  1. Hot Take: Vyr Cossont¹ is basically Trixie Lulamoon² with extra arms and a Culture budget.

    Both are genuinely talented performers who work obsessively at their craft, but both also confuse “I am extremely good at this niche thing” with “I am objectively Great and Powerful.”

    Then they run headfirst into entities so far beyond them that the contest is meaningful only as an event that might spark contemplation and personal growth: Twilight Sparkle in one case, a Culture Mind in the other. (But don’t hold your breath; Twilight Sparkle still lives with imposter syndrome.)

    The tragedy is not that they lack talent. The tragedy is that their egos interpret talent as proof of cosmic importance.

    Also, in Fallout: Equestria³, Trixie may have been denied her redemption arc but she wound up with more limbs even without the benefits of living in a post-scarcity near-utopia. What do you mean it’s not a contest? The Great and Powerful Goddess’ patience can only go so far!

    ¹ Character from Iain M. Banks’ The Hydrogen Sonata.

    ² Character from My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, first appearing in the Season 1 episode “Boast Busters.”

    ³ Fan fiction by Kkat, longer than War and Peace and twice the fun. Later expanded by Somber’s Fallout: Equestria: Project Horizons, which explores many of the same themes from another angle — and is longer.
