@ oogaboo: You know, wouldn't be a bad thing if this show did. I mean, it has a REALLY great, positive message behind it, so what's the worst that could happen?
--------------------------
Anyways, I'm here to talk about a MLP fanfiction that I ran into. A fanfiction I ask NO ONE here reads, just so they can be spared the torture I was put through. In fact, I question it BEING a fanfiction over a hatefiction. Sure, it was made by a fan and all, but is, in fact, quite sadistic and twisted in nature to the point of showing signs of a hater making it, but holds so many good little references that only a fan of the show would know. So yeah, kind of a mixed debate there.
The name of the fanfiction I ask you all to avoid is... Cupcakes!
In the story, Pinkie Pie is turned into a sadistic psychopath who has Rainbow Dash at her mercy (Rainbow Dash is tied down, so she's not going anywhere.) of a "surgical experiment" that she is doing. Basically, she's seeing how long her friend lasts before giving in. I won't go into details of what she does to the Pegasus, but just know that it's really sickening in the end.
The worst part is that the author designs it as if Pinkie Pie was ALWAYS like this, which I will only comment as "No she wasn't!".
I'm not going to go into details of how messed up the author made Pinkie Pie, but it's obvious that they don't quite know everything about the character at hand.
Heck, the fanfiction even tries to justify itself with putting in the fact that Episode 25, where she went a little crazy because her friends tried to hide a surprise party that was for her birthday from her, was the cause of it all. Now, while I will admit she did go a little crazy in Episode 25, I will also note she was cured of her problem when her friends told her the truth of what was going on. So basically, the fanfiction tries to pull a complete 180 on the whole thing.
I am appalled by this, and if this guy is the fan he claims to be, than I am appalled by that as well.
The worst part is that it gets great praise from quite a few fans, and I am appalled by that also. A fan is meant to honor what they love, not mock it. This fanfiction is clearly doing that. It is not meant to be praised.
I ask you all stay away from this one. You might end up saving your sanity in the end, because mine is on the brink of being crushed.
Now, if you all don't mind, I need to find a cure for all this before I lose it.
See ya later!
