Level Dasher


You can't give up your laughter 'cause you're scared of a little pain; rainbows won't up the sky unless you let it rain. —Autumn Blaze

A new year, a new gala, a new dress for each of her friends. That’s Rarity’s philosophy. Her friends would normally be fine with this, if she weren’t already up to her muzzle in other orders, but the fashionista can be a little… insistent.

That was very typical Rarity and I really enjoyed it! She is always just a bit frightening and intimidating when she gets stressed.

Eeeeeh!

So is Sweetie Belle getting Opal to comfort Rarity ?
Or to dispose of the dresses with her claws ?

Check the genre tag again, then think about the dress designs. If you figure it out, either leave it be or put it in spoilers please.

You had one job, Spike. ONE job. :facehoof:

:duck: Spikey Wikey I need you. I need you hot!
:moustache: Whoa , hot eh?
:twilightblush: Have you seen Spike? I need him at the castle:unsuresweetie:?
:unsuresweetie: you have to wait Rarity has him busy with something hot, they've been at it for hours!
:twilightoops: Rarity stop!
:raritystarry: But darling I need to finish these dresses now!
:moustache: Her iron broke and besides it feels really neat gliding over the wrinkles!
:facehoof:

Hmmm... I actually didn't mind the dark turn this fic took, but I think it could have been more powerful if there was a little bit more leading up to the sudden darkness. Like you have these lovely couple of scenes of some interactions between Twilight, Rarity, and Spike which are mostly fun and kind of comedic, and then the whole, "Rarity killed your pets and turned them into dresses" just kind of... happens out of nowhere? I don't think there's anything wrong at all with what you have written, I just find myself wanting more before the reveal. I still gave it a like though because I thought your dialogue was really nice and I like the idea!

That took me a few read-throughs to get. :facehoof: :rainbowlaugh:

Thanks for the input! :twilightsmile: I get what you mean about the lack of buildup. I probably could have had a few more scenes in between the castle scene and the second boutique scene with input from the others, but I think it was really more a case of me generally not actually being a fan of dark fics myself. I just wanted to push the word count as much as I needed to and then just kind of be done with it. :twilightsheepish:

So thats why we haven't seen Owlisous snice the season four finale. Rarity made him into a dress
