MrAskAPirate


Unicorn-riding Space Pirate

As ye well know, nearly every sailor author comes up with more ideas than his head can hold or his quill can ink... but sometimes them little scraps o' storytellin' do make it down onto the page... a scene here, an introduction there; little snippets o' grander tales, cursed to forever sail a sea obscured by an unpublished fog...

These here be such stories; the scribbled scrimshaw of yers truly: MrAskAPirate!

:twilightsheepish: Uh, cut! Cut please!

What? What's wrong?

:facehoof: Really? That's how you want to introduce this glorified scratchpad?

Okay, okay; I'll drop the accent.

:twilightsmile: And take off the eyepatch?

::sigh:: ... Fine.

Anyway, this is going to be a collection of the little bits and pieces that I've written and want to share with everypony, but don't quite qualify as anything that could be published on their own. In some cases it'll be a story I wrote the intro or a few scattered scenes for, but never completed. Sometimes they'll be little side-stories to my other works, or even the occasional 'deleted scene.'

As per normal for these types of collections, expect the characters, tags, and tone to vary widely. If you follow my writing you probably already know that I like to try out different things, so expect more of the same!

... I mean, more of things that are very different! From one another. Which is the same as my usual body of work. Of different things.

:facehoof: Smooth.

Shut up, Sparkle.

The Friendship Games are over, magic in the human world is once again under control (sort of), and Sunset Shimmer is looking forward to a nice, relaxing celebration with all her friends, both old and new.

Too bad she ends up stuck on repeat; living the same night over and over with no idea why and even less idea how to make it stop.

Forced to watch her closest friends live out the same mistakes again and again, Sunset must find a way to break the cycle before she herself breaks down... but is the solution as simple as it first appears, or is the wild Equestrian magic stirring in her soul a sign of something more?

Why the heck does Vinyl Scratch have a car that can transform into a giant sound system thingy?


Written by request for Bookish Delight because chicks dig giant robots EQG Vinyl needed some more fandom love; continued by request because apparently everyone digs giant robots, :twilightoops:

Sonata Dusk is kinda confused. Sure, she and the other Sirens were defeated at their own game and left powerless, homeless, and hungry, but Adagio and Aria are taking this whole thing, like, WAY too seriously.

Only one thing is absolutely, positively guaranteed to cheer them up.

It's time for a taco run!

Now with 20% more Feels! :pinkiesad2:

Also now with a TVTropes page (apparently)! :rainbowderp:
