Kinky.

TIME FOR ME TO READ AND CRY! :pinkiesmile:

- PRP

I think you meant Metuo Panificam if you were trying to write "I fear the baker"

Other than that: YES. I hope this is as good as "Puppet To My Fame"

Whoa, when did you learn latin? :rainbowhuh:

3224688>>3224659>>3224691
Thanks!

3224700 What? Don't be mean, I'm only trying to help.

3224718
It's not mean. Unless it's a medical term, I don't speak a word of latin. There are about 100 translators online and 99 of them are horribly inaccurate. You have a gift. . . or you're better at using a translator than I am. :twilightsheepish:

...I... don't know if I want to read this...
Scoots is my favorite because she's adorable as fuck...
...Ugh. Screw it. Have your read.
It shouldn't screw up my Scoots too much.
After all, how bad can this really be?
...
Don't answer that.

LIke the Story but its too dark for me to read more of.

Alright sir, you have my piqued my interest. Please continue. :twilightsmile:

... I'll be watching this...

You never fail with a grim dark, you know that?

~Skeeter The Lurker

3224788
Honesty is the best policy. :pinkiehappy: (And I do plan to go darker, but it'll always be more psychological then physical. I like to give people an idea what they're getting into in the first chapter of every grimdark I write.)

3224741
What's the verdict? Scarred for life?

I guess you could say it's my
*puts on sunglasses* :rainbowdetermined2:
Best Genre.

:flutterrage: awwww yeah!

What? I have to beat this meme into the ground to make sure it stays dead this time!

Too dark for me. DoH is funny enough and not really dark at all compared to this. I think I'll stick to that.

I'm not 100% sure what that voice is saying. Something like "That which cheats death will never die" but that doesn't sound quite right. Other than that, it was pretty good. IDK about that last bit of Scootaloo's dream sequence, Freud would have a field day with that one.

You know, I just realized I have a Disability Superpower.My ADHD has warped my brain so much that I can quickly adapt to junk if I subject myself to it for long enough(for example, I no longer cringe at clop, though still find it to not be my cup of tea), and I also am apparently immune to psychological horror. And I also will never admit to myself that I'm beaten or willingly give up, but that's neither here nor there.

3224879
Pfft, I just don't want the way I think of scoots to change.
I have like, ten scars from other stories already.
(I think you've written about... five of those.)

3225057
I don't know about a dream sequence. Rope burns, smell of smoke, burnt twine? Definitely pissed off the wrong eldritch creature, in my humble opinion.

And that's fairly close. I was aiming for the Game of Thrones quote: "That which is dead can never die."

I have two people who approached me to fix my atrocious google-latin. It should be better soon.

Hmm, I'll bite.
I'm never really affected by dark fics but this one has something interesting about it. Will follow for sure. Hopefully, it will get so dark that it becomes utterly soul-rending. Or maybe that's an unrealistic expectation...

Oh, and is it meant to be "outside" instead of "out" in the first line?

3225134
Hmm, not sure which is grammatically correct, but I would tell others I looked out a window, not outside a window... I may have to look this up now that I'm curious.

As to the darkness, I don't want to spoil it, but I aim for it to dramatically change Scootaloo's character. It will push her beyond her limits and comfort, force her to willingly suffer in the hopes of rescuing her friends, and whether or not she can do it... this story is Lovecraftian inspired and should prove to be exceedingly dark without needlessly violent.

:twilightangry2: Hey Kaidan! Quit setting unrealistic expectations!
:scootangel: But they're not!

3225168 I meant the bit after:

"It was still dark out and I could have easily gone back to sleep."

Sorry for the confusion and I'm probably wrong anyway :twilightblush:

I'm now annoyed that I wiped my mind completely of Latin after the final exams. Although, when they said it would "come in handy" I doubt this is what they meant.

3225188
Oh, good catch then.

Yeah, latin and the metric system... used by Doctors everywhere to confused the rest of us. (It's actually the opposite, I wish the US used metric.)

3225257 I'm prolly not gonna like how things like these end...But...I have an insatiable curiosity. (P.S: Nicely done...I better choose to read this or play Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs...'cuz I don't think my sanity can handle both)

fucking hell kai,you dont do anything in half measures.
beautiful.
oh and thank you for graphic scoots death. hate that pony.

Ah waking up alone in a town that seems to be deserted only to be attacked by mannequins in the 1st building you go into ..... sounds familiar
:twilightsmile: your grim dark is some of the best so i shall be watching this

Okay this story is good your always good at grim dark and I like to see where this is going

Oh and I'm I the only one who thought of the weeping angels?

Other then that good job

These will also be important for translating Latin:

Noun Declension

Verb Conjugation

Aw yes, grimdark and latin, really enjoyed. But that "ambience music" is going to give me nightmares... :fluttercry:
3224697
Wow you even picked up the right gender :rainbowderp:

Even with the supplied translator its hard to get an understanding of the phrases.

I managed to get the "Tastes like chicken" one at the beginning of the Pinkie section, and "Fear the baker"(?) at the end but otherwise no dice.


Rarity's dress doll things are EUCLID class objects with the Item assignment SCP-173

3225972
Then you'll love all future graphic deaths. :scootangel:

3227684
spooooooOooOoooOooooky. :pinkiegasp:
Grimdark and Latin and like peanut butter and chocolate.

3226408
Don't blink.

3226022
Just wait until Scootaloo ventures into killer Rarity's basement.

3225730
Amnesia: Machine for Pigs is like a psychological thriller, atmosphere and sound are everything... play it in a dark room. But, I got a little bored, I wanted at least the occassional jump scare. Then again, when I finally did get attacked, I ran around like a chicken with my head cut off.

For some reason, I've read that in Benedict Cumberbatch's voice...

Oh, Scootaloo, congratulations! It’s your 5,800th day alive!

I had to pause reading and check how many years is that (15 and about ten months). Almost happy birthday, except of the fact that it's not her birthday. And it's certainly not very happy...

“Scootaloo! So sweet and tasty!”

KFC! :pinkiecrazy:

3227783 Given the to-do list on your blog (The rather long one), do you think this would be frequently updated? At least enough to keep me off Amnesia ^^

Oops. My bad, Kai. I totally liked and fave'd this yesterday, but I forgot to comment on it. :trixieshiftright:

Pinkie can cook me up and eat me any day of the week if we get to do some awesome BDSM with twine, chloroform and funnels before hand. :pinkiecrazy:

That is all...

Actually, in this case "Panifica" needs to be in the accusative case, "Panificam". That is because it is the direct object of "Timete".

Panificam timete.

I apologize for the confusion. When I compared it to "Pistor" I was using the nominative form because that is how it is displayed in dictionaries.

To help prevent future misunderstandings I'll pay more attention to the context of the usage when talking about the qualities of specific words.

scroll down once and find that the chapter ended FUCK!!! :flutterrage:

... I.. I have...

Fucking amazing choice of accompaniment. It seriously set the mood and had me on edge. Could not read fast enough to see what happened next. So excited for chapter #2!

Oh God...
THIS SHIT IF FUCKED UP!!!:flutterrage::flutterrage:
and awesome and epic and descriptive and kinda bloody...........etc.
Time.To.Be.Afraid.:pinkiecrazy:

...Goddamit, I actually enjoyed Scoot's death scene. I'm into some weird shit.
:twilightoops: Bad boner. Bad!

"There's a feather in my thigh."
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah, see? It's orange. Why is there a feather in my thigh? And what's this?"
"Oh, that's the kidney. Sometimes it doesn't get detached at the factory."
"You expect me to eat a chicken thigh with a feather and a kidney in it?!"
"Yeah, that's how you know it's grade A Scootaloo, and not a run-of-the-mill chicken."

3228188
Not that frequently. I have a lot to catch up on this week but I have this already outlined.

3228219>>3254587\
The body wants what the body wants. The next one will be a more classical death, followed by needles and string. :pinkiecrazy:

3245079
Selbi recommended that song.

Holy shit when I tried to thumb and fave it it came up with the 'That would not be Wise' thing, scary.

Great fic, wish I knew Latin. On to translations! Also wish that my friend hadn't stolen my ear buds, or I would have ambiance'd this. :duck:

And I plan to actually do something next time. I hope you can forgive me.

Don't shoot me up! You're in the military; the military has guns; you have guns!

Helps edit chapter. Gets no mention.

Feelin' the love man.

Nah, I kid. This really was an interesting chapter. Keep in mind that thing I mentioned.

You have released unnatural creatures.

I like where this is going...

Also:

Instead of this giving me an oppurtunity to escape,

ooh yay more Dirus Somnus! :pinkiehappy: I wonder what in the 7 hells Scootaloo did to have this happen to her.
I must say the ground sure beat the shit outta her :pinkiecrazy:
P.S.
Wb sir Kaiden

Oh, Kai, did I ever tell you that I love you?

No? Good, cuz nohomo. Nonetheless, this was an excellent chapter, and just in time for Halloween! Looking forward to more... Perhaps another by the 31st? :duck:

(It's okay if no. Don't rush yourself.)

Illa exanimis perire non potest

So, she's already dead?

3410715
But she cannot die :rainbowhuh:

3410102
She didn't finish her vegetables.

3410148
I hope to update it, and have a new story, by the 31st. All of my yes! :pinkiehappy:

I like where this is going..
-Brony4life14

Any chance you can put the translations in the author's notes? With all the shit happening to Scootaloo, I feel like I'm reading Fallout: Equestria again. Anyways, loving the story so far, hope Scootaloo brutally murders whatever is causing this.
