It’s a shame to go on the journey to get her there, but Mad* Twilight is a fun character to see and write.

*For various definitions of “mad,” even.

Spike: What happened to you all?

Applejack:

<roll> Discord separated us and gave us individual challenges that were designed to take advantage of our psychological weaknesses. <roll> Some of us passed, some of us failed and got cursed. <roll> The point seems to be to drive each other crazy and weaken our friendship.<br/>
Discord GM: Are you doing what I think you’re doing, Applejack? Because if you are, that’s glorious.<br/>
Twilight Sparkle: And all of that would be tolerable if we could still work past them and, y’know, get around to saving the world? So, are we gonna look for the Reference Guide to the Elements of Harmony? Or do one of you wanna take another shot at a Tony Award?!<br/>
(beat)<br/>
Spike: The, uh, Reference Guide, huh…? I think I know how to find it. Hey, R.G.! If you can hear us, say something!!<br/>
Reference Guide: Mmfff mmfffff mfffffff!<br/>
Pinkie Pie: That book is definitely trapped.<br/>
Twilight Sparkle: Who even cares if it is?? Oh no, one of us might get a status effect! The horror.<br/>
Fluttershy: Why don’t you tell us what’s really bothering you, Twilight?<br/>
Twilight Sparkle: Maybe I would, if I weren’t certain you’d through a psychoanalysis back in my face.<br/>
Applejack: <roll> If yer jealous that you didn’t get yer own one-on-one time with Discord, don’t be. Dash won and she was still used against us.<br/>
Pinkie Pie: You got off easy.<br/>
Twilight Sparkle: STOP<br/>
TALKING<br/>
AND<br/>
START<br/>
HELPING!!<br/>
Spike: OH HEY LOOK AT THAT I found the book!<br/>
Reference Guide: Mffff hmmmgh hhhmph!<br/>
Spike: I think it was muffled for some reason.
