Nothing special here, move along, nothing to see, just ignore the lump under the sheet and the red stuff...

War, Famine, and Pestilence await their last member so the Apocalypse may properly begin. The only problem is he’s tied up in a meeting with his editor. What is he writing? Um. Look! A moose!

Can Pinkie Pie assuage the impatience of the remaining Horsemen of the Apocalypse with cupcakes until their last member finishes his work of Equestrian Literature?

Inspired by Binky Pie which was written by Miyajima of FimFiction.net
(Done! And we all waited so patiently.)

With editing special assistance that does not involve editing by Bad Horse, Maskedferret, Daniel and other unnamed individuals who have not been dismembered by War, or eaten by his horse. Honest.

Staking out the first comment for author notes. No ponies were harmed (*) in the production of this fic. Contents may be habit forming. I would like to extend special thanks to Bad Horse, Maskedferret and Daniel for their assistance for turning this from a bright idea, into a brilliant story. I would also like to thank Miyajima, who drove(1) me to this, and Pinkie Pie, who has constantly saved the multiverse more often than Celestia.


(*) For a certain definition of "harmed"
(1) If 'driving' can be defined as 'strapping somepony into the seat of a semi loaded with nitro and pushing it off a cliff'

One encouraging comment does not a kidnapping-with-explosives make!

“If it ain’t the pre-reader, it’s a damned editor. Ought to go out there and chop them all into horsemeat.”

So, being that Miyajima showed me this for reasons you might guess, I have to say that I feel somewhat threatened by this above sentence. *cough*

Marvellous work! You need to write a dedicated comedy of your own, I bet it'd be hilarious.

Awesome. I wonder if Murray is the talking skull from the Monkey Island series? :pinkiehappy:

One of the best pieces of fanfiction for fanfiction I've ever read. I love how the Horsemen are less malicious than they are proud of their work, and Pinkie was utterly delightful. Thank you for this.

This... was not what I expected. Great story. ^^

Pinky is such a good Death pony.

Looking forward (patiently) to more Bill Door x Fluttershy as well.

Oh god, this goes so well with my recent Darksiders obsession.

And then Discord joined them, and they all went off to fight the Auditors.

New Georg story? Yaaaaaay!! *kermit flail*

Oh yeah, that was just fantastic.

I just realized the cover art is a cutified version of the III Corps Phantom Warrior, the only difference is that there is an eagle instead of a caltrop on the shield.

4422794 Well, it's based off the classic Frazetta picture "Death Dealer", so I don't know if the statue or the picture came first.

"Anyone for whom “The Death Dealer” evokes memories of Conan the Barbarian wouldn’t be far from the source of inspiration for the creator of what has become a symbol of the lethal power and maneuverability of a heavy armored corps.

Frank Frazetta, an artist whose illustrations have given form to characters the public has come to associate with Buck Rogers, Flash Gordon and Tarzan, in addition to Conan, created “The Death Dealer” to illustrate the cover of southern rock band Molly Hatchett’s 1978 debut album.

The III Corps connection with Frazetta’s art was made in 1985, when then Lt. Gen. Crosbie Saint obtained Frazetta’s permission to use “The Death Dealer” as a symbol for III Corps. In 2009, the Frazetta Family commissioned Deep in the Heart Foundry in Bastrop to build a Phantom Warrior statue.

Tuesday morning, the three-dimensional fiberglass statue of an 18-hands tall Shire draft horse mounted by an imposing, 6-foot, 6-inch warrior was unveiled in the West Atrium of its headquarters by the corps’ commander, Lt. Gen. Rick Lynch.

Lynch has used the Phantom Warrior to reinforce the identity of III Corps to its Soldiers, the Army and nation.

After the unveiling ceremony, Lynch’s wife, Sarah, cut a ribbon dedicating the Phantom Warrior Room, which contains information and photographs about the corps’ history and accomplishments during both world wars and in the ongoing Global War on Terrorism."

Did...

Did Sir Terry reincarnate or something?

That was amusing.
