Sci-Fi is the only tag? Odd, usually accompanied by Crossover or at the very least Dark. Sounds interesting, the alternate universe fics that I've read have been good, I'' give it a read.

ReplyDeleteDumb keyboard!
As said in the description though, cliche as old as time :P It does make for some good stories though.
who are you?
ReplyDeleteI feel bad for any author going up today, with THAT episode in fresh memory? Damn. I would NOT want to follow it.
ReplyDeleteI'd have preferred a longer first chapter, but it did its job well enough. It'll be interesting to see where this goes from here.
ReplyDeleteWhy are the Rainbow Dash breaks her wings fic banned now?
ReplyDelete@Cody
ReplyDeleteBecause the episode pretty much implied wings aren't fragile when rainbow was demolishing the barn.
Until another episode comes up that proves otherwise that is.
@Cody They're not, I think. Did you see the newest episode? Rainbow goes straight through AJ's farm multiple times, then she does a sonic rainboom into the ground and she's just fine. I already mentioned it in the second or first page of comments on the new episode page.

ReplyDeleteIt may say that they're banned, bu that's likely just the blog ponies being humorous, I don't think they would ban a certain kind of fic just because of show inaccuracy, especially because all fan fics are what they are, fictional, as in, they don't affect the show in any way, nor must they adhere to the show's story. Lets see, if they were banned and we applied the same reasoning to the rest of the fics then mare + mare shipping, GrimDark, War, Sci-Fi, and Crossover would all be banned.

ReplyDeleteI'm not sure it was a sonic rainboom...more like a sonic rainbomb.
Also, I'd have to rewatch the episode, but I'd imagine that you could easily reconcile it a broken-wing fic by claiming that RD retracted her wings when she hit the barn.
Time to re-rail the thread here guys. It wasn't a bad first chapter. Would have liked longer. And the tag is certainly odd. And it really couldn't have come at a worse time, everypony still high off that first new pony fix in two weeks. But I like it, one complaint.
ReplyDeleteTwilight identified the gun AJ had as "more destructive" or something to that effect. How did she know they were weapons at first? How did she know AJ's was more dangerous?
Ooooh, lol. It didn't imply that it was a joke and I hadn't watched the episode yet. I had work this morning -.-
ReplyDelete@Cody
ReplyDeleteBecause they were tasteless.
oh jesus, atomic rainboom o.o I like it :3, also they changed the way the story morals are supposed to go through, so does that mean the direction of the show itself may change? like be more adventurous as Lauren originally wanted when starting MLP FiM?
ReplyDeleteIf u want to comment on the episode ponies go to that post, otherwise talk about the story.
ReplyDeleteNow as for the story: seems interesting, ill have to read it. And a dozen other fics that ive been putting off.
