Pinkie Pie's Cutiemark Story: Carnations and Forget-Me-Nots

by Sethisto

Someone has Videofied the Pinkie Pie cutie mark story comic from a while back. I'd give it a sad tag, but then it would ruin my PAINSTAKINGLY SORTED ARCHIVE.

Anyway, check it out after the break!

I cried hard at this. The comic itself made me cry. And this did it even more. It's so very sad. But I'm glad she could help her sister fight for a little longer and be happier in the little time she had left. And that she could help other ponies as well. Very touching. So typing this as I cry too. lol

Oh, come on. I was just going to sleep. This was just so sweet, and so sad at the same time. This is the toughest thing anyone can ever go through. Watching someone you love slowly slip away. I should know, unfortunately. But it reminds me to keep on living for both of us. After all, they don't die until we forget them. Gah, confound these ponies. They drive me to philosophical rants.

@Bombedrumbum Oops somehow managed to reply to myself *Derp*

Anywho..I didn't cry or tear up. Maybe because I already knew the story from the comic.. so I was already knew what was coming?

or could be from my previous comment about the narration in the video telling the story for you instead of just reading the comic which makes you think about what is happening.

That's just my perspective/thought on it anyway. But then again, I really don't feel like crying tonight anyways. lol But that comic about Spike growing up and leaving Twilight, or the Luna "When somebody loves you" video.... usually gets to me every damn time.

*sniffles and wipes her eyes with a tissue and then blows her nose* First time I saw the comic, I cried, because it fit Pinkie so much more then the story she told the CMC. Pinkie isn't my favorite pony, but I think she would do all she can to make somepony happy, even if they are sick, happiness can probably make someone live just that little bit longer and bring so much joy to their life.

But this video, this did it for me. I tried to read along with the words, but the music and the meaning behind them almost made me sob. Bravo, I am going to go watch again so I can cry again!

I always thought the strong part of the comic was it's ambiguit. You had to pick the details of it together, to create your own version. The text displayed in this video was indeed a possible way to interpret the stoty,but it was not my way, so it was more distracting for me. Still the quality is good, and I can see why it touched so many of us^^

Teared up but couldn't cry, the casing that has formed around my heart over the years since my grandmother passed away is still intact but ever since I found Friendship is Magic and you guys, the fans, it's been slowly cracking more and more.
My life's easy and hard, easy as in I do very little, hard in I want to do things but either don't dare or can't. One of the reasons behind that is that I have no friends and my social skills are as good as buried.

I am at school right now, and therefore cannot view the video at the current time. However, this is probably for the best, because I already know that it will make me cry, and the last thing I need right now is to explain to my friends that a My Little Pony fan comic made me start tearing up.

I'll watch it later.

Probably the closest I came to crying from a pony-related thing. However, I can't see this as the real Pinkie Pie, but rather some alternate-universe Pinkie, just because of the fan-added element of the new sister and the fact that she got her cutie mark much later than she did in the show.

My grandfather was diagnosed with cancer once. The doctor gave him 6 months to live. That was 9 years ago. And he fights tooth and nail every day for that next day. I think I'll give him a call and see how he's doing.

Also, yes. I did shed manly tears..... a lot of them.
