Twilight walked through her castle. It had been a few days since their longest, most surreal day ever. And every day after that had been just as strange. To the point that Cheerilee's weird illness was one of the more normal things.

Twilight had become more aware of when she accessed Fortuneteller's Melody. It was very uncomfortable for her. Suddenly knowing things she shouldn't know. Or rather, things she didn't want to know. She wasn't sure she could look at most of her friends the same way again. She wanted it to stop. When she asked Day Dream about it, she said, "You learn to live with it and try not to say too much to anyone."

At least one of her friends was back to normal.

"What the hell is that supposed to mean?"

"I'm just saying that I'm glad you girls have Stands now!"

Twilight peeked through the door.

Applejack had her front hooves on the map. "So you want us to have big targets on our backs?"

Rainbow was floating in the air. "You already had targets on your backs! I'm glad you girls can defend yourselves! I was terrified when I learned the hospital got attacked while I was dealing with Illusio! I though Rarity died!"

Twilight sighed. Rainbow had noticeably changed when she learned her friends were Stand users. Now that they had Stands for real, she had gone back to her normal self. It was a breath of fresh air after how everything else had flipped on its head lately.

"It was the one time I couldn't protect you, and things went wrong!" Rainbow crossed her legs. "You could at least be a little grateful."

Applejack lifted one of her hooves. "For what? Being overprotective until the exact moment someone needed you?"

Rarity was stitching something together. "Lay off of her, Applejack. It wasn't her fault that changeling attacked her. It was a badly timed coincidence. Besides, Twilight's here."

Twilight's other friends turned towards the door. "Sorry to call you all on such short notice. I do have a small update on things."

Rainbow took her seat. "Update on what?"

Twilight took her seat. "At the moment, I'm trying to gather a list of Stand Users and at least get a name for their Stands."

Fluttershy raised her eyebrow. "That sounds like a lot of effort. Are you trying to find one in particular?"

Twilight shook her head. "No. I'm trying to figure something else out. After all, documenting every Stand User in existence is like counting grains of sand. It's impossible."

Applejack tilted her head. "What is that other thing?"

Twilight held her mouth open for a bit. "I'll tell you later. For now, we're about to meet a Stand User that has an unusual Stand."

Rarity looked up from her work. "What is it able to do?"

Twilight fixed a stack of papers in front of her. "We'll find out together. She's been keeping quiet about it. Her husband supposedly knows about it as well."

Rainbow shrugged. "Can't blame her. Imagine if someone went after her with full knowledge of what she can do. The real question is if she'll tell you about it."

Twilight looked at the top sheet of paper. "I hope so."

"Twilight." Starlight opened the door. "You're guests are here."

The six friends looked at the doorway. There were two ponies there, one mare and one stallion.

"Hello, your highness. You wanted to talk to us? Or just me?"
