Spin-off of My Little Pony: Friendship Is Absurd. Takes place after Chapter 43 ("Shadow Played").

What would have happened if, in reaction to Anon-A-Miss, the main characters hadn't jumped to conclusions? What if they waited for more proof? The answers... are not found in this story. Instead, enjoy an absurd parody of My Little Pony: The Movie.

Actual plot synopsis: It's the premiere of Mare Do Well: The Movie! Or it would have been, if the whole shebang wasn't interrupted by an invasion by Tempest Shadow. Now, with all of their regular allies captured or conveniently unavailable, it's up to our regular group of semi-sociopaths (Sunset, Trixie, Lightning Dust, Gilda, Suri, Flim, Flam) to go find the hippogriffs and save Equestria. Or give up in frustration and move somewhere else instead. It could go either way, really.

How dare you trick me? I wanted my what-if story. I'll still read this, but I'm very disappointed.

I really thought that the Storm King was Chrysalis in disguise. They just seemed to have similar personalities.

You know... I'm not sure why I read this.

No really that's it. I have no idea why I read this.

They just can't stand Chryssie's greatness.

Maybe a shark will eat Skystar or something.

Yeah, the bill for gryphons helping would be massive.

So, the Storm King was like an extra annoying Chrysalis.

Almost at the consultant!

The sad thing is, this had more interesting moments than the actual movie (excluding the world building and random digs at the movie).

With the exception of one note gags, and Chrysalis and Trixie*, everyone seemed to posses character qualities recognizable from the show (if grossly exaggerated), and (certain jokes aside) this was actually pretty fun to read.

Although the fact that it copies the movie so thoroughly, is (in my opinion) a detriment to what could've been a really interesting break from the show.

Having the Storm King as a ally would have been interesting, given how well he's characterized, and considering he's the only villain comedian in the show, besides Discord.


* I eventually just started reading Trixie's lines as Juniper Montage, because of how relatively placid she was being by comparison. And because that way, at least her freaky knowledge of film made a little more sense.
