Leaky Secrets has worked tirelessly to expose the secrets of corrupt governments, asking nothing in return except fame, wealth and mares. After escaping the wrath of the Griffon Republic by hiding in the Equestrian Embassy, he meets a delighted Twilight Sparkle.
He is her hero.
Never meet your heroes.
Or rather, I get it, but I don't know what's supposed to make it funny...
When I see that many negative votes on a story, generally it means a lousy time. But when I see that many negative votes on a Blueshift story, I know it means I'm in for a wacky time. 
I did thoroughly enjoy this, although Twilight seems horrendously out of character, which in a way adds a charm to it but also degrades from the story's overall quality. Still, Leaky's character is too pompous and ridiculous for me not to enjoy this. 
you know what twilight has to say about all of this? 
once she finds him? 
Is funny. 
(For the record, I applaud the idea of Wikileaks, think that Bradley Manning has been treated in an utterly unacceptable and shameful way, and that Julian Assange appears to be an egotistic asshat who's doing a great job tainting Wikileaks with his idiotic antics. 'Cause really, anyone who thinks Sweden is more likely to turn him over to the US than UK is nearly terminally clueless.)
Oh yes, same. Frankly I think everyone in the whole situation has behaved shockingly. I don't think he's in danger of being extradited to the US, but I imagine Sweden has been leaned on to throw the book at him and lock him up for a long time.
If the US wanted him, they could have got him. Heck the UK is the country who extradited that kid to the US whose 'crime' was having a website with links to online copyrighted material, which isn't illegal in the UK, and might not even be illegal in the US. What;'s next, are we going to extradite our citizens who have had extra marital affairs to Saudi Arabia to be stoned to death?
I like the idea of Wikileaks too. I'm glad that the governments of the world have an extra reason to look over their shoulder when carrying out illegal activities. But if you're going to set yourself up as the figurehead of such an organisation that exposes corruption (and there's no reason such a thing needs such a public figurehead) then you'd better be sure you're a moral paradigm and not, you know, going around boning everything in sight.
I don't have any problem with Wikileaks' supposed cause, I just wish that they hadn't edited that helicopter footage to make the military look worse "Running Man" style, or leaked the names of those Afghan informants.
But anyway, that was pretty stupid of Leaky toward the end, what embassy can protect him from a mare who can teleport?

Did you piss off a downvote bot or something?
Ohhhhh. Man, I totally forgot this guy even existed. (They have won!)
To be honest, my reaction was kind of "Huh, that was okay" until I saw the comment telling me just what was going on here. But that means this can't really stand on its own without the parody gimmick. Damn, I'm evaluating pony fanfics with the same critical eye as SCP articles. :/ I guess my assessment is "BLUES I AM DISAPPOINT".
Also, wtf is "Hull" a reference to? I know it's got to be.
