DON'T DO STUPID

T
Her

She raised me.

She taught me.

She loved me.

She helped me exist.

...Time to repay the favor.


A challenge I put on myself at The Writer's Group to write a story out of a single passage.

Thanks to Pearple Prose for the passage!

Yeah, it was good.

Just... dat ending :rainbowhuh:

Can't find the right words to describe this story...

uh I- this... what

I believe it, too.

I think he's making fun of what twilight was willing to do in "The Equestrian Games" for the person they thought was the coordinator.

Uhh... What?

That was... unexpected...

Loved it! :pinkiesmile: :rainbowlaugh: The ending really surprised me. :pinkiegasp:

Da fuck?
I'll give you a like... I guess... :twilightoops:
Yea sure.

Well that was unexpected.

What compelled you to write this garbage?

Trash

Constructive Criticism Corner:
I did notice some grammatical mistakes, but everyone has those. What got me was that some of your paragraphs just sounded... odd.

Using the drainage spell, the once beautiful and immortal alicorn's body color lost its luster, her face growing more wrinkled and aged as thousands of years living were dumped upon her. She'd said a few incoherent mumbles as she experienced old age in seconds, but she was too weak to retaliate.

This paragraph in particular seemed awkward. 'Drainage' is an acceptable word, but it just has a very mundane connotation. 'Draining' or 'parasite' would work. As for '...alicorn's body color lost its luster...' You could abbreviate 'body color' to 'coat' or 'fur.' I think you get the picture.

As for the ending, it is a major anticlimax. It's kind of hard for someone to accept this as a tragedy. It seems kind of trollsy and bland, but this is certainly a new one for me.

I hope you find my criticism helpful. If you wish to discuss more, feel free to ask via the Ask Applejack forum.

Thanks for the criticism!

Plus, I just wanted the ending to be absurd as possible. Had I added a comedy tag, it would've been less of a surprise.

3292130 I understand. It certainly worked. :trollestia:

... that was glorious.

No clue who peach is, but I rather enjoyed Twilight destroying everyone

Ms. Peachbottom is the pony the mane six mistook for Ms. Harshwinny.

Envy: Me after reading "Her" and looking at the long description bar. "She wasn't taking about Celestia holy Sh!t" :twilightoops:
