Why The Flash Sentry Chronicles is the best adaptation fic of the show

I tend to avoid reading any of the adaptation of the show fics cause most of them tend to be exactly same with OC characters just stand there and states the obvious and that's it.... what is the whole point of reading adaptation fic if it's going to be exactly same as the show? (There's some that do make a big change and one of them is pairing Rarity with Prince Blueblood of all ponies.... I never understood that pairing. )

So I came across The Flash Sentry Chronicles series and at first, I didn't want to read it cause it would be another "Exactly same as the show" fic but I give a try and oh my! I feel like I was reading a new story while stay true to the show! I means it's stand on its own while copy and paste the show like most adaptation fics do.

This fic made me care about Flash Sentry and yes, even Soarin because unlike their canon counterpart, they have an actual personality and a cute relationship with Twilight and Rainbow. (I rather have Twilight be with Flash than that damn Timber Spruce!)

Also, the fics have their own storyline and a lot of lores that wasn't in the show! The fics also fix the mistakes from the show like not making Season 6 into "The Starlight Glimmer Show"!

Sure, I know some people like other adaptation fics and my apologizes to anyone who wrote their adaptation fic but in my personal opinion, The Flash Sentry Chronicles is the best adaptation fic.

Thank you, Banshee and KingJoltik for this fic! I can't wait for more Flash Sentry Chronicles stories while try to read the previous stories too!

Now excuse me but I got Timber Spruce to hunt down and I hope he doesn't get Sci-Twi for Flash Sentry Chronicles of Legend of Everfree!

I agree. I have noticed the same problem with most adaptation fics in general. They tend to follow a copy-and-paste format with the biggest "changes" just being a few random OCs thrown in that don't do anything but steal lines from other characters. On this site I noticed a lot of them happen for Friendship Games and Legend of Everfree, where basically the exact same thing from canon happens except for a few ones where instead of Sci-Twi getting with Timber, she gets with Sunset instead.

But Banshee actually puts effort into his stories and makes his own original changes and plot lines. Making them not only the best adaptations fics, but some of the best staring Flash in general.

Yeah, that was my big issue with Adaptation fics but I glad Banshee made Flash Sentry Chronicles his own thing and not do copy-and-paste stuff like most authors do.

Regarding Legend of Everfree, Banshee is planning to sunk the ship between Sci-Twi and Timber Spruce for his take on that movie. (So yeah, unlike other fics on that one, this one won't have her ends with Timber or Sunset).

I don't like when people write adaptation fic when they copy and paste the show and change nothing. But there some I don't mind like this one writer who write the episodes, but you can tell in most of his episode rewrite is much different then the episode and the episode his dislike. He completely rewrites it to suit his story. Been a while since I read his story, but it's one of those I don't mind reading again.

Also others there is an adaptation fanfic that the writer write the episode and follow the time line, but never write every episode and forces on the world itself which I enjoy. Also, he use some background character to have a bigger role
