Best alternate ending ever!:rainbowkiss:

:pinkiecrazy:

:rainbowderp:

i have taken alot of inperation from cupcakes and other grimdark in my work, though i would never try and recreate it in anyway one thing always bugs me about the people who do alternate endings. That is pinkie her self, in alot of these people try and kill of pinkie as soon as possable and never even try and clue into why she might of did what she did. "she's insane" never did just cut it for me as i like devling into the killers mind as much as the victims.

this is the reason i thought the cupcakes story on its own failed as well (as much as i enjoyed reading it, it ended far to abruptly for my liking).

now your take on this isnt bad; no not by any means. its just somthing all grimdark writers have to get over one day that balance between letting the killer be myserious but also giving us why they did what they did. without this all you make is a slasher fic and without a shadow they can be good but never as satisfying in the long run.

thanks for listening to my rant. :pinkiesmile:

this actually shows emotion.

Thanks! I felt like the most important part of Dash's story was missing and the others were just like "Hooray i'm safe AGH! my wings!" I'm glad to see my emotion got across, I think I was most worried that I didn't write it well enough for people to feel.

There's a really good alternate by milesprower06 that delves into the cause of Pinkie's ways, but not through her perspective. If you haven't already I suggest reading it:

Thanks! :rainbowlaugh: I was nervous about submitting this, now i'm glad I did.

i have read that one and enjoyed it very much but thanks for offering an alternative.

A Precious Rainbow was without a doubt my favorite alternate ending. This one is in my top three, probably at #2. I like the alternates better than the original ending. One being that it's because Rainbow survives, but also, I get to replace the horror my eyes saw as I read every word of that fic with new endings that give hope.

Exactly why I started writing this! I was kept up for nights thinking about the story I had to make a happy one

i don't know which made me cry the most
the fact that cupcakes was fucked up and evil
or the fact that this was amazingly well written and beautiful and it actually had a happy ending i was expecting like crazy explosion shit to go down my rating is 5/5

I usually hate these cupcakes stories but this one was good, 5 stars

I couldn't bear to see Rainbow Dash end up the way she did, I was compelled to write another tale

why does every fic after cupcakes or if rainbow lived somehow pinkie always dies...call me a sadistic bastard i want to see a fic where pinkie lives to continue her work...

This made me sad, :fluttercry:
Then later it made me happy on the inside. :twilightsheepish:

But then you have to wonder what drove Pinke Pie to the realm of insanity, becoming her alter persona Pinkamena Diane Pie.
Perhaps something in her past? We already have a huge cartload of ideas of them.

I get a lot of people saying that we should tell Pinkie's story, my only response to that is write it yourself! I don't mean that offensively, I wrote this story to mold cupcakes in the image I wanted, If you want to read a story about Pinkie's side, write it! I'm always up for a good cupcake story :rainbowlaugh:

Why isn't this on EQD?

They don't take too kindly to Cupcake stories, number one, they did post a few but that was quite a long time ago, do you think it's worth the attempt? :rainbowhuh: I'm flattered, haha, but I don't know if I should bother.

this is one great alternative

A nice alternate ending! Thanks for giving me closure to that traumatizing story! :rainbowlaugh:

Thanks for reading!

32523 Like where her parent's make her kill and eat all her friends when she was still living with them.

Or when her parents killed Granny Pie and made Pinkie make HER into cupcakes so that she would never want to party again.

YES! Finally, someone who understands that it takes more than a few days to get over something like that, but still gets RD's character!

You showed how long the road to recovery was as well as how traumatizing that torture was, but still managed to keep Rainbow Dash in character; strong and independent.


Kudos to you.

Thanks, it's always nice to hear that someone enjoyed my writing! :rainbowlaugh: Wow, has it really been that long ago that I wrote this? Published two stories, drafts for at least five. . . bleh, I just prefer reading more than writing.

That.. is... so... AWESOME!!!! :rainbowkiss:

Thanks! Every time I think this got buried, someone comes along to tell me otherwise.

I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Aw, shucks. You don't have to say that. It's amazing as it is!

Touching, a good alternative end to Cupcakes.
