Back when Anonfilly was alive we used to have spooktober prompts for that thread. Now, I get that we don't really have the same number of writefags as we used to, also get that you Americans are probably busy with the Election and stuff, and I also get that November writing month is here already and Halloween is already over. I get that. However, I felt that it would be sad to not honor this tradition in some way. Sadly, I feel like my ideas usually end up putting more pressure on people to write than they actually help facilitate anything. It's also, not a good look, when I, myself, don't participate in my own events, or whatever. I try to but it is what it is.
So, I didn't know what to do for this occasion. Should I make a thread for November writing month? I guess, but I don't think I'll participate myself since I know there's no way I actually stick with a story for that long, so if someone else wants to make it, or want me to make it, cause I can do it for anyone, then they can go ahead in doing so or tell me. But again, I'm not really providing anything like, well that requires effort. Then I guess, there's no rule stuff has to have effort but I find that usually, an excerpt well-written, is better than a whole book not that. Then, again idk.
But then as I searched for job adds wherever they might be found, I found myself on e621.net in the mlp section and saw this comic through the cracks between my fingers.
I read it. I liked it, a lot. It's kinda horror so... I thought I just re-upload the whole thing here so we could all read along or share or something and called it a bit of Halloweeny writing event.
Obviously, I take no credit for it. This guy called Sinful Pie, did everything. But I doubt there would be a problem since its up publicly on the web and I'm just spreading his comic around circles that would appreciate it.
So some background: This is a comic that tells us an AU version of events from the classic mlp fanfic Cupcakes. I have thought about how I should ask GG to review the rest of the big mlp classics since he reviewed "Past Sins". In my view the big classics are: Past Sins, Cupcakes, Rainbow Factory, and My Little Dashie.
They went kinda viral at their time but they are what they are. For example this story, Cupcakes, can be summed up like this Pinkie invites RD over and then Prinkie gruesomely murder her and also makes cupcakes out of her parts. Yeah, so for those unfamiliar, GG, that's it.
This is an alternative story or more like what if... Not gonna spoil.
So without further ado. Prepare to be spooked.

So, so far, there is no diversion from the original form what I remember.
Also, I'm gonna try to put some spoilers on the gore and blood, cause I feel like that's what that spoiler function is for.
>>378005You know what my logic in the OP doesn't follow. Well, I guess, I just really wanted to show you guys this cool comic that I got infatuated with. Do tell me if this impulse and idea was stupid and I won't redo it in the future. Maybe, uploading a comic isn't what threads are for and I'm just a newfag in spirit in not in body.

>>378006Last frame of twi is a nice action frame.
>>378007 <-- 40-44
I really like his presentation. The colors and framing and stuff.
45-49
>>378008AJ is totally, as you Americans would say, badass in this fic. A real hero!
The second chapter is out and I kinda like it better, cause well it and this chapters end is the AU part of this comic. In the original story, RD just dies but here Twi and AJ, as you saw, stops Ponk.
Gonna add the rest after some dinner. All this talk about cupcakes got me all hungry.
Man, I love this guy's art.
>>378009That was disturbingly magnificent. This whole time, I thought Cupcakes referred to the animation, which is bad enough. This is beautifully illustrated, and its my own brain that does the rest. Golf clap. Thank you Sven
>>378033>Thank you SvenNp, glad to hear it. Yeah, I really like it. Second chapter is better, imo.
Makes me think. Maybe we could have that, a comic reading thread. Maybe I'll make that cuz there are some more comics that I really like and could use some love.
>and its my own brain that does the rest. Interesting. I feel like your touching on something that I can relate to but I can't put my finger on. Could you provide an example? Though, you don't have to. Feel free to chill and lurk at your leisure.
>>378067>Could you provide an example?With pleasure.
The video is great. But the song doesnt match the vibe. It fits, in a combined shitpost sense, but its a screamy rocker with a horrible cartoon depiction.
The comic however, theres authentic dialogue. We know their characters, their voices, they would say this.
Even Pinkie, in a sense Im a little disturbed by.
So when I read it, I hear it. Its something I'll never forget.
The cartoon depiction quality isnt horrible, its thats whats depicted that is horrible
"Yo, Queen Celly, it's yo boy, Spike.
"You know Rainbow Dash, right? You know how she usually flies around and stuff with her wings... Uhh...
"Everything is fine and all and I get that you might be busy but do you know any doctors that have experienced in reattaching wings? Just askin'. No reason. But feel free to send them our way. RD might find them useful.
"Though I'm sure wings grow back on their, probably. Again, no need worried. Everything is fine.
"Your loyal dragon, Spike.
"Ps. You may wanna send a doctor that knows how to sew up a big cut in the gut while you're at it."
>>378071The two first pages with AJ are up there with my favs in this comic. I guess, I think the idea of hospital personal reacting to victim of straight up torture is interesting on some level.
>>378073The interaction between Luna and Twilight here is my favorite part of the entire comic.
>>378076I love the escalator joke.^^
>>378077Also, this where I gotten the images from:
https://e621.net/pools/44148 I think it's a furry porn site or something, I just watch the mlp "section" so I don't really know.
Anyway, that is it. Chapter three hasn't come out yet.
>>378069>The comic however, theres authentic dialogue. We know their characters, their voices, they would say this.Yeah, I agree. Now when you say it, I was impressed by the dialogue in this comic.
>>378076Also, Ben 10.
>>378074Yeah. Best princess, proving why shes best princess
>>378076>pic 3Me too flutterbutter. Me too
>>378078Yes, its a furry porn site masquerading as "lol, tots not a furry porn site uwu"
Sorry for the lack of post consolidation, but that was a marathon. I thought I knew, but I learned today.
>>378074>The interaction between Luna and Twilight here is my favorite part of the entire comicWith cause, not to dimish others. Twilight literally breaks right here. She loses reality and enters a dreamstate and ONLY Luna keeps her from being sucked off into an endless astral abyss of consciousness and madness
>>378086>She loses reality and enters a dreamstate and ONLY Luna keeps her from being sucked off into an endless astral abyss of consciousness and madnessYeah, what you said. And... That would be bad.
;^PYeah, it's really cool. I really like Luna's subtle facial expressions.
>>378075"Your friends await you, Twilight Sparkle,"
How can a singular mare be so based as to say such a thing at such a time
Sorry, its new to me and omfg
>>378076Fug. Flutters noticed something.
>>378087Part wants to read the story from the position of a ponyfag. This is one of the most horrible things Ive ever read, why ever* would someone write this?
Part wants to read this as a Saw/horror fanatic, nuff said
Tl;dr u got me good this time
