    No she got it because she took a magical drug improperly. I think that drug is supposed to be used to restore your talent not grant new abilities.

    That sounds about right, though that's not the only thing it was advertised to be able to do... Edit: The flower used -in- the Drug was what messed up Applebloom. The drug that was being made had a ...subjective... function.

    Watch it again, by all indications after the first it was randomized and increasingly so. Its called a disease for a reason

    And magic is not a toy. You don't just get to manipulate it like stats on a game sheet very often. Reality is a generally harsh GM that knows all the exploits and likes to drop rocks on your head when you try.

    Also Applebloom has no spellcasting and is the wrong pony type for active spells.

    She admitted to randomly mixing a potion when Zecora left and putting the rest of the Heart's Desire in it, so that's generally a decent assumption. She's lucky that's -all- she ended up getting, given what Zecora was making.

    That's my point, if you can control the first and have a 'mastery' over magic you should be able to pull it off. Also since it's a magical affliction it might be able to grant magic. In balance terms it wouldn't work or if it did she might become a villain and have to overcome her desires to regain control of herself and become normal... but I was never good at thinking up story plots.

    Does such wisdom align with the codex? *Strokes nonexistent goatee*

    It doesn't say if it's a magical disease or not. Just a disease. And she wasn't looking to gain the ability to use magic; she was looking for her purpose in life, her special talent, her cutie mark. You have to have a horn to be able to cast magic, anyway. It just gave her the ability to perform multiple tricks......

    Also, in response to your spoiler, and I am not duplicating that Image, I just have to say this:

    I feel that the alchemical nature of the ingredient and the way potions seem to work (restoring teeth spontaneously) might make it possible. I also realize that she wasn't interested in using magic but if she was it might have been possible for the affliction to grant her a horn and complete mastery of magic. Also, psionics are better cooler than magic.

    Actually pulling it off would be a rather indication of AB's special talent: magic!

    Of course Twilight is doing that already, her talent is magic itself allowing her (in theory and with a lot of work) to use a much more vast array of magic then is normal.

    Or maybe potions because hey she DID get a pretty strong result from one random potion... which was brought up at the end of the episode and the CMCs went off to try.

    The issue you though is you keep trying to define the show along your lines. You can't do that. The show does that for itself. You must understand this before you can be accepted by the Chapter. Understand limits, taking one's time, and that reality is not as wish fulfilling as you would seemingly make it.

    Personally I do not think AB chose the first cutie mark either, and certainly not the ones that followed. She just wanted a cutie mark, any cutie mark, and she got one. If she had been able to choose any cutie mark to start with, I do not believe she would have picked the loopty hoop.

    Edit: It's the classic "be careful what you wish for, because no matter how smart you thought you were when you worded the wish the genie is still going to twist it somehow and screw you over"

    REPORTS FROM THE FRONT: XCOM ENEMY UNKNOWN

    FROM: SPYMASTER GENERAL PRINCE BLUEBLOOD
    TO: DIRECTOR CELESTIA OF THE XCOM PROJECT

    Spoiler
    Show
    ENTRY ONE:

    Dear Auntie Celestia,

    I'm glad you saw the wisdom of promoting me to this "XCOM" project. I will make sure it is run with all the dignity that royalty demands. As your hilarious paranoia about alien invasions is yet to be confirmed I have assigned Science Team to investigating why it is I'm so handsome. It's a tricky question. Send more money.

    ENTRY TWO:

    Dear Auntie Celestia,

    I sent a team out to Shutggerguarghurt or however that unpronounceable hovel is spelled and it turns out they were all incompetent losers who got themselves massacred. How do you expect me to run a global conspiracy if all I have to work with are rookies? Anyway, Fancy Pants made it back alive. I'll go tell him to stop screwing up. Honestly.

    ENTRY THREE:

    Dear Auntie Celestia,

    Nothing sends a better example to the riff-raff than leading from the front! I ordered Engineering to remove all helmets from all staff so they might properly appreciate my handsomeness as I do so. Would you believe the whining? Blah blah blah completely purposeless increase of lethality blah blah vanity project blah blah blah. I don't hear my squad complaining!

    My squad, incidentally, consists of Stephen Magnet, sniper, Hoity Toity, medic, and Fancy Pants, heavy. I have dubbed this team, "The Best Percent". I myself practise the ancient ways of assault because the highest kill tally belongs to me by rights!

    ENTRY FOUR:

    INTERNAL: I require a single set of custom-built low-profile mesh armour to protect my handsome face.

    ENTRY FIVE:

    Dear Auntie Celestia,

    Uh. Send help.

    ENTRY FIVE:

    Dear Auntie Celestia,

    I take it back, send the help away. Twilight Spangle won't stop regurgitating Science Team factoids, Raining Dash is trying to fire a sniper rifle while running, and Liar Heartstrings is stealing my glory. More, the big red one is a barbarian who keeps getting mud all over the vertibird floor even though I TOLD him there's a doormat.

    ENTRY SIX:

    Dear Auntie Celestia,

    I may have a small financial situation. On the plus side, Science Team is over-funded! They said they were working on a handsomeness enhancement device and, naturally, I filled the top section of my base with lab space to support them. On the minus side, I have no money.

    It's okay. I sold some alien tech to make sure I was able to buy the best kit that science team could dream up. I don't have enough for my minions so they're stuck using 17th century guns. I told them that they should pay for laser rifles out of their own money, should only cost them about 1.6 billion dollars a piece.

    But basically I'm stuck until I get enough money to build a satellite control centre, which will allow me to launch all these death satellites I have in my basement. Then I can blackmail world governments!

    Oh, and none of the peasants have bit the dirt yet. I'm as surprised as you are, though farmhand did come awfully close when I sent him on a hilarious suicide mission to capture an alien heavy. Good times.

    UFO 46
    Spoiler
    Show

    Dear Twilight,

    It has been relatively calm these last few days. Oh sure there were plenty of UFO sightings but usually the humans couldn't catch them. The humans think that the aliens are trying to find our bases. Hopefully these mind shields will prove their worth and keep us hidden. Just in case though we've begun researching plasma defenses.

    We did manage to intercept one UFO though and naturally our team was sent in. The mission itself was pretty simple as we were fighting the 'Floater' aliens. Besides their stylish capes they truly are not a challenge to defeat. One did shoot Big Mac point black with some sort of bomb but only managed to knock them both unconscious.

    Spike cleared the building that we landed beside and Rose managed to snipe one from across two fields and over a fence and a hedge! We managed to capture the UFO almost intact which is good because I need that Elerium-50 to finish my orders for the humans!

    Sincerely,

    Rarity Unicorn

    Hmm, I really like what you can actually see and what you hear is happening without riot in foreground :<

    Also, a bit of clarification on my stance on fanon:

    Spoiler
    Show
    After rethinking, I don't really mind fanon changing/distorting series - as long as you're creative, it's all good. You want to write Luna history? Think future for ponies? Sure! Go for it. Sky is the limit. Sadly, some "fans" take it far beyond, by grabbing something directly contradicted by canon, usually by finding one or two ambiguous scraps of material to build fanon on, and instead of proposing change/addition to canon, they try to force change on others. Ram their interpretation down everyone's throats, even if what they built their "canon" on was misunderstanding/mistake/wishful thinking/had no place in series in the first place.

    S2 was especially bad on this in second half - with 4 or 5 things that caused vocal minority to rise and between others behave literally worse than depths of 4chan. It was so bad two ships and three characters were pretty much soured to the large part of quiet majority (though not to the same degree). I just can't understand how supposed MLP fan can act like that, but then again, it's not like I haven't saw some examples of this even round these parts

    Also, some notes on...

    Crystal ponies:

    Hexagonal eye reflections, gradient hair, they are supposed to have crystal coat; Apparently, we only see Earth crystal ponies, with dark manes (Sombered?), Somber apparently went somewhere. Or, and weapons as cutie marks. Tum, te tume te tum.

    I really dig new canon eyelashes, usual copies of fake Rarity eyelashes really bothered me for some reason, we now have something canon and good looking, too

    So, tired ponies that seem freshly freed calmly going about their business despite RD and FS meddling are 'douches' now? Whut?

    That's a good take on fanon but other then the Derpy incident I wasn't aware of anything that cause a big fuss. Care to remind me?

    So, who wants to bet on how long it takes the fandom to try and make King Somber sympathetic after the episode airs, as it has done with all the villains?

    Howdy Twilight!

    How are things going over in North America? We shot down a UFO and cleared it pretty quick too. More of those Floater thingies. Easy peasy, they didn't even get a shot off! We're getting worried though as we're almost out of plasma clips. We've decided to build more but we just haven't been scavenging nearly enough from our fights.We might have to switch back to the human rifles if this keeps up.

    Your Friend,

    But it is odd that Applebloom already had a loopty-hoop. Or, at least we assume she did, unless she lied about the whole story. What are the odds? But, if anybody performs tricks like that, it'll be Scootaloo.
