A word of warning: This fic is based off of a film that... goes beyond the warrant of a simple "Teen" rating. This got sent to us a month or two ago, and we declined it on subject matter grounds.

Don't beat around the bush:
It draws from Human Centipede but with ponies.

I don't object to the story being here, which is why I didn't want to spoil the twist for incoming readers. Instead, I have beef that this thing isn't tagged as "Mature". The source material sure as hell ain't kid-friendly.
I was thinking about tagging it mature, but.... it really isn't that gory. I mean, as far as imagery shared with the readers, it's virtually bloodless. I feel that I've used enough discretion to warrant a T rating. It was approved with the T rating. This isn't EqD, and unless I'm told that I need to give it an M rating, I feel no need to.

All gore is mature, but not all mature is gore. Now, I don't know about you. I grew up in the 90's. Gross cartoons -- Rocko's Modern Life, Aaah! Real Monsters, etc. were my favorite. But this is a completely different kind of gross. It's transgressive. if your mouth were to be stitched to the business end of someone else's GI tract, or if someone else's mouth were stitched onto your rear end... would you be OK with your situation being labeled as appropriate for teens? I think I know what your answer is, and I'll warn you that society probably takes a different view on that.
You're right that this isn't EqD. By my count, there's a little over 4,000 stories posted on this site. And to my knowledge, there are only a handful of people who moderate the site's content. With no disrespect meant toward the mods, I doubt they have the ability to give each fic a thorough check for ratings compliance and whatnot -- and the part we objected to only materialized near the end of the second chapter, some 7,000 words in.
I'm trying to save you some face here. It's not that big a deal to tag this as "mature". This is FimFiction -- you're going to get readers no matter what.
Gotta agree with your pre-readers here. The original Human Centipede has hardly any gore in it either, yet it's not for nothing that it's probably the most notorious film of the past few years. Like Roger Ebert said in his review, 'No horror film I've seen inflicts more terrible things on its victims than “The Human Centipede.” You would have to be very brave to choose this ordeal over simply being murdered. Maybe you'd need to also be insane.'
Like the guy above me said, you're gonna get readers no matter what. That, and you'll save yourself getting a load of comments about 'why isn't this rated mature?'
i wrote a story about nazi ponies and why would u write this
I have to side with the pre-readers here. Marking this as Mature seems like the responsible thing to do.
All good points. The rating has been changed.
Is this normal protocol for EqD pre-readers? I mean... your opinions have already been made clear regarding this fic.
....But at any rate, I think I'd like to use this comment as an Author's Note (regarding the oh-so-anticipated "why would you write this?" reaction)
In a way, this was a little "medical experiment" of my own. Are any ideas vile enough to be completely without merit? In most cases, it is execution that makes an idea terrible. As disgusting as Tom Six's idea is... in more capable hands, it could have had a point. From what I've read about it, it's random. Why is the "centipede" created? Why those particular victims? What would one do if one escaped that situation? I felt that there was more that could be explored....
I didn't really want to be the one to do it, but... It was sort of a Lovecraftian experience. Once I had the idea, it would finally leave me alone. I would write it, publish it, make my point... and then I would have peace. This is my response to the original film, and my first foray into Pony Fanfic. I assure you, it will be the darkest thing I write. This is not terribly typical for me.
ALSO: there are a lot of formatting errors. I thought they would be tedious to fix, but looking at these chapters closer.... yeah, they need their original italics, etc. I'll be fixing that at some point, probably over the weekend.
Wait... this the story the samurai made a completely spoilered review?
Damn.
NOTE: I finally fixed my formatting. Should make Chapter 3 a bit more coherent, I think.
Holy Crap... uhh... That was... um... wierd... but good writing... i guess...
I've read it twice. This is amazing. Who knew something so awesome could come from such a stupid movie. This is some great stuff, you should be proud of this. It's not even about being based off that movie, but rather how in-character everypony is despite the horrendous situation they'd never in their lives think they would be in, almost like it could actually be a real, yet very sick, episode of MLP. That part just really steals me.

Wow! Thanks... I'm flattered! Really, one of the highest praise I feel any fanfic author can get is that they kept everypony in character, I don't know what to say! That was what I was going for, so... I'm glad somepony got it. You have no idea how good it feels to hear that. I knew that a lot of people wouldn't be happy with this fic's existence at all... But if just one reader can say that about it, then I guess I've done my job.
61091 Yeah once I noticed were this story was coming from I had serious case of bad juju. But it was short in torture length, they all made it, and there was a ending that was. . . well an actual ending. With a lesson(?) learned. Now i tip my hat to you (what hat?
) and am now going to run in. . . that general direction *points randomly*...
*runs up a level to the weird part of youtube*
Well, I started reading this not knowing what I was getting into, and by the time I realized it, I just couldn't quite stop.
But rather than just being the torture porn I expected from such a crossover, this actually was not bad as far as brain bleach necessity goes. The writing was well-done, everypony was in-character, and, well... I still don't know quite what to think of the concept itself, but I think the way you handled it was really great. I liked that you focused on the psychological aspect more than the "EW GROSS" aspect.
I LoL'ed at this story
