Shift it up! · 1:05am Aug 23rd, 2012
I'm about to be doing a drastic mood shift in all things story-related so agh why do i bother to write this
...
Lemme try again.
I think I'll jump from the increasingly dark series of stories I've done (together with increasing dislikes~) towards a much, much, much, much, much more friendly thing. I'll prolly do anoother speedclop thingy (because I just like to do it) but from there it'll be all sunshine and butterfiles and hallucinations-- wait cut that last part off it leaked
...
Trying again.
Yeah, I'm doing an emotional reverse here. Take the most sugary episode of the show and ask yourself: "How can I make this even more sweet and light?"
I'll show you how as soon as I get the chance to mash my keyboard in a non-rhythmic way.

stop picking up text when i play stepmania you... thing...
Hmmm? I see... Well, I've come around the 50k mark on my OC's story, save the EXTREAME (You don't even know...) amount of editing needed.
Well, I also have a few ponies wanting me to post as I write, seeing as I'm taking to long.
I still want to see how you could POSSIBLY write something much sweeter and softer than an actual episode.
SHOWETH ME!

I for one would welcome for you to post the story as you go; maybe add a little lag between updates so you don't get caught up by time itself...?
No, but seriously, I've been silently waiting and you've done nothing
...just like me!
It would be like taking the Slice of Life genre to its logical extreme, I guess...
I don't know, it would involve ponies having an actual good time with nothing strange happening to them for once, I guess...
postedit: you commented on my story but not on the content itself
and i had thought "the time, it has come"
305445 XD! Oh yea, I'm not doin' nothing. I guess I'll give it a look at then!
About story update things, I think I'll start posting Monday and then a 5k to 7.5k chapter every third day after.
Can you take Slice of Life even farther than its most extremes? This... I must see...
305459
The time... it has come... and so have i wait what are you saying
Sounds good, sounds really good...
I'll be watchin' you. Like a hawk.
Well, you'll have to sit tight then, because there's two other stories after that. Actually, I think there's one that is going to be a blast to write, seeing as the main condition is: (literally, in bold, at the top of the document) "Only write when feeling lightheaded, dizzy, sick, silly and/or technically drunk."
And that's a recipe for either failure or success.
305482 READING... NOW!
You stalker you...
I wanna go with... success?
305489
Is it too late for me to say to brace yourself because winter wrap up is coming...?
There has got to be something I do right... and my best guess is that stalking is that special thing... last thing you know is that that is my cutie mark; now, just hold on a moment while I brainstorm a way to render that.
So far, I think I've done things right. This guy has failed to maintain his sanity twice, and I think he's about to get Daring Do-ed pretty hard. Then he'll get some changelings up on his face just because I'm really nice.
305503 Read it, loved it, liked it, faved it, need more...
305613
You're gonna make me write more
Hold on for a (surely long) while, and I'll surely come up with something. Don't know what, though...
"and I say yes to all of them"
grinned like a madmare here
So, if I ask you if I'm the only one who is willing to take that so-called "stalking" into something else... and if you're okay with it... would you say yes...?
I'll do whatever I can to kickstart that story like it's a kickstarter fund, a heart and other things that I'm certainly missing now.
305628
Fine... I'll wait...
Ummm... I don't think I understood correctly, but yes?
I... don't care?
Whatever?
Everything I say is now a question?
A heart? Pffft... who needs one of those things? Here, take a lung. I think it's Derpy's.
305645
You'll wait, yes, that's a good colt, now let me get this whip thing back in the drawer so we can have a completely normal conversation.
And everything I say now is a run-on sentence, which isn't too bad either, if it weren't for the fact that they aren't exactly too well-seen by others. So, from what I've gathered by your seemingly puzzled response, the answer is a yes.
A lung, ah? I actually think I'd need one-- ah, it has this lovely scent of blood over it... and... I think this part smells like vomit... no, it smells like other fluids... well, not that I'm complaining...
I wonder what Dinky would think of me now. I actually think Raindrops would buck me. Both meanings.
305693 And I'll be sure secretly pester your mind with my telekenetic powers to bother you into writing something like that agian faster. STAREING AT SCREEN, ACTIVATE!
Yes... I can't say no if I don't understand, so just yes...
I'm gonna die now aren't I?
Care for a kidney as well? I mean, I could sell it on the market, but somepony has already brutally violated it far beyond selling conditions...
Take that emoticon how you will...
I don't think Dinky would like you very much. I don't think ANY of the ponies would like us very much at all...
305704
I'm staring at the screen as I'm pushing WAAAY too much pedals and stuff. Huh, who would say that making noise with a cheap microphone would be so fun... and who would have thought I'd be able to make... certain sounds... with nothing but my voice... I'm actually scared.
"I'm gonna die now aren't I?"
You decide that. It's up to you if you die or not...
I know somepony who will take care for that kidney... and that somepony is me~
I agree completely. My best guess is that even Der-- wait, she'd dead...
My best guess is that even Zecora wants me out of "her manure", as she calls it...
305774
You scared yourself? That's new...
Well, I think that if somepony came up and shot me in the heart, the decision whether I would have lived or not might have been in their hooves...
YAY! Liver anypony?
Yep. She be buried in seven different holes.
Maybe even the walls?
Yep. They all hate us...
305820
I actually scared myself...
No, but seriously, next time I try to plaster something along the lines of torture into a microphone, I'll remember to not listen to the recordings after I'm done. I did horrible things.
Might as well start digging your grave, mate.
I've never had liver but... hey, gotta try it. Fling some here~
She's just about everywhere. What I forgot to put in the story was that Dinky was pretty much caked in her mother's remains. ...It was pretty important.
Well, I know Zecora has me on her hit list because of... err, something else...
305865 Horrible, inexplainable, unthinkable things?
No, I caught that. Needed more detail though...
I have Applejack, Twilight, Scootaloo, Rarity, Sweetie Belle... Well, let's just say everypony except Spike. I haven't killed Spike... yet...
305872
I think I just coughed up too much blood after recording a certain part and I forgot to stop the recording, so my voice just went from "i think i'm gonna die" to "i'd slit my throat open to get more of this delicious blood", which is nothing to far out of the ordinary.
I've got, let's see...
A pick and a cart. Nope, out of shovel until I find who has been shuffling and shoveling coal. My best guess is Fluttershy.
Ooh, fancy...
(Aren't you going to eat it?)
Long time no see...
It did, huh... Well, there's always next time.
"I haven't killed Spike... yet..."
you even go as close as to do that and "i'll destroy her" will be so literal
i'll take matters into my own hooves to make sure that you're a she when that happens, though
Well, not really... but that little guy has something that makes me avoid killing him. I'd kill anypony off the mane cast, but not him. Go figure.

Last post of the night here. I'll be going to bed in this very instant, so we'll be seeing someday~
Remember to bring cookies next time, together with Derpy's leg because I'm sure it tastes like heaven itself.
305445>>305459 THERE YOU GO, SHADOW!!!
THAT WAS YOUR THIRD OPINION!!!
Yes...my plan is working...someday, I will brainwash the world!
306533
I actually read Shadow's blog post while making that response
And I thought "well, this is the third opinion here. better get those words ready" before I commented...
Your plan is working like a charm, so please don't ask me to do something because I'll probably do it.
306558 Alright, I won't ask you to do anything...
Now go and do a little jig balancing on a big red rubber ball while holding a goldfish bowl!
hehehehehe
306565
nuuuu i want to write something
But how am I supposed to dance (in the style of the Irish) on a big red rubber ball...? I don't have-- of course I have one; it just appeared as soon as you wrote that. Welp, gon' be doing something with that... I only need a goldfish bowl, but I guess a flower pot will do...
306577 MUST BE FEESH BOWL! FEESSSHHHH--okay, you can use a flower pot. And then you can write while the thoughts are with you...
306582
I'll fill the pot with water and then things are going to get interesting.
I won't lie: I just read the "FEESSSHHHH" with an inflexion that I can't even describe. It was like a growl but high-pitched.
Then I can write? Okay, let's go with this ball... I hope the window is strong enough for it to hold me, because the last thing I want to happen is that I end up filled with glass shards.
306590 Try doing it while singing a happy little tune. I find that helps.
306592
Oh, okay... I'll try it... I'll post the results as soon as I'm done, or something; if I do it, then you'll know...
A happy tune... would the Smile song help...?
306627
Yes.
Nothing happier than a song that helps you through sad stories!
