Weird people, Weird ideas, Creativity · 5:52pm Jun 30th, 2017
To make up for yesterday's blog post on issues with posting chapters (tl;dr Knightly is a lot smarter than I am and already included the features/fixes I was whining about), and in apology for not getting my story done for Jake the Army Guy's Horse Word Extravaganza (darned real world), I'm posting a set of story ideas and descriptions that I will *never* get around to writing. Additions are encouraged, and the more punny, the better. Happy Independence Day, where Americans celibrate their freedom from British taxation without representation by eating German brauts, drinking Canadian beer, and shooting Chinese fireworks.
The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo Artist - Twilight Sparkle moves to Ponyville, bringing along her best friend and inker. Cutie marks will never be the same again.
That One Story With a Pony That I Keep Forgetting Her Name In It - Lyra moves to Ponyville. Nobody notices. Alternative title: Background Music Pony
I’ve Got Yew Under My Skin - Fluttershy finally achieves her dream of becoming a tree
Eternal Mind of the Spotless Sunshine - For the sake of Equestria, Celestia must remain pure and incorruptible. So if she ever gives in to temptation, all traces of it must be erased. Including from her memory.
It's About Thyme: Twilight has to give a lecture on the three tribes' magic in a week. The three tribes. Cue a Canterlot filly who'd never seen a farm before Sweet Apple Acres trying to master a power she's barely even touched. Pray for the poor herb garden.
Muffin to See Here: Sweetie Drops is far from the only secret agent in Ponyville.
Bonfire of Insanities: Burning Mare is already a fairly chaotic event, but it can be so much more. Through means both gross and subtle, Discord directs every party pony he can find to the festival. Care for some popcorn as you watch?
4587752 And the sequel, Thyme Enough for Love - True love knows no boundaries, and when the seven-story herb that Twilight created in a previous episode feels lost and dejected, it's up to the Princess of Friendship to bring some affection into the vegetable's artichoke heart. And maybe love will bloom between the two awkward creatures who feel so out of place in this crazy mulched-up world.
4587742 Pie-rates of the Carob Bean?

Urge to write every single idea....
Rising...
Don't forget its sequel: Elevator Music
After Lyra begins to feel that she can no longer spend her life resigned to being unnoticed and unappreciated, she leaves Ponyville and sets out for where she may be able to make more of herself. But with her absence, many residents of Ponyville sink into a depression: it turns out that Lyra's soft, soothing harping ever-present in the backdrop of their lives had more of an impact on their moods than anypony had ever realized. Can they show Lyra how valuable she really is to them and convince her to come back?
You know there's an extra day in the contest, yes?
4587752 Dang that last one sounds amazing.
4587843 All in one giant fic...
A Million Ways to Fry in Ponyville - Iron Skilet is starting a new shop that will directly compete with Sugarcube Corner. Who will survive the resulting bake/fry-off?
4587970
I would not be opposed to a collection of short fics based around crazy concepts nobody else wanted. "Island of Misfit Stories", we could call it.
Oil Always Remember You - During the Discord War, many of the ponies fighting alongside The Sisters met terrible fates. A chance remark reminds Luna of a soldier turned into an oil painting, and where she stashed it for safekeeping.
P.S. No apologies for the title.
Dye Dye my pony: More ponies than just mayor Mare dye there manes and coats, when Ponyvilles supply of hair dye runs out for unknown reasons more than one pony's true colors are revealed, much to quite a fews embarrassment
4588086 Dairy looked askance at the massive bull who had pushed his way into his family's stable and was currently occupying the kitchen, with bowls and bottles floating around in his magic, which appeared to be controlled by the bright blue aura around his horns. He mixed and stirred, raiding the icebox with frequent motions until he put a large glass of ice cream mixed with what appeared to be crumbled cookies in front of the stunned calf.
She took a glance over her back at her uncle and aunt, who were cowering behind the couch in the living room, with the massive rump of their sole son sticking out from under a cushion as if he had the smallest chance of hiding under anything smaller than a house. Then she looked back at the glass of ice cream, and back up at the furry face of the massive bull.
"Excuse me, sir. What is it?"
"What is it?" bellowed the bull. "Why, you're a Blizzard, Dairy!"
(I'm sorry. Well... No, I'm not.)
The Blueblood Brothers:
Blueblood and Fancy Pants are on a mission from Celestia.
4588501
That one's been done: "Flim And Flam Save An Orphanage". Except they team up with Trixie instead, but Fancy does get a minor role.
Mail Call
Current Resident is a shy, bookish recluse in Vanhoover. Return to Sender is a slinger in the Lunar Garrison stationed at Hollow Shades. A series of humorous mistakes and misunderstandings at the Equestrian Postal Service cause the two to become aware of each other and they begin a long-distance relationship
Gas light fixture - Twilight knows that the sun is a giant ball of gas right but where does that gas come from? It is then she realizes she has never heard Celestia fart.
4598967 Star Light, Star Bite - From here, the stars look so peaceful, but when one of Luna's stars is having trouble and she is too busy to care for it, the task of flying into the night sky and tending to the star's ills falls to Twilight Sparkle.
If only she knew how many teeth the stars have. Long, pointed teeth, with fangs.
