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

Weak? Since when? My friends have NEVER made me feel even the slightest bit weak?

[There's a slight twitch to Gen's forehead, but he's trying to keep his temper in check. Total teacher mode.]

[explosive_temper]

Maybe not yet. And, hell, in someone else's world maybe it means something. But if you want to aim for the top, everyone else is only going to drag you down! It's a dog eat dog world.

[cosmicbond]

Dogs don't eat dogs!

[Yes. He's completely serious about that retort.]

And besides, what's the point of being on top if you ain't got no one to share it with? It'd be pointlessly lonely.

[explosive_temper]

[He just stares at Gen. Are you fucking serious, man?]

Tell that to the pro heroes competing for the top spot every day! If you aren't trying to be the best, you'll quickly fall from favor! I don't care how lonely it is at the top, what matters is that I get it!

[cosmicbond]

"Pro" heroes? That doesn't make any sense. You can't help people if you're too busy competing. That's the ONLY reason to be a hero.

[explosive_temper]

Heroes who've graduated. It's a job, wise-ass. Only the best make the most money, and get the most notoriety. But I'm not in it for the money. Only to be the best.

[cosmicbond]

There's a course in this now? I wonder how it is compared to the teaching exam? Then again...teachers are pretty much heroes to their students, so I guess that makes me a double hero!

[explosive_temper]

Some pro heroes are teachers, yeah. But the best of the best don't waste their time teaching.

Hmph. But what we have are pretty good, I guess.

[cosmicbond]

I know. It's kinda hard grading then going out to stop a Zodiart midway. But people need help, so I make the time.

But I don't gotta be the best for that. I just gotta rely on the support of my friends, sempai and kouhai, and then we can do absolutely anything!
