Comic: Ponyborn / Trouble with Rhymes

Source

Fluttershy is best dragonborn.  Seriously guys, where are my pony character models? The game has already been out for three days! I demand results!   This dumb Khajit doesn't even have thief racials... what a waste.  Melee claw attack? Like I'd ever use that over my 15X backstab dagger!

And Zecora slips up below.  I guess it was only a matter of time.

Fluttershy is best Skyrim pony. Simply because its so ironic

Bombedrumbum said...

@wizardshy i had to log in for some reason, sorry

Bombedrumbum said...

Yes!! Zecora.....YESS!!!!

MegaPatron said...

Fluttershy dragonborn....SO AWESOME

cant rhyme with orange....XD

Kaijyuu said...

Writing Zecora's lines is a pain in the ass. I gave up trying a while back.

Bombedrumbum said...

what about the color purple, huh? "Twilight, with your coat of purple" YEAH, GOOD LUCK WITH THAT ONE

slizardmaster said...

Makes you wonder how devastating Lunas would be.

Pyrobug said...

Dorvakin Fluttershy is best Fluttershy!

SparkleFun said...

Meh, the 2nd comic was funny, but the f-bomb felt a little gratuitous. Probably because I have a thing about making ponies swear.

Bombedrumbum said...

Oh wait, how could i call myself a knowledgeable brony? Purple rhymes with curple, an equine related thing. Sorry, folks

thegamefilmguruman said...

But "Sporange" rhymes with "Orange."

Homfrog said...

"Curple" is a term for a horse's hindquarters. :D

WizardShy said...

They need to have an episode like the second comic, where Zecora accidentally ends her line with a word that she can't rhyme with, and the rest of the episode is her stubbornly refusing to speak.

Whitbane said...

Orange = Door hinge.
...
...
Close enough.

jeremiah said...

you can do better than that fluttershy

Tundra said...

@Whitbane
Close, but no cigar.

and for #1, I'm lost.

thegamefilmguruman said...

@Whitbane

Or use "sporange" a very rare alternative form of sporangium.

Flutterfan said...

Haha I chuckled at the second one.

Michael said...

Hey shuddup Seth, Khajiit are pretty fuckin' awesome. :D Though I do get what you mean about not starting with special Thief-related skills other than being able to cast Night Eye as much as you want.

At least the characters look pretty. :3

ToonNinja said...

Royal Canterlot Voice=Thu'um. God, I love canon.

Also: "door hinge," "or singed," "Thor binged..."
...That's all I got now, but it's something.

SgtGarand said...

Hmm, so Seth is a Khajiit as well. I've also gone with Nord or Bretons, but the Khajiit look so badass in Skyrim.

Dovashy....LOUDER!

lol Zecora. I guess it's not easily ad-libing rhymes.

Octavia said...

#1 Guess since I haven't played Skyrim I don't entirely get the jist of this one. But I still find it kinda humorous. Fluttershy in that outfit and such is funny by itself. :P

#2 Wasn't this one already posted I thought? I know I've seen this comic. But maybe it wasn't here that I saw it. Anyway, it's funny. Made me laugh. Dat orange.

Vargras said...

@Octavia

The whole joke is that what Fluttershy is doing is essentially shouting in a dragon's tongue. You do it with such ferocity in-game that it's highly destructive. Unfortunately, since Fluttershy can't quite manage, it's not nearly as uh... impressive.

Dublio said...

If you've ever played a Star Wars game, it's like a force push, except it's done by shouting instead of using your hand.

Fluttershy's yay is adorable but not nearly as loud enough. :D

-repeats what the guy above said basically-

MasterofRoku said...

@Vargras:

I get it now. Man, I need to play some new games.

Supreme Commander of Brony Mountain said...

@slizardmaster
Sweet mother of Celestia...
(pictures Luna speaking in Ye Olde Cap Lock, then add dragonshout...complete obliteration of Whiterun)

But it makes me wonder, how would Fluttershy fight a dragon? Yes she can fly too I suppose but she wouldn't want to hurt it... Maybe break out extreme phsysical therapy again?

LegatoSkyheart said...

I'm more surprise there isn't a RarityXSpike Off spring that IS the Pony Dragonborn.

Shutterfly said...

Applejack with a coat of Orange,
have you come to drop off the remedial sporange?
Sporange is a rare alternate of sporangium, which is part of a fern, so it would make sense that Zecora needs it.

Rainbow Dash said...

Spike does not look amused xD'''

Also, orange is one of the very few words in an english dictionary (along with silver) that its near impossible to rhyme with unless with a made up word.
Oh crap I have GOT to stop hanging out at the library, I'm actually LEARNING something UGH!!!

thegamefilmguruman said...

@Shutterfly

Finally someone else who is aware of the word "sporange!" I was beginning to this I was the only one after reading the comments.

Fredward said...

"Why do I talk all the time, it's really hard to make these rhyme!"

cjwcjwcjwcjw said...

Hahaha, I remember seeing that Zecora comic black-and-white.

And btw, no, nothing rhymes with orange perfectly, save for 'sporange', which is not used anymore.

Unknown said...

@Rainbow Dash Looks like somepony has been hanging out with Twilight just a tad too much.

Reaver102 said...

Why are you not using Brotherhood gloves, turns that X15 to X30, then your doing damage!

Senior Waffles said...

#1 Yeeeaaaaaah I don't get it. Yay?
#2 Well played, well played indeed.

Baked Bad said...

2. Painted yourself into a bit of a corner, didn't you Zecora?

Vargras said...

I also wanted to say that #1 is surprisingly fitting. There's actually a shout in Skyrim that calms animals. It's perfect for Dovashy!

Demon Donkey said...

Love the Zecora comic.

StrangeNoise said...

Tom Lehrer rhymed orange, and he was just flexing.

Though I can't find the file now. :-(

Something about bizarre enj-/oyment thereof I think.

KTS said...

1. Skyrim and Fluttershy...
2.Nothing rhymes with Orange.

PonyPonyPonyBrony said...

Oh, Zecora, you so funny. Loved the second comic.

Demonu said...

What rhymes with orange?
I seem to recall Etrigan (DC comics) being able to rhyme it with:
- door hinge
- whore binge
So yes, it is possible to rhyme with orange.

HareTrinity said...

2 English words do rhyme with "orange": "Blorenge" (a hill in Wales) and "sporange" (as said above).

To be fair to Zecora; name places seem to change a lot and Brayton may not have a hill named Blorenge.

Sporange is a botany term though. Seems pretty safe and I bet Zecora would know it.

HareTrinity said...

^^^ Oop, someone said Blorenge already too! My bad!

At least we're all above "syringe" here!

pmcollectorboy said...

I seem to recall another one of those big Spike stories where Spike asked Zecora for an orange.

Cameron said...

#2 really falls flat because "nothing rhymes with orange" is a myth.

mycutiemarkisagun said...

...and #2 plays out EXACTLY like I thought it would.

VIVA PROFANITY

I prefer official, and professional, opinions on these matters rather than from random Internet professors.

Sketch Pad said...

Applejack with coat of orange, I was on my way
To go shopping - but it can wait. How can I help you today?

See? Problem solved, Zecora!!

ShadixCF said...

Hey Seth/CerealVelocity/Phoe, The reason why we lack the mods.....

IS BECAUSE WE HAVE NO TOOLS!

Yet....

Latias4Ever said...

Skyrim SUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCKS!

Wierdplatformer said...

These two fill me with joy! XD
