Discord: And... voila! Instant age regression in literally a snap!Luna: Amazing... My sister worked on that spell her whole life, and yet, she has never succeeded in casting it!Sunset: I guess that means we owe you 20 bits and a neoponytan ice cream sandwich, huh, Discord?Trixie: This is great! The Great and Powerful Trixie is now Petite and Adorable, too! Just like in her filly years!Gilda: Uh, Trix? These are your filly years.Trixie: Exactly!Gilda: ...Right...Luna: My friends... It should come as no surprise, but... I think I speak for all of us when I say this spell brings back memories of a simpler, happier time. The age before all our lives truly went downhill... Before Nightmare Moon...Sunset: ...and before Domineering Alpha Bitch #99...Gilda: ...and before Beaky McMadclaw...Trixie: ...and before Ms. Shameless Show-off...Discord: ...and before That-Guy-That-Dropped-His-Ice-Cream-In-A-Mud-Puddle, Esquire.Sunset: Dizzy... I thought you were going to call yourself Mr. Twister, King of Chaos...?Discord: *glares blankly* ...I know what I apologized for.Trixie: ...Anyway... I think I'm remembering happier times, too...Gilda: Ugh... Why does growing up have to suck?Sunset: I don't know... But what I do know is... We all have Twilight and the others to thank for where we are now.Discord: Ah. Excuse me, but I'M the one that cast the age charm.Luna: No, Dizzy... She means, we have her to thank for the fact that we turned our lives around. We abandoned the path of darkness, and now we are encapsulated in a wide bubble of light and friendship. And that bubble gets wider and wider with each day.Gilda: Yeah... Ha... I never thought I'd say this, but this is the kind of sappiness I actually WANT in my life.Trixie: Knowing that there ARE ponies that would always look after you, no matter how bad things get... Twilight was right. No magic beats it.Discord: Haha... You ponies, always so friend-happy all the time. I mean, I know it's a good thing to have, but... Is just basic FRIENDSHIP really the centerpiece that holds Equestria together?Sunset: Hm... Maybe there's more to it than that. See... the bonds we've forged--with so many ponies and with each other--seem to go above and beyond a simple hour-a-day chumminess. Maybe... Maybe our friendships run so much deeper. It would take a powerful friendship to create strong feelings in us like this. ...But what would we call it?Luna: Yes... A single word that sums up how, and why, we and Twilight's band care for each other so dearly, despite any minor quibbles we have...Discord: I don't know about you... But I do believe "friendship is magic." *sigh...* I just hope, in the end, it fits Twilight's definition of "magic," as she believes it does... as apposed to... the OTHER definition...
