I'm older than your average brony, but then I've always enjoyed cartoons. I'm an experienced reviewer, EqD pre-reader, and occasional author.

The Great and Powerful Trixie has so many admirers, of course. In truth, she only wants one, but maybe that can change.

Written for Equestria Daily's Super Happy Hearts and Hooves Lovefest Fanfic Event.

Well, of course the mirror didn't answer. It was probably fogged over, but don't worry. Twilight will get that Remote Viewing spell modified with a defogger soon...

How interesting, I'd think this kind of story uncommon. However, I do hope you win the EQD event, get another stamp of approval on your work.

To be honest I had a hard time reading this. It was rather indulging, but the way it was written kept making me stop and re-read. The style is...strange to say the least or maybe it's more. Maybe I'm just tired, or maybe I've been reading too much simplified literature as of late. Either was, I quite enjoyed the few rhymes which tickled my tongue.

I'm confused... :trixieshiftright:

What an interesting story. I've seen narcissistic Trixie before, but never done this seriously.

5628510 She's trying. But it'll take some time.

5627146 One day, in the shower, Trixie discovered the only pony who will always be there for her. The shower is not big enough for two ponies.

Whoa, that last sentence just... took my mind on a journey of mixed emotions right now. The way I interpreted it, is that Trixie either really loves herself, or is creating an ideal suitor in her head, and wishing and dreaming that this person would come into her life soon. She puts on a bit of a 'play' of sorts in her mind, with her as her suitor and her reflection as herself. I've been guilty of such things, and sometimes still do it. But this makes me feel incredibly sad for her. I want to hug The Great and Powerful Cuteblue Showpone.

And this is why I you're one of the authors I follow. That was a hilariously presented joke, and I love it.

That was pleasantly depressing. I had kind of suspected who the other was, and with each paragraph it got more and more depressing.

Baby steps, Trixie.

That last paragraph went and tore out my heart... :fluttercry: I love it!

Love it. I'm reading it as kind of nice rather than sad, that she's learning to love herself or see herself as someone worth love at least rather than purely the blown up pretence she forces in front of others. It fits with her character.

I genuinely laughed at the end. I'm evil.

I reviewed this story!

My review can be found here.

Every so often I come back and reread this, and I find it's always worth the trip. :heart: TD's review pointed out that the story's simplicity and dependence on its central gimmick makes it a bit of a one-trick pony (pun intended), and there's a part of me that can see the argument. But when I think about stories that have gotten through to me and left a lasting impression, this one is never far from the top of the list.

Heh, and this was just something I spent an hour or so writing so Seth would be sure to have a Trixie story for an open Valentine's Day fic post.

Found this at CoffeeMinion's recommendation. I wish I'd read it years ago, though these days, it takes on a less bitterly sweet tone. We know that one day, Trixie will have more friends than this one. Ones that will be able to answer that last line. Wonderful stuff. Thank you for it.

Kinda ends on a sad note but in a good way. Hope there is a sequel when Trixie is besties with Starlight and Trixie tosses that mirror aside
