A goofy little miss that's here to write and draw to her heart's content. Her imagination doesn't know when to shut off.

Party Favor has a problem.

Despite coming from a family of mages and magicians, he has difficulty using magic. Scratch that, his horn doesn't even work. In fact, for all the nothing that his horn does, he might as well be an earth pony. And that easily makes him the laughingstock of the other unicorns, including his brother.

But perhaps his talents lie not with magic, but with something else entirely.


Inspired by a random observation while watching "The Cutie Map".

Great job on this oneshot Sketch! This one's going in the head cannon shelf and faves!

Very interesting, and an excellent delivery on that headcanon. Although, I'd wish I'd also have seen some indication on how Starlight recruited him, something I think would be a natural continuation from here.

Makes sense to me. The idea of mineral concentrations in the horn having an impact on unicorn magic is an intriguing one. It makes me wonder what the composition of Twilight's is like.

And the idea of refocusing otherwise nonfunctional magic through a different means... you know, this could be a possibility for Scootaloo. And it may explain the Stare, with Fluttershy projecting mind control through her eyes rather than a nonexistent horn. This opens up a number of intriguing possibilities. Thank you for it, Sketch.

Oh my, this is so amazing! I really love this. I can't put into words how thoroughly I've accepted his head-canon. Party Favor is such a cute little pony! And I really love the family you've made for him, too. :twilightsmile:

I have never accepted a headcannon as easily I did this one.
10/9.9

HEADCANON ACCEPTED!

This is a fantastic story, short but the characters where so rich in personality and none of it felt forced. I also like how you manage got give him pinkie effect with the balloon trampoline oh and his search for his cutie mark was very funny. I like the idea that Party large magic potential manifest itself thought his manipulation of balloon and that he can change there property.
I like Party Favor ingenious use of balloons, even if he is not have as extroverted personality as Pinkie Pie he still menages to amaze as much as her by what he does.
great job:yay:

This was really cute and is now part of my headcannon-- awesome! :twilightsmile:

Oh, this is gorgeous. I got all choked up.
5869020 I agree! This creates a lot of possibilities and potentially explains a lot of things about those ponies who are atypical of their tribe. After all, Fluttershy earned her cutie mark after plummeting straight for the ground.

Party Favor really needed to get together with two other young Ponies and form a club to find his special talent ... :raritywink:

I liked this story a lot, especially because you're providing really good canon filler here.

Something tells me that Kazam's gonna be a speciest one day...

5869001 Well, I'm willing to bet that it was Quasar that made him want to leave. Between his bro picking on him and his dad playing the 'eternally unimpressed' card, it's no big surprise Favor might've thought that his cutie mark was the source of his problems. Add in Starlight's preachings about "different = conflict" and Bam! Equalization!

Yeah, I can totally accept this headcanon. :D After all, I already have a theory that party pony magic and unicorn magic are similar... Major kudos to you on a great story! :D

Well, Kazam comes off as a grade A sociopath with sadist tendencies. Really wouldn't be surprised if he became a villain someday.

Does Party Favor's disability protect him from drain magic like Tirek's?

I actually noticed Party Favor's lack of magic in The Cutie Map and I was gonna write about it too! :rainbowlaugh: You did it so well, much better than I would've done. :twilightsheepish:

Hm, I like this.

He uses his horn in the season 6 finale, so there goes that headcanon. :ajsleepy:
Great story though.

Since that's after he met Twilight maybe she found a way to fix it?

Lame, I want alternative ending where he bough a semi-automatic crossbow and go on schoolshooting funtime:pinkiehappy:
