“Dammit, Roselyn, you’ve done enough. If you keep putting it off, you could end up in a desperate place one day!” Caprice nuzzled Roselyn’s leg. “You always act as if you are trying to make up for something. If you’d just take the serum, you’d find that Celestia forgives humans. She knows humans can’t help what they are.” Caprice looked deeply into Roselyn’s eyes, and Roselyn felt that somehow Caprice was speaking from personal experience. “Just do it, Ros. Run and grab a cup and then get on the boat. It’s alright. You have my permission.”
Context: Taking ponification serum increases the expected value of one’s lifespan by 300 years, though Roselyn is averse to taking the serum, because she feels that existing in human form serves as penitence for wrongs she has committed in the past. There is a tenuous connection between Roselyn’s act of procrastinating on taking the ponification serum, and the practice of cryocrastinating in real life.
Edit: I’m sorry that nopony liked the above quote; my intent in posting it was to cheer for the sentiment that living for a long time is a good thing. I, um, guess that I did a bad job, sorry. I will leave the test of my original post unedited, so that everypony can see what I originally wrote.
