readers and welcome to the first exciting episode of..."
"Sunny!"
"Moonie!"
"Twily!"
"Q&A!"
Three Maresketeers were sitting at a small table in their dorm room, happily smiling at their lovely audience. And considering there was nopony else in the room, that meant that the audience was actually the readers themselves. Yes, you, the one reading those words. We do realize this is not a visual medium and there are no cameras or such, which is why we would appreciate it if you stretched your imagination and suspension of disbelief a little harder this time.
"You're probably wondering why there's an update this early, or what happened to the twentieth chapter..."
"...or fourth wall..."
"...then worry no longer, the story proper will continue... eventually. But in the meantime, we decided to give a little, ehem, 'service' to our dear, beloved fans and we're making a..."
"Q&A!"
"Why do we always have to yell that together?"
Moondancer shrugged. "Because it's fun?"
Twilight cleared her throat. "Anyway, the rules are simple. You ask us a question in the comment section of this chapter, prefixed with a hashtag #askmaresketeers..."
"This site doesn't support hashtags."
"...and we'll answer it in, uh, eventually. It shouldn't take too long, I think."
"Basically it's like a image-less version of a tumblr blog."
"What's a 'tumblr'?" The two asked. Moondancer rolled her eyes and ignored them.
Shaking that question away, Twilight conjured, you guessed it, a checklist. "Now, let's get a few things straight before we begin..." She donned a pair of reading glasses (which she doesn't need) and ignored Moondancer and Sunset Shimmer groaning. "...first of all, as you can probably tell, this and any other chapter of..."
"Q&A!"
Small, awkward pause later. "...yes, it's entirely non-canon. Nothing that happens here will ever be referenced or have any bearing on the actual plot of the series."
"Unless it's a really lame meta joke."
"There is a plot?"
"In layman’s terms: 'just roll with it'."
Moondancer hummed. "So, since nothing's canon here, does that mean that if I suddenly hug-tackle Sunset and start making out with her right here, right now, none of this will matter and nopony will remember it?"
"Uh, I guess."
"Which means somepony could, in theory, rip out someponies' hoof and bludgeon her with it till she collapses unconscious from agony in a pool of her own blood, and all of that will be retconned the next chapter?"
"Uhh..."
Moondancer smiled sheepishly. "Point taken!"
After a moment passed, Twilight shook her head and continued. "Let's get over some ground rules for asking questions. First of all, no questions about the future of any of the storylines!"
"You don't want spoilers, do you?"
"Second, this is a Sunny, Moonie, Twily..."
"Q&A!"
Pause. "...that, so we won't answer any questions about those six guys in Ponyville or what they're doing."
"And thank heavens for that! There's only so much I can listen about Shining Idiot before I need to barf!"
Twilight coughed. "That also means we won't be able to answer any stuff related to the writer."
"Writers!"
"Right, plural. Well, that about wraps it up! Remember to use the hashtag #askmaresketeers..."
"Again, this site has no hashtag function!"
"...and ask us anything you want. Well, anything as long as it's not too... inappropriate..."
"What she meant to say is, ask us ALL the inappropriate questions you want. We'll be happy to answer them all." She winked.
"SPEAK FOR YOURSELF!"
"Well anyway, bye everpo-, I mean, everybody! See ya next in the chapter of..."
"Q&A!"
The trio waved to the audience and the recording ended.
"Twily, why is our dialogue all colored?"
"Probably to save time and space that would be normally used for narration."
"Isn't tagging every sentence with different color taking a bunch of time, equal to narrating?"
Yes. It is. And now I know.
"...and knowing is half the battle."
Moondancer and Twilight looked at Sunset, confused. "What?"
"I dunno. I just felt... compelled to say that. Weird."
Oh dear.
*dies of laughter*
No worries.
Fair enough.
And with less flame wars.
Fair enough.
OH GOD MY SIDES!
*ears perk up*
*ears fold down and pout* Dammit.
Agreed.
Fair enough.
Right.
HEH!
Indeed.
Now then, questions I may/may not have. *clears throat* #askmaresketeers to all three of you, what would yous say is the weirdest thing that's ever happened to you?
#askmaresketeers
screaming SCREAMING screaming in the dark, in the dark they have made the screams, they come, they feast, they THRIVE they are all around you, they are you and you are them and they feast and the screams ever continue, how did it come to this?
#askmaresketeers
Between the three of you, which will most likely be the last one standing in a free for all fight to the the death?
#askmaresketeers (whether it's supported or not!)
Twilight, does Shining Armor send you letters at all? The way he most certainly didn't in the main canon?
... Well I've been wondering about a supporting character... so I'll give it a shot!
#askmaresketeers
Spike's a child, right? Who takes care of him?
#askmaresketeers Who was the second pony that said "Writers!"? It’s not Sunset’s orange, but a slightly different color. So, who infiltrated you? Also, what’s that creature holing the applause sign? Definitely not a pony, but what else?
Hey there. First time poster longER time reader. :-D
Anyway, I hope this doesn't technically violate the rules but
#askmaresketeers Twilight, do you know your big brother's "Opposite Gender Magnet" seems to work for YOU too?
Anyway, I profusely apologize for wasting your time if this technically violates the rules
#askmaresketeers On a scale from one to ten, how surprised would you be if Sunset turned into a rageing she-demon?
#askmaresketeers -- what is the most awkward thing [sexual (where applicable) and not] each of you have walked in on the others doing?
Also Sunset and Moondancer: how do you feel about Twilight's obliviousness toward stallions?
#askmaresketeers Do any of the girls play anything similar to Dungeons & Dragons?
Has Sunset Shimmer had her first kiss yet?
What event in Moondancer's life has made her so....pervy?
#askmareskeeters : To Sunset and Twilight : You seemed quite upset about being thrown out on a beach lately, how come ?
To everypony : Who came up with the name "Mareskeeters" and how ?
Thanks for your answers !
#askmaresketeers To all three of you, how exactly did the three of you first meet?
#askmareskeeters
To Twibutt and Sunbutt: with Moondancer taking stallions to her bed by the dozens, aren't you afraid that soon there won't be a colt for you who hasn't been "with your friend"? You should act now and put some dibs on while you can.
#askmaresketeers Sunset's and Moondancer's families?
#askmaresketeers
Sunset, as a necromancer, you have some potential to being a excellent zombie horder. (granted I know a nercomancing sorcercer and the feeling is not mutual with that guy. never try to make deals with that guy or it'll backfire less then 10 seconds. sorry I can't say his name. another time for another place) I was wondering how come you didn't burn those annyoing stallions at the beach with some cold flames? Yea there were a lot of witnesses at the beach and could possibly have you having another 'talk' Princess Sunbutt but eh...some piece and quiet could be worth it. Awesome flames btw
Moondancer. You and I could have hug time sometimes. %100 sure it would lead to something else because you're Moondancer
Twilight, If a stallion, nice or nerdy or buff or watever, comes up to you and asks if you want go on a date or go out for drinks, there is a 99% percent chance they've been with moondancer. Just sayin. Praise the Sock
#2cool4hashtags (what, someone had to do it )
To Moondancer: Have you ever managed to get either of the other two to go on a date? I feel like they could really use some help on that front because Twilight is completely oblivious and Sunset is
homicidalinsaneunique.To Twilight: There is a colt in your class named Red Hope. Go ask him if he wants to go on a date with you.
Ok, moving on.
To Moondancer: Have you ever tried hooking up with Celestia?
To Sunset: How many ponies have you killed, and what was the most ridiculous reason you had for killing somepony?
To Moondancer: Have you ever heard of changelings, and if so have you ever given thought to what you could do if you ever ran into one?
#askmareskateers So, Twilight, the first two questions are for you.
1) How do you feel about you brother being an EoH? Excitement, resentment, worry,you're not sure?
2) If you had to pick, who would you prefer to become an alicorn: Sunset or Moondancer?
Sunset Shimmer.
1) What are your thoughts and opinions on the current political situation in Equestria? What work and what near to change?
2) If you had to kill either Twilight or Moondancer, which would you kill?
And finally for Moondancer.
1) Why so much banging? You don't even get to know them first (see the gay couple you thought were twins as reference), or after now that I think about it. So why?
2) If you had to choose one of your finds, either Twilight or Sunset, who would you bang IF on top of that whoever you chose is the only person, regardless of species, you could ever bang from then on? And the other one is doomed to be a virgin forever.
#askmaresketeers Twilight, have you ever been on a date? Cause there are probably a bunch of guys out there who would really like to. Just saying.
#askmaresketeers Who is the 4th new member of the Three Maresketeers and why is she the mane character?
Also am I right in thinking that Twilight is Athos, Sunset is Aramis, and Moondancers is Pathos. Wait I guess that awnsers my first question and Trixi is D'Artagnan.
#askmaresketeers
Are any of you familiar with the multiverse theory? Or, is that not a theory in your world? And, if it is a theory in your universe, would any of you ever like to visit the other universes?
Also: Moondancer, what does it mean when ponies say that ponies bodies don't bend like that when they're talking about your 'extracurricular activities'?
#askmaresketeers
Sunset and Twilight, What are your opinions of your rivaling fanclubs (S.A.S.S) and that that many colts are interested in you?
Moony, what would you say if someone you knew- hypothetically Moon Sky- turned out to be princess Luna and had been hiding this fact from you?
#askmaresketeers
Twilight : I'm asking you a question from Monty Python - What is the air speed velocity of an unladen swallow?
Sunset Shimmer : are you a virgin?
Moon Dancer : My house 10 minutes, I can regenerate so you don't have to worry about hurting me just sit back relax and let out all your deepest, darkest sexual fantasies ( http://darkvslight346.deviantart.com/art/My-OC-for-reviews-533148997?q=gallery%3Adarkvslight346&qo=0 my appereace for her benefit)
#Askmaresketeer
Twilight & Moonie & Sunny: Heard of this yet?
It's a mad world you fillies are living in.
How do you live on day by day? Don't answer with friendship and sex...Those don't count.
Also, when will you have any interest in stallions? (Please note: Stallions, not immature little colts)
I've been dying to have a chance to ship.
*looks around confused* ... Oh, me? LOL!
That won't be a problem. Any natural biological limiters on my imagination were removed quite a while ago... if I ever had any, which I doubt. As for suspension of disbelief, I've never believed in the word impossible, so fire away!
LOL! *Cracks a rib* I'm pretty sure Pinkie Pie already shattered that barrier of reality. Get off my screen Pinkie! Let me rephrase: she's left a permanent, unfixable hole in that barrier of reality... and she knows how to use it... and she's not afraid to... and others are now discovering it.
*Cracks another rib* Fix.... that... (I say between painful laughs).
LOL! Half my ribs are gone now!
1. I thought that adventure was over?... or was it? ... wasn't it? ...
2. LOL, Sunset! His sister's right there next to you! What do you have against the guy?
3. Speaking of which, If Doc is supposed to be Doctor Hooves, WHY THE HAY ISN'T HE TAGGED?!
LOL! If it bothers you so much, why don't you fix it? You've already broken the fourth wall! What's stopping you from going any further?
Well, doesn't that just take the fun out of it?
... ... Moondancer... has problems. Like, she needs some serious therapy. Then again, she'd probably seduce the shrink, male or female, successfully.
... If only all writers were that smart. Seriously, why don't we all do that?
Oh... that's why...
... Okay, I'll let this slide. Since you're narrating, it doesn't really count when you break the fourth wall.
1. Great! With the fourth wall gone, anything can crossover to anything. Thanks a lot, Hasbro, for putting that cheesy line in all our heads! (Somehow I saw it coming)
2. Wait a minute, Sunset... weren't you just complaining about the fourth wall when you started It was, like, your first statement!
*End of Comments*
I loved this, especially exploiting the hole in the fourth wall Pinkie has created. ... *face-palm* Had to skip other chapters just to see this... and I have no regrets! Y'know what? I think I may do this in my fic at some point, like an intermission or just for the fun of it.... hmmm, yes... *Snaps out of day dream* Aaaanyhooo, keep up the good work! Can't wait for the next chapter!
#askmaresketeers
Now, for my questions (BTW, Digit discovered the hole in the wall, and if you read the bio I sent you of him, you'll know where this is going:
To Twilight:
1. Why the hay would you read in a library at night? Haven't you heard the stories?! Or did you finally find a book you decided to skip over? The end is near! ... Well, that didn't take long. Uh, Digit? What are you doing here? Got bored. You know me and adventures. Thanks for setting me up with Lavender, but she isn't really my type. But you should already know that. Not the point! Just... behave. Fine, fine. Yeesh. Hehe, sorry 'bout that.
2. How can you be hanging around Moondancer and not take certain hints?
3. I never knew you could even swear, Miss Perfect. What happened back there in the library, hmm?
4. Why don't you introduce Moony to Pinkie? I'm sure they'll get along. And out of your mane.
To Sunset: Why do you feel the need to always fight someone? (Please don't hit me!) Don't get me wrong, I know how you feel from Chapter 6. Me too. Believe me, I have my fair share of unwanted and undeserved blame. Come to think of it, does it help in getting rid of your pent-up anger?
To Moondancer:
1. Why are you so... what's the word? Quirky? Pervy? Horny? Yes, horny, that's it.
2. How many stallions have you been with? Before you ask, I mean both in total, and at a time (though I'll probably regret asking).
3. Why don't you just get your own room instead of making it uncomfortable for Sunny and Twily?
4. Why don't you try to hook them up? I mean, Twilight's socially awkward (no offence Twily) and Sunset's... well... Evil? Homicidal? A raging she-demon? Okay, you're taking that hit on your own Digit because I didn't say that out loud. I was gonna say... special. Yeah, that's it (again, no offense... for what it's worth). Are you just trying to make life difficult for them, or is it just the way you are?
To Sunset and Twilight: Why don't you get a new roommate... or a new room? (Current one must be contaminated beyond rectification)
2. And take some hints from her. Seriously, she's seen more action in the past week than you two'll see in the next ten years. I mean, even Celestia is just barely competition. ... Wow Digit... just... wow.
Thanks in advance for the answers. Digit's actions are his own. Do not tie him and me together. Hey! And someone, please, FIX THE BLOODY WALL BEFORE ALL TARTARUS BREAKS LOOSE?! Thank you.
