Daisy’s eyeridges disappeared into her curly, lime-green forelock. “Oh, I see how this works. So… you’re telling me the reason you aren’t doing your job is that… you don’t have a job to do?”
Daisy gave the rose-themed mare an exasperated sigh and gestured to the forest beyond the edge of town. “Do you not understand that every living thing in that forest is magical or influenced by magic? The corrupted tentaculae propagate the dark magic of the forest by absorbing and then enhancing and re-spreading the corrupted magic it feeds on. But what if we changed its food source to good magic? If we can teach it to feed on that, it would then enhance and spread that magic around! Instead of corrupting its surroundings, it would cleanse them instead! Given enough time and enough purified tentaculae, we could reverse the process of Everfree corruption! Given everything we’ve been through in the past year involving that monster's nest of a forest, wouldn’t you try anything at this point?” Daisy glowered at her friend, daring her to answer with anything other than ‘yes’.
Lily shrieked immediately, Roseluck catching her as she went dizzy from fright and nearly fainted. “What in the name of Cerberus' little brother is that Tartarian monstrosity!?” the latter asked for both of them.
I like that.
Roseluck listened, her mouth open in shock. Leaning a shivering and still unsteady Lily up against a convenient table, she spoke up, “ Why!? Why do we want that thing creeping around outside the forest? Isn’t it bad enough that thing exists at all? If that thing starts growing wild all over Ponyville, I will never sleep again!”
She has a point.
Daisy looked at her friend with a pitying expression. “Rose, it may not be attractive to you —” Daisy gave the plant an objective look “— or anyone else really , but it is a living creature: A magical being that must be studied and understood, not cast off as useless. Are we not magical creatures ourselves?”
Pretty much.
I'll say this: She isn't wrong.
