As for my suggestion of creating a short story using a random blind-bag pony.
Join Bumblesweet through her day of pollinating Sweet Apple Acres and watch her fend off hungry bears.all while she drags along television show host and failed opera star Glitchy Hooves.
This is all done in a parody of Dirty Jobs with Glitchy Hooves as Mike Rowe.
If you guys have read any of my other stories then you'd see that I tend to put the cycloptic blue stallion in a position of a reporter of some kind..

what's a blind bag pony?

The blind bag ponies are the toys that come in those random bags like this:

They are also known as minis and the ones that aren't known characters are called HasbrOC's.
I made a blog called the blind bag pony challenge in which you write a short story featuring the following rules:
1. It cannot be about any of the mane six or any preestablished character (Granny Smith, Shining Armor, Princess Candence, Gilda, etc)
2. It can be any genre and rating.
3. However, you can only use special editions of any the mane six. I made this addendum just because a story about why Rarity glows in the dark would be somewhat interesting. Example: glow in the dark Pinkie, metallic Applejack, clear Twilight.
1556903 It's a little thing you can get at stores featuring small, miniature ponies. Most, if not all, are recolors of canon toys and characters. Also, they have never been in the show, and have no canon personality. It allows creativeness, since you can only base it off of their color, what they look like, and their cutie marks.

They're the little figurines you can buy for about $2 that come completely concealed in their packaging so you don't know what pony you receive until you open it. I think they're also called "mystery packs."

Just...now that you know what they are, don't start buying them. They're addictive!!!
1556966 I can't, they're not sold where I am
(At least, I don't think so...)

That'll save you some money, then. Because seriously? I have, like, ten or so of them...Plus, three doubles that I gave to kids I know. And I bought them all within, like, two weeks.

I have like 25, they are addicting and finding the one you want is a pain as well (Trixie).

There are websites that can help you with that! See here!
This kind of challenge sounds like a helluva lot of fun... I need to try that when I clear my slate.
Those commercials are just epic!
Bizarre and very cute. Bumble felt a bit too much like a Pinkie recolour to really stand out for me. I do lvoe the dirty jobs lens of the fic and that was really cute. It fits really well with things.
