Wonderfully alliterative title Justice, keep it up and I'm going to start calling you V.

The purple pony princess pondered her current predicament.

Ah, Luna's blue... very blue. May I suggest Persian?

Ok, "Do you want to build a snow Yak?" had me howling, good job Justice.

Glad you liked it and thanks for the suggestion. :pinkiehappy: The artist has her as purple up there, but maybe that's just the lighting or he was going for season 1 coloring? Either way, I changed that one line. :twilightsmile:

Delightfully convoluted shenanigans, author. Well done.

I question why twilight couldn't teleport them in the first place. Otherwise a great read.

7826875

She's never been shown to teleport from Ponyville to Canterlot despite the fact that both are in visual range of the other, so I'm thinking there must be some limitations on range.

Glad you enjoyed it. :pinkiehappy:

Fair enough. Though honestly I always put that in the "it makes to much sense and wraps to quickly" category as opposed to her not being capable now that she is an alicorn. Also is it wrong I really want to see what the triple dog dare was that lead to such.

The reference to Llamas with Hats had me in tears. Of course Carl Glimmer has thoughts like that.

Good to see Spike is following Sunset's example on how to handle Starlight. :moustache: Goading her is probably the best way to get anything done given Twilight's regular competency level ("Look! New words! :twilightsmile: "). Wonder if Twilight has already gotten desperate enough to read Rainbow Dash's Daring Do fanfics. And how much turkey has Sunset been eating? Helps that Starlight is concussed and can't aim properly (though Spike seems used to dodging things by now).

And Luna, there are some things ponies are not meant to know, and I think Pinkie falls under that category (particularly her dreams).

I've called them and they're on there way....err eventually...err maybe...err nevermind!?!:facehoof::rainbowlaugh:

Specifically, it was her tongue that was stuck to the metal pole which had a frozen grip on her appendage and was currently the receiver of all the anger she could muster with only her n. Alright, plot your vengeance later!

I'm not sure what this 'n.' means?

“GHAH!” Spike exclaimed as he jumped up and over the easychair he was sitting in. “DODGE!”

Starlight answers, "Why would Aquapony be driving a Dodge underwater?"

“Hey, I’m on my holiday vacation from using my magic fire breath for anything not related to reheated my own hot cocoa,”

reheating

Sitting in a large room and staring out at Princess Luna’s ears perked up to the sound of her own name being shouted long and hard

as

Spike shrugged his shoulders. “We would have been here sooner if Starlight wasn’t such a wiener.”

A modest blast of purple energy flew past Spike’s place with a ‘Phooom!’

“Dang it...” Starlight uttered.

“Oops, almost had me!” Spike said as he took a couple sidesteps to his left.

Starlight, "No I got you, just the wrong you!"
At this point my appreciation of Starlight has risen a couple notches and Twi & Spike decreased a couple. :trixieshiftright: All we need now is Celestia trying to lick some cake off a flag pole above a tower she was flying by and get stuck mid-flight to round this out.:trollestia:

No! Bad writer! I don't care how much you want to alliterate, 'persian' is not a valid color! Even 'Persian blue' is kind of a bullshit hue, it's just an allusion to lapis lazuli having traditionally come from Iran.

his magic fire breath and saved the maiden fair

So I see Spike's following in the footsteps of the great Brian Boitano

Because making Starlight angry never has negative consequences

Starlight thought about this for a moment. “I will settle for no longer having that dream with a pair of faceless ponies who I think are my parents and keep telling me ‘I must complete my work’ before encouraging me to make a chair out of all my friend’s faces.”
“Done,” Luna said.
“Starlight?!” Twilight exclaimed. “What the heck?!”
“What the hay do you want from me, Twilight? I’m a dangerous sociopath with a long history of violence!” Starlight retorted.
“… Oh.” Twilight replied.
“I don’t understand how you keep forgetting that.”

Someone has clearly been watching Llamas With Hats.

Got the errors. Thanks. :twilightsmile:

Grats on getting to the suggestion box.
Luna has to be licking a different kind of pole to get there as of late.

Funny. Two shorts with this picture are on Featured box right now.
By the way, this one is second((
I am sure that there are more, but they're just not so popular yet))

Still, here we have a dare and in other we have Luna's curiosity. And implied Twilight's, I think.

Honestly? Surprising as it is, at least several of featured stories are "that" mature every time I look at them. On the other hand, it is really mild compared to, say, Derpibooru : difference in "3-day top pictures" with Default and Everything filters is enormous. Sometimes makes me wonder where are the little girls MLP was targeting.

Man, people are sure making so many stories based on this picture. This is like 3rd time this week I find someone using that for their coverart.

Regardless, great job!

Spike, you are the most magnificent of bastards. You're amazing.

Mail by trebuchet! :pinkiehappy:

“Plus, we’d be introducing a foreign species’ customs from another dimension! I mean… how incredible would that be?!”

Spike was quick to answer, “Probably about as incredible as the complete meltdown Fluttershy would have when Discord tries to make her feel better by magically bringing the cooked turkey to life and doing a song and dance number with it?”

"I wanna BE! Your SLEDGEHAMMER!"

Spike let out a small harrumph of frustration then looked down at Starlight. He smiled. “I bet I know a pony who could do it.”

“Still suffering from a head injury, Spike,” Starlight said dryly.

“Sunset Shimmer!” Spike announced.

:rainbowlaugh: Nice callback!

Starlight’s head wobbled from side to side as she did her best to keep her wandering eyes focused on Spike. “Spike, what the heck did I do to deserve all this b-hole coming out of your mouth today?!”

I laughed way too hard at this line. :rainbowlaugh:

“Please don’t insult the princess by suggesting she can fix her problems through murder.”

“… You clearly can use more experience as a princess, Twilight Sparkle.”

"It's rather a lot like running a crystal meth empire."

“Hey!” Pinkie chimed in. “If it’s dreams we want to go away, I have this one where I invite Rainbow Dash over to make cupc—”

“The Princess of the Night is done with this!” announced Luna.

:rainbowlaugh::rainbowlaugh::rainbowlaugh:

“Yaks want to know if magic sun moving pony princess would like to build a snow-yak!”

OH MY GOD :rainbowlaugh:

A reference to the Goldbergs, I believe, at least the title.

TFW you write a story using this cover art on Christmas day, but don't want to post it until after New Years because most people will be spending time with their families, and then you see that two other people got featured using the same art at the same time.

Seriously, what are the chances of that?

I love that Sunset manages to be awesome in a story she doesn't appear in.

Cool. Better than mine for sure! Upvoted!

Ahh, shucks. Thank you. :pinkiehappy:

The persian-colored pony princess pondered her current predicament.

Surely that should have been her "present predicament"? Also, possibly "persian-pigmented pony princess", but that's probably stretching it a tad.

So, yeah, slight hiccup in the Alliteration, but the story has enough of Starlight suffering for me to forgive it.

What can I say? I'm a man of simple pleasures.

For a second there I thought Pinkie was in bed with Luna at the end and when she asks why she was there Pinkie was going to say that she decided to take the next step after the proposal...

The yaks are absolutely hilarious "villains". They just annoy the shit out of everyone and break stuff. And I love Pinkie Pie pretty much being a smaller, pinker Discord in this, with her "I dunno how I did it!!!" stuff.:twilightsheepish:

7828752

Glad you enjoyed it! :pinkiehappy:

Good call on that sentence. I went ahead and edited it! :raritywink: Thanks!

THE ALLITERATION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well I can't figure out why the youtube video isn't working. Whatever

To 7829284
You have a "m" in https://m.youtube, where its not supposed to be.

You've got the same cover as "She Should Have Known Better" I haven't read either yet, but presumably 2 takes on the same idea. "Comparisons are odious" (Christopher Marlowe) "...but inevitable" (Me) :pinkiehappy:

7829132 Clearly Luna never watched the "Christmas Story" before. The dunce. :rainbowlaugh:

Oh, Luna. You gone goofed.

“Wait a second! How come Aquapony can control whales? They’re mammals! Makes no sense…”

Nice reference ;) Anyway I loved this story! Really entertaining!

D is for daring, but also for dumb.

OMG i loved PPPHToaP-tP!!!! Cant wait to read this :pinkiehappy:

Excellence confirmed!
All expectations met!
A worthy successor to PPPHToaP-tP!
:pinkiehappy:

Fave lines:

"Horseleans will enduringly live on in our hearts… for it cannot possibly endure on elsewhere… "

"Are ye dense, madmare?!"

"I don’t think Twilight is capable of caring about anypony when she’s presented with something new to read."

"If you care about your sanity, Twilight. Then ‘no.’ No it didn’t happen.”

'Dear Sister, Big, hairy vengeance comes swiftly to punish you for your sins.’

And 'GlimGlam-trolling-Spike' is best Spike :moustache:

Also:

“Spike!” Twilight cried. “We need to help Princess Luna!”
Spike looked outside the broken window where the chilled air had already made its unwanted advancements into the warm, cozy room. “What, now?”
“Yes, now!” Twilight cried. She unfurled her wings. “Now climb on!”
“But it’s so cold outside and it’s going to take forever to fly to Canterlot!” Spike whined. “At least let me get a scarf or something!”
“There’s no time!” Twilight insisted.

Great story! And props on, Spike's, character!:moustache:

Ha! That's what you get for doing the deluxe double-dog dare on your own sister, Celestia! Seems like Luna really planned out her vengeance pretty well.

I feel sorry for Starlight, though. She got hit in the face by a brick and was constantly being harassed by Spike all the time, but she did manage to transport the whole group to specific locations using her teleportation spell though it was out of annoyance.

“What the hay do you want from me, Twilight? I’m a dangerous sociopath with a long history of violence!” Starlight retorted.
“… Oh.” Twilight replied.
“I don’t understand how you keep forgetting that.”
“Hey!” Pinkie chimed in. “If it’s dreams we want to go away, I have this one where I invite Rainbow Dash over to make cupc—”

:applejackunsure: Well that took a turn for the dark.

Charlie the Unicorn reference! I like it.

Her horn glowed purple as a shield began to manifest in between her and the brick that was crawling towards her at an alarmingly dangerous speed. The brick hit the shielding energy of her magic, causing the hastily made barrier to crack and break then fade away to naught but stardust. Starlight’s eyes widened further as the slowed brick continued its collision course for her face.

I wonder would brick smash her skull into pieces if Starlight wasn't (amazingly) quick enough to put the shield up. Kind of dark touch here.

“Are ye dense, madmare?!” Luna accused. “Would you drive us towards the path of destruction once more?!”

Celestia, I Deluxe Dodecaduple Dog Dare you to lick that pole.

Okay, that didn't sound dirty at all in my head. :facehoof:

“Since the shell we’ll all be riding in is powered by onboard gunpowder that continually burns and propels us forward, it’s really more akin to a rocket-launcher.

Needs an end “ mark.

Actually when it comes to her coat it’s more of a deep blue, although I usually go with indigo personally (which deep blue resembles a shade of Indigo).

You’re welcome.

Out of curiosity. How much would it cost to get a chronological time line commissioned? I’d love to keep a up and running timeline of the series and know what to read in order. Although having read all these today. I’m going to be re-starting MAD tomorrow morning when I wake up.

Indigo is indeed her coat colour, but it wouldn't have fit the alliteration scheme he was going for. Persian is a hue of blue, and close enough for purposes of literary hyperbole. I was mostly trying to help a friend. :twilightblush:
