Sweetie_Belle.jpg is a fantastic file, doing her duty and sending electronic heart attacks into the populace at large. But her life isn't all copy and paste, there's trouble in Equestria.zip, and only Sweetie_Belle.jpg can restore peace to the numerous files and codes in Cheerilee's_Classroom.exe
Sweetie_Belle.jpg will travel far and wide to solve the mystery of the corrupted Diamond_Tiara.png, with her friends at her side: Flightless_Chicken.gif and Apple_Bloom.png
This is their story.
Now with a reading by kingfish! Go check him out :
[This is]..one of the most bizarre yet internally coherent stories I have ever read. - PresentPerfect
This is so beautifully nerdy and fun! Write MOAR!!!!!!!!!

And to think, I don't even know what half of the things mean for the computer files. Like png, gif, .dat, I'm clueless when it comes to technology.
So I must've done it right. However, this was a one-off, nothing more here. Sorry
And then they went to war with the sound files. They fought bitterly, but in the end couldn't stand up to the constant barrage of .wav and .ogg

BTW, have you taken a look at my fic yet?
This actually reminds me of one of those Stickman vs Computer animations.
5110397
I have not, but if you go here, you can spread the word all you like. Thanks for reading!
5110413
I was thinking of those when writing the arrow!
Definitely part of my influence, those.
This was ingenious...and hilarious!
My inner Ned (my entire being) cries out for more
5110540
I might be able to plan further adventures when I'm further along in my other stories, but for now, it's a one-shot. Sorry. But thanks for reading!
5110529
Thanks! I was struck by the inspiration, and had to let it out.
*likes and faves instantly* This is so creative! Love the Animator vs. Animation similarities with the arrow! I love how toiling of created an entire universe of computer files!
You should write more like this!
Oh my God, dude.
Faving this SO hard!
That was sheer brilliance.
5110581
Thank you SO much! I totally didn't mean to shit out literary genius, I mean, sometimes it forces its way out.
5110569
Thanks! I actually pulled a lot of inspiration from the idea to make this universe here. I figured enough people knew it so it'd be relatable
Awww, that can't be it! I want to see Sweetie_Belle.jpg, Flightless_Chicken.gif, and Apple_Bloom.png go on moar epic adventures! Please continue this!
5110619
Okay, okay! Geez, don't gotta push the gun so far into my chest, I'll make more!
Right after I get more inspiration.
More please.
I can't even... My sides... Dear god yes
Which is probably "admin".
5110638
Nooo.
Puny mortals have no understanding of a real passcode.
It's 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.
5110664
That's incredible! That's the same combination I have on my luggage!
One of the most perplexing yet perfectly pleasant plays I've had the pleasure of perusing.
Oh man I didn't even realize that it was YOU until after I finished reading.
This was absolutely FANTASTIC!
5111187
S~Senpai!
I actually got some name inspiration from Swooty Bell, and I read the last update, and the comedy feeling transferred to this.
Thank you so much!
5111207
So I MAY end up making a small comic and or animation based on this if you're ok with that.

I'M DOWN!
I can't help but wonder how SweetAI Belle would react to this...
As for my reaction, I think I will run favorite.exe immediately. Thanks for writing!
5111437
Oh gosh, I didn't even realize that was a user!
Shizz, hope they'd approve.
/r sides_orbital
5111473
What.
From what little I think I know, I'm sure SweetAI would give this story approval.
Hmm... Would you mind if I sent the link to this story on their userpage?
5111497
Sure! More promotion's never a bad thing.
This was really freaking cute I loved it. Eekk! Read it all the way through. :D
5111478
What.
5111639
I didn't get it. I'm not really a programmer or computer freak.
5111650
It's a Romantically Apocalyptic joke, anyway. At one point there's a weird medieval thing and we're shown "the word of Mod", /r schoolbus.
Which spawns a schoolbus.
I've only read the description, and I'm already laughing my fricken ass off!
And now I'm laughing harder!

That was a fun story, though I think I must be in a different kinda computer. There aren't any of these places with colons in 'em, and programs don't have exe in them and are usually in the user bin. um, /usr/bin, I think?
I enjoyed it, anyways. Where was Silver Spoon, though? Maybe she got corrupted before Diamond? Of course, you could write about Flutter.bat, too...
--Sweetie Belle
5113167
I love you so much right now.
5113167 Well, hello there! I'm glad you liked it. As far as names of places and stuff, I actually dug around my laptop to find the proper terms.
Silver never really played an important part, as I like to imagine she has been corrupted already. Of course, you're free to make your own idea on what happened to her.
Now, would you be terribly upset if I wanted to use Flutter.bat in my next one?
5113788
Thanks!
5114100
You can write about Flutter.bat next if you want. I'd suggest having Sweetie.bat too, but given we already have Sweetie_Belle.jpg, that might be redundant...
--Sweetie Belle
Will track. The premise is pure genius.
Wonderful.

These are jokes that should've gotten more upvotes.
5114519
I should probably look up what .bat means But thank you for reading and dropping a comment!
5114674
Thanks! I've marked this one complete, but I'm planning a couple sequel one-shots. Stay tuned for more!
I'll upvote this, and I know that it isn't supposed to make sense, but inconsistency of the extensions and computer stuff annoyed me.
Wouldn't the virus still exist, because it's now in Apple_Bloom.png as well? Surely deleting Diamond_Tiara.png wouldn't have gotten rid of it because it had a new file to hide in.
Also, is Twilight a gif? I can imagine Twilight_Sparkle.gif being just as hilarious as Flightless_Chicken.gif.

YES MORE PLEASE
