Know your Mare - overlord-flinx



It's silly, it's pointless, and it makes little to no sense... I've heard of worse story ideas.

1000 Likes Special: Overlord-Flinx.

This episode was recorded in anticipation of the 1000 like special...

...Please enjoy...


Lights search an empty stage as smoke leaks from off the sides, a mysteries tune filling the room with an ominous flux of sound. Suddenly, a fanfare of trumpets erupt and a single, wide screen TV flicks on above the stage.

IT'S THE FINAL COUNTDOWN!

Finally, the lights lock in on a single target, a lone stallion wearing a navy green ascot cap stood there, gray coat and all. On his flank he had a simple cutie mark of a quill dipped into a broken ink well.

Know your mare, know your mare, know your mare...

"I'm actually a boy."

Oh yeah...

NOW he wants to change it...

"Sorry..."

You bet you are...

Now let's get this started...

Overlord-Flinx...

...can't spell to save his life...

"I try! I mess up a bit here and there, but it's no biggy, is it?"

A writer who doesn't care about the writing...

...makes me cry...

Overlord-Flinx...

...thinks he IS an overlord...

"Well, no. It's just a pen name... Stupid one, but I've just grown used to it."

Overlord-Flinx...

...is a hypocrite...

"To what degree?"

You know what...

"So what? I still don't like Original Characters! Is that a crime?"

It is...

...Seeing as you have your own...!

"I don't take it seriously like--"

Tell it to someone who cares...

Overlord-Flinx...

...is a failure to his family name...

"Oh yeah? What family name is that?"

The Suckingtons...

"But then doesn't that mean--?"

You're not allowed to rebuke that...

"Makers... Fine."

Overlord-Flinx...

...likes Princess Celestia...

"Well of course I do. She's one of my top ponies."

Overlord-Flinx...

...wants to date Princess Celestia...

"That's absurd! I wouldn't even--"

Still telling it to someone who doesn't care...

Overlord-Flinx...

...thinks trilbies are cool...

"Coolest hat there is. I just don't look good in them... But I do like ascot caps."

Overlord-Flinx...

...is a horrible writer...

"WOAH! Do not start mocking my writing. I'm a great writer."

Oh yeah...?

"Yeah!"

Then why doesn't anyone read your other stories...

"...They're busy...!"

Uh-huh...

"Stories are in the--"

Shhh...

...You're boring the audience...

"No I'm no--"

Zzzzzz...

...zzzz...

"Real mature."

Says the one who writes the scripts...

"Well that's--"

Speaking of which...

We brought a special guest for you...

"Oh yeah? Who? Celestia so you can hammer your point home?"

Close...

With a loud slam, the studio door flung open to reveal an army of ponies and alike standing in the blinding light of the outside world.

"Uhh..."

We've invited EVERYONE you had on your show so they can say ONE thing about you...!

Oh man...

I'm so proud of you little buddy...

I was just workin' off your great plans...

If you two are done...

We'll go in order of guest...

Overlord-Flinx...

...Never passed ANY schooling...

"Skin of my nose... but I DID pass!"

Overlord-Flinx...

...Can afford to bathe...

...He just chooses to smell like a dead skunk...

"I mask it!"

Overlor'-Flins'...

...hoards all his families money...

"I--Well... It's not hoarding exactly..."

Overlord-Flinx...

...Is the meanest person in the entire world...!

"I-I'm not that bad!"

Overlord-Flinx...

...isn't as young as he pretends...

"I'm not young or old... I'm even."

Overlord-Flinx...

...has no class...

"I wouldn't go that far..."

Overlord-Flinx...

...lacks in all realms of 'game'...

"Are you saying I'm not good at video games?"

Overlord-Flinx...

...has no swag...

"HOW DARE YOU!?"

Overlord-Flinx...

...always is done in 10 seconds flat...

...Always...

"H-Hey!"

Overlord-Flinx...

...Meh...

...S'alright...

"With that, I'm getting my only easy one..."

Overlord-Flinx...

...can't produce a skill to pay any bill...

"What? We're going street on me now?"

Overlord-Flinx...

...has romantic feelings for his partner...

"Clever, just repeating my script..."

Overlord-Flinx...

...doesn't know what is love...

...and it hurts him...

...it hurts him...

"No more!"

Overlord-Flinx...

...smells like dog buns...

"Yes, I smell... I get it..."

Overlor'-Flins'...

...cain't' buck fer' nothin'...

"...No comment..."

Overlord-Flinx...

...Who's he...?

"HAH!"

Overlord-Flinx...

...has his mom dress him...

"She only puts the clothes out!"

Overlor'-Flin'...

...ain't got half the cool as Pip or I got...

"Darn you're smooth..."

Overlord-Flinx...

...Is actually a human is disguise...!

"Not here I not..."

Overlord-Flinx...

...doesn't get any...

"I-- Refuse to answer..."

Overlord-Flinx...

...lacks in any sort of musical ability...

"I can play a piano... kinda..."

Overlord-Flinx...

...gross...

"Now that's just rude..."

Overlord-Flinx...

...eww...

"Stop it!"

Overlord-Flinx...

...can't act...

"I'm a great actor!"

Overlord-Flinx...

...s'alright...

...I'd party with him...

"Thank god..."

Overlord-Flinx...

...has poor penmanship...

"PIP!? WHY?!"

Flinx...

...ain't too good...

"Harsh... So very harsh..."

Overlord-Flinx...

...smells like a lynx stuck on the rinks surrounded by pinks...

"I...I...I don't even know how to respond to that!"

Overlord-Flinx...

...hates pies...

"...Is that a bad thing?"

Overlord-Flinx...

...isn't as evil as he could be...

"Thank you?"

Overlord-Flinx...

...Don't know 'em...

...Can't say much...

...I hear he smells...

"Ugh..."

Overlord-Flinx...

...would bend over backwards for this to stop...

"DISCORD WAS RIGHT!"

Overlord is he...

...getting a good grade was always a losing plea...

"I get--Alright grades!"

Over--

GET OUT!

Overlord-Flinx...

...has no special somepony...

"Point to you..."

Overlord-Flinx...

...don't know the difference between nuts and doughnuts...

"One of them isn't good for you... Am I right?"

Overlord-Flinx...

...it would be out of class for me to say anything...

...much like him...

"OW! Low blow!"

Alright...

That's enough...

Slowly, the crowd faded away back into the door they appeared from.

Wasn't that--

"No."

Doesn't matter what you think...

"This is my show!"

It was...

Now to give you your final gift...

"My--NO!"

Once more, the door flung open to show all the ponies there once more; only this time with weapons attached to each of them and their eyes locked on Flinx.

...Get him...

Without warning, Flinx bolted off of the stage with the mob not far behind, screaming for his head.


Thanks for all the times we've had.

Stick with me and enjoy another few more--

THERE HE IS!

BU--
