Cutie Mark Spark

Author's Note:

If you haven't figured out yet this is just a series of short stories, No human interaction and no crossover pokemon sonic crap.
I hate the Pokemon/ Sonic crossover things and most human crossovers. The main one I'm ok with is "Human in a pony's clothing"

I am extremely bored so don't dislike if my story is all over the place. Thats how my stuff gets when Im tired/ bored/ hungry/ grounded.
And I'm all four of those.

Cutie Mark? What does it mean? Where does t come from? What does Mine mean? Rapid questions rushed through my mind.
"I still don't understand what my cutie mark means" I tell Dash as we walk home "You made history! Your cutie mark makes sense, Why doesn't mine?"

"Some Ponies Cook, Some Farm, And some sell things." She explained "For you, well. Don't you like music? That could explain the notes, But the heart. I have no Idea"

"Maybe the heart means no-pony will ever like me, Or it means... I dunno."
It makes me think, What does this mean? If No-Pony Likes Me... What will happen? Wait a second... Did I just lose my common sense? Rainbow-Dash Is my friend so It cant mean that...

"Well It doesn't mean that no-pony likes you, Scar" She Said "Because You have friends, And if you din't have friends it would mean that, but you do. Soo."

Now I'm confused We both think...

It's about time I figure out what my cutie mark means, but first, I need to eat dinner!


--------------------------------------------------------------------AFTER DINNER---------------------------------------------------

I go upstairs to my room, I get out paper and a few pencils. I start to sketch out my cutie mark on a piece of paper, I label the parts, the notes and the heart.
It's very strange how I would get a cutie mark like that... Or is it..?

"I GOT IT!" I accidentally yell out loud. I got what the heart means! Since I'm stronger than most colts my age and I like more violent games and music... The heart represents strength and violence and the music notes, well represent music!

I have to tell Dash!

Life of ScarHoof (shortstory-ish) by ScarHoof

First, don't put "(shortstory-ish)" in the title. That's pointless and looks really dumb.
Second, Never, Ever, Ever write a story with your username in the title. Don't write a story where the main character has the same name as you. You'll get a whole lot of dislikes for that.

This Is a story about my OC maybe, just maybe encountering other OC's along the way.

This has been done a thousand times before by a thousand authors, and it's never good. So it's a cliche and a bad stereotype rolled into one.
It's also what's called a Self-insert. These suffer from a variety of problems inherent in the fact that you are the main character. Authors tend to make themselves Mary Sues, bland characters with no flaws. It also shows a lack of creativity, rather than make some new exciting character, you use yourself. No creativity necessary.

Growing up with rainbow dash and all of Equestrias troubles along the way.

And if for some reason, you think you can pull off a story with your OC and not make him/her bland and unoriginal... DON'T bring the Mane 6 in. It doesn't fit canon, doesn't have a good reason to be there, doesn't make your story better.

Hey, if possible, can you put my OC in this fic?
fimfiction-static.net/images/story_images/171602.png?1393369593
His name is Shadow Incredible, he is married to Luna and he's Princess Celestia and King Sombra's nephew. His dad is Darkness Awesome and his mom is Princess Luna.

It would mean so much to me if you included him in it. :pinkiesad2: I worked really hard to make him, it would mean the world to me if you put him in your story.

A question: How long did it take you to write this?

Wait, he's married to Luna and Luna is his mother... eww.

5356218 this pretty much made my day lol

5357711
Yeah, that's a common complaint about his backstory. It's a different Princess Luna.

5356163 Im just going to have to ignore you- for the fact That I have my own writing style, So what if other authors have a similar style, also the fact that I can add in other Peoples OC's in is to help other people get more known... And for their entertainment. I dont know about you but I dont like big Sun Butts hating on my work.

5357689 So far maybe about 2 to 3 days. I dont work much on it.

5358843
You are the best author I have ever met. :rainbowkiss: Can't wait to read the chapter with him in it!

5356098 for the fact that I am NOT done you should go die in a pit (No dont go die Its a joke) Anyway if you read properly its not done. It's a work in progress so shut up plez.

5356163 Question... You said for me to not let other OC's in but you also said for none of the cannon characters... What the heck?

DON'T bring the Mane 6 in

also

It doesn't fit canon,

Sooo Is it just me in equestria alone? XD you suck please leave me alone. its a W.I.P story

5356163

Don't write a story where the main character has the same name as you.

My Account is based off of my OC why do you think they have the same name?

5358856 Thanks! I'm pretty sure your a good author too. I'm so glad your not another one of those mods hating on my work... DX

Anyway, Thanks dude. *BroHoof*

5358900 To clarify the words of the wise Twilight Sparkle...actually, gonna give you a piece of advice: I'd recommend reading other fanfictions, both good and bad, to get an idea of what to do and what not to do in works of literature. It's really all I can say without becoming a bottle rocket since I just woke up. :unsuresweetie:

5358978
I would never hate on your work! :pinkiegasp: I would never have asked for you to include my prized OC if I didn't think it was amazing.

5358872 So? That doesn't mean I still can't help you get better, and by the looks of things, you don't take too well to constructive criticism.

5358843
You realize Scootareader was being sarcastic, right? He just listed the most ridiculous backstory and character names ever, and the OC is a stereotypical red and black OC. It is an awful idea unless you are a troll.

5358971
I'm saying don't write a story about your OC. What do you not get? I explained why Self-insert OC stories are bad!

5358900
I didn't say none of the canon characters, I said not the Mane 6. Use background characters, use minor characters (The Cakes, Gilda, Flim and Flam, Babs, etc.), just don't have your OC be buddy-buddies with the Mane 6.

5358978
He's being sarcastic!

At least he is not an Alicorn, or Black and Red, or the "seventh element of harmony".

And on a very good note, he is not over-powered. I hope.

Self Insert Recolor Of Rainbow Dash OC Wish fulfillment.

OH GOD, RUN!

Oh! Can I too be included in the story?

5359747

Babs,

HOW DARE YOU CALL MY LITTLE BABS A MINOR CHARACTER! SHE IS A CUTIE MARK CRUSADER!

You know, actually, we should turn this story into a collection of our OCs. it'll be awesome.

Hey author, I have an awesome unicorn OC named Spoiler Alert. I'll give you a picture if you want, but he's dark blue with cyan mane and tail, and he wears glasses and has a watch on his left forehoof. Make him date Twilight Sparkle.

5360267
She appears in only two episodes. Pretty minor if you ask me. Even Trixie does better than that, she's in both movies too.

5360341

Babs is more developed than Trixie. At least Babs isn't a comic relief fanservice.

Ooo! Ooo! I wanna be in this as well!

My OC is Swift Sky. He is a blue coated pegasus with red hair (Like Soarin's, kind of) and he has a scroll with a dagger through it as a cutie mark!

Make him date Applejack, please! If you do, I can give you a little thumb up. Because I haven't rated yet on this.

Can someone explain to me what the f:flutterrage:ck the description is being depicted in?
Is it 3rd person?
Is it 1st person?
All I see is the worst draw in of the century.

Not gonna lie, kid. You've got a lot to learn about story telling and character design.

5360253 why does it seem like the OC dating Rainbow Dash wish fullfilment is getting more popular now

5360491

Because RD is the "Most relatable and the most 20% cool!"

5359732
Hey! I have great OCs, for your information. :twilightangry2:

Why is everyone being an ass? This is a good story and probably the first one he has ever made! So why can't you encourage him instead of beating him down over every fucking mistake you can find!

5360997 point out where this can be a good story, the.n I'll believe you. By every measure of storytelling, this story is bad.

Sarcasm! Sarcasm everywhere!

Ok, All Bitches out there, Shut the buck up about my writing. also this story is discontinued because I got banned for a typo. Thank you for you bitch ass hating comments.

5591800 Swearing at everyone doesn't make you much better.
