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.

"And I won't forget it. Er...hopefully not," Applejack answered. She settled back with a sheepish smile, then settled her hoof on her discarded hat.

She held it in front of her for a moment, lost in thought. Guilt surged up once more, apparent in the way her mouth wavered. "...is everypony okay?"

"Hey, calm down AJ; everypony's okay. We got them safely inside when things started to go haywire. You never even got close to Sweet Apple Acres to do any serious damage!"

The winged 'minions' however, had done a number on most of the apple trees but they could still be salvaged with a bit of work.

"As long as nopony's hurt...you're not, are you?" Applejack fusses, holding Rainbow still to look her over.

"...I'm fine. Hehe, it'd take a lot more than flying rocks and scenery to bring this Pegasus down!" Rainbow's wings might've been a little ruffled from the near-impacts, and her legs were a little stiff but other than that she felt okay. And she was pretty red from Applejack being that close and looking her over like she'd caused broken wing damages.

"Okay, good. I should...probably go apologize to everypony else while I'm at it," she murmurs, tentatively replacing the hat on her head. She smiles shakily.

"Swing by the barn tonight---there might just be some cider ready for you. If I can save any of this," she sighed, cringing at the sight over her shoulder.

"Heh, yeah. Don't worry about it so much...they know it wasn't really you!" Rainbow insisted confidently while playfully tipping Applejack's hat so it fell over her eyes a bit, laughing as she took to the skies of a Nightmare-freed Ponyville.

"You betcha! If anypony can make things right by being honest and true, I'd bet my bits on you!" she nodded once at the Earth pony, a broad smile as she couldn't wait to taste some of that awesome cider.
