The plot is simple enough: Two eccentric-yet-sane human twins, Sylus James Harkens and Clara Belle Harkens, born in the Bells of Clarity Asylum, along with an insane girl named Pinkamena Diane Pie, try to escape when they are children. Only Clara does, and the other two are punished separately. Pinkamena was brutalised with the normal treatment, but for Sylus... Overseer Dash had something else planned for him. Something far worse than mere physical wounds. Far, far worse.

"Asylum, along with an insane girl named Pinkamena Diane Pie" miss you had my curiosity but now you have my attention.
5023383 I had the idea for the story and description, but the "real Sylus" that the description mentions is the one who wrote the first chapter.
This is my first collab-fic and I'm going to be writing the second chapter tomorrow, as it's 10:40 PM and I need to go to school in the morning. 
To the tune of Stairway to Heaven
I don't want to be dead,
So I need to sleep in bed,
And I've got to be there by eleven.
5023405 I know the feeling. Damn school sometimes getting in the way of our writing
also nice example choice
Here's a sneak peek into my first (and the story's second) chapter, in Clara's viewpoint:
I'm only able to write at school before and between classes, so if you have anything to say, would you kindly make it quick?
I'm at school again, so... same procedure.
Class starts in 32 mins. 
Questions... GO!!!! 
5039489 It'll be 8am in my timezone.
I finished writing the next chapter! I'm still waiting for replies from Sylus and Derpamena, but once I get them, I'll publish it. It's called The Great Escape. (Even though they don't really escape until later, and only Clara does.)
5023446 It's done! I'm currently awaiting my co-author's and editor's approval. As soon as I get it, I'll publish the chapter!
5045477 great can't wait to see.
5045541 Finally! It's done! It's finally done! hahahahahaha!
What was that about time travel? I dunno, i like the story, but perhaps it needs a tad bit of realism added to it.
5047297 It's a reference to Doctor Who. There's going to be a chapter where they meet the Doctor and his companion Aurora (not canon to DW or MLP).
5047297 Time travel is impossible. There's nothing unreal about that.
Suspense
