Fun with rusty metal.

Rainbow Dash has planned the BEST April Foal's Day prank EVER, but will she be able to fool her target? More to the point, will her target even care?


This was written for the EqD April Fool's Day fan fiction contest a few months back.

I'm dense; If I'm reading right, the prank is on the reader?

My brain, you have destroyed it.

... What was the point of Faust entering your story and breaking the fourth wall? :derpyderp1:

Towards the end of the story, when Rainbow Dash explained what she thought would be a really good prank, what she was actually doing was indirectly revealing what had happened throughout the story, and why. Your answer is in that paragraph.

How did...But you just....Wuaaa?

This makes no sense. I feel like I'm missing something critical :derpytongue2:

somehow I think I should have read this during april... *Thu-* er, *hoofs up*

YOU SLY SON OF A MARE.:twilightangry2:

When I read this, all the way to the end, I had the blankest expression on my face. And no joke, I shouted, actually shouted "...YOU CLEVER ****ER!"

I give you massive props and a massive 5 stars.

I... Uh...

Wow.

You win. My brain loses.

Good show, sir.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!


BEST PRANK EVER!
Did not see it coming!

Left the fold to fold your own
slips through time to new from old
Carried case, no need to chase
the joke has yet been told

NOPE! It's tooooo good! Here! You get a second poem!
Left, left, right dash left right dash. (cheat code! shh!)

when you smile it lights your eyes
just as tear drops make you cry
the heart of stone is soft indeed,
as water drips down in it's steed
glory, grace, and just to do
thank you kindly,
It was fun being you!

Holly muther of BUCK!!!! My mind exploded, i acctually had to read those paragraphs again to understand if i got it right! :rainbowkiss:

And honestly, i never thought that the umm......human as i think it was stated......was human. I actually thought it might be Celestias Mother at first, then i thought it was like a gray mare with hair up in a bun, glasses and a Cutie Mark in the shape of a computer or book with a quill. :pinkiehappy:

Mind has officially been BLOWN. Well done, sir, well done. :scootangel:

also 5 stars.

the efort im puting in to try and understand is causing my brain to stall:derpytongue2:

Um. Maybe I just missed the prank?

This is the godawful result when writers try to be "meta." "None of this is real, you don't even exist?" Such pretentiousness deserves no reward other than a swift poke in the eye. Deliberately destroying suspension of disbelief and reader immersion ceased to be clever back when "Ceci n'est pas une pipe" was new. It's bad enough when everyone resorts to breaking the fourth wall over and over again--- but you at least need to leave the FLOOR intact.

If you didn't like it, then you didn't like it. Not everyone enjoys this sort of story. I'm sorry that I've failed to entertain you. I'm not sorry for writing it though. Keep in mind what it was originally written for.

I cracked up with the human in this book part...:rainbowlaugh:
