    Thoughts: On Names: Design

    Whew! It has been quite a while since the last Thoughts blog. The Ponies on Earth blog is currently going nowhere because I am blocked on the topic and I am still reorganizing my thoughts… for the past one and a half years. Plus, I have all these story ideas swarming my head, snarling all my writings to a crawl. Not to mention my day job robbing most of my free time but I am doing my best

    Post: MMDG contest entry up

    News
    The More Most Dangerous Game contest deadline ended over a couple of hours ago and I barely submitted the thing in time. Final rush of 18 hours of almost non-stop writing and I managed almost 2.5k words (17 words below the minimum word limit, I hope EqD doesn't disqualify my entry =s).

Post: Want You Here · 4:41pm Nov 1st, 2013

Cassia sat in front of Garand’s computer. A hoof tapped the orange glowing keys of the keyboard idly. She wasn’t really doing anything, like she had been for the past four months.

“Stupid… Garand…”

Cassia sighed and looked away from the monitor. The tapping increased in intensity just a little and her eyes narrowed.

“It’s… all about those WBA stories now, isn’t it?”

A pout formed on her lips as her tapping increased yet again in intensity. Just as the tapping threatened to punch a hole through the gaming keyboard, a familiar electronic tune blared from the speakers. Cassia jolted up with wide eyes.

“Oh… you didn’t…”

A familiar deep voice started singing:

Well, here we are again
It’s always such a pleasure
Remember when you tried
to tase me twice?

Cassia narrowed her eyes. “No… I tased you thr— fou— five times!”

Oh, how we laughed and laughed
Except I wasn’t laughing
Under the circumstances,
I’ve been shockingly nice

You want your revenge?
Take it
That’s what I’m counting on

Cassia ground her teeth. “I… had my revenge!”

I’ve always liked you here

Cassia’s eyes widened. “I…”

and
Still I always want you here

Cassia’s head now hung just a little. Tears welled in her eyes. “I… thought you didn’t like me anymore… You… just want to write about griffons and deers and kirins.”

You’re a silly spirit
(That’s what I liked about you)
Now little did I know I would anger you
One day you locked me up
So I could write forever
It will be so sad for me
when all this ends for us

“Yes…” Her head hung lower.

You’ve got your
long,
boring wait
And I’m so sorry for that
If only I could make it up
So always I want you here

“You… could… by writing.” A slight pout appeared on her face again.

Sorry my good, good friend
Oh, I really will repay you
It’ll be heartwarming
if I get on it
Well, I’ll finish chapter four
So you don’t have to wait now
When I finish it maybe
I’ll stop feeling so bad

Go make yourself at home here
That’s what I’m counting on
You’re my very special guest
Still I always want you here
Still I always want you here
Still I always want you
here

“Oh… Garand…” Cassia turned the swivel chair around only to jump at the sight of a familiar figure standing behind her all the while. She hung her head again.

Garand patted Cassia on her head. “I’m sorry that I couldn’t finish anything for the past four months, Cassia.”

She did not reply.

Taking a hoof in hand, Garand said: “I ask for you to be just a little more patient.” He smiled. “Because my muse is back, baby!” He threw up his hands into the air.

A smile appeared on Cassia’s face as well. “Now… I expect to see chapter four published in the very, very near future, Garand.”

“I’ll get it done, Cassia.” Garand’s smile got wider. “Now, wanna see what I’ve got for chapter four?”

Cassia brightened.

“Yes…”

......... seems like you've fallen in love with your character Garand... is that a little creepy?

*Growls Weren't you the one who said you had to love your characters in order to write them vren55?

Yes, but this implies in the romantic sense and I can't do that for you Alternia.

Why? *materializes Halberd

Because if I were to show you at your best I need to put you in painful situations that will come up... It'd really tear my heart apart. Frankly I think I already am getting to like you too much.

*sighs. I suppose, besides I don't like you that way either. Now get to work on your Nightmare Night Chapter!

*salutes! Your wish is my command Your Highness. Good luck Garand!

I expect to see you soon Cassia.

Who said we were in love? :trollestia:

Cassia was feeling neglected, locked me up, I sang a song to cheer her up and everything is better now. =x

How... did you get rid of the wards?

Princess Celestia brute forced through 1,280 of them... She's uh, recuperating in bed right now. >_>

How the heck did you set so many, anyway? Did you steal my Thought Generator again?

I... uh... It... was the only way to make so many wards in that short time...

... Right. Now, can I have it back?

*Rummages through his pocket*

Wait, nevermind. It's here.

And yes, you'll see Cassia very soon. =D Yes...

Well I said you were in love because it seems right out of those animes in which you married a Tsundere, Garand....

I personally think its cute, vren55. Even if they aren't really in love... at least they're good friends.

YOSH!!!! Author and creation teams ROLL OUT!!!!

Did you have to reference Transformers and Naruto in the same sentence. Don't answer me, of course you had to.
