Prone to extreme analysis, wild ideas, and grossness.

In a game of truth or dare, sometimes truth can be more interesting...and disturbing. Such is the case when Trixie is asked why she refers to herself in the third person and casually explains how little regard she has for ethics.

Contains rather gross comedy as well as dark, copious cider consumption, and clones.

Starlight's slight grin faded as she looked at Trixie's dock. There was indeed a number 1, on the right side of it...and to the left, small scars where another 1 could've attached... "Dash, I'm taking more of your cider."

trixie 11 is better then 1 as she survived

I plead the fifth!

Today I learned that the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America somehow applies to ponies who are subjects of the principality of Equestria.

Twilight may have taken some inspiration when she was briefly in the human world for how to number things in her meticulous rules for party games occurring in her castle.

"Dangit, we really should've taken up Pinkie's suggestion to play Truth or Slap. This is exactly what she said ponies would dare each other to do."

Actually, I do like the sound of that, Truth or Slap. Still be just as humiliating, but at least then you'd always know what you're setting yourself up for. :rainbowlaugh:

God, this fic was insane in the best possible way. :D :D :D

Well if these four had more imagination and less cruel minds, I'm sure the game would work better!
Also, it's a reference to a scene in the game Oxenfree: "[Truth or Slap] is better Truth or Dare, because nobodoy ends up licking somebody's butthole."

I was about to say, this fic was insane from the start but as it progressed it got crazier and crazier. But, y'know, in a good way. Good answer to why Trixie refers to herself in the third person in my book.

Such a Prestigious story!

Cos, you know, it's a whole plot homage to The Prestige.

Clearly she was referring to the "All The Rules Of Party Games During Sleepovers That Everypony Knows But Nobody Can Cite And You Were Too Afraid To Ask" by Party Foul

Dang it, I had to giggle all the way through this! Shame on you for making this old guy giggle like a girl of nine!
And that includes this line: "...lactose-intolerant gassy mare" Gods, Faust and whomever, I actually died from laughter then!

Darn, I'm going to have to give a thumbs up,,, if I survive another minute!

:rainbowlaugh: :moustache: :fluttershbad: :twilightsmile:

you know it's a clone because the real trixie would never learn from her own mistakes

btw this is probably better rated as Teen

Trixie definitely faked teleportation this way at least once, in a world where a 12-year-old could do it with some effort after only a few months of study. It's certainly a very magician approach, that even if you are ALSO A WIZARD, you decide to fool the audience anyways instead of getting slightly better at wizardry. Makes it make all the more sense she's so bad at teleporting objects and awfully disregarding of basic safety measures when Starlight tries to teach her.

Good to hear that line in particular had effect. Initially, Second Trixie's love of yogurt was arbitrary, but then I realized (slightly after publishing!) it could pair with a reason to not love yogurt...and then found out while looking for synonyms for "gassy" that it actually can refer to someone being overly talkative, a gasbag, rather than strictly flatulent; everything slotted right into place.

Or maybe it is the original Trixie, who just likes to mess with ponies by making them think she's capable of becoming even greater, while continuing to have body doubles around for certain shows! After all, the cover image is from after Trixie supposedly stopped things...

I did consider the rating a fair bit with this. Trixie's story itself is surely not too much (other than her wording in some places, it's pretty show-like, and this is a site where apparently the mane 6 as wolves ripping a moose's neck out can be at E...), but the framing device being a reference to Oxenfree gave me trouble; I figured that the determiner had to be that if Fluttershy and Rainbow's dares aren't shown being done at all, then E is better with very careful wording, as at T it would just seem like a tease for anyone who paid attention to the rating (of course, maybe leaning into the craziness is just better...).
Also, while the cider they're drinking is certainly of the foamy and thus at least somewhat alcoholic variety, nobody in the story is actually drunk, much as the presentation in the show. Believe it or not, both all apple juices not sold from industrial sources being alcoholic, and ponies being able to drink that like it's water, is realistic (...assuming earth pony magic includes instant fermentation, of course); apples have yeast on them to begin with, but ponies' digestive systems ferment everything they eat for extra energy and have extra alcohol dehydrogenase to deal with that, so it doesn't really matter much to a pony whether their apples come pre-fermented, they're going to feel the same and be very gassy (not in the chatty sense) either way.

I mean, I love the idea, it is good, but there is so much horribly crude and disgusting parts that the whole story just feels overtly offensive and annoying.
