Through Twilight’s confusion, one truth surface before all the others. She might be somewhere strange; she might be light-years away from home and ignorant of the state of Equestria. But that didn’t mean all her knowledge and experience was suddenly invalid.She knew dark magic. Anything that could’ve done permanent damage to…-

Chapter 8: Welcome to Ponyville!“How... how did you know..." Chance was speechless, looking at her reflection in the mirrors surrounding her. The pony she saw reflected there looked like a stranger, a graceful and beautiful stranger. So long as she held still, it was easy to imagine that she was not a strange and sometimes unwelcome visitor from another universe. For a few wonderful seconds, she saw a glorious vision of another filly entirely. The daughter of some noble unicorns from the far off castle…-

Time passed. Recursion could not have easily summarized how she lived, except to say that she was satisfied.Eventually, across the blurring of subjective time and the march of its absolute on Earth, the world ended. Very few ponies were exposed to the chaos, except in very specific circumstances.“Where are we going, Momma?” The colt’s voice sounded close in Recursion’s ears, and she turned to look sideways at him.Base Case had a gray coat, though he had inherited a slightly yellower form of her own…-

She already knew how to start: the power that the baby seemed to use the easiest, and which would simultaneously make her own life improve the fastest. She needed to learn how to move things with her mind.She resisted the urge to just open the old Matrix movie and watch that. She never would’ve thought reality was a simulation before, but now… maybe whoever ran the whole thing was just playing some incredibly unfunny joke with her. Next she’d be in a pool somewhere, and find the stairs removed when…-

Theo could barely lift her claws as she made her way into Sleighsburg. Here the earthquake hadn’t just torn up rocks and opened random holes over nothing—here the devastation was real and extremely pronounced.There weren’t thousands of bodies littering the streets—there weren’t even thousands of ponies in the entire village. But there was terrible damage to everything she could see. Houses had come crashing down—sections of wooden bridge over ice had collapsed, and gaps had widened. Already…-

Julian woke much earlier than Avery—well, this one. Having such varied schedules was actually an advantage for Julian, it meant that he could spend his time with more than one of the pieces of his best friend. It would’ve been much simpler to think that only Avery was the same person and that all the others were clones—but that worldview had not survived evidence. The truth was that every little piece was something he recognized, and every one of them cared about him in her own way.So he took…-

But Nightbreeze had been right about the ritual, just as she had been right about a great deal. There was nothing dramatic, at least not to her. Hayden listened to the ponies as Princess Celestia and Luna formally accepted oaths of loyalty from each of the house lords—which thankfully didn’t include her. She was here as a member of Luna’s house, so all she had to do was sit and listen as quietly as possible.She got many stares, whispers, ponies pointing at her, but that was all.When the ceremony was…-

Twilight resisted the temptation to send the pony right back where she came from. For a citizen of this strange, dystopian world that Equestria had become, Trixie seemed basically identical to the way she remembered her. The mane was a little shorter, and not smoothed with the magician’s usual cocktail of expensive conditioners. She looked a little leaner under the robe, probably a sign of just how much worse her act had done. But otherwise, she was the same pony. I guess I should just be glad she…-

Ashton took a few days off Equestria. His sale of mods and spells didn’t need him to keep it up, and not just because there were ponies in the castle to make sure potential visitors got personal attention. He just needed a little time to think, and he wasn’t going to get it in Equestria.He found his mind drifted back anyway, imagining his transitional diagrams and the signal propagation that could be combined to form a pony. Not a real one—he would probably never be creating minds the way Celestia…-

Dear Journal,You know that old saying “be careful what you wish for?” I do. Maybe I should’ve tried to listen better. It seemed like the worst thing that could happen was being alone forever. I still think that. It’s just… that idea’s being tested now. I'm sure part of it just comes from being with someone new. You spend tons of time alone and you get to thinking that's the only way life ought to be. Then you add in somebody new, and they expect something completely different. It's an…-
