Following her performance, Trixie sat in her dressing room, taking a drink of water and settling her mind down from the night's event. But wasn't to be alone for very long.
"They loved it, Trixie!" Starlight Gimmer declared as she walked into Trixie's room while removing her assistant's attire. "Glad you allowed me to help you with your show tonight, I wasn't sure we'd make it work with our schedules. Anyway, I wanted to tell you that Twilight and the others are going to stop by in a bit. They seemed very interested in your performance tonight."
"That's nice Starlight, now that Celestia and Luna are retired, it's nice that they're taking a keen interest in my magic shows. I guess Twilight and Candance put in a good word for me" said Trixie is feeling a little tired.
"Um, Trixie, if you don't mind me asking when was the last time you had a good night's sleep?" Starlight asked hesitancy.
"Of course I have gotten a nice sleep. How else would be able to perform my magic shows and my counseling duties." Trixie exclaimed while still yawning.
"Uh-huh," Starlight replied in an uncovering tone. "As your friend =, I can't help but wonder if you are…more tired than normal. I'm only saying that maybe you should cut down the shows for a while?" Starlight suggested causing Trixie to snarl quietly.
"I can't afford to cancel my remaining shows, I still have shown in Las Pegasus and Baltimare, I can't disappoint my fans." At the moment Trixie picked up a picture of herself and a male unicorn in her likeness. "Besides, I still need to make plans to visit my in Las Pegasus," she sighed. "It has been…a while since we last saw each other." As she started to fall asleep while Twilight, Candance, Celestia, Luna enter the room.
"Um, is this a bad time?" Twilight asked.

Following from last night The next day Trixie went on her counseling duties listening and trying to help students with whatever problems they had but the exhausting work of being a traveling magician was getting to her causing her to struggle to stay awake.
"Um, Counselor Trixie?" Gallus spoke, waving his claw in front of her. "Hello? I still need to talk to you!" then he let a big roar, causing the office to shake thus waking her up.
"Oh uh, sorry um… Icarus?"
"It Gallus," the blue feathered corrected. "Icarus is…not blue. In fact, he's having a hard time fitting in and I wondering can you help him."
"Of course he is more than welcome to visit…." Trixie had fallen asleep again.
Not wanting to waste his energy, Gallus went back to class in disgust.
Later at the school library
"Well what did say, Gallus?" the black-feathered griffon asked. "Will she help me out?"
"She helps you, Icarus," Gallus replied. "But I think Counselor Trixie needs to help herself."

A few Days Later, Starlight Glimmer contacted Jack Pot in hopes that Trixie would take a backseat in magic career, but it didn't go well as Trixie stormed in disgust. A little while later Celestia walked over to Trixie's wagon and knocked on the door.
"GO AWAY!" Trixie shouted as Celestia to back away. "TRIXIE DOESN'T WANT TO SEE ANY PONY WHO THINKS SHE SHOULD RETIRE!"
"It's me, Celestia, I know what you're going through right now."
"Sure you do, Celestia," Trixie said in a sarcastic voice. "Go away."
"Trixie," She pleaded. "You overacting…we don't you retire...If could just let me in, we can talk about this."
…
…
After a heartfelt conversation, Trixie returned to her counseling duties with a more well-rested and alert mind. Then in came Icarus.
"Counselor Trixie ?" Icarus asked. "Can I talk to you for a minute?"
"Of course, come in and sit down, sorry if I haven't been myself for a couple of days, but now I'm refreshed, refocused, and ready to help. What can I do for you?"
"Um, well I've been acquainted with several students who were like me."
"Really? That's wonderful. What are their names?" Trixie asked with a smile.
"Scarlet Blossom and Cherry Gem, I've come to realize that maybe it was destiny is choosing us to become friends."
"Well, I'll say this, as your counselor, I think you should find more friends who are just like you, Scarlet and Cherry. After all, it's better to open your mind and listen to what they have to say…It took a few special ponies to help Trixie see that."
Feeling that her friend had open her eyes Starlight said goodbye to Trixie's dad and continue her day as Headmare of the School of Friendship.
