"I'll tell you Twilight, this here "100 Knots for all kinds of farming." has really been very helpful for me back home." Applejack said as Twilight was quick to ask her if she would by any chance become her volunteer for her experiment. Just when getting out of the door Twilight run into Applejack (The Orange Earth Pony that had it as her job to farm the giant Apple ranch, with her family.), who in return said that she was just dropping by to return a book she had borrowed. "Now all that is needed is to find some kind of test subject to drink one of them, and for me to take notes on what happens." Twilight said as she made her way outside to see if any of her friends would be willing to try. Having settled in at the local library building (That was a giant tree) Twilight and Spike had started to make themselves at home now, as the always very experiment heavy Unicorn was very eager to try and learn some new kind of magic.Īfter a bit of an "Incident" involving some mystical flowers growing near where a lonely Zebra was living Twilight had been very curious on the whole "Transformation" side of things, as she was trying to recreate the random effects of the flowers in some chemical drinks she was creating. While not fully understanding the point of it Twilight had been trying her hardest to make her mentor figure proud, as she had managed to start up a friendship with 5 other female Ponies since getting here. They had recently become asked by Princess Celestia herself to move to this smaller village, as the Princess felt that Twilight needed some time to "Get some friends". It wasn't always easy moving to another town and trying to set up your life again, but that was exactly how it is for the purple Unicorn Twilight Sparkle and her Baby Dragon assistant Spike. (Story takes place back when Twilight and Spike still was pretty new to Ponyville.) The original comic that was my main source was drawn by a user named Mickeymonster, and a link to it can be found here: So basically this story is putting Spike in a situation where his bad luck is a bit worse the usual to say the least. (Imagine "Rocky's Modern Life" and "Eek, the Cat!" as my main examples.) Having not done something original in a while I decided to make a small thing based on a Comic strip that I saw on DeviantArt, and asked for the artist permission to use.Īs for another piece of inspiration I got from this was that seeing all the times Spike either gets abused or just used as a joke for no reason got me thinking of something I like to call "The Bad Luck Cartoon Character", who is someone that for no real reason only exists to be having bad luck for others amusement.
