Spike: …Did I miss something?

SFX: (CRASH!)

DM: …Rarity’s “diamond” takes out the doorframe – and part of the wall – when you try to force it into the building.

Spike: Twi, what’s going on? What happened in Canterlot? …When did Ponyville get even WORSE?!

Twilight Sparkle: Just noticed that, did you?
