“In a few minutes, you won’t be able to feel anything below your
ribcage. Then you’ll be able to stay awake to watch the harvest.”

Huh, I guess it is an anaesthetic.

The harvest sounds ominous. Time to dig in deep?

Dash started to cry again. “Pinkie?” she choked
out.

“Yeah?”

“I want to go home,” Dash sobbed.

“Yeah, I can see wanting
to do that,” replied the party pony.

Heh.

“Of course you do, silly! Now hold on while I remove your guts.”

“Sometimes, I just wanna give up, just say ‘I’m
done with this mess’ and go to bed. But you know what? You can’t shrug off your
responsibilities. You got to pull yourself up and meet the challenges head on.
That’s the only way you’re gonna get ahead in life.”

Dash hung her head and cried.

So who gave you these responsibilities in the first place?

I’ve got ten bucks that say it was you.
