Europa


I am best moon. Suck it, Titan.

When Princess Luna created the Tantabus years ago, she had no idea what she was truly creating. She created an intelligent creature, fully sapient. The Tantabus has wants and desires, hopes and dreams, fears and worries.

But it does not think like we do. It never did, and it never will.

It is fully aware, with the exact same feelings as we do, and we will never understand it.

Poor little A.I., just following its directive.

You are very welcome it was nice to see such a possible viewpoint from Tantabus. The fave is well earned ^^

Absolutely amazing as always. :twilightsmile:

Amazing. Simply amazing.:twilightsmile:

"It is fully aware, with the exact same feelings as we do"
Was that "do" meant to be "have"? (This is in the description.)

Yeah, the whole "I have the base drives you gave me, not necessarily the base drives you wanted to give me" thing has enough ways to go wrong when the desired function isn't causing suffering. When it is, well...

"only through it came secondary"
"through them came"?

And what a shock to see a story like this from you. :)

Aye.

Dude, how do you write such an amazing story in not even two days? Since the episode aired I've written like 500 words in my story and had to dissect that for numerous grammar and continuity errors.

This was amazing. Tantabus' point of view was brilliant. I loved it. It was really great.

Kewl! I have nothing constructive to say!

Whoa, that was dark and pretty dang creepy. I loved it!

Competent.

You made quite the interesting character out of a something that wasn't really even a character in the first place. Nice work.

Go Tantabus! Wait it failed? All its hard work gone to waste.

Well, that was certainly a trip and unique insight into the frankly alien mind of the Tantabus. The way you characterized it is, in my personal opinion, chilling; a being whose only desire is to spread horror. The comment about it being willing to destroy itself if that would bring about enough horror really got to me.

Not bad at all. This served as a quaint little romp during my reading spree.

Funny how you can make a goal like "shroud the universe in horror" almost sympathetic with the right writing.

There is a tag for the Tantabus now.
