THE NIGHTMARE MEME

Congratulations! Whether through trickery, temptation, or plain old possession, your character has been corrupted by an ancient darkness, previously known only to the Princess of the Night. The Nightmare has just begun.

♦ Your character is now a Nightmare! How did they get to this point, and what do they plan to do with their newfound power? Doubtless, power is on their minds...and maybe eternal night wouldn't hurt either? Just a little bit?

♦ Oh no! Your character's friend is now a Nightmare version of themselves! Will you fight back or try to talk them down? You should probably avoid doing what Celestia did - unless you've got a thousand years to spare.

♦ You know what? Friendship IS magic! Being evil would be a lot more fun if your friends were with you - maybe you should try to lure them over to the dark side as well. Hint: try baking some cookies!

♦ Don't forget the aftercare! If you do manage to snap your friend out of Nightmarehood, you had best be on hoof for a whole lot of comforting afterwards. These things are never easy. Ask Luna, if thou hast doubts.

♦ Villain song. Do it.

[The biggest problem with that plan were a duo of ponies calling themselves Reapers. Together, they were driving away the nightmares of Tartarus and putting them back where they belong. Because that's what Reapers do. Help others, make them stronger, and above all else, keep Noise from erasing others. This was close enough to the third, the nightmares from Tartarus.

SO what does a powerful pony with a connection to the void do when others are doing her job for her?]

[It wasn't as if this was unexpected. Considering all the other weirdos, and all the other heroes, who had been brought to this Equestria, conflict was inevitable.

Still when it happened, especially on this level...the fact that they were able to fight her like this didn't keep it from pissing Jappleack the hell off. They were able to fight what she could throw this easily on Equestria? Fine.

She'd bring them to a more favorable battleground for herself, instead.

Heads up, Shys. A portal will be opening up to engulf you now. And if it's quick enough to go undetected by them?

They'll find themselves spit out into the featureless blackness of the Void.]

[One moment, they were helping ponies, the next, they were in a void. Fluttercruel whips their head around, looking for something. "Kreutzer? Kreutzer! ...Buck."
