As Velvet Remedy floated the blanket over me, covering my body, I swore I’d kill her.

If you need context, just know that the protagonist was about to pull off a rescue which had no possible positive outcome, but one of the companions shoots her with a paralyzing dart to prevent her from carrying it out. Way back when I first read this story, I remember this scene making me angry. Like, how dare an NPC prevent the video game main character from doing a side mission, eh? Re-reading it now though, I see that was the problem; Littlepip was in fact approaching the whole thing like a save-scumming gamer, consequences be darned. Lack of sleep and being high on super brain stimulants don’t help matters either, oof. So good on ya, best medic horse. :D

I had meant for this to look a little more humorous than it came out. Something light like that “Anticipation”, but I just kept wanting to add more background and detail. Too much detail, as a lot of it is clashing with itself. Hopefully it’s not too noticeable, lol.

Velvet Remedy had the dart gun pointed right at me.  Didn’t she know that wasn’t safe?  
Thwap!  
Ow!  I opened my mouth, words of surprise frozen on my tongue.  
Velevet Remedy shed a tear as she said, “I’m sorry, Littlepip.”  
What…What was happening?  
Velvet Remedy’s horn glowed a little brighter.  I heard the squeaking as the small red wagon rolled over, stopping behind me.  Velvet Remedy stepped closer and gave me a gentle nudge with one hoof, tipping my paralyzed body onto the wagon.  
She’d shot me on purpose!
