As a professional athlete, Dash goes to regular physicals. As an Element Of Harmony, she goes to regular magicals too. Soul examination is her least favorite part, but at least the patient blacks out while their spirit is in capable hooves.
Starlight Glimmer's hooves have questionable capability.
This is an entry in the Snippet Series, an anthology of old oneshots that I (and my good buddy Str8aura) wrote based around interesting pics I found. New ones will be posted every other Thursday for the foreseeable future.
Chapters (1)
A rather enjoyable short story. I liked how the precived problem ended up being the solution.
very clever! I'd never though of a soul test but it really does fit nicely into the pony world. I love that Dash's soul is equally sassy even without words.
I admit I'd really dig seeing Fluttershy and/or Twilight's test but I imagine they're not on the cards unless the muse strikes. n_n I also feel like Twilight's test would make Starlight a nervous wreck or blinded from the magic she puts off haha.
I'd like to see Fluttershy's test.
Ok, that last line got a chuckle out of me. Well played, clever.
It's stories like this that make me wonder why this site doesn't have a general tag.
Would you say that tweet is the soul inspiration?
Well, this was unique. I quite enjoyed the reaction to the strange experience for everyone involved. Just another day in pony land.
This is just an enjoyable little short story overall. Well written.

There are days I feel like this
Sometimes you just need your soul to sneeze and realign your entire spine. Fun story.
Holy moly, I LOVE this! Reminds me of my sister's story about waking up early from anesthesia and having a coherent science chat with the surprised doctors. I would absolutely do the same thing in Dash's position. For SCIENCE!
Oddly enough, my mother's side of the family gets grey hair early on. Mom had it, my uncles had it. Hell, I have a few, and I'm only 35. Not blindingly obvious, but I know they're there.
Shattering into many aspects of oneself sounds fun.
I like it.
I desperately want a sequel to this.
Uhhh I don't know about that that's so kind of dangerous
Another piece from you that brought great amusement. :D
Wonderfully done.
Yeah that's true Pinkie Pie thought the impossible for some reason and sometimes we just can't question her
I got to say this is a pretty interesting story so it looks like Starlight wanted to ask Rainbow Dash to do some testing so with that she wanted to take the soul out to see if she is true to her element but of course the Spirit of rainbow is exactly how rainbow acts and rainbow was pretty interested what this is how everything worked out and she still having some back pains lately but it looks like the ghost wanted to give her one last thing before going back she cracked her own bag but somehow made rainbows back crack as well but some miracle it was okay so apparently the test worked out pretty well and Rainbow Dash was pretty interested how the others were react to their spirits again this was a pretty interesting one keep up the good work
You know... this was really cleverly written, Captured the essence of the characters rather well.
There's something charming about Dash being super quick to work things out, even if she can give off dumbass energy at times.
Like... she's super adept at putting things together, but only once she has all the pieces in front of her, if there's even a single thing missing, she's gonna be stumped.
But I like the idea of Equestria having a secondary type of medical examination specifically for the magical side of things.
Ah, spiritual spine-popping!
Reminded me of this image:

Are you sure she is growing old?
She sounds pretty youthful to me.
Starlight really should have seen that coming.
And then she tripped on a flight suit randomly lying on the floor.

Good story!
I enjoyed reading it.
