"Be good to yourself, because nobody else has the power to make you happy."

The sign by the tent which had mysteriously sprung up overnight seemed obvious enough, but Twilight couldn't help but be curious. Besides, she really needed it to move on. That's why she asked Spike to investigate... and here our story begins.

It's not what you think. Or, it may be exactly what you think. Hmm...

Alright, gonna keep an eye on this one.

You’s? I've never seen that one show up in my American lingo or much at all really outside of certain communities and states. Then again I try to actually speak with actual English and not the broken hick-speak normally heard in my area.
I’m American, proud of it, but I know we butchered our English to the point it’s hard to follow sometimes. That we have our own accent is a startling prospect.:pinkiecrazy:

Full disclosure: I probably got that expression from certain Looney Tunes cartoon gangsters in the 40's and 50's.

Like good ol' Mugsy for instance:

Hey, I learned from the best, wouldn't you agree? :scootangel:

In that case, it's spelled "youse." Some spellcheckers will even recognize it. ( But not "spellcheckers".)

Well if anyone would know, it's youse. :raritywink: Cheers... about to edit now.

All right, I kin safely say youse gots my attention.

9075739
I see what youse did there. :rainbowlaugh:

I also see that this joke will be run into the ground soon. Better stop now, before T-Shirts start coming out with 'hilarious' variations of the theme emblazoned on them (seriously, if I see one more piece of 'KEEP CALM AND...' related merchandise, I... won't be very happy. :moustache:)

Well sometimes exaggerating one's flaws can make for good comedy, as I hope is the case here in this slightly off the wall fic. Thanks for reading this far, more to come soon. :rainbowwild:

Youse certainly did, didn’t ya, youse certainly did

This story sounds a bit like the Grinch :rainbowlaugh:

This is exactly what it looks like, isn't it?

9077151
Yeah, apart from the parts where the big green hairy guy goes around stealing presents. The similarities are truly uncanny... :raritywink:

Does this story have anything to do with circuses?

Spike is GLORIOUS!!!!

Question: Has Spike ever went or heard of a brothel?

I love the fact that this is one of those stories that takes "Lavender Unicorn Syndrome" and plays it for laughs.

Huk

O-K, this is getting interesting. I want to see what will Spiek tell Twi since:

[...] what happens in the Pleasure Pavilion, stays in the Pleasure Pavilion. Now, shall we get started?"

Update tomorrow?

9078806
Nope, right now. :pinkiehappy:


9077604
Yes. Yes, he is. :moustache:


9077780
Who knows. I don't see what relevance that has to the story... :applejackunsure:


9078509
You noticed. HURRAY! :twistnerd:

Nope. Nope nope nope. Don't like the new Spike. When the hares do it in Redwall, it's funny and endearing. This is just asinine. Twilight, be a dear and set fire to that obtrusive tent and its brainwashing occupant, would you?

Instead of answering her question directly, Spike let out a polite little snigger whilst addressing Twilight like she was a small filly who still had a lot to learn.

Well, she kinda is...

as well as formulate letters of apology to Miss Rarity and the honourable Princess Amber for secretly lusting after them without their express consent.

Ember and Rarity: "We are very, very dissapointed in you Spike."
Spike: "I know. What I did in the past was wrong and immature, but..."
Ember and Rarity: "That's not what we are talking about!"
Spike: "I fear I don't understand..."
Ember and Rarity: "Let us put it simple: Come and join us for a roll in the hay."
Spike: "Well, now that you two have expressed consent we can continue with establishing an romantic..."
Ember and Rarity: "Shut up and take us already!"


Interesting chapter!
I'm curious where it goes.

Maybe Twilight can use magic to take on her rule 63 counterparts appearance to find out/infiltrate.

Wow, I'm loving the ridiculously exaggerated characterization everyone has.

So... which is the simpler explanation? New villain in town brainwashing Spike (and providing him with a tailored suit and accessories) or someone Spike knows and likes who could expect Twilight to show up for her chosen spot and send Spike in out of pique, suggesting to Spike a plan for seriously screwing with Twilight's head? (And screwing with Twilight's head usually results in spectacular and disturbing public behavior which would likely hurt her standing in a popularity contest...)

2024 and there is still no new chapter, I still haven't lost hope
