Manehattan Blues is canon [spoilers, duh] · 7:30pm Apr 18th, 2015

"Babs is good at cutting stuff."

“We don’t want trouble,” she said. A knife almost touching Coco’s throat was telling her something different. “We only want your money.”

“Just try, and I’ll feed your balls to ya…” the filly replied, producing a knife from her jacket.

Inb4, garden shears. Even though it was actually Lightning Dust.

This was my first thought when I saw the new episode

:pinkiehappy:

Though now I'm worried if we ever see Babs in the show again...

When I heard her special talent is "cutting things", I too thought of something along the lines of Manehattan blues XD

I'm kind of hoping we get to see the Manehatten chapter of the Cmc just on the incredibly off chance they will resemble her crew from Manehatten Blues

Now all we need is for Diamond Tiara to be an insomniac, and we'll have a full set!

Hmm, seems that my version of Babs is somewhat influential :moustache:

A quiet donkey, a punk, an insane pegasus, and a rich filly who likes bad boys? Who knows :pinkiehappy:

That'd be a very strange coincidence...

Indeed it is :moustache:

>inb4 MLP staff creating G-rated Manehattan Blues :trollestia:

I wonder what'd be left of it in the G-rated version...

2997268 little diamond has sleeping troubles, babs is confrontational like she in her first appearance. Has a little gang like she does in the story, but they just cause some ruckus rather than whacking people. Basically it'll just have the characters and shallow attributes of your characterizations. And they just cause standard teenage rebellion kind of trouble. The major plot change though has to be them being shown the light of friendship by sometime and living happily ever after.

TL;DR they are the very shallow surface of your characters, but they end up doing nothing like your story at all. Which to be honest, taking a good story and ripping it's soul out doesn't seem to far fetched does it?

Wow, even the tl;dr was long. Okay,I know there is some concise way to say this. I just can't think of it right now... :facehoof:

Yeah. It'd probably also have a romantic subplot. Well, technically the original has one, but Nightcap's job isn't exactly G-rated, not to mention the way it ends. And of course, the big bad's method of punishing those who oppose him would have to be changed.

Manehattan Blues was my only thought for that. And I'd love to see someone try and make a G-rated version of the story. That'd be hilarious.

Yeah. When I think about it, probably the tamest parts of the fic are the ones when Babs is at school/talking to her parents, and the epilogue. Everything else has family-unfriendly stuff.
