Vinyl sat in a chair at Sugar Cube Corner, quietly sipping at her lemonade. For some reason, it helped lessen her headaches, which seemed to be happening more and more often. She glanced up, seeing a cyan pegasus mere inches away. She calmly placed her cup down and readjusted her glasses. "Can I help you, Dashie?"
"Yeah. You can tell me who won!" Obviously impatient, she slammed her hooves onto the table. "I made a wager with Applejack that I'd win, and I don't have the bits to pay if I lost!" She paused for a moment, confused. " ... who decides the winner, anyways?"
Vinyl grinned, lowering her glasses. "Trust me, your sanity probably couldn't take it." She pulled out her phone, using her magic to press the buttons. "...okay, so it seems that-"
"Vinyl, what is that?" Rainbow pointed at the cell phone, confused. To her, it looked like a box with light coming out of it.
She waved her hoof, laughing a bit. "Don't worry about it!" She turned back to her phone, reading her messages. "Anyways, it turns out that..." She turned away, smirking softly. " ... pause for dramatic effect ... "
Rainbow rolled her eyes. "That's my line, goofball."
"Do you want me to tell you or not?"
" ... I'll be quiet ... "
"Anyways ... " Vinyl pointed a hoof at the pegasus, grinning. " ... you won. But just barely."
"YES!" Rainbow leaped in excitement, landing on her back hooves. "Now Twi has to erase everypony's memories of those photos!" She pumped her hoof in the air in celebration.
" ... oh? What photos?" Vinyl tilted her head, curious. "And I thought you made the bet with Applejack?"
Rainbow blushed brightly, rubbing the back of her head. " ... nothing ... forget I said anything!" She flew off towards the library to cash in on her win.
The white unicorn sighed, glancing around nervously. " ... I hope she's not working today ... " She started slightly when a magenta wave suddenly hurtled towards her. She closed her eyes, but nothing happened to her. Cracking one open, she saw that everything looked the same. She pondered this for a moment, but shrugged it off as a normal day in Ponyville. She picked her lemonade back up, drinking it with utmost satisfaction.
Okay, so I'm putting this up for about a day. I want to know whether or not I should do this for each rap battle thingy.
Oh, and it really was close: just one vote separated them from getting a tie.
In other news, I have the story behind the next battle done. I just need to find a good opening line to get the rap ball rolling...
Oh, and I decided who the next pairing is going to be. Thus the reason behind the part above. ^^;
Enigma out.~
You could I guess, though the "voting" system is fairly easy to abuse no matter what restrictions you place on it.
643057
...i'm sorry to say i don't understand...
>>enigmaMystere
I would have gone with Spike and Rarity, but she's already had a battle.
Plus, Spike and Sweetie were dancing together during the finale.
643059
He's talking about one person spamming the comment section with comments about their favorite winning. But that's easily avoided by only taking one vote per account.
643074
oh. i do that anyways.
643059
Okay, maybe I worded that a little weirdly.
Hypothetically, if you set up some way for people to vote online, it's possible that some people that are registered in multiple accounts could abuse their privileges and vote for the same side twice.
For example: Let's say a guy named Rob Schneider has two accounts on this site. One registered with the username "Rob" and the other with the username "Schneider". If he wanted to rig a vote that was taking place on here, he could potentially vote once as "Rob" and vote for that same option again as "Schneider".
But you and I would never know since he never openly stated that he had two accounts.
...
Oh, cheeze-its. I'm rambling.
I think this little "round up" after the battles is a good idea.
643106
no, you have a good point.
sadly, all i can do is go by the honor system.
I dont see how a voting system can be used in this situation without the risk of trolling. I wouldnt look into making chapters like these. Just keep it like the real rap battles and let each person decide on thier own who won.
643151
...i guess i could do that.
i'll leave this one up, though. i think dashie needs the closure.
643127
I never reconsider! Mr. ThArcanist
Miss rarity is the greatest
Though now I do want to see
A rap battle with zecora and daisy
I think that this is neat, gives a nice side story to after what happened. (I was wondering!) I personally say that even with the honor system voting, it's that same on youtube, who gives a flank? Just 'cuz it ain't honest (that is, when it isn't) doesn't mean it has ta ruin the good 'ol fun in the after toll rap battle summaries!
If you're not happy with the summary, then make up your own or maybe you can have two versions if you're up for it. -shrugs-
Rap battle between Vinyl herself and somepony... like Octavia or something. I don't know. I'm tired, I'm going to bed.
Wow, these are great. I think it'd be pretty cool if you did this for each one. And for the next one, can it be Fluttershy tearing Prince Blueblood a new one?
643057 We're bronies. Of anyone on the internet, we should be the easiest to trust to not abuse it.
643258
dear celestia, you've found out the next battle!
this is a good idea. one tinsy winsy little problem though. the wiki (yes there is one amazing right?) says her magic is magenta colored. twilights is whos magic ima talkin about.
643106 yea bronies dont abuse the internet like that. buy the way, this all for fun and games, no one would cheat for something as trivial as this. so dont worry
643474
fixed.
643487 dont be embarrassed! im color blind,(as in i confuse certain colors like red and orange) so i thought Twilights magic was purple at first, but when i went to the wiki to confirm it, it said magenta.
643385>>643483
Very well, I'll give you the benefit of the doubt for now.
I, for one, think that these epilogues are a brilliant idea. They help to turn these rap battles into a proper short story in themselves, as well as giving a level of closure that ERB itself never gave. It always slightly irked me that they ask "who won?" and then never acted on it. dl.dropbox.com/u/31471793/FiMFiction/emoticons/sillyfilly_Rarity.png
I seriously doubt that anybody might be enthused enough to set up a second account just to vote on the outcome of a rap battle. It seems a pointlessly long task. dl.dropbox.com/u/31471793/FiMFiction/emoticons/shrug_Twilight_Sparkle.png (Ha ha, thanks for pointing out where to find these awesome emoticons.) dl.dropbox.com/u/31471793/FiMFiction/Sweetie_Belle_lolface.png

thank you for that. dl.dropbox.com/u/31471793/FiMFiction/emoticons/misc_Fluttershy.png
you're right. that does sound silly!
and you're welcome.
i'll probably do these for a bit while i write up the next rap thing. it is going to be...
dl.dropbox.com/u/31471793/FiMFiction/emoticons/misc_Vinyl_Scratch.png
fun...ny.
darn it, why doesn't that work for me?
i wamma see iron will come and challange fluttershy for her bits
Well well well.
639479
Well, your mouth sure is agile.
But deep down I know you're very fragile!
You said enough, now you'll be treated rough.
You'll find after this, breathing will be tough!
I think you're weak as a dove.
I mean, really, beaten by the power of LOVE?
I think after this, I'll go give some stranglings
To those annoying ass minions you call Changelings!
I reall thought Twilight would win... Either way, awesome job. These things make me laugh so hard. But uh, I kinda wanna see FlutterShy Vs. Iron Will, and Octavia Vs. Vinyl Scratch. But I love this stuff! Keep it up. :3
Woohoo! Dash won
Doing this after the battles can be a good thing...but it can backfire.
646453
i don't quite follow.
...care to elaborate, please?
vs
647720
I meant mentioning a winner. Some people might be very displeased that the character they chose didn't win
I personally have no problem with it, but some people tend to OVEREACT
moar. with fluttershy. please?
645237You think all I do is stand here and feel my nuts,
Well I'm-a show you what, you gon' feel my rush,
You dont feel it, then it must be too real to touch,
Peel the Dutch, I'm about to tear shit up
Goosebumps, yeah, I'm-a make your hair sit up
Yeah sit up, I'm-a tell you who I be
I'm-a make you hate me, 'cause you ain't me
You ain't, it ain't too late to finally see
What you closed-minded fucktard were too blind to see
Whoever finds me's gonna get a finder's fee
Out this world, ain't no one out they mind as me
You need peace of mind? Heres a piece of mine,
I just gotta beat this clock
fuck this clock, I'm-a make ya eat this watch,
Don't believe me? Watch, I'm-a win this race,
and I'm-a come back and rub my shit in your face, bitch!

What the hell?
Your name certainly doesn't ring a bell!
Why would you play with your balls,
While I'm making my own waterfalls?
Your language is bad,
Your appearance isn't a fad!
But what the fuck's up with your coat?
Did you get hit by a boat?
Oh, WAIT! On your ass, your cutie mark tells,
Your flanks are the true re-bells!
You know, you really are a nutcase,
perhaps I should help Pinkamena,
and make
SOME
CUPCAKES!
666560 MrWhatnow, they didn't win. I just posted again. And I know Queen Chrysalis vs. Discord would be awesome, that's why I started it, but I didn't get a reply from the good Queen.
668740 My cutie marks a fucking shank,
so watch what you say if you want to keep your flank, skank,
Haha, look hes screaming, he's paranoid!
Quickly get ya ass another steroid!
Want me to flip it, I can rip it any style you want
I'm-a switch hitter bitch, GreyHeart ain't a quitter
I'm-a sit it here 'til I get enough of me to finally hitter,
a fucking boiling point, put some oil on your joints,
flip the coin bitch, come get destroyed,
Ma mane may not look like a colt,
Piss me off to watch my anger revolt,
Come on, I ain't goona grind to a halt,
Nice reference to Turnabout Storm. I still wonder what those photos were... wait what are these-
669129Greyheart, you never give up, do you? dl.dropbox.com/u/31471793/FiMFiction/emoticons/sillyfilly_Fluttershy.png
Wow, such a foalish colt!
Do you really think I care about your suicidal revolt?
Now listen here, young dolt!
I give the stranglings
to the changelings,
What else would I do,
That you can't help but believe it is true?
WOOHOO!
I'll put you under arrest,
stick you in a real tight vest,
Let me tell you, young one, you are one of the thousands of fools I so detest!
However, do you wish to know what I have done with the rest?
I didn't think so, that much you already know!
So why don't you run away like a cowardly doe?
639987 Thanks, enigma, for your suggestion as a come-back...but I don't think I'd be able to use it, since you just did...sorry. I hope you like where it's going so far! dl.dropbox.com/u/31471793/FiMFiction/emoticons/misc_Rainbow_dealwithit.png

BULLSH TWILIGHT WON
Oh and an aftermarh chapter for each battle would be appreciated
Suck it egghead!!!
Damn I got here way to late I would of voted for twilight.
gah, If only I saw this earlier, could have gotten Twilight Sparkle to win :(
Well, nicely done, and quite as funny as the actually ones.
