Hi. It's gapty. Read a fic today. Or don't. They're both the same to me. Just don't tell knighty I said that.

Usually, the more skilled one becomes, the more the audience gets amazed.

However, for Trixie it doesn‘t apply. But why? No one knows how she does her tricks, so why are they not in awe of her? Is it because of her lack of real magic?

No, it wasn‘t, even if it‘s easy to blame it on it.

Thanks a lot for ChudoJogurt for proofreading it!

This was a nice from sad to sweet story. A bit rushed at parts but it delivered it's message and had some interesting questions about the value of magic tricks once magic is real. I wonder if the pony version of Trixie had a similar experience considering most of her tricks don't use many magical effects.

Also, on a personal note, I like that it was shown how Twilight's actions in that short could be counter productive to her intentions (assuming her intentions were good, that smirk is very questionable)

Great job. Definitely a fave

I personally think that the same would apply for Trixie even if there were no magic in the human world, getting the "same" (even if not, the audience doesn’t known it) tricks shuffed into you just for the magician to show how good she is won‘t get you far.

And about Twilight‘s action, I have read somewhere that she tried with that to save Spike (from getting sawn?), although honestly I don‘t really know how to interprete the (definitely not evil) smirk. But that Trixie believed she got real magic basically gave the idea for that fic.

Thank you a lot for the comment and the fave!

Whoa, I was definitely not expecting my heart strings to be played like that. I love how you to a simple yet over looked concept of how Trixie would feel in regards to the Rainbooms "real magic" and how it would impact her. Trixie is one of my favorite EqG characters and you nailed her character masterfully, please do more Trixie fics!

This was well-structured with rising tension, problem-solving, an interesting lesson and tugs at the heartstrings through the teriffic eyes of The Great and Powerful Trixxxie! :trixieshiftleft: :pinkiehappy:
