Previous Chapter Next Chapter

Author's Notes:

Context: There was a brief discussion of how capital-M Magic feels about devices designed to analyze it. I said it was still getting used to the idea of not hiding from everything that sought to understand it. cogwheel though it might have a bit more fun than that...

“Twenty thaums… Twenty-two… Twenty-three… Twenty-four… Twenty-six… Moustache.... Wait. What?”

Fancy Pants reread the freshly printed calibration output from the latest prototype of the next generation Fancy Industries’ Magic Spectrum Analyzer (pat. pend.). Right in the middle of the printout was an image of a very familiar looking moustache. It had the same basic appearance as the one he saw in the mirror every day.

“Ms. Spice?!” he yelled.

A moment later, the door to his office opened and his secretary entered. “Sir?”

“Has anyone been in this room today?”

She shook her head. “No, sir.”

“Hrm…” He squinted his eyes at the prototype on his desk. “Please send a note to the R and D division, inform them that I want a review of this unit completed as soon as possible. I’ll provide notes as to why shortly. Thank you, Ms. Spice.”


Pinkie Pie and Twilight Sparkle sat eating lunch together. Suddenly, a luminescent glow filled Twilight’s eyes. Then Magic giggled.

Pinkie’s eyes also started to glow. “What did you just do?

Applejack looked back and forth between the two, then turned to Sunset. "You gonna break this up any time soon?"

Sunset shrugged. "I'll give them another minute. If it keeps up or spreads further, I'll be worried. For now, it's nice to see some of us go into Harmonious mindspace without being completely consumed."

"I'm more worried 'bout Magic itself developin' a sense o' humor."

"I'm basically a composite harmony elemental and I have a sense of humor."

Applejack shuddered. "An' thank you fer my nightmares tonight."
