Up until the last few paragraphs where Fluff asked for a Cutie Staff and Cutie Vault, I thought she was Twilight and not Starlight. I thought the author just got the colors just a little wrong. Goes to show just how bad Glimmy's character design is.

Technically, this is not second-person narration. Second-person refers to books that describe the thoughts and actions of the protagonist as though they were the reader's own. Beginning everything with "you" is a dead giveaway, a lot of choose-your-own-adventure books use this style.

Thank you for that. Sometimes I get things a little mixed up! I'll fix it!

So this is before season 5 then.

Does Sunset Shimmer appear in this story?

Kenya Tea will forever be her name to me now.:twilightsmile:

Was I feeling... Guilty?

Guilty? For what? We haven't even started up the brainwashing yet, there's nothing to be guilty about!

"Alvar, do you think you can make a medium sized, square, wooden shack? Make sure it's aligned with the houses so it doesn't look out of place. Speakers on each wall, along with windows and curtains. Make sure that everything inside is about how great it is to conform and join our town, giving up your cutie mark for a better life! I'll take care of the speaker recordings,"

Ah, no, there it is. Never mind!

His name is Alvar, and he's a complete asshole.

:rainbowlaugh:

Starlight smiled up at me, "Let's go for five weeks. If they don't want to be our friends by then, they'll stay there for a month."

Starlight: Let's put them in the shack for five weeks. If they aren't brainwashed yet, I'll go back in time four or five days until they are.

Alvar: You can go back in time?

Starlight: I am known to do that on occasion, yes.

I took lines from the show and put them into this chapter, but it kinda messed up my writing. Sorry about that...

This was fine. Sometimes you just gotta follow an episode closely to set up your own story's world. I've seen a lot of stories that just follow the regular story of Friendship is Magic that just have an added character making color commentary without even trying to change the events that happen at all.

Really, you handled this chapter pretty tastefully, and set up events to take the story in your own direction, so I'm not expecting you to have too much more trouble with this particular problem.

Thank you. I needed someone to say that. Now I don't need to have a panic attack! :rainbowlaugh:

Nothing like some good old-fashioned demonic reflexes.

Yes, I did the 'FBI OPEN UP' thing. I couldn't help myself :rainbowkiss:

Yo, that's a cool drawing of a wind, how ling did it take you to draw it? </sarcasm>

Can you make a portal? I'd recommend cutting a path into the Abyss off in the wasteland somewhere, let the guard find it, and then walk calmly in the other direction while a small-scale war breaks out. The real trick of mis-direction isn't just in hiding something, 'tis also in letting them find something else.

I knew they ignored the screams of terror and mercy from the shack at night.

I recommend this sentence be changed to read "terrified screams for mercy."

OPEN UP! THIS IS THE PONICE!:flutterrage:

Shit, it's the po-pos!:pinkiegasp:

Thank you! I'll change it. That's actually a good suggestion. I hadn't even thought of that :twilightsmile:

Edit : Fixed it!

Very short, I know. But like the Author's Note said, I'm tired.

So is this whole him working with Starlight gonna keep going or is something different happening because I thought hed be a more grumpy demon that the Mane 6 have to monitor by now

That's Venerable Ro, thank you very much, and an excellent trick with the portal, well done.

Sorry! I'll fix it! :rainbowlaugh:
Also, thanks! Just added a little bit of my twisted side and ta-da!

Edit : Fixed it!

But seriously, though. You are a very avid and widely respected commenter on this site.:raritywink:

9715097

Well that's kind of you to say. I never knew I was so well regarded.

I see you on most stories that I click on, I remember you because you have a memorable name and picture, and I've noticed that most of your comments have some kind of insight to the story, and thumbs ups besides.

Even if others don't remember you, you're helpful to the author in most cases and don't really get downvotes. I get a lot of likes for my jokes, but I always seem to manage to step on some people's toes when I express (hopefully constructive) criticisms.

Yeeaahh... :twilightoops:

So Alvar doesn't like Discord. That's a thing I did.

*cough*

Imma go over here

Why would that be surprising? I would assume that most people don't like him. He's literally a high-functioning psychopath.

I like his character, but he seems like a real dick that you would have to put in a lot of effort to have a positive relationship with.

"Alvar! Go take a shower. I'll be fine." Starlight narrowed her eyes at me.

Why does he need to take a shower? He has magic.

9721692
Because I Starlight said so, that's why!

...

Remember that he's contractually obligated to obey her commands as long as she feeds him enough fear.

9721710
Ah, yes. I forgot that detail.

Oh boy, getting Discord to sod off is going to be a hard sell. Perhaps the Sisyphus method? "Hey Discord, I bet you can't fit in this innocuous brass oil lamp!"

Blinding some men, but helping others see, made me think of the Sun, or light. Which doesn't fit the first half.

Greed can blind people, or give people a vision for their life, But that's not quite it...

Could it be ambition? With humans acting under it doing the feats described?
