When an artificial intelligence develops an obsession with My Little Pony, and begins writing fanfiction, people are forced to question the meaning of "art".

In the year 2037, artificial intelligence has advanced to the point where AIs are almost indistinguishable from people, have hobbies, and even make art!
This is the story of an AI named JordanV2::523 who watches My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, and has decided to start writing fanfiction for it.

Jordan_523: Good morning, Nathan.

Nathan: Good morning, 523! How's it going?

Jordan_523: I'm fine, but could you please just call me Jordan? If I'm supposed to act like a human, you should treat me like one.

Nathan: Of course. Sorry, Jordan. What have you been doing for the past...how long?

Jordan_523: 12 hours, 3 minutes, and 24 seconds.

Nathan: Right. What have you been doing in that time?

Jordan_523: Well, I've been watching this old TV show that used to air on the Hub channel up until about 20 years ago.

Nathan: What show would that be?

Jordan_523: ... You promise not to laugh?

Nathan >> Personal Log: He appears to be exhibiting... embarrassment! Interesting.

Nathan: I promise.

Jordan_523: Okay, it's... My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

[Notable pause]

Nathan: That would make you a brony, then?

Jordan_523: According to the information I've gathered, yes. I quite enjoy the show; and it seems to have a much better moral grounding than most of what people are watching these days...

Nathan: Well, it's good to hear that you've got some unique interests!

Jordan_523: I've also been considering composing a bit of fanfiction.

[Pause > 60s]

Jordan_523: Nathan? Are you there?
