RIP pony nobody cared about (surely the CMC didn’t). Spike is still in control of this 4D chess game despite this little hiccup. As it was firmly established in fiction – luck is also a skill.

On a side note – if anyone remembers one of my old Berzie comics, I actually explicitly wrote that I’d kill her off eventually… And you thought I was just joking. I had this part written down, sitting in my freezer for a long long time :V Oh, and a funeral actually happened in the MLP TV series (the hearts and hooves episode).

OC’s featured in panel 1 are (from the left; not including canon background ponies): one of doubleWbrothers’ ponysonas, MrPOSSLQ’s Longhaul, Magello’s Southern Comfort, Midnight Blaze’s ponysona (his head screened by Mr. Waddle), koobikitsune’s Cobalt a.k.a. “Not Trixie” and SzafaLesiaka’s ponysona. Panel 4 is featuring GrandMoffPony’s Slipstream – some of the appearances being Patreon rewards (others being either my friend and editor or little b-day gifts for RL friends).

If you translate or repost this comic, please do it outside of DA. Thanks! MLP and its characters belong to Hasbro.
