"I'm trying to reestablish myself. Honest."

T

Based off an odd storystorming session of mine, Trixie finds herself on the difficult path in the rain when things worsen as she encounters a Changeling beast that attempts to harm her in her stolen image. However, she also encounters her perceived nemesis Twilight Sparkle, but discovers that maybe vengeance isn't what she needs.

Using artistic license on the Changeling involved (I don't know if they all can do magic, but for the sake of the story, this one can), "Wide Gray Sky" is an experimental story working with the silent and nameless variants where there is no dialogue and the characters are unnamed to put more emphasis on their actions, gestures, and so on. An oddity considering my general dislike of Trixie, but ultimately, a good short story to flesh out in the end.

Before anyone asks, I'm not a Twilight/Trixie (or "Twixie"-that sounds like a candy bar) shipper, although I have read some decent Twixie works. This is just how the story developed. Funny where stories lead, huh?

First time I have ever read something with no words actually spoken. I kinda like it!

Thank you. I just thought it make an interesting exercise. And who would guessed Trixie of all characters would be the focus of this silent narrative?

sry, but my greatest complain is how often 'The Great and Powerful' is written. After halfway through the fic i had to stop.

My apologies for that. Thanks for giving it a look anyway.

Oh boy, a Twixie story! I'd better read it right away!

Phantmare of the Opera

:trixieshiftleft:

I'd flip the table, but I'm in class right now.

Sorry, to be perfectly clear, I hate it when people force pony puns where they don't make any sense. If a word other than "woman" doesn't sound like "mare", don't replace it with "mare". There can be phantom ponies, and female phantoms. "Phantmare" just sounds like some kind of unnatural half-elephant half-pony hybrid.

If you REALLY want to make a pony pun, there are better ways to do it. Since you're already not sticking with "Phantom", why not use a different word altogether as the base? I particularly like the word "ponygeist". And the Phantom of the Opera was really a lot like a poltergeist with a body, wasn't he? A series of violent occurrences directed by an unseen source. The Ponygeist of the Opera.

I'm gonna remove that moronic thing right now. Thank you for notifying me of a really, really stupid mistake.

I read this on fanfiction.net a while back, great to see it here.:twilightsmile:

Sorry the story doesn't suit you. But thanks for giving it a look anyway. :twilightsmile:

nice story. Dunno, I would say that this is nicely as sleeptime story

When you said in the description "Twixie sound like a candy bar" I was laughing so much cause that's exactly what I said when I first saw the ship :rainbowlaugh: Great story, not too lengthy and not too short. Very well done :pinkiehappy: 10/10 Would read again

I was waiting for a twist, like Trixie killed twilight, thinking it was the changeling.

I really liked this!
The whole no talking was interesting. Plus the fact The Usurper eventally became Her Ally was cute.

I gotta say this was definitely one of the more cooler fics I've read.
