Random Comedy Fimfic Ideas Brainstorm · 1:51am Aug 28th, 2017
Here I go. Some of these have been floating around for a while and some are coming off the top of my head right now. All ideas are very flexible and kind of 'whatever'.
- The Cutie Map is broken and starts sending ponies on missions to deliver packages for the mail instead (The Mane Six would start going on missions to fix friendship problems and think they're doing good until they slowly start catching on its all just about delivering stuff)
- The entirety of Ponyville and its inhabitants gets shrunk except for Fluttershy (Big horse, smallish demeanor. Irony is always funny)
- Cheerilee needs a substitute teacher and Twilight fills the role, but the current topic is the birds and the bees. (Would be funny but risque)
- Celestia takes on a new student: Trixie. Twilight is disturbed at how well she is doing, but it turns out she just took magician lessons and got really good at faking stuff. (Could be fun)
- Discord starts messing with the mail for fun, but gets himself in trouble when the messages he re-routes start causing odd things to happen throughout Equestria. (Potential for being funny. Dunno how things would escalate quite yet)
- Applejack breaks her hoof and can't buck apples for awhile, but that doesn't stop her from using her head to get the job done. Literally. (This one could be sorta funny)
- Fluttershy is having her cottage renovated and needs some place to stay, so Rainbow Dash offers up her home. The problem is that Fluttershy isn't used to cloud dwelling for extended periods. (Eh, that's not really funny)
- Rarity needs two ponies to be a model for her newest fashion line, but nobody is available except Rainbow Dash and Applejack. (This might be funny? The problem of escalation eludes me again though)
- Derpy gets her eyes fixed and can suddenly fly much faster. Faster than Rainbow Dash. (This one just came out of thin air. Dunno)
- Pinkie Pie eats so much sugar that time stops. The story would progress with her having fun to start, growing bored and making ponies act out stuff, then growing concerned when she can't get time to start again. The climax would be that she actually keeled over and went into a sugar coma and time didn't actually stop. (Another one out of thin air. I'm just typing stuff as it comes out...)
I want to keep going but I feel like this is devolving into "Character X does blah and blah happens". Brainstorm over. Hope you were entertained.
Out of all of these, I kinda wanna write the "Applejack rams her head into trees" story the most . Let me know what you think about any of them.
PonyThunder, nice ideas. Were these ideas you were considering for your next story or can anypony uses these ideas?
Also, I got some ideas for you.
PLEASE message me back
Especially the second.
Though a fic where Rarity has to do something for Dash and AJ WOULD really appeal to me.

I'm just throwing them out there. Truthfully I'd rather not have someone else use them, but that's the risk I'm taking in brainstorming on a public blog. It's not like certain stories haven't been overdone dozens of times on this site anyways though. If I want to write one I'll probably write it anyways. If anybody calls me out, I'll point to this blog post. Feel free to PM me ideas if you want.

Hmm...what would Rarity do for them? I guess AJ could use a farmhand (er, farmhoof?), and for some reason only she can do it. Seems a little dry. I dunno what RD would want with her. Those two ideas were definitely pretty meh. That AJ story about ramming trees with her head (that one came out of thin air) keeps making me laugh though. Except...that's it. Just the idea of her doing that is all that's funny.

Well, there are two things:
1. They, for some reason, end up being unable to participate in a sports event and convince Rarity to go in their place.
2. Dash has Rarity take over weather duties with her magic. With full lists to prevent her from messing it up like she did in Magical Mystery Cure.
The one where Cherokee needs a sub sounds funny
This. I need it.
Go with either the Pinkie or Discord idea. They're always good for absurd humor.

I dunno, I'm not so great at Pinkie humor. It tends to get too zany for my own taste. Or at least, that's what I end up writing. I like my Discord idea of messing with the mail but I don't know how to make writing it worthwhile. The hardest part is coming up with the right climax.
