Enduring Man-Child


T

Before beginning the story proper, an explanation is called for.

I am one of those people who can't write except in a fit of inspiration. The story either writes itself or it doesn't get written at all. I'm afraid I've been very dry of this inspiration for a very long time now. But recently an idea has been invading my mind and refusing to let me rest. But unlike my usual practice, I have tried to resist it.

The reason for this is that this particular story simply doesn't fit any easy category. It is primarily a sequel to my previous story “Lauren Faust's 'IT!'” However, while that story was strictly for humor, this addendum is serious. I don't mean serious in any tragic way; I mean merely that this, though it continues the assumptions of the previous lark, is written as a serious fic.

This in itself is troublesome to me. The previous story (which of course you should read before reading this one) was written in opposition to “Cupcakes.” Since so many bronies were running with the idea that the happy, party-throwing, balloon-marked mare was concealing an unspeakable monster deep within herself, I made her the ultimate monster clown, Pennywise from Stephen King's 'IT!'” With one exception: that she's as sweet and good and kind as ever. Because I am adamantly opposed to evil Pinkie Pie, and if she were some sort of bizarre quasi-omnipotent entity of some sort, she would only use her powers for good. It was meant as a poke-in-the-eye to all the “evil Pinkie” stuff floating around on the web, because the “real” (canon) Pinkie Pie would never, ever, ever hurt anypony. She's the comic relief. Her powers are cartoon-character powers, and there's absolutely nothing sinister about her.

Now in this quasi-sequel OmniPinkie is still good and sweet, so my resistance to writing this was not out of any fear of harming her reputation any further in that regard. I have resisted for two reasons: 1)as a serious sequel to a parody fic, it defies classification. And 2)even as a good and benevolent character I don't want to start any “Omnipony” thing about Pinkie. It was to oppose that that I wrote the original story. But after so long being absent and with the idea refusing to leave me alone, I have determined to go ahead and try to write this down.

This is an unusual story, but I hope somewhere someone will enjoy it.

Thank you.

NB: This story is the sequel to a story that hasn't been approved yet. I strongly suggest waiting until "Lauren Faust's 'IT!'" is available and reading that first. Otherwise this story will make even less sense than it already does.

This was very odd, and I don't know what I think of it. I suppose there's nothing wrong with it at all, aside from a couple spelling errors. Also, I don't know if this qualifies as a crossover, unless the concept is clearly from something else that I don't know of.

As I said, this was the sequel to another fic which is still awaiting approval. You really should have taken my advice and waited to read the prequel first.

You can read lauren Faust's It over on fanfiction.net

Yes, but I've submitted it here as well. Unfortunately, the sequel was approved first. I have no idea how long it will take for the prequel to be available here.

Did you submit all your stories in one day? :facehoof:

2881579 Alright, I will play your game. I'll get back to this when I read the prequel.
...
I see. Interesting. I like how you play your cards. You've got a follower in me.

(Also, I commented before yours appeared to me, I couldn't have taken your advice :derpytongue2:)

Yes. Yes I did. I've had them on fanfiction.net for years (except for the new one) and have long realized that *this* is where bronies go for fics. So I posted all I have yesterday and today. And let me tell you, it took a heap of time to get used to the way things work around here!

The "prequel," "Lauren Faust's 'IT!'" is now available here. Yay!!! Please read it first.

Is it weird that I found this story kind of sweet?

3411572 I hope not. As I said, it's a "sequel" that isn't in the same genre as the prequel. And the main point of both is to show that Pinkie is good.

I nearly cried.

I really needed something like this.

6511907 Thank you so much! It's my own personal favorite of my pony stories but no one seems to ever notice it. I'm glad you did, and that it made you feel better! :pinkiesmile:

Because I am adamantly opposed to evil Pinkie Pie,

In that case, you might want to avoid reading The Wheel and the Butterfly A Dan X Pinkie Pie Saga. You probably won't like the way she's written in that story.

I do not understand why you feared that the story would not have liked, the contrast between the prequel and the sequel is interesting, shows in one the cheerful and carefree side of pinkie that does everything to make others happy, it made me laugh in an incredible way as it was always repeated that it was an almost omnipotent extra-dimensional entity that used its terrifying powers to help others.

the second one has more depth, being an immortal entity would survive all his friends, so pinkie has found a way to be with them forever, very sweet.

I timidly admit that I'm a fan of pinkie 360 ​​degrees, so I like it in every way it is represented, including the part ... more controversial, that pinkamena cupcake, of course, however, I share your ideas on pinkie canon, and I think that those stories ruin his image, but if we conceive them as set in a parallel dimension, as shown by many writers, they assume a different light, even if we can not exactly define light.

I can not do anything about it, I love pinkie in all its forms, pinkie, pinkamena, surprise.seguo all three versions in every variable.

however, from today I will have another variable, that of your pinkie, I saw long ago the real version of this story, the horror film it was chilling, but the prequel of this managed to get out of my mind, the images of that movie.

cabbage, I think I'm going off the subject, I did not want to forgive me, going back to the story ...... well I think I've already expressed what I think.

great story, congratulations, you have not one but two masterpieces.

P.S. sorry for the length of the comment ... I think I said one or two things that did not center much, I'm sorry, I got a bit 'done to take,however, every word was sincere.

p.ps.s.I do not know if I've already said it but my favorite version of pinkie remains, pinkie pie canon.
