>You are Twilight Sparkle and... "Ughhhh..." >And you're never drinking again. >In fact, you may just stay in bed for the rest of your life if there's a non-zero chance of feeling like this ever again. >You feel a gentle prodding at your side and try to scooch away from it, even hiding your head under the covers to try to escape. >"Get up, Twilight. I'm hungry." >Starlight. >If you had known she would betray you like this, you would've left her back in that empty timeline. "Then get food and leave me alone." >The prodding continues, harder this time. >Could you use the Elements to turn her into a statue? >Wait, the Elements are in the tree. >Drat. >"Can't; Anon said I don't get food until you're out, too." >You groan and feebly paw at the sheets as they're pulled away from you. >"Now, get up. The rest of the girls are awake and eating." >After a fair amount of completely-justified grumbling, you roll out of bed. >However bad your hangover is, food sounds too good to pass up. >A few minutes of plodding along behind Starlight later, the two of you finally reach the dining room. >The rest of the girls were sitting around the table in various states of hungover with plates full of pancakes in front of them. >As you take a seat next to Fluttershy, Starlight shuffles towards the kitchen. >"She's here now. Food." >"Ask nicely or this won't happen again." >"Food please." >A plate floated in front of her wrapped in a green glow. >"Close enough." >Starlight sat down with her plate as a green head popped out of the doorway. >"Twilight, whaddya want in your pancakes?" >A series of groans came from your friends as Anon's too-loud voice bounced around inside of your skull. >"Hush or the rest isn't coming out. Twi?" >A wave of silence swept over the room at the threat of less food. "Uhh, chocolate chips?" >Anon disappeared back into the kitchen with a nod. >"Told ya so, Spike." >You looked around at everyone else as they silently ate. >Pinkie caught your eye and swallowed the pancake she had haphazardly shoved into her mouth. >"Nonny and Spike woke us up and made food." >That was... surprisingly non-verbose for Pinkie. >After a few minutes of sitting in silence and twiddling your hooves, Anon came back out of the kitchen, carrying several plates in her magic. >As she got closer, you got a better look at her. >It had been four years since she got here and she was now almost at eye level with you. >She adapted relatively quickly to life as a pony after a few... psychological hiccups. >You couldn't imagine changing gender and species and just getting used to it like Anon eventually did. >"Scrambled eggs, hash browns, and more pancakes. I'll be back with more drinks." >As she moves back towards the kitchen after placing the plates on the table, you grab her hoof with your magic. "Come here for a second." >She does so with a confused look, though she hugs back when you wrap your wings around her. "Thanks, Anon." >She pulls back and smiles at you. >"You all can thank me by cleaning up your mess. Spike and I aren't gonna do it." >Little shit.
