Well, this song came a lot easier than the last one. Probably because I've built up a bit of a cache for meter so I can just grab words I need to get in sync with it rather than hunting for them. That's the magic of experience, I suppose.

It also helps that I didn't have to weave a single, giant, cohesive narrative with this one. And that Sweetie Belle is new to this and singing/composing without the slightest bit of preparation. I've tried not to edit it too much along the way because of that. I hope I got a bit of that rough, unpolished feel.

I'd like to say that I intentionally organized for the exact right set of little sisters to be present, but that would imply a level of foresight that I simply didn't have for this song. It's a coincidence that I didn't have to go back and retcon some other ponies to show up, but, you know, first try, easy every time.

Anyway, attached is the heroic reprise to Luna's villain song. Now that I write that, I don't think I've ever heard one of those. It's usually the other way around. Interesting...
