On headcanons and weddings (Finale spoilers, obviously)

[friendship_reporter]

Dear mundane,

Color me somewhat surprised that the way me and Shining Armor acted before the episode was actually rather accurate for how we really are. Take that as a sign that you're doing things right, and stop being down on yourself for being 'wonky' on my voice, as you put it.

Don't get all grumpy about me saying we never had fights, either! I've heard about what human siblings do, how there's broken limbs and ruined relationships and blood all over the place. We never did THAT, that's for dang sure! What's a little sibling tiff? Not a fight, that's for sure.

I don't know how you say that Cadence being part of my life interferes with things... it's like how things were with my mom and dad once I started going through Celestia's tutelage... I just... kinda drifted. I'd love the chance to have a big sister and catch up with her, now. In fact... I kind of need to talk with the family in general. So much has gone on, and Shining's the only one who's heard much of it at all...

Oh, and as one final note, mundane? No matter how 'awesome' you think it will be? No. No, you are not going to enable Pinkie to do that thing with my tail in the city. No, mun. STOP IT.

Your faithful but somewhat annoyed muse (STOP THINKING ABOUT ENABLING PINKIE'S MUN INTO IT),

Twilight Sparkle.

What are you talking about? Gatling pony is GREAT IDEA!

[friendship_reporter]

...But Pinkie is supposed to be the Pyro, not the Heavy! That's Big Mac's job!

[Wait what are you arguing here, Twi?]

... I should really watch the episode. And catch up on S2 in general.

[makesgoodteam]

From what I am seeing, Pinkie could fill any class. Is ok, little pony.

You should.

[friendship_reporter]

...Just okay?

Re: You should.

[makesgoodteam]

Da, da. Least of your worries. Though...

[No Heavy, you cannot have a Gatling-Twi in your arsenal.]

[magicalrealist]

I know exactly how you feel; my mun has gone ahead and named it the "Twilight Gatling" behind my back...

That's going to be a popular thing now, isn't it?

[friendship_reporter]

...Probably. Except unlike in most games, I still have all my power, Pinkie still has all her... Pinkie-ness, and there ARE things that could warrant that kind of force again. Very red... lobstery things.

[magicalrealist]

I'm really not looking forward to it. The game I'm in lets everypony regain their things; I have my horn back, but it's only a matter of time until Pinkie gets her...Pinkie-ness again.

Do I even want to know about those lobster-y things?

[friendship_reporter]

No. You don't. Let's just say that there are scarier things than Discord out there.

[magicalrealist]

At this point, I've endured my fair share of scary things, but I'll take your word for it.

But now I'm convinced that one of the things I'll have to worry about is my mun; he couldn't stop referencing The Little Mermaid after the end of the first half.

[dashingrainbow]

DID YOU SEE MY SONIC RAINBOOM!?

[friendship_reporter]

I wouldn't've missed it for anything, Rainbow. You've gotten a lot better at pulling it off! It wasn't much more than a year ago that you were still so seized up with stage fright... you've come a long way!

[dashingrainbow]

Oh yeah, you know I train like crazy! [she's still giggling like a school girl though at just HOW easy it was in the end. She probably over trained.]
EEEE, I hope the wonderbolts saw it!

[friendship_reporter]

Trust me, all of Canterlot saw it. Between that and the way you helped rally Fluttershy for the reservoir draining, I'm sure you've got the full attention of the Wonderbolts now.

[Because let's be honest, she shouldn't be the only one bouncing around and squeeing.]

[dashingrainbow]

[Watch Dash now bouncing around and squealing!!!] YES YES YES YES YES!!

[but then she stops] I mean, yeah, I'm awesome. [tries to act cool.]

[shine_on_armor]

Hey, Twi, I think my mun is having some sort of stroke. He's way too excited.

[friendship_reporter]

...On the plus side, if he's still smiling, then you don't need to worry about a stroke. Aneurism, maybe, but not stroke.

My mun wanted to pass on that he's impressed with you, too. And wishes yours luck in scrounging up icons.

[shine_on_armor]

Hey, it's my mun who deserves the credit.

And I had no idea you could sing, Twilight! You should put out an album!

[friendship_reporter]

Pff. Spur of the moment thing; it's not my talent by a long shot! If you want a real good singing voice, you should listen to Applejack some time.

[shine_on_armor]

You're right. Your special talent is saving weddings. If it weren't for you I'd be married to a bug.

[friendship_reporter]

It wasn't anything. I just did what anyone would do for their BBBFF.

[shine_on_armor]

Aw, man. Whenever you call me that I feel bad because I don't have anything to say back, Twily.

[friendship_reporter]

You just did.

[shine_on_armor]

[Sweet, brotherly smile.]

Man, my mun and I are just so happy right now... I'm a little flustered!

[mommy_twi]

I'm just happy everything worked out in the end.

However my mun found it disappointing Discord didn't show up...why I will never really know.

[friendship_reporter]

Because mundanes are unoriginal and think that one overwhelming evil is enough to threaten a world.

[mommy_twi]

[Sigh]

Irregardless, the army of Changelings is enough as far as I'm concerned.

...And you did a really good job for watching over your older brother.

[friendship_reporter]

Thanks, mom.

[jack_you_up]

C'mon Twi, do ya really think yer mun would try somethin' like that in the city?

Not that there's anythin' you can shoot, that won' cause trouble for yourself and everypony else.

[friendship_reporter]

...Funny, I thought you'd been introduced to Him.

[jack_you_up]

Mah mun said he's one of em' eldritch fellers, magic ain't gonna be enough fer someone like him.

'Sides, I'm more worried about you causin' a fight wit' those robots.

1/2

[friendship_reporter]

Nah. They've got a cease-fire going on. The worst that I'd do...

[Realization. She still has that bet going on. Oh Celestia, yes.]

[friendship_reporter]

I've already done the worst I'd do.

[jack_you_up]

That's a lil what I'm worried bout.

Half of em' would shoot ya as soon as they look at ya, and I'm not sure how long this cease-fire thing is goin' ta last. An' I sure as hay don' want ya in the crossfire.

[friendship_reporter]

...If it doesn't last, then I pull out the big guns, too.

As it stands, I'm going to enjoy watching one of them try to explain Pinkie Pie.

[jack_you_up]

Alien robots or not, nopony can explain Pinkie.

Twi, we barely made it t'day wit' those change-whatyacallits, these robot fellas are whole 'nother rodeo.

[friendship_reporter]

They have a weakness.

More importantly, I know well enough to hide of worst comes to worst, and I'd take you guys with me. If we have to live like diamond dogs for a while... it's preferable to the scenario you've presented.
