I WON!

I WON, AND I'M HAPPY.

GIVE ME PRIZE, OR THE MIRTH WILL FADE

LIKE FEARS IN THE BRAIN.

Sweetie has come a long way since Twilight Time. I'm sure Twilight and Rarity would be proud of her.
Still... has Rarity allowed her in the kitchen yet?

Huh. Not at good a result qs I thought it woukd be, rather unhappy. Pretty goddamn dark actually. Brainwashing and sexual assaukt for one. And if hes been turned into Smoulder, wouldn't that actually make hum NOT be her friend? Because then Smoulder would be horrified that her friend hurt and betrayed someone, on top of the idea she casually brainwashed her.

10360281 The heck? What MLP show were you watching where casual mind-control and transformation wasn't a thing?

Y you spek so profane terms upon the chain-o-ramic comment section located in the digitized area what lays beneath the main course of this E-rated fic, smallish wyrmling representative of the Deep-God Yurt, WHY?!
YOUR LIES WILL NOT DECEIVE ME, NO!

Its the fact she does it AND he is perfectly fine with it afterwards, when Smolder would likely be infuriated by it.

You're going ti want to cut back on the word salad, otherwise it looks like random gibberish.

Your trickery won't fool me, St. Valentinus of Antlers Two and Eyes of Three and Body of Fuzz Like That of Wolves Whose Malefic Grin Strikes Fear and Loathing Into the Hearts of Mortal Men. Everyone knows words are forged of the meatiest of meatbreads, not the veiny green leaves of bitter quality.

I despise the Young Six and Friendship School with every fiber of my being, but this was pretty good.

Horrendous.

It's perfect. (?)

This feels like it violates so many laws....so many

The writing was wonderful but the premise just induces an indescribable loathing within me. I have a primal and visceral hatred for this particular kind of mind manipulation and intentional forced gender swaps like this.

But the writing is wonderful, so upvote despite the uncomfortable twisting in my gut. *Shivers* Ugh

Excellent Smolder transformation. :3

this entire fic is just a transformation scene? okay then...

10362022
Hey! you should see my stories that involve transformation scenes as well.

Shameless promotion from me I know. ^^'

Same. This feels like Sweetie didn't even know the full implications of what she was doing considering she literally has overwritten the mind and body of someone. In essence, she killed them by replacing them with another. Seems like pretty dark magic to me. If she did know what she was doing in full, then she's really fucked up. I kinda hate stories like this for the plot of them but this one is written well, so at least there's that.

10366694 I was pretty explicit in the spell not having overwritten but rather overlaid. Oh well. I honestly didn't expect this to get much attention—wrote it in an hour as a warm up for my normal writing. :twilightsmile:

She said that getting emotional would bring out Smoulder's personality, so it's clear she knows the effects of the spell and has likely used it before, He is still in there. God, messing with a persons' identity and very being like that is just beyond messed up.

I don't know about you but the fact that she acknowledges, and verifies that his ... (was it friendliness? Or personality, behaviour? One of them) is perfectly normal for a human, then decides to turn him into Smoulder anyway is even more messed up. She's basically saying that being human isn't good enough for the school of friendship. I literally just realized that's, actual speciesism. The alien doesn't meet your standard so mutate it into something that does.

It still twists my gut I swear.

It's definitely a nice warmup piece for sure. Throwing together a quick oneshot that flows nicely takes lots of practice, so it's also a good thing TO practice.

10367363 If you check out my blogs, I've been posting more such in there, including a 40k word story and a piece of original fiction (though it's a bit darker and horror-y).

I couldn't help but snort at a pony using a meme.

There's a disturbing mental image: A pony whose special talent is memetic references. Kind of tragic too; their cutie mark would probably end up dated within a matter of months.

The bridge between teenage human and pony, I believe, is adolescent dragon.

Yeah, that tracks.

And here we see the end result of Sweetie Belle working for Starlight Glimmer: Disturbing violations of mind and body in the name of of helping someone be the best version of themselves they can be. Which, in this case, means learning how to be the best version of someone else for a bit. I can only imagine what Smolder herself will think of this. All told, this makes a distressing amount of sense. Well done. :twilightoops:

that'd make a interesting sequel...smoulder meeting smoulder

I looked at Sweetie Belle in shock. Ever since this cultural exchange crap had started, I'd gotten dumped on. My parents had jumped on this whole Spend a Year in Equestria thing, and had immediately and totally gone full pony (never go full pony). I'd been shoved in a school, then another, and finally I wound up here—the School Of Friendship.

What's the difference?

Ahem. Disregard, and thanks mods, for removing the AI spam.
