Just a nice, polite Canadian.

For the first time in over a year, Princess Flurry Heart is left alone, creating the perfect opportunity for any ol' villain to come and take her away.

Those poor bastards.

I'm already rooting for Chrysalis XD

:rainbowlaugh: Let's now have a fic about Sombra babysitting!

don't worry sombra! you still have a chance, you just need to win the equestrian lottery and get hit by lightning and get twilight to edit your fanfics!

That first blast of pure screaming child collided with all four villains like a tidal wave, denting walls and creatures alike. Soon the white tiles along the floor began to change color and shake—some even projecting images from far-off, undiscovered lands. A few of them wholly on fire. One of the extra chairs in the room burst into white sugar, while another collapsed to the floor after being turned into a giant mound of butterscotch pudding.

Soon small pockets of the floor turned to quicksand. Or to lava. Or to both.
The wallpaper encircling the nursery came loose off the wall and grew both a tongue and two narrow eye-slits. It slithered around the crumbling room like a snake only a millimeter-thick.

whose a cute little world ender you are, yes you are :pinkiecrazy:

I'd be game for seeing a Sombra babysitting fic.

Heh. Not the first fic I've seen with this basic concept in mind.
I can't wait to see canon Flurry chew up a villain :pinkiehappy:

When it is? 8 P.M. until 2 A.M. Or until Princess Luna shuts it down for keeping her up!

But Luna's nocturnal! She doesn't sleep at night!
Okay, now to read the rest of the story ...

That was ridiculous! And very funny! I like these kinds of comedy stories, where they're partially in and partially out of character, enough that you can play with their personalities and their unique idiosyncrasies, but make them act sillier than they normally would. Discord, of course, was completely on point; he's at home in random things. Stories like these really loosen me up, and I start thinking of alternate punchlines and character gags, more than you could really fit in there, and that's saying a lot because I'm normally too tightly wound to think of jokes.

And why is sweet, pitiable Sombra such a happiness button for me? I don't know, but more of woobie Sombra, please!

“My personal space is being invaded and I don’t like it!”

D'aaaawww! :rainbowkiss:

Getting Twilight to edit stuff is easy. It's the lottery he's got to worry about! That thing is rigged! In Pinkie's favor! AND SHE NEVER BUYS A LOTTERY TICKET!

Why would Tirekl need more than a night of two since all he wants to do is suck Flurry of all her magic. Of course his goal and Chystalis's aren't exclusive to the point they couldn't do both provided they survive the attempt

7792644
Yes, YES, YAAASS!
I support this idea fully! :pinkiehappy:

that dante's inferno reference told me that this wasn't just going on my goodfics bin, it was going on my favorites too

This is so funny! Thank you for writing this! And I don't get what Tierk did.

I really enjoyed this one thanks for the laughs. :rainbowlaugh:

This of course happened before the season ender and the Changelings gaining Super Kidnapping Powers. :pinkiesick: :raritydespair: :facehoof:

Shining frowned. “Like one out of a million.”

Surprisingly, Sombra smiled at that. “So you’re telling me there’s a chance?”

Well, to be fair they DID have a magic-nullifying throne on their side...

7792733
He only gave Discord one day of the week with Flurry!

7793057 Was that really it? Just the one day thing?

Ah... The Ransom of Red Chief has been rediscovered...

7792968

That only works if their kidnap victims were polite enough to come to their fortress to be kidnapped. Or are you suggesting they dragged that forty-ton throne with them to Canterlot, Ponyville, and the Crystal Empire to carry out their kidnappings?

7793155
...huh, you do have a point. Why do the writers keep on portraying the royals as incompetent, then? Seriously, why doesn't someone ask them point-blank at the next con or something?

7793162
Well, the Powers That Be have decided, apparently, that the Ponies must face some Dire Equestria Dooming Menace at least once a season. Worfing the Princesses provides several useful functions:

1. Establishes the seriousness of the threat (a)
2. Allows secondary characters a chance to shine (heck, this last season ender everyone took a dive so the C Team could save the day)
3. Saves the writers the trouble of thinking of something for the Princesses to do (if not always as blatantly as having Luna sleep through the first Changeling invasion).

Personally I am quite saddened by their taking Celestia (b)- which should be a badass character, and still is, in a lot of fanfic, - and reducing her to the point where she's practically a stuffed plushie, but given the show format, it may have been inevitable.


(a) But decreasingly so with time, as it begins to look as if the Princesses could be taken down by a determined group of boyscouts armed with Nerf bats
(b) And Luna, to a lesser extent - at least she still gets to be cool in the land of dreams

7793281
Well, if the Powers That Be ever attend a con, why can't the fans ever confront them about it to their faces?

7793293

Well, I'm not saying annoyed fans shouldn't try. But it's unlikely to change things, and this is, after all, my personal opinion on the subject: many fans will no doubt disagree with me, some of them with anger, and won't be pleased with other fans bugging the artists and writers over what they consider largely or entirely a non-issue. :fluttershysad:

7793340

The fact they consider it a non-issue is an issue. Unfortunately, being pushy about it is toxicity itself, and they won't listen to anything less than that or if a huge number of people speak out against it and it can affect popularity/sales.

As long as it was mostly Celestia being Worfed, no large number of people even cared. We few loyal Solars get attacked by Luna-fanatics when we try to say something positive about her or complain that her current Worf state doesn't match up with the story told so far, so of course the staff's certainly not going to listen.

That said, no one will listen because the princesses are side characters and thus easy to manipulate to aid in a 22-minute narrative based on the main characters. The only reason Luna even gets as much hyper and screentime and dedicated episodes as she has is the sheer number of lunatics.

I do wonder about the author's comment regarding sneaky Tirek. Nightmare Night or something? We don't know that's on a sunday, right?

Reading this and seeing who wrote it has reminded me of something, When is the next chapter of Bad Dude coming out?! It's been over 5 MONTHS!

SRY

“You, uhh—oh, Celestia, please forgive me—you smell bad and nobody likes you! And you’re not as cute as most ponies say! I called you cute as a button once, but what I meant was cute as a button found seventy-five percent off at a thrift store!”

Flurry Heart’s original smile vanished and was replaced by one of infinite sadness. She spat out Tirek’s thumb as her lower lip jutted out. Soon her eyes shimmered.

“And why is your head so much bigger than the rest of your body? You’re like eighty percent head!” Sunburst ended his brief rant, wiping away tears of his own. He regretfully told the rest of them, “Again, I’m soooooo sorry about all this.”

I ended up reading this in Bill Murray's voice.

Flurry Heart is finally left alone, leaving the villains of Equestria the chance to come and take her away. Those poor bastards.

You sir, get a Like and added to the bookshelf, just for that with that Picture on the front page.

This is a very good one-shot.

Ok not gonna lie i started laughing when i read.

“Please, Chrysalis,” he said. “What are your hooves even made of? Hardened plastic? The black licorice bits leftover at the bottom of bulk bins?”

And then this.

Inside her crib, Flurry Heart blinked and stared upward, a faint smile on her lips at seeing her guardian in such a strange place.

“You, uhh—oh, Celestia, please forgive me—you smell bad and nobody likes you! And you’re not as cute as most ponies say! I called you cute as a button once, but what I meant was cute as a button found seventy-five percent off at a thrift store!”

Aww dang!

I was hoping to tell the Ranson of Redchief..

:rainbowlaugh::rainbowlaugh::rainbowlaugh::rainbowlaugh:

“Peek-a-boo!” Tirek added to his act. “Peek-a-boo! Where did Tirek go? Where did—”

There was a loud snap in the room, along with the smell of burnt toast. Tirek’s empty cloak crumbled to the floor. There was no sign of the centaur anywhere.

Another sharp snap and a swirling red portal opened up on the ceiling near the door. Tirek then exited it headfirst, leaving him sprawled out and twitching on the ground.

His eyes opened wide, showcasing pupils the size of pinpricks. “I saw a great lake of ice… with ponies half-frozen within! A three-faced demon told me the fates of all traitors once they cease to exist!”

Nice reference :pinkiehappy:

“You, uhh—oh, Celestia, please forgive me—you smell bad and nobody likes you! And you’re not as cute as most ponies say! I called you cute as a button once, but what I meant was cute as a button found seventy-five percent off at a thrift store!”

Flurry Heart’s original smile vanished and was replaced by one of infinite sadness. She spat out Tirek’s thumb as her lower lip jutted out. Soon her eyes shimmered.

:fluttercry::pinkiesad2: Nay, even if you were just acting, your soul will be scorched by Celestia's sun for the rest of eternity for saying those mean things to our beloved diabetes-inducing overlord.

Sombra for best baby sitter!

Sigh, Tirek could very well absorb the extra magic, not to say the revenge the villains could do to Cadance and the others.

This is both funny and cute at the same time.

Holy yes. Hilarious

I smiled, cute story, and the only time I have found myself wanting to see more of Sombra.

I want to see a sequel about Sombra babysitting.

after seeing the intro and a comment or two, I couldn't resist:

This little filly-
cdn-img.fimfiction.net/story/ugs2-1480783843-356092-full
-is the destroyer of worlds.

Sombra for Babysitter Of The Year Award!

Maybe it IS toxic, but honestly, those a:yay::yay::yay::yay::yay::yay:s at Hasbro have their heads shoved so far up their asses (see what happened to Jan Animations, which I STILL Think they should be punched in the mouth for) that confronting them directly is really the ONLY way one can make any headway. As the Ghost of Christmas Present said in Bill Murray's "Scrooged" (paraphrasing here), sometimes ya gotta hit people in the face with it. And in regards to messes like what happened with Jan...why can't they just say "screw you" to them and their C&D orders and keep on doing what they're doing? Nothing's gonna change if no one stands up to them....

Excellent one-shot.

Shining thought on that. “Well, Discord’s just a dick.”

Let's all hope that Discord never hears this, for one can only imagine the horror of him taking this phrase literally...

Greedy Sombra. I probably would've done the same though if I could get Flurry Heary.

I thought of Lavos in Chrono Trigger at this part.

Everyone was so hilarious in this story. That, and I liked Discord's subtle grudge against Tirek :rainbowlaugh:

Because if you don't knuckle under to a C&D then you get a subpoena and have to show up in court. It's dangerous trying to act like a C&D is a bluff.
