For some reason I cant stop reading that cupcake story. It's written so well. And detailed...:barf: Also, I missed another box rating spree...

It's just because it's you ponys. If it were to be Humans It wouldn't be that much worse.

[QUOTE=ProffesorAssHat;28763520]Started crying near the end of page 2. Lesson here: Diabetes are a bitch.[/QUOTE] If that made you cry then you probably won't make it through the ending chapter. :P

I don't really read fanfics. But still, since everyone is reading it I will give it a try.

Talking about fanfictions, I rewrote most of mine. And I have to say, I suck at english, especially at 11 pm.

[QUOTE=knighty;28763364]Nor do I. I hate it. I really dislike the Derpy obsession, to me it just screams OMG THEY KNOW ABOUT US OMGOMGOMG. Why get so obsessed with a character that has absolutely no development? The thing I like so much about MLP is how fantastic the main cast is, and yet there's probably more derpy fanart than some of the main cast.[/QUOTE] You make pretty good points, but I still think the concept of them "canonizing" Derpy is really neat.

Yeah, it's a nice nod to the community but people have taken it too far as I'm concerned. Meh. Here's a cute shipfic for anyone who cares for them. [url]http://www.equestriadaily.com/2011/01/story-make-me-better-botique.html[/url]

[QUOTE=knighty;28763726]Yeah, it's a nice nod to the community but people have taken it too far as I'm concerned. Meh.[/QUOTE] The thing is, Derpy is an empty character with a special physical appearance, this leads people to think about how she lives, how she could act like. It is easier to invent part of an character and using that as a base make a story you would appreciate. Using a character that is fully developed takes a lot of time to study and use, something most people do not want to do. Of course this is only for the people that think about what they do, and not those that go: "OMG LOOK DERPY AT 00:28 on 01:12 and on 18:54-19:00!!!1!".

The only reason she has her "special" appearance is because of a nod to the community. That's the only way I see it. I'll never see her as anything more than an amusing appreciation of the fandom that has appeared. Her inclusion in somewhat serious fics tends to ruin them for me.

Is it just me, or did Twilight come off as slightly nuts in "Look Before You Sleep"? In the beginning, her giddiness about having a slumber party gave me the impression that she had been locked up in solitary confinement for weeks. "Hey everyone LET'S HAVE A SLUMBER PARTY HEHEHEHEHEHEHE" [img]http://img39.imageshack.us/img39/4528/twiface.png[/img]

She's a little socially retarded. Though she comes across as borderline stupid in that episode. Wasn't a massive fan of that.

[QUOTE=Daedulas;28763988]Whats up with all the rainbow Dash :<3: Pinkie?[/QUOTE] Griffon Brush Off + All the face rubbing + Pinkie Pie being a massive fan of Rainbow Dash (just look at sonic rainboom) all leads to the amount of shipping they get.

Finished reading Bittersweet. Saddest fanfic I've ever read. Just a quick question: Whatever happened to Apple Bloom?

[QUOTE=ProffesorAssHat;28764155]Finished reading Bittersweet. Saddest fanfic I've ever read. Just a quick question: Whatever happened to Apple Bloom?[/QUOTE] Nuke explains in the comments, he's gonna do a side story for it.

[QUOTE=knighty;28764164]Nuke explains in the comments, he's gonna do a side story for it.[/QUOTE] Can you post the comment?

[quote]To the anons who are asking where Applebloom went, she went to the same place Spike went to. Off-screen adventure time. Eventually I'll get around to writing the story for that side-plot, and it'll be more about growing up than coping, so technically you wouldn't have to read Bittersweet to read that story. I haven't really gotten the plot for it ironed out yet, and it's most likely going to be a much weaker story than Bittersweet, but hey, it's still something to look forward to.[/quote]

I'll regret this, but link to the fic "Cupcakes", please?

[QUOTE=Daedulas;28764216]it just doesn't feel right. Well Then again that is just me.[/QUOTE] Well I mean obviously it isn't literally canon, if that's what you thought I was suggesting. It's just a cute little mix up. I really like Applejack x Fluttershy too. Thankfully they can coexist.

[QUOTE=knighty;28763383]Have you read Bittersweet? It's really, really good.[/QUOTE] When I first read it, only two pages were out. Made me sad for the rest of the day. :frown:

[QUOTE=Murkat;28764288]When I first read it, only two pages were out. Made me sad for the rest of the day. :frown:[/QUOTE] Honestly, its just like any other sad move/story I've watched/read. Nothing much.

I just got to the fourth page and it isn't that bad. Pinkie's lines were sad, but the rest is soft.

One thing boggles my mind, why write such sad/creepy fanfics for a happy show like this?
