    Fiddlebottoms's Stories (10)


    After conquering yet another ancient evil, Twilight returns to her library. There, she encounters the ghost of King Sombra, who delivers a terrible warning about the dangers of helping emopones.

    A touching, heartfelt tragedy, except it was written by Fiddlebottoms, so it is not.

    Good thing the store's open late. For some reason, I just realized how much I need a Friendship Express

    Nope, sorry Twilight. There is no escape. History is going to repeat itself now, and you're just going to have to live with it.

    YOU HAVE JUST EXPLAINED EVERYTHING EVER.

    I'm going to go back to crying now.

    Thanks. A bunch of personal stuff has been going on this week, so I didn't have editing time for this one.

    Also, you're the best critic on repetitions, so was Sombra's too much? I wanted to give him a verbal tic (like "once more"), but couldn't decide on one. Right now, he just gets a new phrase every couple paragraphs and runs it into the ground.

    Sombra gets a 1% royalty on all sales of the Friendship Express. Please purchase one, he needs to buy the rest of his metal shirt.

    Ok, now that' I've read this story, allow me to revise my previous statement.

    I'm IN love with you, Fiddlebottoms.

    Even when you're writing comedic parodies, you still have that touch of a madman's jester. I applaud you, Champagne of Shame.

    When I started writing this, the first thing I thought of was "Zero," (specifically, the part about "I'm in love with my sadness. Bullshit fakers, enchanted kingdoms") for the Crystal Ponies. But the story is mostly about Sombra, and I think the melodramatic martyrdom of "Bullet with Butterfly Wings" fits him better.

    Plus, "Despite all my rage, I'm still just a rat in a cage," is just so ... :rainbowkiss:

    I'm IN love with you, Fiddlebottoms.

    No gay stuff, though. Well, unless you want to.

    >>1627317

    Crystal Ponies ... Crystal Dimension. Made sense to me.

    I'd have to side with the Crystal Ponies on Tree Trunks, though. Episodes with her are like seeing your grandmother in a strip club.

    But Tonight Tonight... so melodic. :rainbowkiss:

    XYU has dat unbridled rage.

    1979 is pretty decent too. The whole album... gold.

    And maybe some gay stuff. But only a little.

    “Oooh, Spike,” she called upstairs, “there’s a visitor requesting the savior of the Crystal Empire!”

    :rainbowlaugh: that was funny.

    I like this story a whole lot. Have a dollar.

    I don't have a dollar, go find one.

    Sorry Twilight, your plan won't work because Spike is underage so he can't buy the beer.

    This was very funny, witty, and deserving of a fourth adjective to describe it.

    Kudos.

    Some spiteful part of her brain smiled at the idea that, even though he was immortalized in stain glass, he still slept less than inch from the floor.

    I believe the term you're looking for is "stained glass".  "Stain glass" isn't a valid phrase that I'm aware of.

    The mopey, personality-less, and thoroughly disappointing Crystal Ponies deserve to be made fun of, them and their tiny ewes.  Have a fave and upvote.

    Well.... Except that there was no friendship express back then (new invention, ya know?), seems about right. :rainbowlaugh:

    Wait... There is other solution too.

    Look like crystal ponies and woe with those who returned. I.e just send them back with nothing. :twilightsmile:

    Oh... That would be bad thing to do, right? And bad things are done by Sombra and the like. :twilightoops:

    A wobbly start, but once the story finds it's stride, it's gold.

    Agreed.

    If you want booze, help me sort these books. I'll pay you, and then you can go get booze. Otherwise, shut up and GTFO.
