Once upon a time, Shining Armor approached an unoccupied Rarity with the possibility of trying out an RPG the kirin had sent to him for testing. In response, Rarity threw him out of his own castle. And Shining has no idea why.

To be fair to Shining, though, she took that completely out of context.

But then there wouldn't be a story, would there? :trollestia:

:twilightoops: She did what?
:moustache: Chucked ole Shiny out a fifth story window
:raritystarry: He was fine not a scratch
:twilightangry2: Not a scratch?
:duck: He did get roasted a little
:twilightoops: Spike? Wut, You burned him?
:moustache: How'd I know he was in the sack...
:facehoof:

LOL. This was so funny! :rainbowlaugh: I loved it!

Oooooooof, that was hilarious

Rarity will need to apologize for this. And make him a new Uniform to apologize. Gods I thought Pinkie was the one to overreact.

Now, I kind of want: A second chapter with an embarrassed Rarity, a stint in a crystal jail. International headlines about an international incident, and attempted murder. A large crab defense lawyer (because Rarity)

This fic here is a thing of beauty! I love it!

Twilight and Co. are skipping (yes, skipping) through the entrance to The Crystal City, fresh off an amazing friendship success with the remote yeti enclave, laughing and sharing key snippets of their adventure-

"Here, Twilight!" Calls Cadance's Royal Voice from a balcony near the top of The Crystal Spire. "Catch!"

Twilight couldn't be entirely sure at this distance, but Cadance seemed to be up on her hinds, and then there was a white missile streaking towards the group. It was emmitting very familiar terrorized screaming. Just in the nick of time Twilight managed to snap a purple kinetic gel barrier into place.

"Rarity? Why did Cadance just hurl you from a balcony?" She asked the bobbing, slowly rotating-to-upright, and now faintly disheveled white mare.

"Eheh... eheh... eheh...," was the awkwardly nervous answer.

That was a cute ending.

The setup for the joke was totally worth the buildup. Reminds me of one of Norm MacDonald’s long-form comedy pieces!

Smooth, Shining. Real smooth. :trollestia:

Lord knows I'm always down for chucking ponies through windows, so I went into this with a slight bias, but this fic was adorable. Sometimes, you feel like writing a fic just for a silly joke, and that's amazing. :pinkiehappy:

(Although I fully expected "Being a goddess of cookery or a goddess of clothes might not sound like much" to be the thing that got him dropkicked from the fifth floor. :raritydespair:)

You can say Rarity is a Pony with a funny face.
She can hoof stand,when she needs to.
And stretch her generosity, just for you!

H-how does anypony in the courtroom even understand a giant crab defense lawyer? How in Celestia's name did a giant crab even GET a license to practice law??? Discord had a paw in this, didn't he!

I don't have enough popcorn for this show...

Silly, I like it :twilightsmile:

I'm not going to say Discord *isn't* involved.

As for the crab, link.

The final boss for Level 20 characters:

11104430
Or the side secret joke boss that the dm made in the story went off road way too much

It's 3am.

Rambling Writer you made me belly laugh you pr*ck :rainbowlaugh:

I can hear the missus coming now I'm done f

OMG that ending :rainbowlaugh:🤣😂

Which just makes it all the more hilarious, considering she already had ALL of the context building up to that moment. :rainbowlaugh: Somepony's got a hair trigger, certainly.

I had hoped, based on the title, that this would include my creation Slash Defenestrate, the evil counterpart to Flash Sentry. But to be fair, he's not well known, and that's an awful lot of me to ask for from the universe anyway.

Rarity’s eye twitched, and suddenly, Shining was flying out the window.

Hmm… Yeah, I can’t tell why he was thrown out the window either.

I can’t help but feel that someone may just be a fan of Munchkin... :trixieshiftright:

I'm always up for a good defenestration, as long as the person in question was deserving of it, especially if it starts a 30 years war between completely unrelated states and is somehow bloodier than the two world wars.

I feel like this clip has the same energy as this story

i'd pay actual money for Kirins & Cultivation to be a real thing, tbh!

Heh. Well, as bad as getting chucked out a window might be, imagine how mortified Rarity will be once she figures out what actually happened.

She’s friends with Twily, she knows over a dozen different martial arts. And she knows each at a different skill level, just so she can wear all the different belt colors at once and still be Proper.

I can't tell if this is peak Rarity, or if she'd insist on training all of her disciplines to equal competence so the belts would match.

... Ah. The perils of RPG terminology. It's like when you tell a Final Fantasy player that Exalted has Limit Breaks and they get excited, only far worse.

Lovely little tale. Thank you for it.

“Yeah, that’s probably for the best. Go to the start of character creation and I’ll help you along.” Shining passed Rarity a blank character sheet and cleared his throat. “You start off your adventure,” he intoned, “as a young mare or stallion, not yet a full adult, new to the very idea of cultivation and a completely blank slate. You have no Talent, no Class, no Art, no Style, and no Grace.”

:facehoof: Shining, dude

That ttrp sounds like the coolest one in existisence. Is it based on any real one?

It's not his fault Rarity wasn't smart enough to realize Shining was talking about her character. She only proved she has none of those qualities, though, by throwing him out the window.

*faceplants* :rainbowlaugh::rainbowlaugh:

I'll haunt you, Rambling!
