Gus barely said a word to her through the appointment. He discussed what he wanted to wear with Rarity, who seemed more than a little bewildered by his insistence in covering certain parts in basically everything he wore. Even a fashion designer like her saw the world more or less the same way as Iron Feather—without any idea that ponies should wear anything more than what was both useful, expressive, or some combination.He wanted outfits to explore and film in, describing more or less what clothes from…-

Silver was frozen in place—not by any power of the Polestar, but with absolute horror at what he saw. All the time she warned me this would happen, I thought she was just being paranoid. Why didn’t I listen?A few excuses flashed briefly through his mind, before being swallowed just as swiftly. “No,” he said, stepping directly between the gemstone and Magpie. The light blasted through him, penetrating the suit and even his closed eyelids. The helmet was still polarized, but now even that didn’t…-

Thanks to her otherworldly origin, Lotus had been in more than her fair share of powerful spells.It took considerable magical might to warp between worlds, transform humans into griffons, and theoretically find a way to change back. Even if some of those drives no longer remained, the experience she had gained would follow her, elevating her competence far beyond where it should've naturally stood.Even so, casting a spell with Twilight Sparkle felt a bit like walking into the wrong classroom, one teaching…

Silver Star kept his word, and stood watch over Magpie’s body. It didn’t matter to him that he had to do it in the company of a potentially hostile spirit. It didn’t matter that he had no food or water, he’d gone without food for weeks at a time without real issue.At least he didn’t have to look directly into the terrible consequences he had invoked for Magpie, since she was soon completely encased in crystal. At first he could make out the faint shape of her cloth cloak within, a dark patch in…

Sunset did not dream, not exactly. What Sunset did see she had great difficulty even classifying into the world she knew. It wasn’t a dream, and yet she wasn’t quite awake. Something moved around her in an indeterminate gray space without end or beginning.Could this be the Void Starswirl had spoken of in his treatise on the intersection of related worlds? She couldn’t ask any of the natives, because she couldn’t ever see them. Perception would come as a general sense of observation, but by the time…-

For the first few hours, none of them could do anything productive. It wasn’t just being in such an unfamiliar space, with gigantic furniture that might’ve been picked for size, but still was far too big to feel like they really belonged here. Aside from a few wonderful reminders of the delights of home, the food was strange to the ponies. Being so far north meant few of the fresh veggies and grains that were their staple diets.Instead, everything was processed, everything was canned—so more of the…-

Sunset Shimmer had known full well that there might be civilization on the other side of the portal. American fiat currency would be worth less than the paper it was printed on, but she might need money to get things done. There hadn’t been a transcendental instant waiting beyond the mirror, stripping away the illusion of substance from reality and giving her a single experience that would empower her with magic forever.She would have to work, have to read, and have to study. That’s fine. I knew it…-

Sunset stared down at her marshaled legions, grinning with pride. True, it was a waste of resources to give them bodies the way she had, a waste to detail them and give them realistic responses—but as it turned out, the school's ghosts worked better when they had bodies.No location in the school was large enough for the soldiers she had created, so Sunset had added back the wide expanse that had once held simulated houses and roads with empty cars from nowhere. She hadn't bothered with any of the…

Magpie wasn’t exactly expecting anypony else to attend their little party, but she was proven mistaken as soon as she stepped inside. Silver hadn’t packed the apartment with ponies, that just wasn’t his personality. Instead there were only two others, though she wasn’t sure how they’d gotten there so quickly. “Princess,” Silver said, levitating the bottle towards her. “Would you like any before I start pouring this for the rest of us?”Nightmare Moon shook her head once, not even meeting…

Twilight glided beside Fluttershy down to the level of the bog. Her companion didn’t touch the ground, so she didn’t either, spreading her wings wide and staying above the mud and skeletal trees. She could practically feel the branches reaching up to try and grab her, though so far they hadn’t moved. “Stay with me!” Fluttershy called from up ahead, speeding up a little. “We don’t have far to go!” Fluttershy tucked her wings and sped up, forcing Twilight to flap desperately to keep up.…-
