Spell 25


I write stories about the sexual experiences of small, multicolored equines. That's literally my contribution to the world.

I just realized this is the third thing in a row I've written that involves Rainbow Dash. I swear it was unintentional. Other ponies forthcoming.

While they do so in small, non-harmful amounts, please consult your heart before utilizing our services

I'd change heart to doctor, me and my heart haven't been talking to each other in a while, but I know my doctor will talk when I talk to him. :twilightsmile:

Need more... pls... more...

4472918 We forgive you. Rainbow Dash is best pony. Besides, basically anything with changelings is super hot :D

This is most excellent

“You wanna to come in?

"want to come in" or "wanna come in", your choice.

Cool concept, although a bit awkward for some reason. :twilightsheepish: I like the whole investigation of character you got going on, and, well I'm not into clop, so I can't give you a full opinion on your story.

I almost give a start when Rainbow drapes her wing around my back

This sentence is missing punctuation at the end.

This has my attention.

This was really good. Great job capturing Rainbow's vulnerability and nervousness. For all her brashness, it's not hard to assume she'd be very uncomfortable letting ponies in. SpitDash is an old favorite of mine(yet inferior in every way to the OTP of MacDash), so the interplay really was sweet.

I also really loved the hints about the changeling's past. I hope we can find out more about her as time goes on. How did she get here? Does she ever take male forms? How does this Persona business work?

Faved, and I can't wait for more! :twilightsmile:

Gah! No matter how hard I try, I always miss some of those typos. :twilightangry2:

Glad you liked it. And fear not: the answers to all three of your questions are on the docket.

Gentleman, this is fantastic. Truly. What you crafted here isn't clop. It's a story, with good characters, depth and an awesome payoff. The kind of story where, if you removed the sex, it would still be featured. Believe me, I've seen BAD stuff on this site but this is beautiful.

4512314 ill tell you all you need to know about changlings jack im not sure about this one but most changlings cant take both male and female for it is a strain on the mind and body unless the changling is vary skilled anything else let me know

That was rather sad and not what I expected.

“How was your life in danger, exactly? You afraid she might have farted out a rainbow and friendship’d you to death?”

I giggled way too hard at this.

You know, even though I'm currently co-writing a story where he is the typical borish oaf, I am a sucker for Blueblood redemption stories. There's just something about seeing him stripped away of all his pretentiousness and swagger and seeing him vulnerable. but it's not in a "Ha, ha, look at him" way, more... hopeful?

A few really nifty hints at Naamari's past, and life in the hive. She just keeps getting more interesting. And now a possible love interest?

Another great chapter, friend. :ajsmug:

A wonderful slice of life. :twilightsmile:

I really love this storyline !

Some people might call this clop with a plot, but the way it's written and how amazingly you have done it puts it as plot with clop in my mind. A small distinction, but one that makes me love it even more. Keep up the awesome work :)

This deserves more views.

I'm excited to see where this story will go--perhaps a scandal, or an identity crisis on Naamari's part?

Too intense clop in first chapter - from psychological point of view it's a little OOC for RD - but overall story is good. Keep going, dear author!

Well, this chapter gave me fits. It turned out longer than I was expecting, and I didn't plan it out as well as I should have. I was hoping to have it out last weekend. Of course, having to divide my time between this and the Clopmas in July stories didn't help. Hopefully the next chapter won't take as long.

But anyway, here it is. It's either the best chapter yet, or the worst. I'm just not sure which.

P.S. - You have no idea how hard it was not to call the opera "The Magic Flank."

Nice subtle hints as to Selardi's true identity is. Though, if you put a bit of thought into it the answer is obvious. Nice choice on not directly revealing her identity, and the reasons why. Even if the knowledge is obvious, it still leaves an air of mystery to the whole affair.

Another whorefic. When bronys will start to write interesting things about professions?

I assume it'll probably be at the same time when people stop complaining and actually do something to change it.

But until then, you'll just have to accept it. :ajsmug:

...Wow. I just read this this very morning and I gotta say, what a fic. Okay, it's another one where the main character is an escort. The escort is a changeling. Well, that establishes a good excuse. It involves sex with various partners. Again, I say, meh.

What makes this awesome? The interactions with the characters. Namaari should consider getting a degree in therapy, because what she does, is help ponies. Not just ponies who are horny or look for a decent date, but also ponies who have self-esteem issues when it comes to dating somepony else. She makes ponies realize how they can improve themselves by going out with them for one time and helps them and I must say, that is beautiful in itself.

I'll watch this, if only for the characters. And I do hope that Namaari have a few limits on what's okay to do.

Well, this was superb. I have to say that Lu... er, I mean SelardiShy is one of my old favorites, so this tickled my fancy a lot. Also love how you downplayed the sex even more in this chapter, focusing on the emotions. But what cinched it was that you never flat-out said her true identity. Very underplayed, and very fun to read.

This just keeps getting better, man! I can't help but wonder who or how Applejack will factor into this. Will she be acting out some AppleDash fantasy(I hope not)? Or will it be some other random ship? Ooh, so exciting! Thanks for all the hard work! :ajsmug:

It wouldn't be a stretch to say that Selardi is Princess Luna, but at the same time, since you never explicitly said that in your fic, it could be any magic user, EVEN DISCORD!

On a different note, you should have one client request her to be queen chrysalis, for whatever reason.

~Crystalline Electrostatic~

Beautiful and evocative. Tough choice between this and the Blue blood chapter

I had suspected Luna after awhile but that comment about opening the door sealed it for me. Fantastic chapter, this story has already far exceeded any expectations I might have had. I eagerly await our next view into Naamari's journey.

don't wanna rush anything but when is the next chapter coming out. a first time a changling story ever draw my attention and hell it did get my full attention all right. hope you did not leave a amazing story unattendent.

Don't worry, it's coming. Just... not as quickly as I'd like. After my whirlwind of activity in July, I've been in a sort of creative hangover. But even as I type this, I have my word processor open, chipping away at the new chapter. I hope to have it out sometime in the next few days, but we'll see.

4897463 a await your story

This is pretty impressive. It's a story tthat goes through all the motions pivotal for a good, lasting story and executes beautifully. I think my main draw to it is that it involves some good character study, in a perfectly built-up, natural way; at least when your suspension of disbelief is there. And I didn't find any particular moment of the story to break it either.

It sets up a normal situation for the main character and builds upon it, creating slightly different scenarios to keep things interesting, while giving away a tad bit of the overarching story each time, and, as I already said, the character study applied in-between really adds to everything. Not to mention the main character seems to play their part remarkably well: given that we see the story through their eyes, to always keep believable traits and thoughts for a changeling, all the while adding small bits of individuality to make it a character and not a standard bearer for their race is remarkable. And worthy of praise, too. I'm rather surprised this doesn't have even more likes, even.

I really don't care for the sex, but it clearly adds to the story-telling and that's also something impressive about this, so I can't complain about it. Overall, this is a pretty enjoyable read! Great work!

This is a really good story.

"Read all about Spell 25's exciting adventures with writer's block in his new, tell-all memoir: Sorry for the Wait. Coming to bookstores... soon-ish."

Seriously, though: Ugggggghhh! These past three months have been excruciating, creatively-speaking. I even tried working on other stories, but it was no use. I finally had to force it out like a kidney stone. I've been looking at this chapter for so long that I don't even know what to think of it, quality-wise. I'm sorry if it's not up to par. I think I've got my groove back, as t'were, so hopefully the next chapter will come a little more smoothly.

5167487 Well, from what I just read, I don't think you need to be worried about the quality of this chapter. It was every bit as wonderful as the last three. The symmetry between Naamari's own issues and those of her clients is poetic. It makes me smile every time I see this story update.

5167487
No apologies needed. I thought this was a great addition, advancing Naamari's character while providing insight into yet another client. And I thought the theme of illusion was handled well throughout. I'm glad to have found this story and any wait is worth it when the quality delivers.

For the record, I can't read a Trixie story/chapter without thinking of this song. Smoke and mirrors indeed...

You're a fraud and you know it
But it's too good to throw it all away
Anyone would do the same
You've got 'em going
And you're careful not to show it
Sometimes you even fool yourself a bit
It's like magic
But it's always been a smoke and mirrors game
Anyone would do the same

That was really hot! I Look forward to more.:pinkiehappy:

5167601

Thanks! :pinkiehappy: I guess I need to stop being so hard on myself. You'd think I'd have figured that out by now.



5167661

It's almost eerie how well the lyrics to that fit the chapter. :applejackconfused:

5167487

If I can give you some advice, not that it's worth a lot from me :) Don't worry, like at all. You may want to worry, but this story is of really high quality. And I know exactly how you feel, so hard to update a story, even when you want to, sometimes the writers block hits you.

But you've pushed through it wonderfully. I wish I was as good as you at getting through it.

I absolutely love the 'story' of the story by the way. So much better than just clop.

Wow. That was really deep. On par with Blueblood's chapter I think. Well either find happiness? I'd like to think so.

This story... it strikes me as surprising. It reminds me of life I have been living and honestly? I think I could learn a lot from this story.

:ajsmug:selfcest? I like where this is going!

4577105 I agree. But it's sad and unexpected in a good way. If that makes sense. :applejackunsure:

At this point I have to wonder; is Naamari really a prostitute, or just a highly unconventional psychiatrist? :trixieshiftleft:
Either way, I'll be back to finish reading this later. For now, I have to deny myself sleep for another few hours.

Well, two months is better than three, right? Progress! :twilightblush:

I decided to try something novel this time and not include a sex scene. Shocker, right? For whatever reason, the chapter just didn’t seem to work any other way. Assuming, of course, that it works as it is. I’ve been relying on sex for so long as a metaphor for personal growth that the pacing somehow seems off in the latter half of the chapter. But I’ll let you guys be the judge of that.

If you were looking forward to sexytimes, then never fear: We’ll return to our irregularly scheduled nookie next chapter. And if, like me, you have a weakness for Shining Sparkle, and you were disappointed by the lack of brother/sister action, then I’m pleased to announce that I’ll be writing a separate story that will explore the pairing (with sex this time), to be written… oh, you know what? I won’t even pretend to guess. It’ll be written eventually

That’s all for now. Thanks for reading.

This worked fantastically without the sex, and really threw some light on the broader applications of changeling mimicry and shapeshifting in pony society. Twilight might have thought she wanted sex, but she got what she needed instead, and that was cool.

Though Naamari running away from awkwardville to the extent of changing her regular coffee place was really rather ... ow.

Wow, I feel dumb, dood. True I skimmed it because of my hatred for TwiArmor but... I'm rather pleased with this outcome. As 5443979 mentioned, Twilight got what she really needed, dood. Then I read that last half of your chapter wrong (I tend to do that when I'm annoyed by shippings that I don't understand and make me angry, dood) and thought you'd might poke more TwiArmor into this story for giggles and was relieved when I reread it that it was just a possible story idea, dood.

I know this sounds super shallow, but that means I can keep reading this in hopes that if we ever revisit Twilight again... she'll see the TRUE light, dood. That she needed to be in Naamari's place in the last chapter with Trixie, dood. And yes... I am crazy for trying to push Futa-Twilight more, dood.

Also... I deleted my comment, not the author; hope that doesn't... hurt his/her credibility, dood.

Damn it. Just make Althea happy

4737018 Fun fact: the name Selardi is also the name of a lunar goddess of Urartu. She is counterpart to the Babylonian moon god, Sin.
