Ow shoot here we go

I always forget how next-level incredible your writing is until I pick up one of your fics and go 'oh yeah lol they're perfect'

'here we go' indeed. :twilightsmile:
10343556
That's a huge compliment coming from you considering I just finished my third read-through of BLF :twilightsheepish:, admittedly this one is a lot more just... tragic than violent, so it's probably a lot more up your alley than Dead by Sunset was.

10343569
There is a tragedy tag....
I would know considering i just checked.

In my opinion, I feel like Twilight should've just taken Sunset's body into the portal and bury her in her own birth home world than this world who hasn't helped her and even neglects defending her cause it just feels wrongs of having her buried in the human world. I can't be the only one who thinks the exact same thing.

10343686
That's the issue, though. It's not Sunset's body, there isn't anything to take back. Twilight fabricated a body that just looks like Sunset so the world where she lived had something to bury that wouldn't raise questions or suspicions about magic.

Another Dead By Sunset story? Damn, it must be my birthday or sumn!

I have so many Dead by Sunset stories lined up, mate. It's absolutely mad. I'm working on this one, it'll have several chapters, and I've got several more, plus Dead by Midnight which will come out eventually too.

10343670
That's fair, that actually fits this more than the Horror tag anyway. I just tagged it as Horror because its parent story is Horror.

10343854
just making sure you know

10343840
I look forward to all of it.

Damn your fics are good.

I did not expect the first chapter to be a funeral, but it was an unexpected welcome surprise... In a weird way.

10344340
After the end of DBS everyone (fairly) assumes she's dead. :twilightblush:

God damn, we officially begin the story with so much emotional drama... I have no clue R.D. had it pretty badly before and after she betrayed Sunset as well as leaving her behind in The Entity...

Well, everything seems to be going just fine there...

I enjoyed it from the reader's side of the screen, though. :)

10344913
Everything is fine

It looks like Dash is on her way to becoming Amara's next Killer. This version of The Commons sounds like a prime recruitment ground for them.

God damn Roxanne that's badass

10345576
Amara?
10346000
Was Roxanne supposed to Rainbow?

10346000

No it's a song lyric and I couldn't get it out of my head lol. I'm a little wacky 😂😉

10346078
It's a theory amongst my friends that The Entity is an iteration of The Darkness. The creators of DeadBy Daylight refer to The Entity as female (as much as an Eldritch Abomination conforms to human gender concepts anyway) and the female version of The Darkness is named Amara.

10345024
Yeeeep. Just fine. I mean, look, she's got gainful employment now, too!

10345576
"It looks like Dash is on her way to becoming Amara's next Killer."
Well, she did literally pray to it asking it to take her again, so... yeah, that does seem pretty likely, and I was wondering about it too.

For a second, I thought Rainbow was back in the entity, when she was fixing that dead gen, nice little trick there.

Jesus Christ she went downhill real fast

Definitely earning that dark tag. I gotta say I'm enjoying Rainbows descent into madness, curious to see where this is goin.

10354847
In ten seconds flat one might say.
Wow that was dark given the context. Sorry about that.
But yeah, Rainbow goes all in all the way all the time.

...Weeeeeell...
...So, how long until the first murder, I'm wondering?
On the ""plus"" side, Rainbow, I'm not sure you could get away from the Entity now if you wanted to; I think it's probably waiting to take you to see just how far you'll go, and how much... preparation for your new job you'll do to yourself all on your own.
Oh dear.

I don't know what's more sad and terrifying, the fact that rainbow has become an addict or the fact that she is trying to build Freddy Krueger's claw in a unstable state... either way someone's going to get hurt real bad real soon

My god. Her descent was great and chilling to read. Loved how the pieces were revealed to us. You always 'pick' on Rainbow Dash but I know it's because you see her story potential.

You're really building a universe here and setting up so many pieces for your big sequel! So many side stories in between two longer stories. At this rate I think I want a physical print of all of this. Not sure if the audience is there but it deserves said audience!

The opposite happened to me here compared to another of your Dead by Sunset stories, I was sure this was finished now. But no! It's incomplete still! I'm terrified in the good way to see where this goes! I know it's not marked horror but that sense of dread is still permanently present throughout this so far.

There were lots of familiar elements here from the familiar lore you use in your other stories about EqG Canterlot' layout and "runners". It makes the whole world feel familiar to me. So I'm strangely comfortable in this dark, cold universe you've crafted.

10360596
I'm glad you're enjoying the side-stories. I feel like I need to relink that blog I wrote where I explain how, 'no, really, I really don't hate Rainbow Dash', because I really just kick the dog with her.

This here, by the by, is why I was so ambivalent about writing Dead by Midnight. Because I knew all along it would involve a massive time skip, and that would require a ton of extra work. Dead by Sunset was relatively self-contained, but Dead by Midnight was always going to be significantly heavier. Also if I'm being honest, I didn't actually intend this to be this long, but the moment I start writing it the words just poured out. Rainbow's story just sort of exploded, and now it's really turning into its own story. It occurs to me, actually, that this is the first time I've really written Rainbow Dash as a protagonist. It's certainly the first time I've written from her perspective not counting the few sections of DBS where she had perspective parts.

As for the familiar feeling of Canterlot, that's actually been a long-running goal of mine. I purposefully write in the same version of Canterlot, just slightly different timelines. In the same way that Manehattan is the EQG version of New York, my headcanon is that Canterlot is the EQG version of Chicago, and I try to keep that cohesive.

Yeeees. More of your Dash to make me anxious about! Love it man, always looking forward to more DBD content from ya.

Having just been broken up with by my fiance, I understand people being too positive and not wanting to accept their help or even be around them. But, the hopeless romantic in me wants to see Rainbow being helped and cared for and finding some pretty lady to spend her life with.

10368073
So, per usual for Dead by Sunset (and anything I write), Rainbow Dash is definitely gonna get her ass kicked from Canterlot to Manehattan, but I also have a rule of 'no bad endings' so I promise that however dark Rainbow's story gets in this (and boy it gets dark), she will get a happy end.

10368135
Well, I look forward to every word of that.

I just need to see them reunite, Dash is like gonna die.

Well, it would be nice to think this is the start of things getting better, but... we'll see...


10368135
Oh! I'd forgotten that rule. :)
Of course, on the other hand... we're not at the end yet. And from what else you say in the comment, aye, I'm still pretty skeptical things start getting better here...
But should still be good on this side of the screen, I think. :D

10368160
I mean, it probably won't be all the way 'good' until the end of Dead by Midnight, but yeah. Don't worry, I have her arc planned out.

Ah. The re-yeet. That's never fun.

Normally I'd be clamoring for some to please hug her but idk if that's such a good idea here

10370100
She heals fast, she's not the friggin Wolverine, :twilightsheepish:.

That was such a depressing & difficult reunion between former friends & to see it end with Rainbow passing out with Sunny Krueger's voice haunting her once again was heartbreaking & terrifying.

It's amazing how similar losing your best friend and getting dumped by your fiance are.

I feel for Dash here, but she also needs to pull her head out of her ass. Drugs and self-harm don't solve anything, no matter how much you try or how hard you hope. The world, for better or for worse, doesn't quite work like that.

As always, I-A-M, I look forward to the next chapter, and I hope someday to add a hard copy of your works to my bookshelf.
