Zecora

I really like this zebra character. But I can't write her. I can't write rhythm speak. What's more, she is quite likely the first person you will encounter in Equestria if you spawned in the Everfree Forest. She may be your lifeline.

Can you write Zecora? And do you like her in general?

I lust after her really like her!
Her rhyme speak can be intimidating and certainly calls to be creative with things, which is part of the fun.
I wrote a clopfic starring her, and that was sure an interesting experience.

So do I. She's really thicc.

PM a link to your story?

I’ve strangely never had a problem writing Zecora’s dialogue. If you’re ever in need of some help, hit my DMs.

And yes, I imagine Zecora’s a cocktail-beside-a-fire-pit kind of pony.

I'll consider that, thanks.

I love Zecora, been thinking of writing a fic with her as a main character.

And yes, she's thicc.

Zecora is great, a feast for the eyes.
Willing to help, no matter your size.
So when writing out this zebras speech,
There is much that she can teach.
Potions and brews that expand the mind,
Or delicate powders that aid in kind.
Here is a hint just for you,
That will tell you what to do.
To tame this exotic forest mare,
Plant your face on her derrière.

Or, something like that. I really love Zecora too, and I find her style of speech fun to work with personally.
If you struggle, you can try doing normal sentences and then reworking them using a rhyme website. Thats what I do when I need words.

Don't know much about Zecora, but she seems pretty cool.

No, I can't write her. I'm too amateur for that.

I really love her and she really doesn't speak in rhymes all the time
A recent official example is from the Season 10 comic where they went into her backstory and how she sees rhymes as 'magic' since she was really fond of magic

I really like her as a character and wanted to use her for my next story along side the other main lead but unfortunately I can't write rhymes for dialogue for the life of me lmao

[TheAncientPolitzanian]

The one story I've tried writing that features her hasn't been finished yet, but all in all, I actually don't have that hard of a time writing her lines.

And yes, I do like her as a character — I mean, I probably wouldn't be trying to write a story around her if I didn't, y'know what I mean?
:)

I love Zecora very much and I think the rhyme is her attempt to use magic or look mysteries. It is better to use when you feel like it.

Indeed she is.

Thanks for the advice.

You seen the episode she was in?

I suppose. But I feel in fan fiction land it cheapens her character if she doesn't rhythm speak.

Same as me. Be the same case for Luna, I mostly make her speak normally, but sometimes using old words.

I wish you good luck with your story.

Might be a good idea. Sometimes she speaks normally, other times in rhyme.
