To Exist

by Church

Author's Note

So, basically got the idea because I got one of those pony blind bags. I decided that, if indeed the surprise inside was a background pony, it would become my favorite background pony. I tore open the bag and, lo and behold, out comes Lily Blossom.

I hadn't heard of this pony. I didn't think that anyone had. I looked online, and my favorite background pony didn't even exist on the show (there is a pony closely resembled, but I don't think it's her). The hell? She has a G4 sketch of her, but she isn't on the show. I was disappointed. Obviously, I needed to get my favorite background pony some recognition.

This is what I did to show her some respect? Sorry Lily...

So, basically, what I wanted to do originally was stick her in a television set, where she was off in a corner and not on the main screen. The story loosely follows that concept, as characters from the show break into her world unknowingly to speak. Eh, you get the rest. She was essentially just thrown into a world where she was the only one that existed. No big deal.

I suppose what ended up happening was, Lily was somehow connected to Equestria, but she wasn't quite there. The village she creates can kinda be tied to Ponyville (very loosely), and the utopia she creates sort of implies Canterlot. Of course, her drawings of the mane six also suggest that... whatever.

Anyway, that's where the story idea originated. Here, alternate ending:

'Twilite Sparkl', the first one reads in crude hoof. It shows a picture of a purple unicorn with a navy blue mane and pink and violet highlights.

And that's how Equestria was made.

TROLOLOLO LO LOLOLO LOLOLO

Thanks to the maybe hundred readers who will see this, and hopefully think that it wasn't a total waste of their time. I appreciate your view.

Also, thanks to bookplayer, who thought this fic was alright enough to put out there after I made the poor soul read it. The story may not be perfect... edits still pending (if people even like it)

Lily Blossom Love, woo hoo!

I also liked this. Interesting concept.

The only criticism I have is that it sounds sort of robotic to me. That sort of fits for most of the story because she is trying to be emotionless, but when she lets her emotions get the better of her nearing the end it would be interesting to see a change in the style of her thought. If that makes any sense...

Anyways, you earned the thumbs up from me!

I'm happy that you enjoyed it!

Lily could ALWAYS use some stories.

That was very well-written, and would have been a great story if it had gone somewhere or signified something. Now, I just feel let down, like after watching the last episode of The Prisoner or Lost,

I had the idea stuck in my head and I was like "oh what an unbelievably splendiferous idea!". I really struggled with how to end it. I didn't want to have her escape, because I feel like she still had to be a lost character in the show. On the other hand, I didn't know how to really formulate where to go with it. My other ending was to have her be stuck in a television set, one that has been shut off permanently (so that's kind of what the ending went for, but not entirely). Ultimately, this is what happened.

Still learning on the fly here, but thank you for your honest opinion. Several people wanted me to continue on to something else, but I just can't do it.
