"Dear princess Celestia, have you ever wanted to kill somepony?" WELL THAT ESCALATED QUICKLY!?
Streaks
Yeah...
What a way to start a story
I mean this isnt too far fetched from the Real Twilight. Shes always on edge and constantly stressed out in the show. She rarely gets time to herself when thiers not a world ending threat thiers her stressing over being arranged and in order. Shes like a perfectionest in a way. Dont forget she kinda went insane with the CMC's in one episode. Whos to say thier wont be a day when she just snaps and cant take this stress anymore?
Looks like she’s going insane on us 😰
@@annemarieroberts1449 I know and its scary too :C Twilights one of my top 10 favorite Ponies too.
I can just see Princess Celestia shaking her head at the first few letters...and shaking her head turns into shaking entirely...shaking entirely turns into fear...fear turning into panic...panic turns to nightmares...and nightmares into a horrible reality.
A reality in witch her 'faithful student' is now a paranoid psychopathic monster, who kills for 'science'. And now the Princess must end her student's torment, once and for all. You can only imagine how the Celestia feels on the receiving end of this.

Poor Celestia
*which
@@katelynthewhitewerewolf6376 They feel relaxed...and they make me relaxed as well if i look at them
Yeah but hear me out on this...what if Twilight never discovered them after the murder[s]
The wild thing is, im sure real life had this play out. At least one time.
A mental illness all written out. Clear as day, but nobody ever saw it until it was over.
Twilight Sparkle's actions put a new meaning in the term "Curiosity killed the cat."
Damn
Oh wow...... :)
peabody66 oh god damnit
in this case it's "Curiousity killed the Pony."
But satisfaction brought it back
The worst part of this is that there are people out there who killed the first time from curiosity or kill for the exhilaration. Twilight already had her answer.
I can never get enough of Kagome's Twilight voice. She doesn't sound like Tara, but it doesn't seem like she's trying to sound like Tara, and I love that.
It sounds like tara
I think you added a word there
I dont think shes trying to sound like Tara. She seems to be doing her own version of Twilight.
This is proof that Twilight is TWISTED. I understand she wants to know what it's like to kill, but there are less extreme methods, like TALK TO A RECENT KILLER.
XD so true but she might wanna c know 1st hand u like... you p wanna know what pain is for yourself... or killing yourself. c.. or a things k like e that s
night pony that is true, but apparently twilight was hung at the end, which I do think was a little extreme. Even though she is my least favorite character, she didn't deserve that because she only did it out of curiosity.
Sarah Schuster true but you killed a living pony bc of curiosity.... and i dont see why it toke so long for her to do something about it when she could have stopped her from the start... i would not even do that but i do understand .... also yes the punishment was extreme but she did get what was coming bc she was going to kill more pones... the next one could have been me or you
also one more thing SHE WAS GOING TO KILL FUTTERSHY FOR CRYING OUT LOUD MY FAVORITE CHARACTER
The story stated that it had been decades sence a pony killed another- there is mo recent murderer for her to talk to-
Thought this would be an "edgy serial killer with no remorse or psychological side effects" story. Was positively surprised. Good reading too.
"Sincerely your faithful student twilight sparkle", never has this been more ironic.
Great.... Twilights a murderer, Pinkie Pies insane, Rainbow Dash is a rocket to insanity, Apple jack will bake you into pie like pinkie, Fluttershy is creepy and demented, and rarity wants to makes dresses.... with your flesh. Man if I could get all these animated (which might be a good side project when um into animation with my art) I think it would be fascinating....
and the crusaders are there assistants and spike moved to back to canterlot
SSJ Mikey Pinkie pie is the only lucky one since she would just watch and eat popcorn while all hell breaks lose UAU;
+Clyburn Wubz (The Unboxing Artist X3) I'm pretty sure spike is the only lucky one here since he hasn't turned insane
SSJ Mikey True but being with twilight and having his mother figure lose her mind probably would cause some trama but he still gets away scott free. :)
+Clyburn Wubz (The Unboxing Artist X3) heh yeah but being safe is better then being trap with twilight I could imagine what spike was said when he left it'll probably be between the lines of oh god yes or sweet celestial thank you 😃
(Twilight) “What goes through a ponies mind that makes them want to kill innocent ponies? Hmm...”
“...LETS FIND OUT!🤪”
Twilight: Okay. So, the good news is that I finally discovered what it's like to to take a pony's life! A little disappointing if I'm honest. The bad news is I'm gonna get arrested and then executed.
Why didn't Luna witness these dreams
Cara Stone that is a reasonable question
i was gonna ask to
Cara Stone probably it was made before we knew that luna could go in dreams
"Hello, everypony. Did I miss anything?"
wow... i never thought of that...
my little grimdark, creepiness is magic
Twilight's logic in short:
"I'm going to report all of the details about my fantasies and actual murder, so the Royalities can prosecute me for murdering, having hard evidence against me."
*After a half of the fic* : "Well, now I'm gonna stop that".
*Later* : "I'm gonna write letters anyway.".
Pure genius. XD
this was pritty good thank god you avoided the whole "I killed all my friends" thing
seems like since "cupcakes" every grimdark that involves the mane 6 has them turning on eachother,this had only snipits of that and was a natural conclusion for Twilight's slow decent into madness,nicely done
Shouldn't Princess Celestia have done something when this all started
I don't think she sent them. She said she wouldn't be in the first letter.
ya at 0:12 she said she wouldn't
she only sent them after the entire thing.
WOW.....this got dark extremely quick lol well Twilight always showed signs of psychotic tendencies in the actual show lol
My entire thought process during this keeps switching from “damn twilight” to “poor twilight”
"dear princess celestia, have you ever wondered what it's like to kill another pony?"
kek, im pretty sure celestia KNOWS what its like to kill another pony.
also you could get plastered taking a shot for everytime twilight says "well". i love this fic and its narration, but once i noticed it, hooboy.
Dear princess celstia,
I will stop giving you incriminating evidence.....
Next week
Your fathful student,
Twilight sparkle
she never sent the letters
puppyhowler Twilight was evicted, Celestia is reading the letters in the end and it mentioned she couldn't get the image of Twilight being executed from her head.
When the letters were found they would have been a huge amount of evidence even if she hadn't exposed her self. And for some reason she kept the letters instead of burning them. So she knew that if she committed the crime she would eventually commit and kept the letters to her self it would ether be incriminating evidence and a good record of what not to become a psychopath or the ramblings of a mad pony. So she knew what the letters would do and kept writing them on purpose so she could probably keep them to herself. So in the end she knew it could be the end of her if she kept writing and she did it anyway. So she knew that she was digging her own grave and she eventually did. The way my comment comes into play was that I was saying what course of action she should have taken and I was representing that by using Twilight to act as if was writing it herself. And if you made it this there is cookies and punch by the door.
The Doctor ha
I just imagine her eye becoming more and more like it is in the picture with each letter

Dont you mean worse and worse

"What I read... it disturbed me... as well as fascinated me." Me too Twi, that's why I am here
did I just listen to emogak kill scribbler? I honestly don't know how I feel about this... thanks emogak for keeping me awake for the rest of the week
Twilight:Disturb me...
Me:Twilight...You disturb me :\
12:18
Damn it Twilight why do you still sound so nerdy.
This could a actually happen in this world. Someone gets excited by death and how it works. This is why this scares me.
Welp time to rejecc humanity

26:21-26:44
Okay, Twilight, this is really scaring me now. I wasn't really scared until this came up.
great voice acting!
About 70% sure Scribbler is a changeling. Mostly from the voices (nopony does that many so well). That and she is so well loved. Great story by the way, is it wrong that I enjoyed this as much as I did O:-)
Downfall...this reminds me of something. FEGELEIN!!!(search it on TH-cam or untergang)
Wow, this has a similar Gothic horror feel to Poe's "The Telltale Heart" Good work, author! And good work, reader, you gave Twilight the right almost bland, almost regretful tone that was just right for the reading. Thanks!
Holy shit this was intense...I have to wonder if the writer of this fic has had similar thoughts and urges. It just seemed to real to be entirely made up. Still though, this was beautifully done. Spot on voice acting and chilling narration. 10 out of 10!
That’s kinda mean
Its kind of scary how well this was done. I'm literally sitting in my room trying not to make any noise as to what I am listening too 😯 it may have been a shocking reading, but the acting and sound effects were amazing. All I can say is wow
This is the first time I will ever put a dramatic reading into my favourites. You are amazing and I don't know if you already do more of this, but I would love to hear more of this!
God, your voice as twilight gives me chills!! The emotion in your voice is so haunting! And the way Scribbler sounded in the recording!!!
It is hard to listen to the "tape" of subject no. 1's death. It feels sickening, and those screams…
I think most of us have wondered, "What is it like to kill another living thing?" Most of us don't do it, I hope, simply because the actually thought is intriguing but when we actually start thinking about possibly doing it we feel sickened by the thought. Some don't commit the act under threat of incarceration.
Personally I feel like crap for lying to a friend or having a spider killed because of my phobia. If I were to kill another person, I don't think I'd be able to continue on with anything after the fact.
I was honestly flinching and shuddering through this reading. And I'm not even done yet.
I must say fantastic; truly one of the best readings ever. The story itself is only part of the actual emotion this fic represents, you filled the rest with an exceptionally stellar performance. You perfectly captured all that she was feeling; despair, fear & helplessness, that a killer in the shoes (or, better, hooves) of Twilight would feel if they were truly scared of themselves. I've been listening to other readings for several different grimdark/gore pony fics but by far you defiantly have done the best.
Please give yourself a pat on the back, I hope you actually become a voice actor (as your channel states), I'm sure you will do a fantastic job.
The monsters we hear about, don't live on the outside... They reside inside of us.
Twillights voice is VERY good!
Wow, I haven't felt disturbed like that in a REALLY long time. The screams. Oh gawd. Wow. Just. Wow. Bravo. I'm officially unnerved.
well, brony writer knows the ins and outs of a serial killer, they are mostly of high intelligence, first they experiment, for a while they are caught in conflict with their emotions until they feel the confidence to kill again and then we all know what happens from there.
please for the love of celestia do not turn up your volume when shes screaming, your ears shall break.
Bundt head Lmao
Fortunately for me I saw it coming and turned it down ahead of time.
WadewGAME true................................ I learned that the hard way 😐😐😐😐😐😐😐 and twilight say hi to doctor hooves for me 😏😏😴😏
Too late
That poor mare, I'm glad I turned down my volume ahead of time. And Twilight freaking out about the blood.
This is the best fanfic i ever listened. You put so much emotions in this, that I it just feel like Twilight was reading this.
Going on a spree of relistening to MLP fics. This one always left an impression on me.
Wish I found this channel earlier. Really solid. Really convincing VA.
Celestia: my dear sister what is wrong
Luna: your student is FUCKED, I AINT GOING IN THAT DREAM WORLD AGAIN FUCK THAT SHIT
Omg my hands are shaking why!! 😖😰Anyways great voice on twilight
God dammit it's 4:09!! "Crap"
Ok, it's four in the morning and I need to go watch some official MLP so I can sleep.
First time?
@@unnamed1613 what do you mean?
Thiis fic reminds me of Edgar allen Poe's Tell Tale Heart for some reason.
Ooh! I've read the telltale heart.
I guess their both about someone wanting to kill someone, though the tell tale heart's character was a little more specific about who the mc wanted to kill.
TH-cam, All I want to do is watch a video, stop making me update. I remember that Tell Tale Heart as well in my english class we read it
Yes. It is
holy shit you're right
The monsters we all can be
Including Tinky Winky Tank (Slendytubbies)
Well.... It was bound to happen eventually..
I was listening to this very early in the morning before going to bed I hope I don't develop a habit desire to kill my friends lol wow ms.emogak you bring so much emotions into Twiley it's beautiful loved it
bruh
best music ever to choose at the start, it really set the tone for this fanfic!
Madness has made twilight fall into the darkness and sins
...perfect
how come princess luna hasn't seen or got some sort of warning about twilight's dreams at the beginning.
I believe this fic was made before it was revealed that Luna could traverse dreams.
@Joanna Blue i don't think they found them until after she was arrested
her downfall was knowledge
The worse version of Midnight Sparkle.
LPS Jewel shhhhh
Jesus! Poor Twilight! Makes u wonder how long shes had these insane thoughts in her head? Also Scribblers really good at screaming in pain and her screams legit made me feel disturbed too!
Too bad Twilight never took into account the sheer guilt that would slowly consume her after the deed had been done.
This is probably the best grimdark fanfic I've ever listened to, congrats to bronywriter, like, seriously
I would have said to Twilight, "Well, if you're going to kill me could you be a lamb and kill me with kindness?"
This is definitely one of my favorites.
No i am not saying why.
Awesome! We passed by this story a few times on the livestream but narrating in character is quite taxing. You did an excellent job!
honestly... I didn't like this. Not because it was a bad reading, but because it was too WELL read. the recording part alone kept me up until 4 in the fucking morning, I was so disturbed! Scribbler scares me with how painfully real those screams sounded...
You should do more of these!
around 17:30 i took off my headphones yelling "hell to the no" while in extreme terror
First guess, minute 27, she figured out why ponies kill. She's going insane.
Very nicely done. ^-^
*listens to it again*
Anyone found it ironic how Pinkie Pie is the first to leave Twilight considering she is the first mare Twilight meets in Ponyville?
i listened to this so many times u have no idea! i love this so much ur voice is amazing and this story is just ah yes u know XD i am in love with ur twi voice its so perfect !
The ending is so very saddening and poor Twilight is now a murderer?!?!?!?!
Why does this feel like the beginnings of Researcher Twilight?
This would be a good beginning for Researcher Twilight.
This is brilliant!

"Insert okay face"
*responds to comment from 5 years ago
Awesome! I loved it! Best reading of one of my stories yet.
This is one of the best readings I have heard... You just got a subscriber! :D
it's like intrusive thoughts with someone who didn't know that was a thing and was just like "well OBVIOUSLY the only way to stop thinking about it to just do it!" which is like..alright...
for your first fanfic reading you did an awesome job
my all time favorite!!!! GREAT JOB you earned a subscribe
this reading made me sick to my stomach
+Emma Backer what happened to all time favorite...?
The saddest part is at the end I asked my self what it would feel like to kill someone.
Was this based on "The Experiments of Twilight Sparkle"?
Twilight: 0:06
Celestia: “spit out of her drank” WHAT!?
that was really awesome in the.voice reading that made my feel what the F and the FEELS also think what luna was thinking about as she is the nightime princess
Twilight you need to play any video game.
Sylvia The Sylveon lol ikr?
Kiernan Games would suggest minecraft. it a wonderful open word game.
Sylvia The Sylveon or gmod she can kill without havin consistences
Kiernan's Game's Forget that go with skyrim, the dark brotherhood would suit her well.
Shitposter 4 Life Or fallout four...
T: "Have you ever wondered what it's like to kill another person?"
C: "Who the f*ck starts a conversation like that I just sat down."
Is this some kind of sick joke?
Twilight: do you see me f****** laughing my n**** I ain't f****** laughing!
When it comes down to it I believe there is actually a theory that someone studies psychopaths they can actually Become one themselves
Twilight's out here like: "therapy? I don't know her."
This is another one of my favorite grimdark fanfics and I have a lot XD but this is definitely in my top 10
I feel like this needs part 2.
Luna must be lacking real hard cause there’s no possible way in hecc that she didn’t see twilights nightmares
The sad part is I think she did. Celestia would have never believed it.
SHE WAS GONNA KILL DERPY
-*pulls out ban hammer*
"It's for science!" It's the same line I use when I try to pick up a lady. Never works though... :P
+Ieatpaste23 Smart ladies...
+Sleepy Starspider Yeah, well think of the damage they are doing to the scientific community though!
Bruh I'm very Concerned for you :/
@@coldhaixx1905 Ikr, what a moron :(
that was.......wow........that was real deep......great voice acting by the way
im listening to this. and im showing my bestie! why? cause this is my favorite
First of all, I saw a reference
to Experiments of Twilight Sparkle.
Second, now I get the catchphrase.
"Curiosity killed the cat."
Third, dare I ask of the ending?
I shouldn't ask, really, I know not to.
But I can't take not doing it.
Was Twilight hung?
Or maybe banished?
I don't want to think of Twily being hung.
Lastly, I actually liked this story.
Is something wrong with me?
I love your voice acting of twilight sparkle @Emogak 😁
Amazingly good reading.
Anyone else than me that's ALMOST as curious as twilight about how it feels to kill someone? Like seriously just think about it for a second. No-one likes to talk about it and almost everyone finds it realy disturbing that someone would even consider it, and no-one who has actouly done it has writen it down so people would atleast know what it could feel like so their curiousity wouldn't turn into NEED of killing someone just to know what it feels like. Or maybe it's just me who has been on the internet for too long and had gotten weird and half insane for the lack of sleep and the stress i'm experiencing at the moment :l
this reminds me of somene I used to know
Pinkie pie just walks off after seeing a dead body like
"Yup. Same *shit* as always."
Exactly
Oh G!! Oh G!! Wow....I'm actually lost for words at this one. I mean....AWESOME!!!!
Thnxs for the entertainment and keep up the great work
