Trixie: “Another brilliant victory for the Great and Powerful leader of Team Starlight!”
Starlight: “…What exactly makes you the leader of Team Starlight?”
Trixie: “Because whenever the two of us are together, I’m the one that tends to take the most initiative.”
Starlight: “Your ‘initiative’ usually just gets us into trouble!”
Trixie: “You still go along with it every time! Thus making ME a leader.”
Sunburst: “She does have a point…”
Starlight: “I know she does! That’s the scary part!”

Trixie is in fact SO Great and Powerful, that she will be taking over the artist’s notes for this week’s Season 9 Retirement Party! Alas, it is only a mini this week, thank’s to a CERTAIN artist being busy with things that AREN’T basking in my magnificence! (and apparently having trouble figuring out a comic in general) I’m not happy about it, but… I suppose it’s better than nothing.
This week’s comic is, of course, based on Student Counsel, aka: “Team Starlight Gets Lost in the Woods for a While Because Silverstream is Bad at Communicating: the Episode”. Ah, I do love any episode starring me, and the wacky antics I get up to with my BFF Starlight (and her other friends too, I suppose). It’s a nice change of pace from focusing on Twilight Sparkle and her goody-four-shoes friends; Starlight’s group holds a rather unique collection of misfits and weirdos (other than Trixie, of course), and they’re all pretty entertaining in their own right. I LOVE to entertain, after all, and thus feel right at home among them.
But seriously, we have a lot of fun here in these brony-made fan comics, but overall, Trixie would say that Mudbriar isn’t… THAT bad. At least, Trixie understands what Maud sees in him, and the two do tend to play off of each other pretty well (they ARE rather similar, after all). I know several of my fans may find him “annoying” or “intolerable”, but take it from a pony who is used to being seen as “annoying”; we could do MUCH worse, and Trixie admires how passionate he is (…y’know, in his own, weird way…) about what he does.
Hope you all stay Great and Powerful, and remember to make time for what is most important! Despite the fact that Trixie is not in it, she hopes you look forward to the next episode anyway!
With him I wonder if he was completely sane but psychopathic before being petrified, and then his centuries of imprisonment kind of eroded his mind
Hey now, Discord was turned to stone for centuries, and he turned out just… um… okay, yeah, you have a point.
that’s good , because || I was imagining him going completely insane and impaling Maud with sticks, lots and and lots of sticks. And then just retreating into a corner where he gibbers incoherently||
It won’t be that bad… he’s still got Maud, and I’m sure she’ll bring him plenty of sticks…
And, realistically, I don’t think he’ll keep him a statue for that long at once. This was only ever meant to be a temporary thing.
Until a few weeks later when she realizes to her absolute horror and guilt that for the last few weeks her boyfriend has been trapped as a stone, completely conscious and unable to move or communicate in any way. meaning that to him those few weeks have probably felt like years, so he’s probably gone more than a little mad
Maud has no objections.
I like to think of it as a testament to her having a real friend for once and willing to let her ego go just a bit so she can name the team after a pony she cares so much about.
…Plus Maud and Sunburst are honestly closer to Starlight than Trixie. I’ve always called it “Team Starlight” because Starlight is the one that brought them all together.
even if Trixie is betterAs for the team name: wouldn’t Trixie prefer to name it after herself? Like “The Great and Powerful Trixie! and her pretty okay friends!” or something?
