== Tropes present in this work: ==
 
{{tropelist}}
* [[And I Must Scream]]: When somepony loses a challenge to the Game Marester, she turns them into a trophy. However, it's heavily implied that, even as a trophy, they're still awake.
** In Chapter 12, {{spoiler|Pinkie's Confidence reveals the crystal arena where she is being "punished" for its sins actually has the rest of the emotions and personality traits trapped inside, unable to communicate and is the main reason why Pinkie Pie is in her coma.}}
Line 19 ⟶ 18:
* [[Cliff Hanger]]: Naturally. Usually takes place at the end of the first chapter of the occasional two-chapter arc, such as the Game Marester arc. However, possibly the most chilling example would be at the end of chapter 11: {{spoiler|Pinkie Pie seemingly gives up on Mare-Do-Well and appears to write a suicide note on Gummy's grave in blood.}} This is made worse by the very final text; normally each chapter ends with "The Legend of Mare-Do-Well trots along..." or "The Legend of Mare-Do-Well will resume...", but this one presents it as a question: "Will the Legend of Mare-Do-Well still trot along?"
* {{spoiler|[[Contrived Coincidence]]}}: The truth behind all the pranks in Chapter 9.
* [[Continuity Nod]]: In one chapter, Spike mentions preparing a gem to eat on his birthday, referring to the events of [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic (Animation)/Recap/S2 /E10 Secret of My Excess|"Secret of My Excess"]]. Another nod to the same episode happens a couple of chapters later, when Pinkie is shown to be staying at Twilight's house until her bedroom at Sugarcube Corner is repaired from Spike's rampage.
** In the midst of a [[Villainous Breakdown]] in Chapter 12, Dr. Caballus{{spoiler|/the ponification of Pinkie Pie's Guilt}} mentions several events Pinkie Pie should still be guilty over including [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic/Recap/S1 E5/E05 Griffon the Brush Off|Pinkie's pranks]],[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic (Animation)/Recap/S1 E9/E09 Bridle Gossip|thinking Zecora was an evil enchantress]], [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic/Recap/S1 /E14 Suited for Success|not liking her first dress and forcing Rarity to make another]], and even [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic (Animation)/Recap/S2 E6/E06 The Cutie Pox|stealing/eating cornbread]]. Mentioning her breakdown and paranoia over the events of [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic/Recap/S1 /E25 Party of One|"Party of One"]] was the last straw.
* [[Could Have Avoided This Plot]]: If only Rainbow Dash read the letter that Pinkie sent her, {{spoiler|Dash would have realized Pinkie was preparing a cake and party for the anniversary of the day she first arrived in Ponyville from Cloudsdale instead of following the prank list that Dash feared}}.
* [[Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass]]: {{spoiler|Mr. P.}}
Line 32 ⟶ 31:
* [[Hoist by His Own Petard|Hoist by Her Own Petard]]: Game Marester and her [[Loophole Abuse|loophole abuses]].
* [["I Know You're in There Somewhere" Fight]]: A variation; {{spoiler|the five remaining mane cast members enter Pinkie's mind and find her Confidence, which has become depressed due to Guilt taking over. They are forced to use this to get her back to normal.}}
* [[Imagine Spot]]: Twilight Sparkle gets one when she imagines what sort of roommate Pinkie Pie would be while considering having her move in with one of the Mane Cast because of her fears of her [[Secret Identity]] being discovered. [[Oh Crap|She quickly reconsiders it.]]
** Rainbow Dash gets continuous ones in Chapter 9 believing all the events that befall the characters who were on the list were all due to Evil!Pinkie Pie's meddling.
* [[It's Personal]]: Pinkie vows to make absolute sure she captures Dr. Caballus after {{spoiler|he kills Gummy}}.
