Hey guys, sorry there've been so many things keeping me from this chapter. It's the main writing project on my plate right now, but after a bit of thinking, I've been deviating from some stuff I'd already written, so this next bit will still take a few days. Just for the people paying attention, I wanted to show you how the next part begins, directly from the writing.
...So here's an excerpt from what is the sixth or seventh chapter (entitled I Hung my Head after song of the same name. Yes I have a habit of naming chapters after songs I listen to when I write if they seem appropriate). I suppose being in a self-loathing mood meant working on this chapter took precedence over any other too.
Don't look past the cut if you'd rather not spoil it that far ahead.
This is unedited, and it could always change. I hope to have it out within the next few days. Anyways, here's an excerpt from the latest chapter of my Nightmare Night story.
Flit was tentative, biting his lower lip as he sat up. “I...” He looked up at Fear with watery eyes. “I might've gotten in a little in over my head. I scavenged in the Maneami Manifesto's territory because I was looking to make the big caps. You know how it is, right?”
“I do,” Fear grinned. “And now you're worried they're going to come for you. That someone saw you. Knows who you are and is going to hunt you down, yeah?”
I'm here once again with Sneak-Peek Saturday! This time, this Sneak-Peek Saturday will be covering the next two weeks, and some excerpts from the next chapters of the stories that'l update in that time. This is because I most likely won't be putting up one of these next week.
The Conversion Bureau EarthGate Saga: A Fist Clenched In Rage
Chapter 8 Excerpt
Part 57 - Revealed Racers is the chapter that you'll either remember for Phoenix's long talk with Trixie, or all the Frozen references. As I agree with the benefit of hindsight that I royally overdid the latter, all but one has been removed. And the only reason I kept that one was so I could turn around and subvert it:
Sometimes I think I can write, then I try. This is one of those trying times.

It was all too much for me. If I didn't get out of here soon I might just go insane. Or more sane, I'm not too sure anymore. I looked on into the yelling and chaos. It was either they had to go or i did and I didn't have any way of communicating with them, let alone convince them. Taking nothing, I left the bakery.
With Part 59 - Of Mares and Men seeing some hefty additions to the attorney misconduct board scenes.
Before, the hearings were too short, and a major figure was not heard from--The Judge. Now, he has some very pointed things to say about both Phoenix and Trixie's performance during Rainbow Dash's trial, and Fluttershy makes a plea on Phoenix's behalf as well:
I think that this is the last bit of the story I have written that I'm willing to spoil.

... of things to come.
Without further ado:
A smattering of seconds, or perhaps several minutes, later, a fluffy, ash-colored figure appeared, and a haze of pink covered me, and the rushing in my ears faded enough for words to come through.
“Careful! She might be concussed.”
my new favorite character
It's kinda weird how I had so much free time back in 2020, yet my productivity only came rushing in by this year. Anywhos, I thought I'd share a couple of excerpts of all the pony stuff I'm currently working on, all ordered according to my (tentative) release schedule.
Alrighty, it's been awhile too long since I talked about Twilight's Monster and its follow-up. Let's fix that.
Not a winner, but I had a blast (pictures will be available in a future post), and I made some headway on Turnabout Storm chapter revamps as well. No less than four updated chapters were posted last night, meaning the entire story through Part 37 is now updated. Aside from the usual edits, I added some additional details in several places, including how and why Pinkie is able to do metalwork and regarding how exactly Twilight summoned Phoenix and The Judge originally:
(Warning, disturbing imagery)
This is the end of Equestria.
The coming of the Separatist Army and the destruction of the Caribou Empire of Equestria would in future histories be named "The Second Fall". The First Fall was when the caribou came and destroyed the old order of things, now the Droid Army would end the Caribou Order.

There were dead things here.
Old things.
Dead, old things that were dark.
The darkness permeated the very air and the spirit. And even without a heart, Chrysalis could almost feel it’s absent beat grow louder.
There were not many things that left a queen such as her in fear. There were not many things more powerful, or as old. There were not many things that were truly a threat.
This was one such thing among that very short list.
WHO ARE YOU?
“CLOUD!” Red hooves gripped his. Cloud’s eyes looked up into the blue eyes of Captain Sunride, the other guards fast approaching as they flew or galloped in the gale to reach him. Sunride pulled so hard Cloud felt like his hooves would be yanked from their sockets. Multiple tentacles suddenly rushed forward, one wrapping around Clouds midsection, another wrapping around Sunride’s neck. Cloud screamed as it spread up over Sunride’s face, suffocating him as it dragged them both back towards the
EDIT: Maybe this project is cancelled. I'm not sure.
A SHORT passage may be anywhere from a line or two long, to a few hundred words long I guess.
If you do, can you say what they are (and where they come from, naturally)?
Also, it might be good to have some examples that can be understood and appreciated even by someone from outside the fandom.
Thank you!
