>>25779440
Damn if she isn't killing it with this spotlight too.

>>25779442
Good to have you back, buddy. Hope when you get caught up, you get some more ideas for AJ art.

Or more Chitty art, you do the best her.

>>25779581
Thanks! And don't worry, once I do, I'll start popping stuff out left and right!

>>25779605
...Dare I dream for the legendary AJ vs Chitania art?

It is but a myth, as the legends have told!

>>25779639
I... have one of those actually. Don't know where it is, but I did draw one ha ha! I could look for it, but I haven't sorted through my pile in ages.

You know, with all he set up and all he examined, I don't know if that will be a problem. He really did pick at her brain with this one.

>>25779711
While it is indeed a little sad, I don't blame him. The setup did a wonderful job examining her mental state, her past, how she feels now and why she feels that way, but it was pretty sad.

The only reason why the kick worked is because of it, but it was heartbreaking to get through.

Still, no doubt this shit is hype.

>>25779844
Like he said, the arc took a big turn early on, and it's been just twists and so much looking into AJ's brain and so many surprising things it's pretty much been the best her character has seen since thread 55 when she rode on a dinosaur to punch a nuke. Nothing that grandiose, I mean, I'm not saying she does any super badass feats, I just mean her character is really getting fleshed out.

There is... one little hiccup though.

HE ONLY DOES IT ONCE A DAY AND THEY ARE SHORT, EASY TO READ SNIPPITS
SO MANY CLIFFHANGERS

I NEED

ALL OF HIS AJ STORIES

CRAMMED INTO ONE PASTEBIN

SO I CAN READ IT AND MASTURBATE AND CRY AT THE SAME TIME

IT HAS TO BE DONE

>>25779884
>Once a day
>Short, easy to read snippets.

I like this guy's style already.

>Spike
‘Twilight’

>H-Hey Twilight…

‘Spike! How are you? All better?’

>y-yeah

The dragon looked around cautiously, certain another canvas covered death trap lay in store.

>…no flying machine today? You…you just want to hang out?

He asked, his voice laden with hope.

‘PFT! Don’t be silly! We’re here for Science! Swallow this.’

She handed him a small grey sphere.

>What is it?

‘An antigravity device! See you swallow it, then you can manipulate it directly with your will. It should, in theory, modify the effects of gravity on your whole body, allowing you to utilize a kind of flight based on what direction gravity pulls on you from most strongly!’

>Huh. Ok then.

Taking the pill he swallowed it.

A beat passed. Then two.

>I don’t feel any different.

‘Try to focus. Clear your mind and start with something simple. Like…floating a few meters off the ground.’

>Ok…

The dragon closed his mind, and focused.

<HRK!>

Suddenly he shot into the air being dragged chest first into the sky.

‘Spike! No! You need to relax! Try and control it!’

>I <hrk> Don’t think I <hrk> ca-<BLARGHHHH!>

‘Oh gross!’

><BLLARGGHHHHH!>

‘Spike come back!’

><BLARGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!>

It was to no avail as the dragon was dragged off toward the horizon, vomiting all the way.

***
Back in the lab, spike sat, wrapped in a towel, eye twitching.

‘So….that could have gone better..’

>I was halfway to yakyakistan before it finally came up.

‘Like I said, needs improvement.’

>When it came up I was also a few thousand feet in the air.

‘We got really close this time’

>I hit the ground face first. I can’t smell anything.

‘…Same time next week?’

>Sigh….yes.

>>25779884
I feel like some anon got a hold of a monkeys paw.

>Alright, Mister Paw, here's what I want. I want AJ to get some development. Real development! Like Chrysalis gets!
*Finger closes*
>And I want to see some cool magic too! Gimme some magic that's special to her!
*Finger closes*
>And... maybe not be a giant 20-30 post thing? Those take forever to come out. Yeah, just give me nice short ones.
*Finger closes*
>One wish left... man, I wish I knew what I wanted.
*Paw is closed*
>OH! RIGHT! And they come out really frequently-OH GODDAMN IT!

God I love how silly this got.

I really do.

hey guys, can some one give advice for a good story?
a finished one would be great

>>25780184
Here?

Sorry, this is a continuous story, not a prompt thread. There isn't any one all-done story because it's all just continuation of the same universe with a wide variety of characters, arcs and situations. There's no one story all done that we can point to, save Pommel's Adventure(Was that ever pastebinned separately?) because the series is still going on.

If you're looking for a bunch of one shots funnies, the first pastebin link or the pictures here http://princess-aj.wikia.com/wiki/Princess_Applejack_Wiki#How_it_all_started sum up the best at the start, and if you want then you can try to see some more in the pastebin.

But, like I said, there isn't one story to give you, this isn't a prompt thread. There's a ton that are technically 'done', but they keep going after that story finishes. Think DC or Marvel comics.

I still got the pastebin keys laying around here, in case someone can pick up the slack...

>>25780240
thanks anon, gonna start reading from the begining then

>>25780275
Don't you guys just love it when we catch the attention of a New Anon? I love it!

>>25779984
Well, good thing that thing didn't literally turn off gravity, or he would be going 1000 miles an hour.

True story.

>>25780373
yeah....reality is not guaranteed with this series of shorts.

>>25779711
Perhaps I can be of help!

>Jetset on his way back to Canterlot meets up with a most unexpected guest. None other than 56, booty lover himself!

>Lavan continues his quest to make everyone crazy!
>After they throw a paper airplane into her eye, Chitty and the others have had enough of 41's and SP's shit, and tie them up.

>Lucky brings up to Chitania that she should be getting paid for her comic.
>Also, Chitty never wondered if she can shrink down.
>Chrysalis is determined not to make things any worse.

>BUT FOR THE MAIN EVENT!
>Applejack speaks with the tree, pleads and begs it to give her a means to fix everything in her desperation. She asks, and asks, and asks, but it doesn't answer.
>Because it's a tree.
>Eventually it gets too much, and Applejack bucks it.
>That's right, she bucks the Tree of Harmony. She bucks it.
>And it drops an apple. A red, slightly off color, glowing apple.
>Before she can even process how crazy that is, someone speaks to her!
>"Where... are my... changelings.."
>It seems Chrysalis has found her.
>Despite her pleas and attempts to explain, Chrysalis nearly hits her, until Applejack says one particular thing
>"It's not that bad!" and with that, Chrysalis stops.
>She just stops, seemingly no longer caring. When asked why she's not angry, the Queen says she is still really angry, but it's not that bad so she shouldn't make a deal out of it.
>After some testing, Applejack puts together that the apples magic is to make anyone who hears her words believe them to be the absolute truth, even though the apple doesn't change reality itself. Anything she says, Chrysalis will just outright believe and never question.
>She discovers this by telling her that she's not the greatest Queen. Bit harsh.
>Instantly, Applejack's mind is going, and she says to herself that at last she can fix Equestria! She reasons that with this, she can make all of Ponyville, nay, all the world know the truth that the changelings just want peace, and they'll believe it. She even reasons she can make them believe pretty much anything, including telling the changelings that all they want is peace.

>>25780525
>But the Apple can only make you believe it, not change who you are, so Chrysalis snaps back into thinking of all the things she needs to do to become the greatest Queen, which Applejack shoots down every one with her truth apple. Despite this, she never stops.
>When Chrysalis finally asks her what she does need to do in order to be the best Queen, Applejack has to think about that, realizing all the good she can make Chrysalis do if she just focuses her. She ponders, and thinks, wondering just exactly how to make the Queen do what she wants.
>But when Chrysalis pushes her too far, she realizes that the thing she needs to do is make Chrysalis change, and the only way to do that is to stop her from having someone to run back to.
>She needs to get rid of her enabler.
>So, she tells Chrysalis if she wants to be the best Queen, she has to move out of the Crystal Empire.
>"Fuck you"
>It seems that the Apple stopped working, or something to that measure, as Chrysalis brushes off this 'truth'. Applejack stops paying attention to her, now focusing on how to make the Apple work again, and what it's limits might be.
>Chrysalis tries talking to her, but she won't answer. When she gets annoyed with this and reaches for the apple, Applejack snaps, desperate to keep anyone from taking her apple again.
>And by that, I mean she punches Chrysalis with everything she has.
>"That was very stupid."
>Things have gotten really crazy.

As always, if I missed anything, tell me!

Though I admit, the recap can't do all dat dialog justice.

>>25779801
>I DON'T KNOW WHEN THIS ENDS OR HOW THIS ENDS

Oh god it's going to end eventually.

>>25780671
Eventually... Maybe... There is a chance... But we're not sure. Could just go on though, that's a possibility

I've got 5 bits on AJ ending the fight via 'truth' apple with little to no damage taken.

>SA
"AJ"

"Ugh."

>Oh, now what?

"Oh, nothin', don't wanna talk about it."

>Applejack, if you can't talk about it with me, right now, there is literally nobody in the world you can talk about it with. What's up?

"...Spike's talkin' bout tryin' ta' get big again."

>Oh come on.

"Ah' know. But he thinks it'll help if Chitty goes nuts."

>Wow, I hope not. If he does, he's going to start training, and then she'll take it as a challenge, and before you know it everybody will be kung fu fighting.

"Last time he did his kicks were fast as lightning."

>Yeah, that was a little bit frightening.

"S'pecially cause of all that expert timing."

>Maybe we should get some funky Chineigh mares?

"From funky Chineigh town?"

>They're good at chopping mares up and chopping mares down.

"Well, it is an ancient Chineighs art."

>They all know their parts.

"Rarity might be fainting, she might slip."

>At least he'll get some strong hips?

"..."

>Well, that threw off the rhythm. What's up?

"Think that'll work on me? Make mah' hips stronger?"

>You... you want stronger hips?

"...'

>They're strong enough.

"...Ah'm lookin' in to it."

>Fine, fine.

"..."

"...So when are ya' gettin' yer' half of yer' bed fixed?"

>Celestia promised the replacement will be there by tomorrow, and that she's very sorry for blowing it up.

"Ah."

>...Thanks for letting me crash here again.

"Yep."

"...Ah' like havin' sleepovers."

>What?

"Nothin'... nothing..."

>>25780876
We got five on a flawless victory for the Appul, do I hear fifteen on bugbutt getting her cheeselegs on the forbidden fruit?

>>25780979
I got twenty that Chrysalis gets the apple and AJ realizes its too powerful to exist.

>>25781001
Twenty on Remove Troof, do I hear anything on Chrysalis being less of a dickhead? Long odds but huge payout, this could be the one folks!

>>25781060
Fifty on Chrysalis giving up and stopping sometime during the fight!

>>25781060
I'm your huckleberry. 50 bits!

>>25781100
I'm going all in with my '100 Internets' on them actually having a peaceful resolution over this.

>>25781075
Fifty on the sudden stoppage and

>>25781100
FIFTY ON THE DARK HORSE! Good luck, anon, the odds are 1000:1!

>>25781157
Oooh... putting some serious dough in now!

Oh that note, what's the exchange rate of Internets to bits?

>>25781172
Gambling! Stop using the computer to fleece anons.

Have no idea whats going on, but 1000 Bits on them accidentally kissing!

If I win, I'll draw it!

>>25781295
>He's learned internet gambling

GAME OVER MAN GAME OVER

>>25780976
...that's weirdly cute.

>>25780525
>One post of recap is other stuff
>Two posts is just AJ's story
Why is this so good to see?

>>25781295
You can't tell me what to do!

>>25781329
And we got a huge sum on them accidentally'ing a lesbianism!

"Sooooo-"

"Fair enough?"

"Aren't you going to shoot back asking where I sleep?"

"Because you have clearly been stalking me?"

"...I need to fix that."

>Trust me, stalking you is by far the last thing on my mind.

"I killed a god you know."

"Not that I'm complaining, but why?"

"...Shit."

>>25781987
he can't prove it right now, but he ca-
oh wait, that would prove Red's NOT dead, just inside primrose's body
fuck, Pommel can't really say he's killed a god and back it up without finding the Widow's Regret and her crew can he?

>>25782032
Or Chitty could just take a look in his head.

But she won't, because fuck him.

Bitch.

>>25782055
>Or Chitty could just take a look in his head.

No she can't, she sucks at that. She really, really sucks at that.

Her just trying to erase five minutes erases a whole month+ of their life bad.

>>25782068
Then have fucking 13 do it.

I don't care that it's going to get him beat to a pulp, he fucking did it.

>>25782094
>Well, 13? Did he do it?

'Oh come on!'

>HAH!

'He was dead for a little while!'

"That's not what being dead is."

'Fine! Incapacitated!'

>Ooooo~ You incapacitated something that can be held by those robots I crushed without even looking while so badly wounded I couldn't go titan, ssscaaaarrrryyyy. You're a goddamn wonder, that's what you are.

'It's bigger than that!'

>If I punch that robot, will it get out?

'YES!'

>Then it's not bigger than that, it's a regular robot that is holding in this 'god'.

'...It's bigger than you're making it sound!'

Awww, come on man, it's just some humor. Not meant to be taken seriously.

>>25782288
Nobody is dumb enough to fall for that bait.

>>25782325
Guess what? 'Chitania's the best ever and you are lower than dirt' stopped being funny dozens of threads ago.

>>25782380
Serves him right for being uppity. Like that douchebag who wrote Chitania getting beat by Faust. Everyone knows Chitty's gonna win that fight. She deserves it as simply the best character in the thread.

>>25782597
Already blew your load with the 'fimfiction' part, man. Not gonna work. Wait another few threads and try again, but try to mix it up.

In case anybody is coming back after a Hiatus, all you need to know is that he really, really hopes he can drive writefags away. That's it.

>>25782187
>'It's bigger than that!'

Oh myyyyyyy~

>>25781987
Chitty is secretly depressed changelings can't change gender.

It means she can never have a dick to swing around physically as well as verbally.

>>25782325
You say that, but I'd bet you money some asshole like >>25782288 would use it as an excuse for the guard to decide Pommel isn't good enough to be captain and throw him out. His story was one of the few times non-teched up non-Princess ponies managed to actually do something aside from stuff like Dash's bit in the train fight.

Taking that away just for the sake of 'Chitania is superior AGAIN' is kind of obnoxious.

>>25783452
>You say that, but I'd bet you money some asshole like >>25782288 would use it as an excuse for the guard to decide Pommel isn't good enough to be captain and throw him out.

1, that guy is very obviously the "I'm super good at running off writers!" person, who is made of sad and woe.

2, that doesn't make any sense. They didn't know about that when they hired him on, they literally just did it because they thought he would be easy to push around(he was when he left). Where's the logic there?
>Oh, that thing we didn't know about(Still don't know about?) when we voted you captain wasn't as impressive as we thought it was when we didn't know it happened, you're out! Instead we're going to hire on... uh... Actarius?

"You can kill me without thinking about it. Yeah, I know."

>>25783617
Sorry but I've had a rough day and while I will not take his bait, that guy is a fucking douchebag and the sooner the character I like is finally free from Bitchzilla the better.

I personally can't wait for her to be better at croquet than 77, able to handle demons better than Cheerilee, and beat 2 at Hyperspace Hyperwars.

>>25783750
>Actually, I was saying I can kind of get the feeling that they're trying to set me off... are they? I mean, is this a test?

"...Yes, it's a test, and every time you choose not to fight them, you're winning."

>But I could win harder if I fought them. I can do that, you know-

"Right right right, kill them without thinking, but this is a moral victory."

>Those are the worst kind of victories!

"Do you really want to have to admit you lost to a pony?"

>I did.

"...what?"

>I did, that happened, I lost to a pony. Lost outright, I didn't win. That happened. I lost.

"..."

>What? I can admit when I lose. I lost to my mother all the time. All the time. She used to beat my ass into the ground. The important thing is surviving, getting better, and then coming back with a vengeance! If you can breath, you can get stronger, if you can get stronger, you can win!

"...At what point did this become a PSA?"

>I feel more like I'm bragging that in addition to being above you, I'm smarter than you too. For I know the truth of-

>College, you know, them fancy learning places, should they be free?

"Huh... would de-incentivise specialty stuff a little, as we couldn't fund every little one."

>Yeah, but it would be an overall post to the economy if we had less ponies with loans... or changelings.

"Huh."

>Just saying, ya'll can obviously afford to send Two off, and Applebloommaint a problem, but what about when the baby grows up? Or Scootaloo?

"Mmm... point. It would be costly to the taxpayer, though."

"You mean competition, from the older ones."

Doesn't that make it more likely? At least if you type it, technology can tell if you're spelling it wrong. When you're writing it, you have to rely on your own knowledge and your editor to be competent, at least one of you has to be paying attention and pass second grade spelling.

You mean nc right? Ooco is out of canonical order. It is used for when you want to write a story In Cannon that is taking place at a different point on the timeline than the one we are currently viewing. So it actually happens. Usual to set things before certain major events during a different status quo period than whatever is current because what is current does not work for the story you want to tell.

NC is for when you just want to plop something out you think is funny but should not actually affect the story.

>>25787378
Nope, this happened. Pommel accomplished nothing and Chitania is the greatest.

>AJ
"Chrysalis"
~~~

It was an accident.

That was all it was, a simple accident, a simple mistake. She had panicked, she had acted without thinking, she hadn't been paying attention. She had reacted purely on the instinct that there was something reaching for the one hope she had of saving the world and fixing so many problems, and she had acted. It hadn't been malicious, it hadn't been an act of anger to her, it was a snap, nothing more.

That she had put so much into that blow spoke nothing of any feelings she might have towards the Queen, and instead solely towards the gravity of the situation. This said everything about how important this was, how much was on her shoulders, not that she hated the Queen, not that she felt anything that would drive her to do something like that.

Chrysalis would understand. She would understand the importance, even though she never let that weight settle. Even though she brushed off her own responsibilities like leaves on a toy she wished to play with. She would understand the basics, if nothing else. She would understand the fundamental needs that so many were relying on her, and she had to do whatever it took to save the day this time. They were counting on her to come through, and solve this mess with the changelings. And she could, and not only that, she could solve so many more problems, she could solve so many more things, a thousand things in Equestria that needed fixed could be solved in no time, with just a word, with just a speech. She knew her limits now, she knew the Apple was limited, it seemed. Sure, it had stopped working on the Queen, she had not been destroyed, or as she had hoped perhaps the changeling might even have a moment of clarity to realize the truth that she spoke, just like she strives to do always.

But no, either the Apple's power had reached it's limit, or she was simply too good at brushing off any truth, that even harmony magic was not powerful enough.

Still, no feelings of malice.

1/2

>>25787430

She would understand that, she would accept that she had no feelings of anger really, it had been involuntary, a snap choice, she certainly understood those.

She had done enough of them, surely, she would understand.

This was Equestria's salvation, this was her changelings salvation, by stopping her she was only hurting herself. Even without the magic to make her know it to be true, she could still explain it. She would accept that it had been an accident, that she was doing this to save her changelings, and she would not be angry with her for the blow anymore.

She just needed to explain it.

When the pang in her chest eased enough that she could look at that anger, that she could tear her eyes away from the welt on the side of the Queen's face, the bruise that she herself had left with her strike, she could explain it.

"I don't know what was so important about this that was worth it..."

She could have, if only the Queen hadn't disappeared in flame.

"But I might as well find out."

She could have, if only Chrysalis hadn't appeared over her, and cast a green glow around her apple. Cast a spell to take away her gift, to take away her victory again. Just like every time before, Chrysalis was poised to steal away her win.

Like before, it hit her, and she reacted.

>GET AWAY FROM IT AH' SAID!

It was an accident, when she took another swing right at that Queen's frowning face. It had been just as involuntary now as it had been before, every bit as much, if not more.

She very much doubted it had been involuntary when Chrysalis ducked under the blow, and struck back with her own attack.

She doubted that it had been a mistake when the force sent her tumbling over and over, out from the cavern with the Tree.

She doubted it was a look of kindness that bore down on her, looking to that apple with a hungry eye.

She wanted her gift, her means to save the world, and she wanted to take it.

>You.. ain't... taking it!

The next one would not be a mistake.

>>25787443
Fuck bitching, the hype is back!

And AJ is going full Gollum!

>>25787430

Oh

Ohhhhh nooooo

AJ isn't going to use that Apple outside of the cavern, isn't she?

>>25787443
So this is pretty much The Last Roundup:Magic Apple edition. AJ feels like she's the only one who can 'save' everyone and has to do it her way, regardless of what anyone else thinks. Only now, she also thinks she can save the whole world.

>>25787520
And also with a megalomaniac villain complicating things immensely

>>25787526
A megalomaniac who she also clearly has some unresolved feelings of anger towards, who she now feels is continuously attempting to 'steal' her victory from her again. To the point she just coldcocked the bitch who could take out Celestia and said "BRING IT!" after getting knocked one herself.

This shit just keeps getting crazier for AJ.

>>25787443

Damn, I haven't been this hype in /pa/ since shit, I can't remember.

What will happen, I don't know, and that kills me!

>>25787391
No. It didn't. Because if the root got crushe that would not release red it would again temporarily kill it until it appeared so where else. It would not run off because that is not how that has been established to work.

Sod off with your bait.

>>25787566
Fine, doesn't change the fact Pommel is a loser that never should have even had lines.

>>25787443
You know the real best part about this?

I genuinely can't tell if this is just AJ being AJ, or if the Apple is influencing her ala the Orb. Her reasoning in all of her internal thoughts is sound, and seems in character. It's always about helping others, being there for them, and saving the world. The only time she ever mentions herself is when someone is breaking down her hard work, which in the show annoys her terrible. Well, it annoys everyone, but you know what I mean.

I genuinely have no idea if the Apple is making it hard for her to think straight, or if she's completely sane, but desperate.

>>25787771
Better yet!
The Apple makes her think her excuses are truth.

>Screwloose

>Hmm… maybe you? Orrrr perhaps you? No, no, no, wait, I’m sorry, I’m forgetting about you, aren’t I? How long’s it been since you were used anyway?

“Screwloose?”

>Hush now, pervert, momma’s busy.

And indeed she was, rummaging through a worn leather satchel previously sealed with a rusted padlock.

“…Yeah, I noticed, very busy, but uh... busy with what?”

>Picking the best instrument for the task. Mmmm, maybe the 100mm with the serrated edge—always one of my personal favorites. But then again the 140mm is slenderer, perfect for quick in-out jabs… not to mention that grip is all kinds of sexy in the hoof.

A bead of nervous sweat dripped down the side of Twelve’s face when Screwloose picked up a scalpel with a hooked end that looked absolutely demented in its creation.

The fuck would a scalpel need a hooked end for?

He wished he hadn't wondered. The rather vivid depictions his mind tossed up as a possible answer only served to churn his stomach.

>Ah, Topsy! One of my very best.

She ‘tickled’ that particular scalpel underneath the curve.

>No nicks, always a glimmer in your eye, made separating tissue a breeze… Yes. You’ll do quite nicely.

“Do…? Do for what? Why does that need to do anything? For what reason?”

>Because… we have to celebrate. This is a joyous time!

“Riots, mistrust, indictments, flight of princesses, your ‘best friend’ in the castle… I think I missed the joy somewhere in there.”

>…what?

When Screwloose’s ears fell back and her tail grew limp, Twelve knew without a shadow of a doubt that he had fucked up something awful.

To date, he had never seen her looking so sincerely heartbroken since that time back at the hospital, when she feared he was leaving her.

But there she sat, fallen back on her haunches, deflated, looking at him with shimmering eyes.

So he did the only rational thing he could think of.

>>25787838

“OH SHIT I’M SORRY I’M SORRY WHATEVER IT IS I’M SORRY JUST FUCK STOP LOOKING LIKE THAT YOU SHOULD NEVER LOOK THAT I’D RATHER HAVE YOU SMILING ALL DEMENTED AND SHIT PLEASE I’M SORRY!

Which was to apologize profusely.

It didn’t work.

In fact, her bottom lip started to wibble.

Hell, she might as well have run him through with Topsy.

She sniffed, then slowly began to draw out a box. A plain white box that she lifelessly flipped open.

“…H-Happy Two Week Anniversary…?”

That was what was inscribed on top of a modest cake in icing as black as his chitin.

It took a minute, the longest minute of his life, but when it struck? It struck hard. So hard that he propelled himself forward, snatching the clown princess into a hug that left no space between them.

“I… I’m sorry—that was so stupid—to think you meant… but you didn’t… you were talking about us—about our anniversary… two weeks. Two weeks together here….”

When she snorted, it was watery, it calmed him, it was what he wanted to hear.

>Two weeks give or take a few days. Point is, we’re in the ballpark.

“…”

>…

“…”

>…You gonna stop hugging me so I can cut our ca-

“No. Not yet. Probably not for another two weeks. Give or take a few days.”

>…I’m okay with that.

As much as I'm embarrassed to admit it, when she first showed up I was like "Oh damn it, can't we use someone besides Chrysalis?" But this far in, I'm actually struggling to think up someone who would fit this situation as good as Chrysalis would, thematically or character wise. I'm coming up blank, next best one would have been Chitania, but due to the mind-altering portion she doesn't fit nearly as perfectly.

This is the perfect storm of inversion with AJ being the one with the power over minds in the relationship.

I am torn between schadenfreude and genuine sympathy whenever Team Ponyville comes up.

>>25791789
GL makes it look so easy.

>>25791845
I don't think that's an issue, 29 is literally right there. He can just give her some, he doesn't need to like her. He can control it, and how much he gives even, and everyone there sans Sunny likes him, so he's not gonna run low on juice.

"WHAT!?"

{That's how I usually got it! I knocked them out then I sapped it! And, I mean, I didn't think he'd give me any, he needs this to live! It's... well, actually kinda nice that he's just letting me have it despite the fact it's his... you know, life.}

>Oh, well... you don't have to know me out? You can just get it from me, it's not an issue. I'm more than happy to give you some.

{See, now I feel bad...}

[...TRIXIE WANTS OUT OF THE SHED NOW!]

>>25792363
...I'm not the only one impressed that she just, like, honed in on that, right? You'd figure that'd be hard to hit in the dark, but she was like a goddamn bloodhound.

>>25792525
'S been a while for her, in more than one sense. I fully expected to hear the 'Kirby inhales' sound effect

>>25789553
I legitimately do not know why everyone keeps trying to make conversation with her.

Like, I figure it probably has something to do with this being a once in a lifetime thing, but still.

>>25793012
Next time they see her has 45% minimum chance of being her trying to kill their ass. I would say it's once in a lifetime

>>25793113
That. They are NEVER gonna get another chance like this, probably. With all the ling-fear, they figure this is going to be the last time they see her when she's not fucking their shit up, might as well get your petty niggles out of your system now.

>>25793158
Speaking of which, I forget, were 13 and 32 on friendly terms last time they were together? I was gone a while so I don't know if something happened between the changelings setting out a d things going pear shaped but I have a vague memory of them being on neutral terms at the very least.

>>25793188
Last I recall she didn't like him because she's still "Chrysalis is MUH QUEEN" mode, but I might be forgetting something.

I vaguely recall them talking about whats good for the hive.

>>25793263
Damn, then nevermind, Pommel's still friends with worst ling yadda yadda

>>25793263
She likes what he's doing but not him, last I remember. Because she still is starstruck with Chrysalis(To "Chitty is sad" degrees) and Chrysalis only makes that worse because she is genuinely nice to 13. Since 32 can't go eight sentences without insulting 42 or Chrysalis, she don't like him very much.

Fun fact, 13 still has a little plastic butterfly hairclip in her hair Chrysalis gave her post Chitty-arc.

>>25793353
Actually, another question.

Would Pommel actually apologizing for falling into Chitty's gullet thus making 32 go bonkers help at all? I remember reading somewhere he blamed himself for that.

Give me something to work with here, please, I'm begging you.

>>25793378
As far as her going easier on 32? Fraid not, since he was "HATE HATE HATE" since the start, and they all know that. He chewed her out in front of everyone at the Gala after all.

13 might like Pommel better for trying to take responsibility for that, though. All Pompom has to do to make buddies with her is show he cares about her hive in some way. If she thinks he genuinely does want to help, he gets brownie points no matter who he hangs out with.

If he says Chrysalis isn't so bad, she might even like him.

>>25793378
>Give me something to work with here, please, I'm begging you.

As far assss? What? What are you hoping for here, it should be doable regardless.

>>25793455
Pretty much everything in that scenario so far has been antagonistic, I just want to write something that isn't more argument fodder.

>>25793590
Oh. Thats super easy, just have them joke about 29.

29 is loyal to the Queen as far as 13 knows, even if he does make her mad all the time, and he's 32's friend, but despite this neither Pommel or 13 have had any real interaction with him. They just know him as that really, really, really annoying motherfucker with a huge ego who talks funny. Neither would get antagonistic in that situation since they both at least respect that he is loyal/the only reason 32 is still alive, so the only argument would be what way they could make fun of his fake-ass accent. They might even bond over "Yeah, he's probably not the worst ling... but HOLY SHIT is he an annoying asshole." because neither have seen his 'good' side.

Don't even need to have a jarring segway, he's currently the topic of interest.

>>25793590
Give Pommel a really weird interest, like... I don't know, opera or something.

>You ain't taking it.

It was like watching a rockslide.

An fitting description, considering her location next to the cliffside, at the bottom of the almost moat like ring surrounding the castle long forgotten. Much like a regular pony at the bottom of an unstable cliff, watching a rockslide come down towards them, she knew that there was nothing she could really do.

It was simply too much for them, too much coming down all at once, knowing that whatever they would do, they would be covered, broken, battered and have everything they hold taken from them. Applejack knew this, she knew that as far as power, the Queen outstripped her. While she was no slouch in the fighting department, she knew that the Queen could simply outmatch her. There was nothing, really, that could be done about the dark figure moving towards her, she knew it.

>GET AWAY AH SAID!

She was going to try anyway.

She bucked the nearest stone she could find, launching the thing almost as big as herself clear to the Queens face with the intent to knock her away. The changeling never even slowed, merely blasting the thing apart without a care.

"Okay, now I'm really interested."

>I'm tellin' you to get away!

Another, larger rock, bucked with all she had, fired like it had come out of a cannon. It's speed would have given even a rocket pause.

But not the changeling.

"Whatever could that thing do?"

>Get away!

She grabbed hold of the nearest root, yanking it with her teeth until she ripped it clear from the cliff face. She snapped her new weapon around, looping the vine almost as thick as her foreleg until it so resembled the rope she wielded on any other occasion. She lashed out, seeking to tie her limbs together, to bring her low that way.

It was merely consumed in flames in no time at all.

"Well, whatever it is... you clearly need to give it to me. You're acting a bit strange, Applejack."

Nothing was working.

>Get away!

1/3

>>25798618

Desperate, she resorted to clumps of dirt, doing as little damage as one might expect from something like that. She turned to pebbles, to the tiny stones, and even turned to attempting to climb the side of the dirt wall when all of that failed.

A simple thin beam of green cut off her escape, much as she knew it could likely have cut off any other part of her had the Queen aimed it lower.

>Get away... it's mine!

She took a swing, a desperate, powerful swing, and hit nothing but air, far too easily dodged.

She could do nothing, as the Queen loomed over her.

"Applejack, give it over."

It was all crumbling, as much as if the walls of rock and dirt around her had collapsed. It was all coming down, the hopelessness, the knowledge she could never escape, could not defeat her if she tried. The powerlessness, the feeling of emptiness knowing that any strength she held would be useless. Even the magic of the Apple had left her, even that had been taken away. She had nothing left, no ace in the hole, no card left to play, no move left unused.

>No...

She was going to take it, again. Just as Rarity had taken her victory before, just as so many others had made her efforts nothing more than a waste of time before, she was about to have even this, even a gift from the most harmonious magic in all the world, if not the universe, ripped right from her hooves. She was about to lose everything, again, and there was nothing she could do about it.

>No... no..

She was small again, an earth pony against beings far beyond her power, again. Useless without her harmony magic, again. Just as she had been at the wedding, she was powerless in the face of the changeling. Just as she had been when she was marched in shame after her defeat, she was helpless as the Queen prepared to take everything from her, again.

"What is wrong with you? Give me the damn apple!"

Her hoof stamped down.

She could not.

She would not.

So, she did not.

She did not give.

She took.

2/3

>>25798628

She pulled, with everything ringing in her skull, she pulled. Her head flew back as something within her throbbed, and ached, and screamed. She threw her head back as it felt hot, like she was balancing all the fire she still had inside atop it. With it, with that fire, she brought it to her.

"Give me the-"

Words could come out no longer, for they had been crushed.

All that remained was a breathless wheeze as a stone the size of the Queen's entire midsection rose up from the ground, bursting up like a flower breaking through snow, and struck her right in the segmented rings of green surrounding her thick barrel of a chest.

The wind, and for just a second the fight, had been taken from the Queen.

It had not been taken from her.

She pulled no longer, she brought it up no longer. She wanted it, no longer.

She pushed.

The Queen let out a strangled yelp as she was rocketed backwards, the boulder newly formed flying with her as it sent the taller body clear back, to the wall just beside the entrance to the tree of harmony, and slammed her against it. Chrysalis crumbled, her breath taken from her in the shock. No such breath had been taken from herself.

>Ah' said...

She stamped her hoof again, twin spires of rock rising up to meet the unspoken call on either side of her. Her head still burned, her mind still screamed, but she could pay attention to none of it. For all the sake of the world, there was only herself, and the changeling Queen who would take everything from her.

>You ain't takin' it.

When Chrysalis rose up, she knew it had changed.

"...Alright, if you want to do it that way, fine."

When she called her flames, she knew the battle had begun.

"Let's see if that apple is worth it."

She had no idea.

>Ugh!

AJ goes for a flying kick, but ShadowAJ grabs and slams her hard to the ground.
"Argh!"

'Oh, so now you decide you want to help. It's always too late isn't it?'

>You...have to yell your attack AJ!

'You talk too much.'
Her tongue wraps around binding Pinkie, pulling her closer, and she raises the shotgun to Pinkie's face. Time slows down for Pinkie as mind races.

>(I'm getting that craving again. What is it? It's like when I see this shadow...I want to...I want to...)
She gets a hungry look in her eyes and in the moment...she opens her mouth wide and-

"APPLE WARHAMMER!"
AJ slams an apple shaped warhammer at ShadowAJ's back releasing Pinkie.
"APPLE BINDING!"
ShadowAJ's legs get tied together.
"Ah, don't know what's going on, but you're not hurting Pinkie! APPLE GRIND!"
AJ jumps and does a spin which drills her back legs into ShadowAJ. She then puts Pinkie on her back and runs.

Sorry, would have churned it out sooner, but got hung up looking up weapons, which lead to watching fights on youtube...which went to other youtube vids...which went to other internet stuff...I hate having ADHD.

Is it wrong if I feel my hype is quenched given the fact that the scenario where AJ gets all this neat new shit both character and magic wise is most likely going to end up with some sort of "Good job, Chrysalis for stopping that crazy mudpone" / "And there was much grovelling" resolution?

>>25799686
No one is around Anon, who are they going to believe?

Also, AJ is going a lil powermad, it wouldn't be right if she didn't get the proper smackdown for it.

I mean unless you want Fluttershy to waltz over and solve this, except the apple is literally the one thing she can't do shit about. But Friendship not hurting your appul anymore (or really at all) resolution would work best.

Maybe? I dunno, in a sense Chrysalis works great cause it's thematic or some shit.

But at the same time, it'll be a Chrysalis wins endgame

It's the onky proper way for this to end: Someone else in a dungeon for attacking Chryssy.

>>25800263
>in a sense Chrysalis works great cause it's thematic or some shit.

Not just the themes of mind-control or that, but she just plain works perfect for the story. She's just close enough to being a friend that this would be emotional in some way for AJ, but just far away enough that AJ could legitimately think she's trying to steal the Apple, and not have it be her being crazy. Chrysalis would totally want an apple that makes anyone believe what you say, Applejack isn't wrong there.

That and Chrysalis is the only one that, when Applejack hit her, would take it to mean "It's on!" rather than "Gasp! Applejack? Hitting someone? The horror!" And the only one that Applejack would think she doesn't stand a chance in a fight against, pushing her to dig in as deep as she can in desperation. She's not afraid of hurting Chrysalis right now(insert "World of Cardboard" speech at your leisure.) so we can have an action scene with AJ like we've never had before. She fits pretty damn perfect here in literally every aspect.

Of course, the real winner here is going to be Applejack regardless. Even if she loses the fight(which I don't know that she will, I've seen more surprising wins). Because for all the pew pews and punches, the real important part is that we get to see AJ be interesting. Chrysalis is only here because she fits APPLEJACK'S story, and not the other way around. That's a win to me.

Because it sounds in character for both of them to put the kibosh on it, even with Flutterbutter's blessing.

>>25801117

>Putting a kibosh on a food source that she can control

That does not sound remotely in character. If anything, she'd try to take the reigns and make him do it harder somehow. Guess it can kind of fit AJ since it's being unnatural with nature, but Chrysalis would be all for it.

>>25801148
>>25801148
She might do that. But n the other hand she'd probably be super pissed he ran off and did something she didn't order *again*. While you can argue 'but it helps the changelings' we don't know the full extent of the plan, and many of us have been suspicious of it, possibly rightly so with blossom and the digging under canterlot remaining unknowns in this scenario. She may not like his master plan and it would certainly only raise tensions with ponies at a delicate time.

Chrysalis isn't known for her patience and understanding. Her paranoia and over reactions to any challenge to her authority real or perceived however....

If anything, you'd think that she's just happy this time didn't end with him in the hospital again.

She'd just count this crazy scheme as a win for the lack of broken bones alone.

>>25801572
I'm not sure. She doesn't seem to mind when he winds up in hospital. Any of the others she is all kinds of pissed. Him? Sadly not so much.

>>25801806
That's wrong, actually. Hell, she's one of the very, VERY few she admitted makes her worried with this shit. He ran off before he could hear it, but post Varry she said the part that made her mad wasn't that he disobeyed again, but that he keeps doing it and almost dying. She gets mad at him, but that one moment proves that under it all, she is worried about him first and foremost.

>>25801806
He's got a weird relationship with her. On the one hand, he makes her so angry all the damn time, she's ready to snap his head off most days. On the other, she knows he's doing it to make her happy and serve her, like with the 29 stuff, so she at least respects what he's trying to do.

The last time she really got pissed at him was when he went after 29 after she said she would handle it, but when he ran off to go save 12 she just said she wanted him to stop putting himself in unnecessary risks. They haven't spoken since then.

He's right, she'd just be thankful he wasn't doing something that might get him killed, and since it's benefiting the changelings instead of risking them, she might even thank him. Shoot, with all her thoughts of getting out on her own, she might even full on pat him on the head, but for sure she wouldn't be angry at him for this.

>>25801971
But it is risking them a bit. If ponies knew what he was up to do you think they wouldn't freak out?

They're having conniptions over a ling using it's powers to actively HELP a different country.

>>25802283
>But it is risking them a bit.

Actually? He did it right. He kept it far away from any prying eyes, he didn't overreach his bounds and break into anyplace that they could trace back to him, when offered he took the help of an Equestrian official princess, and he remained peaceful as he could during the whole process while doing everything he can to remain hidden. Most importantly, he did it in a way that couldn't be traced back to her or the Hive.

Yes, things would be bad NOW, but if this had come out a week ago, it would've been minor news at best. A crazy ling scientist, out in the middle of the woods being crazy! That's all he would have been. Not his fault that someone else changed the game.

Thinking further on it, this might actually make him even more lenient. She would have told him to hang back if he had just asked her back at the 12 arc, but now the game has changed, and nobody trusts them and she might be at the very corner of the world. He might have, completely accidentally, given her an asset and allybase that is invaluable in a time like this, and if fighting breaks out then she's got someone to hang back on. Sure, the ponies freaked out, but nothing that happened from Seven. And now that it's out, she can see that even when they're helping ponies, they're going to buck the trend, so why the fuck would she think LESS of a ling who was making sure her Hive got another source of food? Why would she turn on the guy helping her?

Yeah, he'd get a headpat, probably. Maybe a light one when she figures out he hasn't actually achieved anything yet, but she'd appreciate the work he put in to make sure this never got discovered, and certainly the intentions behind it. Guy took initiative, didn't get hurt, and didn't cause a panic, 18 did that. And now, hey, worst case scenario she has a bitching Manticore who is willing to defend changelings.

To Chrysalis, this would be an all around win.

I find it kinda amusing you assume it's just one guy and keep pointing it out. I mean, seriously, are you going to go 'Oh no, it's THAT guy again' at anyone pissed off , abrasive or doesn't like certain trends?

That's so absolutely ignorant, you'd make the Equestrian population look like professional sleuths instead of brain-damaged gophers.

And ascended self-insert isn't far off from the truth at all. 18's current situation, position and relationships are extremely shaped by that one guy who dominated that one thread and then went 'I felt so stressed lately and had to get it all out because I saw myself in her and so at least she gets rewarded for her work' and everyone felt too arkward after all his hard work to say that it was pretty damn forced.

>>25802858
Also, >>25802518 was sarcasm. I seriously think saying that 18 acted any less friendly and secretive and more invasive than 7 is stupid. At least she isn't going all

Which is exactly what that one guy said, And all the follow up stuff where he just kept trying. Joys of anonymity man, when the guy who has all the same flags as that guy then follows up with the same "Insult a character and go OC OC OC!" style after it fails the first time, or rather fails for the who knows how often, you start to see a trend. The timing just was not right if you were trying to get something across. It comes across like>>25802930, essentially.

And we're never afraid to tell someone if the story is lacking or forced just because they worked hard, that one guy with the Spike subplot had a whole thing written out that he scrapped because of that even.

>>25802858
>That's so absolutely ignorant, you'd make the Equestrian population look like professional sleuths instead of brain-damaged gophers.

>Same asshole shows up earlier this same thread still trying.
>"Wow! Why would you think I was that asshole? Totally out of the blue!"

Come on, man.

>and everyone felt too arkward after all his hard work to say that it was pretty damn forced.

Pffft.

Also, what's the term when you take a character who isn't a self insert to tell a story you want to see for that character who you empathize with? He didn't make 18, the guy who did even commented at the end that he liked the story and wanted to do something like that, but didn't have the writing chops he felt.

What's the term for that?

>>25803022
Like you can just drive someone away. That's just too ridonculous. But, notice, no one usually responds to the obligatory outsider spouting crap like 'apple is shit' or 'you need to sop the generals'. It's way worse if you have someone who argues, if badly, that something feels digesting or terrible to them in this thread. Because these people followed and read this shtick for a while.

For you to toss them all into the same 'It must be Peridot's doing!' bin just proves how far you've got your noses up your own assessment and refuse to acknowledge you have a problem. Namely one of narrative decay.

And my point still stands. It's cute you defend the subplot where Shining Armor first began approaching his marriage in a far more lax manner a whole two outsiders have begun taking advantage of, with many more planned. And while this whole harem hype disgusts me like nothing else I this thread, I accept that's what some people want since they need their Anon in Equestria equivalent.

On the original point, I still think 7 did far faaaaar worse than 18. He needs a bitchslap, not a pat to encourage him. He's clearly crazy-desperate.

If you argued a little less like a 15 year old cunt trying to be cheeky with your baiting question, i woulf at least take you for full.

>>25803125
>It's way worse if you have someone who argues, if badly, that something feels digesting or terrible to them in this thread.

But nobody ever calls those out for being that guy, just the vague, generic OC-focused insults. Because that's what he does.

>For you to toss them all into the same 'It must be Peridot's doing!' bin just proves how far you've got your noses up your own assessment and refuse to acknowledge you have a problem.

Responding to "Seriously, screw that self-absorbed, ascended self-insert OC." with anything other than "Oh wow, this asshole again?" would be a sign of that. Honestly? This guy>>25802702 should never have responded at all, but he wanted to name the guy. It's just a generic insult, not a debate.

>And my point still stands. It's cute you defend the subplot where Shining Armor first began approaching his marriage in a far more lax manner a whole two outsiders have begun taking advantage of, with many more planned.

Because they're taking the very slow time to make it work. It's taking months and a fuckton of writing, but they're not rushing into it and not forcing it, and they're even using it to create humorous scenarios. Which is what the intentin should be.

>On the original point, I still think 7 did far faaaaar worse than 18. He needs a bitchslap, not a pat to encourage him. He's clearly crazy-desperate.

Agreed 7 is worse than 18 due to him only caring about his Hive and not bettering anyone else, in addition to keeping his own plans, and no durr he's desperate that's his whole thing, he got pushed into a corner trying to make Chrysalis happy and this is the result. But no, he doesn't deserve a bitchslap, he hasn't done anything but make animals smart.... the horror?

>If you argued a little less like a 15 year old cunt trying to be cheeky with your baiting question, i woulf at least take you for full.

Maybe because the overuse and glorification of OCS over canon characters makes this a self-indulgent Masturbation fantasy in some people's eyes?

>Which is what the intentin should be.
You wrote intention wrong. Just to point out your hipocrisy about grammar below, asshat.

>no durr
More bad grammar.

>But no, he doesn't deserve a bitchslap, he hasn't done anything but make animals smart.... the horror?
Secret burrowing below Canterlot. Tricking Fluttershy into shutting down a rival of the company the mare he bangs works for. Something with that sneaky creature in the dark working out something CLEARLY illegal. Need I say more?

>I'm gonna take the high road and just say that your grammar needs work if you want to make a point.
Right. Because reducing an argument to punctuation and grammar is certainly the HIGH ROAD. Not like I am typing this on the phone and autocorrect being an ass is new, right? Jesus. How smug can you be about your own, wro g opinion?

>>25803368
>Then why the hell are you so insistent on proving anything and arguing with me!

Honestly? Thought you wanted to actually debate something and were angry that guy dismissed you for being someone else, and you were angry because you didn't get the chance to actually have a discussion on some aspect like you wanted.

Nevermind.

>>25803395
>Honestly? Thought you wanted to actually debate something
Debate eats up posts. Posts that could be filled with fun and writing. I hate debate. It's a drag and a downer.

>you were angry
Pretty much. But discussing how much I hate a traditional value like marriage being pissed, then MASTURBATED on by fucktards who have never been in a meaningful relationship in their life, much less something as lasting as a genuinely loving marriage won't change how the plot evolved and will keep on evolving.

Some of you guys just want to see Shiny slam his good old cock into Celestia's, his sister's nd pretty much every Changeling character you conceived's cunt.

All females of course. Even the one who adores Cadence. For reasons I don't even want to imagine.

>Nevermind.
Finally, something we can agree on.

>>25803468
Ah, so you're against the FULL HAREM END
Completely understandable, though I don't entirely agree. I personally like the relationship slowly growing between Shining and 18, it feels real, just as real as Shining's love for Cadance

It was fine the way it was intended. Young love. Recent marriage. But before they could even face the hurdle of trust and a child, but 18 comes along.
I could... accept that. Relationships are changing and the dynamics of it. The heart wanders.

I can respect if Shining loves two mare equally. And I respect Cadence for having the greatness to accept it and love him no less for it.

But with the recent addition of 42, Chrysalis almost kissing him and him letting it happen and the constant Celly-Shiny shiptease, it's getting absolutely ridiculous. That stallion is pretty much whoring around and goofing off at this point while his wife is facing a crisis in all aspects of her life.

Hell, while she is trying to better herself and the uncertainty whether she can love 18 is eating her up, he's merrily planning his next date.

And that's not even grazing the constant topic of him fucking anything that moves in OOC. That joke is worn thin to the breaking point.

Sorry to say, but he has become Anon in Equeatria's stand-in.

>>25803643
>But with the recent addition of 42,

Addition how? She just admitted that's how she felt, they didn't go any further than that.

>Hell, while she is trying to better herself and the uncertainty whether she can love 18 is eating her up, he's merrily planning his next date.

He wasn't planning it, he brought it up while 18 was wondering if the universe was telling her to give up as a way to show HE wasn't giving up.

And the first thing and repeated thing he did is try to be supportive to Cadence post reveal, she's just outright ignoring him or in some cases actually telling him to leave. She's even dismissive of him when he tries to bring up the fallout of the gryphon thing. He wants to be there, but she's too determined to be alone, he's just letting her because he thinks that's what she has to do because he believes in her, always has, and he said as much multiple times. Oh, and he thinks she's still 100 percent okay with 18, because she says she is all the time, and that hasn't changed.

>That stallion is pretty much whoring around and goofing off at this point while his wife is facing a crisis

You can't say he's whoring around or goofing off when he is A, not sleeping or even having any sort of physical activity with anyone, and B, doing actual work like talking to dignitaries, going through paperwork to find which ones Cadence did, and making sure riots aren't breaking out. His wife shut herself in a room and started studying, and the few times he tried to get in she pushed him away.

>And that's not even grazing the constant topic of him fucking anything that moves in OOC.

I still find it funny.

>he has become Anon in Equeatria's stand-in.

You've said this before, and there is still no AIE equivalent of an anon being happily married, but never ever having sex to the point of running gag, getting to date another mare and STILL never having any sex, and teasing a bunch of others, but still never having any sex.

It doesn't happen.

42 isn't a recent addition. She's wanted him since...geeze, pre gala?

Until the 18 bit showed up she was on point to be wife 2. The reason the whe 'she's into caddy' bit began was because at the time, somewhere before or during party land, anon's thought it'd make it easier for her to get in there.

Really not new.

>>25804193
>She's wanted him since...geeze, pre gala?

Had to be, she really wanted him to ask her to dance at the gala, and him doing so was something she considered to be the most magical time of her life.

Though you should note that even then, she was always the closest to Caddy since the early days, we're talking pre-invasion even. Her being attracted to Caddy wasn't out of the blue, if anything it makes a ton more sense than 18's does.

>>25803727

Spike was actually our Anon substitute. we even gave him the one canon story involving Anon (by rewriting it as Spike in his spot).

But Shinning fulfills the other half of the Anon spectrum just fine. and you know what, I'm okay with that. Because at least it is a pony from the show and not a green skinned stand in.

Those are just the ones off the top of my head. There are two in that list without a canon pony involvement. Unless we are doing that thing where anyone outside the mane 6 and Spike is automatically an OC, then it goes to five. Butt hen again Alicorn AJ/Rarity/Fluttershy are non canon to the show so I guess they are OCs too, right? And Spike too since before Flim and Flam were revived he killed ponies.So I guess that leaves 2 without exclusively OC plots. I see what you mean now.

I don't know why I try to make plans for this when I don't even follow through on them.

>Welcome to Late Night /pa/ with your host Pinkie Pie! It's during this time that content doesn't matter, and let's go where everypony knows your name!

AJ and Pinkie run into the bar.
"Is this a normal thing for you? Fighting dream creatures?"

>Sort of. In the past I had help from Discord, Luna, and the Pink Pony Club, but this is the first time I've gone without any of them. I hope you're a fast learner because this is going to be a crash course. Just do what I say and don't question it. It's just easier that way.

ShadowAJ appears.
'Applejack? Learn? What a silly concept. Don't worry though. Once Ah take over Ah can make changes for the better.'

"She wants to what now?"

>She wants to take over your mind. Try to keep up! Pop out the lights!

"This is happening so fast."

>Applejack stop talking and kick those light bulbs!
They jump and break the lights above them making their side of the bar dark.

'You think you darkness is going to hide you? Ah was born from the dark. Molded by it.'
A whisky bottle is flung and shatters on the back of her head. ShadowAJ raises her eyebrow and turns around to see a cardboard cutout standing there.
*BANG*
The cutout crumbles from the shotgun blast. ShadowAJ turns forward again and finds 3 more angry looking cutouts standing in front of her.
'...cute.'
The light flickers and goes out.
'...real cute.'
*BANG BANG BANG BANG FWISH FWISH*

>Now sneak out while we're spoilered.

"What?"

>No questions!

"...this is a really Pinkie night."
