Temporary AN: Chapters 9 and 10 will be published at the same time.
Sorry for the slight delay. Also, Merry Xmas.
It´s official, Shining Armor is a pathetic wimp unable to keep his blade on its sheath.
Any possibility of Rarity getting a comeback for her actions, if only the discovery of the forbidden fruit, for which she has sacrified everything, becoming sour and unsubstantial in her mouth?
I have a feeling... A feeling that tells me (hopes) that Rarity really will get hers.
I hate this story so much. (in a good way... whatever that means)
And I hate myself just a bit more for still thinking this is going to turn around somehow, but... yeah. Looking forward to see how you close this off.
Ooooh I have been waiting so long for this, and it completely paid off!
This chapter was just one mind-blow after another, and I can say with absolute honesty that I did not see any of this coming, not at all. Well, aside from the obvious-from-preface fact that Rarity ends up with Shining, but it's not what I imagined would go down at all. It's better
But it still doesn't stray into the realm of unbelievability, which is what helps make this story sosososo perfect. The plot twists and turns in a way that one never sees coming, yet all makes sense when it's revealed.
And that sweet, sweet character development. I just adore how Rarity has gone from a (relatively) innocent mare who just wanted a night to live her fantasy to this insatiable monster. And again, it's believable. Each chapter saw her turn a little more nasty, a little more conniving, and now it's finally culminated (at least I think so, I dread to think how she can get worse than this!).
That scene between Shining, Rarity and Cadance was heart breaking, it brought tears to my eyes The whole story, I've been unaffected by the fact that Shining was cheating (I was focusing more on Rarity's emotional state), but that bit made me realise just how heart wrenching the situation is. I can't even imagine how much regret and guilt Shining is feeling, imagine if he hadn't give in that one night. I'm also really interested to see how (or if) Rarity deals with the realisation that she never loved Shining, only loved her imagined ideal of him.
This is also the chapter that finally made me utterly hate Rarity. In a good way. She's my favourite character and all, but god damn do I love hating her here.
...Sorry this was loooong. This story stirs up emotions and intrigue in me like no other. Now I want more
Happy Christmas, thank you for this present!
I was waiting for the time when this wonderful piece of writing would grace fimfiction... only found it now. I'll take that as a personal christmas present!
This better end with that cunt's slow, painful death.
Best Xmas gift ever. I cannot wait.

She makes it easy to hate her, eh?
But honestly... I can't. I'd love to, yet I feel... pity. And disgust. She's so expertly manipulating everypony around her; she even used Shining Armor and Cadance's love against each other.
At the same time, seeing her so desperately trying to manipulate herself into happiness, to convince herself that she's so unfeeling makes me pity her. I think she's sick, but I'm no expert, so my prognosis doesn't count for much. The one pony Rarity is lying to the most is Rarity. I'm not sure she'll even remember what happiness feels like, just as the sex she and Shining Armor had at the end is stale, painful, hollow and meaningless.

I think she will. As I've commented before, this story is classic noir in many ways, all the most heart-wrenching ones.
And in noir, the wicked rarely escape their fates, even if that fate is only misery.
Hell of a Christmas gift though. For a moment, I was wondering if Shining might not take the third way out of Rarity's ultimatum. Another 'accident.' Could still happen....
3679562
And Celestia? do you think, after the news get to her ears, and figures out the extend of Rarity´s crimes, will merely resign herself and leave the vamp get away unpunished?
No matter how skilled can be Rarity manipulating others, or how much influence can she gets as Shining´s new consort, Celestia is a ruler with thousands of years of experience over her shoulders. And since Rarity can no longer be the Bearer of Generosity, she is fair game.
3680100
From an in-world angle, valid point. I just don't think it'll get that far.
Bringing about your own downfall is a common theme, and she hasn't harmed Celly directly.
3680449
At this point, Rarity has:
- Broke the bonds between the Bearers in a more insidious way Discord could have ever dreamed.
- Tried to kill her niece and her unborn foal. bringing her into despair like not even Chrysalis could.
- Damaged the family of her most faithful student.
Yes, I think Celestia will be very, very pissed. Even if she cannot condemn Rarity publically, there are many ways for Equestria´s ruler to make the bitch´s life as unpleasant (or short) as possible...
...After all, accidents happens
P.E: Don´t forget Luna´s oneiromancy. She can turn Rares´ dreams into Silent Ponyville.
P.E.E: But I agree with you. Is more fitting to leave karma do the work.
3680470
Oh, certainly Celestia's got reasons to be pissed off. I'm just discussing genre appropriate penalties, which would involve Rarity bringing about her own downfall somehow, possibly even just by having fate itself step in and drop that chandelier on her head without any help.
Okay.... I need to go lie down after this chapter. That seems happen to me after each chapter of this story.
I am just... I knew this was coming, but I honestly thought Cadence was going to die and likely the foal with her. Even in the end Cadence is a saint against Rarity's devil. The devil has won here.
At this point, there is no reason for any of the girls not the let all the information each them knows out of the bag, and maybe Twilight will connect the dots.
I see the last two chapters playing out in one of two ways.
1. Rarity is killed. Shining kills her. Maybe it's not him, maybe it's one the others. By poison maybe. I don't know, but Rarity has to die. She can't get away with this. Or Shining kills her and himself.
OR
2. Rarity 'wins'. Wedding happens and she lives 'happily' ever after. OR Shining waits till after she gives birth then kills her.
You know, I did notice one thing. No Pinkie mentioned. No Pinkie in the room with the other girls. I'm going to say, the harlequin that she is, Pinkie is going to do something.
Holy fuck. I... I need to go back to sleep now.
I am a big fan of this story, but I have not been able to read it since Applejack moved in. You Sir Author said it would have a happy ending and Samwise Gangee explains it best: It's like in the great stories, the ones that really matter. Where you did not want to know the ending because how could the ending be good when there was so much wrong?
Just to clarify there IS a 'happy ending' right?
3702611
SPOILER:
Yes, there will be a happy closure to all this. By God, I will make sure this will have a happy ending for the same reason Applejack keeps on loving Rarity. I promise that there will be a happy ending here; but what I can't promise is that my writing skill is good enough to make it satisfying. For my own personal and psychological reasons, I'm betting 'all in' and laying down all the cards: this fic will have a happy closure if it means sacrificing conformity, views, and thumbs ups.

Rarity is really becoming dislikable in this story. And where did pinkie go? She suddenly disappeared from the story.
3748126
I know this is your story, but considering how much Rarity has stepped up from the Moral Even Horizon, or the emotional damage caused to the rest of the cast, doesn´t a happy ending seem out of place?
I know it´s a personal preference of me, but I hate Karma Houdinnis. Actions have consequences, whatever we like or not.
Before I start chapter 8, Predictions!: Cadance survives the chandelier but her baby does not. And she has brain damage. Pinkie tipped Rainbow off about Rarity's birth control (get the wheels in motion), she's been playing the fool since Rarity reacted that when upon hearing every-one was eager about what happened with her and Applejack, not Shining. Speaking of which, Shining will not believe Cadance was an accident or intentional, and Rarity's going to call him out on it.
edit Weeellll shit! It looks like Rarity's won. Go home folks. Good game.
No brain damage to Cadance or baby, Shining's confrontation didn't go as pretty much any-one expected, but Pinkie Pie hasn't tipped her hand yet. I'm going all in and saying she's still the lynch pin that unravels all Rarity has done. I guess it's called Gingerbread House since you spend months planning and preparing gingerbread houses, and hours doing the final preparations and contruction, and their fun to look at but once the celebration's over (Christmas, or the Preface Chapter in this case), every-one forget's about it and they look tacky. It's better if their just tossed out once the novelty's worn off. Rarity, your Gingerbread House marriage is doomed by it's very nature.
Now what will I read until the next chapters? <pout>

Who says the happy ending is Rarity's? We will just have to wait and see.
Its hearts and hooves day...well its 12:40 but you know what i mean and i just feel like...life is better when i finished this and really...i just want everyone to die by pinkie just...plz let it happen and ill be really happy and it well be a plot twist
I fully interpret "All About Rarity has a happy ending" to mean "Rarity gets eaten alive by wolves".
And here I was thinking, things didn't unravel for Rarity last chapter - surely they do now. Yet she still has a vice-grip of control. Man....she's good...but now what...she's going to get married and live happy-ever-after having betrayed everyone? Will she (ever) get some sort of comeuppance? Will she be the villain that gets everything she ever wanted? ...oooh,the suspense.
And - foreshadow cleaning lady! Just in case :P
