Review #37 - Princess Celestia Hates Tea, A Short Story by Twilight Sparkle, Most of the Cast is Replaced by Inanimate Objects · 4:06pm Jan 10th, 2017

I can be stupid, but not outrageous / I can be sickness, but not contagious / I can be empty, but I'm not nameless / It's another three stories, another three stories:

Seriously, a lot

Review
Celestia tells Twilight that she secretly hates tea, and of course Twilight freaks out. Guards come bursting in and try to arrest her for being a Changeling. Once they get that cleared up, they discover a couple billion tea vendors formed an angry mob and want to yell at Celestia. To prevent civil unrest, Celestia pretends it was all because she was under some dark magic, and goes back to drinking tea.

The pacing is fairly good, but it can get to feel a little bit long at times. It has very few errors within the text, which is nice. And it seems fairly well planned out, though there is a bit of filler here-and-there. The tag works quite well.

Score: 8/10 Recommendation: Recommended.

Personal Thoughts: This one goes against many others on the issue of tea, but it does so in a hilarious way.

A Short Story by Twilight Sparkle by Skywriter
This is a sequel to Princess Celestia Hates Tea
(Slice of Life)
Princess Celestia helps to banish a hoofful of inner demons lurking deep in the heart of a troubled author. Metafiction, again, ensues. Something of a coda to "Princess Celestia Hates Tea".

Review
Celestia tells Twilight that she is ok with Twilight's story about Celestia hating tea. That is quite literally what this is about.

This has ok pacing, as it can get to feel rather long. It has very few errors within the text, which helps out. And it seems, at the least, mostly planned out, thought there is quite a bit of filler. The tag works, though.

Score: 7.5 Recommendation: Intermediate.

Personal Thoughts: This one gives more content to Princess Celestia Hate Tea, but it is not as good.

(Comedy, Random)
There is a point where we need to stop and we have clearly passed it. BUT LET’S KEEP GOING AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS. Title pretty much says it all.

Review
The cast gets replaced by inanimate objects while Pinkie Pie is going crazy. Thankfully, her real friends come along and bring her back to reality.

This pacing is incredible, though it could probably, at some point, use a sequel. It has very few errors within the text, which really adds to the experience. It also seems both planned out, and completely random at the same time, which broke my brain a bit. The tags work extremely well.

Score: 9.5/10 Recommendation: Highly Recommended.

Personal Thoughts: This is great, and really gives insight to Pinkie's soul...

Ooh, Skywriter. Getting to one of the real big guns of ponyfic now. :twilightsmile: I like Tea a good deal, but (to my surprise) I don't seem to have read the other one of his yet. Must do something about that!
