Shimmer, My Big Bad Sis.

Movie Night Part One

The time-tested challenge between all families... A war of age, personality, and philosophy... A war that is waged to this day, and as early as the dawn of life... Though the arms of war have changed, the matter at hand has always been the same. This is the battle of interest. The battle of time. The battle... of entertainment.

"But Sunset!" Pipsqueak pouted with his hooves thrashing about in the air as he whined.

"No buts! It was father's choice of movie last time, and I know you swayed his opinion in your favor. That's why I'm not letting you pick this time," Sunset explained her logic to her little brother.

"B-But... You always pick something so--"

"Don't you dare say it! There is nothing wrong with the classics..." Sunset Shimmer lifted up a DVD from a nearby counter and showed it to Pipsqueak, "See? This movie was all the rage on the other side."

Pip took one look at the movie before going pale and trying to make a break for the door. However, his hooves were quickly ripped off from the ground along with the rest of his body when a green-ish aura enveloped him. Against his will, Pip was plopped against the couch and had astral chains bind him to the couch, tears in his eyes. His sister took a spot next to him and put her movie in, starting the show.

As the screen turned on and the words "Sunset: Breaking Dusk" scrolled across the screen, Pipsqueak screamed and thrashed more-so against his spot on the couch while Sunset Shimmer just sighed in content and reclined back.

O.o *Screams* DON'T WORRY PIP, I'M COMMIN TO HELP YOU!

[Khaos]

OH MY SWEET JESUS YES.

[Tatsurou]

That's a Twilight parody, right? Just checking.

[Chaotic Note]

Oh god.
Don't tell me it's a movie like Twilight.

[doorcf]

If it is a Twiloght-esque movie, we shall purge it from existance

[musicman722]

Sir that there is child abuse.

[Web of Hope]

*settles in* So what're we watchin'?

*Holds up dvd case*

"...
excellent."

[Evowizard25]

*screams in terror and runs away*

[Alen]

*salute* It was a honor Pip. You know I would go against Tartarus for you... But thats to much even for me. Stay strong and may we meet again if Celestia has merci on your soul.

[Starwind]

So she's forcing him to watch an alternate universe (both from our perspective and the characters') version of Twilight? Sweet Celestia, I hate the idea of Pip suffering like that, but still...

Oh, and speaking of Twilight (the book), funnily enough the first IDW micro-series comic has an old librarian mention "that silly series with that vampire pony." Considering who she's talking to (i.e. ), it's pretty obvious what was being referenced. Just wanted to share that information because I think it's interesting and a little funny, because it means the universe of Equestria has their own version of the story.

Pipsqueak: GENEVA CONVENTION! GENEVA CONVENTION!!

[gwarrior2013]

I lost it at this comment!

[Serefin]

Wow, Shim-Sham. That's harsh.

[SolidBlackPanda]

3056276 How does Pip even know what the Geneva Convention is? There was no WW2 in Equestria...that we know of.

4258054 I had to look it up, but apparently IDW is the publishing division of "Idea and Design Works," so that's what they stand for. They publish comics, including MLP:FIM ones. They're only sort-of canon though.

As for what they watched last time, my first guess would have been the pony version of "Pirates of the Caribbean," (Pirates of the Mareibbean?) since Pip has a thing for pirates and Jack Sparrow seems like a character Discord would really like. Of course, a few chapters later it's implied his favorite movies are Daring Do

[King Kenya]

This scene from "A Clockwork Orange" Springs to mind.

Tears of sympathy are welling in my eyes.

Pip I am so sad for you!

[Razzy]

She's so evil...
