For My First Trick - Accidental Video

[meltsicecastles]

"Okay, no. No. Non non non. Uh-uh. I'm not embarrassing myself, again, the way I did LAST time I went to another world."

Hey, is that Trixie Lulamoon? She looks... good. She has more muscle and seems to have been eating better than - just say this can't be the native Trix, the one who spent time starving and farming rocks. Her cloak and wizard hat is still gaudy, but seems to be made of higher grade material, real silk and velvet.

The effect is ruined by her ranting with her back to a scroll, of course.

"This time, I'm going to ask who's in charge and who bears the Elements, I'm going to tell them exactly where I'm from and that I need to get back to my Ponyville, and I'm going to go home. No blinding a Princess! No kissing Lyra, Derpy, Carrot Top and Raindrops! No freaking out and attacking Twilight! Just - figuring - out - what's -"

She notices the scroll, and sort of... dumbly... stares at what she now knows is a two-way video transmitter.

"Merde. So much for not embarrassing myself. Okay, okay. Okay! I am Dame Trixie Lulamoon, I am emphatically not the Trixie you know if you know one, and could someone tell me where in Tartarus I am and who is in charge here, merci boucoup?"

Many an Equestria are ruled by the Princess of the Day, but also hold the Princess of the Night within that occupation!

[Yeah, she doesn't see what's wrong with talking the way she does all the time.]

No doubt you wish to know the very intricacies of this Equestria? The mare gracing your eyes with her presence shall be glad to tell you any and all takes within, so she grants you the opportunity to ask away!

('Oh, sun boil me like a crawdad, I was this bad, once?')

You can start by telling me all you know about this Equestria's would-be usurper.

[And with that, Trixie looses all her luster and her face goes flat.]

Ah, Zetta... He's... he's just overcompensating or something. He's got this "overlord" shtick he does all the time. He thinks that these eclipses of the sun and moon will force the princesses to step down, but he should know better that he'll loose.

Also be careful what you say around him. He likes reactions.

[meltsicecastles]

He'll go down in flames. Or rainbows. Or rainbow flames. Has 'fire weaponized friendship at him' been tried yet, or has that been deemed too risk...

Define "Reactions."

The bearers of the Elements shall no doubt defeat him in time. But no, Zetta hasn't been turned into rainbows yet.

Eh... it's... He likes to see me angry and flustered. Just... he intentionally tries to misconstrue things I say as some sort of innuendo.

[SN!Trixie seems to be more okay with that sort of stuff. She's only really bothered by it because she feels that Zetta isn't that close to her yet.

The outsider Trixie? Well...

3... 2... 1...]

(Welp.

She wordlessly, and telekinetically, retrieves a tumbler, a large ice cube, and a bottle of Samuel Clementine's Auld Fashioned Bourboun.

Pour.

Gulp.)

I'll share if ya need it, mon ami.

There's not really much of a need. It's just frustrating that he doesn't show me the respect I deserve at times.

Just... try to avoid him as much as you can and you'll be fine. I'll handle him.

Your loss, ma bonne auto. Monsieur Borboun here is a stallion of true taste and sophistication.

I can't stand idly by while somepony threatens an Equestria, even if it is not my own. If you run into zhis plothole first, Color Spray him in zhe face for me, s'il vous plaît.

Don't worry about him. He'll inevitably fail. I've been continuing to do my job all across Equestria whilst he has his little moment.

...Maybe Trixie shall try your drink at a later time, though.
