Voice test. Canon is The Best Night Ever.

[ponifiedbillmurray]

Your choice of username is most droll, Mundane.

Choosing me for your latest plaything? I'm flattered. Truly.

It would not be the first time forces beyond my comprehension have chosen to torture me with the consequences of who I used to be. Although living a day beyond The alleged Best Night Ever is a concession I'm curious you're willing to make.

Oh, you feel SORRY for me. I'm the first version of me you have ever felt sorry FOR. How TOUCHING, mundane! Perhaps I can start a Redeemed Villains Social Club! Invite Zetta and Sunset out for tea and cucumber sandwiches!

...actually that doesn't sound too bad, especially if there's an unattached Rarity present...

Very well. I'm game. It surely would be better than another morning with that infernal pop song going off in my ears.

[shimmer_on]

Oh, it's you.

[ponifiedbillmurray]

53rd of the name of "oh, it's you."

[shimmer_on]

Yeah yeah, I see your ego hasn't suffered. Mun's aware of the fic, although in a roundabout way. Ever heard of the Sweetie Belle Chronicles? Yeah.

[ponifiedbillmurray]

Without my ego, dear, what else have I got?

(He chuckles at that, and winces at the same time.)

A pleasure, Sunset. Auntie has told me so much about you, and more of it good than you might think.

The mun has heard of the Chronicles, too. They are not incorporating it into my backstory. Probably for the best, alas: that Sweetie is unlikely to arrive.

[shimmer_on]

Well at least you've got the ego to go with the looks.

[She winces a little but nods.] I really hope so. We parted on such bad notes...

In any case, yeah, for the best. Poor Sweetie Belle in that universe is broken. Mun sincerely wishes he could bring in his Six Brides Twilight but that would destroy the universe.

[ponifiedbillmurray]

I've heard that game is a panacea for broken ponies. People. You know.

She misses you dearly, you know.

[shimmer_on]

I know it is. I'm glad at least one of me is there.

I know... I suppose the only way I can talk to her now is through things like this.

[ponifiedbillmurray]

The mundane tells me you've more than made up for your mistakes. Given the nature of our world, I expect the Dazzlings around next year for tacos.

[shimmer_on]

Oh please, don't remind me. They were... odd girls at least, when they weren't actually being actively evil.

I at least think Sonata could be convinced now to stop being evil. Don't know about Adagio or Aria...

[ponifiedbillmurray]

Frankly, my hopes for Sonata are lower than for her brighter compatriots, but let us dwell on that no longer.

Have you a game to call your home?

[shimmer_on]

Mmm, well, she is a bit of a follower anyhow.

No, but Mun is thinking of DDD if it continues to pick itself back up.

[ponifiedbillmurray]

A fine place. Well pedigreed. My head mate Joshua's been, if you know him.

[shimmer_on]

Yeah. I'm not looking forward to the inevitable reset to base canon but if I can become more friendship oriented before the laser of doom, I will take it.

[ponifiedbillmurray]

Looking back on who we used to be is never pleasant, is it? But given the nature of DDD, you've a better chance to break the cycle early. Your diary is likely as not to be how you post to the network, after all.

[shimmer_on]

Yeah. Already there's some thoughts going out on how to break it early. Someone mentioned though magical girls and I'm now worried.

[ponifiedbillmurray]

And how does this substantially differ from canon?

[shimmer_on]

Well I'll tell you one thing; I'm not going to let it be unleashed on Canterlot City.

[ceasetoexist]

Muns are huge jerks who never back off on rubbing your face in all the terrible crap you've done.

How bad could you have been? I mean evil in this place seems to be like pushing people's faces into cakes or something. Which is pretty funny. But there's worse evil out there.

I need better icons.

[ponifiedbillmurray]

Funny you should mention cakes to the face specifically...

Re: Have someone from a different kind of timeloop

[ponifiedbillmurray]

Hilarious, your Majesty. Shall I treat you to my rendition of La Cucaracha in kind?

[loopyqueen]

[Gasp!]

Blueblood!

[The queen of the changelings is now glomping you.]

I didn't even notice you there! Sure, I'd love to hear your singing voice!

[ponifiedbillmurray]

I'm quite atrocious, but if you insist.

(Well. This will make excellent blackmail material at Mac's.)

Still in the cloak and dagger business, or am I to include you in my social invitations, your Highness?

[loopyqueen]

[Thinking about blackmail? Wanting to do that IS an emotion, or did you forget you were in the presence of someone who can sense emotions? Nonetheless, Chryssy gets off of Blueblood and even helps him up.]

...Actually, it's best if you assume I'm a tyrant. Never know when I might not be Awake.

But if I am, I have way more blackmail material than you could even imagine on you.

[ponifiedbillmurray]

Awake...? Ah, aware of the recursion. I fear neither of us are pleasant to be around otherwise.

The Mundane compliments yours on their additions to your canon, by the way.

[loopyqueen]

Yes, exactly. Twilight's around for most of the Loops. The rest of us come and go. And there's a lot of us that do. If it weren't for these Loops, I would have never known hat love really felt like.

And things get chaotic at times in the Loops I'm in. Doesn't really help with a girlfriend obsessed with explosives. Been killed a few times by that, actually. An then Eiken happens.

[ponifiedbillmurray]

Eiken? I'm not famil-

(And then the Mun-memories kick in.)

OH SWEET DAWN.

[loopyqueen]

Yeah.
