Ponies, magic, friendship, rainbows. What's not to like?

replace the characters with transforming robots and suddenly the haters would love it, despite being theexact same thing.

I'm getting kinda sick of "generals"

If you yourself have nothing to discuss. Don't make a thread. Simply wait until you DO have something to discuss, and then make a thread about it. Otherwise wait for someone else to make a thread about something THEY want to discuss.

Otherwise you just get all these clusterfuck threads with no real direction or point that people refuse to let die.

>>21723285

we need a place to post all of our fan fic to preserve it for future Bronies.

Agent X Field Report 01
Site Three
Fourth Week of Expedition

I arrived without incident at the target location four weeks ago, and
my disguise appears to have been accepted by the local community. As
such, please excuse the moniker above. My chosen cover is a delicate
one, and I must take great pains to preserve it.
In my relatively short time here, I have already learned much.
The seemingly benign appearance of this culture belies its true nature.
There is something far more sinister at work here, and more still of
interest to us: An ancient prophecy foretelling the downfall of
Equestria's greatest, secret foe, the Princess Celestia.

This is but an excerpt of the entire text:
"And at the Twilight Hour, when Heaven's Bane is brightest, the
Orbs shall align and the Great Deliverer shall recover that which was
taken. Thus shall come the End of Heaven's Blight, and Dawn of Pony
Morrow's Light."
-- Missing Page from "Predictions and Prophecies" detailing the
"Prophecy of Harmony", and continuing the legend of Nightmare Moon.
(A full transcription of the text will be sent after I have completely
translated it.)

This ancient legend tells of several individuals that will
band together in the coming battle, and I believe that, after examining a
large part of the manuscript, I have discerned several of their
identities. I will attempt to profile each of them in this report
(and those following).
Also, as so much of my time here is left to considerably more
dangerous activities, I will write these dossiers with what I hope will be an
entertaining narrative.

we should start numbering these. so people know of our dedication

>>21723401
There's some on the plus thread, although I don't know if that thread's got a lot of time left

>>21723440
Twilight Sparkle

The magical studies of the pony known as Twilight Sparkle under the
tutelage of Princess Celestia are far from the innocent passing of
knowledge from one to another. One day, Celestia will have to leave her
throne to another, far younger pony. After all, the Princess is not
immortal... Yet.
In her early studies of the Elements of Harmony, Celestia happened
upon an old passage detailing how one pony, talented in the magical arts,
could inhabit the body of another, leaving their own aged shell behind.
And so, the Princess keeps an ever-watchful eye on her "pupil" from
afar, biding her time until the young pony is ready to recieve her destiny.

But Twilight's tenaciousness in researching the Ancient Prophecies
seems to trouble Celestia. She had never intended for her student to
learn of the Elements of Harmony (The one force that could vanquish
her), or the legend fortelling the return of the second princess, Luna,
even if the story had been altered. Once Celestia recieved Twilight's
letter about the legend of Nightmare Moon, the Princess knew she would
have to distance Twilight from her books as quickly as possible, and so
she ordered the young mare to oversee the celebrations at Ponyville,
under the false pretense of "making friends".

Pony D20 game..
Hmm..could have it set to various campaign. First trying to get your cutie mark..forming friendships.
Amassing an army to force out Princess Celestia.

>>21723449
Celestia thought she had been thorough when she destroyed and
rewrote the passages describing the Elements and the Mare in the Moon,
but it appeared that the former Royal Chronicler had been more
crafty before her "conversion" than the Princess had given her credit
for, and must have preserved a select number of the original volumes.
For how else could Twilight have still learned about the Element's
location while in Ponyville?
The Princess was terrified to think that Twilight might have discovered
her changes in the unaltered volume, and harness the Elements to
defeat Celestia herself! Fortunately, her cover had been maintained, and
the small group of ponies instead used the Elements to strip Luna of her
new-found power. In her glee, the Princess "congratulated" her
vessel-in-training on a job well done, saying that the suggestion to make
friends of Ponyville's citizens was intended to lead Twilight to the
Elements in the first place!
Though the Elements are once-again active, Celestia appears
unconcerned. None seem to suspect her plans, and her agents are hard
at work seeking the remaining unaltered books. The Princess needs only
to watch and wait as her student prepares herself for her new life.

>>21723461
Snips and Snails

Despite Celestia's apparent efforts to eradicate magical talent in
Equestria's male population through selective breeding (And, in some
cases, murder), Snips and Snails are the first male ponies in a
near-millenia to possess the great power usually enjoyed only by the
mares of their race.
Seeking to correct this error, Celestia erased their minds, and sent them
to live the rest of their pathetic lives at her secret "convert" camp, known
to most as Ponyville. However, their magic was strong, and protected
their subconcious minds from harm. Though they appear to be naught
but harmless buffoons, one day their minds shall return, and the full
might of their power restored.

More to be added as my research continues.

Sixth Week of Expedition

As you can see, I have deduced the Ponies' manner of marking the
passage of time. I will mark all further entries thusly, and never using our
own system, lest any of my reports be discovered and reveal my
location of origin to the ponies. I fear infiltrating Site Three would not be
so easy a second time...
My studies of the Ponies and their affairs are progressing slower than I
might have hoped. The information contained in these reports was hard-
earned, and I can only pray that my sources have not been discovered
and given untimely ends, merely to satisfy our curiosity.
However, I have learned much since my last entry, and submit it for your
evaluation.
---
Derpy Hooves

Despite my greatest efforts, this pony defies my analysis. All that I have
been able to gather is that she once held high authority in Celestia's inner
circle (But of what kind, I cannot deduce) before she was violently
stripped of her memories by Celestia, leaving her eyes permanently
transfixed in opposite direction of each other. She now seems to enjoy
a fairly light-hearted existence as Site Three's resident postal carrier, and
is surprisingly adept at her profession, despite her handicap.
I have been unsuccessful in determining why the memory-eradication
spell affected Derpy so much more adversely than Celestia's other
victims, but I am confident that, in time, the answer will reveal itself.

>>21723479
mousey girls need to be flat, to add to mouseyness. Fluttershy is flat.

>UNACCPETABLE

...they could never be human because Celestia hated humans so much, she murdered each last one of them...

>>21723530
Princesses Luna and Celestia

The story of the two chief monarchs of Equestria is one of greed,
deceit, and the relentless pursuit of power. As I have already mentioned
in my analysis of the one called Twilight Sparkle, most records
concerning the sisters are falsified, twisted versions of actual events,
perpetuated by Princess Celestia and her sinister agents. I shall do my
best to piece together a legible account of what I believe is the true story.
Over a thousand years ago, the two royal sisters Celestia and
Luna were commanded by their dying mother, Queen Astra,
to assume her royal responsibilities: Ruling justly and fairly over the ponies
of Equestria and, perhaps more importantly, the raising of the Sun during
the day, and the Moon at night. To Celestia, the eldest, she gave the Sun,
beacon of light and prosperity to all of Equestria and lands beyond. To
Luna, she gave the Moon, and the solitary, quiet tranquility of night. Being
the youngest, Luna thought herself cheated, doomed to forever stand
lonely vigil as all of her fellow ponies slept. In fact, her mother thought Luna
the wisest of the two sisters, and gave Celestia the Sun only to appease
her, and to keep the sisters from quarreling.

>>21723382
>>21723402
That got me thinking... And now, for your consideration, I'd like to suggest making a drawing of a pony general. With a pickelhaube and everything.

>>21723544
nd so, for 100 years, the Princesses carried out their solemn duties.
Celestia grew into a stunning reflection of her mother, regal and elegant,
while Luna blossomed into a rare, magnificent mare of dark blue,
befitting the nightly station she held. Though both were beautiful,
Celestia's heart grew dark as her ever-present lust for power nurtured
itself.
While Luna wanted only to oversee her subjects with kind and
benevolent eyes, Celestia sought absolute control and dominance in her
rule, studying dark magic in order to bend Equestria's population to her
will. Before long, the two grew suspicious of each other, and Luna made
her own studies of the Ancient magic, becoming adept at
transmogrification and the creation of constructs. Celestia "convinced"
several ponies that Luna grew irritated with her nighttime vigil, and would
soon seek to usurp Celestia from her throne. It was only a matter of
time until the two would face each other in battle.
Every day, Luna saw Celestia's grip on the populace becoming
stronger, and she pored over the old tomes searching for an answer,
until finally, she found it: The Sun itself gave Celestia her power! If Luna
refused to lower the Moon, her sister would no longer be able to
brainwash the ponies of Equestria! But before she could execute her
plan, Celestia used the Elements of Harmony to imprison Luna and her
two most trusted guardians in the moon, leaving Celestia as sole
monarch of Equestria. However, before the incantation was complete,
Luna added a single part to the spell, allowing her return in a thousand
year's time.

>>21723511
you kidding? Rarity would have a lithe, almost fashion-model like body.
I say almost because she wouldn't be starving herself-- an eating disorders would NOT be fashionable, in her opinion. She would just stay perfectly trim with a balanced diet and light exercise.

>>21723562
And so, Luna became the Mare in the Moon, passing from memory to
legend, from legend to myth. The years drove her mad, twisting her
thoughts from that of using the Moon to stop Celestia to plunging
Equestria into eternal darkness.
Last month, Luna finally returned, but was transformed into a
mere shadow of her former self by the Elements of Harmony,
subservient and loyal to Celestia. If my research of the Prophecy is any
indication, this spell shall eventually be broken, and Luna shall defeat
her sister and finally bring peace to all of Equestria.

That is all I have learned for now. I shall update you on my progress
in two weeks time.

Ninth Week of Expedition

Director XXXXX, thank you for your personal message included in last
week's data burst. Despite my training regarding cultural immersion, it is
always comforting to hear a friendly voice in my native tongue while on
assignment.
I am pleased to hear that you are so fascinated by the
Elements of Harmony, as they are a most interesting subject of study
here for me, as well. And so, as a reprieve from my usual dispatches, I will
instead send all of my notes regarding the Elements thus far. I am
confident that you will find this research enjoyable, and in return I humbly
ask that you tell my husband that I miss him terribly, and that I love him very
much.

The Elements of Harmony

As far as I've been able to discern, the Elements have existed since
before the dawn of time on this world. Cave drawings by various cultures
from around the globe have depicted a great source of power
(represented by six symbols) in nearly all of their creation myths.
However, the elements are depicted as belonging to many different
masters in these drawings, rather than only the goddess Andromeda of
pony lore.
What follows is as accurate an account as I can make of the Element's
history; A tale of greed, war, and the lust for power.

>>21723589
The Tale of Two Brothers

The earliest, most likely record of ownership that I've been able to find
(and a sketchy one at that) is an old folk tale about Thorntail, the ancient
Dragon king, who had (allegedly) forged the Elements from the same fire
he had spurt forth to create the Heavens. Thorntail's younger brother
Prince Savage was selfish and very jealous of Thorntail's power, and
wanted to take the Element's power for his own.

The story goes, "One day, Thorntail invited Savage to go flying with him. It
wasn't long until the pair came across Mother Duck and her ducklings next
to a raging river, their eyes red with tears. 'Why do you cry, Mother Duck?',
Thorntail asked. 'My ducklings and I wish to cross this river, but it is too
strong, and we would be washed away', she said.
Savage scoffed at Mother Duck's plight. 'We are much too busy and kingly
to help the likes of you!' But the Dragon King had Kindness and Loyalty in
his heart, so he used the power of these Elements to calm the rushing
waters, allowing Mother Duck and her children to cross. Mother Duck
thanked Thorntail for his help, and the brothers flew away.

"The two brothers went on flying, until they happened upon Squirrel and
Chipmunk fighting down below them. 'Why do you quarrel, Chipmunk and
Squirrel?', Thorntail asked. 'We are both collecting food for winter, but
SquirreI tricked me so that he could have it all for himself!', Chipmunk said.
'Now I have no food, and Squirrel will not give me any of his, so I will
starve!'

>>21723566
No, I think rarity would be plain and healthy.Her sense of fashion and make up is what make her look beautifull and "different", but once she clean her face she's probably "background pony" level

>>21723596
'Squirrel was clever and got to the food first', Savage said, 'so he should
be allowed to keep it. That is the Law of Nature.' But the Dragon King had
Generosity and Honesty in his heart, so he used these Elements to
conjure enough food for Chipmunk and to last the whole winter. Chipmunk
thanked Thorntail, and the brothers flew away.

"Both Thorntail and Savage continued flying for a while before they saw
Badger shouting at the pony children laughing and playing in front of his
house. 'Why do you shout, Badger?', Thorntail asked. 'These ponies are
so young and happy, and spend their time playing before my house and
making me feel old! I only want to laugh and play with them, but I cannot,
and that is why I shout.'
Savage scoffed again, saying 'You ARE old, Badger, and should go back
into your house to spend the rest of your days alone.' But the Dragon King
had Laughter and Magic in his heart, and used these Elements to make
Badger young again so that he could play with the young ponies. Badger
thanked Thorntail, and the brothers flew away.

"Finally, Savage confronted Thorntail. 'Give me the Elements, brother, so
that I can control the water, make the old young, and conjure food out of the
air.' But Thorntail would not, because he knew Savage would only use the
Element's great power for himself, and not to help others. This angered
Savage, and he vowed to one day take the Elements for himself.
One night, while Thorntail was sleeping, Savage stole the Elements from
his brother's heart and flew off to far away lands. But no matter how hard he
tried, Savage could not use the Element's power because of the greed in
his heart, so he hid them in a secret place for his children to one day find
and take their places as the true Kings of the land.
And that is how the kingdoms of Dragon and Wyvern were born."
---

>>21723601
The Wyvern War

No other mention of the Elements of Harmony appeared for the next 600
years, and several cultures from all over the world seemed to have
relentlessly searched for them throughout the centuries. Despite their
efforts, the Elements appeared lost for all time, until a Pony-led
archaeological expedition uncovered them in 6290 B.C. (Before Celestia),
and returned them to the Dragon King Talon (A descendant of Thorntail
himself, and great friend to Queen Cosmosia of Equestria), believing the
Dragon Kingdom to be their rightful owner. However, the descendants of
Savage (Led by the tyrant-king Savage the XII) said that the Elements
were their birthright, and demanded that they be delivered safely to Wyvern
territory under threat of war. Talon would not concede, and soon after, the
Wyvern War began.
The conflict waged on for several years, with heavy casualties; Talon
pleaded with Cosmosia to commit troops to his side, but she would not,
convinced that a diplomatic solution could be found to avoid more
bloodshed. It wasn't until a Wyvern attack on an Equestrian aid hospital that
Cosmosia reluctantly entered the war, and after several joint efforts, the
ponies helped the dragons claim a decisive victory.
As a show of gratitude, Talon entrusted Cosmosia herself with protecting
the Elements of Harmony, in the hope that the Wyverns would
not dare challenge her authority. The Queen accepted, and locked the
Elements away deep inside her Royal Vault, never to be seen again.

>>21723566
I think she'd be more towards "normal" in body size, as she's the wonderful designer, not the wonderful model

>>21723607
The Rise of Celestia

Several thousand years passed, with guardianship of the Elements
passing in secret to each Queen in the royal Pony line (Mares seem to
have traditionally held positions of authority in Equestria, with males
delegated to more, shall we say "earthen" tasks... More on that later), from
Queen Cosmosia to Elia, then to Mandala and Soleil, and finally to Queen
Astra, the mother of Luna and Celestia. No Queen had ever seen fit to use
the Elements, and so this great power faded from memory into nothing but
mere myth.
But fortune favored the curious, it seemed, and following Astra's death
the not-yet wicked Princess Celestia spent much time researching the
Elements while sharing the throne with her sister. It wasn't long until she
was able to uncover the ancient Royal Vault and absorb the Elements into
her body, despite her mother's warnings. Eventually, Celestia's new-found
power gave her a feeling of superiority and dominance over Luna, and as
the elements of kindness, laughter, generosity, honesty and loyalty began
to fade from her heart, thus did her grip on the Power begin to weaken.
It wasn't until that fateful confrontation with Luna 1000 years ago
that the Elements rested once again. In a great battle that badly damaged
the Castle of Queens, Celestia showed her true colors and used the
Elements to banish her sister to the moon. In this final act of greed and
malice, the Elements expunged themselves from Celestia's body in a great
explosion that destroyed the rest of the castle. As Celestia's soul clearly no
longer served the goal of the Elements themselves, she could no longer
touch them, and so she left them to rest in the castle ruins as she built her
new capitol of Canterlot, altering all records of the Element's existence that
she could find, completely obsessed with finding a way of reclaiming this
great power for herself once again.

>>21723511
>rarity
>big tits

nope. she is an ironingboard. thats the real reason she was mad at aj. she jelly.

>>21723617
So it was for a thousand years, until the Elements were awakened once
again by the most unlikely collection of bearers...
---


The Guardians of Harmony

This information is relatively new, and something I have already covered
once before; Over a month ago, the Elements were absorbed by several
bearers, rather than by a single being. Six ponies, led by the one called
Twilight Sparkle, each gained control over a single Element, and from what
I have seen of their devotion to their respective qualities, I surmise that
it will be extremely difficult to seperate them from their new found powers.
Also, I believe that this group may be referenced in an early part of the
"Prophecy of Harmony":

"The Six will come to embody that which Evil cannot know, many parts of a
whole, together as One.
So shall the Sword be Forged, and the War of the Elements begun."

>>21723611
every board makes fun of every board, get over yourself

>>21723621
you don't know how to read apparently

>>21723625
It is my belief that this land grows ever-closer to the conflict described in
this prophecy, and I must admit that I am beginning to fear for my safety.
However, "Knowledge is Power", as we always say, and if I were to pass
up this opportunity of this magnitudesimply to keep myself out of harm's
way, I would never forgive myself.
And so, I shall remain, and complete my mission. However, I do not have
nearly enough material for my next transmission, and am unable to predict
when, exactly, my next transmission will be made. However, you should
expect my next dispatch before the next month is out.
I can only hope that what I have uncovered so far has been of interest to
the Academy, and that I may return home soon.

Well It's a cartoon and it belongs here, no matter what your opinions on it.

Might I suggest the 4chan thread filter?

http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/33916

>>21723775

That guy lays it out terribly. His idea is for people to make a Pony thread when they have something specific to talk about -- THAT MEANS FIFTY FUCKING PONY THREADS.

We started keeping a constant MLP General to get rid of the constant wave of MLP threads going at the same time.

But if everybody making a Pony thread to talk about whatever *they* wanna talk about is what /co/ wants we can definitely go back to multiple pony threads at the same time.

>>21723775

First of all, my bad. I'm not exactly "you people" because I don't watch MLP and I haven't read the thread, so I didn't really know what the discussion was rooted in.

Second of all, I think you've got that ass-backwards.

The presence of a "General" for MLP probably keeps the number of MLP threads floating around at any given time to a minimum.

If you have a problem with MLP threads, that should be a good thing.

Like on /toy/, people were bitching about the fact that, at any given time, there were like 5 Kamen Rider threads on page 0. Now there's always Kamen Rider General thread, and that doesn't happen anymore, and they don't bitch.

I don't think they should have been bitching to begin with, but they realized that the General thread was a good thing for the people doing the bitching as well as the people interested in the subject, and I don't think you should be bitching to begin with, either, but you can also realize the same thing.

You clearly can't read, or you can only bleet out the same shit at anyone who visibly dislike "bronies." Whichever, I didn't say it didn't belong here -- it clearly can only exist on this board. I already have the extension.

>>21723797

Look at the way the OP worded it. He made a thread because there wasn't one. What a normal person would do is at least have a topic -- ask some sort of question, post something original -- and allow for a general discussion of the carton beyond that. It's the difference between making a meaningful and purposeful thread and being an annoying fanboy.

>>21723797
>That guy lays it out terribly. His idea is for people to make a Pony thread when they have something specific to talk about -- THAT MEANS FIFTY FUCKING PONY THREADS.
I'm not sure he was saying that so much as that a general thread should start with an actual topic of discussion, rather than being posted out of the obligation for there to be a general thread in existence.

Argument's over bro

We're posting about ponies now

Every time Rarity says this I get excited

I'm surprised this thread hasn't been hijacked by politics/racism yet.

FLUTTERSHY IS MY WAIFU

>>21723889

Yes.. and we're saying that the choices are:

1) Somebody makes an MLP General thread, and all the bronies gravitate there, keeping all their individual discussions to the single thread that exists.

2) Somebody makes a Pony thread with a specific topic. People interested in that topic go there. Everybody else makes their own threads about specific things, leading to dozens of Pony threads.

The issue here is that MLP General threads began to exist because, for now, there will always be people talking about this. You can't avoid it. If there isn't an MLP General created, somebody will create one.

The threads exist in a state of perpetual being-up. People go from the previous thread to the new thread, frequently continuing conversations from the previous to the next. Bronies don't give a shit -- it might as well be one huge thread.

People create a new MLP General as a service to the rest of /co/, because there will not be a point where nobody wants to talk about ponies.

Well thank ya kindly

>>21723865

True as that is, it's not what I'm bitching about.

>>21723834

That's obviously the idea, to keep it confined to one thread. It's not working, though, because these are slow hours and we still had two or three MLP threads on the front page. In addition, this particular thread is irksome because the OP had nothing to talk about besides "I LIKE PONIES."

You say that it continues discussions from the earlier thread, and yet there's nobody discussing anything for the first 25-50 posts in this thread. People just sit in the thread and say random shit about ponies because the thread is here. It's on the front page but there's no discussion. Also, some of your brorses were making threads outside the general anyway, and these aren't even peak hours. Wouldn't be the case. if there were some kind of actual topic.

Look at it this way. The majority of posts in an MLP General thread are irrelevant junk
>There is no general thread. WE NEED ONE.
>YAY MLP GENERAL [picture of happy Twilight Sparkle]
>OMG I screencapped that picture I can't believe someone saved it I'm so happy
>I love that scene so much. Twilight Sparkle is mai pony waifu
>etc etc
And it's all nothing! It's just noise and static that flows along way too fast, and then before you know it, it's time to make another general thread because this one has already been filled with junk.

And yet if there is no general thread, it isn't the sort of useless noise that would be posted in a more specific thread. It just wouldn't be posted at all.

But if OP were to post
>I've been wondering, if a human were to walk into Ponyville, how tall would he be compared to the ponies?
>Oh, and Pony General, since I can't find one
then that thread starts off WITHOUT all the noise and the junkposts. They'll come to the thread eventually sure, but at least the thread has an immediate purpose.

All I'm saying really is that it's okay for there to not be a MLP General thread if nothing worthwhile is gonna happen in it, and it certainly doesn't hurt /co/ if there isn't one for like an hour. Because I'm sure it's seeing the frivolousness of threads that clearly have little discussion happening in them and yet somehow churn away at 70mph that pisses many anons off about MLP, Homestuck, and other shows that are given general threads.

>>21724062
Yeah! Liked it, but not as much as Dragonshy... Still, nice that we got an almost-Rarity episode.

My thinking is that Lauren and co. don't think she can carry an entire episode herself.

I think part of the problem here is that there's a sort of instinctual urge to "be the one" to start a thread, so when people suddenly think it's socially acceptable, they end up posting whatever comes to mind. Same shit that happens when we're five pages into autosage and two or three people blow their load early. Used to be, everyone waited for Page 10, new thread goes up, dupes are deleted, life goes on. Now, it's a free-for-all with everyone trying to be first.

tl;dr I see what you're saying here and it's kind of a valid complaint. But I'm not sure what to *do* about it.

>>21724191
>One does not simply walk into Ponyville.
Of course not. He trots.

>>21724133

the six elements open up a hence-undiscovered Webway gate, allowing the Eldar to come through, and take the ponies with them on one of the Craftworlds, with the Farseer reminding the General in charge of that battlegroup that it's not wise to screw with Eldar that aren't attacking you.

Pinkie is Fluttershy's inspiration

PinkieShy best ship of 2010

pony threads is the only light in the dark abyss I call my life.

I finally watched Dragonshy and I was a bit disappointed that Fluttershy was even worse than useless and then finally proved herself in the most cliche way for the meek one possible. I mean, it was bad enough that oh, the shy one is the scariet when you finally get her mad, SHOCKING. But then it still could have worked if she would have actually fought the dragon a little instead of just getting stern. I didn't really buy that he was more inclined to listen to her than anyone else, regardless of how serious she sounded. If she suddenly went super saiyan (so to speak) upon seeing her friends in trouble, slapped the dragon around a little, then it listened to her, that would have worked for me. As-is he should have just (literally) blew her lecture off too.

I remember a thread where people where suggesting plots based on the title and most of them sounded like a better story than what it ended up being.

>>21724464

>>21724497

Yeah the plot was nothing special

I'm pretty sure Fluttershy has some kind of passive ability that allows her to commune with creatures though. Kind of like Tavros

>>21723611

Read the front page.

Now post the % of threads on front page which are MLP or Homestuck.

>>21724497

Honestly, I think it worked out better for her to just be somewhat shouty and then calmed the fuck down after the initial rage blast. It added to her "Team Mom" concept and had a nice tone of "Dragon, I am disappoint" which worked out better for the tone of the series and Fluttershy in general than just Popeye-ing her way through his face.

I was more annoyed how they sort of shoe-horned her fear of dragons in. Yes, they did try explaining how she can handle big scary things off and how she's fine with Spike, but it seemed to make it come off as just a ridiculously specific phobia. Or a possible freudian excuse.

I'm surprised no bronies decided to write some Grimdark fanfiction based on her having a past with big dragons. I know I've been thinking about it at least.

>>21724617

Man I don't know about you

but I'd be scared of that huge fucking dragon too

>>21724627

But why JUST the huge fucking dragon? Why not the huge fucking Manticore who fucked her friends shit up or the huge fucking Sea Serpent who... Really did nothing, but by god he was a campy serpent?

Move, bitch

get out da way

>>21724560

>See, I was hoping for something like that, something more along the lines of when she dealt with that manticore, not a neutered "beware the nice ones" twist.

Well the manticore was disgruntled because it was injured, so I guess Fluttershy was more understanding to its plight. The dragon on the other hand wasn't hurt, unless you count Rainbow Dash's kick which really didn't do anything. She talked to him like you'd talk to a child throwing a tantrum.

I'm guessing she only brings out that scolding motherly side on animals and outside the norm' creatures. She didn't do anything against Gilda, before or after. So if Trixie came back and kicked Twilight in the face, I really doubt Fluttershy would be on the frontline.

So guys, let me ask you a serious question:
Why is bondage such a prevalent kink in Ponyville.

>>21724639

Because:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pa6WBUOEuc8#t=2m50s

>>21724664

Gilda kind of makes sense since she was a friend of Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy did have the conjoined problem of "Gilda's a giant bitch" and "If I offend Gilda, then there's a chance Dash will be mad at me." Shit, Dash was ready to shank her for being theoretical-pants-pissing terrified of a huge fucking dragon, it's not a totally unfounded fear.

>>21724617
I'm just saying, I could have accepted the dragon listening to her lecture much more readily if her first rage action was to attack the dragon. Not kick his ass or even close, but for her little pony kicks and such, which are really something on a pony scale, to be the equivalent to a "regain your composure" slap to a dragon that huge and get him out of rampage mode. It still works in the Team Mom theme, sometimes moms gotta lay down a little muscle as a last resort to get people to calm down and talk out their problems. And as I said, I really didn't see why a small pony yelling at him not very loudly even registered at that point. To reiterate, I didn't want her to beat him up, just smack him to get him to calm down and pay attention -then- lecture him.

And I agree, the severe dragon-phobia did seem out of place for her. The mountain climbing fear made sense, but creatures great and small are her thing, man.

typical MLP fan

>>21724719

But we saw the equivalent to that. Dash kicked in the face and he laid out a five-course pony-rape buffet, with a chaser of painful asskicking. I'm not sure what she could've done that wouldn't have just riled him up worse, save for maybe some form of magic freeze or perhaps something like throwing a tomato or something soft and squishy at him, rendering with with the shock of "She just threw FRUIT at me and is now shouting at me what the hell?"

>>21724661

Oh lordy, Spike's face.

>>21724719
Hey man, some dudes will kick a tiger in the dick and still scream like a girl if a grand daddy long legs gets on them.

>>21723708
And later man, I still haven't slept yet.

>>21724688
because ponies and horses are trained to wear leather straps everywhere and getting their skin burned and theit fingers nailed and incased in metal.

>>21724714
Not standing up to Gilda or Trixie made sense to me because that's how shy people are. Way more scared of their peers than animals or most any things that aren't capable of judging, snubbing, etc. Animals are safe in that regard.

>>21724756
>fingers nailed and pierced with metal

Actually the analogy is closer to getting your hair or your fingernails pierced.

Since hooves are made of the same stuff. There's no nerve tissue or blood flow there. It's like the same reason why it doesn't hurt to get a haircut or your nails trimmed.

>>21724756
So your saying they miss humans and being in bondage to them.
I see.
A shame Celestia had them exterminated then.

>>21724771
>Your
Ach, I need sleep.
YOU'RE

>>21724719

>the severe dragon-phobia did seem out of place for her. The mountain climbing fear made sense, but creatures great and small are her thing, man.

Well I don't know, if Fluttershy was to be afraid of anything, I'd understand it would be a dragon. Dragons are the quintessential tyrants of mythological folklore.

>>21724781
I'm surprised she wasn't scared of the manticore.

Hey is there some mp3 download for winter wrap up?

>>21724758

>Implying Angel doesn't judge the fuck out of everybody.

(Why the fuck don't I have a pic of Angel in my MLP folder jesus christ)

>>21724799

>>21724743
Dash just kicked him enough to annoy him. I'm saying Fluttershy should have opened a giant can of pony whoop-ass which scaled up to a giant dragon, was merely enough to interrupt rampage time and get his attention so that the guilt trip would be effective.

Like, I remember this time a bird was dive-bombing me and I was just getting annoyed. Then it finally hit me much harder by bird standards and that beak or claws or whatever hurt, which got me off of being annoyed and made me wonder what that bird was so riled up about. Soon I realized the problem was that I was standing really close to its nest, so I left. It was just defending its family, and I'm no jerk. So in the end, only stepping up the attacks got my attention enough to solve the real problem peacefully.

>>21724792

>DOUBLE GAME OVER

That makes me think of that glitch in Super Mario Brothers where you can die twice if you go off a cliff, then something else kills you on top of it, like a hammer following you down.

This is why the world could never be as pure and innocent as Equestria

you can feel bad now

I'm probably gonna repost this another time in a more active thread, but I'm just gonna throw this theory I came up with out there.

So. I noticed something in watching MLP. In no episodes, NO episodes, ANY mention is made of any parents to the ponies. I found this intriguing, but didn't think anything of it until just recently. I don't think that ponies reproduce sexually. My theory is that the pony reproductive system is similar to that of the Orks (http://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Ork_Physiology). This would explain the lack of any parental figures anywhere in MLP, as well as the almost unanimous female gender present (males being an anomaly in the genetic code). The most obvious counter to this is that Applejack is seen in the first episode to have an extended family. However, I believe that they have no blood relation, and instead likely grew up together (farm communities are relatively close-knit), becoming as close to a "family" as is possible in Equestria.

I think you underestimate my capability to be completely an upstanding nice-guy boy scout in all regards aside from my omni-horniness. Skip through a sunny meadow and pick flowers to make pretty wreaths? Hardcore sex orgy? I'm equally up for both.

I'm kinda like Brock from Pokemon in that regard.

>>21725061

>no blood relatives
>Applejack and Pinkie both stated to have Grandmas
>indicates that parentage exists

I think what is likely to happen is.. somewhere down the line (another season) we'll gradually meet the parents (maybe we'll even get some throwaway 'circle of trust' joke or something)

So that's something we can discuss... what would our favourite ponies' parents be like?

except Pinkie... because well.. yknow

>>21725108

Twilight Sparkles parents are probably emotionally distant. Considering how daft she is with social contact, it wouldn't surprise me if they pushed her in scholarly pursuits while ignoring friendship.

She probably only got that Cutie Mark after meeting Spike and taking care of him for a long time, if they appear in the same way as the game postulates.

long ago, before the descent of the heavenly prophets known as Celestia and Luna. the land of equestria was in turmoil by the three major factions of the time: the pegasi tribe, the unicorn guild and the earth pony allience fought in a bid for dominance...

>>21725061
You got it all wrong.

Think about it, ponies aren't born, they just appear suddenly, with a preset age. They don't get old, or young, or anything actually. They are just there, like eternal creatures just walking around.

When I think about it, and the way Celestia refers to the other ponies, that the ponies themselves are constructs of Celestia's own imagination. She was so bored being an all-mighty goddes (but not omniscent, that is very important) that she decided to create ponies out of magic and illusion (and friendship), and when she feels like it, she will make a new pony appear.

>>21725174
That would explain the chicken-or-egg conundrum regarding the cutie marks.

>>21725174
Or disappear

>>21725128
>Implying Celestia didn't derp Twilight's in order to raise her to be her new host

>>21725174
They've shown some younger ponies in the background, and the Mayor appeared older.

>>21725202
"Derp Twilight's parents", I meant

>>21725205
Preset age. Sometimes Celestia likes to make babies, sometimes Celestia likes to make old folks.

Unless ponies can change their name when they feel like it, that would explain Granny Smith's name.

Live action My Little Pony movie trailer:

>>21725202

Somehow it seems more... Unfortunate, I guess, if they're not only aware of the plan but are completely okay with it. They're the worst of Stage Moms combined with the stereotypical elitist intellectual parents: they know Celestia's eventually going to take Twilight Sparkles' body and powers. It's been foretold in the mother pony's line in generations. And they're pleased as punch.

After all, isn't it the best for their daughter to be the new Queen of Equestria, even if her mind's not involved? All of their hard work, focusing her on her studies, making sure she worked hard and practiced her magic. She edged out all of her cousins and sisters, you know. And when Celestia eventually destroys Twilight's mind and take her over, it will be their daughter as they know her ruling the nation: a powerful and beautiful unicorn, such a talented girl.

Twilight is so tsun-tsun for Spike :3

>>21725228
>mfw "giddy-up"

>>21725249
Eh, not really.

Rarity is tsun-tsun for Applejack and viceversa

1. Ponies are born normally and age, there are baby ponies and older ponies and Fluttershy specifically mentions being older than pinkie pie by a "year"
2. Some ponies have cutie marks while others dont. According to the game on the website you have to earn your cutie mark. So the Nurse Pony with the red cross cutie mark didnt get born with it, she worked hard and probably passed a course in nursing before she was allowed to wear one. That is why cutie marks tend to reflect on a pony's personality, because they specifically chose the cutie mark to go with what they like to do.

>>21725243
I like you, Anon. Your mind is just as twisted as my own.

I consider you an honorary friend of Agent X.

If she were allowed to have any interaction with you and not kill you, of course.

So, I finally gave in and watched the first episode of mlp, and it was not that bad actually. It had some humorous jokes, decent story for a show for kids, and pretty good animation.
But it was mostly cute girly stuff, as I figured it would be.

It was not good enough for me to continue watching, but I don't see any thing wrong with liking it, even as a 24 year old male.

But the obsession /co/ has about mlp is definitely not deserved.
I am now convinced that the vast majority of mlp fans are the ones that watch it for fap material.

>>21725293

Aw, thanks Cheddah.

I've also got one for Fluttershy's family too. And it doesn't involve child abuse, that's just a little too expected you know?

>>21725313
We would have preferred you watched the third episode instead, but I'm glad that you gave it a shot.

>>21725278
You want realistic theory time, okay:

Twilight Sparkle was born with her cutie mark, unlike every other pony in the show. Of course, she doesn't know anything about getting one's cutie mark.

>>21725278
>you can't actually prove #1.

"Yer a wizzard, Twilight"

>>21725313
Have you watched any other episodes?

My opinion, the first two episodes are the weakest. After that they get much better.

But if you don't like it as much as the rest of us do, that's understandable.

Still, some of us really like the show a lot.

Suddenly this is a Spike Thread!

>>21725348
>Spikers gonna Spike

>>21725341
I dunno, I thought episode 1 was good, but yeah, episode 2 sucked due to the FRIENDSHIP conclusion. So sick of that power of friendship thing.

>>21725378
Better leace /co/ then.
There's nothing else for you here.
Have a good journey.

>>21725378
I liked EP 1 cause Twilight was so off about the thought of friendship. Something I don't think has been seen in MLP. An anti social pony? PLus how she was just naturally irritated by the main characters. It was just a realistic response.

When it turned dark, i was like NO WAY IS THIS GONNA LAST. I'm not mad that it didn't, I just wish it would have lasted longer.

>>21725348
Hell yes Spike thread

>>21725371
Ride that pony, Spike.

>>21725334

It was a surprisingly happy and stable family, and she was such a happy little filly too, you know? Confident little thing too, not nearly as daring as the other pegasii, but she would always go along with her mother on her zoology expeditions outside of the village and meet creatures great and small. But she was always an obedient girl too, otherwise her mother wouldn't take her along in the future.

And when they ended up meeting up with a massive dark purple dragon, she was very exciting to meet up with a new creature. After all, she always did find dragons so interesting, especially baby dragons. So when she was shoved into a small cave by her mother and told to stay silent no matter what, she was disheartened but still did as she told.

And when the dragon began to spew fire, she still stayed silent, watching the shadows as the small edges of the forest burned. And when the dragon started to claw at her mother, smashing her around like a toy, she still obeyed her mother, silent from the terror of what she was seeing occur. And when the dragon proceeded to devour her mother in one bite, she only watched the shadows, quiet as a rabbit in the field.

She wasn't found until three days later, when her father finally convinced the local sheriff to look up in the woods for them. She never did become as confident as she was as a filly, but she was still a very good girl, always obedient and always kind and loving.

But she still feared shadows.

>>21725396
we still don't have any details about the season finale, could be a return of NMM.

>>21725371
Awesome, thank you!

Spike reminds me of an Orangutan I saw at the zoo that was fucking a sleeping female, and he was looking at us through the glass all "Yeah. Deal with it".

>>21725174
In the old MLP two ponies had to stand in front of a magic mirror and wish for a pony. Then the young pony would appear in front of them.

>>21725460
Lol lesbians.

>>21725439
I know. I'm only speaking in terms of what has already been seen. But I hope...and how I wish.

>>21725396
Exactly. Annoyed Twilight who was capable of socializing, just had other things on her mind such as saving the world was waaaayyyy more likable than "Friendship, and ONLY Friendship solves everything ever" Twilight. It was like for once, a cartoon was acknowledging there's a valid grey area between total recluse and FRIENDS ARE THE BEST THING EVER ALL THE TIME YAY.

>>21725469

And really, who wants to be friends with those ponies in Canterlot. She doesn't want to go to a party so they start talking shit behind her back. Bitches.

>>21725465
Love comes in many forms, even grown men X Pony waifu.

>>21725410
Fucking awesome.

E-mail me, brony. This is the start of a beautiful friendship.

CheddahSlingah@yahoo.com

>>21725469
Episode 1 Twilight: I can make friends later, right now I gotta stop the Apocalypse. Seriously, no offense people, but quit distracting me. ETERNAL NIGHT. MUST STOP.

Episode 2 Twilight: I can accomplish nothing without Friendship and was wrong to ever even question it. Now later episodes will show me as a total social retard for my blasphemy.

Yeah, things went downhill episode 2.

>>21724995
Twilight is clearly a fan of http://bad-dragon.com/

>>21725578
I wish I'd never seen that site...

So someone told me this show is actually about grimdark ponies who wiped out mankind. Is this true?

>>21725604
No.

>>21725578

>>21725604
Well, my personal theory (As you'll find in The Reports of Agent X) is that Celestia is actually an evil despot, holding as much love in her heart for her subjects as one does for an ant. She is preparing Twilight Sparkle to become her soul's next vessel for another 1000-year reign.

How's that for you? There's more where that came from...

>>21725632
It's both relevant and traumatic

>>21725640

>>21723260
Dearest Princess Celestia.

Today I learned that good things come to those who wait. In an online image board, sometimes it's better to wait for a new thread instead of starting one yourself, especially if you don't have anything interesting to share. In the end, patience is key, because starting too many same threads at once makes people rage and gets people trolled.

Your faithful student,

Twilight Sparkle.

>>21725604

It's a show about the Equiforms of the planet Equestria. Also known as the most dangerous creatures in the universe.

They're immortal.
They can control the weather.
They can bend the laws of the universe to their will.

They make the Daleks look like Weebles in comparison. The last time I faced them I was extremely luck to escape in one piece. They can kill a Time Lord and prevent him from regenerating, then destroy his TARDIS for shits and giggles. It was them that killed everyone in the Time War, not me.

>>21725657
Good writing, bro. Also, Celestia's face when she reads it.

>>21725604
It's all established through interpretation.

People who want cute get what they want.
People who want grimdark make the theories off character personalities and hypothetical counterfactual histories.
People who want a bit of comedy get what they want.
People who want deep analogies that reveal dark sentiments of the cast dig through theory and fiction to create it.

I enjoy both.

It's always competitive when you're a pegasus.

You're tasked with controlling the weather. Got to go faster, got to fit to the schedule Celestia sets. There's no second chance when something goes wrong. You're supposed to do your job, and do it as fast as you can. If not, there's always another competitor, waiting in the wings.

Especially gifted are the speedsters; the fast fliers, looking to be the best. They're selected young; each one of them is a member of a fine pedigree, sent to the Camps to breed loyalty to Celestia. She lets a few of the 'lesser races' attend, as well; might as well let them know what they're facing. Fear is her favorite tool, and she's certainly cowed the griffins with the threat of the Wonderbolts showing up and reminding them why they pay tribute to her.

After they slow down, there's only one option; start breeding the future generations. There always need to be more speedsters, ready to enforce Celestia's iron will.

She was brought up knowing this. Her parents, world-class speedsters, let her know that she'd be carrying on the line, then marrying the best to uphold Celestia's will. She didn't want to do this; stuck in a loveless marriage like her parents, forced to breed children and feeding them into the machine. But she knows that she needs to hide her true feelings; Celestia must know, but she won't care so long as she's the best.

After all, a little deviancy is always accepted when you're the best.

>>21725657
To my dearest faithful student Twilight Sparkle,

Tl;dr.

>>21725721
CELESTIAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!

>>21725694
>>21725721
Troll Celestia is officially my favorite Celestia.
Requesting Celestia Homestuck troll.

I think one of the things I love most about this show is the fans behind it. I love reading all the grimdark back-story shit we come up with and I enjoy watching the light-hearted comedy of the show itself.

But most of all, I love watching an episode with my fellow bronies and laughing my ass off at reaction faces or stupid commentary. I love the gifs, the screencaps, the high-res walls.

This show is fucking awesome, the people who watch it and contribute good stuff to it are fucking awesome. Friendship is magic is fucking awesome.

>>21725752

In the MLP world.

What is a nigger?

>>21725785
Chocolate horse. Some stay dry and others feel the pain

>>21725766
Thats the only reason I come to these threads to be honest. The art, the theorizing, and even to see trolling. I've seen all the episodes but I haven't watched any of them more then once. I'm just in between a fan and obssesed with.

>>21725785

Zebras

>>21725792

damn it i lol'd

>>21725716

Aw, poor Rainbow Dash. At least she has further fuel for her dreams and for her desire for candy vag with a nice pony in the future.

I love this, already we have established Twilight Sparkle's parents are willingly tossing her to Celestia's manipulations for fame and prestige, Fluttershy's mom is DEAAAAD by dragon, and Rainbow Dash is striving for leadership in the Wonderbolts so Celestia won't force her into the closet and the breeding machine. And with Pinkie Pie's orphaning, it makes Applejack and Rarity the only mentally not-fucked ponies.

>>21725785
>Nigger

Duh, that's spelled wrong.

In Equestria, niger is a word taken from some dead human language that means black.

>>21723260
Dearest princess Celestia.

Do a barrel roll.

Gotcha.

- Dash.

>>21725657
Could someone cap this, please?

>>21725785
Hell. It might be a zebra. We'll find out soon enough.

>>21725834

The Lost Chapter of Celestia's Rise to Power

...The Zebra Wars

FRIDGE LOGIC INCOMING

The defining trait of Fluttershy's personality is she's shy around people but good with animals.

But the people are all animals, and the animals are all people. The distinction between the two is completely arbitrary, because everything can talk.

Yes, even the rabbits most likely.

>>21725815
Never thought I'd be able to post this again...

>>21725834
Oh, it's definitely a zebra.

Obviously zebras would be black people, because it's an African animal.

>>21725856

She's like a teacher who's very good with children but is awkward around adult. Only without the implied pedophilia, before anyone comments.

>>21725867
Christ Cheddah...

>>21723260
Right, 'cuz Fluttershy's a beasty chick.

She has an inappropriate relationship with that damn rabbit.

>>21725867

i lol'd so hard. that was fantastic

fuckin saved

>>21725867
Fuck, meant to post the macro...

>>21725856
The keyword here is wild.

She has a way with wild animals.
The not-so wild intimidate her.

>>21725920
Except dragons, she has a little problem working with them.

>>21725928

But she's perfectly fine with BABY dragons. Baby dragons are fucking awesome.

Big dragons are as horrifying as goddamn shadows.

>>21723260
Does anyone know what style of hat Applejack wears? I think I've seen a brim like that before but I'll be damned if I remember what it's called.

>>21725942

where the hell is the gif of her actually being scared by her shadow?!

DAMN IT, PARKER!

>>21725942
Oh god what if Baby Dragons are their own breed of dragon?

>talking to dad yesterday
>me: got little sister to watch mlp...speaking of mlp, i think I might be coming down with something
>dad: what does that have to do with MLP
>me: my voice has been getting a little horse

DOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHO!!!!!!!!!!

Hey /co/ look what I made last night!

I'm still having trouble with Pinkie Pie's cutie mark, because the balloon ribbons are so thin that they don't show up, and hers looks like a weird blob. I already had to redo Fluttershy's and saturate the colors more, because they were so pale. But I can't seem to get Pinkie's to look good. Argh.

>>21725966

>>21725966

So they're the yippy little dogs of the Dragon line?

Jesus, no wonder why Celestia basically keeps one as a pet/minion and hoisted him onto Twilight.

>>21725953

>>21725985
I would so buy a Rainbow Dash pendant! These are very cute!

Two days till the next rip.

Also...

VOTE FOR A PONY CHRISTMAS:

http://www.hubworld.com/naughty-or-nice

You can and should vote for Nightmare Moon, Fluttershy, and Twilight Sparkle. If you are not so nice vote "1" to anypony you don't like.

Currently, you have Nightmare Moon losing to something called "Shadow Lord" from something called "Deltora Quest". UNACCEPTABLE.

If ponies win, you will see a marathon on the Hub Christmas day. This will be streamed for any who cannot watch the hub; it will also demonstrate ponys are popular.

Third class citizens.

That's all they were.

No magical powers, no weather control, nothing more than the sweat of their brows and the harsh taxes levied by the state. Protection from invasion, payments to the weather teams to keep little 'problems' from happening, and the right of all Earth Ponies to have their males drafted for military and stud service by Celestia.

Sometimes, the family farm is the only thing that keeps people going. Granny went off to Canterlot when she was a filly; after a few years of learning how the unicorns enjoyed slumming with their 'backwoods cousins' left a taste in her mouth as sour as her namesake. After one too many wouldn't take 'no' for an answer, she finally left, deported for even trying to press charges against her betters.

She raised her family with these stories; how trusting the unicorns was a mistake. How the farm always needed to keep going. There were members of the family all over, so it's not too hard to keep in touch. A revolution starts from the ground up, so they say.

She's most proud of her granddaughter. She's the strongest and most charismatic girl born to the line in years. A fine leader for the eventual rebellion. She's always listened well to Granny's stories of Canterlot, too; she knows you can't trust a unicorn.

>>21725995
Exactly. Basically specially bred dragons used only for sending scrolls.

>>21726004

a fellow brony delivers. All is well.

god i can't wait for when this shit is forgotten

>>21723260
What shit is 'this shit'?

If you mean My Little Pony, we're only 6 episodes into 12 episodes of season 1 so don't hold your breath lawl.

>>21726019
These are awesome! Please post more.

>>21726051
Did you just sage a thread one post from auto-sage?

That seems somewhat anti-climactic.

Good job for the bronies posting these insane grimdark stories about pony origins. Truly entertaining to see what people are up to.

See this here, /co/mrades? It's the F-22 Raptor Rainbow Dash Custom. And I'm about to stream her maiden flight.

www.livestream.com/judgementtime

The question is: will you accompany her as she Goes Fly With The Angels, /co/?

>>21725657
Fuck it, made it myself.

>>21726123

And another.

Taking screenshots of HAWX is hard as hell, so only two.

>>21726091
Eh, other folks have already done all the ponies except Rarity, and I don't really have too much to write about her. I mean, seriously, how do you make that dark?

I mean, theoretically, we could make the OCD stem from some childhood trauma. Perhaps the child of poor unicorns, forever dreaming of wearing beautiful clothes. This explains both her generosity and her obsession with looking neat and clean.

....shit, well, there's an idea.

>>21726105
Just wait until you fins out who Agent X is.

It's so deliciously absurd, I can't wait to see everypony's reactions.

>>21723260
Omg epic work dude, Dash jet!

>>21726140
My dear student Twilight,

tr01l3d h@rd, b!tch

>>21726152
Big Mac?

There is very little a young filly with a strong vagary born to a broken grave can do to avoid such a hill of tribulation. When her mother gave birth to this soul, she gave her own life simply to breathe a farewell to her loyal husband. Taking her life to give renewal to another, many would see as a symbolic of ultimate sacrifice. However the stallion, moored to the fallacy of 'death do us part' could not fathom raising a child in solitude; though his body still inhaled and the blood within his veins circled on there was no doubt the pony died that day.

Luckily, the mother of this fallen stallion was not so blinded by the death of her daughter. While troubled greatly by her loss, she took the foal in her own care. The child grew well despite her financial difficulties, sporting a smile that seldom vanished and a personality that shown both in eccentricity and merriment.

'Til the day she lead her up to the small, rolling knoll that her parents graves inhabited in fall. 'Til the day she spoke truth of her past and revealed the case of not being her mother.

Her smile broke that day. Not physically; it remained as strong, bold and convivial as ever. But paired with two eyes that streamed with tears could never hide a masque, no matter how strong.

Her smile has been hollow since.

>>21726144
>>21726144
Yes, there is plenty of material for Rarity. Why does she want to join nobility so bad? Why does she want to do so through fashion? Do these two have something that Rarity feels she lacks right now?

>>21726300
Stooooop! I have to goooooo! ;_;

>>21726300
Mixed up the grandparents. My bad.

Look at what I made out of sheer boredom!

Stages of the MLP Rainbow.
I wanted to get some opinons about it and ask if it seems accurate.

I'm an Applejack btw.

>>21723260
Has anypony set up Derpy for flash?

I'm thinking a Derpy walk/stumble cycle to Chacarron Macarron on Youtube. Make it happen, bronies.

So if Derpy's Cutie Mark is alcoholic bubbles, why is everybody drawing her delivering mail?

>>21726358
Missing Spike, which is the quintessential /co feeling.

"It's boring, and it's for girls, but I'm excited everytime a new chapter airs"

>>21726379
its been done SOOOO long ago
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=R7GOLKLY

>>21726403
Got it! But which two would that one be in between? Unless Spike is his own stage on his own board.

>>21726358
Looks good. The only phase missing at all is the "I will give it a shot, just to say I tried it" phase. That phase may be the most neutral phase of all.

>>21726400

You can have a boozy mail-lady.

Alternately, it's water and meant to reference "Water on the brain"

Here's the Grim Pony Origins so far, all in a handy .png.

>>21726421
Rarity and Fluttershy, me thinks.

>>21726358

oh god I'm a Pinkie Pie

and I don't care who knows

>>21723260
Somepony's gotta get on this. I know some of you are animators.

Please bring Derpy to life! everypony loves Derpy.

I defy you to deny Derpy love.

>>21726439
Those are great. I still eagerly await Rarity's story. Perhaps she is a fallen noble trying desperately to regain her title?

>>21726477
Or she will be Ezio.

>>21726485

Spike's entire roll is to keep all of these bitches sane and hopefully overcome there issues and strive for greatness and against the machine and Celestia.

After all, they're making so much progress. Fluttershy went face-to-face with an adult dragon and forced him away from her friends. And Applejack accepted Twilight's help with the harvest as well as her friendship, even if she's still distrustful of Rarity and outright disdainful of outside unicorns.

Surely, there must be some progress in there? They can hold onto this little ray of power each was blessed with?

>>21723260
Dearest princess celestia.

Today I learned to not take alcohol away from Derpy, because she gets angry and suicidal without it.

Your faithful student, Twilight sparkle.

>>21726439
You're awesome! Just letting you know!

(Rarity story; the best I could come up with)

Inside every little filly is a princess.

Sometimes, that princess is imprisoned. When bad ponies decide to take her only kingdom, steal her jewels and clothing, and force her into a kind of shameful servitude. She would stay quiet, and be neat. She has to be the neatest, or they would take her away more of her kingdom.

Cosmetics could hide the damages. Fine clothing could rebuild her walls, covering the shame of what she was forced in to. Her father was poor, her mother living in her own world, and so she was forced to suffer these commoners alone. She knew that talking would make things worse, so she learned how to hide things.

She's gotten good at hiding things over the years. Always scrubbing, always keeping things neat and prim. After all, beauty on the outside hides the ugliness on the inside. The ugliness of what she had to do.

She's a princess. She'll marry a prince one day. And he'll make those bad men who force her to scrub and clean to go away. They're just memories now, but she can still remember the bruises and the dirt.

Princesses deserve a happy ending.

>>21726587

Dearest Twilight,

Please send all confiscated alcoholic drinks directly to my private quarters.

Princess Celestia

>>21726485

You said this just as the "Ezio's Family" track started playing on my iTunes playlist.

>>21723260
i'm assuming 'scrub and clean' are euphemisms for rough sex.which

>>21726610
I almost feel bad for writing this, but it needed to be done.

Now, you have to feel bad about every pony.

The creation of a horribly dark version of the MLP universe is coming slowly and steadily.

Also, calling it right now that Agent X is Spike, because it's obvious.

Now, if anyone wants, I can try writing more horrifying things.

>>21726610
That's it... Next report, this is going in.

>>21726439

These are fucking horrible stories to read, Jesus Christ...

>>21726725
And no, Agent X is NOT Spike. You will NEVER guess. NEVER.

And if you do, I'll deny it. Even if you guess her form, there are farmore secrets left to discover...

>>21723260
Maybe we should lighten it up a bit...what if this stuff starts popping up in parents websearches, top execs decide the series has become too tainted, and they cancel it after one season?

Also, friendship and rainbows, bronies.

Full version of these horrible, horrible origins written; if the other anons who wrote the ones for Twilight Sparkle, Fluttershy, and Pinkie Pie would let me know. I've only done Rarity, Rainbow Dash, and Applejack.

>>21726725

Same here. I even have some wonderful ideas involving what happens with the unicorns that Celestia deems too... Dangerous for her rule.

And at least it gives her blessed little sister company, you know? At least she's not alone anymore.

>>21723260
I think I was happier reading 34.

>>21726761
I am a terrible person, and accept the repercussions of these things.

Though yes, I should theoretically write some happy stuff to counterbalance this. I can already see how Rainbow Dash grew up the child of a single mother, eager to please and proud of the times that she's going fast. Pinkie Pie, upon seeing sadness, just needs to bring a smile, in memory of her grandmother. Rarity, from growing up poor, learned how to make dresses to make sure no one else needed to feel like she did. Applejack, proudly supporting the high-flying ambitions of the other ponies by being a rock and proud of the farm. And Fluttershy, living with parents who taught her how quiet lets you grow closer to the animals of the world.

>>21723260
I can see what's happening here. This dark shit is going to pick up momentum and we're going to end up with super depressing pony snuff/torture/rape fics.

>>21726766

Fuck, I hate namefagging, but it'll help keep me straight in this thread.

Anyway, that's why I think we should have Spike relatively normal and happy, looking out for the best interests of the ponies. Hell, he may be slightly aware of what's happening with Twilight, but more in a sense of "Twilight's folks are jerks and treat her like wallet" than in a "Twilight's folks plan to sacrifice her very soul and mind for the sake of some attention." sense.

>>21726610
That was far and beyond what I had expected from a grimdark nobility story. Well done.

>>21726826
>Implying Spike isn't the secret son of the Wyvern King Savage and his dragon concubine, spirited away as an egg and the cause of Wyvern War II

>>21726767
I read these while listening to this.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UFRvrlqYMIY
It was not a good idea...
>mfw

Also, that Rarity one was great. This coming from the guy who wrote the Rarity sadfrog from before. You could do a couple of those yourself, I'd bet.

>>21726824
Eh, I just think it's entertaining to see how you could interpret things in an incredibly over-the-top fashion. I would be sad if people took these as the inspiration for more horrific tales. It's fun to write them in short form, because you're exploring an idea that looks like it can fit with one particularly demented interpretation of the world, and you have a limited space to do it. Anything longer is just a horrifying trip.

Besides, it's a bright series, and I've gotta give the haters something to make fun of.

That nobility story can explain Rarity aloofness while cleaning.


So...what meta-references were there from episode 8? 7 for example had the A-Team among others. But what did 8 have?

>>21726875

Might as well go the whole nine yards.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_5_iJGjV8bc

>>21726910

I just think of it as a fun writing exercise and something that, if meant for a long run, would be better as a set-up for a "KICK THE FUCKERS TO THE GROUND AND AIM FOR THE STARS BECAUSE BABY WE MAY BE FUCKED BUT WE'LL DO OUR BEST"-type story instead of a "And then Pinkie Pie was Shinji"-type.

>>21725953
Where is the GIF of Twilight clapping, or Dash kicking the dragon in the face?

Man I could use some of this If I ever get around to making that crossover comic.

Not today.

Of all the days for a maelstrom to push through the careful watching of the Weather Pegasi, it had to be today. He had a wife back home, and a daughter on the way. He was looking forward to teaching her how to fly, showing her the sublime joy of guiding the clouds around and making a beautiful sunny day. But here was a storm that might upset all that; there wouldn't be a house left standing if he couldn't stop it.

He pushed himself harder. This was a priority. He was the fastest, so naturally, he had to head up the charge. His companions were far behind, miles back and unlikely to catch up. The winds were almost too strong to fly, the rain blinding him, but he knew what he had to do. If he failed, he might not have a wife and daughter to come home to.

The winds were relentless. Static was beginning to spark off his coat. His shoes, the prize from the yearly speedster competition, were starting to glow red with the stored charge. He continued charging through the skies, kicking apart the clouds despite the downpour.
–----------------------------------------------------
Hours later, he was found by the scouting party. No other Pegasii came to the storm. He had beaten it before it reached town, but it had taken it all out of him.

He hadn't made it back to see his daughter, born while he fought the storm. All that was left was the beautiful rainbow from the storm he fought alone. For her.

>>21723260

Pinkie Pie, subdued for once, sat at a table in the town square with a gloomy expression on her face. Her forehead thumped on the table, and she covered her head with her hooves. "Too much..." she mumbled. "It's just TOO MUCH."

Meanwhile Rarity stood on her studio balcony with her head hung low, staring at the floor and thinking. She sighed. She raised her head and looked up at the cloud-scudded sky, and murmered, "So empty inside. Empty."

Rarity decided she needed to get out for a while and clear her head. She left her studio, and wandered aimlessly. Fog had begun to roll in, bringing an ethereal broodiness to the already dreary weather. As Rarity approached the town square, she did not see the mist-shrouded figures gathering behind her like a dark storm on the horizon.

Rarity found Pinkie Pie sitting alone at her table. Perhaps Rarity just needed to talk to somebody and take her mind off of her problems.

"Hi, Pinkie Pie," she said and smiled. The smile was warm and sincere, as it was intended to be. Pinkie raised her head, gazing up at rarity. "Oh, hai..."

Rarity could plainly see that Pinkie Pie was not herself today. Pinkie Pie did not share Rarity's ability to push her thoughts to the back of her mind and feign cheer. The dark figures entered the increasingly foggy town center, looming closer.

>>21723260

Rarity sat down beside Pinkie Pie. "Pinkie, something's bothering you... I need you to keep your mind on the game. we have a lot ot do... tell me what's wrong." "Oh..." Pinky replied, "It's just too much... I've baked far TOO MUCH delectable sweets and goodies for your big fashion show! I knew I had to make a lot but i accidentally overestimated the guest attendance and then I doubled it by accident and then I noticed and went *gasp* but it was too late and the shop was already overflowing with food!" Pinkie had become very animated and was going into contortions, bouncing and explaining the situation. she suddenly noticed that Rarity's expression had gone blank. "You don't look so cheery yourself rarity..." said Pinkie Pie. "Are you okay?"

Rarity snapped out of it, looked across at Pinkie Pie and said "Actually, I accidentally booked TWO venues for my showing. I was certain I'd cancelled one, but now I have two booked, but now one is going to go to waste, empty. I don't know what to do."

"Hey I know!" said Pinkie Pie. "I have extra cakes and goodies, and you have an extra place. Let's combine the two and throw a SUPER GREAT PARTY for our friends!"

Tcuoked karbhe figures emerged from the fog, where they had been chatting amongst themselves. Rarity and Pinkie Pie looked at the crowd and the crowd looked back... not strangers, but all their good friends!

That night they had a super great party and everybody had a wonderful time. Rarity's fashion exposition was a HUGE success and all of her fashions at the show became a super hit in Canterlot. Everything was happiness and rainbows and everybody lived happily ever until the next fic.

GRIMDARK!

Also holy shit some of the people in this thread are crazy with the darkness. It's a show about ponies, dudes. Light and happy ponies.

That's why mine had a light and happy ending! \o/

I went from being a Gilda to being a Pinkie Pie in about two weeks.

Aghhh, that single track alone is horrifically sad.

I have no appropriate MLP reaction image for this, so this will have to do.

At first my fic was like:

I really wanted something less depressing to write. Plus micro-fiction is fun.

Also, I figure Dash needed some hilarious epic backstory or something.

Plus, listening to all these G Gundam songs really got me full of a desire to write something less grimdark. Depressing, yet slightly hopeful.

I...I don't like this grimdark fic

MLP is a happy thing, please don't make me depressed whenever I think of it.

we need more batpink fiction

Everybody should have some friendship sparkles. :D

Derp!

Well, you did an awesome job. Got to me unlike any of the GRIMDARK stuff.

>>21727635
There's an awesome way to not be bothered by things you don't like, and that's to not read them. Don't like the grimdark, don't read the grimdark, and everybody who does like it still gets to read it.

Everybody is a winner, unless skipping over a few posts is too great a hassle for you, in which case, you're probably destined to be a loser forever.

And enjoy some fluttershy.

My Little Pony FIM doesn't give me the dark drearies.

It gives me the warm fuzzies, that's why I like it.

>>21726019

wait wait wait.. these are still supposed to include the series as the canon they take place in only with really really grimdark undertones and backstory + Celesta being secretly evil right?

then if Applejack knows not to trust Unicorns why does she hang out with two of them all the time.
