Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon are introduced to a new friend: Zippoorwhill. Zippoorwhill is pleased to meet them, but the same can't be said for the two rich fillies of refined tastes. So how will they deal with Zippoorwhill in order to regain their peaceful lifestyles?

Awesome one shot, always good to see a DT story!

Is that really what her name is? I thought it would be something like Hummingbird.....

Either way, she is just too damn cute!

:twilightsmile: This was adorable.

Gawd that's cute.:rainbowkiss:

Yes! First Zippoorwhill story and it's super cute. Just like her!

I would like a story with Zippoorwhill and Scoots next, just to see Scoots freak out more.

her new, limited edition Charity doll, whilst Silver Spoon placed the accessories onto her new Applesack doll

I see what you did there.. :3

She's so CUTE! Enjoyed the story and added it to a bunch of groups. :twilightsmile:

ZIppoorwhill story! YES! :pinkiehappy:

I love the similar but legally distinct from princess toy range.

Also I really liked that it infers so many more stories because of it. One can only assume that the CMC will be incredibly confused when they encounter DT and SS standing up for Zip. All of the theories about her being secretly evi or something, while she would not be cool with them bullying. It's a cute dynamic.

Good story!

Moving on. :pinkiesad2:

Awesome. Once again you manage to make those two not need throttling. How DO you do it?

Diamond Tiara blinked as she took in the sight of a former beautiful princess whose head had been removed and replaced with that of a shark’s.

It's Midnight Sprinkle, Princess of Sharks! RAWWWRRR! :pinkiecrazy:

I was really hoping to see Alula turn up at some point here.

Because one annoying pegasus is all a group ever needs, and she's NOT giving Diamond up.

I was guessing her name was something with speed or animals because of her paw print cutie mark.

Apparantly zippoorwhill is a type of bird, named for the sound it makes.

"whippoorwill", actually. They make really annoying sounds.
zipporwill is a mix of that and "zip", because she zips around so much

So I'm not the first to suspect the new filly would become a permanent cast member, join the other two rich fillies to even the numbers with the CMC so they can switch from the bully dynamic to a more rival-y one, perhaps! At the very least, Zip might be a good morality pet for DT and SS. :pinkiehappy:

NERRRRRRRRD! :flutterrage:

Looks like it's about that time again. Time for another trip into the Yukiverse. Only, hold on, something's weird about this story. It's almost alien, as if...could it be? Yes, I believe so. It's a Yukito story that takes place within the confines of the canonical universe. Let's see how it stacks up.

This story seems to follow the "new, unwanted friend" story template point for point. New friend appears, she annoys the main character, main character tries to get rid of her, something bad happens to her that makes main character realize she actually cares about her in some way, and main character eventually ends up either reluctantly or willingly becoming friends with her. This story includes something of an epilogue to further develop their friendship but never quite makes it anything out to be more than an act of pity on Diamond and Silver's part. However, I'm not sure what the success rate of those types of friendships are, so I can't really say if that's a positive or negative trait.

As always, your characterization of Diamond and Silver is both fair and reasonable, representing their friendship as one strong enough for them to jab at each other without a second thought. They come across as neither needlessly cruel nor misunderstood angels, which is already a step above your average story that includes them. Also, though they don't have much development given the nature and length of the story, they also don't come across as flat. They don't just hate Zippoorwhill immediately upon impact. They run her through the trials before deciding that she's no good, which is most likely how this situation would go down if the CMC were in their same position.

I have not at this time seen Zippoorwhill's character in action nor do I have any idea what her canon personality is like, so I can't really comment on how well her characterization is implemented. I can say that you greatly demonstrated why Diamond and Silver would want nothing to do with her. After reading your portrayal of this character, she's been firmly and definitively placed onto my Scootalist. If she never comes back or does anything again, it will not matter to me.

I don't know what kind of operation Filthy's running here, but from my experience, you don't show up with snacks when someone's about to leave. Then again, that's mainly because the leaving party generally has to take the snack into the car, where it can stain the seats and frustrate the other parents. Even so, if he's got both a snack and a drink, that's a sedentary meal for something that eats with what it walks with. I call poor time management on Filthy's part. Also, if the children 'retreated' toward the schoolhouse after Silver Spoon's nonthreatening comment, how were they still there to flinch at her threatening one?

Spelling and grammar seemed fine. I only spotted two errors:

“Well, at least she’s happy now… and he dad didn’t find out about what we did to her.”

'he dad'.

One week later, Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon the last to leave Cheerilee’s classroom as their morning classes came to an end.

Sentence fragment.

I'd call this story a bowl of vanilla pudding with a pinwheel placed in as decoration. It's good pudding, it follows a good recipe, and though the pinwheel's colorful, I do think the pudding is easier to eat when the pinwheel's been removed.

Make the most!

The snacks and drinks were more for DT and SS, since it was only Zippoorwhill leaving, but Zip could've taken some snacks for the road :3

So I genuinely liked this. It was cute and fluffy. Finally found time to read it.

Really great and super adorable; now, if only we could her some clopfics...

Diamond Tiara, Mafia boss.

Also, mafia Diamond and Silver? EPIC WIN.

“Well, good enough to convince my mum that I’m sick, at least. Why?”

“We’re going to the library,” Diamond Tiara said, a devious grin on her face, “And Princess Twilight Sparkle is going to ‘accidentally’ hurt your leg.”
