This story is a sequel to Bow Blade and Bow


Sweetie Belle, Dinky, and a few other unicorn fillies are ready to embark on a big milestone in unicorn life, taking The Standard Unicorn Magic Exam. With test giver Twilight, several unique magics floating around, and the general rule of Equestria being that nothing can simply remain mundane it will prove to be a most interesting test.

Liking it!! Am I correct in thinking that this is the sister that does hypnotism as well?

Yup you are correct

You'd think that being an alicorn would give her an edge over filly magic...

Poor showing Twilight.

All will be explained. Don't worry.

7286790

Huh what do you mean?

7287253
Let herself be caught like that, you can fricken teleport.

This is why vinyl wears shades. Everybody knows a good pair of shades blocks all mind magic

7287335

Good point but I figure it was a mixture of her mind being both on the collapsed Blissful Trance and shock over the appearance of the orb/spiral that allowed her to forget that detail.

7287672

Heh Vinyl's a member of the PIB (Ponies in Black) ^_^

liking this one :D although it appears that blissful trance (or rather, her orb) is now in control of the entire exam!!!

7298466

Glad you're liking it
Yeah she kind of has a bit of an unfair advantage.

With a name like that, you automatically know what's up. With a name like Shulk it could be anything. Actually, now that I think about it, Equestria must be the easiest place to know what jobs/hobbies people have.

This is why I stay inside while crap happens in Ponyville.

7308171

You have a very valid point.

Also when I was thinking up her name I felt this would be a good option since not only does it convey hypnosis but also keeps a music esque name for her to go along with being vinyl's sister what with trance music and all.

Blissful Trance is so lucky there isn´t a White Council in Equestria, for otherwise... :twilightoops:

7312437


I'm not familiar with that, but I'll take your word for it.

7312483

I take you never heard about Harry Dresden before.

7312496

Nope can't say that I can.

...remind me to "dispose" of Golden Fleece later.

that was fun. Was the book GF (kind of obvious who that's supposed to be) took one of the ones Spike marked out? Something tells me she's somewhat more trouble than she's worth and also possibly a bad filly(ish)? Also, nice hypno session for Blissful Trance and Sweetie, though with Dinky having been hypnotised before, how come she didn't remember it and Sweetie did (albeit vaguely)?

Also, are you basing the shadow realm off somewhere in particular, like the world you get in Lotr when Frodo puts on Sauron's ring? It's a lot of questions, I know...

Finally, the next bit, is it going to be like a D&D adventure-esque bit? That would be SO COOL!!!!

7313263

Sweetie Belle just won the coin toss as far as who may have had the barest hint of the sensation of a previous hypnosis moment.

Glad you like Blissful and Sweetie Belle's session.

Yup that was not a marked book she chose.

Chapter 4 wellllll. You'll just have to wait and see ^_^

Welp, this was awesome. And hey, I don't have to dispose of Golden Fleece, it was a changeling.

7318800

Thanks so much. Glad you enjoyed it.

Yup now you get to go buy a blanket from her on the way to dispose of Vespa ^_^

7318960 Who in the name of Homestar's non-existant arms is Vespa?

7319042

That was the changeling's name ^_^

7319169 Well Vespa's in jail, so I don't have to do that. But there's someone else in another story I'm gonna have to deal with. It's another story of yours, if you catch my drift.

7319366

Hmmm might you be referring to everyone's favorite psycholigist unicorn who has a knack for swinging her pocket watch ;)

7319387 To put it in Strong Bad's words when his computer got 400,000 viruses: Yes. Very yes.

Yey I'm not prepared for the existence of a diamond tiara that has unicorn magic, that would be one bad combo

Great story

7320606

You speak the truth.

Glad you enjoyed it.

That was fun, although I wonder what would happen if Blissful Trance met Spiral Swirl? hmmm.....

The dream world was fun, I liked GF being a changeling. Also, the others should so go on a D&D style adventure :D

7321880

Well given their abilities the fillies were almost a RPG party.

Glad you liked my dream world stuff and the twist :)

7322746

Let me see, we have the ranger (Dinky), healer (Healing touch), ninja/rogue (Ebony darkness) and general all rounder (Sweetie Belle). I feel like there's possibly one party member missing...

7323106


Don't forget Blissful Trance.
She can take control/put enemies to sleep and boost the other's stats with hypnotherapy.

7323237

She's so quiet I don't blame you ^_^

7376008

Oh come on! There's crazier stuff out there then that
^_^

7376080
there needs to be a sequel. Ebony has such interesting magic and I can only imagine the hijinks the fillys (especially scootaloo) can get into with Blissful trance's Magic :rainbowlaugh:

7376430

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it so much

Yup I should revisit these crazy kids again someday :)

Huh. Bliss seems like she'll mess things up in an interesting way.

Only problem I have is with formatting, others usually double space their lines?

Okay... This just slammed a ton of worldbuilding, that I was not expecting, with levels of spells, and so many different kinds of spellcraft, which was a bit too sudden for me, as the previous chapter didn't clue me in that so much is different from base MLP: FiM.

Perhaps I should have read the prequel before reading this.

Also, there a few typos not just these ones, and a few instances of double spacing between words...

to awesome

too awesome

“Hi, I’m Healing Touch”

Need ending punctuation there...

7769877


Glad you enjoyed the story so much.


Yeah I kinda had a big world building kinda scenario in my head here XD



And thanks for letting me know. I tend to double or even triple check things but little things like that always seem to slip by.

Aparently no-one else have felt like pointing out the monty python and the holy grail reference,(hint: question number 3 on the cover) thats actually why I read the story in the first place,

btw the answer for 3 is; dependent on the type, african or european,

Heh glad you caught that and it's what drew you in :)

Baldi’s basics scraped characters
PENCIL BOY
While developing the Game Jam edition before the full game, there is a scrapped character referred to as "Pencil Boy", described as a little kid who would have come towards and stabbed the Player with pencils. If the Principal saw this happening, then he'd be brought to detention, evidenced by his unused quote "No stabbing people with pencils in the halls". This is based on when mystman12 (the creator of Baldi’s Basics) was being stabbed by a kid with a pencil at a dentist waiting room when he was young, and due to his mother's absence at the time, no one did anything about it.

I thought about this when I read “giant pencil”.
