Horrifically Fun

T

Love Tap has to have ‘the talk’ with her teenage son. Except it’s not about the birds and the bees. It’s much worse and much, MUCH more uncomfortable.

Not quite "gore" but contains talk about eating questionable content.

Part of the Love Call of the Sirens storyline.

"Thanks" to Mitch H for a little tidbit about horses. You guys can thank Majin Syeekoh for not writing his own take on the idea like we discussed. :ajbemused:

Words to describe what I read: 000

...I have no idea how to respond to this story. Like, at all.

A thought occurs that so far it's doing a great job of putting readers in Gibbson's (horse)shoes.

Not bad at all... but I think the occasion calls for Gilbert O'Sullivan's "Alone Again, Naturally" for that extra-special suicidal ideation.

“I DON’T KNOW! I GUESS I JUST ASSUMED IT WAS CODE FOR KETAMINE?!”

“… WHY WOULD YOU ASSUME I’M SCORING DRUGS AS PART OF MY MORNING COFFEE?! HOW ARE YOU MORE OKAY WITH THAT THAN THE REALITY?!”

I'm thinking drugs were involved here, but not necessarily with the characters.

alright... this was a thing I read.... yep...


I need mind bleach.

That was horrifyingly hilarious.

...
What did I just read?

.............why

"Now there where placenta sandwiches, placenta smoothies…”

It was at this point I asked myself: WHY AM I STILL READING THIS?!

Adagio motioned towards Gibson. “You two are breaking your son! And worse, you’re forcing me to be responsible, here!” she added as she held her forehooves in front of her dramatically.

I'd be appropriately more horrified by this revelation but........0_0 everything else is still too fresh in my mind.

This is like my blank thesaurus.

I have not the words to describe this.

snorts It's pronounced Button's Mom who's got it going on thank you very much. :moustache:

When the only other pony thinking like you is Sonata Dusk it's probably time to rethink your thoughts.

And I just want more. Seriously. I love this dysfunctional family.

WTF did I just read?

To quote Alucard from Hellsing Abridged:

... The fuck is this?
... THE FUCK'RE THOSE?
... THE FUCK'S THAT?!?

It's still kinda Halloween so allow me to scare people. There are some who eat their placenta. There are people who will tell you it's good for you.There aren't any health benefits of eating a placenta. Reality is far more bizarre and frightening than fiction. Happy Halloween.

It rather seems like this story was inspired by a conversation on FiMFiction's Discord server, I think #general, after I brought up a fact I'd stumbled across - and I can't remember if it was on my own, or if someone had mentioned it to me - that horses, mares, indeed, do eat their afterbirths for whatever reason. Recovery of nutrients, kick-starting milk production, hiding bloody evidence from sharp-nosed predators, who knows which is the actual reason: fact, horses eat placenta.

And folks immediately started talking about the bohemian-bourgeois cult of placenta-eating of the last two decades, mostly in places like Northern California and the more beatnik-urban parts of the Northeast. And someone, i can't remember if it was Justice or Majin, observed that a pumpkin spice placenta latte would be the most goddamn Things White People Like ever.

I thought I edited out the placenta thing from the story whose research had started all of this off, because my editors thought it was in poor taste. But last time I checked, it's still there; either I forgot to save the edit, or restored the line in a drunken blackout. Because damnit, I love the whole black humor aspect of ending a story with the grandmare from Tartarus barking at her 'daughter' "that placenta won't eat itself."

Justice, at what point do you actually stop and think about the words you're stringing together?

See! This is exactly what Love Tap was talking about!

How do you think of these things? I'm baffled. Almost as much as when I decided to keep reading this story after the first few paragraphs.

“So you know how it’s customary for mares to eat their placentas after giving birth, right?”

...

Just goin' right in there, huh? Well okay then.

“And this is why I don’t talk about my pumpkin spice placenta proclivities.”

Goddammit Syee--

*rechecks author*

...goddammit Justice.

“… Unless you dehydrate it and save it like a jerky…” Love Tap added.

I think we've hit an unsurpassable level of cringe here...

Well, there's a scientific explanation for where Justice gets material from! You see, when a werewolf pony is born, Luna tallies up the number of romantic entanglements that the timberwolves have to vie with in the coming years. For each of those marked, Celestia takes a lineup of appropriately chalked-down stallions to the supermarket for their sudden exposure to wailing foals as a means to produce vampires. If a sufficient number of outrageous vampire romance novels are made that year, Cadance is tasked with combing the frozen wastes for appropriate snowballs to create new crystal ponies from. After about a month of forging said crystal ponies, Twilight is given a reminder (via dragonflame to the face) to kick a poor author in the head.

Then Spike gives said author a pen and paper! Science!

wow just wow.:pinkiesick::pinkiesick:🇺🇳

That last line fucking killed it for me.

THIS is how you do gross-out humor properly.

Cringe comedy, my friend, it's funny because it is uncomfortable.

I'm more confused than a homeless man under house arrest.

I, ah, umm, ah, yes, well, um, right then.

Oh hell, i remember this conversation X_X

I found this as weird as it was entertaining. And it was really, really, really weird. I loved every second of this story but I was a little confused as to exactly who was who. For the first half I thought Gibson was just another name for Button. But regardless of the fact that it was somewhat gross and made very little sense I can still see the point here. Unspiced placenta is gross.

“So you know how it’s customary for mares to eat their placentas after giving birth, right?”

One sentence! Exactly one sentence in and I'm already laughing my ass off! That's a new record!

I don't find it disgusting.

I love that my first thought on reading the first line was "Huh. Totally forgot that was a thing."

*goes to find a story on FiMFiction*

Huh, wonder what this could be...

*15 minutes later*

........ Never getting anything pumpkin spice flavored ever again.... Also, how did I get here???

Am I the only one interested in learning more about their home life, like, how did they become siblings, and how does that play out? No? Aww.

Was not expecting that, but i do not regret reading it

8523849
I mean... I started a fic on that... It's not like I arbitrarily decided to put these two groups together a couple months ago. :rainbowlaugh:

In all my years, I have never read anything that comes even close to this.

Have a favorite.

Well, Love Tap is right about one thing. She's not hurting anyone.

Unlike how the Sirens fed, which boils down to getting ponies to hurt each other.

To quote Shakespeare: Words! I need more words! :facehoof:

Well... that's a first line if i've ever seen one.

Gibson needs to learn when to cut his losses . It was clear from the start that every question he got answered would only bring him more misery

Fun fact: the vast majority of cells in a placenta share DNA with the fetus, so in actuality it is much more the child's placenta than it is the mother's.

I believe that technically the cells that make up the placenta are genetically the same as the baby. It is the interface that attaches to the uterine wall to allow gas and nutritional exchange between the mother and developing child. Basically it's an organ we discard upon being born...

Oh and Pumpkin spice anything is just nasty if it's not a pumpkin pie.. :rainbowwild:

I'll have to have to consider a sequel or bonus where Sonata has a heated argument with Love Tap over this. :rainbowlaugh:

8524201
I have to wonder if Celestia and Luna know about the placenta trade. Selling fetal organs doesn't really seem like something they be tolerant of, even if it is "recycling".

8524470
And the placenta dealers just pay the guards to look the other way.

Must be nice to never have a maximum hand size.
