Artist comment:
 
Sometimes my subconscious goes off and really complicates thing for me. Since I have started having dreams in my Equestria dreamscape, the only character from my other dreamscapes that has joined me there has been Petina.
 
Now Petina knows she is product of my subconscious and has on several occasions gone and taken advantage, abused, that knowledge. Like myself, Petina has found Equestria a very nice place to visit. Therefore the little white unicorn/ mouse decided maybe some my other characters might enjoy being a pony. But which one?
 
So with that thought in her pretty head, Petina went rummaging around in my brain and found Carol Harper ||suggestive link ||. Perfect! Next Petina decided that if she appears in my dreams because she is a product of my subconscious then she should be able get into Carol’s dreams to since she also exists in my subconscious mind. From there she’d bring Carol back to my Equestria dreamscape. So long as Carol was asleep she too could have pony dreams! The annoying thing is that it worked.
 
At this point I realized that my subconscious had created an interesting question. In the Angel and Knight dreamscape there is a TV show called My Little Pony. I have not yet watched it in my dreams, so I don’t know how much it is like real world version. If I am having dreams in the My Little Pony world is it entirely my own version of the universe, or does Lauren Faust also exist in my dreamscape as an individual. If so am I and Petina sneaking into her dreams as characters that she is then dreaming of? I could imagine her waking up and wondering why she would want and go nuke the Everfree Forest
 
For her part Carol thinks that being a pony is like a dream come true. She is particularly happy that she got a carousel for her cutie mark. In fact Carousel is the name she has decided to adopt there.
 
I am much more ambivalent about the whole concept of Petina hijacking characters of mine and turning them into ponies. For one thing I am rather enjoying meeting completely new characters like Cogs, Grist and Black and Tan . Also I don’t want to drag any problems that exist in my other dreamscapes into Equestria. I guess I am treating Equestria like it was some national park that I don’t want overrun with foreign invasive species.
