This took a lot more time to finish than I expected.. I started this last Friday, but due to all errands and stuff that needed to be done, I had very little time to work with this until today.

I don't have much to say about this one. I had two options which I could work with. The one made and the scene where Twilight's horn is sparkling. Ended up drawing this, due to Trixie not appearing later in the series (excluding that of Ponyville Confidential). Trixie is one of the better looking side characters in the series in my opinion. Hopefully she will make a reappearance in the 3rd season.

Original, color only and line art will be where they have been before. Hint: in scraps.

What must be remembered is that the lie and challenges happened after Dash's heckling. Heckling that happened, what, a minute after she began her stage show? None of the others in the crowd save for Dash, Rarity and Applejack minded Trixie's 'boasting', which for all the hype was simply her trying to get an audience for her show. None of them had to stay if they didn't like it. It was an open-air venue.

As for the Ursa, Snips and Snails got it on Spike's suggestion. And despite her being in a town she had no attachment to, she still fought the beast, knowing she had no chance but still TRYING-which is more, I might add, than what her hecklers did. And they still mocked her for it. "All hat, no cattle," to quote Applejack, who might I say again, did nothing against the beast.

But Trixie did. She tried. And she lost her wagon and everything inside it. Simply because three jackasses couldn't simply turn and walk away.

Hmm.. I guess that Trixie is more powerful than I thought: How else would she have fans that defense her like that?

Well, she's not perfect, but the vast majority of stuff that happens in the episode really isn't her fault. And she does honestly try to fight the Ursa. And what happened to her was massively disproportionate to whatever she did before.

Also, nice drawing. :)

Maybe its just me, but I always felt bad for her. I mean, since she wants to be a magician, she has to boast. I think the Mane 6 just went to far. I understand that she asked for volunteers, but why wouldn't they expect her to not do something seemingly mean when she's on stage or expect her NOT to lie? It seems rather rude what they did. Plus, the Ursa Minor destroyed her home. I wouldn't be very happy with the Mane 6 if they destroyed your life too. Anyway, I love this picture

They didn't do anything serious to her though. Minus: it was Snail's and that other pony's fault that the ursa destroyed her carriage. When you think about it, Mane 6 had nothing to do with her downfall. It was her own lie that caused it.

Still, she is one of the more interesting side characters, and as I already stated, I would really like to see her in the next season.

She has to lie, she's a magician remember? If she didn't say she never slayed the usra major, then she wouldn't be as well liked. Its the Mane 6's issue with the fact she was doing her own job. (And everyone STILL blamed her over the destruction of ponyville, when she didn't tell them to bring it over.

I really hope she is in next season

So you are basically saying that entertainers aren't responsible for their lies? :O_o: I understand what you mean, but that's still a contradiction.

Well, they are, but its her job. Apple Jack's job is selling her apples, right? Its a business. Without the lies, what would she be? "The not great and not powerful Trixie?" That's not very eye catching. I doubt she truly would want to be that absorbed, she just has to one your one of MANY unicorns.

I actually like that not-so-powerful phrase :D "Wow, catchy"
