Rust


Out at sea, rockin' steam dreams and pilot valves... Deuces.

E

A thief.

I guess that's what I've always been. I've spent my life plundering ruins, seeking out the relics of ancient times, dodging traps and outsmarting incompetent villains... and collecting the hefty finders fee, to boot. It's been a great ride, wouldn't trade it for the world. But I'm not the young filly I used to be. Maybe it's time I hang up the helmet. Maybe.

But not without one last job. I've got a lead on the greatest find in history: The fabled Crown of Harmony, worn by the Pony Queen before she vanished, eons ago. Somepony doesn't want it to be found, though.

Somepony who knows why.

Dangit Rust! Posting so many new stories in a single day will only stir up the masses! I don't think you can handle that many people oozing out of the woodwork!

Oozing I can handle. When they start swarming... that's when you run.

4169080 Yes, because we all know that swarming usually means Changelings...

Oh!" She removed a three foot longsword made of pure fire. "Sword of Destiny?" She paused, then callously tossed it over a shoulder. "Naw... too easy..."

That line alone makes this gold.

But luckily, it's followed by a load of amazingness, such as being connected to the underrated G1, the stellar characterization of Daring Do and the nice little twist with Shining Armor being involved.

All in all, this is a story that I will eagerly follow!

Damn, I'm a sucker for well-written, Indy style Daring Do stories. I'll definitely be following this.

Nothing good has ever come out of crown with a capital C. All Tartarus is about to break loose.

This is inspired by Sly I assume great play on it I like now who are going to become Murray and Bentley if the trend follows we have Shining as Carmalita already.

Dat cover tho.

Edit: Dat story tho.

Honor Among Thieves Is Honor Under the Seas! :rainbowlaugh:
I love My Bride is a Mermaid!

Sweet god, I love this and I want MORE.

There's a saying: "There is no honor among thieves."
It's from Shakespeare. :pinkiehappy:
Good read, very very verrryyyyyy good.

This... this is a good thing.

... Is honor under the sea?

Am I the only one who, reading the title, immediately thought "Sly Cooper: Honor Among Thieves"?:twilightblush:

In any case, really cool story, Rust.

irony is i've had this 500 words away from finished for almost a year. was going to release it on april fools just like the first chapter. I sat down to write it tonight and then suddenly realized that getting back into boxing after a several month hiatus makes your hands really fucking sore and clumsy.

so yeah. tomorrow-ish? april fools...?

(est. time to write this message 5 min many typos shaky fingers fuck this chickenshit bullshit)

Very interesting story here. Would never have considered the Daring Armour pairing.
I hope this story isn't dead. Would love to see more!
