Know your Mare - overlord-flinx



It's silly, it's pointless, and it makes little to no sense... I've heard of worse story ideas.

SPECIAL: Audience Written Episode... And More.

Hey...

...You ever get that feeling you've left something undone...?

I know that feeling...

But you know what the difference is between you and me...?

I'm a reality bending super creature that can make those feelings go away by making everything and anything happen...

With just a simple...

-SNAP!-


(Pip)

(Discord)

Know your manticore, know your manticore, know your manticore...

...This was a really bad idea.

Under the spotlight, a furious manticore ravaged the stage. Pulling up the floor board, shredding the curtains, and just over all make a mess of everything in his sights.

How are we gonna get it out of here?

How'd you get it in here?

I thought you did

I thought the same.

Huh,

...

I wonder how Queeny's gonna get rid of it.


(Pip)

(Discord)

(Chrysalis)

Know Your Mare, know Your Mare, know Your Mare.

On the stage, a gray coated stallion happily occupied the spotlight.

"Mare? Again, really?"

If you would like we can always change it to filly.

"Mare is fine..."

Overlord-Flinx...

...is a writer.

"So, will we be just stating facts today?"

One,

"Huh?"

Overlord-Flinx...

...has loyal fans.

"Well, I guess you could say I do..."

Two,

"Why are-"

Overlord-Flinx...

...Is loyal to his loyal fans.

"Well, of course. Have I ever shown that I wasn't?"

Three,

"Seriously, why-"

Overlord-Flinx...

...Is lying.

"I believe you still haven't even given me any reason to lie yet."

Four,

"Will you-"

Overlord-Flinx...

...is a compulsive liar.

"Honestly, I haven't-"

Five.

"Stop that!"

Overlord-Flinx...

...has exceeded limitations.

"Was that a comple-"

"RED ALERT, RED ALERT."

"What is that?!"

"LIE CAPACITY HAS BEEN EXCEEDED."

That's our new lie detector, it goes off when somepony, like you, brakes the lying limit...

"PREPARING TO DISPOSES OF SOURCE."

I would suggest you start running.

Just then a green laser beam shot through Flinx's mane leaving behind a perfect round hole.

"Right."

Overlord-Flinx raced off the stage, barely dodging the various beams that shot at him on his way out.

Nice shooting Queeny, for a second there I almost thought you were actually aiming for him.

I wasn't supposed to?


(Anna, a floating puddle of ink)

(Tony, a big phoenix)

(Red, a turtle made of rocks)

So we are doing this show... Why?

Because it's fun! You like fun things, right?!

Sure...

THE SHOW HAS ALREADY STARTED, IDIOTS!

Whoops!

Know your mare Know your mare Know your pear

The spotlights move around for a few seconds before settling on a pink pegasus. She's startled by the sudden attention, but quickly regains her composure.

... What was that?

Sorry, I couldn't hold myself

DAMNIT RED, NOW WE HAVE TO START ALL OVER AGAIN!

Uh, don't tell the viewers who we are, please.

Oh... Sorry.

"What are you talking about?"

NONE OF YOUR BUISNESS!

Heart Daze...

"That's my name, yes."

...

I'm sorry, I can't do this.

What?!

She's so adorable.

"Thanks... I guess?"

Come on, don't be such a girl!

But I am a girl!

Fine, just leave.

Nah, I'm just joking. I can take it. Heart Daze is stupid.

"I've been called stupid so many times before that I'm used to it."

Woah, that's stupid.

Really stupid.

INCREDIBLY stupid!

"Stupid beyond belief."

Stuider than a laity!

Oooohh!!!

Dude, Noone's gonna get that joke.

What?!

Makes sense.

HEART DAZE IS DUMB!

"Yeah... what are we talking about again?"

We're talking about how stupid you are.

DUMB!

Adorable.

"Oh."

Heart Daze is sexy.

AND DUMB!

"What?"

Heart Daze...

IS DUMB!

Dude, can you stop that?

"Why? I find it funny."

Well, I don't, so shut up, idiot!

Are we done calling her stupid yet?

Fine. Heart Daze is a pegasus...

"Yes. Yes I am."

...who can't fly.

"I can to!"

Oh yeah?

"Yeah."

Prove it.

The pink pegasus extends her wings and takes off, leaving the floor.

Dumb move.

A click sounds as the pressure plate that was once the seat of the pink pegasus, releases a signal to the spotlights to focus on Heart Daze's eyes. The pegasus falls down with her eyes on fire, literally.

"What was that for?!"

I said you couldn't fly.

"I can fly, just not when you're blinding me with those f..."

A piano drops from the ceiling, landing right on Heart Daze.

Woah.

YOU GUYS WEREN'T SUPPOSED TO DROP IT ON HER!

Well, it's not my fault she moved right to the spot the piano was gonna land!

Yeah, I think we might need a doctor.

Well, this went swimmingly!

You can't swim.

Shut up.


(Original crew)

...So... Who is this guy again...?

...Never Heard of him...

...Well... Apparently... He's not from around here, according to his file... These pictures are nice though...

...Pictures...?

...Here... Look for yourself...

...Not bad... Hey... heres one of you queeny...

...What type of art is this...?

...It says that its... Pixel art...?

...Explains the name... Lets get started...

...Hmm...




Know your mare, know your mare, know your mare...

A spotlight shone down upon the lone stallion on stage. His coat and wings were a dull grey, his eyes were a golden brown, and his mane and tail were dark blue. He had twin saddle bags that bulged outwards from the contents. Under the left bag, a hilt stuck out from underneath the bag. A wooden bow was strapped upon his back. Hus cutie mark appeared to be a fist made out of boxes, with three golden triangles in the center. His expression was disinterest.

Pixel...

...gets lost a lot...

"Have you ever been inside a natural cave with no discernible landmarks? Its hard not to."

Pixel...

...hasn't had a partner in years...

"The places I go, the things I d-"

A sexual partner...

"Have you seen a female villager? That's fugly, with a capital Fug."

Pixel...

...Has no friends...

"I like being alone. Its better than having somepony around to mess with my stuff."

Pixel...

...is the major cause of deforestation...

"Hey! I replant tress! Sometimes... When I feel like it..."

Pixel...

...Once blew up a... Really...?... Once blew up a village...?

"I got bored."

...Thats... Evil...

"Chaotic good, I like to mess with ponies and not get thrown in jail..." A small smile grew on Pixel's face, "Or, like someone we all know, turned to stone."

...I was saving this for the end... But now seems good...

Pixel's art...

...Is horrible and nobody likes it...

The stallion's expression shifted violently, from cheekiness, to blind rage in an instant. With a growl, he lowered his front half and spread his wings. His wings did a single down beat, and he rocketed forward into the darkness.

"GRAAAAAH!"

The sound of breaking glass filled the studio.

...AHHH...! Get'em off...!

...Cap'n...!

...I like this guy...

"I'll show ya somethin' horrible that nobody likes!"

*CRACK*

...AHHH...Why is no one helping me...!?

...Ah'm afraid cap'n...!


(Grogar)

Discord, Chrysalis, and Pipsqueak suddenly found themselves on the stage. The three beings looked around in confusion, as they had only moments ago been sitting behind their panels. They looked ahead as a dark chuckle sounded from every corner of the studio.

“What is the meaning of this?” cried Chrysalis, always the first to be annoyed.

“Know your mare, Know your mare, Know your mare…” the dark voice responded mockingly, “So then, are you three ready?”

“Ready for what?” Discord gulped, as he and Pip edged closer to Chrysalis.

“Discord…wishes to wed Twilight Sparkle.”

“What? Is that it? Is that the best you’ve got?”

“Discord…does not deny his wish to wed Twilight Sparkle.”

“Hold on a minute. I don’t want to marry Twilight Sparkle. She’s a total dork.”

“Discord…is prejudiced against dorks.”

“Uh…Yeah. I guess so.”

“Discord…Is prejudiced against himself…”

“What? Are you calling me a dork, you--”

“Discord…Is a dork who wishes to wed Twilight Sparkle…”

“No I--”

“Now you know…Discord the hypocrite…”

Discord turned around to glare at the snickering duo behind him.

“I don’t mean anything against you cap’n,” Pip said, “But he got you pretty good…” The foal’s eyes suddenly went wide as the nightmarish voice called out his name.

“Pipsqueak…enjoys the company of Her Majesty, Princess Luna…”

“I…Guess…”

“Pipsqueak…is plotting to woo the mistress of the night.”

“…Wait! What did you say?”

“Pipsqueak…has aspirations of overthrowing Princess Celestia and ruling alongside his lover.”

“But I’m a kid! And we’re just friends! I don’t want to--”

“Pipsqueak…wishes to court Luna whilst in his childhood.”

“What kind of sick, twisted thought is that?!”

“Pipsqueak…is aware that his thoughts are sick and twisted.”

“ I…You…”

“Now you know…The future Emperor of Equestria, his Royal Highness King Pipsqueak.”

Pipsqueak quickly shuffled back in between Discord and Chrysalis. While Discord gave him a sympathetic pat on the back, Chrysalis couldn’t help but smirk at the foal. Or at least she did, until the voice boomed out.

“Her Majesty, Queen Chrysalis…”

“Yes?”

“…Must seek love in the guise of another mare.”

“I’m a changeling. It’s how we operate.”

“Queen Chrysalis…admits she cannot find love while

wearing her own face.”

“…What are you saying?”

“Queen Chrysalis…is aware that she is ugly.”

“Oh. Haha. Nice try.”

“Queen Chrysalis…is alone because she is ugly.”

“Really? I don’t hear anyone else up there with you either.”

“Queen Chrysalis…must kidnap stallions to court them.”

“How did you know--I mean--”

“Queen Chrysalis…tried to do things with Shining Armor.”

“Nothing happened! Nothing at all! I would not degrade myself in such a manner!”

“Queen Chrysalis…admits that even while disguised as one of the most beautiful mares in Equestria, she still couldn’t get--”

“Shut up! Just shut up!”

“Now you know…how pathetically alone Queen Chrysalis is.”
