The Battle of the Crazies · 6:43am Apr 1st, 2012
So... I've tried to start a new fic. The idea is pretty simple. Pinkie Pie of "Cupcakes" fame and Twilight get into this epic fight, Freddy vs. Jason style.
It's also got a bit of "The Crazies" in it. Of course.
Not sure if I'll go for more of the new one, or George Romero's. Prolly the new one.
I also wanted a human to appear in the fic, as the person trying to get Twilight and Pinkamena under control. Well, I was struggling on how the heck I was gonna get him into Equestria in the first place, and I decided that he gets sucked into the fic that he himself gets some other authors to help him on. RatherHomely's character, Author, is one of them. The other one was going to be either a cheap knock off of Ponyman, or Sergeant Sprinkles, since they're the main authors to work on "Parchments" and "Cupcakes", respectively. But... I hit a wall. Here's what I got so far. If you think you can help, it'd be appreciated.
Oh, and fuck April Fool's Day. My mama died on this day, four years ago. Kinda ruins the fun.
Anyways, the story:
Chapter One: Mods Awake, this sucks
Click. Click-click-clickity-click-clack-cli-click. "Tom, you've got a phone call."
Click click click-click-click. "... Uh-huh."
Clicliclick. "It's Seth."
Click-click....... Click. "Really."
Tom sighed, grabbing the phone. "Hey, Seth. How's it going?"
The person on the other end of the phone chuckled. "Well. I'm doing well, Tom. How's Rarity doing?"
Tom gritted his teeth. "Oh, lemme check." Cupping his hand to the side of his mouth, he called out. "Ohhh, Raaaarrritieeeeee! How are you doing?" He waited a second before deadpanning into the phone, "she's fine. Now, what d'ya want?"
Seth chuckled again. "I'm willing to offer you fifty dollars extra for your website. Limited time offer. I know that your time's almost up."
Tom ground his teeth as he seethed. He could practically hear Seth's smirk. "Well, Tom? It's a good offer, yes?"
"Yeah. It's a great offer. Fan-fucking-tastic. I can't believe I ever did anything for you. I'm the one who got you into the Goddamned show, man. And you go and take all my hard work and brush it off. What the hell, dude." Tom sighed, trying his hardest not to yell or curse. Calming a little, he speaks a little softer. "I don't want your money, Seth. I just want people to see my site..."
"Well, I'll tell you what. If you can get ten more people to sign up to your site, or get one fic written that passes moderation onto EqD, then I'll link your site, okay? You've got until the end of next month to do so. Hope you succeed, heh heh."
Tom set the phone down and sulked. How was he going to write a fanfic? Seth knew he wasn't a writer. And he knew that ten people wouldn't even find his site in a month if he left it up to chance. Sighing, he started searching. He needed a few authors to help him write this fic. Maybe they could get a few others to foin his site, even. Now, he only needed to find some authors that were good, but not out of his commissioning range...
Author was typing away at his computer when it pinged. "Huh. Why do you claim to have mail for me? I never get mail." Checking his inbox, he was surprised to see an email that wasn't spam. "What's this? I got an email? Hmmm... let's see... looking for authors... want to show up Seth... willing to pay for commission... wait. Show up Seth, eh? If it's the Seth from Equestria Daily, then I'd love to join in. Hahaha! Finally, I'll show him for not taking my fic seriously! I'll write a new one for this guy, and rub it in Seth's Trixie-lovin' face!" Author's eyes gleamed as he started his reply.
"Hmmm... Seth from EqD, eh? Sure. I'll join. But only for twenty bucks. I'm a hard working person, after all..." Tom frowned as he read the short reply. "No name. Weird. Oh, well. At least I have two people with me. Everybody else is apparently too busy with their stupid fics for Seth's site." Tom grumbled to himself. "Alright, mister mysterious. You, me, and Author need to get together and figure out what we're gonna write. If you have Skype, add Tom_NOT-the_Rock. Author's Skype is Rather..." Tom muttered under his breath, his friend Sam watching him work.
Sam thought to herself, I hope this all works in your favor, Tom... You deserve a little recognition. She turned and walked off, going upstairs to get some air. The basement was starting to get a little stuffy.
53083 What, the 'spider' one? That's one I 'came up' with when I was like, four. And it always worked on her.
Another joke I made when was about that age was "Why did the tree fall down? Because it cut itself". I'm more of an instant joker than a planned joker.
I'm way better at thinking on my feet, so if I ever become a pony, I'll think five times faster!
My mother's ghost actually haunts our old house. The renters freaked out when they saw her in their self-taken Christmas pictures. We got one from them, and you could see her face right in the middle, above the kids' heads. It was just her face, slightly distorted, in a picture. But dammit, I know it was her. I've had too many encounters with ghosts to not know one when I see one.
And before you cry BS, how else would you explain a giant oven that's bolted to the ground suddenly sliding forward a foot, right at you?

Look, I dunno why you're using the "okay" faic. What did I say? Seriously? I was trying to be cordial, and not chastise you. Did I fail, somehow?
Anyways, what'd you think of my story there? Worth keeping?
53094 Oh, about the story...
