Muse is VERY unhappy about plans for AU event in mayfield_rpg

[magicalrealist]

How...why would you even want to do that to me? Can't you do something nice for me for a change? Pinkie and Applejack are getting moderately happy AUs, so why can't I get one? This is cruel, even for you.

(She says this with a very displeased tone, but it's clear that the mere thought of it is enough to break her down.)

I...if you're going to put me through that, then I don't want to work with you anymore. I already have enough trouble with that town...why would you want to make it worse for me? Do you really despise me so?

Good heavens, Twilight. You sound positively frazzled, whatever is going on?

[dreamsonwings]

[Oh Twilight, she knows a bit about bad things happening due to muns. While she isn't in Mayfield, it still hurts.]

Sometimes they have a sick pleasure in hurting us.

[magicalrealist]

It's...it's this event. Everypony's memories are getting glitchy and they're all ending up with altered pasts, settings, even futures. My mun is putting me through an alternate future where...

(Oh, this is really hard for her to say. Really hard.)

...where I messed up a time spell and send myself in a future where Chrysalis won. Because I wasn't there, no one saw through her disguise and Equestria was...

(She doesn't want to finish it, but the point should be clear enough.)

[magicalrealist]

Schadenfreude is the agreed term to describe muse/mun relationships, I think. Still...it's just so much harder to cope with. I can't take much more of this...

[dreamsonwings]

Not all of them. Mun has lots of muses here but I seen to be the favorite that gets hurt a lot.

What are they trying to do to you there?

[gemerosity]

Oh... my.

[One of the times she's glad she didn't go further in magical studies. Finding gems rarely leads to rips in time-space]

I feel wretched enough about doubting you about that whole mess to begin with - just imagining those hideous changelings taking over everything... [Shudder]
It's not going to be permanent, I hope?

[magicalrealist]

(Gems are definitely a safer hobby. Diamond Dogs just get in the way once in a while.)

It's all supposed to be a fake and nonexistent alternate canon, but I won't be able to tell the difference in game.

It'll last four days from when we wake up on June 1st to waking up on June 5th. We'll still have our memories of it, so I'll have to prepare for mental scarring.

[magicalrealist]

They're messing with our memories and making us believe different events happened in our canons. Mine involves my older brother's wedding being completely ruined with the changeling queen disguised as the bride and unleashing her changeling army on Equestria once everypony has their guard down...and then a time spell where I step in on the aftermath.

[gemerosity]

[Touché]

Twilight, dear, I'm so sorry. I don't know what possesses these mundanes sometimes.

Every cloud does have it's silver lining - that reminds me I need to ask Rainbow for one next chance I get, ahem - afterwards, perhaps try to remember that you did prevent that from happening?

[dreamsonwings]

Oh no...that's terrible!

[shine_on_armor]

What's wrong, little sis?

[thepurpleway]

Ah, Miss Twilight...will you be alright? [She doesn't sound all that happy...]

[magicalrealist]

It's not your fault, Rarity; I do need the support, though...thank you.

I'll try, but I'll be convinced it's the truth the whole time. I wish it didn't have to happen in the first place. There's no point to it except watching me "be like John Connor from Terminator."

[magicalrealist]

It is. And there's not a single thing I can do about it except brave through it and wait for it to pass...

[magicalrealist]

(Right on time, Shining. Twilight's very flustered and needs some support.)

It's terrible, big brother; my mun is going to make me have an alternate timeline that involves me arriving at yours and Cadence's wedding long after the changelings won...

[magicalrealist]

(Not happy at all.)

I don't know...the effects will be temporary, but the mental scarring won't be. I'm not sure how I'll react to all of this.

How about you, Gakupo? You're not being forced through some evil AU, are you?

[thepurpleway]

From what I've heard, we may have a fuzzy memory of everything after it's done.

Ah...ironically, I'm becoming evil. [He's unsure how to feel about that.]

[magicalrealist]

I'd prefer no memory at all, but things would be very different if we could actually get our way...

...well that's just peachy, isn't it? (Now she has to wonder just how many of her friends are going to become evil because of this...)

[highwarlock]

Oh, your Mun is an evil, sadistic bitch, too? I thought it was only me.

[ W o w, Magnus said a swear word. Don't hear that often. ]

[gemerosity]

Oh I know it's not but I still feel awful that there's nothing I can give you to make the process any easier.

Who from what now?
[Mun steps in to explain]
... You mundanes are bizarre creatures.

[dreamsonwings]

I don't think my mun could go that far with anyone.

[Except that one time that you almost went monster?]

[atailoftwoworlds]

I think our muns are having way too much fun with this. [He really, really, really, really, REALLY hates his mun right now for one of the two AU options she is considering for him]

[wishesforacutiemark]

A-are ya all right, Twilight? What is your mun gonna do to ya?!

[magicalrealist]

Your support's doing plenty of that. It's going to be a terrible set of days...

It really doesn't make any sense, but most of the things my mun does to me don't make sense. I'm beginning to think he's related to Discord...

[magicalrealist]

Then you're definitely lucky. Most muns would have fun toying with the characters they supposedly love.
