Cupcakes survivor


Well, you see I like grim dark and ships. So I like to combine them in a recipe that tastes bittersweet and evil. These cupcakes are meant for baking and that's just what I'm gonna do.

This story is about pinkie pie gaining her apprentice applebloom in the sargent sprinkles art of cupcakes. This is a tale of a young foals journey through a shop of horrors to find out the true meaning of destiny.

1426919 The horror!

Also, there is some SERIOUS lack of proper capitalization going on in here. And in some places where it's used, it's not even correct.

It is human nature to seek culpability in a time of tragedy. It is a sign of strength to cry out against fate, rather than to bow one's head and succumb. Inevitably many will fault the hands upon the sword that felled Fimfiction, the moderators. But the moderators merely perform the duties of their office. To further fear them is redundant; to hate them, heretical. Those more sensible will place responsibility with those who forced the hands of the moderators. With some fortune, they may foster this hatred into purpose, and further rule their own fate by coming to the Emperor's service.

Um, I REALLY don't think this should be rated Teen... It's more Mature to me...

Okay, I'm very, very tired. Therefore, I'm in the perfect mood to review for grammar and spelling.

This story is about pinkie pie gaining her apprentice applebloom in the sargent sprinkles art of cupcakes. This is a tale of a young foals journey through a shop of horrors to find out the true meaning of destiny.

First off, Pinkie Pie should be capitalized, Applebloom should be capitalized, and make sure you have Sergeant Sprinkle's name spelled correctly. 'foals' should have an apostrophe between the l and s. The first phrase is unclear, I suggest trying a few different rewordings to make it flow better. Also, you start both sentences of your description with 'This', which is repetative, and thus not flowing.

First sentence of the chapter:

Pinkie pie had just finished up with Rainbow Dash, she needed to go upstairs to get some sewing needles

Good, you capitalized the names correctly. But you need to separate these sentences, or add a connector. You can say 'Rainbow Dash. She needed' or 'Rainbow Dash and she needed' or even 'Rainbow Dash, but she needed'

Second sentence:

She was still covered in Dash’s blood, oh the sweet taste lined her lips.

This sentence, in of itself feels awkward. Try expanding it, maybe something like:
"She was still covered in Dash's blood. She licked her lips, running her tongue across the sweet liquid"
If you want to, look up horse blood types, and try to find the appropriate functional groups and proteins that create the specific taste. I personally doubt you'll take advantage of this, but research is always good, and may give you more ideas.

Keep doing something similar, or find someone else who can do something similar to what I, the TWE folks, and anyone else are doing, and you'll be able to fix most of the grammatical errors, if not all.

Now for the ideas. You seem to have a reasonably original idea, but you don't go anywhere with it. Right here:

About an hour in, Apple Bloom must have lost her mind. Because the jokes Pinkie pie was making were funny… really funny. She got particularly giggly after she removed his back hooves and strapped them to her own hooves and pretended to be princess Celestia.

:unsuresweetie: Come on! I want to see Applebloom's gradual degredation from her own personality to this deranged, murderous filly! You could create an entire fanfic JUST about Applebloom's psychological trauma at Cupcakes Pinkie's hooves.

It's very difficult to get a pony to go from 'normal' to 'homicidal psychopath' in a single hour.

Lastly, this right here:

It was midway through the week when Rainbow Dash began to melt,

Umm, ponies don't melt. Ponies decompose. Unless you want to describe a difference in the biology between these magical little equines and the species of our world, then Dash won't melt.

Aaaaaaanyway, having started a 'sequel' of my own, for better or worse, I won't complain about you writing a 'cupcakes 2', as that would be hypocritical.

Good luck!

Yet another Pinkamena fic and a Cupcakes sequel at that. We have so many of these that it's basically a genre so yours better stand out.

The smallest, was Applebloom, Apple Jack’s little sister,

Not starting off well. Red to remove, blue to add, purple is a correction and green is a comment.

The smallest, was Applebloom, Applejack’s little sister, she noticed Pinkie first. Luckily Pinkie had the sense to remove her cape of cutie marks before going up stairs. Shouldn't this have been mentioned before she ascended the stairs? Pinkie Pie screamed What! Why?which made the fillies run, tripping over each other trying to get out of the shop. No, really. Why did Pinkie scream and why didn't the CMCs ask her what was wrong?Cutie Mark Crusader Psychologists Yeah! Applebloom ended up being run over by the others and was still on the floor when the scuffle ended, Why wouldn't the others help Applebloom? she gasped and looked up at pinkie pie.

“That’s the sweetest cherry sauce ah ever tasted!” She actually licked all the way up to Pinkie’s shoulder before she snapped out of it.

So ponies are made of marshmallow?

Ah bet it would be great in Apple Jacks Pies.” She jumped up and down.

Oh, okay. Apple Jack Pies is a brand or a new character or something?

She posed Rainbow Dash and had a conversation with her, it was mostly about how she would become a wonder bolt..ahh just like old times.

This line just reeks of potential. You could write a really creepy, great scene based on Pinkamena having a conversation with a now-inanimate object. (Strangely enough, that would also be canon in-character for Pinkamena)
Instead you've just glossed over it in a line. You could write an entire story based on that moment.

He was on the farm for the Winter Wrap Up this year. The event should be capitalised, like Christmas.

The pony woke up and had about the same reaction she did, Something about this line feels awkward. Almost Tab A into Slot B awkward.

“Yeah you’re riaght that is rude! He’s not even old laike granny smith!” She took the syringe Pinkie offered her and plunged it into the stallion’s chest.

Oh Luna, what? Is this you trying to write an accent? We know how Applebloom speaks, we dun need yer wraitin' all fancy-laike.

So you seem to have the whole 'writing' part down but you don't seem to know what you're writing. Go back and read Sgt. Sprinkles' work. You've glossed over all the gore that Sgt. carefully described so as to better squick us out, not to mention the lack of disturbing imagery. Applebloom just accepts the whole deal over the course of half-an-hour with basically no second thoughts. No, really, your narration make it seem like Pinkie goes to work and, suddenly, psycho!

Here's my advice: Don't write Cupcakes 2: Electric Boogaloo. Write something original. Use Pinkamena if you can't justify breaking a different character but don't write Cupcakes: The Quickening.

We are the walls of Hell.

No please, no more cupcake sequels and wananbes. Let the dam thing die and be forgotten about. I don't think anyone wants more Cupcakes related stuff.

“That’s the sweetest cherry sauce ah ever tasted!”

Umm... have you ever tasted blood? It's a metallic taste. Not at all sweet.

Applejack. Not Apple Jack

Missed capitalizations. Everywhere. And also

Right when the Stallion lost consciousness she unlocked Apple Bloom

Stallion doesn't need a cap.

About an hour in, Apple Bloom must have lost her mind. Because the jokes Pinkie pie was making were funny… really funny. She got particularly giggly after she removed his back hooves and strapped them to her own hooves and pretended to be princess Celestia.

said this section was much too short.


Anyhow. Added. Prepare the cavalry charge.

God dammit! Why did I have to find this right before classes start? I wanted to tear this thing a new one! Damnit! I'll see you during lunch. Prepare.

I found this difficult to clop to.

Thanks that's actually quite helpful, sorry about the little opener, I wasn't really sure what to put there as I have never really out up on a site for just ponies. I really enjoyed the criticism, seriously thank you. :pinkiehappy:

:pinkiesad2: sorry guys... I guess I didn't realize how much people would tear apart my grammar.:ajsleepy: This was just a few little mistakes looked over by someone who had to read it alone because none of her literate pony friends wanted to check it off before she put it up. Again sorry to those who didn't enjoy it and thank you to those who did.:pinkiesmile:

1426931 -So and so of the so and so chapter, 2 hours before virus bombing

Thats totally bucking rad, dood! :pinkiecrazy:

I'm going to have to write my own cupcakes version. :rainbowwild:

i love gore fics like this,could have used some more detail,and the story could have been just a bit longer,but other than that the story is fantastic :twilightsmile:

Well_- written, decent storyline, but when it comes to the storyline...

Now I need to make a cupcake one! That's going to be 4 stories at once! I already have 3, but now I need to make a cupcake one before I forget! Make another one, were they make another apprentice or the other crusaders numbers are picked. :pinkiecrazy:

Good for Apple Bloom! I love this just cause of that!

Me: *sees pinkie picture* :duck: *pretends to be google*
Me: Did you mean: :pinkiecrazy:
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLO0OLO0L XD:pinkiehappy:pinkiehappy:

Reminds me of scootaloo the sadist except for the reason that she started to help pinkie. I also normally dislike when somepony gets killed
but I somehow seem to enjoy it now.:twilightsmile:

:pinkiegasp: There's a second is it from the same author who wrote the first cupcakes? Im excited to read it! :pinkiehappy:

Gehhh... finished? Wut? :rainbowhuh:

1431524 will you make a sequel (another one)?:pinkiecrazy::pinkiecrazy::pinkiecrazy::pinkiecrazy:

I feel that people do want more Cupcakes related stuff, and that is the magic of personal opinions.

Creeped. Out.

Not necessarily the story., though it was a good thrill, but the fact that a small filly...wants to cause death and destruction. Your father is undoubtedly.....Tirek!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just a bit curious... if humans get another blood type into their body, they die. Does that go for ponies?

In a sick and twisted way this was kind of sweet . . .
