Actually, that whole segment between Discord and Lyra is a direct rip-off of Morpheus' "Oldest Game" battle of riddles with a demon in Hell from Neil Gaiman's Sandman Vol 2 #4 (I had to look it up; I never finished The Sandman).
I was afraid of being accused of plagiarism, so I had Discord make some horse pun about Lyra having read "The Sandmare" or something in order to imply that the chapter was more of an *homage*.
Sadly, I have been and shall always be known as that "sweaty verbose empty-headed tryhard" from the early literary flounderings of 2011-2012. Most of my stuff since then has been pulp and crack!fiction, and then since 2019 I've dabbled (and failed) in fetish shiet. But...
Original sin, dreit?

Anyways, I wanna see one of y'all commit this hard to cringe.

Honestly, I don't understand how this is cringe.
Now, if that was an over-the-top happy G-rated early 90's animated film, that'd be a different matter.
Shout out to Allen civil for recording the Kick-Ass horn solo. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alan_Civil
Part of the Trinity of Rock ballad horn solos with the other two being on "you don't always get what you want" by The rolling Stones and "After the Gold Rush" by Neil Young
It's cringe to show off the things you like in fanfiction, which in itself is a bigger tribute to a thing you like that may contain smaller threads of things you like? What?
Just write out the things you like so they don't infest your brain and keep you up at night. If you want to reference something, why the heck not?
I'm just here to vibe to a Beatles' song.
I wonder if being an artistic person can be akin to dooming yourself to pushing a stone up a mountain-As you tend to subtly equate your existence based on the quality of your product, and you always know you can do better.
Verbose? Sure. Tryhard? Definitely. Sweaty? Probably. Empty-headed? Please. A library's worth of horse literature does not come from an empty head.
