...can I even call myself this if I quit smoking years ago?

Blueblood has an inherent love for the orchestra, but he does not care to attend the symphony. He would much rather have private performances. Sequel to Play for Me.

What in the name fuck did I just read?! Holy shit did that escalate quickly...

Too short, I was really hoping for more, and there is so much more you could have.

It was a rushed piece, somewhat sloppy, but you told an engaging story anyway.

That takes talent.

This was to explain the "play for me" fic to those who didn't read it.

I should probably make an edit to inform everyone that it's a sequel.

Kurt Vonnegut's rules of writing fiction; no. 1: Use the time of a total stranger in such a way that he or she will not feel the time was wasted, no 4:Every sentence must do one of two things—reveal character or advance the action, no. 5: Start as close to the end as possible.
Sudden escalation is just how I like to do things.

What details would you have liked?

3259754 I would have loved to see the trial and what happened to the ponies(and the griffon)

That griffon had hell of Stockholm Syndrome going on. His story would have just been very very sad. All playing that bassoon every single time he saw a sandwich due to an ingrained Pavlovian response, and hording candles. Like his wife gets on to him because they live in a nest, and the candles are a fire hazard. But she doesn't understand, Mr. Griffon needs his candles because they tell him how good he's been. I do not even want to think about Mr. Griffin's story. I see your point about the trial though.

This comment wins the thread. Have a moustache. :moustache:

3260086 sadness PINKIE PIE WE HAVE A GRIFFON IN NEED OF SERVICE

Pinkie Pie would probably find it funny to place sandwiches on his beak to see how long until he gives in to the urge to eat it. Then she would give him candles to make him happy.

That's just what you do when the dog piddles on the carpet.

3260424 .... PINKIE I MEANT A PARTY

Well... That was chilling. I don't know what scared me more, the painfully casual murder halfway through or that part at the end.
Imagine if Rarity had actually gotten his attention...
Just to clarify, that's entirely praise for a horror story, nicely done! :pinkiehappy:
EDIT: Adding to that, seeing the word 'Play' by itself, as on a video or something, now has a slightly different meaning. :rainbowderp:

I know that feel on the 'play' thing. I have not heard 'play' by itself ONCE today without feeling weird. :twilightoops:

I really like the disturbing imagery this invokes. I would kinda like to see a more fleshed out version of this, like how he first realized this is something he wanted.
