What is magic?

No. Really. What is it?

When I was little, before I started watching MLP:FIM, I thought that magic was just in my imagination. Now I feel that magic is everywhere, even if it really is just make-believe. Maybe it's different here, but in Equestira, magic is clearly visible, and without a doubt, real. If you lived there, and denied the existence of it you would be thought as of somepony with a problem or something like that. So yes, in Equestria, magic is there. Real. In your face real.

But what is it?

What is it made out of?

Magic can't just be made out of sparkles. Wait, can it?

I just asked. It can't.

Some people say that magic is made out of your hopes and dreams. Ya, well guess what people, when I was three, I thought magic was made out of Tinker Bell's pee.

Sparkles, asperations and body fluids, are these the only clues we have to uncovering the mystery to every six year old's dream?

Well the short answer is no. Magic is made out of the- wait. You decide. I'm not gonna crush your magical answer. But in the meantime, lets let Twilight Sparkle find out and at the same time let us also find out how to babysit Discord, order lunch with Pinkie Pie, ooh and save the world and Twilight's very own purple, sparkle, book horse butt.
