The Six sometimes like to try out strange new games with their friends.

This one is called Among Us.

Not everyone has the same experience.

Especially when one of Twilight's pet peeves is triggered.

This is Among Us except the ponies actually physically play the character roles. As such, ponies graphically "die", but they're fine, it's magic and props.

As a Summersong fic, butts and boobs are mentioned now and again.

This is supposed to just be a short kusofic of sorts and it really had no right to take as long to write as it did.

The Great and Powerful Trixie would happily tell you that not only is she one of the most elegant and competent unicorns in Equestria, but also one of the most gracious, forgiving, even-tempered, and tolerant ponies in the world.

And on the birthday of that insufferable Mud Briar, the Great and Powerful Trixie was about to prove once and for all that she is not any of these things.

No, she was actually rather a terrible person in general. (And not a very good murderer, either.)

Princess Ember, daughter of Dragon Lord Torch, would never admit her feelings to anyone.

She's not hurt that her father would rather scour the whole Dragon Lands, and find a stranger's child to become the Dragon Lord, than raise his own daughter. No way. Maybe a bit mad.

Dragons don't do heartbroken.

The core events of this story are arguably compatible with the TV series canon, but a buttload of implications made in the third chapter are only compatible with Reverie Equestria.

On a rare night when Equestria isn't about to collapse in on itself, a certain Princess invites the Element-Bearers to let their hair down with a special game between friends.

A homely semi-comedy originating as a character skit.

Touched up and resubmitted. While originally a confused mess in an attempt to worldbuild Reverie Equestria, this version now takes place in "meta canon" (the characters are dimly aware they are in a multimedia franchise) in a questionable point in time in the show's chronology.

This "story" depicts drunken characters speaking candidly and vulgarly.

Tartarus is far more than one room with a handful of cages. It's a city-prison, complete with jobs and a market, and even a pub! Drunk prisoners are easier to restrain and less likely to want to leave, so Tartarus just lets 'em do what they want - as long as they stay in Tartarus, of course.

And in one such pub, four losers have a seat to discuss a horrendous inmate, the most vile creature to ever darken the world of light...

Possibly the best and also worst consecutive ~1500 words I've ever written.

Based upon the comedy routine "Two Describe a Third" and its Saturday Night Live variation "Bill Brasky".
