Beautiful. Unlike the original, this Pinkamena looks fierce.



Not even in a "Imma Cupcake you" way, but in a well, determined, almost heroic kind of way:



"The balloons said my friends didn't me seriously. But they are the ones who are acting silly. Applejack cannot stop lying over the smallest, most irrelevant, most obvious things. Rarity suddenly is convinced we want to steal her ROCK. Rainbow Dash just....just....left. She's never run away from anything in her life! Fluttershy just kicked me, and despite of how I fighting back against the world I was convinced was against me, I let that go and took my frustration out on Applejack instead simply because the absurd fact that it was FLUTTERSHY who did it caused my brain to go BSOD and reboot. And Twilight...oh Celestia, Twilight....she was bossing us around, and I was annoyed by it, thinking it was just a stupid game and she wasn't really asking for my help but just playing around, until suddenly, she just...broke. ....Her part's not that funny, actually.



And then I realized that it was all of us who are playing games. But none of us are laughing. I guess maybe I am, but largely at myself for not seeing it. For it even taking me this long to notice that I'm attacking any and all of the tiniest insults in the subtext of what I think somepony is doing, all while ignoring the OBVIOUS. UNSUBTLE. UNDISGUISED. noise in the background.



It's you. You are the only one who is laughing here. (er...next to Fluttercruel, that is.) And it is unmistakingly a cruel laugh. And the balloons were wrong. It is VERY different from the laughter that makes me happy.



You've outsmarted us. There's no way the Elements of Harmony will work like this. And you are just. so. PROUD. of yourself for doing so.



Discord....I see what you did there.



And I WON'T let you get away with it.



I won't let you...laugh at my friends anymore."
