I've cried a few times after finishing books. Once I did it in my third grade class and one kid mocked me for it >.>

He got told off by the teacher though

First time I cried reading a book was Bridge To Teribinthia. I didn't even like the freaking thing either.

I've got it. It's a magazine article about those planes that can break the sound barrier with ease.

x6 Oh yeah, Where the Red Fern Grows. Read that back in 2007, I think.

...yeah, it was pretty sad.

Didn't cry though.

You know, aside from being colored strangely, the ponies would fit right in to Narnia.

I think Aslan and Celestia would get along just fine.

I don't think I've ever cried reading a book.

Then again, I try to steer clear of stuff that'd make me cry.

In films though, Dogs are an INSTANT way to make me cry

Back in high school, one of the class assignments was to read a book called Ten Top Stories. They were all short fiction stories, and every one of them had a downer ending.

I distinctly remember Flowers for Algernon being one of them.

I discovered Flowers for Algernon in a science fiction short-story anthology.

The only time I've ever cried from any form of media was from the ending of Grave of the Fireflies. Wonder if there's a pony version of it...

#83318 gingerninja 666 Sun, 29th Jan '12 4:59:58 PM from Aboard The Damocles

Isn't Flowers For Algernon supposed to have a Bittersweet Ending?

They lick their hoof.

I wonder if RD would read the pony equivalent of an Ian Fleming novel. Short and full of suspense.

Or Roderick Thorpe's Nothing Lasts Forever*

Or Supeman. Does Equestria have comics?

With their hooves? Mouths? Blow on them? Can't be that difficult.

And yeah, Aslan and Celestia would totally get along.

#83325 Perpetual Lurker Sun, 29th Jan '12 5:01:59 PM

I think their hooves are dexterous enough to snag one page to turn. Either that or they do it with their teeth, but that seems pretty awkward. I guess we'll find out when RD reads, though.
