Original Description:
 
I decided to do two pictures in response to this latest prompt: Draw a pony with a secret / Draw a pony cracking under pressure.
 
No sooner did I see the second part than I thought of poor Twilight. All throughout the show, she’s been wracked with the pressure of possible failure and letting down those she cares about, something I can relate to all too well. It got to the point where her friends made the term ‘Twilighting’ for the process she goes through when she panics. Some might not find it very flattering or considerate to her feelings, though even Twilight admitted that she knows how she can get when pressure sets in.
 
Heck, Pony Life literally has Twilight break into pieces when she lets her stress get to her, though that’s more for comedic effect. I took both interpretations into account for this picture.
