The Alicorn Amulet - all powerful, and power corrupts absolutely. A great addition to any thief's collection.
Too bad Lock Pick, an earth pony thief, stole a copy of it that lacks wings. Having unicorn powers is amazing and all . . . but is it talking to him? It's sure made a mess of corrupting him - or she, as the amulet insists for him to refer to her as. And she's rather charming, in her own fumbling, naive, yet relentlessly-attempting-to-be-evil way.
Even worse, he's made the enemy of the entire Royal Guard because, while rather mediocre magic the amulet provides, it's still dark magic. And dark magic is kind of extremely-forbidden.

I'm making this up as I go.
Not bad, a decent start with a fair amount of potential. Let's see where this goes.
If on a male OC it centers, a massive failure are your ventures.
4280160 There's more truth to that rhyme then I'd like to admit.
4280144 Whatever could you possibly be talking about?
4280096 Thanks, I didn't cringe when rereading this chapter after publication, so I'm improving.
4280197 i dont no wat u meen, hook
4280197 hello, Admiral Hood, sir!
What would Sombra need with two amulets anyway?
So, this is going to be the odd romance of a pony and an amulet?
I am suddenly very intrigued already. Fave and liked.

Maybe the broken one was a prototype.
Oooooh.
its
Get with the times, amulet! He knew it was a bad idea from the start, and turned out exactly that way.
Damn tools telling ponies what to do. This is why I like a revolver- it doesn't question, just point it and click the trigger and it goes boom...
Interesting chapter break location...
An amulet that was imprisoned under a loose floorboard by a shopkeeper is not exactly a skilled escape artist.
4290059 Shoot, I accidentally published that chapter in the middle of writing it. Unpublished a half-hour ago, though it seems followers can still access it :/
Can't wait for the romance part. How the heck is that gonna play out anyway? Dream sex? I wouldn't be surprised.
This story, I likes it. If for some random reason you don't happen to finish it in time for the contest, or don't happen to win, I still request that you continue this. It shows legitimate promise to be featured at some point in the future, if you were to continue it. What with its practically non-existent typos, proper grammar, and realistic mental banter, I'd say it's only a matter of time. Cheers mate, to a future where this fic is hopefully continued, no matter the ordeal!
I can not wait to Amulet appears in his dreams. As a pony mare.
I was half expecting her to call herself "Amy the Amulet".
The power of the comic relief shows itself! And they called me mad for my faith...

remembered, or "I never remember"
Does Amulet visualize herself as a young or old mare?
So, in Equestria is mandatory true villains have evil laughs. The lack of them means something is off.
Great take on the guard and on Celestia. It's always nice to see the guard not portrayed as complete incompetents, and I'm happy to see that Celestia is taking the time to think over the situation.
I certainly hope this isn't dead, it was just getting interesting
I can come up with half a dozen reasons why he would want to give a female voice in his head a body. Three guesses, and the first two don't count.
I like this story. It's really creative, and I absolutely adore it despite the really short chapter lengths. I will be watching this. Closely.
Veeeery closely.
It returns! Seeing this updated brought a grand smile to my face.
I was more happy than I care to admit when I saw this got updated.

Looking for an old lady to possess? Why not Celestia? She's over a milennium old.
4407526 Spaghetti? Damn, I was going for bucatoni.
I agree, that part's a little awkward. You can blame my total inexperience in romance and desire not to have that tag come into play only on the last chapter, and also that I wrote the thing all yesterday. I'll edit it a little, since it certainly could be worded better, but as for his thoughts . . . we'll have to find out, won't we?
4407449 Fixed, thank you. Who said anything about possession?

Your comments are why I write. Thanks!
4406537 My ideas are sound, my execution is . . . occasionally lacking. Also, sorry for the short chapters; #laziness #school #noexcuse
4406468 You can take that clop right out the door, sir!
. . . he wants her to improve his PR?
4284017 well duh... Double the power of course...
Soooo.... this is dead?

EXCUSE ME, GOOD SIR/MADAM. I WAS READING THIS GLORIOUS FIC AND CAME UPON A VERY EXTREMELY DISPLEASING DETAIL. THERE IS NO MORE CHAPTERS TO READ. PLEASE FIX THIS, THANK YOU KINDLY.
