Midwest Brony. Really appreciate critiques, especially if you catch grammatical errors. I'm far more used to prose and poetry than narrative, so any advice, hate mail, etc. is appreciated.
Sometimes, the music says more than words ever could.
She came to escape fame, and a pegasus will bring her back down to earth. Can these two find feelings that go deeper than melodies? Or will a scornful DJ come between them?

Really nice first chapter, looking forward to see more of this.
First comment
And we can maybe expect Fluttershy describing singing and Scratch describing music.

When I put the comment there no other comments where there
It's always the can't-be-bothered-with-this-sort-of-thing types who fall the hardest, right?
The Element of Kindness has her work cut out for her.
Like it so far
That Vinyl Scratch in the picture scares me.
Hopefully the actual Vinyl Scratch is a little bit nicer than she looks right now, or else we're in for a wild ride!
You already know my feelings on this, but I thought I'd comment to let you know that it still looks pretty good. Looking forward to editing the next chapter.

Haha cute. Yeah, I just really wanted to explore Tavi, and I kept thinking how I could avoid writing a clone of every Tavi fic out there.

Unfortunately, she won't be showing up right away, but the pic... Oh it's accurate. I didn't just want to write something outside of the OxVS fanon, I want to destroy it...
Well that's harsh, but I really want people to be willing to see characters in a different light. I want the reader to feel hatred for this version of Vinyl
Near the end of the chapter is very serene and calming, I can really imagine Octavia drawing inspiration from the nature that surrounds her as she plays the cello. I look forward to seeing more *Good Job!*

Thanks for that. I have been around music for most of my life, but never played string instruments. I just notice that orchestra performers tend to take the bond with their instruments further. I play guitar and sing, did some tuba in middle school and piano as a kid, but I never felt that bond with an instrument.

cant wait to see more!!!!
So you are in theory trying to tear the Octascratch fannon a new one *hugs harder than should be pony or humanly possible* YOU ARE AWESOME

Hehehe, not so much that brutal. However, I am writing this with the hope that there will be at least some TaviScratch fans who give it a chance and still enjoy something outside their fandom. I appreciate why they're paired together, but there isn't much I can do with the pairing that hasn't been done, and the last thing I want to do is write a story people feel like they've read before.

All the same its nice to see A fic involving the two that isn't a ship fic and funny enough this only the (sadly) second fic I have read with Vinyl in antagonistic light. It also is nice to get away from the beaten horse (or pony) that is opposites attract. My ship hate and grumbling aside cant wait for more as I really enjoyed your last fic so Goddess speed to ya bud.
From a string instrument player, that has to be the best way to explain how it is! even when i play and i feel something is off i have to make sure that string is perfectly tuned up!
Favorite and watching this!

That's good to hear since I've never played anything stringed other than guitar.
I am really looking forward to the next installment of this story. The way you described octavia playing the cello was very good, It showed how passionate octavia is to play good music. It is stories like this that put octavia on my favorite background ponies list. Good job and hope to see more
flutterderp, much?

But she's still so adorable
And yea, once her mind gets going it goes until it breaks lol
Another good chapter
You know how I feel about it, but I just wanted to congratulate you on a job well done.

It would be a mess without your help, but you know that, since you read the horrid first draft...
MOAR! PLEASE! MOAR!
That...could have gone a lot better. I hope she brought a shovel to dig her way back out.
Octavia is so poor she can't even make decisions...totally...
1068371
A shovel will only dig her a deeper hole. Things had to get interesting at some point, right?
1078949
Yea, Tavi is very flawed... In so many ways... I need to love her more.
This is good so far. I do like the metaphors and imagery you use. I also think you're very good with dialogue. I don't know if I can offer any bit of constructive criticism, other than I wasn't too big of the point-of-view change, but that's only a personal preference on my part.
I shall be waiting for your next chapter.
