1* Loop 4.8:
2-->"I honestly have no idea how to solve this." Twilight said, looking at the unconscious human lying on Fluttershy's lawn. "I didn't know this could happen."
3-->"Ooh! Ooh! I know!" Pinkie said. "You could make a conver-mmmph!"
4-->Twilight's hoof had gone into Pinkie's mouth without her looking. "[[TakeThat Let me make one thing clear, Pinkie]]. [[LetUsNeverSpeakOFThisAgain We Do Not Talk]] About [[Fanfic/TheConversionBureau The Bureau!]]"
5* Loop 4.9 has Twilight and Applejack's method of solving the Separatist problem in a ''Franchise/StarWars'' loop.
6-->'''Spike:''' Twilight will take your entire separatist movement apart!
7-->'''Count Dooku:''' Oh, I don't think so, young Jedi Knight. We are quite ready for one Jedi Master.
8-->(''Twilight and Applejack, both in Alicorn form, tear the roof off of the '''entire mountain''' and land in front of Dooku'')
9-->'''Count Dooku:''' [[BringMeMyBrownPants (in the tones of someone hoping he had spare trousers somewhere)]]... oh, you meant literally. In that case, Chancellor Palpatine is Lord Sidious, please don't kill me.
10* Loop 6.3: Twilight has found a way to make the other Mane Five ascend to Alicorns; do something stupendously awesome related to their special talents with their Element. Rainbow Dash flew halfway around the world in less than twenty minutes, Applejack terraformed Tattooine with Earthbending, Fluttershy befriended Chrysalis and the Changelings, Rarity made fifty-five masterwork dresses out of an equal number of materials (only thirty or so being fabrics, the others being substances like water or clouds). What did Pinkie Pie do? Made the Eldar party so hard before their civilization fell apart that they turned ''HER'' into Slaanesh!
11** Pinkie Pie, Warp Goddess of Celebration, terrifying [[Literature/CiaphasCain Ciaphas Cain]] (HERO OF THE IMPERIUM!!!), and apparently causing several Inquisitors to go mad just trying to figure out how she could hold a plate with her hooves.
12* Loop 6.4 shows the one thing that can reduce [[Franchise/MassEffect Sovereign]] to a quivering mass of fear.
13--> '''Sovereign:''' NO! IFYOUAREHERETHEPINKONEISHEREANDIFTHEPINKONEIS
14-->HERESHEWILLOHGODIAMSOFUCKEDFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCK-
15* Loop 10.4 and Discord's most diabolical plan yet for driving Celestia insane:
16-->'''Celestia:''' That Discord has returned? Yes. Yes he has. Also, he is re-organizing our tax system to more efficient form and has cleared several our laws to be more streamlined and, oh yes... ''he is not acting like Discord!'' He is... not chaotic! He's even organized the guard rotation to be clearer!\
17'''Luna:''' He just looked over the workers union proposal and reformed it into the most efficient organization We have ever seen. He is currently looking over our diplomatic relations.\
18'''Twilight:''' ... should we stop him?\
19'''Celestia:''' That's just it! We are not sure!
20* Loop 14.2 sees Celestia send enough tickets to the Grand Galloping Gala for all of Ponyville. Naturally, shenanigans ensue and Celestia wants to invite everyone again next year for how much they livened the event up. Twilight says she could, but everyone from Canterlot would likely boycott it. Celestia sees no problem with this.
21* Loop 14.3 features Twilight and Cadence having some fun with the Elements[[note]]Whenever the bearers use the Elements, Cadence teleports in while wearing a Sailor Fuku, and then proceeds to kick the problem[[/note]]. Celestia puts it best while unwittingly explaining it to Discord.
22-->'''Celestia:''' For some reason, whenever Twilight and her friends do... something, they summon a duplicate copy of my niece who kicks the problem until it is not a problem any more. Nightmare Moon comes back -- kicked in the face. Dragon causes problems in Ponyville -- kicked in the chest. Rampaging hydra? Kicked in all the faces. And then there was the Ursa Minor that got kicked in the fundament.
23* Loop 17.13. The looping Mane Six plan to deal with Nightmare Moon this loop by means of [[NoodleImplements the introduction of pizza to Equestria, a spare Lance of Longinus]] from ''Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion'', [[NoodleImplements and Spike's opera training, which can cause panties to spontaneously combust.]] However, Sombra interrupts their plans by replacing Celestia. And then, this happens.
24-->'''Granny Smith:''' "MUCKLE DAMRED CULT! 'AIR EH NAMBLIES BE KEEPIN' ME WEE MARES!?!?"
25-->'''Spike:''' "Oh, no. How did Granny Smith become [[Fanfic/OldManHenderson Old Mare Henderson]] again?!"
26* Loop 18.1: This shout-out. Just... this shout-out. And the in-universe reaction to it.
27-->When Nightmare Moon refocused, she was inside a comically large ice cube and there was a thrashing monster being forced backwards by two tridents and a leash.
28-->Pinkie beamed. "[[QuipToBlack Looks like you need to... chill off.]]"
29-->"[[Series/CSIMiami YYYEEEEAAAAHHHH!]]"
30-->Everyone jumped. "What was that?" several voices asked.
31* Loop 20.1:
32-->'''Rainbow Dash''': Wait, what just happened? Did you just disprove Trixie with science?\
33'''Twilight Sparkle''': Actually, it was logic. Proof by contradiction.\
34'''Rainbow Dash''': But we ''saw'' her! She was ''doing'' it!\
35'''Twilight Sparkle''': Anecdotal evidence counts for nothing.
36* Loop 20.2: Trixie's method for dealing with Nightmare Moon... and its aftermath:
37-->'''Trixie:''' Cured her! Got her drunk for real and we had a heart-to-heart, she got it all out of her system, and then I explained what was actually going on.
38-->'''Twilight Sparkle:''' Huh. Guess sometimes all a pony really needs is a shoulder to cry on.
39-->'''Trixie:''' Yeah... might not be a good method to try out again, though. Nightmare Moon can be a bit of a fighty drunk. Anyway, if Celestia asks, that's why Horseshoe Bay is now just, er, Horseshoe.
40* Loop 25.4: We finally see a [[Fanfic/TheConversionBureau Bureau loop]]. Twilight and Celestia are human, and they have to watch invading pony versions of themselves making xenophobia and magical conversion/genocide sound like a good thing. They proceed to get ''completely plastered'', and when they wake up they find that they used the Elements of Harmony, which resulted in the entirety of Equestria being banished to the moon.
41-->'''Twilight:''' Hey, where'd we get the other Elements from? I can only summon Magic, the others I have to get from the Loop if they're there...\
42'''Celestia:''' I believe we mugged your friends' counterparts for them. ''[winces]'' Wow, Applejack has a mean right hook. I'm going to have a nasty black eye for a while...
43* Loop 27.6: Trixie decides to have some fun as a master thief.
44-->'''Sergeant Stronghoof''': This is the third one of these crimes in the last month. Mode of operation is always the same. Jewellery stolen, box open, but the rooms are always locked. It’s a locked-room mystery, sir.
45-->'''Shining''': ...over half the population in this city is unicorns, sergeant. What’s so significant about a locked room?
46-->'''Sergeant Stronghoof''': Yeah, I know it’s not a big deal normally, but all the owners swear blind the rooms don’t normally have locks on them.
47* Loop 27.9: Pinkie Loops into the train going to [[Literature/HarryPotter Hogwarts]], ''alone''. Her Awake friends are elsewhere in the world as Muggles, well out of the way. Naturally, HilarityEnsues.
48** Pinkie's first letter to the rest of the gang pretty much nails down what's happening. Note that this is only an ''excerpt'':
49--->I'm no expert, but the fact that I still have earth pony magic and chaos goddess magic running through me, somehow, makes the normal magic I'm trying to learn act all kooky strange. The way I understand it is that it isn't like plugging a DC device into a wall socket with no converter, but more like prying open the battery case and stuffing it full of Waldorf salad, hot lava, and magical amulets; then hoping for the best.\
50\
51Half the time, my spells work just fine. A quarter of the time, they work, but are either way too powerful or barely powerful enough. And the last quarter of the time, strange things happen. The professors are still trying to figure out how I turned a regular feather into a giant angry unkillable purple tentacle plant that was also on fire.\
52\
53They say that that part of the castle will be safe in another few days or so. A week at most.
54** Applejack's reaction was also epic.
55--->'''Applejack:''' See. I told you she was fine. Everything is fine. I'm going to go home now and pretend really hard that magical Pinkie Pie is farther than only half the world away. Goodnight, all.
56* Loop 28.2: Nyx (from ''Fanfic/PastSins'', essentially a chibi version of Nightmare Moon) stands in for Nightmare Moon/Luna at all her public appearances.
57-->'''Nyx''' (in a childish squeaky voice): Oh, sure, it's fine for a pony to dress up as a chicken, but you get the deity of the night coming to her own festival as a pumpkin and suddenly they're "not in the spirit of the holiday." Well, hmph.
58** 28.3 also gives us a rare triple crowner-Twilight Sparkle giving Nightmare Moon therapy. After just a few sessions, her mask completely cracks and she switches from the vengeful villain to a quivering mass of [[TheWoobie woobieness]]. The immediate SmashCut from Nightmare Moon threatening all of Equestria with eternal night to her breaking down in Twilight's office is just too absurd not to laugh at.
59* Loop 29.8: Spike and Rarity have a spat. Which results in them dueling in the Frozen North, and concludes with Spike unconscious in Princess Luna's room, not to mention Luna angrily jabbing Spike with a spear in order to get her room back.
60* Loop 29.10: Rainbow Dash breaks the Loop bad enough for the Mane 6 to become their G1 counterparts, which would be fine for all of them, except for one tiny quibble on Twilight's part.
61-->'''Twilight''': ''I look just like my mother!''
62* Loop 37.3: It's the combination of minimalism and absurdity that does it.
63-->'''Rarity''': ...Why are we cuttlefish?
64-->'''Twilight''': I have no idea.
65* Loop 37.4: Diamond Tiara wakes up in a ''Series/{{Babylon5}}'' Loop, replacing Ivanova, and with Silver Spoon brainwashed beyond recognition by the Psi Corps, so she decides to take it out on someone, anyone. She gets a survey team.
66-->'''Diamond Tiara''': And one other thing to contemplate on your way back here; the Babylon 5 mantra. Lt. Tiara is always right. I will listen to Tiara. Tiara is next to Celestia. And, if this ever happens again, TIARA WILL PERSONALLY RIP YOUR LUNGS OUT! (''{{Beat}}'') Have a nice day.
67** The fact that the looping [[BridgeBunny Lieutenant Corwin]] is openly relieved that Ivanova's replacement is finally acting like her is the icing on the cake.
68* Loop 38.5 and the first visit of Lemon Rush[[note]]More commonly known as "Leman Russ"[[/note]] to Equestria, a Looper whose in-Loop identity is as a very young Earth pony in Fluttershy's care. When an unAwake Gilda roars in Fluttershy's face just as she did in the original 'Griffon the Brush-Off', Lemon Rush -- who is currently a young colt not even one-fifth Gilda's size -- proceeds to [[CurbStompBattle effortlessly dropkick Gilda so hard that she does backflips down the road, then jump up and down on her prone and twitching body]].
69-->'''Fluttershy:''' When did you learn to fight like that?\
70'''Lemon Rush (grinning):''' I'm a ''Primarch''. We were ''made'' good at fighting.
71** Arguably this is also a [=CMOA=], but it's here because of the mental image of Gilda getting knocked on her plot by a squeaky-voiced colt about the size of Rumble or Button Mash.
72* Loop 39.1 continues on from Loop 27.9, and has Pinkie recounting how she accidentally managed to deal with Quirrel, Lockhart, Snape and Umbridge. During all this she also managed to make a massive supply of Polyjuice potion, which Hedgwig gets into, and results in her and Gummy having kids. And then Pinkie decides to experiment on the Hogwarts lake squid in an attempt to create a cool pet for Ron as a replacement for his missing rat.
73** And according to Pinkie, Voldemort lost any pretense of subtlety and threw an enchanted rock at Harry instead of booby-trapping the Tri-Wizard Cup. It still worked.
74* Loop 40.2. Luna ends up in ''Franchise/SailorMoon'', replacing Sailor Moon's {{Familiar}}, the black cat Luna. Except her loop memories are so confused that all she has to go on is "find the moon princess." She naturally assumes that's referring to herself, so she accidentally steals Sailor Moon's spot and leads the Sailor Scouts against Queen Beryl herself. Oh, and she's still an alicorn, and horses are still not sapient in this loop.
75-->'''Tuxedo Mask:''' Wh-but--a ''horse?''\
76'''Luna:''' ''Pony''.
77* Loop 41.5. Remember the time Pinkie Ascended in the ''TabletopGame/Warhammer40000'' universe? It turns out Sweetie Belle was in that universe as well. She became the first Pinkie Pie [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CLursFZ9sro Noise Marine]].
78* Loop 41.8. Starting from the second paragraph, which incidentally is when Applejack's Loop Memories hit, like so;
79-->'''Applejack''': This all doesn't seem too bad, I reckon. The memories should be retur... OH, HAY NO!
80** Because they've looped into a 'verse where the [[NoKillLikeOverkill Seaponies]] are replacing the Colonial Marines in ''Franchise/{{Alien}}''. And Twilight and Applejack are replacing Ripley. The Seaponies react to the Xenomorphs in their own particular way.
81-->'''Captain Sealight''': You all heard the little filly. Nothing down on that planet but horrible non-befriend-y monsters. The poor things must be tired of always crawling around in the dark and gloom. Lets give them [[NukeEm some sunshine to play with]]!"
82-->'''Captain Sealight''': (after glassing the planet) Hello again, happy campers. Captain Sealight here once again. Our resident tactical pony, Sea Star, has expressed some concerns that some of the space monsters may be hiding deep inside the planet, and had not seen any of our shiny gifts. To remedy this, we have sent them a few [[EarthShatteringKaboom planet crackers]], [[RefugeInAudacity delightfully wrapped and complete with greeting cards]]. If you look out your window, you can all see how a new asteroid belt is made. This is Captain Sealight wishing you a super-fun day! Shoo bee doo!
83** And finally...
84-->'''Captain Sealight''': Shoo be doo, all you happy campers. As you all know, we have spent the last week in this system playing the super fun "lets drag the largest parts of the former planet and toss them into the sun" game. But as all good times tend to do, this one has come to an end for now. So with that, I'd [[FalseReassurance like to announce that we will leave this place and finally head back home]].
85-->'''Applejack''': Finally!
86-->'''Captain Sealight''': So without further ado, the Sealaco will be exiting the system and going into hyperspace. Right after we blow up the sun. [[CrossesTheLineTwice It's the only way to be sure]]. This is Captain Sealight saying "shoo be doo", everypony.
87* Loop 42.4: In Big Mac and Twilight's Princess Loop[[note]]A loop where Twilight and one other Looper use the Elements of Harmony to defeat Discord. They then divide the governance of Equestria between themselve after some fashion, and usually after a while the other Looper goes insane and Twilight has to banish them to the moon for a thousand years. Usually happens shortly after someone ascends to alicorn for the first time.[[/note]], Big Mac managed to set things up so that everyone outside an inner council was convinced that the two of them ''didn't actually exist.'' On the bright side, this did mean that Twilight didn't have to banish Big Mac to the moon.
88* Loop 42.6, part of one of the longer stories, has Twilight (on the ''VideoGame/XCom'' version of Earth) explaining to a dumbfounded UK police officer that she is the sole stockholder of a corporation in her own name, that she is legally a working animal employed by her own company, and that she is also her own animal handler. The combination is required to allow her to operate normally (as she's not human and would be viewed as an animal legally, despite her sentience), but how matter-of-fact she is about the whole thing makes it hilarious.
89** This is compounded by how she's tried to accommodate the officers in other ways as well:
90--> As if that was a cue, the exterior door opened and Twilight stepped out into the metal stairs, still wearing her overalls and hard hat, but also wearing over her wings a pair of giant foam rubber hands with a Nightlight Industries logo and '#1' on them. She pouted. "And here I was ready to come out with my hands up. I've watched your visual media, isn't that what police are supposed to say?"
91* Loop 45.9: Twilight has a Fused Loop with ''Series/DoctorWho'', where she has decades of fun with the Doctor. Right before she leaves, he reveals that ''he's not a looper''. He just figured it out and bluffed her the entire time. And then when she tries to retrieve the sonic lipstick she stored in her subspace pocket, she instead finds a note from Skuld informing her that the loop is Read-Only and nothing can be taken out of it.
92* Loop 46.2: Pinkiel, Angel of Parties. And then another Loop where Pinkie somehow managed to take over the ''Neon Genesis Evangelion'' world.
93** And her attempt at a ''Fanfic/NobodyDies'' style BadassBoast goes... wrong.
94-->'''Pinkie Pie:''' I am. Or Am I? I forget. And I'm not sure which bits are supposed to be said in Big Important Capital Letters. Is there a guide for this somewhere? Anyway... oh, right all the ominous threats and "grr, I'm awesome, fear me" stuff. And something about "the Base Earth", but really, that just seems kind of racist. Unless it's there in the sense of there being an Acid Earth somewhere. What? What do you mean I'm out of time? Who's in charge of this recording studio anyway? ''Fiiine''. I Am the Pony of Celebration. The Joy of Faust. I Am Pinkiel. I have come. To party.
95* Loop 46.8: Just... the entire thing, from Nightmare Moon to Discord, Poor Discord.
96* Loop 48.8: Luna, as Nightmare Moon, decides to upstage Celestia by getting rid of the ''real'' terror of the town.
97-->'''Luna:''' I have banished the rabbit known as Angel, to the Moon, forever.
98-->[[{{Beat}} (Beat in which Fluttershy faints)]]
99-->'''Big Mac:''' ''THREE CHEERS FOR QUEEN NIGHTMARE MOON! ALL HAIL THE QUEEN!''
100* Loop 50.7, and Applejack's attempt at [[NeverLiveItDown potato cider]], where she somehow created a form of acid instead of potato-based alcohol. Best of all is Twilight's reaction.
101-->'''Twilight:''' (after a massive coughing fit) Has it gone dark all of a sudden?
102-->'''Applejack:''' Er... nope.
103-->'''Twilight:''' Ah. Then I would appear to have gone blind.
104** Twilight has to ascend to shake off the effects. Spike starts shooting flames. Peewee bursts into flames. Discord bursts into flames. Meanwhile Berry Punch tries it, and it [[NoSell doesn't do a thing]].
105* Loop 50.11, and Twilight's reaction to a variant Loop that has Equestria as ''Literature/NineteenEightyFour''-esque total gray dystopia:
106-->'''Twilight:''' [[TranquilFury Pinkamena Diane Pie.]]\
107'''Pinkie:''' Yes, Twilight?\
108'''Twilight:''' [[GodzillaThreshold You know all those things I normally ask you not to do?]] '''[[GodzillaThreshold Do]]''' [[GodzillaThreshold them.]]
109** The result? "Friend Pinkie Is Watching You. But Only When It's Not Creepy."
110* Loop 50.13: Twilight managing to impress some dragons by stating that Spike can (emphasis present in the original text) ''clean up after himself''.
111* The Wedding:
112** Luna and Celestia get in an argument over when the wedding should be ("Weddings are ''traditionally'' held during the day, Luna!") and Luna threatens to bring in Nyx for an extra vote. Twilight puts her hoof down and says the ceremony will be at dawn--twilight time.
113** Two changelings wake up after a bender to discover that they apparently thought Shining Armor and his sister would make a cute couple, and started acting it out in public using shapeshifting (changelings don't have much of an incest taboo). They wake up in bed the next day, briefly forgetting that the other is a changeling.
114** Rarity gets Blueblood committed to an asylum to make sure he wouldn't interfere.
115** [[Franchise/PiratesOfTheCaribbean Captain Jack, Gibbs,]] [[Literature/CiaphasCain Commander Cane, and Jurgen]] crash through the window at the reception (which coincidentally is made of sugar crystal) and land in a spot that Twilight just happened to clear for them. Gibbs says coming in this way was the only way they could keep Cane from realizing what was happening and teleporting away. He still screams when he sees Pinkie.
116--->'''Jack:''' Mate, mate, Oi! Stop that, you're embarrassing yourself, mate! Matey, we have been invited to the wedding of the... ever, really. Everyone who is anyone anywhere in the multiverse has been invited. And they're all seeing you make a fool of yourself because of one mare. Why, it might even make them think that you're in love with her of all the silly things.\
117'''Cane:''' But-but--\
118'''Jack:''' Yes, yes. The Eye of Parties, and all that. I know. But really, how many times was that?\
119'''Lemon Rush:''' Three hundred and sixty seven times.\
120'''Jack:''' See, an utter non-event in the grand scheme of things.
121** Various loopers who couldn't make it send letters with well-wishes. Most are heartwarming. One is not.
122--->"Your passion is pure and strong, so...." Twilight sighed, facehooving. "...have loads of mindblowing sex for me. Signed Wild Temptress, Pinkie's brother on the throne." Also known as Slaanesh, but...\
123Various eyes turned to the pink mare, who shrugged awkwardly. "It's a long story."
124** Cane's speech is done in his normal FirstPersonSnarker style.
125--->Nevertheless, on sighting the presence of Lord Russ, I eventually recovered myself with the sure knowledge that, at least, any damnation that occurred would be technically his fault.
126** Rarity and Spike ask for only simple gifts at their weddings, like a toaster. They receive a number of items that can create toast... and general havoc, but there is a toast setting!
127--->'''Rarity:''' ... Sweetie, that's an adjustable-output pony-portable plasma anti-tank cannon.\
128'''Sweetie Belle:''' It has a 'toast' setting! It's in between 'sunburn' and 'political protest'.
129* Loop 53.6: Princess Luna derails the Loop before it even began.
130-->'''Book:''' None of thy day-loving ponies enjoyest my night? Well, then thou knows what, forget thy ponies!" Nightmare Moon declared, "Verily, I shall make mine own ponies! [[WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}} With blackjack, and... and nightclubs]]!"\
131And so the Queen of the Night departed to her celestial orb, and it vanished into the dark among the stars. But on the longest day of the thousandth year, it is said that she will return to show off her new subjects, demanding that all acknowledge "whose ponies are better now?!!"
132* Loop 54.3: In the ''Webcomic/GirlGenius'' Loop, we get Rainbow Tryygvasen, AVIATRIX ADVENTURER! Complete with a catchy and [[SpontaneousChoreography spontaneous]] musical number, in spite of Rainbow being chained to a particularly isolated secret dungeon in the Baron's airship.
133* Loop 55.5: Nightmare Moon turning the moon into a resort, and presenting a limited-time offer to the citizens of Ponyville, with a free and suspiciously familiar cuddly toy included in the deal.
134* Loop 55.6: Luna and Celestia get their scripts mixed up, resulting in Celestia declaring no-one respects her night.
135* Loop 55.11: The MLP Loopers and their increasingly ridiculous attempts to open the mystery box.
136* Loop 55.13: The description of Twilight's Loop-enhanced scanning technologies, capped off with this;
137-->'''Narration:''' Of course, there was still a thing on ([[Franchise/TheHitchhikersGuideToTheGalaxy Arthur Dent's]]) head with blinking multi-coloured lights on it, because if you're not going to have blinky lights, why bother?
138** The Vogon's reaction when Ivory Scroll finds a bureaucratic way to stop them from destroying Equestria:
139-->WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? OF COURSE WE DIDN'T PUT THE BID OUT TO LOCAL LABOR! WHAT FAIRY RACE IN THEIR RIGHT MIND WOULD BID ON A CONTRACT TO DESTROY THEIR HOME REALM?
140-->That same not-quite-audible voice whispered on the loudspeakers.
141-->"YES, I KNOW IT'S A REGULATION!" The alien voice wailed in despair. "IT'S A BLOODY STUPID, IDIOTIC, IMPOSSIBLE REGULATION! AND SINCE I AM A BLOODY STUPID, IDIOTIC, IMPOSSIBLY BUREAUCRATIC MEMBER OF MY BLOODY STUPID, IDIOTIC, IMPOSSIBLY BUREAUCRATIC SPECIES, AND JUSTLY PROUD OF THE FACT, I HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO FOLLOW IT, YOU HORRIBLE LITTLE CREATURE!"
142* Loop 56.1: Twilight wakes up Princess Celestia as part of (supposedly) a StableTimeLoop where future!Twilight gave her explicit instructions on how to steal the Elements from the castle, including all six Element Bearers (and Celestia) wearing {{Spy Catsuit}}s and making use of a Heartsong to invoke WithCatlikeTread. Then she saves the Crystal Empire and is about to be crowned queen, at which point it is revealed that ''Twilight wasn't Awake yet''.
143-->"Why didn't Future Twilight mention this? Maybe she hasn't figured it out yet, and I loop sometime soon? But where do I find the spell? Is it somewhere in the city? I'm too young to be a queen--"\
144Twilight stopped mid-panic as she Woke up. Blinking, she checked her loop memories. Little hints told her the others were Awake, and a big hint from Pinkie in the form of the Gilbert and Sullivan Heartsongs.\
145She looked up at her friends, and asked: "Did I just ''prank myself?''"
146* Loop 56.3: Sombra replaces Ditzy, and Ditzy replaces Sombra. The Crystal Empire winds up reappearing in the middle of the desert.
147-->'''Sombra:''' '''MUFFINS.'''
148* Loop 57.7: Twilight and Rarity versus an evil witch on the [[Literature/{{Discworld}} Disc]], incurring the annoyance of Granny Weatherwax as she can't stand for people just killing witches willy-nilly, and they try to sort out if said witch was actually evil or not. Snark ensues.
149* Loop 57.9 Nyx Sparkle replaces Nyx of the ''Franchise/{{Persona}}'' loops, and goes a little off-script:
150-->'''"No."''' The Avatar said in all of its voices. '''"The night must come. My mistress demands it."'''\
151"But why-"\
152Junpei was cut off by the huge shadow. '''"Enough. She is here."'''\
153The Avatar shuddered before a deeper, ominous and powerful voice flowed through it. '''"I AM NYX. I AM THE NIGHT. I AM COME."''' The voice bellowed. '''"I HUNGER FOR YOUR SOULS, BUT A FITTING SUBSTITUTE WILL SUFFICE."'''\
154Oh, this couldn't be good.\
155'''"I.\
156DEMAND.\
157CUPCAKES."'''
158* Loop 60.13: Twilight winds up replacing the protagonist of ''VideoGame/{{Marathon}}'', where AIIsACrapshoot doesn't quite cover it. Who replaces Durandal? Well... [[Franchise/{{Terminator}} Skynet.]] Who's stoned out of her gourd.
159* Loop 60.14: The last few parts in this particular series, (Twilight is stuck in the ''Webcomic/GirlGenius'' universe as Agatha and is basically tired of the Loop's blatant plot railroading and cruelty towards the people of the world) ends at a particularly great moment. All the Awake Equestrian loopers that are in the world are finally together: including Pinkie as Mechanicsburg Castle, the original Crusaders as the Jaeger trio, and Rainbow Dash as '''Othar Trygvassen: Gentleman Adventurer!''', the castle is finally under Twilight's control, the Baron transferred control of the Empire to Fluttershy (as Gil), and it ends with Twilight being [[BoltOfDivineRetribution struck by lightning]] before putting into effect her '''MAJOR''' reforms.
160* Loop 63.9: A Fused Loop with the ''Franchise/{{Transformers}}'' has an attempted peace negotiation between Optimus and Megatron interrupted by the sudden and unexpected betrayal of- OK, its just Starscream again. But then the usual scenario goes off the rails.
161-->'''Megatron:''' And here I thought today was going to be boring. Or would you rather do the honors?\
162'''Optimus Prime:''' By all means, feel free to enjoy-\
163'''Rainbow Dash (flies out of the nearby crowd):''' AW YEAH! [[WebAnimation/DeathBattle Looks like SOMEPONY just asked for a REMATCH]].[[note]]Season 1, Episode 17 of Death Battle was 'Starscream vs. Rainbow Dash'. She curbstomped his shiny metal flank.[[/note]]\
164'''Megatron:''' Is that a rainbow mane?\
165'''Optimus Prime:''' Yes.\
166'''Megatron:''' Is she the one that-?\
167'''Optimus Prime:''' Yes.\
168'''Megatron:''' Is she Awake?\
169'''Optimus Prime:''' (with extreme satisfaction) '''Yes.'''\
170'''Megatron:''' Well. On second thought, there are indeed satisfactions to be had outside of battle. By all means, carry on ''my lord'' Screaming Star!\
171'''Starscream (backing away):''' Er, actually, I was wondering if it was too late to apply for a position as-\
172At that point Rainbow Dash tackled the would-be changeling lord in midair, and for several minutes to follow Screaming Star lived up to his pony name.
173* Loop 63.14
174-->'''Twilight:''' Rarity?
175-->'''Rarity:''' Yes, Twilight?
176-->'''Twilight:''' Why are we sitting in this box watching a third-rate variety show?
177-->'''JustForFun/StatlerAndWaldorf:''' That's what we've been wondering for forty years!
178* Loop 63.15: Pinkie Pie as a supervillain. And yes, she is Awake.
179-->"''WHOPEE! My newest plan is a BRILLIANT success! Now once we the Nutty Muddies factory, we can begin with the second stage - MUSICAL NUMBERS!"'' (giggles) "''At this rate, not even C-Force will be able to stop me from PARTYFING THE EARTH!''"
180* Loop 64.2, and Discord's attending an Equestrian party in the form of a male Alicorn... and being positively swarmed by star-struck mares.
181-->'''Discord:''' HELP! I NEED AN ADULT!
182* 69.11: ''Series/StargateSG1'' loops into Equestria. Sam doesn't understand why Celestia is giving her a DeathGlare... until she realizes she's the ''Princess of the Sun''.
183-->'''Sam:''' You blow up ''one'' sun and they never let you hear the end of it.
184* Loop 69.17: A changeling sends Princess Cadence a letter asking "What is love? P.S. Don't hurt me no more."
185* Loop 70.5: Ivory Scrolls visits the ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'' universe, replacing a ninja with a number of paperwork tricks. At the end, she's learned enough of weaponizing paperwork to, in her next loop, hit Nightmare Moon with [[Webcomic/TheOrderOfTheStick Explosive Runes.]] Or at least enough exploding tags in microdot writing to do the same thing.
186* Loop 71.1: All of it. A MoneySpider / RandomlyGeneratedLoot dispenser, appropriately named {{Roguelike}}, shows up in Ponyville, and does his thing for a while before being tracked down. Loot collected includes a 'Blinding Greatclub of Deceit' (a [[Franchise/MenInBlack neuralizer]]); a 'Sapient Headband of Guisarms' (a very clear ShoutOut to ''ComicBook/{{Empowered}}''), and a spellbook of 'Sapphire Shot' (which summons... well... [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin a shotglass of liquid sapphire]]).
187* Loop 71.2: Gilda manages to go through ''VideoGame/{{Borderlands 2}}'' without killing anyone... until she meets Face [=McShooty=].
188-->'''Gilda:''' You know what? You're a chlorophylling weirdo.\
189'''Face [=McShooty=]:''' YES, I am so annoying that you're pissed off enough to shoot me in the face!\
190'''Gilda:''' I'm not going to shoot you in the face!\
191'''Face [=McShooty=]:''' Hey. Hey! Wanna know a secret? I'm a level 1 MLE and I'm going to destroy this loop forever so shoot me in the face!\
192'''Gilda:''' Wait, what? No, I refuse to believe that you're looping.\
193'''Face [=McShooty=]:''' If I ever make it to Equestria, I'm going to make sure it isn't a sanctuary loop! Doesn't that make you want to shoot me in the face COME ON SHOOT ME IN THE FACE ALREADY!\
194'''Gilda:''' Tree damn it you're looping...\
195'''Face [=McShooty=]:''' SHOOT ME IN THE FAAAAAAAAAAAACE!
196* Loop 72.6: When a nonAwake Celestia goes to congratulate Twilight on purifying Nightmare Moon, she is confronted with a ''very'' confusing lineup for the bearers of the Elements: Twilight has Loyalty, [[LiteralSplitPersonality Nyx]] has Magic, [[MadGod Discord]] has Laughter, the [[{{Irony}} Flim-Flam Brothers]] have Generosity, Chrysalis has Honesty, and ''[[RefugeInAudacity Sombra]]'' has Kindness. Of course, the Flim-Flams are Changelings and 'Sombra' is a disguised Luna, but Celestia doesn't know that.
197** Twilight muses it's possibly the fastest she's ever been crowned a Princess without ascending first.
198* 74.1: [[Series/{{Babylon 5}} The Centauri]] attack Equestria, and are making reasonable headway. That is, until they abduct Pinkie. ''Awake'' Pinkie.
199-->The shadow ship had finally arrived at Za'Ha'Dum and unloaded its captured cargo. Feeling the presence of something new, the first one that called himself Lorien, the self-described most ancient being in the galaxy, emerged from his self-imposed isolation to look upon a small pink grinning pony.\
200Slowly, he turned towards the Shadows who had come out to revere him and spoke in a hushed whisper, "You have no consummate idea what you have brought to this place."\
201Then he turned into a bright energy orb and fled the planet at FTL speeds, changing course at random as he streaked his way out of the Milky Way galaxy entirely.
202* Loop 75.4: Pinkie Pie versus [[Film/TheAvengers2012 Loki]] while he's stuck in a cell. Loki tells Pinkie to "do her worst". So she does. Twelve days of "Nyan Cat" on a continuous loop, with the volume fluctuating at random. Loki loses the ability to speak coherently.
203* Loop 76.6: Twilight challenges Dash to an alicorn race. Twilight wins... because she had been practicing the "random" path for countless loops and practiced against [=unAwake=] Dash even more.
204-->'''Twilight:''' And now that I've beaten all Alicorns and all Loopers and proved that I am the best flyer of all time, I will withdraw from the Alicorn Racing Cycle as undefeated Champion. No rematches.\
205'''Dash:''' WHAT THE--
206* Loop 77.5 has Twilight telling all the Loopers in Equestria about the prior loop, which can only be described as the most ridiculous SoapOpera ever. There were dozens of fake pregnancies (most of them between the lesbian couples), melodramatic plot twists, evil twins and ''435'' marriages between Loopers alone. Also, every single Looper apparently got married to Prince Blueblood at some point in time during that single Loop. And Twilight has pictures of all of it.
207--> '''Twilight:''' I do, now and forever, dominate the Blackmail-Material contest.
208* Loop 80.1: Twilight asks what Ditzy's cutie mark is for. Again, and again, and again...
209* Loop 80.14: The Cutie Mark Crusaders are a genin team in ''Naruto''. Meanwhile, Pinkie Pie, Applejack, and Trixie are Kakashi's former genin team... who return to Konoha just in time to meet Team Seven.
210* Loop 82.3: a bored Rainbow Dash decides to be a {{Jerkass}}.
211* Loop 83.3: An Awake Princess Luna going [[WesternAnimation/OneFroggyEvening Michigan J. Frog]] on Ponyville for her usual Nightmare Moon debut.
212-->''Hello my ponies, hello my subjects\
213Hello to Ponyville\
214Open your sleepy-eyes\
215Celestia's gone bye-bye\
216Bow to me soon now, I'm back from the moon now,''
217
218-->''The moon was such a bore\
219Oh, baby the night will last forevermore!!''
220
221** Pinkie Pie is the only one in the room to react. She asks for an encore.
222* Loop 84.20: The God-Emperor of Mankind loops in as the Emperor of Equestria. Except he's ''Awake'', so he can't even get through giving Leman his quest (Leman is Replacing Twilight) before he bursts out laughing from all the horse puns. Leman just rolls his eyes and leaves.
223-->"Well, we're doomed," Rush muttered to the guard team he'd picked up along the way.\
224Candy Cane nodded morosely. The sight of the Cutie Mark Chaos Gods was yet another sign that this would ''not'' be a quiet loop.
225* Loop 86.3 is the Equestrian Loopers (and some guests) playing "Never Have I Ever". Words don't do it justice.
226** While there's far too much to repeat here, one sample to whet peoples' appetites:
227-->'''Discord:''' Never have I ever caused someone to drink in 'Never Have I Ever'.
228-->'''Applejack:''' So, if'n we drink... that mean he's lyin', an' we don't drink?
229-->'''Twilight Sparkle:''' New rule. Paradoxical statements are not valid turns.
230** Here are three more samples:
231-->'''Sleipnir (Administrator of the MLP Loops):''' I've never been to Eiken! Drink up, bitches! (before going into a drunken slumber)
232-->'''Twilight Sparkle:''' We do kinda deserve this one. What with all that 307 Ale we kept spiking his drinks with.
233-->'''Trixie:''' After all those deity specific rounds, Trixie is amazed he was still sober enough to think of that one.
234
235--> '''Zecora:''' Not in any sort of where or when, ever have I a mother been.
236-->(Most of the room drank at that one, and explanations were demanded of several.)
237-->'''Rainbow Dash:''' Hey, I've adopted Scoots plenty of times to qualify.
238-->'''Rarity:''' Weird variants where Sweetie Belle is my love child from a young teen affair. My parents kept up the charade of her being my sister to protect my reputation.
239-->'''Applejack:''' Same with me and 'Bloom.
240-->'''Pinkie:''' Don't you wanna hear mine?
241-->'''Applejack:''' Not really, sugarcube. I don't wanna hear about how you raised Cthulhu or somethin'.
242-->'''Pinkie:''' Silly! I raised Discord! Remember that Loop where we were all raising those normally older than us?
243-->'''Applejack:''' Oh, yeah. Forgot about that one...
244-->'''Vinyl Scratch:''' Apparently Rares was the result of a drunken fling. Dropped her off with some friends cause we both knew I'd be a bad mom, then a couple of years down the line I Awoke. She didn't.
245-->'''Rarity:''' (sighed) Yes, that happens sometimes, although you usually portray yourself as 'auntie Vinyl.
246-->'''Vinyl Scratch:''' I managed to convince you to tour with me for a bit, though!
247-->'''Sweetie Belle:''' (breaks out laughing) This I've gotta see!
248
249-->'''Cheerilee:''' I've never been married.
250-->(A good portion of the room ducked for cover while trying to drink. Cadance rockets into Cheerilee's face)
251-->'''Cadance (Wedding-obsessed Alicorn of Love mode: ACTIVATE!):''' ''WE MUST FIX THIS!''
252
253** Heck, just Discord's attempt to explain why he didn't want to take a turn in the first place, before he resorted to blocking with a paradox:
254-->'''Discord:''' Oh come now. You know that if I could think of anything I haven't done, ''I'd do it''.
255
256* Loop 87.4, where de-aged Luna/Nightmare Moon, Chrysalis, Discord, Sombra, and an [=unAwake=] Trixie ended up in the roles of the Cutie Mark Crusaders, Diamond Tiara, and Silver Spoon (the latter two [=unAwake=])... and the "CMC" decide to run with the gag as far as they can.
257-->(as the parade float starts careening wildly out of control during 'One Bad Apple', everypony looks at Discord for getting their sabotage instructions wrong)\
258'''Discord:''' Hey, you asked me to follow a plan ''and'' the laws of physics. We're lucky it's right side up.
259
260-->(as the float is about to head over the cliff)\
261'''Chrysalis:''' Shouldn't we ''do'' something?\
262'''Discord:''' Oh, very well. (mugging outrageously for the camera) ''Look at how fast its going! We'll definitely get our race-car building cutie marks for this!''\
263(the float immediately comes to a halt. Luna trots over to find out what the buck happened)\
264'''Luna:''' It would appear the wood we used was too fresh-cut. The axle is all gunked up with resin.\
265'''Discord:''' Murphy and I go ''way'' back. He owes me a few favors.
266
267** Also, Pinkie's response to Twilight interrupting "Cadance"'s wedding, after having been replaced by a robot.
268--->'''Pinkie:''' (pointing at fake-Twilight) But if she's Twilight, and you're Twilight, and I'm Pinkie Pie, and the conductor is wearing plaid socks, then [[Radio/ImSorryIHaventAClue how many stops 'til Mornington Crescent]]?\
269'''Discord:''' [[BreathlessNonSequitur Seven over Kumquat.]]
270** In the wedding the villain role that normally goes to Chrysalis instead goes to "Singularity," an older (and [=unAwake=]) {{Cyborg}} Applebloom, who does a shockingly good job at conquering Canterlot. The "CMC" take notes.
271* Loop 89.15, which pokes fun at the show's habit of having tons of [[SealedEvilInACan sealed evils]] just laying around willy-nilly[[note]]In this case, the 'Inspiration Manifestation' spell[[/note]]:
272-->'''Twilight:''' Rarity? You know that book in the Princess's old library? The one behind the secret door, locked iron door, with the staircase that crumbles after you remove the book?\
273'''Rarity:''' Which one, Twilight? There are quite a few, you know.\
274'''Twilight:''' The one covered in spikes, containing a spell which grants the caster dark magical abilities but which eventually drive them mad with power.\
275'''Rarity:''' You're going to need to be a bit more specific.
276* Loop 90.18, where all the loopers play a prank on all the high society ponies at the Gala by pretending it's the end of the world due to Pinkie Pie's mis-baking a dessert - which then starts to emit waves of plaid. The loopers all scream [[WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}} "Everypony out of the universe!", then stuff themselves into their subspace pockets in a way that makes it look like each of the ponies ate themselves completely starting with their tail.]]
277-->'''Prince Blueblood:''' (running in circles while trying to eat his own tail) How do you get out of the universe? HOW DO YOU GET OUT OF THE UNIVERSE?"
278* Loop 93.6: Pinkie Pie manages to take over the Borg when they tried to assimilate Equestria. She replaces the cubes with flying cupcakes. As in actual, oversized cupcakes with engines.
279-->"We are the Pies. Lower your shields and join the party below. We will add your confectionery distinctiveness to our own. Your Federation will adapt to spread happiness to all four corners of the galaxy. And we have cake."
280* Loop 94.2, and Twilight's explanation of why Pinkie Pie is the only mare for a certain job.
281-->'''Twilight Sparkle:''' We mean the real Pinkie Pie. OUR Pinkie Pie. Chaos Goddess of Parties Pinkie. Fun Lord of the Sith Pinkie. The Pinkie Pie that makes shoggoths run gibbering in terror.
282* Loop 94.5: Cheerilee loops in as ruler of Equestria and institutes a golden age through perfect education for all. She also details a prophecy about the immortal and eternal Anchor of Reality, an unfathomably powerful unicorn mare. A thousand years later Twilight Awakens, answers a few simple questions, and gets her loop memories just in time to realize she has confirmed Cheerilee's prophecy and fallen into a thousand-year prank.
283-->"Oh Wych."\
284"She knew the Secret Name of Great Teacher Three Flowers, just as the Prophecy has foretold! All Hail Twilight Sparkle! All Hail the Anchor of Reality!" The filly shouted. With that Celestia, Luna, Discord and Chrysalis burst from their hiding places and prostrated themselves before her.
285* Loop 95.2: Trixie's unconventional Elements of Harmony
286-->'''Trixie:''' Spike showed his Loyalty by growing to the size of a small whale! Chrysalis showed her Kindness by putting up with me! Zecora showed her Generosity by paying for the first round at the bar! Berry showed her Laughter by making up some really good puns for the names of her cocktails! And Gilda showed her Honesty by beating up a manticore!
287-->'''Nightmare Moon:''' Those are ''not'' virtuous acts!
288-->'''Trixie:''' I think you'll find everyone who knows me considers putting up with me for more than ten minutes to be an inherently virtuous act. Oh, by the way, the sixth element is Magic. Boom.
289-->(''Nightmare Moon gets blasted by the Elements'')
290** Apparently even Zecora's business card rhymes.
291** Berry Punch solving the Appleoosa situation by getting both sides ''incredibly'' drunk.
292** Trixie's idea of "friendship reports" also leaves something to be desired.
293--->'''Princess Celestia:''' Dear Twilight. Please stop sending me friendship reports. It is becomingly increasingly clear that they will all, for the foreseeable future, be about why explosives are not toys.
294** Zecora's version of the MMMM, the ZZZZ, is declared by Pinkie to have ''too much sugar'' after just one bite. Pinkie then immediately collapses.
295* Loop 96.5, and Discord's confrontation with Tirek:
296-->'''Discord:''' Your mistake is thinking that ''they'' have corrupted ''me''. I assure you, it's quite the opposite.\
297'''Tirek:''' These enfeebled equines are your idea of chaotic? *snorts* You ''have'' been tamed.\
298'''Discord:''' The average pony will ''always'' be boring as mud next to the exceptional ones. *pulls down a chart displaying a bell curve* It's why they're average. Wait... when did I learn ''statistics''? I '''hate''' knowing the odds!
299** But he still makes his point:
300--->'''Discord:''' Did you know that Celestia once banished the entirety of Equestria to the Moon so that she could take time off to do some surfing? Or that Luna has occasionally turned the Moon into a spaceship and taken it on joyrides? And that's positively ''tame'' next to what Tia's student gets up to, to say nothing of the sheer variety of tree sap related mayhem I've been privy to. [...] I'm freer than I've ever been, and all the better for it because I have friends who, despite their protestations, are just as crazy as I am! You really don't have anything to offer me.
301** And then he strands Tirek on desert island... with a new roommate.
302--->'''Tirek:''' For the ''last time!'' Unless granulated silicate counts, there are no '''damnable crystals here!'''\
303'''Twilight Sparkle:''' (looks at the bickering Tirek and Sombra, then at Discord) Really?\
304'''Discord:''' Unless you can find me new episodes of Gilligan's Island, this is going to keep happening.
305* Loop 98.1, where Celestia demonstrates that after enough Looping even your archvillains just stop being taken seriously.
306-->'''Tirek:''' And do you really think you can win this, little pony?\
307'''Celestia:''' Oh, I think I can win this [[{{Beat}} *dramatic pause*]] with a pineapple stuck on my horn! (sticks a pineapple on her horn) Feel free to try and taste my magic! All you'll get now is a delicious pina colada.\
308'''Tirek:''' ... are you drunk?\
309'''Celestia:''' (giggles) Not telling! And now, boot to the head!\
310(Celestia dropkicks Tirek through a mountain. Cadance, Twilight, and Luna hold up cards reading "7.7", "8.4", and "4.2" respectively.)\
311'''Celestia:''' Sheesh, family members are the harshest critics.
312** Other scenes from this fight include Celestia reacting to Tirek's WaveMotionGun by getting out her plasma-proof surfboard and ''riding the shockwave''.
313--->'''Celestia:''' Look at me! I'm gleaming the beam!
314** And the big finish:
315--->'''Tirek:''' (utterly exhausted) I... I cannot best you, Celestia.\
316'''Celestia:''' YES! ALL HAIL ME! REGENT AND STILL CHAMPION OF THE BEACH!
317** [[MemeticMutation "So tell me, Tirek. Do you like... bananas?"]]
318** In the same chapter, Loop 98.6 has Discord telling Big Mac about a loop that made him look sane by comparison: a trip to the VideoGame/CookieClicker universe.
319---> '''Discord:''' [[AlwaysABiggerFish There are darker, more terrible things in the Multiverse than I]], Big Macintosh, and in my last Loop, I witnessed one. [[HumanoidAbomination Tendrils of wrinkled flesh and writhing dough stretching from city to city, laying waste to all in their path.]] They don't know of the Loops, and for that we can be grateful, but from what I can tell, their home universe always falls victim to them. Every. Single. Time. The Grandmapocalypse is a terrible thing to witness. Knowing that I was instrumental in bringing it about... there is no joy in that chaos. No new possibilities. Only death. Only cookies.
320* Loop 102.1: Twilight thinks that due to being lodged with the Cakes instead of in the library, and later getting her own house, means that there'll be no reason for Tirek to destroy her library like [[{{Railroading}} always happens in the baseline]]. So what happens? Well, a rogue blast from Tirek blows up Sugarcube Corner, with some of the larger debris hitting Twilight's home and causing it to collapse on the library. [[RoaringRampageOfRevenge Cue Twilight going Super Saiyan on Tirek.]]
321-->Not long after, Princess Luna caused a small plaque to be raised on the moon. It read:\
322\
323'''Nightmare Moon'''\
324''Sent to the Moon by the magic of the Elements of Harmony''\
325'''Tirek'''\
326''Got here the hard way''
327* Loop 103.7: During a "what's the most useless skillset you ever earned a professional certification for" competition, Celestia mentions she was an official planting-stick sharpness tester. It's such an obsolete farming tool that not even Applejack knows what they are.
328-->'''Applejack:''' Right, but why didn't you lead an agricultural revolution?\
329'''Celestia:''' I was eight, Applejack.\
330'''Applejack:''' Ah've done, oh, fifty or sixty agricultural revolutions when I was under ten. You sure could.\
331'''Celestia:''' No. This was the ''first'' time I was eight.
332* Loop 104.4, and one of Celestia's attempts to find an even worse prison for Tirek:
333-->'''Celestia:''' Well, here we are again, Tirek. Given your escape from Tartarus, we've decided to take stronger measures. Tartarus could not hold you, so it stands to reason that there is nothing on this world that can. As such, we have chosen to imprison you on another world.\
334'''Tirek:''' So this is your answer? I hope they're better at building prisons than our world, else you've only given me the means to take everything I want.\
335'''Celestia:''' That would be impressive, given as you would be in a magicless world, in a magicless form, with no knowledge of how the portal works.\
336(Tirek starts looking nervous)\
337'''Celestia:''' We hereby banish you...\
338(Twilight throws Tirek into the mirror portal)\
339'''Celestia:''' ... to [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyEquestriaGirls high school]].
340** And worse yet...
341--->'''Twilight:''' You'll record everything, right?\
342'''Sunset Shimmer:''' As much as I can. I'll try and send you a highlights reel before the loop ends.
343* Loop 107.2:
344** Fluttershy mentions one of her most annoying minor variant loops was where her name was spelled with an S. Everyone is very sympathetic to the implications, [[BaitAndSwitch until Fluttershy reveals]] that she meant a loop where she was ''Flustershy'', which was just annoying. [[DoubleSubversion She did have a Sluttershy loop, though]].
345--->'''Fluttershy:''' The Sluttershy loop, I went 'Buck this, I am going to Neighico', put an Awake Angel Bunny in charge of my duties to the animals, and then had a nice vacation there. Very low key, but still enjoyable all the same. I wasn't counting that loop because it wasn't Baseline, since I left Ponyville early on in the loop.
346** Rainbow Dash's minor variant was one where Spitfire was her mom, and would never let her into the Wonderbolts due to a combination of anti-nepotism and having already seen all of Dash's tricks. After Dash did an especially impressive trick, she demanded Spitfire do something better.
347--->'''Dash:''' From a STANDING START, she hit mach two, used the air friction to set the sky on fire in her wake, skywrote her name in white fire, complete with dotted Is and crossed T, punched a hole in the sky, wrapped herself in ball lightning, then landed right back where she took off, wearing a corona as a cape. Total time from takeoff to landing? Eight seconds. The worst bit was when Fleetfoot just whistled and said she hadn't seen Spitfire do that since she was my age. I was kind of in a shock induced coma for the rest of the loop.\
348'''Twilight:''' We said the SMALLEST change!\
349'''Dash:''' That WAS a small change! I told you, Spitfire was my mom! She can actually do that in baseline, I checked!
350** Ivory Scroll's variant:
351--> '''Ivory:''' There was a variant in which I secretly was a ninja pirate zombie robot with a troubled past.
352-->'''Dash:''' That don't sound like baseline.
353-->'''Ivory:''' You don't understand. That was the only difference. I almost went mad waiting for something different to happen.
354* Loop 108.3: Bilbo Baggins is waiting for the dwarves to troop in, as usual--when dragons begin to show up at his house, beginning with Spike and ending with Smaug himself.
355* Loop 108.7. For some reason, all the Mane Six's pets loop in as dragons. This includes an Awake Angel Bunny, who takes advantage of his ability to speak to tell everyone [[ClusterFBomb exactly what he thinks of them]]... which ''crashes the Loop''.
356* Loop 109.17: Twilight isn't Awake, so Rarity and Spike decide to fall in "love at first sight." They eventually get so saccharine that even Rarity decides to tone it down a little. But the best part is the guest anchor, who admits that he's been there a few times before: [[Franchise/StarTrek James Tiberius Kirk]], AKA Tibbles, Luna's faithful pet opossum.
357-->'''Rarity''': Okay, somehow I feel like that was obvious.
358* Loop 110.4. As part of a challenge to see who has the wilder imagination, Berry gets high, and sees if Discord is able to keep up with replicating what she's hallucinating. He can't.
359* Loop 110.9. Another drinking game -- who's done the oddest thing with the mirror portal from ''Equestria Girls?''. Highlight include:
360** Cadence getting everyone legally married to their counterparts.
361** Pinkie apparently regularly switches places with her counterpart. [[MindScrew The others don't know if it's the looping pony Pinkie or the non-looping EQG!Pinkie]]
362** Chrysalis once used a few trinkets from various loops and her changelings to convince the human Mane Six that they were Magical Girl heroes. And she posed as both the BigBad and the TeamPet.
363*** Another time, during a Stealth Anchor loop, she used the Mirror Pool to create an endless changeling army, dressed them up as Imperial Stormtroopers, and conquered the human world.
364** Berry Punch put her still halfway through the mirror so that the liquor being brewed would dimensionally warp on itself, and so turned 307 Ale into 460.5 Ale.
365** Trixie dropped the mirror into the Mirror Pool to see what would happen...
366-->'''Trixie:''' Standard Trixie outcome number four. Loop crash, then Eiken.
367* Loop 113.7: When the Nazis open the [[Film/RaidersOfTheLostArk the Ark of the Covenant]], they somehow get Pinkie Pie, who invites them to a ''[[DeadlyEuphemism special party]]''.
368* Loop 113.11: After careful scientific analysis, Twilight Sparkle determines that for that Loop, the universe ''literally'' revolves around Ditzy.
369* Loop 114.6: The Apple Family decided to give Flim and Flam their farm, then getting Fluttershy's help to animate their trees, just to mess with the brothers' heads.
370* Loop 115.4: Cadance deciding to become a ship-sinker, both the trope and the literal kind.
371* Loop 118.1: The CMC ask Twilight to be the referee for one of their "Battleship" games. Twi agrees, but proposes a twist on the usual rules: Each of them will have to build a ship that actually existed... ''and they won't know who's going to command which ship''.
372** And then, it turns out each of them got the ship that they built.
373* Loop 119.1: Gilda becomes emperor of the Griffons, and makes a lavish spectacle on her entrance to Equestria. Halfway through a musical number, she's given a message informing her that the empire has ''conveniently'' collapsed and reformed into a republic.
374* Loop 120.9: While in a ham-tastic rant to versions of the founding ponies, Twilight lists among her titles and accomplishments that she is called "she who very nearly once made a honey-badger care".
375** A later BrickJoke reveals that among Fluttershy's titles is "She Who Made a Honey Badger Care".
376** Also Puddinghead - almost everything he says and does is funny, but the Snark segment takes the cake.
377* Loop 124 is solely composed of the Mane Six [[VideoGame/ElevatorSource being stuck in a teleportation-proof elevator going up seven hundred floors, stopping on each one, with each being something strange and bizarre, including several other loopers showing up.]] And when it turns out that the whole thing was caused by Discord as a prank, they respond by forcing him to go through the same thing, but with every floor being monotonous and boring.
378* Loop 126.3: Explosives Fanatic Trixie attempts to create a major explosive supposedly based off of CL-20 (Hexanitrohexaazaisowurtzitane) known as Dodecanitrododecaazaisowurtizane. She fails in the attempt. It gets funnier in Loop 127.8, however. She created an [[Series/StarTrekVoyager Omega Particle]] out of nitrogen. The funny part is, the Borg help out by '''evacuating the galaxy''' Her punishment: being '''''Naughty Trix-Trix''''' in the Teletubbies universe.
379* Loop 128.9: Equestria is the [[Film/MenInBlackII Locker Land]] for K. The Ponies praise K, while a tiny Pinkie comes out, reminds K of the plot, and K goes party pooper. J gets some revenge for the pre-credits Locker gag by putting the Ponies in K's Locker.
380* Loop 129.8: A ponified [[Manga/Eyeshield21 Seijuro]] [[WalkingTechbane Shin]] recounts to Twilight of an earlier loop when he met [[AIIsACrapshoot [=CelestAI=]]], and mentions while looking for an off-switch, he caused [=CelestAI=] to [[EpicFail overload, overheat and crashed the Loop via Heat Death of Equestria Online just by walking around.]] Pinkie, Ivory Scroll and ''[[TheStoic Big Mac]]'' were laughing themselves silly when Twilight showed up, and the Anchor quickly joined them.
381* Loop 133.7: Nyx starts a new drinking game -- most interesting way that the library's been destroyed. Twilight immediately grounds her, spends the whole game head banging on the table (breaking ''several'' of them), and afterwards compiles a list of Loopers to prank as revenge.
382* Loop 137.13: Everyone Wakes up just as Applebloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo finish getting married in a triad. While the [=CMCs=] are trying to figure out how to annul the marriage, Celestia takes a chart and demonstrates how (thanks to her being Scootaloo's mother this loop) pretty much everyone Awake, including several visiting loopers, are now in-laws.
383* 137.16: Absinthe gives Twilight the brilliant idea to seize life the ComicStrip/CalvinAndHobbes way, with Rarity along for the ride. Rarity does not enjoy the ride.
384** "I'M DONE SPEAKING TO THE ABSINTHE, PLEASE!" Rarity shouted, her mane beginning to match the color of her coat. "I'D LIKE TO SPEAK TO TWILIGHT NOW!"
385* Loop 150.2. Harry Potter hands off the Diary Horcrux to Cheerilee, who proceeds to use it as her school notebook. She forces in excess of two thousand page's worth of notes, calculations, and scratchwork into the Horcrux's pseudo-mind before information starts leaking back out. And that is how Cheerilee learned to speak Parseltongue.
386* Loop 155.21. During [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS5E12AmendingFences Moondancer's party]] this time, Trixie and Chrysalis were headlining as entertainment. As the final act this loop, Trixie pulls off a filk of [[Film/MaryPoppins Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious]] about explosives. The end bit goes:
387-->'''Trixie''': So if Tirek approaches There is no need for despair Just synthesis this chemical And hurry out of there But better do it carefully Or it could change your life.\
388'''Chrysalis''': For example.\
389'''Trixie''': Yes?\
390'''Chrysalis, glaring at Trixie''': One night I gave it to my marefriend And she blew up my Hive.\
391'''Trixie''': Hey! Trixie said she was sorry!\
392Moondancer collapsed into laughter at that point.
393* Loop 161.2: Twilight brings Moondancer to visit Ponyville...and the visit is immediately interrupted by an extremely drunk Sleipnir, who got a bit carried away celebrating his girlfriend's promotion to full Adminship, and hugs Twilight and Moondancer before being dragged off and thrown into a lake by Fenrir. The snip ends with Sleipnir chasing Fenrir through the air at supersonic speed.
394* Loop 162.28: One of the bar questions is "What's the strangest/weirdest/most mind-boggling thing Twilight Velvet has done/you've seen her do throughout the loops?" Twilight is annoyed that they're bringing up her mother, but lets it slide. There are the standard weird family things, a time Velvet adopted the entire dragon migration, the time she was an Andalite, and then...
395-->A voice spoke up. "There was that one time where I was a ninja. I noticed Twilight and Shining were both acting very strange, so being the concerned mother that I was, I decided to follow them to wherever they were headed."\
396The entire bar fell silent. One by one, the patrons let their gazes climb upward.\
397"Hi hon." Hanging from the ceiling and dressed in a skintight suit, Twilight Velvet waved at her daughter. "Time loop, huh?"\
398"...yep."\
399"I guess we both have our secrets." She paused a moment, then pointed at Nyx. "Did that black filly call you ''mom'' earlier?"\
400"I'm not drunk enough to answer that yet."
401* In Loop 174.11, Fenrir, the admin for the ''TabletopGame/Warhammer40000'' Loops, comes to Fluttershy (the Little Mother of his Anchor) with a bit of a concern. His tail's stiff, his ears are a little floppy, he's having a bit of attention-deficit disorder. Fluttershy informs that admin that although it's not as bad as it could be, he's becoming... ''domesticated.'' Fenrir breaks down in tears, but the best part is that this is the end result of most of the Loopers, and him, trying to ''stabilize'' the [=WH40K=] loops.
402* Loop 176.6: Rarity wakes up in Hytopia from Tri-Force Heroes. As the Princess. Who is cursed to wear horrible clothing. Link arrives and finds her attempting to hunt down the Lady of the Drablands to avenge this "Crime against fabulosity".
403* Loop 177.15: Twilight (apparently the only one Awake) forgot to bring friends along to defeat Nightmare Moon, and had to improvise for the Element Bearers. Kindness: The manticore. Loyalty: Steven Magnet. Laughter: One of the (non-sapient) trees with a scary face. Generosity: A Shadowbolt Twilight dragooned into helping push the tree in a wheelbarrow. Magic is of course Twilight. And Honesty is ''Nightmare Moon herself''. Somehow this all works.
404-->'''Spike:''' Seriously? A tree?\
405'''Twilight:''' Yep. I was in kind of a hurry, it's a long story...
406* Loop 188.11: The expansion reaches [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS6E16TwentyEightPranksLater 28 Pranks Later.]] Twilight spends several minutes trying to figure out how Pinkie has managed to convince ''the entire town'' to go along with this insane scheme when Twilight is the only one Awake. Then she just gives up and rolls with it.
407* Loops 189.12 and 189.13: In the first, Pinkie Pie is a ''normal pony'', which causes Twilight to seek the strongest possible brain bleach she can stand. And in 13, a normally baseline loop goes sour when Pinkie Pie is replaced by [[Literature/HarryPotter Dolores Umbridge]]. Twilight immediately crashes the loop by exploding the sun. She gets a G3 loop (which she hates) as punishment, but considers it well WorthIt to escape the previous loop.
408* Loop 201.2: Ivory Scroll offers to swap places with her (younger) version on the other side of the mirror, so that the younger version can get some experience as a mayor instead of an intern. Ivory doesn't bother to mention the pony thing first.
409-->'''Marey:''' WHY THE HECK DIDN'T YOU TELL ME YOU WERE A HORSE?! AND THAT SHE'S A UNICORN?!
410* Loop 201.13: Applejack is mad at Apple Bloom for burning down the entire orchard--apparently in pursuit of a single flyder. Just as she's gearing up for a ''real'' rant, Apple Bloom says that it was the size of the barn. And then the barn explodes.
411-->'''Applejack:''' Oh.\
412'''Apple Bloom:''' Oh good, all I did was piss it off. I don't suppose Big Mac's set up the Orbital Friendship Cannon yet?\
413'''Applejack:''' Since...when was that Big Mac's responsibility?\
414'''Apple Bloom:''' I dunno, but he was fully qualified for it so he went off to arm it while I distracted it.\
415'''Orbital Friendship Cannon:''' HATE DETECTED. FIRING ORBITAL FRIENDSHIP CANNON.
416* Loop 205.2: Chrysalis finally gets her redeemed form. She hates it and goes through all the loopers trying to fix it. None of them can help, until Twilight points something out.
417-->'''Twilight:''' You ''do'' remember you can shapeshift, right?\
418''[beat]''\
419'''Chrysalis:''' Wait, I didn't lose that? I thought... I didn't... ''[facehoof]'' I am a very silly changeling.
420* Loop 205.5: Chrysalis teaches Thorax how to share the love to redeem her species years early in a heartwarming scene... and then takes a page out of Celestia's book.
421-->"Not as bad as the first one," she said, out loud, then shapeshifted herself until she looked a lot more like she had before – still no holes, but with a deep near-black green for her carapace. "Good work, Thorax. Now, two decrees, to take effect simultaneously."\
422Thorax noticed that the changelings he could see in the audience didn't seem black either. And they looked smaller than Queen Chrysalis did.\
423"Firstly, I abdicate. Secondly, you're promoted to King. Enjoy."\
424With that, she vanished in an enormous flash of green light.\
425"Thorax?" Pharynx asked, from behind him. "What happened to us? How come you're… tall?"\
426"I'm what?" Thorax asked, then finally adjusted for scale.\
427"...huh."\
428"Did she say you're king now?" Carapace said. "I guess you are taller than everyling else, and I always thought that's how we picked who was in charge."
