Journal of a Background Character

Man's mind, once stretched by a new idea, never regains its original dimensions.

So, Pegasus today, and honestly I wonder why we have clothes. I get that some ponies like to look fancy, but it just doesn't click in my head. If clothes are not required then why wear them. All they really do is restrict your movements.

Nevertheless, ponies wear clothes, and it even becomes something of a business. Rarity, one such dressmaker, apparently hit creators block or something, and decided to give all her friends dresses that look completely ridiculous.

It's just they looked like something children put together, instead of what a pony who took their business seriously would have shown. To quote that silly mail-mare that Ponyville has, "I just don't know what went wrong."

Good night.

=================================================

Unicorn, and started off my day by watching Twilight use magic to change common items into a suit for Spike to wear. I did however get a small laugh when the rock on his head smashed into his skull. Then Pinkie appeared, and when I saw her wearing an umbrella hat, I ran for cover.

Now I know what most of you readers are thinking, and I admit it sounds bizarre, but those that live in Ponyville long enough learn that if Pinkie's body is acting up, it's time to take cover.

For the rest of the day, I proceeded to trail Twilight who trailed Pinkie, and laughed whenever she had the misfortune of being hit, smacked, and attacked by whatever controls luck. For Twilight had none today.

When Pinkie had a whole new 'Pinkie Sense', as she calls them, it lead to Froggy Bottom Bog, and Fluttershy being attacked by a hydra. Everypony escaped, and I even got to see Twilight go into a 'Rage Shift' and light on fire.

Well that's enough for now, time to (writing is obscured here by a smudge)

And Celestia just fell on top of the tree shaking it.

That's it, I don't care how bright it still is, good night.

=================================================

Pegasus today and went to watch the Young Flier's competition in Cloudsdale, for free I feel I should mention. A small benefit of being unnoticeable. Anyway, I happened to find out that Twilight and friends came along to cheer on Rainbow Dash, while I was pinching some rainbows while they were still in liquid state to use for some pranks when I returned home.

I learned that too much make up on a pony makes them look hideous. Seriously Rarity, you definitely made sure no-pony wanted to look at anything but your fake wings.

Anyway, Rainbow performed a Sonic Rainboom when she had to save Rarity from falling to her death after she got to close to the sun and her wings burst into flames. As I am unable to fully explain how awesome it is to watch such a stunt, I can only tell you readers that it was truly a sight to behold.

Before I close for the night, I thought that I should probably explain that even though I can walk on clouds and lie on them while I am a Pegasus, I always return to the ground before I fall unconscious. I don't want to fall and get injured, possibly killed, from turning into an earth pony or unicorn during the middle of my snooze.

Good night.
