    READ THIS DESCRIPTION. ALL OF IT.

    [2nd-Person Fic starring you and Rainbow Dash]

    Having turned away from the spotlight, you preferred to distance yourself from fame and popularity. Instead, you chose to live a simple life away from the crowds and fortune. But when you meet a multicolored mare with an unusual request, can you find it in yourself to go for the gold again?

    A/N: Okay, this is going to make very little sense at first, but just bear with me.

    So I've been playing a ton of Kid Icarus: Uprising lately. It is hella fun, and Sakurai did an amazing job at revitalizing the series. It has easily stolen the spot of "favorite 3DS title" in my heart, and I can't put it down.

    So you're probably wondering, "what does Kody's videogame preferences have anything to do with a romance story involving Rainbow Dash?" Well, everything, actually.

    A friend of mine noticed my new addiction to this title. He knows I write about ponies, and as such, he jokingly made a bet with me saying that I should write a story in which I use music from said game in every chapter. I shrugged it off and ignored it at first, but I went and started to listen to the soundtrack. Somehow, I developed a plan and storyline from doing so. Now, this story won't reflect the events or storyline from this title. It is entirely original.

    The rules I was given are simple:

    1. The music must come from Kid Icarus: Uprising.

    2. At least one song must be used in each chapter. More than one song is viable.

    3. The same song may not be used more than once.

    4. Remixes or fan-made renditions of songs are not allowed.

    5. The song must be used in a way that enhances the reading experience. I can't just toss a song in and say 'mission accomplished.' It must complement the events and make sense.

    Now, I know what you are thinking, and yes. This is really weird. But hey, it worked, and this story was born as a result.

    EDIT: It has been brought to my attention that some of the songs used in the story are blocked in certain countries. As much as I would love to get this fixed, I'm afraid I don't have much of a way around this. If this affects you, I apologize deeply.

    This is how it works. When you get to a bit of blue text such as this, that's a link to the song. Open it in a new tab and continue reading as the music plays. Simple. When you get to some red, underlined text, that is the cue to stop the music. Sometimes, that cue may not be there, and the song is meant to play until the end of the chapter. Songs don't carry over to other chapters, however.

    The music is not required for the reading experience. It is entirely optional. Well, for you it is.

    I hope you enjoy my nerd-ery!

    Very interesting. I like the fact that you indicate where the music should be stopped, I hate it when authors add music but don't do anything else regarding it. Anyway, I like the story so far, and can't wait for more.

    I personally prefer second-pony stories to others, if only because of their unique challenges and such.

    The music is actually a very nice and satisfying touch. I'm not gonna lie, I was rather doubtful the idea would work, but it seems to me that you've got it so far. But tell me -- if you successfully win this bet, what is your friend going to do in return? Pay you money, watch ponies, what?

    Oh yeah and noob question. How do you track stories? is it by favouriting them? :derpytongue2:

    #28 · Chapter 1 · 45w, 4d ago · · ·
    Reply 

    >>882595

    Yes, by favoriting stories it also kind of "invisibly" tracks them. That number next to the star on your favorites icon shows how many unread chapters of favorite stories you have left.

    You know, the music-within-stories idea can actually work spectacularly; if you haven't given it a look, Sweetie's Mansion (http://www.fimfiction.net/story/7526/Sweetie%27s-Mansion) also utilizes soundtracks from the game it's crossed-over with. Definitely worth a read.

    I love your writing style and can't wait to read more of the story! :yay:

    ...Wow, I'm liking this music idea way more than I thought I would. It certainly adds a unique flavor to it, that's for sure.

    Well, it seems our protagonist had a friend who got drunk and blinded by fame.

    The music really does enhance the reading!   A great story regardless

    It reads "He acts like he's better than everyone else."

    Shouldn't it be "everypony" instead?

    Music really added to the mood of the story.  Makes it a very immersive story as it has both misic and is second person narrative.

    Again with the "everyone".  Not trying to sound angry or anything but I tend to read the mane 6's dialogue in their voices and that sort of kills it for me.

    Anyway, still a great story.

    Wow, I'm impressed! I usually dot like second person fics. When the author says, "You did this," I can't help but think, "No I didn't!" But I really liked this. The action was gripping, very descriptive, and the jokes were genuinely funny. Though, the "20% cooler" meme broke the immersion for me. Not your fault, it's just been done to death. Though if you had used the "10 seconds flat" with it, I'd have had to reach into my computer and slap you. :pinkiehappy:
