Chromatophage

So….something interesting happened today.

I figured it hadn’t hurt me yet, and the glowing wings were really cool, so I decided to have a cup of the juice. It tastes good and it’s harmless. I was sipping on it as I was flipping through the personnel files and I saw the Legend. Rainbow Dash worked at the Cloudsdale Weather Corporation! The one ancient equestrian that any pegasus cares about and I was looking at her personnel file from the job she had centuries ago. I got so excited that I flared and flapped.

And. I. Flew.

I’m not even joking. I flapped and spun around in the air, I was so excited. And then I realized what I was doing and I fell on my ass. I got up and checked to see how much of the juice I drank, and it turned out that I already drank the whole cup.

I figured experimentation was in order, so I hopped up and flapped my wings, taking to the air like it was nothing. I flew around the terminal, very thankful for it’s high ceilings, laughing and enjoying the air flowing through my feathers. I did loops. I raced from end to end. I bobbed and weaved through the scaffolding and various leftover machinery.

I landed as high as I could, up on a catwalk I didn't even know was there until today. The new perspective and the bright glow from my wings allowed me to see so much more of the terminal than I ever had before. For instance, the catwalk I landed on led to a breaker box at its end. After some priming, I was able to activate all the breakers and get power to all the grids in the terminal. I watched as the lights came on one by one across the space.

A few of the bulbs burst with the surge of power, but now I could see everything. Excitement filled my chest and I got giddy like a little filly on her birthday. None of this would have been possible without drinking that rainbow juice. That Spectra.

Thank you, Rainbow Dash for being so awesome and leaving that Spectra here for me to find it.
