Spoilers for My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic #1

[bestofthebest]

Yeah yeah mun, I get what you're saying: always keep your eye on your opponent. But Fluttershy needed that lesson: you're nice until it's time NOT to be nice! And it worked out okay. For her, I mean. And while we're on the subject, why'd you get both mine AND Fluttershy's covers?

Anyway, Pinkie Pie using her party cannon to stop those Changelings was pretty sweet! The only downside to this whole comic book thing is waiting a month to find out what happens next. A MONTH!

But I was right about me being JUST like Daring Do and everypony taking on a dangerous quest! I'm also right about it being a trap, but not even rolling boulders would stop Daring so bring on those traps!

...Still don't wanna face any ninjas, monkeys OR monkey ninjas!

Oh, Trixie doesn't know... Perhaps something a little like... this!

[A red beam shoots out of her horn toward Spin Cycle and her eyes glow red. Soon, Dash is left with one wing 4 times as big as it's original size. Trixie loves this amulet.]

[bestofthebest]

...HEY! What'd you do?! Whoa!

(And down poor Dash goes, barely preparing herself for impact before slamming into the ground.)

[cape_and_wizard_hat]

[Trixie just gives a haughty laugh at that.]

Maybe that'll teach you never to heckle one of Trixie's shows again!

[bestofthebest]

...Change my wing back!

(Poor Dash tries to fly back up, but with one wing bigger than the other? Not so easy.)

[cape_and_wizard_hat]

Hmmm... Trixie shall wait for an apology.

[bestofthebest]

(Rainbow closes her eyes and tries one more time in vain to fly before glancing away.)

...I'm sorry, Trixie.

[cape_and_wizard_hat]

Trixie wonders what exactly you are sorry for.

[After all, that apology might not have been genuine.]

[bestofthebest]

(Her one wing flaps up and down despite the bigger one not going as fast, or even flapping. Her annoyance is mounting, but she holds it back reluctantly.)

...I'm sorry for embarrassing you during your show.

[cape_and_wizard_hat]

Hm...! The Great and Powerful Trixie accepts your apology and shall return you to your rightful state.

[She casts her red magic on Spin Cycle again, this time restoring the wing to it's correct size.]

Trixie wonders if those rude and unruly ponies you were with will admit to Trixie that they tried to ruin her show.

[She lands and magics the pegasus wings off of herself.]

[bestofthebest]

(Such a relief! She flaps her wings eagerly and hovers for a few moments, frowning at the mention of friends in that manner but...something was up.)

Not willingly.

[cape_and_wizard_hat]

[Trixie doesn't like that "not willingly." She frowns, turning and walking away.]

It appears Trixie has to locate the rest of those rude foals.

[harrisonfoal]

Not to butt in Tricks, but I've seen you flaunting that amulet around here more then a couple of times and it has the treasure hunter adventurer in me curious. What's it's story?

[cape_and_wizard_hat]

A great magician is never to reveal their secrets.

[harrisonfoal]

Pft, I should have seen that coming.

But surely the great and powerful (and lovely I might add) Trixie must love to share her stories. Her triumphs. What grand adventure brought such a mysterious trinket into your possesion?

[cape_and_wizard_hat]

As you wish. Trixie had-

[Wait... what?]

..."Lovely"?

[harrisonfoal]

Hmm? Oh did I say that out loud? So sorry. I just can't help myself at times. As an archeologist I have an appreciation for art. And you're rather like a beautiful marble statue brought to life.

[cape_and_wizard_hat]

[That's an... odd form of praise. But it's still praise, nonetheless.

Trixie, gives a short, haughty giggle.]

As The Great and Powerful Trixie was saying, she had to brave an ancient ruins defended by beasts of unspeakable horror!

[harrisonfoal]

Oh goodness! Do go on. I love ancient ruins.

[She's definitely watching you now Trixie. You are the only person in the room]

[cape_and_wizard_hat]

[Trixie goes on to detail the story of herself entering the ancient ruins. At times, he uses her red magic to create nigh-perfect holograms and illusions detailing the adventure. It's as if they were in the very castle itself!

Whether or not this is true is hard to tell, but it's still very entertaining.]

[harrisonfoal]

[Cheers and applauds and uses her knowledge of archeology and adventures to try and determine if it's true]

Wow! Beautiful AND brave. No wonder you're the great and powerful.

[cape_and_wizard_hat]

[Well... Trixie's story had inconsistencies with real archaeology. Maybe Trixie was just dramatizing the story to make it more entertaining?

Trixie soaks up all that praise. She impressed one of her favorite novel characters!]

'Tis true, my enthusiastic admirer. Not only has Trixie gained this dazzling artifact, but she has also defeated hoards of dragons, felled many a manticore, survived a magic-loathing world, drove away an insect invasion, and even bested The Dreaded Ursa Major!

[harrisonfoal]

It's enough to make a pony swoon! How do you keep so modest and kind hearted with such power hanging heavy on your shoulders?

[She can tell Trixie's a bit of a showboat but Daring has an appreciation for many types of pony. It comes with being so multi-cultural]

[cape_and_wizard_hat]

[Trixie lets loose a short, haughty giggle.]

Trixie is pleased to hear you praise her modesty. She always does her best.

[harrisonfoal]

So I can tell~

[Reaches forward with a wing to brush back a stray strand of Trixie's hair with her wingtip]

But surely you must have many admirers. Callers. Friends?

[cape_and_wizard_hat]

[Trixie flinches and backs away when the wing gets too close to her face. You can look, but you can't touch.]

Trixie needs not any friends, but she has amassed many admirers over all the time she traveled in Equestria and from planet to planet on the ship that swims through space!
