200. The 200th Chapter Wrap-Up...(until life's calmed down a little)

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

Hello, and welcome to the 200th Chapter! So ShadowLDrago suggested I use this chapter to write about my top 10 Villain Song parodies to celebrate this milestone. I guess I could do that.

I'm joined today by Time Turner, as co-host for the event. And before you ask, no, I didn't ponynap him.

"What ACTUALLY happened was that I was hacked off about not even getting ONE song about me in 200 chapters and so I decided to do something about it!"

And I explained to him that plenty of others like Colgate and Cloud Kicker didn't get one either, but he wouldn't listen...so he crashed into my attic in some blue box out of spite.

"It wasn't SPITE," Time Turner scoffed. "It was a calculated act of revenge. Spite implies that I was the one at fault first."

...Right.

But regardless, I will soldier on. Let's start the countdown, shall we?

And so, my top ten songs sung about a villain or by a villain ARE...

10. Chapter 46: Don't Like Me
I wrote this one after someone suggested Friend Like Me. It was actually meant to be about Princess Celestia at first, but if the other songs are anything to go by, you should know I don't touch similar situations with a 100 foot pole. And so after spending about 10 minutes thinking of a rhyme for friend, I said "forget this" and decided to write about somepony nopony seemed to like very much.

"Me?" Time Turner asked. "You haven't written about me, ever!"

No, of course n...I meant in their own universe.

"...Oh."

I think it fitted quite well, myself. I wrote another Aladdin song about Blueblood before and felt this was a fitting prequel.

9. Chapter 14: We Multiply
I didn't intend to do this one. I mean, how many rhymes for lullaby ARE there?

"I actually know several million civilizations whose languages have an EXACT rhyme!" Time Turner piped up.

Stop competing, I don't KNOW several million civilizations.

"Homework for you, then."

Shut up. But regardless, I'm proud of how this turned out. I felt the rhymes were pretty natural, and I was actually (for once) able to adhere to someone's submitted scenario. I think I've only ever done that like twice...?

"Because you only spend like half an hour at most on every song!" Time Turner pointed out.

I don't have all the time in the world, unlike you, smart-flank!

8. Chapter 64: Button
In keeping with tradition, I made this song about mocking somepony. I thought about simply leaving it until I could find somepony to sarcastically praise, but I didn't think it would be funny enough.

It was hard at first, since I couldn't think of anypony in canon who achieved the status of universal chew-toy.

"So you took somepony who only ever got expanded on in a fan-animation and ran with it."

It seemed acceptable; that's his most popular portrayal and so it was fine.

"Speaking of universal chew-toys," Time Turner mused, "I once came across a being who was literally chewing ON the universe itself. It was terrible. My best suit ruined."

How?

"Don't ever ask how, it spoils things. Like a magician's trick."

7. Chapter 72: Ol' Ms Harshwhinny
Not one of my faves myself, but it was very popular with commentors. It seems despite the awkward sounds it was well-liked and apparently funny, so at least there's that.

"I heard you were going to set it in one of the human worlds since she's a teacher at a school called MRS Harshwhinny," Time Turner remarked, scratching his chin with his hoof.

I did, yes, but I didn't know enough about that version and it seemed like too much work just to make it sound better. At least I used a title someone suggested when making the request so I can't be blamed.

6. Chapter 31: The Brony King In Media
I swear to Celestia the original song was ABOUT a villain. I don't think Sethisto or Equestria Daily in general are villains.

"Outwardly, perhaps. You didn't get featured."

Unfortunately not. This one brings back memories though; it was the first song I wrote that was intended to be sung by the reader and the reader alone. I had fun writing it; I do enjoy tributes. Like the Crackle one that would come many chapters later.

"You wrote a song about a one-off character but not about me."

Because you're not enough of a...dark horse.

...Time Turner just punched me.

5. Chapter 109: Yes, My Plot Is
"A TV show song?" Time Turner asked.

Not just a TV song; a TV song with a word so unrhyme-able that I was intending to just leave the stupid thing. BUT THEN, by a stroke of inspiration, I realized all I had to do was pull a Chapter 17 and turn the word into a phrase.

"Really?" Time Turner said incredulously. "You couldn't think of a subject other than somepony's butt?"

I still don't regret anything. I said it in the notes and it still holds true.

"Pervert."

Shut up. I enjoy this one because of the sense of achievement in fulfilling a really difficult request. And also because the one who requested it pitched so many ideas to me to get me this far.

"Did the repeat requests not bother you?" Time Turner asked.

Not really, a comment's a comment.

"You are so lonely."

Hello pot, I'm kettle. Have we met?

4. Chapter 165: (Monitor) Every Little Piece
I cheated slightly on this one. I inserted a word into the title just to get a completely different scenario to the original. Come to think of it, I may do it more often.

"You just DID. Last chapter. Literally," Time Turner pointed out.

Because it was appropriate? But anyway, I rank this where it is because I like to write about ponies doing really dumb things. Or say something off-hoof that everypony picks up on. And I thought it turned out okay.

"You could have made it about me, you know," Time Turned scowled. "I monitor what's going on too!"

No-one ever sees you, though.

"But you KNOW..."

Not in established canon! The best we have is your trading card! And it would be more about your other appearances in that other show anyway.

"Has that ever stopped you?"

When no-one writes about you as anything other than a guy from another planet? Yes! Seriously, make normal Time Turner a trend, folks!

3. Chapter 81: Mishap Off Sandy Shores
This was another "how am I gonna make a rhyming parody" request.

"You responded to it admirably though, admittedly," Time Turner remarked. "By next chapter, you had it."

Well, it was just lucky that 'sandy' correlates with an event I know. It was sort of like the Circle of Life parody in that I spent time looking for something that rhymed with 'kidnap' before realizing what the obvious solution was.

I liked this one, largely because it was canon, which I prefer to write about (or at least canon enough), but also because narration stories are some of my favorites to do.

Also, because pirates.

"Heck yeah pirates," Time Turner nodded.

2. Chapter 188: Whine, Whine, Whine
This one was a case of having the title, but not wanting to submit it. This was because four score and twenty chapters ago...

"It was one hundred and seventy chapters ago, actually," Time Turner sighed.

FOUR SCORE AND TWENTY CHAPTERS AGO, I wrote about a similar situation. I really only wrote this one out of sheer lack of other ideas at the time.

"Well, it was TECHNICALLY different," Time Turner remarked. "One about the events in the present, and one about the aftermath."

Yeah, that was sort of a consolation. But even so, I did have a ton of fun writing it, because imagining Rarity screech-singing would be funny, and also because the title made so. Much. Sense. It fitted so neatly I couldn't ignore it anymore and started typing.

And the number one villain song parody is...

1. Chapter 84: Lie On Lie
This, for me, was what took the top spot. I was told it was cleverly written, I was able to write about somepony I had never used before (who had technically been turned into a villain), and I had a lot of fun going nuts about writing several outlandish things to tell people.

"You stole a lot of them, didn't you?" Time Turner accused, pointing a hoof at me.

Because the guy who wrote them was a genius and I was stuck for anything funnier, okay?

"Can I point out that one of them was not actually a lie?" the brown Earth Pony asked.

What wasn't?

"I HAVE started a fire by rubbing the heads of two red-maned ponies together once."

WHAT.

"You would be surprised at the friction necessary to start the fire," Time Turner nodded. "It's how I managed to distract The Smooze long enough to escape."

I don't even...how did you do that?

"Oh, I just used my magic to speed my movements up," he replied off-hoofedly. "Don't try it yourself though, it hurts. For all parties involved."

I can imagine.

-

Well, that's that. All that remains is for me to thank my loyal readers...

"And promise to write a song about me someday!" Time Turner loudly reminded me.

...Possibly, and to wrap this up with one final song before I start to remove Time Turner's blue box from my roof..

Aaaaaaaaaaand as a special treat for the peoples who stuck with me and actually read and commented, I present...the song that started it all (and was requested so often by readers), cleaned up by me. (So I can't be credited for writing the ENTIRE parody) So here. You deserve it.

Angel Bunny's Hellfire

(Note: Sung to the tune of The Hunchback Of Notre Dame's "Hellfire")

Interpretive Dance by Angel Bunny

Princess Celestia, you know I am a cuddly guy
Of my fuzziness I'm justly proud
Princess Celestia, I'm huggable and you know why
I'm cuter than the tortoise and the owl!

Then tell me, Celestia, why she won't make my food nice,
Why my special salad's but a dream!
I feel it, I see it, the cherry and the orange slice,
The watercress and toppings of whipped cream!

Like FIRE! Hellfire! This fire in my skin!
This burning desire is turning me to sin!

It's not my fault
I'm not to blame
It is the pegasus who makes my food so lame!
It's not my fault
If in your plan
You feed me cauliflower, broccoli and flaaaaaaaan!

Protect me, Celestia, from eating all that junk as well,
Don't let that garbage sear my flesh and bone!
Destroy her, Celestia, and let her taste the fires of hell,
Unless she makes this salad like I've shown!

Hellfire, dark fire! Now pegasus, it's your turn!
It's down to the wire...make it or you will burn!

Celestia have mercy on her...
Celestia have mercy on me...
But I'll have my lunch or she
Will
BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUURN!


Author's Note

...Whew. Well that's that.

However, it isn't QUITE the end. I won't be updating this anymore, but I WILL continue to write for the upcoming sequel (yeah, it has to be, scrolling through two-hundred's a pain in the flank). I'll take it off the ground when life stops being evil and I have enough songs to maintain one every day as usual. I'll post the link when I have it up.

So again, thanks to all of you who let me know what you thought even if it was a thumbs down! And see you at the sequel!
