Now Playing Audio Log #037-1-B:

Tracy: [walks into the room with a water bottle] Are you ready to continue from last week's session, Serene?

Serene: It always sucks a** to interview deranged ponies, lunatics, and murderers, but this takes the f****** cake, and I have the f****** privilege to endure a f****** second session with the supposed Princess of Love, Princess Cadance, for f***'s sake.

Tracy: Serene, the recording is active! Calm yourself before the love Princess arrives!

Serene: Ah f***!

[ Sounds of Tracy departs the room after handing Serene a bottle of water. The door closes when a poof sound gets recorded.]

Cadance: I'm here for my second session as promised, Serene!

Serene: [A short sigh after chucking the water bottle against a wall] Let's continue where you left off. You chose Blueblood as your volunteer.

Cadance: Oh right, you see, the Prince was a nobody in the eyes of Celestia during his youth and teenage years, so his status as Prince would easily be forgettable when the talk of a new Princess emerging surpasses any achievements Prince Blueblood had accomplished. No one would notice his unruly behavior, while others would call it an act of jealousy due to my success and achievements in curing Equestria from a hatred filter that would have disrupted many relationships regarding friendships and families!

Serene: Well, you used forbidden dark magic, and the Prince earned everything he has despite never having Celestia's influence and guidance to lead him. You don't know the dangers you're creating to become a self-righteous deity with no respect, concern, understanding, and patience. I can't even call you a Princess of Love, considering you forced ponies unlawfully to stay together without acknowledging the whole story.

Cadance: Why do you care about the Prince? Aren't you happy with your husband? Perhaps I made a mistake and should have intertwined you with a mare?

Serene: I remembered why my husband and I wanted to break up our relationship before you selfishly intertwined us; we weren't compatible, and he cheated on me with two other mares. I caught him demonstrating newer ways to show love with a different mare by an Inn, and I was disgusted. It wasn't until I found out last week about your ascension and your horrific, cruel act to force love on ponies that I became a victim of your sick agenda. So yeah, I had my divorce! I'm happy to be a f****** single mare who can find love without a f****** narcissistic Princess forcing things instead of allowing love to flow naturally!

Cadance: You should have stayed with your husband. [An angry snort gets recorded from Serene] What? My magic makes sure you stay in love with him no matter what. How did you uplift my spell?

Serene: It's the truth that set me free. Also, hatred is natural since it's part of life, and you're disrupting the natural flow of healing and redemption! Love can be powerful, but forcing it is also dangerous, and you're playing a dangerous game!

Cadance: Only a novice would make regrettable decisions with the spells I used throughout my campaign to expunge hatred. I am an artist with my craft, and right now, Princess Celestia wants me to save a kingdom on the brink of self-destruction after discovering a new species, so I'm heading there later today.

Serene: For the love of Celestia, don't try to force them to love! [Sounding frantic for the over usage of the spell causing horrific side effects]

Cadance: What's the worst that can happen with love? Everyone is happy, and the hatred goes to Blueblood.

Serene: You are an arrogant f*** and a stupid m*********** if you blatantly believe that there are no problems with the usage of forbidden black magic! You will become your own worst enemy, and no one will ever love you when they find out about your terrible, horrific, and demonic deeds you've facade as blessings!

Cadance: I'm not the one swearing, and cursing doesn't resolve the issue.

Serene: Look who's talking, you f****** a******! You're nothing more than a self-arrogant f***! You know what? [her magic forces the bell to ring to end the session] Times up! Go! Ruin a nation! I f******* dare you to imply force love with your forbidden dark magic! I expect you to come back in two weeks! I'm going on vacation! So bye!

Cadance: Bye! [A poof sound echoes when she teleports out of the room]

Serene: F*** that pony. Princess Cadance will bring a calamity upon us due to forbidden dark magic. [Tracy returns to the room]

Tracy: Hey, did you have strong feelings for Prince Blueblood?

Serene: He was my everything after I found out about my ex cheating on me. Now, he's gone. [Sad sigh gets recorded] I will exact vengeance on the stupid love Princess for ruining my future relationship with Blueblood!

Tracy: Do you mean that? You're a mere Unicorn.

Serene: Not strong in magic potency, but using this evidence to inform Princess Celestia about another pupil gone astray.

Tracy: Do you know where the Princess is sending her?

Serene: Something about a h*** and c********** with legs that look like Swiss cheese holes. Quite honestly, though, I don't give a s*** about Cadance. She's the worst f****** Alicorn I've ever interviewed. My family's generation had the displeasure of interviewing Princess Luna before fully committing to transform into Nightmare Moon. I f****** hate this f****** job.

Tracy: Where would you go on vacation?

Serene: Anywhere not loved-crazed corrupted by Princess Cadance's f****** influence. [leaves the room]

Tracy: Wait! You didn't finish the - [hears the door slams] F***! [short sigh] I'm Tracy subbing in for Serene to conclude this session and will prepare for the following in two weeks. I can't believe Princess Cadance would behave as self-entitled and arrogant while blatantly using her Alicorn status to perform horrific deeds with love. I can't fathom love can be used as a weapon of evil and honestly, I hope Princess Cadance becomes love-stricken when her spell backfires on her.

Serene: The recording is still active!

Tracy: F***! [face-hoofs herself] End it! End IT! END IT!!

End of recording.
