I have to agree with you

Well, I found another one. Hoo boy... by Watcher of the PPC on 2011-05-17 21:01:00 UTC Reply

You remember the movie Hostel by Quentin Tarentino? The fic I found is like that but with My Little Pony. Here's a short summary:

Cupcakes (NC-17 for extreme violence and character derailment)
Link: http://www.equestriadaily.com/2011/02/story-cupcakes.html
Fandom: My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic
Summary: Pinkie Pie horribly mutilates Rainbow Dash, eventually killing her. What.

This also has the dubious honor of being so disturbing, even the denizens of 4chan thought it was sickening. That should probably say a lot about it. I suggest sending someone from DAVD, and fast.

I can't believe that I found a fic that messed up this series in the most horrific way possible....

Even though it was horrifying, and it kind of ruined red velvet cupcakes for me forever. Some of the fan-made alternate endings are awesome, though. My favorite one is the one where it turns out the whole thing takes place on the set of a movie directed by a ponified version of Alfred Hitchcock.

This fic is famous enough to have a TV Tropes page, too: http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Fanfic/Cupcakes

What I find cool about this fic is that Pinkie Pie... doesn't really break character, really. You know, aside from the whole mutilating Rainbow Dash to death thing. She keeps that upbeat, bubbly personality the whole time, treats it like a party, and refers to Rainbow Dash as her friend. And that's what makes it scary. It basically does to Pinkie Pie what The Sacred and the Profane did to Aziraphale.

I hear that in certain civilizations this fanfic is worshipped by bronies as a vengeful pagan deity, and every full moon they sacrifice cupcakes made of ponyflesh to it.

While I've only skimmed the fic itself (it's not something I like) and read the TV Tropes page, I've come to the conclusion that the fic is more like an exploration of what would happen if Pinkie Pie just... completely lost touch with reality. I mean, in Party of One, she definitely lost it, and honestly, were it not a kids' show and she went even more overboard, it's not hard to see this happening.

It's indubitably very dark, and not everyone's cup of tea, but it's not a badfic. Just incredibly, and I mean INCREDIBLY, dark. Also, the fan alternate endings are great.

Every thing you said is terrible and I think I love you (In a non-creepy totally platonic way) for it.

Not the worst I've had the misfortune to 'read' (I skimmed it to dampen the squick), but still pretty damn disturbed.

I wonder whether there's actually any value in sporking it. Some things are so bad they can't be made bearable and/or enjoyable even with the PPC's wacky hijinks.

I can only assume that my standards regarding what I'm looking for are too low; maybe I should focus on fics that are just plain bad rather than the worst of the worst.

I wouldn't say that particularly, and this is of course, only my opinion (I don't pretend to be an expert at all, I'm new around here).

I think that it's more that a sporkable fic is bad (and can be truly, truly awful), but bad in a way that you can't stop reading, rather than in a way that would make most people go 'eww...' and just stop.
