So much for using the well. Unless they can get the body out quickly anyway. Also, gravity does not work that way, seriously, she should have started falling back into the atmosphere as soon she ran out of momentum.
1841522: At the very least it plays the graphicness for laughs and makes the target punching bag not feel pain and come back. In other news; never give Rainbow Dash IDDQD.
Wow. If I didn't miss anything, nineteen (Or eighteen if he actually missed) deaths not long after waking up, one of which CAUSED her to wake up? And one caused by one of her best friends who she'll most likely have to reveal her condition to if she doesn't want them to suffer from poisoned water?
I honestly cannot express how relieved I am that she respawns and can't feel any pain. Erm... she's not gonna end up permanently dead at the end of the story, right?
1841937 *Nods in agreement* Personally, I don't like it when fics kill off one of the Mane 6 for real. Well... I can't stand it when it's Dashie who dies permanently. Just personally, and it's fine if she's ressurected.
... I just realized that Dashie'll have to tell Twilight about her actions before the latter goes stargazing next assuming it's anytime soon. Unless she wants her friend to freak out at nine identical, depressurized corpses anyway.
1842720 Princess Luna may also have a few questions. 'Rainbow Dash, my followers in the Astronomy Society have asked why I have multiple effigies of yourself in low orbit obscuring the night sky. I am curious about this as well ... '
1842726 *Shrugs* A bunch of changelings with the exact opposite of a Lemmings thought process?
Curious how Applejack'll react to Dashies death. Especially after she sees the eye impaled on the nail.
EDIT; I'm also curious if she'll figure out she killed her friend BEFORE Dashies respawn. In which case, I can't help but feel sorry for the poor girl.
It's a good job she can't feel any pain, some of those deaths would have really hurt. It's turning into a Happy Tree Friends level of gore. I'd love for Twilight to look through her telescope and see the Rainbows in orbit.
Interesting story, in a morbid kind of way. Can't wait for someone to find one of the corpses. Thats not how orbits work though, I guess you could chalk it up to magic.
You are both quite right in the "Space/orbit/gravity does not work that way!" thing (decompression doesn't really work that way either, for that matter). This was a conscious decision, and I will handwave it like crazy later in the story, just you wait and see
Utterly gruesome and remarkably funny, especially Dash's incredibly nonchalance whenver she gets disemboweled, impaled, crushed, lacerated, asphyxiated, burned to crisp etc.
1844248 I've had the thought that Equestria's gravity is earth-normal at the surface, but due to different circumference and density, it has lower clouds and a shorter atmosphere.
I am SO watching this story, lots of fun. Oh, and,
To quote Adam Savage of Mythbusters, "Wow, that's just... wrongity wrong wrong..." I still like it of course. It's a wonderful concept, and the world needs more Comedy Gore stories. More?
Neither does the 'heat of re-entry'. Objects that do that are either in orbit around the Earth or the sun (with speeds in excess of 200 times terminal velocity, roughly). So don't forget to hand-wave that, too, as necessary.
I figure you can say Equestria's atmosphere and gravity are contained by a magical force field, kinda like a giant snow globe. Sun and moon and whatnot are not held in place by gravity, but moved around magically (also much smaller and closer than ours). The meteor-style flash fire is a side-effect of passing through the magical field into atmosphere, not due to any combination of air compression or friction.
It's so easy to hand-wave these things when "it's magic!" is an acceptable answer.
Dash blinked. The blur of wood came straight for her. She pushed her head back only for the long nail at the top end of the board to slam down into her eye. It pushed through to the back of her eye socket and into the rest of her skull in one fluid motion. Dash immediately went limp, falling backwards over the edge of the stone wall and down into the well. Her eye remained behind, the jagged edges of rust holding it in place until, with a faint, sticky twang, it snapped off free the rest of her face.
EWW EWW EWW EWW EWW
Yes, so I hate Eye Screams, in case you didn’t know. Well, I’m cringing at every gorific description of Rainbow Dash’s deaths, but I still like this story. The humour and the looming danger of the curse are both keeping me hooked like an ill-fated fish.
...So every time Rainbow Dash dies, she loses more and more sensation? This can’t be good.
Dash has died eighteen times (correct me if I'm wrong) in the past three chapters. I'm looking forward to seeing how the story goes from here on out, especially to see what the side effects are.
Oh, I'm sure she's fine AJ. After all, she has a curse quite similar to mine! However, it'd be a bitch getting out of that one... I'd probably drown upon reanimation
2782633 Hah, like that'll happe-*THUNK!* ... Ugh....what hit me? *A pony body is lying next to me, charred beyond recongnization* Oh mah GAWD It's happening!
ewwwww... well, at least AJ didnt see the body.
Well that well is totally poisoned now...

inb4 she tortures and kills dash, only for another one to pop up 10 seconds later.

Dash was trolling that Dragon
I wander what would happen if a guy looked through his telescope and saw all those Dash bodies floating in orbit he would freak!

1844296 What I'm amazed at is just how close a match the HTF and MLPFiM animation styles are, down to the colorful outlines.
I want a scene where Applejack thinks she's killed Rainbow.
That would be hilarious!

Dash dies. Dash comes back. Dash dies again. Guess what? Dash returns to life again!static.scribol.com/sites/default/files/imagecache/triad/traffix/1342113670aff21ceebb805f47adea9951faa26778.png

This whole fic reminds me of the bard in "The Gamers: Dorkness Rising."
Space? SPAAAACE!
@Equestrian orbital mechanics:
...Huh. Alrighty then.
I guess gravity works oddly in Equestria.
I think that leaving so many bodies around has got to have some side effect when the spell is removed.
Well crap, I totally thought she was gonna see Rainbow Dash die. That's a good thing right? I hoped that she would.
I can officially say that Dash has been cursed with awesome.
Soon, it will come. The day the sky rains dead Rainbow Dashes.
Dash has died eighteen times (correct me if I'm wrong) in the past three chapters. I'm looking forward to seeing how the story goes from here on out, especially to see what the side effects are.

This is very enjoyable!

*A pony body is lying next to me, charred beyond recongnization*
Oh mah GAWD It's happening!
Reminds me of my first few launches in kerbal space program. Pore, pore kerbals...
Does the well water taste corpsey to you?
If this wasn't Equestria I would be confused as to why the gravity seemed to shut off when she got into space. Anyways, loving the story!

She got stuck in a Death Loop this is the only story that makes me laugh about death like this.
>>Terra Aeterna
Yet...
Lol... Just... wtf?
I just love her reaction to this curs.
"Fuck it, I'm having fun!"
I, that was... I don't even...
I never stopped smiling at this chapter. The space deaths, slowly making her way back to the planet, the meteorbow, the dragon, it was beautiful.
I'm sure she's fine, Applejack. Definitely.
Wow, two all-the-way-throughs, both mouth to ass and ass to mouth. Rainbow's going to develop some weird quirks.
