Pony Tales [MLP Fanfic Readings] 'A Puppet To Her Fame -- Act I' by Kaidan (darkfic/romance)

[@Tyrinath]

Some how I completely missed it, She was PUSHED down the stairs, and while out, a forbidden ritual was preformed upon her, giving her a cutiemark, forcing a destiny upon her, the hooks are something along of a force hand of fate.

[@jimmysuros6302]

Octavia needed an ECM Jammer.

[@revaslatts8011]

Holy cow!

[@theundyingfighter3147]

I was pushed down the stairs several times when I was younger. My parents just told me to get over the pain, even though I fell a full flight into metals bars.

[@iceluvndiva21]

I just thought they (the strings) were a side effect of the dark magic that she managed to control herself out of survival. I mean they did appear whenever she needed them most. Like at the audition and when her mom basically left her to die from suffocating. Still, I see why you say that

[@iceluvndiva21]

Man..... I just wanna hug Octavia but strangle her parents. No child deserves to have parents who see them as a means to an end

"I won't play a stupid cello!" I'm offended as cello player lol.

[@Distempetor]

ragonday ourtneycay cello is a sickass instrument I don’t see why anyone should hate it

[@revaslatts8011]

@ragonday ourtneycay Why do they treat her so badly anyway? She's their daughter! They have no right to be treating their daughter this way. I think she's stellar on that cello.

[@iona5917]

I play the piano.

[@SammyNeverEver]

Yeah, the cello's pretty retarded (cello player here)

[@theundyingfighter3147]

I love how string instruments sound. I love all instruments actually

[@solar7942]

The mother... The mother! Scribbler, the mother was your best role yet! You played her so well.

[@sweetstepstudio6069]

I just started listening to this, and what drew me in was the artwork. Octavia's smile almost looks serine, but to me, it looks forced, and kind of creepy.

[@errorgaster6768]

SweetStep Studio It is

[@laurenberry7750]

SweetStep Studio It is forced. The strings are piercing her cheeks, pulling her face into a smile, and is also making her play the cello even though she doesn't want to. Haunting, if you read/listen to the story.

[@iona5917]

Yes it is! Cuz I can see the tears coming down her face.

[@nalaoptimistic8450]

Wow octavia's parents are the worst.... Poor Octavia.... 😟

[@theundyingfighter3147]

NalaOptimistic The worst part is that parents like this actually exist. And many of those kids keep silent

[@iceluvndiva21]

I hear ya. If this is how they treat their own child? Then I can't help wondering if they love eachother.

[@maggyfoster8699]

Andrew Grant Well then I’m doing the same

[@jellykitty9618]

Andrew Grant I was doing that too!

[@TheManWhoErasedHisNane]

Possibly the best way to listen to these stories. It lets you visualize what happens yourself.

[@SmugTomato]

Initially, when I saw the time of the video, I was like "FUCK THAT!" But then, I started listening, and I couldn't stop it. It was too beautiful for me to just click off of. This was amazing. Great read!

[@Dollydarlinghomeent]

I'm the same

[@Warrior-Of-Virtue]

Great reading as usual, though this is some really dark stuff. I can see why the author shows her standing over her parents' corpses at the beginning. Without the promise of that payoff, I'm not sure I could listen to this.

[@shaheenazaffar1650]

That's absolutely right

You and thelostnarrator were my CHILDHOOD. Thanks so much for bringing such lovely, high quality readings for the fandom!

[@thelostdiamond1697]

Wait, I just realized, if Octavia played the cello, why isn't her cutie mark a bass clef sign? Creators of mlp need to specify this.. this was posted before watching the whole vid..

[@user-fb9ii9bz2b]

She composes that's why

[@Jess-bo6gm]

TheSoulOfDiamonds i believe the cello is a treble clef instrument.

[@tigerlilykitty3281]

I think it’s because she got the mark through forbidden magic, as is mentioned at 11:45 .

[@squirrelfoodg]

Her cutie mark was put on her by magic, not by her real talent

[@Distempetor]

TheSoulOfDiamonds u can play cello in the treble clef as it’s very rarely used. Although the tenor clef is used to play the high parts

[@holyalexander1737]

Yes definitely the darkest, and the way you set the Atmosphere the the music and all the other sounds, it kept me on the eage of my seat the entier time. I really can't wait for more. As always keep up the great work!

[@Tootz3374]

I didn’t realize till the second time listening that Tavia’s parents were the ones that purchased an Ancient cursed Cello that came with an ancient ritual and the parents enacted the ritual to ensure that talent of the cello and musical composition was her talent to ease their narcissism of the family music prodigy.

[@puppyraptor5765]

"I, want, to FLUTE!" XD I died "Cmooon, I wanna fluuuute..." Octavia is best flute player lol

[@iceluvndiva21]

Lyrah: no pony just wakes up with cutie mark Cheerlie: am I a joke to you? Man, the part when Octavia damn near suffocates backstage makes a tragic amount of sense in part three. Particularally why none helped her

[@JODIESMOISTTOWELETTES]

11:33 "Just because you buy her some special cello doesn't mean she has any talent," Mother stated. "She will now, and I will not keep wasting time on her! Magic is not a clutch to be used right, even forbidden magic, besides It is done now, and will deal with whatever consequences that will arise and will do so with the dignity of our station, she has the cello and now her mark," Father barked. "That is what we decided is most important correct." "And what now? You continue to have servants discipline her for you until she gets good? we could have avoided all of this if you just let me abort the pregnancy before your parents found out," Mother said. I could never understand what Octiva's parents were saying to each other in the video as the recording kept muffling in and out but I listen to it again and wrote down their dialogue as best as I could.

[@vasarat1]

[@Flowerbarrel]

Oh my God, guys, Octavia got Roofied! Her friends need to be better! At least Vinyl was with her the whole time, I guess. My friends told me not to accept drinks from anyone and not to leave my drink alone. I'm glad I had friends who paid attention to that sort of thing. We all watched out for each other when we went to bars. I always thought the way the Earth ponies, Octavia in particular, had to hold their instruments looked incredibly uncomfortable at best and terribly painful at worst. The strings probably contort her limbs to past what they're supposed to be like. It's harder for Earth ponies to play instruments without magic. That makes me afraid that the Octavia in the show is like the Octavia in this story.

[@Somno_toska]

*Slow claps* My god Scribbler, My god this is awesome im kinda sad I have to wait for the next one, Please continue.

[@jlh012204]

This one is a classic, along with Forever Faithful... Excellent!

[@katrinas2083]

It's been years since Ive listened to this story. I forgot how great the voicing and the music was. And I've gotten into classical music so im Definitely happy.

[@dwn_to_clwn]

Octavia joking about her trauma is funny but ““Vinyl may be stubbling home after this but I train everyday!” Vinyl said” is still best 🤣

That was AMAZING the voices, the music. You are the best fan fic readers ever

[@mil-2287]

This is the second time I hear this... awful-amazing fanfic)? The fear it's... yeah. Is amazingly well written, the acting and the audio editing is just...wow, everyone did an amazing job for every character, you are my favorite Octavia voice!! And also, the music seems to be written for this fanfic, it describes perfectly the situation, as if you are actually hearing what Octavia was hearing! Is incredible!!! This is and definetly will be my favorite creepypasta ever.

[@RailfoxStudios]

I cannot express how much I love this fic, and how much more I love this reading, Scribbler. I find myself coming back to listen to this video while I'm just idling about at least once or twice a month. When I finish this one, I move on to the others. I almost know some of this video by heart. I love what you do. I love this so much. Please never stop doing readings, especially dark ones. You do them marvelously and it inspires me whenever I have writer's block.

[@unigamerderp7430]

i feel sad for Octavia :(

[@theradicalreviewer6053]

[@Ravenpuff]

Just want to say this reading was done so very lovely. You never fail to provide something good to listen to while I draw or play and getting something at this length is just a bonus. A well chosen story and a good work on putting the voice acting and music together to tell it just right. Thank you for putting so much into this that we all can enjoy freely. I can't even try to imagine the work put into this just so it can be put up for free. So I just want to thank you for being the best provider of such videos.

I can not believe that Octavia's parents had been abusing her and forcing her to play the cello to get her cutie mark as a kid! Her parents are evil!!!😡😡😡😡 Also the picture her smiling and playing her cello with the strings in her is kinda scary.🙁 By the way- 11:50-12:30 I can BEARLY HEAR OR UNDERSTAND what her parents are talking about in the other room.

I feel the same about all of that two!!!!

[@KHlover369]

Journi Jones my question is why doesn't she run away I mean not that she has friends she can stay with them right

[@journijones3253]

Cause her parents might find her again, and abuse her even more, I think.

“Just because you buy her some special cello doesn’t mean she has any talent,” Mother stated. “And I will not keep wasting time on her! It is done, she has the cello and a mark,” Father barked. “And what now? You continue to have servants discipline her for you until she gets good? We could have avoided all of this if you’d let me abort the pregnancy before your parents found out," Mother said. “Don’t bring them into this. You recall they told me not to marry you? If we can teach that worthless mud pony to be a famous musician, it will prove we’re better than them.” “Then let me handle her. You lack subtlety. I will make her submit to her fate and play the cello. . .” Mother trailed off as I sprinted back to my room.

I've been watching/listening to your videos for a long time now, and I just want to say how awesome you are. Anyway, I hate to ramble and such but I hope you get through any tough times ya have.

I love all your readings. But this one too me is your masterpiece. I was new to the fandom when I found it. and it never loses any of it's allure. I can listen a thousand times and it is still something to behold in it's captivating ability. Your performance as Octavia is the voice for her I always hear. Like Nowhacing is Vinyl you made Octavia alive for me. You are Octavia to me.

[@Darksoulpoetry]

I can't praise you enough.It would boarder on boot licking. We don't mind listening over and over again. It is dark. and your not a fan of dark. but it is real. visceral. full of feeling. Love and tragedy. Like a great opera. That's what I suppose I love most. It's an opera of a very hurt being. It ends in tragedy as all operas must. as life must. It is as beautiful as it is sad.

[@Darksoulpoetry]

An opera is magnificent because it reminds the masses that life could hurt a lot more. That it's not so bad to live. That we should be happy even if we don't like our starting and end.

[@Chillbot17]

It seems that her parents have a similar mindset as the ponies that lived before equestria. When the tribes were bitter to each other, and brought about the magical blizzard of the Wendigos which forced them to seek out new land. [And in a grimdark fiction, created the Candymare that tormented pony kind until the rise of the sisters. This was thanks to a twisted candy maker in the Unicorn's castle city]

[@lancer6292]

You have the perfect voice for Octavia. You should have been chosen for her voice in Rainbow Rocks rather than the person that was.

Also, HOW is Octavia hearing music even though the instruments aren't playing?

I’m rewatching this... Since I did, this has been the cause of my phobia to puppets. It’s not the puppets themselves... It’s that thought of being one myself, of being so utterly controlled... It’s also why I stopped believing in God and free will... I feel as thought my fate is sealed... Yet here I am, listening to it again. 😅
