dat tag (is a sentence and comical)

TenchiFreak5 said...

Hmmmmmm. I'm intrigued.

TenchiFreak5 said...

Also, that is a suspiciously specific denial.

Aw you sure there's no twixie?
Not even a little?

YAY TRIXIE!
Read this before on fimfiction I think.
Love it 5/5.

I suppose that, since you so claim there to be no Twixie, I'll give this a try, Seth.

But ONLY since I trust your judgement.

I will be following this. Yes indeedy.

Gabriel LaVedier said...

Actually, I am a little disappointed. Ever time there's a new Trixie story I hope it'll be Gildixie.

TenchiFreak5 said...

All of my stars, on one condition:



Sequels, dammit! Sequels! I want to see Trixie going around Equestria doing amazing James Bond shit.

Wait a moment there...

...what is that "Complete" tag doing there?

Vanner said...

I liked this story. I don't even like Trixe that much, and I really thought this story was clever. Sequel!

When I read the title, the first thing I thought of was CIAPHAS CAIN, HERO OF THE IMPERIUM! And then I thought Cain is pretty much the polar opposite of Trixie.

I would love this to be a series. I find Trixie's character a little "flat" but with action and humor in the mix she makes a great adventurer.

Nightsong said...

.. If this is just a one shot, then the Great and Powerful Trevor will be MOST displeased!

Specter Von Baren said...

Eh, it was okay. I don't know, it just seemed.... I don't know.

That was pretty much my intention when I first picked this title. Then the story veered off into directions which even I didn't predict.

@DPV111
Ah, how so? Always good to know why.

@Specter Von Baren
Missing a little pzzaz? Flair? Interested to know your thoughts.

I'll admit my writing doesn't evoke emotions/vivid imagery as some other authors do.

@others
Thank you for your kind comments. A sequel? Perhaps, but honestly I wrote this so that I can leave it to stand on its own. (Still got Pony Effect to finish ho-hum!)

Melodia said...

Great story, crappy ending.

I loved all the Twixie in it though. Can never get enough Twixie.

I would've enjoyed an episodic series about Trixie continuously running from the tax collectors and sustaining herself by means of varying degrees of integrity, but this works too.

I enjoyed the story quite a bit. But I would have changed the ending.

SPOILER ALERT!!!

---When Steel Hoof gave the instructions papers to trixie, it should have been the tax papers. Then, The old pony would have made the best trollface at the discouraged showmare!

Wierdplatformer said...

Cute and fun to the last drop!

Wait, really? A cliffhanger? Why are you so cruel? I demand a sequel! :D

I need sequels Parker!
Sequels of 007 Trixie!

@Grif

I just feel like it... didn't do as much as it could. I just feel like it didn't come to a conclusion or something. Like... something that shows Trixie doing good with the new direction her life has taken. I'd like to see her showing that she can do well at her new job and maybe show us more of her relationship with that pony that she fired (And met again at the end). I just feel like it left us without giving us enough.

And to be honest, that's a very good criticism to have, the fact that someone wants you to give more means you've got them interested.

@Specter Von Baren

Thank you! Feedback is always appreciated, so feel free to speak.

It is true I deliberately left the plot hanging there, mainly because
a) This was a one-shot I'm supposed to write to get myself off a severe case of writer's block.
b) I wanted to complete Pony Effect first.
c) The original story had very different intentions, and was more comedic than anything else. I... I'm not sure how it morphed into this. It just did.

I realise it may not be the best reason there, but eh, for what's its worth, I apologise for leaving you readers on such a cliffhanger. I promise to continue this as soon as I can get Pony Effect done.

Rassn Fassn long epic stories.

Cátsy said...

Well, this made up for the Trixie reappearing in S2 rumor being shot down. She felt so believable in this story! Though I wonder what it is she thought a Ursa Minor was that she had defeated was? :P

I was expecting more random hijinks when she went into the forest a bit, still overall very nice episode feel to it =3

Shame Hasbro had to leave out such a great mare from their show. I wonder how S2 will effect how many will effect the amount of Fics she gets with new ponies and stuff showing up no doubt. The fandom sure did great things with this showstopping pony! Owell, maybe she'll return in s3? ._.
