first trick ☪ action/dictated

[magictrick]

[The castle is beautiful and grand, more than any place that she'd performed in the past and that was saying something. The free rooming didn't hurt either. Truly, it was a stage befitting a queen--befitting of her.

So it is with an open mind that Trixie has trotted down the castles lavish halls and is currently working her way through the ornate lobby. The journal, of less interest than the castle itself and ignored up until now, is floating just a couple feet in front of her.

She spares the presently blank pages a glance.]

Blank. What good is a journal if nothing's written in it? What, am I supposed to write in it?

[She watches the words are drawn across the page. This just got a lot more interesting, and worth her time. She slips into her usual demeanor quickly enough, all traces of annoyance being replaced with a well-practiced dramatic confidence.]

...Oh? What's this? Well, if someone is that desperate to hear about Trixie's adventures, then fine. The Great and Powerful Trixie will tell you about all of her grand adventures and awesome feats of magic!

Well, someone's full of themselves.

[Someone is leaning against a pillar in the lobby.]

[magictrick]

[The journal snaps shut.]

And just who might that someone be?

[Go on. Surprise her.]

[demontobeloved]

Sorry. I meant somepony.

[Troll Cole is troll.]

And I dunno, but she's small, blue and got four hooves.

[somepony's bored and needs a distraction from her freakout yesterday. Sooo...]

Then wouldst thou be so kind as to continue, Great and Powerful Trixie?

[youhavebeenflynned]

Lovely, another pony... [Sarcastic tone.] So what makes you so powerful then?

[direwolfbastard]

Magic? There seems to be no shortage of that in this place.

[huffythedragon]

[Spike is just wandering around, enjoying his freedom after all the trouble in the library yesterday when he stops dead at the sight of her]

Aww man, not you.

1/3 also action

[checklist]

[ This is Twilight Sparkle. She's trotting through the lobby, minding her own business, just being, you know, a nerd and stuff. I don't know how you can be a nerd by walking, but roll with it. She doesn't seem to notice Trixie at first, but then- ]

2/3

[checklist]

[ Oh, wait. Wait. WAIT. FULL STOP. ]

3/3

[checklist]

[ You know what they say?

Sometimes, discretion is the better part of valor.

With that in mind, Twilight slooooowly backs away... hoping to exit the lobby before Trixie notices her.... ]

[bro_codebreaker]

[now that's the kind of announcement that can bring a guy out of his Scotch and Soda Quiet Time. he pulls the journal a little closer]

As a friend, please take my advice. You really don't want to draw her attention to yourself.

[caligulas_aquarium]

oh dear jegus FUCK wwe are not friends i thought i made that so clear last time i blatantly told you to stay the hell awway from me
an wwhy the fuck should i not anywway for some reason i vvery much doubt shes any kind a threat to me

forEVerrrrr

[checklist]

Well, no, she's not a threat. But she is a showoff, and telling her something like "magic doesn't exist" is practically asking her to try and prove she's the best.

Actually, pretty much saying anything to her is asking that.

[ Why, yes, she did just completely ignore the part where he said they weren't friends. ]

[caligulas_aquarium]

like i evven fuckin care if she wwants to try she can but she wwont
ill provve my superiority until i drill it through her skull so far it comes out the other end an her thinkpan finds it difficult to movve around for all the feelins a inferiority ill havve shovved inside her head

[checklist]

Oh, I don't doubt that you'd best her. [ Well, she doesn't really know. Trixie's pretty good, at least at showing people up. For the sake of argument, she'll assume he can, though. ] But iiiiit's really more trouble than it's worth, don't you think?

[caligulas_aquarium]

[Hm, feeding his ego to get him to comply...

Smartest pony, Twilight. Smartest pony.]

alright thats a good point
she isnt wworth my time
in any case im guessin you knoww her or somethin
its not ANOTHER talkin hoofbeast is it

[checklist]

She's a pony, yes.

She's also a big talker who trotted into in town, telling tall tales of terrific triumphs that she touted as truth.

I... hope that she's learned her lesson. But it would be better not to make trouble if it can be avoided.

[caligulas_aquarium]

right so shes all talk
yeah i knoww people like that an quite frankly im not in the mood to put up wwith them evver
if she starts shit ill just tell her to knock it the fuck off but otherwwise ill TRY to avvoid provvokin her or somethin
