Looking forward to seeing where this goes.
Can't wait to see where this goes. The last one got abandoned.
Huh, didn't know you write such stuff.
Wasn't expecting that magic drain development. But I'm willing to be that unicorn is going to be either aware of Vinyl's presence or is going to end up letting on about Vinyl being at the club.
Great sequel. Cute ending!
Wasn't expecting that ending. Might just have to look into the possibility of making that sequel someday, sounds like it'd be super cute.

I'm looking forward to that, if you decide to do it

Thank you! :) Honestly, the ending was the hardest part and I'm still not satisfied with it... I couldn't get anything close to the cliffhanger ending of the original. ^^ But I felt, since that ending provided the hook for my story, it would be appropriate to leave this one open-ended.
Would love to see one!
I… don’t know how to even go about reacting to this fic. Well, no, not quite true, your prior ABDL fic prepared me to a degree for this. And like that one, this one tackles its subject matter honestly and sincerely from an outsider’s perspective, done with careful taste. So as far as being a proper story serving to normalise a weird trend, this works.
This story is one that’s not quite a comedy, but it’s certainly not the sad drama Starlight’s Secret was. As it’s following along with Vinyl’s utter befuddlement, it does give it some energy. Yet there’s certainly a fair bit of meandering - for a story set across just one night and the following morning, and with not that much honestly happening, it loses energy fast, leaving it feeling awfully shaggy and plodding especially by chapter 3. The Epilogue picks up some steam again to end on a decently satisfying note, which helps.
Perhaps one who’s coming from the source material fic might have better attachment to the proceedings (I was never confused as to what was going on, so it’s not needed to read that fic, even if one is made aware of it). As it stands, irrespective of its subject matter, I found this fic a passable diversion, though not much more then that - for better or for worse, it does read as being conceived and written very quickly. Which is how you write, so I’m not surprised! But rarely has that been more apparent then here.
Still, it’s amusing enough that if one is curious in the fic, however they actually feel about the subject matter, they should read it. There’s my endorsement!
P.S. I assume the fic is meant to be marked as Complete, yes?

I didn't actually expect you to read this one ^^ I figured the Fetish tag, plus the fact that it's a sequel to something else, would keep people away :) I appreciate you putting the time in though, as it's interesting to get an outsider's perspective on it.
Funnily enough, I would say the ending is the part that was the least nailed down and took the least of my focus. The majority of my efforts were spent in the first three chapters and they contain the real meat of the story that I wanted to tell. I will accept that the pacing is rather blegh, though. For me, just getting through the night in a natural-feeling way was one of the hardest parts, and something that the original did much better.
This is certainly the case. Although the fic is a continuation, it's also my homage to Wandering Pigeon's original. The original Something To Rave About is a blend of comedic farce and diaper fetishry, but I think the reason people love it is the way it opens a window into a very genuine-feeling Equestrian ABDL community. The way it's set up, you can honestly imagine such a place really existing. I think a lot of people who read it - myself included - found that it felt so real, that they really wanted that place to be real. Much of my motivation for the fic is just the opportunity to spend a little more time there.
In the original, Vinyl essentially got dragged into the subculture from the outside, and is made to endure things that fetishists would happily be doing in her place. And while the original doesn't explicitly say it, the clear implication is that Vinyl would probably grow to enjoy this alternative scene, as Berry did before her. After all, it essentially solves the biggest problem that she has while DJing. It's that thread of gradual, reluctant acceptance that I tried to pick up and continue in this fic. For example, Vinyl volunteers for the diapers even though she doesn't want them, she doesn't question having to drink from baby bottles any more, and she is generally less resistant to her boss than she was in the original.
In that case, you'll be surprised to learn that this is a rare fic that I've been writing on and off for months - which kind of proves my point about just how hard it is to write something piecemeal instead of all at once. It was a massive struggle getting this to the finish line, and I practically forced myself to just push it out in the end, making only a final adjustment pass before publishing each chapter. The biggest difficulty was avoiding filler - I knew how I wanted the shape of the night to go, but I have absolutely no idea how to fill the length of time of an all-night dance, particularly without just repeating the events of the original. The dance skips time quite a lot, and is really only centered around a few events, but I tried to make the progression of time feel natural without resorting to fluff.
Argh I knew I'd forget

Perhaps I was just reacting to the change of locale and what was happening in the Epilogue then. In any case, I was awfully tired towards the end of reading this fic, for totally unrelated reasons. So perhaps that affected my perception of it.
Ha, I am certainly not immune to the sensation of being so captivated with a fic’s world/setting as to write a continuation just to see more (past fandoms, as in). Interesting. Perhaps I should give the original a read, then. If it’s a thoughtful and nuanced as you say, and given this fic I have no reason to doubt that, it sounds worth a look. Even for me, when the only two Adult Baby fics I’ve read are yours and I would never normally read such things. Just goes to show, anything can be done tastefully.
Still, fair play to ya for finally getting it out there. Only thing left now is to do up the look back blog, while it’s fresh in your memory (you could even justify skipping the one for that Custardverse fic, if that’s still causing trouble). Even if you’ve been working on this for months, no time like the present, as they say.
I’m very happy to see this story getting a part 2 even if unofficial. Because I was tracking the original for months hoping it got more added and it never came. So thank you for continuing it yourself! /)
Really cool to see someone revisit an old fic of mine and add more to it. Really like what you ended up doing with the world, feels like a continuation and an expansion of what I was writing way back then. Thanks for letting me know you made this!

Woohoo, thank you for stopping by, and I'm super glad you enjoyed! ^.^

No worries, glad you liked it!
I enjoyed this a bunch! Some really entertaining dialogue in there. A rather unexpected turn in the second chapter, which helped flesh out the story and bring a particular character into play. Nice to visit The Fountain of Youth again. ^_^
good start, I'll say, like the last one I read. :)
huh interesting part to add in the lullaby Fluttershy sung for the crusaders in the show

It made thematic sense! I think I had Sim Gretina's remix in mind. :)
