This story is a sequel to Pinkie's Party Gift


Twilight struggles with her assignment to learn more about Ponyville culture as she learns that Applejack is pregnant. Before long, Twilight discovers a dark secret in Ponyville that will rock her to her core.

This story picks up with the aftermath of the first story, Pinkie’s Party Gift. I have recently updated and improved that story greatly. Reading it is encouraged but optional, as the events in that story are summarized near the beginning of this story.

Author's note: Chapter 2 is especially funny :ajsmug:

Chapters (2)

This has the makings of a TWILIGHT ZONE style dark dark piece.

:moustache: All the males are labottomized or done away with.All colts are killed society

"You're all ' fixed' up":twilightsheepish:

:moustache:"Noooooooo!"

:raritystarry: "Not my Spikey Wikey"

“Agh!” cried Twilight, as she impulsively released Spike from her grasp. Spike began waking up right as he was falling off the bed into a cold puddle.
“Agh!” cried Spike as he hit the puddle on the floor.
“Spike! Gross! We’ve talked about this!” Twilight said as she was shaking the cold urine from her fur.
“But...but it wasn’t me! I mean...it wasn’t my fault! You wouldn’t let me…”

heh, I know how that goes. You squeeze a kid, they're likely to pee.

“I just hope it’s a little filly…” Fluttershy’s expression turned to a concerned look.
Twilight frowned. “Why is everypony in this town like that?!?”
“What do you mean?” Fluttershy asked.
“Why does everypony in Ponyville hate colts so much?!?” Twilight was starting to get mad.
“I don’t hate colts. It’s just that raising one in Ponyville can be such a burden, especially after their first birthday. This isn’t Canterlot, you know.”

.....:unsuresweetie: Not sure how I feel about that comment.....

5233122 Don't worry, the story will explore that second part in much more detail in upcoming chapters, likely the next chapter :twilightsmile:

i def recomend changing the tags, abortion and labotomys are not comedic, this would be more appropriate as a dark/tragic/sliceoflife/alternate universe. dark and tragic are obvious, sliceoflife since these are real world issues, and alternate universe for the simple fact that only twilight is even remotely acting like the creators intended, i highly doubt if i told my friend that i just tried to kill myself cause of reasons they would say "suck it up"

Oh, bloody hell, not this again... :facehoof:

5233822 Thanks for the comment. A problem I've faced more than once is that this site doesn't allow 'Comedy' and 'Tragedy' tags on the same story, so it forces me to pick one or the other, not both. I try my hardest to lean towards the comedy side, and there will be no abortions in this story. As for lobotomies....I did tag it with 'slice of life' :rainbowlaugh:

You have my interest. I feel so bad for that poor colt. :pinkiesad2:

I forgot I down voted the previous story with extreme prejudice. Well... I still feel that way... You know what doesn't make sense about the new story in this travesty? Applejack and Rarity are the only native Ponyville residents, so for the others to be acting this way it has to be an well known equestrian thing if the other 3 do it unflinchingly and don't explain it to the new comer. Big mac has talked more often in the show than just eenope and eeyep, so his lobotomy would have to be recent. I'd say put an AU on this, but then again I don't really care because it disgusts me. Now to read a cute story to get the horrible taste out of my mind.

This is a script I created.

:twilightsmile:: Hey Rarity,know what?
:duck:: What?
:moustache:: Nnnooooo! Don't tell her Twilight!
:twilightsmile::Spike pees on the bed!
:moustache::Nnnooo! Why!?
:raritywink: Heehee, Oh Spike. It's nothing to be ashamed of. Sweetie belle does it sometimes.
:unsuresweetie::HEY!

sorry if i copied your idea of
a dialougue. PEACE! :pinkiehappy:

When will the next chapter be out. And will we find why everyone is so anti-col in the next chapter?

5237325 I'm aiming to get the next chapter out on the 19th. I will try to wrap up this story in the next chapter, but it may overflow into one more chapter after that. I will explore in detail what happens to colts that are allowed to be born. I'll also go into why the town is the way that it is, but it's mostly going to be chalked up to a cultural thing. I'll explain what started it, though :ajsmug:

>>CharliebbarkinNo offense but I do find this story a bit sick, because I not really all that fond of people that act as if a life is worth noting because of his/her gender/appearance/race.

And I partially agree with with Zeyon, and the comment that Charlie replied to is not it was my brother that got onto my account.

Having read both, I am in agreement with you... TO FRIENDSHIP AND IN-CHARACTER INTERACTIONS!!

5239556 Both things that are nowhere to be found in this story!

Ugh, where to start? Still rushed and without an ounce of Comedy. As for the Princess, you expect us to believe Celestia, Twilight's mother figure(no offense meant to Twilight Velvet), is more concerned her friendship powered super-weapon is able to enforce her will than the fact that somepony who is like a daughter to her was just tricked into what, regardless of what anyone else thinks, Twilight is convinced is murder? Or that Pinkie(who is literally the Element of emotional healing) is so insensitive she is incapable of realizing Twilight is emotionally scarred by this? The fact that Big Macintosh can't speak is surprising, perhaps because he has said more than "eyup" and "nope" several times now?! And let's not mention you have Twilight treating Spike like he's a pet and lying right after telling Pinkie that lies are wrong...

Do you hate Twilight? Because these stories make me wonder. Let me see, Celestia is made a racist alongside allowing this nightmare to go on, and you've included Applecest. How original and canonical! Granny Smith is made outright evil(not to mention AJ's dad)and the fact it's for tax purposes just makes everyone's decisions that more vile. And, to add a Cherry on top, Twilight is again stupid enough to trust another of her so-called "friends"(both of whom are Earth Ponies; any particular reasons?) when it comes to spells and moral judgements. And, like before, I award you negative points, may He have mercy upon your soul, and I hope Chrysalis, Discord, or Tirek give this place what-fore!

5258125 Haha, no, I don't hate Twilight...She's my favorite of the mane 6 :twilightsmile:

As for your comment in chapter 1, "Still rushed and without an ounce of Comedy"....all the things you listed ARE the jokes :rainbowlaugh: Come on, having Twilight remind Pinkie that lying is wrong, then immediately lying to Fluttershy didn't make you smile at least a little? Or having Pinkie be completely oblivious to why Twilight was angry with her? And Applejack actually didn't trick Twilight...she just assumed Twilight knew what 'fixing' meant. She probably should have finished reading the town charter :twilightoops:

I don't know why I read this. I know why I read the previous story, but I cannot fathom why I read this.

The last story was just bad with completely out of character Pinkie, AJ, Rarity and Twilight and having a "friend" force someone into doing something that was morally repugnant to them.

This story was just stupid. Because one stallion did something horrible all males in Ponyville have to get their brains scrambled by the age of one. Even though we've seen all the male characters in Ponyvile (Davenport, Mr. Cake, Bulk Biceps, Big Mac and even Snips and Snails) show more intelligence then what is on display here. Twilight goes from horrible depression, to the point of needing medicinal help just to cope with the guilt, to instant forgiveness of the pony who caused her such grief in mere hours. AJ is borderline illiterate but also knows enough about magic (as an earth pony this makes total sense) to double check a brain removal spell.

The only thing even remotely funny is the Let It Go joke and even then it's not even worth the effort of an eye roll. The humor falls flat because it's ill conceived, ill-timed and just plain poorly written. Like the previous story, this story isn't "ha ha" funny. It's not situationally funny. It's not satirically funny. It's not funny in how bad it is. It's just not funny in any possible concept or permutation of "funny" or "amusing."

I feel like I should also point out this isn't even good as a trollfic. The writing is just too bland and boring for it to even count as that.

5343558 "(Davenport, Mr. Cake, Bulk Biceps, Big Mac and even Snips and Snails)" I dunno, man. Out of all of them, the only one in the show with normal mental faculty is Mr. Cake. Maybe his parents decided to just pay the tax? Or his parents rented forever and thus didn't owe property tax? And look who he had to marry, that is unfortunate. Maybe he isn't all there upstairs after all. But all the rest you mentioned are very dim in the show. That is canon.

5345797
There is no evidence that Carrot Cake HAD to marry Cup Cake. Their relationship shows signs of mutual trust and affection which is not usually readily apparent in a forced or unwilling marriage. I can only assume that you see Carrot Cake's marriage as negative because Mrs. Cake is heavier than the average mare. When Mrs. Cake is first introduced it's quite likely that she's very far along in her pregnancy, in which case it would be normal and healthy for her to be heavier than the average mare. Or perhaps Carrot Cake just likes his mares chubby. In any case, there is no reason to assume that the Cake marriage is anything but positive.

Snips and Snails are incredibly gullible and have been shown to follow ponies/people with strong personalities but they have never truly been shown to be stupid enough as to be mentally impaired. Bulk Biceps is clearly not very bright, but again not to the point of mental impairment. He has said more than "YEAH!" in canon and he's clearly at least mentally competent enough to compete in a national level competition. Big Mac has shown intelligence on par with his sister AJ. That is to say, at least average intelligence and not practically illiterate as you portray her. That is canon, not your enormously stupid idea of colt lobotomizing.

5346122 Relax, I was just joking about Mr. Cake. Although, I'm pretty sure she steals most of his food. Anyway, Snail's special 'talent' is literally to be mentally slower than a snail. Canon. The only thing other than 'YEAH' I remember Bulk Biceps saying is when he thought Rainbow Dash started with a 'T'. The scenes where big mac is smart are jokes, much like scenes where fluttershy is mean. There is something wrong with the colts and stallions in ponyville.

When's the sequel

I LOVE this story! It shows that Ponyville really isn't a paradise.

No offence but I HATED this and the prequel. It's really rushed has no detail and the plot is just...
I don't have the words for how bad the plot is!!!! :facehoof:

You really need to work on your fics.

I don't really like this but my biggest problem is that with all the other idiocy you also decide to make Celestia a racist (speciesist?). It just makes the problems to over the top. If I was Twilight I would find a spell to make it that ponies in ponyville can only give birth to colts.

“Back when Applejack was a youn’un, ah caught her father cheatin’ on her mother. Why, that still makes my blood boil. When I confronted that scoundrel, he went and skipped town. Wasn’t long before Applejack’s mother...my poor daughter died of a broken heart.” Granny’s speech wasn’t as sad as it was angry. She continued talking.

Well, this aged poorly...

True. It's the least of this story's problems...
