Octavia loves cellos—that’s a fact. Octavia loves hot nights—that’s also a fact.

Vinyl has the best idea ever for Hearts and Hooves Day.

Oh... My fucking god.... I LOVE THIS!!!

Sexy and funny lol

Perfection.

All I can really say.

~Skeeter The Lurker

Vinyl Logic, Tavi. Don't question it.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh you. Yes it was funny. I laughed a lot at the start, but you maybe made this story too long. It started to drag at the end. You don't include a word other then dialog. Some descriptions could have helped maybe?

This story being pure dialogue was the point.

Hm. Not bad; I approve. Wait, I can't say that. Let's hear it from someone with a more respected opinion:

“The F-Holes look like they suddenly became literal.”

That killed me :rainbowlaugh:
I remember in my first year of playing the cello, everyone would always make fun of the F-holes

4053600 I was mostly pondering if throwing in some actions or descriptions could have helped out. I felt like things started to drag part way through and I think that it was because you needed more words to meet the minimum. Spending words on actions or descriptions could have let you cut out some of the dragging bits and still meet the minimum. Then again I might be over thinking this story. It was fun, cute and just a little naughty. :raritywink:

Huh. I expected this to be less of a random comedy, IMO. But hey. It has Vinyl and Tavi. Talking about a rubber cello :pinkiehappy:

How the heck did she get that anyway?

I can smell the clop fics!:raritywink:

Hey man, you got a link to the cover artist?
Want to sue him because i got diabetes from that picture. :pinkiehappy:

“Like, I’m not even joking. I’d nail you right here and now if we weren’t in public!”

I figuratively died laughing at this. The idea of giving someone a giant purple dildo, in public, just tickles me in all the right ways.:rainbowlaugh:

...Wait. That is not what I meant.:twilightoops:

Y'know, I had a lengthy conversation with the author about this issue.

I still think more markers would have been a mistake. It felt too unnatural. It's not so hard to realize who's talking -- it's always Vinyl/Tavi/Vinyl/Tavi/Vinyl...

4056065 I agree. In parts where neither Octy or Vinyl's names were mentioned, I needed to look back for clarity.

I liked the story, hope for more Slice of Life Octavia and Vinyl.

I haven't had such enjoyment from a fic in a long time. Not to mention an OctaScratch one. This is brilliance at its finest. My hat's off to you.

So, one of my most favorite authors on the site just followed me.

That's pretty cool, I guess.

I also need to change my pants.

4057409
I'm honoured. You done a good job. You and your pants.

I can't even...:rainbowlaugh:

All of my yes!:rainbowkiss: With a like and fave.:heart:

For all dialogue—something that'd normally drive me up the wall—I really liked this. Glad I got directed here by psp7master. I needed that laugh today. Also I coulda sworn I'd already been following you, but I remedied that either way. Got a like and fave as well.

4057467
God Damnit, Spark. Can I go anywhere you haven't been/will be?:derpytongue2: I feel like we read pretty close to the same fics.

4057639
Considering I'm the 23rd Midnight Spark, it's natural that I'm faster than you.:rainbowwild:

And here I thought the stuff I write is dialouge heavy excellent work by the way I laughed the entire time.

A great song for a great fic. Hilarious!

4060506
Finally someone noticed this! Yeah, I listened to Rhapsody up and down while I wrote this (in addition to the song reference at the near end, which no one else seemed to recognize yet...)

4060631 Ah! I didn't catch that one. Rhapsody is my favorite band, though, so there's no way I was gonna miss that reference!

Manowar - Achilles, Agony and Ecstasy in Eight Parts (28:38 min)

I'm a fan of longtracks. :twilightblush:

This is hysterical!:rainbowlaugh: I just love how the dialogue just gives you enough information and the rest just fills itself out in your mind.

Mine ribs. They hurt from the laughs.:rainbowlaugh::rainbowlaugh:

I think you forgot the descriptions. All of the descriptions are in fact missing. Besides not making the text look like a play script without the name tags, they also allow for greater expressiveness.

4062938
I didn't "forget" the descriptions. This was written as a dialogue-only story.

This is ... interesting:applejackconfused:

The win is strong with this one. :rainbowlaugh:

At least you tried Vinyl, now I suggest you run to the most populated area. I'd try my best to help, but being on the other side of the internet make things pretty difficult. Also I'd probably die laughing at the sight of the first two presents.

Okay... this is one of the funniest things I've ever read.

Oh my gosh this is hilarious!:rainbowlaugh: The fact that it's all dialogue makes it that much more funny!

Oh music puns. This was truly hilarious

Finally got round to reading something of yours. I think I can pride myself in my choice, and you can most definitely pride yourself in it too. Just don't get so proud that you show it to your mum, she most definitely won't thank you for that...

Wow! I should have read this a long time ago. It's entirely comprised of dialogue, and yet I wouldn't want it any other way. I see why PSP recommended this. :pinkiehappy::heart:

Wheres the sex

You don't get the concept of Teen/Sex-rated fan fics, do you?

This was way too damn funny XD :heart:

I laughed so god damn hard at this!

The sad part is, I can actually see vinyl doing that
(Boom!) "Oof!"
Huh, she was a few hours short, it is only wendsday
EDIT
VINYL: I am okay!
LYRA: Get off me...
VINYL: Hey Lyra, how's life?
LYRA: Growing dimmer as your fat butt crushes me
VINYL: sounds like a personal problem
LYRA: Tell... Bonbon... I hate the last of the pudding... and the cake... and the funky looking cheese in the crisper...
that wasn't cheese, that was organic gelatin
VINYL: You ate boiled hooves! EEEEEEWWWWW!!!!
LYRA: meh, I've eaten pork before... tasted like boiled cabbage
VINYL: I'm gonna go get the degreaser and do stuff...
And now, for today's regularly scheduled advert. Shop at the Mann and Co. store, where all your hat-related problems and needs can be solved for reasonable prices, this message is sponsored by the awesome Australian, Saxton Hale

so...you have pretty much embodied their characteristics and had me laughing my ass off. xD.....*assumes begging position* mawr!!

Can someone please get Elie Monty and Jessi Nowacking to make an audio reading of this. Please!!!

Update:

After many months of not touching this story, I've decided to rename this story from "The Perfect Gift for a Cellist" to "My Perfect Gift for a Cellist". I was getting continuously annoyed that this was the only story in my dialogue-only cycle that didn't have a first-person title.
