"Mother? You turned into my mother?!" Celestia's screams echoed throughout the white space of her own mind.
"It's your fault," said the figure, now a large pastel blue Unicorn. "You thought about your mother. I told you I was just part of your subconscious." The figure's voice was sickly sweet, tinged with a layer of authority that compelled you to obey.
"And if I mentioned a pony made out of chocolate fudge ice-cream, would you turn into one?" questioned Celestia.
There was a loud, earsplitting snap as a puff of pink dust surrounded the figure. The cloud was thick enough to obscure Celestia's view, and for a short moment she believed that the figure had indeed transformed into a ice-cream pony. However, as the dust settled, the figure still stood there, posing as her mother, a smile across it's face.
"Of course not," the figure replied with a tut. "An Ice-cream pony? That would be stupid."
"Are you calling me stupid?" asked Celestia threateningly.
"Well," said the figure with a wave of it's hooves. "If the horseshoe fits."
Celestia growled at the figure threateningly. "So, why are you here? Is it to just antagonize me? If so, you can just leave."
"That may very well be the reason," the figure laughed at Celestia who just snarled back at her. "Oh, don't get your royal vestments in a twist. I already told you I don't know why your twisted mind summoned me. And no, I can't leave. Even if I wanted to, which I admit I don't. Annoying you just seems like too much fun."
"And I suppose I have to sit here and just let you insult me?" asked Celestia sarcastically.
"Well, you could..." said the figure.
"Or?" asked Celestia.
"Or you could put that big fat brain of yours to use for once, and figure out why your subconscious wants to annoy you?" replied the figure, chuckling as she spoke.
The sound of that 'thing' laughing with her mothers laugh really grated on Celestia's nerve. How dare it use her mother's image to taunt and annoy her. The waves of anger rising from deep within her almost seemed to cause steam to pour from her ears.
"You know, I'm you right?" said the figure, noticing the anger dripping from Celestia. "If you're angry at me, you're really only angry at yourself. After all, you're the one who wants to piss yourself off for some reason."
"And why would I want to do that to myself?" asked Celestia.
"Maybe you suffer from low self esteem?" shrugged the figure.
"That doesn't sound like me," repleid Celestia. "I'm well loved and liked by all my little ponies."
"Hmm. Well then, maybe something new has happened in your life? Something to cause you to question yourself." Said the figure.
"Well," Celestia said. "I found out earlier today that other worlds exist."
"And how does that make you feel?" the figure asked, a pair of spectacles appearing on it's feminine features and a notebook and quill appearing in it's hooves.
"I'm, I'm not sure," Celestia stuttered. "I mean, how should it make me feel?"
"Hmm, that's a usual response," said the figure. "Here, why don't you lie down and tell me more about it." The figure sat down in a chair that appeared out of thin air and patted a psychiatrist's couch that appeared in just the same way.
Celestia looked at what appeared to be her mother pretending to be a psychiatrist, the chair and the white void behind them and was unsure. Hesitantly, she took a step forward which, then another, and another. Soon enough, she was lying on the coach opposite the figure.
"So," began the figure. "How do you feel?"
Such a teeny-weeny chapter, really emphasizes how cute celly is being haha.

Yeah, I'm sorry it's small
Wow, Celestia's subconscious is more annoying than Celestia herself is. Also, am I the only one who gets a Discord vibe from her?

Pfft, I took that completely the wrong way.
Besides it was 709 words so it's not that small, the last thing I did was 90 words so you ain't got nuthin on me boi.
Interesting.
Other worlds exist... now she can second guess herself at every turn because with every choice another world spawns. And so goes the never ending cycle
This best thing about this is i'm watching House right now.
lol
The chapter was so small, I cuddled it.
Just caught up in the chapters, and I'm loving this so far! I swear, it's going to be right at the end of the story when House solves the mystery of Celestia's condition...
... and why Wilson randomly ejaculated last chapter.
((Yes, I know that it used to be a legitimate turn of phrase, until modern society decided to twist it like it did most phrases.))

I wanted a Sherlock holmes referance
4232722
It is a perfect Sherlock Holmes reference, if only a single word.
hmmmm is it just me or does her mom sound like house?
Tiny chapter. Big comedy.
never trust a Therapist.. ESPECIALLY one posing as your mother...
I'm disappointed in this performance, I don't care if you don't care, I like referencing things that only I will get because i've heard it so much.
Good Luck on your Exams Smith, make sure you study and focus on grades. And that was a cute chapter, and thank you for posting it before you got busy.

4246768 I dunno, she could have gotten it by eating a bad case of ZapApple jam (and we all know ZapApples are Timberwolf eggs.)
4246803 and what's THAT supposed to mean?

It means a cigar is a
peniscigar.4250226 well, then you're a potatoe
My money's on common cold, or some similar, Earth-specific disease. She'd have no tolerance for it and being in contact with House earlier could have passed it across.
I think chapters covering inside her head are OK to be small as they are sort of like interludes to the story, a break from everything else happening to see something else that is also of interest but can't come up in the normal chapters
