They say fear and negativity lingers in the blood.
They say it spoils the meat.

For a Siren, nothing could be better.

You'd better be planning a follow-up to this one, Syeek. I'll wait. It's fine.

O_O

So, Sonata is a killer. Never would have guessed. :twilightoops:


Have a like:twilightsmile:

7112911 I don't think heads work like that.


7112913 Whoda thunkit?:derpytongue2:

7112936

I think it was very interesting, although I really want to know the backstory of her actions:rainbowderp:

7112942 She was just having a bad night.

:7112944
Oh.
Welp, that's good enough for me:pinkiecrazy:

Yesssssssssssssssssssss. I like this Sonata. I need more.

7112988 I actually thought you'd like this one.:twilightblush:

Well that happened. At least Sonata got that stress of her chest, before it went off on the wrong person.

Nice job.:derpytongue2:

7113001 I'm pretty sure the object of her stress didn't think it was the right person.:trollestia:

7113004 I don't think she'd care. It probably wouldn't have made a difference to her.:rainbowkiss:

7113009 You're probably right about that.

Just because the remote connection's broken doesn't mean you can't plug it in physically.

Glib phrasing aside, this ended on a genuinely terrifying note. Nice work.

7113033 Thank you.

The funny thing is, I don't find it particularly terrifying because I wrote it. I'll probably reread it again like three weeks later and go "HOLY SHIT WHAT THE FUCK DID I WRITE" which is what tends to happen whenever I write darkfics.

"And that's how we became vampires!"

:rainbowhuh:

:facehoof:

Sunset Shimmer: I'll get my chainsaw.

I'm looking forward to where this goes next. Crazy yandaree killers, here we come (and I couldn't be happier)!:pinkiehappy:

What the fuck, Syeekoh?!

7113121 We'll see what happens with this.


7113124 That's a new one.

...And that's how Serial Killer Sonata was made.

7113144

We'll see what happens with this.

There better be some "Dexter" level of awesome in store. There is just too much gold there not to use.

I've just realised that this reminds me of the movie Limitless in a way. o.O

7113299 It didn't occur to me at the time, but... yeah, it does.

Goddamn... I don't suppose we can get more of this? :pinkiehappy:

7114063 I didn't realize this depiction would be so popular.

You can try to take away its power, but you will never stop the monster from being what it is.

7114155 That's actually very true on several levels.

7113068

Magic of Friendship, you done screwed up bigtime.

Oh man, this was really good. An excellent idea, well written. I instantly want more, though while I might hope for a sequel where this is expanded upon, I totally get why you wouldn't do it if that's not where inspiration takes you but seriously I'd read an entire long-form story on this in a heartbeat

Brutal

This reads like the start of a new dark series.

You get a like.

I didn't know that the Sirens could be humanitarians.

And it was at that very moment that Sonata learned that people are actually filled with raspberry jam. Which is delicious.

Have a thumbs up!

Goddammit, Majin. :facehoof:

Sonata as a killer...interesting twist.

And on this day psycho Sonata was born. True terror of the world, someone who can be completely innocent and sweet one second, then murder anyone who gets in her way the next.

One issue: Every single ATM on the outside of a building has a security camera.

Just saying.

7117415 I'm pretty sure that didn't occur to the siren who was too dumb to keep her phone charged and I don't believe the other guy really cares.

FOR ONCE, MAKE A SEQUEL FOR YOUR STORY, PLEASE!

Is it wrong that I kind of admire Sonata for being able to react that way in that situation? Sure, death happened, but perhaps in some way a better reaction than pussing out, which pretty much all of us would do.

Excellent. But then, I've come to expect no less.

Incidentally, you're not the only one who has a "What the fuck did I write?" reaction upon revisiting old work. One time I looked at some comic strips I did back in my school days (>10 years ago), and was shocked at how cynical they are.

Then I start railing on myself because I can't get back into that mindset, since I'm not the same person as back then, but the old stuff just feels more "real" and thus "better" than anything I try today.

Something I really love is when writers known for lolrandom comedies apply themselves and come up with something really worthwhile. And this is one of those instances.

7120149 ...that's a pretty tall compliment.

Thanks.:twilightblush:

And if you do, just continue it as part of this story. Keep it all together, ya know? Never liked when people do "sequels" to one-shots that are really just continuations.
But if there was a sequel, there wouldn't be too many places it could go after she told the other sirens about her discovery besides the three of them becoming vampiric serial-killers. And while it would be nice to see how they would channel this magic now without singing, I can't imagine this becoming much more than a HuMane6 snuff story, because really, how well could a group of innocent, teenage girls survive serious attempts on their lives when Sonata is this sociologically violent? She beat a stranger to death for trying to mug her, imagine what she'd do to those who stole her precious voice?
Without the ability to enslave the masses as a grand scheme to built up to and having every reason to get revenge on the ones who stopped this plan in the first place, I can't see the sirens not deciding to pick off the girls one by one and torturing them to death. And once you get one, the others are pretty much useless.

Amen to all of this
I dont know if this related to this at all, but I like to imagine that each Sirens had their own reasoning to continue and become attached to their old way of life, even when they are transported into another world
>Adagio do it because she thinks its their nature
>Aria do it because she thinks its more easy/convenient
>Sonata do it for fun

So Sonata can now get her fix using death's blood...

That's not a good thing.:twilightoops:



Nice story, here, have a reading of it.

7131564 Thank you!

...and not good for who?:trollestia:

7131590 No good in general.

The implications of this the way I see it is that the Sirens instead of adapting and getting used to living without their drug they find what is possibly an even more unhealthy replacement.

Now instead of manipulating the emotions of many around them to get their fix they will deal with their addiction by getting it from the blood of people they killed in emotionally strainful ways.

A lot of people will likely die and their new addiction will no doubt be a detriment to the Dazzlings already fragile mental health.

Everyone Lost.

The End.

7131622 I could see that. Let the bodies hit the floor, I say!

I'm just hung up on why people seem to think Sonata will tell the other Dazzlings about this.

Especially this Sonata in particular.

7131632 Well, she doesn't have to tell them.

But I have a hard time accepting that they would never find out one way or another. I mean Sonata here doesn't seem cunning enough to keep it a secret from them, and really I see no reason she would have to. Even if she don't tell them right away out of spite, presumably it hasn't been too long since the battle of the bands before she discovered it. It's just a matter of time before the others will also as far as I'm concerned.

And then it's all down the hill from there.
