Page 98 - Happy Ending Forever

Here’s a thought experiment for you: Suppose Friendship is Magic had ended right here, for whatever reason. No slice-of-life episodes, just the two-part pilot with no series hook at the end.

DM: Okay. Everypony in Ponyville gathers to meet the Princess sisters. All the townsfolk are excited and pleased to have their royalty back. They are welcomed with great cheers, confetti, flowers… Spike’s very happy to see Twilight safe and sound… Luna’s just happy nopony seems to hate her… And yeah. All the little ponies in the magical land of Equestria lived happily ever after. The end.
Fluttershy: What? You mean… It’s over? Already?
DM: Thanks for playing, girls. It was epic, but there’s nowhere for the story to go from here. I don’t think we’ll be doing this again for a while.
