![[A unicorn foal lays against a patch of hay. Its horn is producing a shine. The text reads: "There was something different about me, from the moment I was born. Some thought it was a miracle; others believed nature was playing a mean old trick."] [A unicorn foal is being comforted by an adult horse. The text reads: "A few attempted to solace me, saying it was just a part of life, merely a violet in a field of daffodils. But I had never felt like one of the family."] [A pair of regular foals are being rowdy and pushing against the unicorn foal, which tries to fret away in dismay, displaying clear discomfort. The text reads: "No matter how much I tried to be brave like the others; I was fragile at my core. I didn't understand the ways of the herd; I couldn't connect with the other foals. It was hard to tell what the humans wanted from me. I had to run a strange direction to jump the hurdles. The barn's hay felt spiky and sharp on my coat. I couldn't eat the feed. I was too fidgety on the race track. I always pulled away when they tried to trim my hooves. I couldn't be out in the meadow for too long when there was sunlight. My horn got caught on ropes all the time."] [The unicorn foal is settled under the shade of a towering oak tree against a backdrop where a pair of horses are racing with humans. The text reads: "Is this a gift, or a curse? Life's gracious work of art or its experiment of patience and might? No one could decide, I certainly couldn't. When the afternoon keeps passing, the fresh breeze on the field and the dappled sunlight teasing, I try to gallop with the narrative. Maybe this is a good thing. However, most days, I cannot help but wonder what it feels like to run free without worrying about your inevitable tumble. Perhaps it is a mean old trick."]](https://64.media.tumblr.com/880ff0f80e7e38d2ee93d74f4c3aef66/994399e55eb004f4-69/s500x750/beff1cf02df9935af86f7ff27157cb4a8e746d6e.png)
equines & being neurodivergent
Yo so I fuck w/ this movie,,,, but the BOOB TREE???? What was THAT! And like the boob bird dog thing and the old magic tree stump witch’s relationship was randomly intense for a kids movie. But the bull king chasing a wave of unicorns was a twist I’ve never forgotten so I will still give The Last Unicorn (1982) a raving review despite the weirdly sexual trauma it no doubt instilled within me
the last unicorn lived in a lilac wood, and she lived all alone

My Little Pony: Magic Resistance/Anti-Magic
So I’ve wondered how magic could be combated/defended against in the world of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. There are guards, police and other forms of law enforcement, so they’re definitely needed to help keep the peace. So how do they apprehend unicorns or other magic wielding species that were criminals or threats of some sort? So I tried to recall and look up if there were any examples in the series. And I succeeded in finding a few examples.
The first example I recalled was from season 6, To Where and Back Again. Chrysalis’ throne that disabled all magic except changeling magic. Although this would hinder any soldiers or law enforcement that were non changeling magic wielders. It seems to be unlikely and rarely be used by non changeling.
The next example of magic suppression I could think of was the gate used in the Equestria Games to disable magic to prevent cheating. If there was or is a more portable or otherwise smaller scale version, I imagine it could be more easily used to disable magic wielders.
The next example I could think of were from season 3, where the Crystal Empire returns. Sombra uses his crystal magic to disable Shining Armor’s ability to use magic, and he uses his magic crystals to trap Twilight Sparkle when she was trying to get the Crystal Heart. The crystal cage she was trapped in prevented her from teleporting out.
The next example I could think of was from the My Little Pony Movie. The Storm King’s soldiers used shields, and possibly armor, that could resist and even to an extent, deflect magic. And when Twilight Sparkle was captured, she was put in a cage that prevented her magic from allowing her to escape. I forgot to draw the cage unfortunately. And we also see in the movie, captured ponies with muzzles. And at least one of the captured ponies, in addition to being muzzled, had a device on their horn that likely prevented them from using magic. However this device would probably only work on a strait horn that would fit in it, so it likely wouldn’t work on larger or smaller horns. And especially not curved or branched horns.
So I thought up and drew a cuffing device like a ring or bracelet that could be adjusted to account for horn size and would be unlikely to be hindered by the horn or antler shape. I imagine that the cuffs would be made out of a material the same or similar to what the Storm King’s army’s equipment and likely incorporated something similar to the magic disabling gates used in the Equestria Games. I drew up examples of how the cuffs would be used on different magic wielding species, straight horned unicorns, curved horned unicorns, goats/sheep, kirin, deer, and abada.
Rewatching I believe in unicorns cuz idk if I should break up with him or not (I kinda feel like Davina rn)
Best combo:
Sitting outside + painting my nails + listening to lana + scrolling on Pinterest + drinking iced coffee
You can't tell me there's a better feeling in the world
