Tell Your Tale 1-4 (my reactions)

1. A Home to Share

"It's going to be iconica." What does iconica mean?
Pipp is Rarity with her sofas.
Robots? Didn't the last robot almost kill Izzy?
"Just stop!" Sunny speaks? Let's all be surprised at that.

2. Zipp's Flight School

Zipp in a furtight bodysuit? No professional flying without it, right? I gotta see this.
Derpy Hooves reincarnation?
Double roulette twist. A few days ago, not even Zipp could fly. So why does she know what that is? Did she just make that up by herself? Why would anypony know about it then?
"Not you, Windy?" Didn't they just meet? How does Zipp know her name?
I watched the obstacle course frame by frame and Zipp failed it. She entered the second circle from the wrong direction. Go to Flight school, Zipp!
And why is drawing part of the obstacle course?
"You're up, Thunder." I guess I missed the introductions.
"Zepherina, don't give up!" What kind of evil mother would set up her child to fail? She knew flying is impossible! Oh, wait, it's not a flying lesson.
"Day ends at five?" I did not know that.
Derpy2 skipped the second circle as well. You're a lousy teacher, Zipp!
Afraid of daisies? Suffer the choker of daisies! Oh, you're okay with that for some reason? I guess that's fine too...
You don't need a sonic rainboom to form rainbows? Headcanon ruined. I guess the other headcanon must be true then. Rainbows form when pegassi pee in the air.
Where is my Zipp in a furtight bodysuit? You have to have a uniform, Zipp. Wear it. Wear it!

3. Sisters take flight

Why so many clothes if they never wear any?
Why was just one suitcase so packed and the other ones weren't?
Why isn't the royal family imprisoned?
Why is Zipp camera-shy?
Wait, Zipp is going to be a queen? I thought her sister Pipp was more of a royal material.

4. Nightmare Roommate

So, what happened to that crazy stranger-danger metal guy?
Stupid flying fabric...
Line-of-sight for the usage of magic headcanon ruined...
How did the same spray make hair straight on Zipp and wavy on Izzy?
"...clean my ears like Sunny..." Wait, so that wasn't a toothbrush?
Why was Izzy the first to go to sleep if the rest haven't slept for over 30 hours?

Something not right here.

[RandomCommentor]

Sus.

[Bad Dragon]

5649253 What's not right here?

5649256 I dindo nothin wrong!

[Darth Wrex]

5649261
How did this happen

[Bad Dragon]

5649262 You mean the low-budget, low-graphic, different voice-actors flash show?

[Darth Wrex]

5649263
No, the hatred, the paranoia, the fear. How did it happen?

[Bad Dragon]

5649266 What are you referring to?

[Darth Wrex]

5649270
The movie

[Bad Dragon]

5649272 Oh, I can tell you about that. It was all for a good reason, you see?

Sunny Starscout The Destroyer

Flurry Heart went supernova and killed half of Equus.

After that, it was decided that different races shouldn't mingle with each other anymore because it could spell the end of the world if another Alicorn was born. Just to be sure, all magic was entrapped into 3 crystals. With these two seals in place, the safety of the world was ensured.

The world lasted for hundreds of years. But then Sunny Starscout The Destroyer of The World ruined everything and the world burned.

The Story of How 3 Races Got Seperated

Princess Celestia brought harmony to Equestria.

Then Twilight Sparkle took over.

It is common knowledge that books aren't ordered by harmony or by friendship. They're ordered alphabetically. Twilight didn’t just know this fact, she enforced it.

In order to make Equestria orderly, Twilight assigned everypony a number and put them in their place. And she was anything if not thorough.

She formed 4 categories: Earth ponies, Pegassi, Unicorns and Alicorns

For maximum order, she forced each pony to migrate to a designated geographical location of that pony’s race. And that’s how all races got seperated.

Argyle Starshine was the first to escape the closed system and managed to save some of the ponies whose names started with the letter ‘A’. Among them was Alphabittle Blossomforth.

[Darth Wrex]

5649278
Seriously?

[Bad Dragon]

5649283 Okay, maybe they just wanted to make themselves more boring and less likely to be experimented on.

“I’m still thinking about our last experiment,” the lead scientist said to her assistant. “This is so very perplexing.”

“Tell me about it...” he sighed, scratching his head. “The laws of physics in this subspace must be way different than in this universe. First, we pulled out the sort of particle that could break matter. Then one that could defy gravity. The third one could affect matter at a distance. This last particle was a pure paradox. It had the features of all three!”

The lead scientist slapped her appendages together. “Given this new information, we need to test a lot more particles to get to the bottom of this… ‘magic’, even if we have to hijack all the particles from the subspace along with their underlying principles that connect them. Good thing we caught this ‘Twilight’ particle. If it wasn’t for that, we’d probably stick with the first working hypothesis and would have cut off the subspace interference by now.”

---

5 minutes earlier…

In the middle of a conversation with her friends, Alicorn Princess Twilight Sparkle got teleported to a dark room.
She lit up her horn and saw walls all around her. There were voices coming from beyond.
“We have another one of the active particles.”
“Hello!” Twilight yelled.
No response.
There was dust in the air. She found it hard to breathe. Her horn light faded as she lost her focus.
“I’m not detecting the emissions anymore,” the voice said.
A second voice chimed in. “Trust me, it’s still there, its mass is still showing on the scanner.”
She lit up her horn again.
“The particle is active again,” the first voice said.
“See, I told you it’s there. You shouldn’t rely just on one measurement. Remember when we had an inactive particle that could lose its mass? It only gained it back after the energy infusion.”
Twilight flapped her wings, gaining height in an attempt to find cleaner air that didn’t taste like ash.
“The mass; it’s gone!” The second voice said “What does the activity say?”
“Also gone,” the first voice said. “This quantum physics is really mind-boggling. The particles seem to have a mind of their own.”
“I’m not a particle!” Twilight screamed at the top of her lungs. “I have to make them see...”
She lit up her horn, mid-air.
“It’s showing activity now,” the first voice said. “What about the mass?”
“Still missing.”
Twilight lit up her horn repeatedly while periodically flying off the ground and falling down.
“We must be missing something,” the second voice said. “It feels as if there is something more than just a particle. If I didn’t know better, I’d almost think it’s alive. We have to figure this out!”
Twilight sighed, pleased that she managed to draw their attention to her presence.
“Should I start the energy infusion?” the first voice asked.
“Indeed. We need to gather more data. To think we were going to release the particle after just gathering its mass. It would have been such a waste!”
The walls got hotter.
“No, no, no, no!” Twilight panicked. The temperature was rising fast. She felt the pain all over her body increasing. It was do or die. “I’m getting out of here.”
Energy blast from her horn hit against the wall. She channeled more and more magic into it.
“It’s reacting!” the first voice yelled. “The energy levels are off the charts. Should I stop the energy infusion?”
“No, let’s see how long its illumination lasts under the energy implantation. We need to learn more!”
Sweat on Twilight’s coat was turning into steam. Her blast wasn’t penetrating. It only added to an already unbearable temperature. Her concentration faltered. Her horn light faded.
“Interestingly, the reactive luminescence time is almost the same as with other active particles.” The second voice said. “The energy levels don’t seem to correlate with life-span.”
“Should I stop with energy insertion?”
“Keep it up for a few more cycles in case we’ve missed something. After that, purge the chamber for new particle testing.”
It’s a good thing that this particle was so reactive. Due to this data, we need to establish a large data pool. We need to test many more particles.
Can you imagine that we almost shut this project down? Good thing we came across this particle

[Darth Wrex]

5649285
You done?

[Bad Dragon]

5649286 Well, what's your explanation?

[StormLuna]

It's cute. It has a bit of a Pony Life feel to it but it is funnier than that. I thought this would be a disaster but it is alright.

[Darth Wrex]

5649288
Where are Tirek, Cozy Glow, and Chrysalis?

[Bad Dragon]

5649290 I can tell you about Cozy Glow.

Cozy Glow Awakens

When she makes it to the hive a changeling spots her, “What are you doing?”
“Why, golly, what do you mean?”
“Why did you cum to the hive in a pony form, inefficiently using your energy?”
“Because I’m a real pony.”
Changeling hissed and charged his horn.
She did nothing.
“You’re not one of us!”
“Gee, you don’t say…”
 “You’re a pony! Have you cum here to save your friend? Big mistake!”
“Nah, I don’t have any friends.”
“That’s sad and pathetic.”
“Yes, well, things are as they are. So if you would just point me to the hibernation chambers where you keep your food source.”
“Our food doesn’t hibernate. Hibernation implies contemptment and tranquility. The reverse is true on both accounts. We suck out all the love our captives produce. It’s the only magic left in Equestria. We leave nothing but endless nightmares in their minds. They live in eternal torment.”
“That’s quite alright. At least then my nightmares will serve a purpose.”
“Cumming here was a mistake. You’re not welcum here!”
“Excuse me, mister. Just look at me. I’m a pony. I’m tasty.”
“You suck. You have no love to give. Go where you cummed from.”
“I have nowhere to go.”
“That’s your problem, not ours. Now beat it!”
“No.”
“I could kill you where you stand!”
“Why don’t you?”
“You’re too pathetic to kill.”
“Hibernation chamber then?”
“We would gain nothing from you.”
“You’d gain the lack of my annoying presence. That’s something, right?”
“Fine. Anything to shut you up, pest. Cum, preservation chambers are this way.”

5649289 I concur. The animation quality is the biggest hindrance (as was also the case with Pony Life). There could be improvements in all other areas as well. But overall, it's passable. Unlike Pony LIfe,I can bear this for 5 min at a time.

[Bad Dragon]

5649296 It's hard to impress you.

5649302
Why do you think I'm a story review

[Bad Dragon]

5649303 You asked a question that I have asked myself. I try to answer these open questions with stories. So I intended to provide you with the same answers that somewhat satisfied me.

[Darth Wrex]

5649308
Okay, here's a new question: What happened to all the old towns?

[Bad Dragon]

5649309 They burned.

They all burned.

[Darth Wrex]

5649310
Is that just a guess?

[Bad Dragon]

5649313 It's my headcanon and an answer to your question.

[Darth Wrex]

5649315
Okay, but in general what's your answer?

[Bad Dragon]

5649317 My answer is that they all burned. Why is this answer not sufficient for you?

[Darth Wrex]

5649318
Seems like a waste of building materials.

[Bad Dragon]

5649319 You know what real waste is? Our Sun. It just radiates all that energy into oblivion. The energy that could be used to sustain life. Such a waste. And it consumes so much Hydrogen. There's only enough Hydrogen left in the Universe for the next few trillion years. After that, there will be just cold darkness. Now that's a real waste.

[Darth Wrex]

5649321
Some cultures believe we burned through 4 Suns already.

[Bad Dragon]

5649323 We are made from supernovas, so yes, there were suns before. But this cycle won't last forever. Hydrogen isn't forming anywhere in the Universe. It's only getting used.

[Darth Wrex]

5649330
But they believe this sun is our last one

[Bad Dragon]

5649331 It's the last for us, but not the last in the Universe. But someday, there shall be the last sun and after that sun, there shall never be another sun.
