Its not the best thing ever, but it works. Short, sweet and not unimaginative.
ReplyDeleteRead it, enjoyed it.
I'd like to begin by saying that this was a very good story, and I liked the subtle pop culture trio created with the names given to Pinkie's siblings. The story very neatly ties in to the world of MLP:FiM, and needless to say, it might actually work nicely as a side-story, similar to the Cutie Mark Crusaders' episodes. Though the concept of Pinkie's writing being identical to how she speaks - drifting in-between thoughts - seems fairly off to me, I have no say in how the story was written, and I acknowledge that I subsequently have no grounds for complaints.
ReplyDeleteAll in all, a very good explanation of what Pinkie Pie's siblings and parents did when she left the farm.
An interesting sort of contemplative piece. Has kind of a melancholy undertone to it, but overall quite uplifting. Even if I'm still more convinced Octavia is a member of the Pie family.
ReplyDeleteAlso, completely unrelated note, but does anybody know if we're going to celebrate at 11 million? I get the sinking feeling we might have to start waiting for every 5 million views.
This was a really sweet story and a pleasure to work on. Reading it really did bring a smile to my face. :3
ReplyDeleteI also like the Inkie, Blinkie, Pinkie, Sue and Clyde thing the fandom's picked up. XD That's awesome.
Anyway, great work, Sage! :3 Look forward to more!
That was nice. I know "nice" sounds like a stock word for somebody who's struggling to say something positive about a mediocre story, but I really did enjoy it. It wasn't exciting or romantic or sugary; it was just... nice. And I feel all the better for having read it.
ReplyDeleted'awwwww, short and sweet, very nice story :D
ReplyDeleteI'm kinda upset that this has less comments... Anyways great story! If it was a bit short, but you were working with people we've only heard about for a few seconds

ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed this. Great extrapolation of some characters we didn't see much of. Loved Pinkie's letter to them! Thanks for sharing.

ReplyDeleteThis is actually an older story that I wrote before Octavia made her appearance, so it kinda clashes a bit with fanon =). I just decided to release it recently.
My aim was not to draw attention to the specific life paths the sisters took, but rather the fact that they chose to take them; hopefully I managed. Whether they found a passion for archaeology, classical music, dance, or photography wasn't as relevant as they idea that they'd embrace that passion.
So I encourage anyone reading to take my presumptions about the Pies as nothing more than a means to parrot a common, but valuable message: always dare to dream, and never feel that you're too old to do so =).
That was a really sweet story. I kinda hope we see more of Pinkie's family in the next season.
