A cool Autumn breeze blew through the night in the magical capital city of Equestria, Canterlot. The streets were full of ponies, of all social classes, all dressed in their fanciest evening wear. They all engaged in small banter as they made their way down the road, all heading for one particular place in mind: Phantasma.
Ever since the adventures of the ‘Phantom of the Opera’, the former opera ghost Erik had constructed a colossal opera house right in the heart of Canterlot. This was his sanctuary where he could showcase his musical mastery to the entire world. He had plans to expand his business even further by constructing a theme park, but that was a venture for another day.
For tonight, every pony from far and wide came to see the amazing musical stylings of one of the greatest singers in all Equestria:
Countess Coloratura…
Twilight Sparkle and the rest of the Mane Six all ventured into the grand hall of the Phantasma Opera House, looking around as they admired the grand architecture of the building. When Erik had constructed the opera house, he intended for it to share the many qualities of the Opera Populaire. There were golden statues everywhere, every seat was made of the finest material money could buy, all the walls were decorated in lavish artwork and beautiful trimmings. Needless to say, it was truly a sight to behold for one and all.
“WOW-WEE!” Pinkie exclaimed excitedly.
“Took the words right outta mah mouth there Pinkie,” Applejack nodded in awe.
“Is this really the first time we’ve ever actually been in this opera house?” Fluttershy asked.
“It seems that way Flutters,” Rainbow nodded. “Personally, give me a good buck ball game any day of the week.”
“Come now hon, we’re here to support Rara’s performance,” Applejack reminded her marefriend.
Rainbow rolled her eyes and nodded her head.
“Alright,” She groaned. “But you owe me later tonight, no matter how tired we get.”
Before their interaction could possibly go any further, the owner of the opera house himself emerged from his office and headed in their direction. Rarity instantly ran to her husband, embracing him in a loving hug.
“Ah, my most cherished beauty!” Erik smiled happily. “I am so glad you and the others could attend tonight’s performance.”
“As am I my love,” Rarity said, kissing his cheek.
“And how’s our ‘little one’ doing?” Erik asked, placing a hoof on her stomach.
“Quite well,” Rarity smiled.
After their last adventure, in which his wife nearly died, Erik decided to do something special for Rarity and they took a second honeymoon to a lovely tropical island. It was a fantastic two weeks, just the two of them spending time together. About a month of two prior to their return, Rarity begun to act strangely, feeling sudden cravings and getting emotional out of the blue. They went to the doctor to confirm their suspicions and sure enough they were informed they were expecting. Being that Rarity was only three moths along, she wasn’t really ‘showing’ all that much. But soon enough, they could not wait to meet their little darling.
“Come everyone, I have our box ready for us,” Erik told everybody.
“Box Five?” Rarity asked.
“You know me so well…”
Every pony followed Erik upstairs to their private box, leading them down to none other than Box Five. Every pony took their seats and waited for the show to begin. Soon enough, the lights in the opera house dimmed and everyone applauded as the curtains were pulled aside. The only one on stage was Countess Coloratura, dressed in a very nice dress.
The famous singer stepped out before the audience, giving a bow before she stood back and took a deep breath. Music started to play softly, then she began to sing in that angelic voice only she was capable of providing.
When the song finished, the audience stood, clapping and cheering loudly for the singer. Rara had a few tears falling down her face from all the passion she put into her performance, as she bowed for her audience. Many of them even threw flowers onto the stage to showcase their appreciation. The curtain closed as Rara started working her way off the stage.

Later…
After the show was over, Rara was in her dressing room backstage when a sudden knock at the door drew her attention away from the mirror.
“Come in!” She called.
The door opened as Applejack was the first to enter, followed by the rest of the Mane Six, Spike, and Erik. Seeing her longtime friend since they were campers always made Rara smile and feel at home… in her heart. She stood up from her seat as Applejack walked up and they both embraced.
“Y’all were amazing tonight Rara, just as ya always are,” Applejack complimented.
“Thank you A.J.,” Rara replied, smiling. “I certainly hope so anyway. I’m always trying to put forth everything I have for my fans.”
“Well you certainly succeeded darling,” Rarity spoke up. “You were absolutely mesmerizing to say the least.”
“Oh yes, you really were amazing tonight,” Fluttershy agreed.
“Amazing?” Pinkie replied. “She was more than amazing. She was more like a combination between wonderful and stupendous. So that means… she was stupenderful!”
“Eh… it was alright,” Rainbow shrugged.
Applejack gave her marefreind a particularly hard swat on her flank with her tail. The rainbow-haired tomboy leapt with a yelp.
“Ow!” She yelled. “What was that for?”
“Be nice!” Applejack snipped back. “Ah’m sorry Rara, you’ll have tah forgive mah marefriend. She ain’t too much in the courtesy department.”
“It’s alright,” Rara assured her. “I’m just really glad you all came tonight.”
“Their words speak true my star,” Erik praised. “You gave an immaculate performance tonight, as you have all other nights since you’ve worked for me.”
“I really do appreciate the opportunity you’ve given me sir,” Rara replied.
The sound of a great big ‘YAWN!’ caused everyone to turn toward the teenage Spike, who was having a tough time keeping his eyes open… much less standing on his own two feet.
“Not to sound rude or nothing, but can we ‘please’ head back home and go to bed?” He asked tiredly.
“Oh Spike…” Twilight giggled. “You may be grown, but you’re still that tired baby dragon at heart.”
“Hardy-har…”
Everyone else laughed as well, but ultimately agreed it ‘was’ getting rather late. Soon as every pony gave their final goodbyes to Rara, congratulating her for a wonderful show, they made their leave for the train station for a well-deserved rest at home.

The next day…
The bright rays of the sun dawned over Ponyville’s blue sky. The birds were all chirping a melody so sweet, as the denizens of the quiet little town went about their daily business. Applejack strolled through tow pulling a cart full of apples behind her, all of which she was fixing to sell. Derick Collins was also walking alongside her, pulling yet another cart along with Big Mac.
“Think we have enough to sell or what?” Derick asked sarcastically.
“Eeyup!” Big Mac nodded.
“We sure do sugar cube,” Applejack responded. “Sellin’ these here apples should help last us a while.”
“Not to mention the apple fritters, apple pies, apple dumplings…” Derick listed. “You ponies sure love your apples.”
“Ah hush on up now,” Applejack scolded. “Help me set up this cart please.”
About a few minutes later, the two ponies had the cart set up and ready for business.
“Looks like that’s the end of it,” Derick sighed in relief. “I really should get going. I promised Carried we’d take a night walk down by the pond.”
“Oh alright,” Applejack smiled. “Say… how is Carrie by the way?”
“Well, she’s been better,” Derick answered. “Poor girl hardly gets out of the house often, usually she just sleeps like she hasn’t slept in years. It’s wonderful being with her, all the same. We’d take our walks everyday and I try to spark up a conversation. But usually it’s just me jabbering like a monkey in a tree… least she listens.”
“She’s just been through so much, a girl like her just needs time,” Applejack assured. “As long as she appreciates your company, that’s all that matters.”
“Yeah… when you’re right, you’re right.”
“Well, go on now. You two love birds have yerselves a good ole time now, ya hear?”
“Will do!” Derick nodded. “Later A.J.”
Derick soon walked off through town and eventually disappeared around the corner. Applejack smiled after him, remembering the events of their last adventure and everything that young man did to save Carrie White. A man so willing to give up everything he was raised to believe in and all for the girl he loved. It made Applejack and every pony else have real admiration for him. The sound of approaching hooves behind her made her turn around, expecting her first customer of the day.
“Sorry y’all, but we ain’t open just…”
She instantly stopped herself when she saw it was Rara behind her. The poor singer had huge crocodile tears running down her face and seemed like she was sad beyond belief.
“Rara, what happened?” She asked concerned. “Are ya alright?”
Rara gave no response but merely just held out a newspaper for Applejack, as she kept sobbing. Applejack grabbed the paper from her friend and began to read its contents.
“’Famous singer on her way out the door’?!” She read in shock. “’Countess Coloratura gave a meager, weak performance last night in Canterlot, leaving audiences wondering if her career has finally come to its end’.”
Applejack couldn’t help but grow angrier and angrier with every word she read in the newspaper. How dare some kooky critic bash her friend in such a manner? Rara’s performance last night was spectacular beyond words and yet someone had the nerve to slander her? She reeled in her anger as best she could because she knew that her friend needed her right now and she tried to put on a good face.
“Ah’m sorry Rara,” She apologized. “Ah can’t imagine how ya must be feelin’ right now.”
“Maybe they’re right,” Rara sobbed. “Maybe I have come to the end of my career. Aside from Erik, no pony has booked me to perform in over a year. I guess I’m just no good anymore.”
Applejack couldn’t bear it anymore, as she wrapped a hoof around her foal-hood friend trying to calm her down.
“Don’t y’all go sayin’ that now,” She said. “Yer an amazin’ singer, one ah the best Equestria has ever had. Ah know fer sure that ah ain’t the only one that thinks so.”
“But the reviews…”
“Them reviews ain’t nothin’ but a bunch ah phony nonsense,” Applejack assured. “Besides, it’s just ‘one’ critic.”
“Oh yeah?”
Rara pulled off her saddlebag she strapped on her back and dumped out its contents, of which revealed to be more newspapers from Manehatten, Baltimare, Las Pegasus, and Fillydelphia. Each one of them held the same sort of review from other critics.
“Okay, maybe it ‘ain’t’ just one,” Applejack sighed. “But these reviews are a matter of opinion, not facts. They don’t mean nothin’.”
“Maybe not for ‘you’ A.J., but it does to me!” Rara responded. “Music is the only thing I’ve ever wanted to do with my life. Ever since I was a filly, I’ve worked hard to become a professional singer and now that it’s all about to come crashing down… I’m so scared! I don’t know what to do… I don’t know what to do!”
Applejack couldn’t stand to see her friend so upset. It was true Rara worked hard to get to where she is now. If these sort of things kept happening, sooner or later her career ‘could’ come to an end. Applejack could not… no, wouldnot let that happen to her friend. Thinking on a whim, she knew exactly what needed to be done.
“Come with me Rara,” She said. “Ah know ‘exactly’ what we need tah do. Big Mac, hold the fort while we’re gone ya hear?”
“Eeyup!” Mac responded simply.
Applejack led her friend down the streets of Ponyville to the direction of ‘one’ place that could offer just the solution: Discord’s theatre…
<>
Later…
Applejack assembled the entire Mane Six, including Spike, Rara, and Erik. Once together, they gathered at Discord’s theatre, studying the many different newspapers Rara collected. To say the least, none of them were very happy about it at all.
“It’s blasphemy, I tell you!” Erik said angrily. “My star’s a sensational delight upon the stage. How dare these vile cretins?! Having the gall to slander her good name.”
“They’re lucky they live pretty far away, or I’d give each of them a piece of my mind!” Rainbow growled. “And a glass of ‘punch’ to wash it all down.”
“Okay, okay! We all agree this is a problem,” Twilight agreed. “The question then becomes ‘what’ we should do about it.”
“Ain’t it obvious sugar cube?” Applejack asked.
She tiled her head a few times, gesturing toward the giant screen the television was hooked up to. To say Twilight was slightly apprehensive about it was an understatement.
“I don’t know Applejack,” She answered uncertainly. “Every time we go through the television, we always bring back something bad from wherever we end up.”
“Ah come on, they weren’t all ‘that’ bad!” Pinkie spoke up. “Carrie’s been fitting in with us and Rarity’s married to a misunderstood scary musical man… no offense, Erik.”
“None taken…” Erik spoke dryly.
“My point is…” Twilight continued. “I think we should speak to Princess Celestia about this; perhaps there’s a something she might be able to do about this slander.”
“Ah’m tellin’ ya sugar cube if we can just find a place Rara can perform and shine like the star she truly is maybe it can help silence those doubters.”
“Maybe Twilight’s right, A.J.,” Rara spoke up. “I’ve seen all the adventures you guys been on and they seem pretty dangerous. I think it’s just time to admit that I’ve come to the end of my rope and at least retire in peace. I have an uncle who runs a shoe factory…”
“Nuh-uh! Ah ain’t lettin’ ya do that Rara,” Applejack spoke determined. “Ya said so yerself, singin’ is all ya ever wanted tah do with yer life. Ya give it up now, yer just provin’ them critics right about ya.”
Rara sighed to herself, but she knew deep in her heart Applejack was absolutely right. This had been her dream since she was a foal, she couldn’t just throw it all away just because some ponies told her to. Anything in life that means anything must be worth fighting for.
“You know I swear this whole scenario feels ‘familiar’ for some reason…” Pinkie pondered, scratching her head. “Now where have I heard this plot before?”
“If we’re going to help Rara, how would we do it?” Fluttershy asked.
Twilight thought over the notion for a moment before an imaginary lightbulb went off in her head. Approaching the television, she reached under the stand it sat upon and proceeded to pull out some weird device connected to the television. Soon she reapproached the group waiting anxiously.
“Celestia, Storm, and I have been working on this the past couple months,” Twilight informed. “I think it might be time to give it a test.”
“Now?” Rainbow asked, raising a brow.
“What is it, Twi?” Spike asked, observing the device. “Looks like some weird robotic headgear.”
“Ooh, I love robots!” Pinkie squealed gleefully. “Especially the ones from that movie we’ll be doing in the future… oh, wait a minute! Wasn’t supposed to give that away… pretend you didn’t hear that. Heh-heh… my bad.”
Everyone looked at Pinkie before shaking their heads and ignoring her strange comments.
“Well basically, we assembled this device to hook up to a pony’s subconscious and delve deep into the recesses of their minds to where their cognitive…”
“UGH! Can we please skip the egghead talk?” Rainbow asked irritated. “And maybe explain it like we’re two years old?!”
Twilight glared at her for a moment before releasing a deep sigh.
“Basically… you put it on your head, think of what you want most, and it’ll open the portal,” Twilight spoke deadpanned.
“Thank you!” Rainbow smirked.
Twilight approached Rara and though she spoke no words, Rara instantly knew what to do. She bowed her head, allowing Twilight to hook up the device around her head.
“Now I want you to relax and think of what you want most in this world,” Twilight instructed.
Releasing a deep exhale and shutting her eyes, Rara cleared her mind and focused on the one thing she wanted more than anything. A strange humming sound emanated from the device, as an electrical surge raced through the cord attached to it and traversed along the television. Every pony watched in shock as the portal opened and Rara opened her eyes as Twilight removed the device from her head. The Mane Six, Spike, and Rara gathered around the portal and made to step inside.
“Wait!”
Everyone froze and turned toward Erik, who approached their side.
“If you’re venturing off on this quest, I’m coming along as well,” He said.
“Are you quite certain of that darling?” Rarity asked. “It could very well be dangerous.”
“All the more reason to accompany you,” Erik responded. “I refuse to let you venture off on your own where anything could happen to you… or our child. I swore to protect and love you for the rest of my days, and I’m going along with you one way or the other.”
Rarity smiled at her husband, sincerely touched over how he truly cared so much for her and their child that he would go along with them just to keep them safe. Rarity leaned forward and kissed her husband earnestly before they both looked toward the portal. Every pony took a deep breath before taking a step forward and walking through the portal together. They had no idea what this adventure would entail, but they were determined to get through it together just as they always have.
Oh yes, saw this movie and love it. Can't wait to see how you do this one.
Is it just me or is the conversation between Applejack and Rara involving her performance review like in Spider-Man 3?
Finally! I’ve been anticipating this one for awhile now!
Another adventure begins
Ah yes C.A. faithful, after a rather hectic and horrific adventure involving a suffering child with telekinetic abilities, we decide to take a few steps back with a more comfortable element as we bring the girls into a realm of musical-theater style proportions. But before we even get to the meat and potatoes of the story itself, it turns out there's some trouble brewing in Equestria. Apparently, Rara's latest performances while smashingly good in the eyes of her supportive fans have no generated a 'positive' reaction amongst critics. For some strange reason, every pony is assuming that Rara is washed up and that she isn't the same artist that she used to be.
And before we go any further, I can relate to how much Rara takes their words seriously when it comes to dealing with critics. I've had several friends here on FimFic who are talented writers in their own way. And yet they always feel under pressure because they do not receive the amount of followers or likes as they hope and they are always insisting on 'pleasing' everyone even though that's not really the right way to go. I won't say any names, but while I get where they are coming from the only person who should really know they are doing an amazing job with the talent they possess is themselves. If we try to be like all the greater authors that came before us, we're constantly putting ourselves under their shadows and always spending our lives compared to their measure of greatness rather than standing on their own. Although, if anyone can guess the reference Rara makes about the shoe factory thing (While not canon to her character itself) I'll be greatly impressed if someone can figure out the relation it has.
Anyways, it won't be long before we finally get into the action where our heroes will meet a man who's been challenging the critics with his contributions to showmanship even when it seems the world is stacked against his efforts to be the best he can be. While perhaps not as historically accurate as the original portrayal, we can assure you faithful viewers this should make for a rather entertaining addition to the series.
11149483
We definitely have plans as far as what we want to do with this movie. I think the fans will be pleasantly surprised.
11149493
We know fans have been 'begging' us to do this movie over and over (We won't say any names at this time). Now that we're getting around to doing this project, we are confident that what we have in store moving forward will be worth the wait.
11149497
That's right. And with another adventure comes another set of challenges for our heroes to endure. In which case, determining if one of our guest stars will reignite the confidence in herself and remind herself why she loves to sing in the first place. Not just for the fans, but for herself.
Me: "It's true! Take a look. It's in a book!"

Primarily I’m just in it for Rara. 😁
11149512
'Reading Rainbow' reference... loved that show. Especially that one intro where the kids turn into characters from the books they read. Like 'literally' being a part of the stories.
Discord: "Well, when in show biz, there's gonna be some competitions, now and then. But Ghostface's got another thing coming if he thinks I'm going to take this lying down. It's time for some Discord chaos."
Random dude: "Verosika Mayday?!"
Me: (Gives random dude a dope slap) "No stupid!"
*Chorus*
Mina: "Which reminds me..." (To me) "Hey Doc. Where are you and Rain Shine going to go on your honeymoon?"
Me: (Flustering) "Wha-What are you? Nuts? We're not...I mean, we haven't...uh..."
Mina: "What do you mean you haven't yet? You've already proposed and she accepted. What's taking you two so long?"
Me: "Well...uh...THIS isn't a conversation for children!"
Mina: "Says the manchild who ships Spike and Gabby together to compensate for the sunken Sparity ship."
Me: "At least I'M not the one who shipped Princess Luna with King Sombra together!"
Silver Shill: (To me and Mina) "Uh...I swear, you two get younger every day..."
Apple Bloom: "Kinda like how Sugar Belle's been acting, as of late. Ever noticed how big her stomach's been gettin?"
Me: "And soon, Lil'Cheese will have a playmate!"
11149517
Yeah, and I'm certain the Twilight Sparkle in the other world would've loved this It's Showtime adventure...
And so a new adventure begins for are heroes.
Future G5
Somewhere, in the distant future of Equestria, Sunny Starscout and her friends were watching a recording of Countess Coloratura's performance, via a projector.
Sunny Starscout: "Omigosh, omigosh, OMIGOSH! IT'S COUNTESS COLORATURA!!!"
Izzy Moonbow: "YAY!!! Countess Coloratura!" (Looks confused) "Uh...who's Countess Coloratura?"
Sunny Starscout: "Only one of Equestria's most amazing pop singer of all time! They say that she has the voice of a thousand angels, and when she sings, her cutie mark shines as bright as Celestia's sun!"
Me: "Bravo! Bravo! Bravissimo!"
Future G5
Zipp Storm: "Wow! Color me impress."
Pipp Petals: "Gorgeous~!"
I'll be back with more. I'm at work, right now.
This is gonna be great! I can't wait to see the dress designs I made for this story!
Love Never Dies reference!
11149540
I had the same thought once I learned about this
11149571
the terminator?
transformers the movie from the 80s
transformers live action films?
11149571
What about Robocop?
And so the adventure begins. I'm actually all a tingle to see how well they learn their latest lesson for their latest adventure.
11149611
Keep your shorts on, we haven't gotten to that point just yet. But I'm sure the designs will work just fine.
11149622
Like we weren't going to acknowledge that reference. Maybe it was not the 'best' follow-up to 'Phantom of the Opera', but it still has a few takeaways that a 'Phantom' fan like myself appreciates the effort for. With me of course, it is mostly the songs.
11149626
Okay... can we 'please' try to keep our attention on the current project please? We'll discuss robots another time.
Thank you.
11149628
Oh, we're certain they are bound to learn a lesson or two all right. But it will not be an easy phase I can say this much.
So excited for this and Rarity having a child......awesome and surprising......this is gonna be quite the show and the greatest lol
11149633
Well, we always had the plan to reveal that Rarity and Erik are having a kid together. Initially, we were planning this for another project. But we figured now would be a decent time to make this surprise official. Plus we hoped this would be a less 'dangerous' adventure to do so.
11149632
Understandable. Can't wait to see how well this turns out though. I watched the movie a month ago so now I know how the movie goes. Which makes me all more excited.
In The Words Of Pinkie Pie *gasp* OH MY GOSH OH MY GOSH OH MY GOSH! Cinematic Adventures is Back!
(One small Popcorn, a goofy goober sundae, and a large root beer please!) Boy am I Hyped! Also Rara's Costume looks Gorgeous! It's a nice mashup of her old persona but still highlights her traditional true self/inner beauty. Also makes me wish to see a cover of that song in particular! Also happy to see Carrie recovering and the Discord Theather fully repaired! Let's get ready to put on a show! *Wears a Top Hat*
"Famous singer on her way out the door’" She read in shock. “’Countess Coloratura gave a meager, weak performance last night in Canterlot, leaving audiences wondering if her career has finally come to its end”- Wow this is just like what Daring Do had to deal with. What A Bunch Of Jerks! Poor Rara!

"Rainbow rolled her eyes and nodded her head. “Alright,” She groaned. “But you owe me later tonight, no matter how tired we get.”- Oh Come On Dash, You liked Hinny of the Hills, least you can do is tolerate this.

“It’s blasphemy, I tell you!” Erik said angrily. “My star’s a sensational delight upon the stage. How dare these vile cretins?! Having the gall to slander her good name.”- Woah fancy langugage!
"Okay, okay! We all agree this is a problem,” Twilight agreed. “The question then becomes ‘what’ we should do about it.”“Ain’t it obvious sugar cube?” Applejack asked.

And I agree, Besides does the name Tubby Wubby, mean Anything? (wonder what that little cutie's been up to) You'll get use to that Eric if Eqg taught us anything. Just give it sometime.
“Ah’m tellin’ ya sugar cube if we can just find a place Rara can perform and shine like the star she truly is maybe it can help silence those doubters.”-How would doing that in another world fix anything? last i checked i don't think all of equestria has more than one television. Regardless I like your support AJ!
“You know I swear this whole scenario feels ‘familiar’ for some reason…” Pinkie pondered, scratching her head. “Now where have I heard this plot before?”-Should be! you girls are in a tv show with a formula after all. happened in The Mane Attraction!
Twilight thought over the notion for a moment before an imaginary lightbulb went off in her head. Approaching the television, she reached under the stand it sat upon and proceeded to pull out some weird device connected to the television. Soon she reapproached the group waiting anxiously.

Heh-heh… my bad.”- No Spoilers Pinkie! regardless i had no idea you liked robots! You'd get a kick out of meeting my oc Beebop! (Ron's Gone Wrong or Mitchells possibly?) The formers a bit new but I think it would be cool to see either of these. Especially the first since it does talk about friendship!
"Well basically, we assembled this device to hook up to a pony’s subconscious and delve deep into the recesses of their minds to where their cognitive…” (So it's like a virtual reality helmet? Awesome!)
“UGH! Can we please skip the egghead talk?” Rainbow asked irritated. “And maybe explain it like we’re two years old?!” Twilight glared at her for a moment before releasing a deep sigh.

“If you’re venturing off on this quest, I’m coming along as well,” He said.
“Are you quite certain of that darling?” Rarity asked. “It could very well be dangerous.”
“All the more reason to accompany you,” Erik responded. “I refuse to let you venture off on your own where anything could happen to you… or our child. I swore to protect and love you for the rest of my days, and I’m going along with you one way or the other.”- No comment here, these 2 are just a wonderfull couple!
11149629
I know. I'm waiting patiently.
11149645
You don't know how to 'quote', do you?
Jeez... Poor Rara. Can't wait to see how this goes.
On a lunch break now...
Me: "And me!"
Random dude: "And me."
Discord: "AND me!"
Random dude: "Is that even a word?"
Me: "Buddy... After all these years, it's better not to question Pinkie Pie..."
11149661
I hate to imagine who're the snobs who dare to besmirch Rara's good name. It's likely some pony who holds a grudge against Rara, or some pony not easily impressed with her music and just wrote all that stuff just for the attention. Could be any type of critic.
11149656
Not really no, I fixed it tho! hows this? Better?
11149667
It's obvious 'someone' needs a lesson... *Sighs*
You copy a paragraph you intend to use for quotation purposes. Then you click the symbol that looks like a 'parentheses' between the 'Insert Embeddable Content' symbol and the 'Spoiler' symbol. Or the fastest way to do it is to hit Ctrl & Q on the keypad. Then you paste the paragraph of your choice between the Quotation symbols, then you put your response outside of it.
Please don't make it any harder.
Rarity and Erik are going to be parents?! That, I didn't see coming.
11149708
That was the idea. We knew the fans were going to be in for a surprise when we include this for the series.
I can't wait for the musical parts of this story! Will you add other songs? Good luck and good job on your stories past and present.

This is a musical feature so of course we're going to add the songs to it. If we 'were' to consider any other, Mr. Enigma would let me know during the development process.
Discord: "Yes. They're gonna need it. Especially for the chaos I have in store, tomorrow. Hehehehe."
Speaking of whom...
Ever since Carrie had moved from Chamberlain, with Derick, to Equestria, the young girl-turned-pony had been getting out of her shell more often. She often hangs out with Fluttershy and her animals, reads books with Twilight and Spike, models for dresses that Rarity made, even sewing some of her own designs. Though, Carrie was more interested in visiting Erik, the Phantom of the Opera, who too can easily relate the horrors the young girl had once gone through.
But when she's not hanging out with her friends, one of the few things Carrie enjoys doing, was listening to some new songs. At this moment, Carrie was in her guest room, at Fluttershy's cottage, listening to a song, playing in a headphone that she got from DJ-Pon-3.

I(NOT DOCTOR Ph.D) happened to be walking back, when I heard the headline, and I did a spittake.
Me: "What?!"
Derpy: "WHAT?!" (Drops an anvil)
Crazy Steve: "WHAAAAAATTTT?!!!!" (Gets conked on the head by the anvil)
J. Jonah Jameson: "It is not! I resent that! Slander is spoken. In print, it's liable."
Me: (To Rara) "Saying you're not good anymore, is like saying I'M not good anymore!"
Me: "Yeah. I know how you feel Rara. At the start of my commentator career – from Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone – I used to get over 12 thumbs up. Now, my ratings just aren't what they used to be. I guess it's about time I hand in my resignation and retire with Rain Shine...just as soon as I find my successor..."
Me: "That's ridiculous! Hmmmm...I smell a rat."
