Considering Saturday - Video

[horse_nerd]

Twilight adjusted the camera for a moment before sighing.

Video journal number #1 on the Duck:

Today I learned that my friends and I are going to ascend the throne. As predictably, I "Twilighted". A lot. And as a result, it was pretty insane. King Sombra came back and attacked both the Crystal Empire and Canterlot, and I was reminded of something. That we're always going to be true to ourselves.

That friendship is magic. That nothing will take away what makes us true to ourselves.

I guess I forgot everything in the hubbub of the sudden take over the country business which... won't happen... yet anyhow.

I'm tempted to use the Duck to see why Sombra attacked us, but I feel like that's tempting fate. Should I? I'm hovering over the Dailymotion links right now but I dunno... Ever since I've found the Duck, I've been quiet. I've rewatched my series already from top to bottom. Analyzing what I've done. And, well...

How do I put it...?

It feels weird, looking at your life and seeing what you've done, you know?

In video form.

So, knowing that this is my final adventures, at least for now, I'm going to set a video diary. Every Saturday.

Yours In Equestria

OKAY. Who's dissing friendship aka Cosmic Energy?!

[explosive_temper]

What of it!? What has friendship ever done for people? Other than make them reliant on others!?

[hardearned_friendship]

Stopped a black hole from consuming Japan.

[explosive_temper]

Okay, wise guy. How?

[hardearned_friendship]

Using the power of Cosmic Energy, aka friendship, we were able to defeat the Zodiarts and stop them from opening a black hole that would turn into a warp gate. That resulting explosion would have destroyed Japan completely in the process of warping to the center of the universe.

For the record? The teacher in the replies above you, Gentarou? He's the one who stopped it with our friendship and acceptance of the Zodiart leader, our Principal. Talk to him about it.

So where you come from, friendship is some sort of power. That damn nerd would be happy there, then.

I don't need friends to be the best. Where I'm from, that isn't even a fuckin' option. You're only as strong as you can prove yourself to be.

[hardearned_friendship]

It's not just some sort of power. It's literally the glue that holds the universe together. And it permeates several universes as well. You might not know it, but it probably holds your universe together as well.

You might not know it, but perhaps someday you'll find out that relying on someone to grow stronger might not be a bad thing.

[explosive_temper]

Well, forgive me if I find that hard to believe! I don't need others to grow stronger! I've done it just fine without others my entire life!! I'm as strong as I am because of my own damn self!

[hardearned_friendship]

Is that why you're pushing everyone away?

[explosive_temper]

Why would I want to be friends with these goddamn nerds!?

[hardearned_friendship]

Because deep down, you're afraid of getting close to them.

Afraid of losing everything, finding out that you're not hot shit.

Am I getting close?

[explosive_temper]

Fuck you! What are you, my guidance counselor now!? Step the fuck off thinking you know me! I'm the best there is and I'm going to prove it!

[hardearned_friendship]

I'm just a guy who pushed everyone away and almost died if it wasn't for my friends to help me out. Maybe one of these days, you'll learn that relying on someone won't be so bad.
