The Cutting Edge of My Little Pony Fanfiction · 11:23pm Nov 5th, 2021
As you (yes, you reading this right now) may or may not already be aware, I'm a fan of the strange, the surreal, the avant-garde in all manners of my art/media consumption. While I do hold a certain truth to much of recent modern art being money laundering schemes for the fantastically wealthy, I do think there's a very true artistic integrity to be had in the abstract and conceptual in art. Also sometimes stuff that's just fucking weird is absolutely entertaining in a way that defies description.
So what does that have to do with you (yes, you clicking away from this blog right now because i've taken too long to get to the point)? I want you to give me your weirdest, wackiest, off-the-wall, boundary breaking, envelop pushing, esoteric, mind-boggling fimfiction stories that you know of.
Self-promotion is encouraged. Things that are le epic lolz randumb are not preferred, but not discouraged. Give em here, give em all here.
why, you may ask? allow me to explain.
Well, this was meant to be for Iron Author at EFNW 2018, but I bailed early, and then did everything I could to push it past 1000 words so I could publish it here. It's the only one of my stories that got a "...Wut?" reaction.
- MLP: FiM
- Dark
Rarity intends to make each of her friends a new dress for the upcoming Grand Galloping Gala. No matter the cost…Well damn since you're askin
This one makes great use of Discord's chaos magic. Haunting read, great prose:
- MLP: FiM
- Romance
- Horror
Here's how Fluttershy puts her life in danger: "I love you." Here's how he sentences her to death: "I love you, too."I could recommend any number of Seer's stories (and I'm sure you've read a few), but I think this one is his best as far as breaking conventional rules of structure:
- MLP: FiM
- Drama
"If this is what it means to be a fool, I don't wish to be anything else."And I since I just happened to publish one, here's my own weird story about what it's like to have a migraine:
- MLP: FiM
- Dark
Migraines can be quite bad.Honestly there's not nearly enough stories on here that are batshit in like... And artistic way. And not just an batshit way. I applaud your quest
Well shit I might as well promote my own thing.

This list is incredibly incomplete and put together in a hurry, since I had to skip a lot of stories by some weirdo named Regidar. DM me for more because you know I have them. No self-promo here, everything was cobbled together from a quick glance at two of my high-up bookshelves because I'm in a hurry. Enjoy.
I don't have to...

Rainbow Dash sends a letter to Princess Celestia asking for advice. She hopes to receive information on how to tell Twilight about the small crush she's got for her. What she gets as a reply from the princess is anything but helpful.There, but I think you've already probably read this one, Regi.
I really like Unwhole Hole's stuff. Equal parts funny, headcanon, worldbuilding, and surrealism. Here's a few of my faves. Of these, the first one is probably the closest to what you're looking for.

I might be misreading the room a bit, but I think the point of the OP was to ask for particularly weird or surreal fics, rather than traditional classics? Unless there's a case for all those candidates qualifying as such, and I just haven't understood it right.
5604405
A few of the classics I included on there do incorporate those as core themes or elements of style.
yo if you want some wack stories I've read a couple where horses can talk
