Video Games

Two hours later, Twilight was no longer deaf and had gone to Earth to buy Celestia and Luna everything that they needed to play video games. Most objects changed in Equestria, and she had no idea what they would look like. She bought them two second-hand PlayStations, four controllers, two TVs and a selection of the latest games. It came to over two thousand pounds. That should keep the two old mares busy, she thought.

She returned to some very excited sisters. They smiled huge smiles and Twilight knew that this would be interesting.
"Now, you two," she said seriously. Celestia and Luna turned to her. "I must warn you, these things are very dangerous if they aren't used properly. You can play on servers, but don't play with anyone that you don't know, and don't post details about Equestria on there. Be nice to other players, and report it if anyone is mean to you. Put on a timer when you start playing, for maybe half an hour, and come off when the timer runs out. Don't play for more than an hour a day, and remember to eat, drink and go to the toilet between games. These things are very addictive."
"We've got it, Princess," Luna saluted.
"I should hope so. Now, go back to Ponyville, and say hi to my friends."

Back in Ponyville, Celestia and Luna unpacked all of their new equipment. There was enough there for two rooms. They put the first set together in the lounge, using magic to glue the television to the wall. They connected the plug to a panel that collected the magic from the Sun so that it would have enough power for long games. They connected the charging station for the two remotes to this as well. The remote controls were the size of dinner plates, with buttons big enough to be pressed by hooves, but far enough away from each other that a hoof would not press two buttons by accident. They set up the other bits of equipment in their Fun Room, a secret magical room that only they knew about. It contained all of their favourite things for passing the time. As the Fun Room was created with magic inside a wall, there were no windows and no access to sun panels. The equipment had to be charged with magic in some other way. After much thought and arguing, they decided that it would run on energy from the roundabout. That thing could spin fast.

The first game they played on the set in the lounge was a simple game that involved creating their own villages. They remembered the timer, the snacks and the water, and stopped when they were supposed to. They went back a few hours later to finish their village, and all was well in the village of Equestria. The ex-Royal Sisters were having so much fun. Nothing could ever go wrong. Or so they thought.
