[MLP Fanfic Reading] "The Canopy" (grimdark/horror) {Month of Macabre 2020}

[@Magpiepony]

Gawd, Starlight, why you gotta leave me like that?!

[@thelifeoncloud9]

I now dub Starlight Glimmer the princess of Yeet and Skeet

[@Flashgen75]

It's all good, she got karmic justice for that >:)

[@bleakautomaton4808]

Remember how she got psycho in the show, once blasting Discord with a laser of rage magic? She coulda looked into blasting the woods. But she also wasn't so sweet to Trixie in the show either so...

[@autumbreeze1129]

And to think, all of that could've been avoided had Starlight simply waited two days

[@wendigostudiosLNandMlp66]

I know right?! So impatient, smh 🤦‍♀️

When you are in a horror movie/story you make bad decisions.

I think the monster took trixie when she climbed to the top of the trees, as for starlight maybe the forest terned her desire to be free ,into her own downfall

I return to this reading at least once a year! It's such a good audio drama, I just WISH the ending was actually satisfying.

I've said it before and I'll say it again- *there are existences worse than death*

You've been killing Month of Macabre 2020. *pun intended* This story was an amazing start to my Monday. Thank you!💖

[@Flashgen75]

What a treat to see! Was wondering what those KZbin referrals were and here we are! I'll give it a listen soon! EDIT: Just finished, and this was phenomenal work!

[@thelifeoncloud9]

Thank you so very much!! It’s an honor to have the author of a fic I adapt like a reading so much!! n.n I’m happy you enjoyed it! This was arguably my longest fic reading to date but it was so worth adapting an amazingly spoopy and compelling story!!

[@Flashgen75]

@@thelifeoncloud9 I tossed up a blog post tagging the story on fimfic to promote the reading, and have it listed in the description of the story as well. Hope it gets some more ears.

[@OmegaFox09]

So at the end the forest got Starlight?

[@indigoxalis]

This was so well-read! The story was really interesting, although I was confused by the ending. I loved the sound effects you used throughout it though! Amazing work!

[@TheCommenterDragon]

I really enjoyed this reading Cloud9, the story was certainly creepy yet interesting!!!

[@AJponyAPschannel]

Sorry you had all the delays 😓 That just makes the reward all the more pay offing! 🤩

[@CaptainYoshiHD]

Nice! Another fanfic reading with a story in my favorites folder! This time it’s Cloud9! I guess I’m lucky.

[@bleakautomaton4808]

Darn ponies wandering into Aokigahara!

[@T_E_G]

This was an amazingly chilling story!

[@calamitykate1982]

Wow awesome reading nice job on it (including the VAs) ❤️💜

[@kittyandbearsale]

Im confused. Did she burn her and Trixie? Was the forest messing with her?

[@0_dearghealach_083]

I think the forest made Starlight hallucinate that she was escaping- I.e. running into the sunlight, but was just running into the fire. I think the forest took Trixie and replaced her with some sort of changeling, but unsure when. Either when she climbed to the canopy, or when Starlight woke from sleep and saw “Trixie” staring into the dark. I don’t imagine it’s a normal forest, but a dark, twisted one.

[@jessicapedley4082]

I really loved this reading Cloud and any plans for Halloween

[@thelifeoncloud9]

I’ve got an extra special video coming out for Halloween, stay tuned! 😈

Halloween only week away, cloud9.

[@quintonjones2699]

That was an awesome read Cloud9 well done

[@empressireneabitfishcrazy]

Can anyone explain the end?? I don’t understand

[@0_dearghealach_083]

My theory- I think the forest made Starlight hallucinate that she was escaping- I.e. running into the sunlight, but was just running into the fire. I think the forest took Trixie and replaced her with some sort of changeling, but unsure when.
