Like any good Princess of Friendship, Twilight Sparkle always tries her best to reform and befriend villains. Things are a little different, though, when the villain is you. Er, sort of, anyway. Reforming the evil clones of her and her friends made by Chrysalis is hard! Maybe it's time to call in the big guns...
A story written as a prize for Tangerine Blast, who took third place in this year's version of my CuddleFic Contest and wanted a story where the evil Mane Six survive, and where Evil Twilight pals up with Pinkie Pie!
EDIT: Non-mature featured 4/24/19! (Will it make the standard feature box? We'll see~)
EDIT: Featured at #7 same day!

Chapters (1)
10/10 great read
THIS IS NOW MY FAV OF YOUR NON CUDDLEFICS!!!
Yes, more evil Twilight! I love when villains decide to reform just to spare themselves the agony. Very well done!
(Us music intensifiers)
Absolutely love it! Would love a sequal or side story.
11/10 better than the comic did it with the Mirror 6.
For a second with how weird rarity was acting I thought she was the evil one anyway, I liked it.
Oh my gosh thank you so much! This was so much funnier than it had any right to be. Best prize ever!
And so, the evil Twilight is reformed
Very amusing. Poor Evil Twilight is clearly unaware she's in a crackfic, and there's nothing she can do that won't go hilariously wrong.
"Headcanon: Evil Twilight is made of Phazon."
So she's "a superorganism capable of interstellar propagation accomplished by the assimilation and destruction of its host planet's ecosystem?" Uh oh!
Spike can swim in lava: I don't think tea or coffee is going to do much to him.
Is it mean to laugh at Evil Twilight's plight?
This is brilliant. It's a great way to bring back the Ersatz Six -- especially E.T.
Spike's just acting like it hurts when E.T. pours hot coffee on him to screw with her. Oh, and to score sympathy points with his big sis and his love interest.
I also adore that the only pony to strike dread in E.T.'s heart is Pinkie.
This fic could've gone grimdark if Mrs. Cake baked the cyanide into the town's treats. I'm glad it didn't.
I love that Evil Rainbow Dash is just a tired Rainbow Dash.

That's basically what she is in the show
You're now #3, darling.

Thank you, based Rares <3!
9587066
On the Mature Box, no less!
I'll have to read this tomorrow. I'll probably be slightly disappointed because crackfic, but I really need more Ersatz Six in my life.

I actually don't think it's *too* cracky (although there is a distinct note of alkaloid therein, to be sure) so hopefully you won't be too disappointed
*Baby Dragon goes for swims in molten magma unfazed.*
*Is scalded by luke-warm tea and coffee.*

Heat capacity smh
I wonder if the duplicates are pony enough to put in a freezer and use for spare parts...
"Parts: The Ponus Horror"
Friendship is Pain!
What are friends for
It's nice to see a Mean 6 story, they're hard to find.
I'm curious as to what that looks like.
In all seriousness though, methinks that should have been [pat] instead of a [hat].
One of the absolute best fics along these lines I have ever read. Loved it!

Thanks so much!
Imagine the infamous intro to Fallout 3 but it pans over Evil Twilight instead of zooming out of a bus.
I don’t want to set my butt~ on~ fire~!
I just to prank, a yellow pony!
In my heart there is butt one~ desire~!
And that one is cold...
Good story but there is one question left...
Did Twilight just left her doppelganger to die from wounds and negligence
Lemme finish the sentence.
Ahen...
"Your ass?"
9590760
*butt*- please, this is Ponyville, watch ur language
I also would have accepted ‘exit of the GI tract’ or ‘rump’
9590880
Oh ok
Lemme fix it.
Ahem...
"Your posterior?"
Is that better
I loved that real Rainbow Dash is such a dick Pinkie can't tell she's not the evil one
Love this story! It doesn't pay to be evil, Evil Twilight. Discord and Rarity, don't play that shit!
Poor Evil Twilight... Got the crap beaten out of her by normal Rarity... :)
I was almost expecting Pinkie to actually try the cyanide, only for it to do absolutely Nothing to her.
That was such a fun story to read! Thank you for writing it.
Approved by Pinkie Pie
Hm so is there a China in EQ?
Hilarious. Wouldn't mind a sequel
RD is kinda evil. It’s funny ‘cause it’s true
Evil Twilight frowned. “I was under the impression that all positive virtues were destroyed along with the Tree of Harmony.”
Rainbow Dash’s smug grin melted away. “Really? Aw, man…That sucks!”
Not really their Spirit lives within them if you remember correctly just saying 😉
Of course you change your mind Spike
If only you had this mindset in the actual show...

She survived the Tree of Harmony trying to murder her. I think Mean Twi just passed out.
