Still voice testing, though now with another reserve

[guardsthenight]

If it is so frustrating trying to manage me, I'm not certain why you are putting so much effort into it. You have other things that you can work on, and I have my duties to attend to.

You have done what now? Two places?

Yes, a town sounds preferable to a torture facility.   I'm not certain why you cannot just pick one, but I will be much happier  --

[Her expression becomes outraged and her voice booms.]

We will live in a what?

UNACCEPTABLE.

[Lightening cracks.]

Whatever it is, it can't be too bad.

[I think you're forgetting to bow down. Princess Luna is a princess, and I really don't want us to upset her.
She can handle it.
...eep]

After all, you'll be equipped with your loud voice.

[Fluttercruel sort of picks her ear to try and get the ringing out of it.]

[suicidoll]

Therein lies the problem, you see; Mayfield has the ability to rob one of all of their abilities. That may include the loud voice as well.

[cruel_kindness]

...Okay, now I want her to go to Mayfield.

[suicidoll]

I would comment on how cruel that remark was, but I believe that speaks for itself.

[cruel_kindness]

Hey, if it would save us from going deaf, I'm all for it.

[suicidoll]

Perhaps...but you know, she could very easily get it back. Mayfield does return the things it steals.

[cruel_kindness]

Good thing I'm not going there, then.

[suicidoll]

That would likely be for the best; it's far from an ideal location where I would imagine you and Fluttershy. However, several of your friends are already there...

[cruel_kindness]

Oh really? Which ones?

[suicidoll]

(A moment's thought.)

Rarity, Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie and Twilight Sparkle. They've all been there for some time, from what I'm told.

[cruel_kindness]

Heh. We'll think about it. so how are they doing in there?

[suicidoll]

They're doing well...well as anyone can in a place like that, at least. They're still doing fine, though.

[cruel_kindness]

That's good to hear. If they were in trouble, I would've bucked my way in there, application be damned.

[I... I don't think you can do that.
Just try and have them stop me.]

[suicidoll]

That's very noble of you, Fluttercruel. I'm sure they'd appreciate the gesture.

I'm doing everything in my power to ensure their safety, if that helps you feel better.

[cruel_kindness]

No prob. Someone's gotta be there to watch their flanks.

[suicidoll]

Rest assured that there are many who are looking after them, myself included.

[guardsthenight]

[She blinks. Wasn't this the shy pony that could barely say two words?]

You are different than I remember.

[cruel_kindness]

[Yep. Different with the less vibrant colors, the barely noticeable scars, and the helping hand cutie mark.]

Tch, You don't remember me?

[guardsthenight]

No, I remember you differently. Are you not Fluttershy, the pony with the softest of voices?

[cruel_kindness]

[Damn those grains of sand...]

'Shy's here with me. The name's Fluttercruel.

[guardsthenight]

[The princess is not too sure about this.]

She is . . . here with you? What does that mean?

[shy_kindness]

[Fluttercruel sighs. She then transforms into Fluttershy. Her colors get more vibrant, the scars disappear, and her butie mark becomes 3 butterflies.]

Um... Hi...?

[guardsthenight]

What kind of magic is this?

[shy_kindness]

[...squeak]

...Discord... made Fluttercruel.

[guardsthenight]

Discord made Fluttercruel from you? When did this happen?

[shy_kindness]

Um. We were in the garden, and Discord made Fluttercruel. Or... Turned me into her.
