[THE LIST] "DSP-adjascent" is a real term and you can't change my mind · 6:17pm Sep 13th, 2019
This list is not about my favorite stories of all time. That's my favorites list and one of these days I may get around to writing reviews of those fics.
The List is about stand-out, in-progress works that deserve more love, for whatever reason. In addition to general reviews of the fics, these blog posts will tell why I picked a particular story and highlight any features the reader should look out for. Spoilers will be appropriately marked, so you'll be able to read my reviews with confidence that you'll be able to read the story itself and experience the same surprise and delight I did when I first found it.
Also, authors and fans of works will be able to submit stories. Your particular selection may not make it onto the list, and the more information you give me for why you think it should be featured, the more likely I'll be to read and post it. To submit a fiction, simply PM me through FiMFiction's link on my profile.

A Princess, a Magician, and an Exile Walk Into a Bar

Premise
Sometimes you want to go where everypony knows your name...even if you were once taken over by dark magic and tried to enslave others in a bid for domination.
Princess Columbia's Synopsis
Ponies gettin' hammered is somehow much funnier when at least two of them could literally destroy the world and the third isn't a slouch either.
Why am I highlighting this fic?
It's not just that this is written by Sporktacles (who is an unintentional collaborator in the DSP-verse), though that helps. It's that it's just plain funny and a rather large departure for the author, who's work usually delves into the sexual-humor end of the Laughter pool.
What makes this fic particularly good?
Yes it matches my headcanon for Sunset Shimmer, but that's not why. It's because it's a group of adults just...commiserating. It's telling the story about telling stories to reassure each other that they're not alone in the great, wide multiverse.
Who would like this fic?
If you like my and Sporktacles' other fics, you'll enjoy this one as well.
Does the author monetize?2
No, be sure to drop them a line to encourage them to become a filthy, filthy capitalist.
- Endorsement on Princess Columbia's List is an endorsement of the selected work of fiction only and is not intended to endorse the creator of the work in any other way.
- Why highlight whether the author monetizes their work? By providing renumeration to the author, you often get the opportunity to request certain works be given higher priority. Additionally, when a person is able to get paid for their passion on their terms, it can often allow them to cut out things that otherwise distract from said passion, like a day job.

"My opponent has described my stance as irresponsible, illogical, and even Drunken Sex Party-adjacent. And I would like to take this time to thank him for the compliments."
In any case, yeah, that is a fun story.
