um...
Well... that wasn't what I was expecting. Normally I don't read Scootabuse fics but seeing Daring Do as a character I had to give it a chance. To be honest I like the ending, Scootaloo is not an orphan and her mother loves her very much. That by itself separates your story from most of the Scootabuse fics out there. You did good.
2003363 That's because it is! *evil laugh*
2003364 I'm magical~~~
2003367 ... What?
2003392 Glad you liked!
While the story was good I found it difficult to believe that as an adventurer she has to take abuse from her husband, I mean she's supposed to be tougher than that.
2003409 Hmm, maybe I should have explained more. Dolly is not Daring Do, in my eyes. She is the author of the Daring Do books and Daring is highly based off of her personality/looks. (Besides, even the strongest of women can get into abusive relationships.)
I hope you enjoyed the story though.
2003415 The story was good but maybe you should reedit the fic a bit to include that little tidbit to avoid complications in the future.
"You'd be nothing about me!
I think you meant "You'd be nothing without me!" though I could be wrond.
Another good story. Though I agree a bit with 2003430. Until the last few lines, I was thinking Scootaloo's mom WAS Daring Do. Still an enjoyable story. Keep it up.
That was beautiful. In some twisted way, that was beautiful. It reminded me a lot of the movie: Once Were Warriors. If you've ever seen it, you wold see where I'm drawing this allusion from. If not, I'll sum it up for you: an abusive, alcoholic father slowly but surely tears his family apart, and after a series of heart aches his wife finally decides to storm out, taking the kids with her. A truly powerful film. I feel as though that same vibration the film gave me carried over to this story just as well. I thought it was quite clever the way you conveyed Daring in this story, that is to say the author of the novels with a little bit of her daughter's spunk thrown in, and embodied the father/husband as the arch-nemesis of the series. Kudos to you for taking such an odd concept and turning it into this piece. I enjoyed my read, thanks. Let's hope that others decide to give this one a shot before judging it based on the off putting coverart though.
Loathe,
Your Antagonist
2004339 I'm glad you liked it!
Poor Scootaloo.
so sad!!!but it was so beautiful, was listening to this song as I read your story...
Right into my unshielded feels. Owie, owie, owie, well done.
Thank you for this story.
It was truly sad, but it was amazing.
Both horrible, not meant in a bad way, and beautiful.
I never really like stories were children are being abused or are stuck in abusive homes but...
I truly like this story, it had a type of Dark Hope to it that made it vary magnetizing.
I liked the unique correlations you did with the Author-mother-main character of the series and the Villain-father-true villain.
I am at a lost for any more words right now.
but three things; 1). Think of the all the invisible strings that tie us together.
2). I hope you keep writing.
3). Good luck in the future.
Thank you again.
2008200 You're very welcome!
A sad, but very well done story.
Good job
Spoiler for those who didn't get the ending: Scootaloo's mother is NOT Daring Do, obviously, but she writes the books and the character of Daring is based off of her. Ahuizotl is based off of Aerial, Scoot's jerkwad of a dad.
I can't remember whhy exactly, but, whenever I hear or read it, it always brings tears to my eyes: You are my sunshine, my only sunshine, you make me happy, when skys are grey, you'll never know dear, how much I love you, please, don't take my sunshine away... Thank you, I really needed this.
2116095 No problem whatsoever.
ARGH!
Right in the heartstrings.
The feels man, the feels!
You seriously seem to have a talent for making me tear up with your sadder stories.
It's absolutely brilliant.
I need to stop underestimating your power within the "Sad" and "Dark" tags.
Keep at it, because when it's absolutely brilliant.
2138372 Glad you thought so!
2138372 *pulls out M16 and shoots the feels* GOD DAMN FEELS MAKING PEOPLE SAD!
Commendable effort! Domestic abuse is a very dangerous area for writers to delve into, but you pulled it off well. I especially like the opening paragraphs, where we're immediately pulled into Scootaloo's world, and from the very beginning we're shown just how trapped and helpless she feels. And the ending twist was actually pretty creative, with the mother and daughter using the fictional world of Daring Do as a means of escapism.
My only complaint is that the dialogue can sometimes come off as a little... ham-fisted, especially the father character's.
I mean, I understand he's supposed to be a bastard, but when he outright says, "You're a woman and therefore only good for cooking and sex," he comes off as more of a strawman than a real person (or, rather, a real stallion). Do you get what I'm saying?
I know this is a rather old story, but freaking wow, Princess Rares!
I am not normally a fan of scootabuse, because often it is done for shameless feels. But this, wow. Domestic abuse is scary as shit, and this story captured it… well, I hate to use the word amazing, given the context, so let's go with really, really well. I am amazed the way you were able to treat such a dark story with such sincerity.
I've read and faved a few of your stories, and heard a few of the others read by ObabScribbler.
But this story. This story impresses upon me how good a writer you are, and deserve a follow.
Interesting.
I liked it.
6021774 It's self-explanatory; Dolly eventually got out, spoke up to the police and Aerial went to prison, so Scootaloo was finally a happy little filly.
6022233 I don't touch old stories.
That O should be capital.
those feels man
Oh, wow.
