    2020 Update

    I know I said last time that I would have Chapter 3 up for you by Halloween/New Years, but one of my aunts fell really ill in mid-October and lost her second battle with Cancer in late November, so for a long time now I just haven't been in the mood to write with Chapter 3 nearly completed.

    The Stars That Come At Twilight Chapter 2 - COMPLETE

    Chapter 2 is finally finished and out of preview, so for those of you that ignored it because it's a preview, go ahead, it's all there now! For those that did, I hope this is a good excuse to read it again or something. I don't know. Either way, I'm happy its done.

    Now, I get to have anxiety over Chapter 3! Yaaaay... x.x

    Poll Results!

    Thank you to all 10 of you who voted. The results were pretty decisive; most of you would rather that I wait until I get a 2rd party to overview my work.

    However, I feel bad not giving you something for Christmas (or whatever holiday near this time that yo celebrate), so I will institute the following.

    PREVIEWS!

    A Poll for the Future.

    Sorry for the silence this past little while. I've been very busy IRL and I needed to get a new computer too (my previous one was an 8 and a half year-old Lenovo G550 whose hard disk started to fail) which meant a whole lot transferring and stuff. Writing wise, things have been going well. I wish I could say the same for editing. I had thought I found someone to help me edit back in July, but

It's too big to leave out in the open! Find it after the break!



Isn't she adorable!? <3 :trollestia:

(But seriously, she's great in Rainbow Rocks. Sorry if the cuteness causes lag or crashes. ^^;;)

This is not the Sunset I was expecting.

2562488

Oh please, this is nothing. I've already decided that if I have kids, I'm going to put this in my will. "Do you want my life savings? You can have it! I left everything I own in one piece. Hint: Walls."

The kicker? I really WILL put a check into the wall. Hehe. :trollestia:

Or not. Might not be funny by then. *Shrugs*

2562496 bastard. glorious bastard, but bastard still.

and as someone who did enjoy equestrian girls for what it is, rainbow rocks was simply awesome. only a fool could look at this movie and say it is JUST to compete with monster high now. there was far too much effort put into it this time around.

also yes sunset is adorable and well done as well. loved that there was still a cynicism to her overall even though she is seeking redemption. also liked that it was not an outright, everyone loves her now, thing by the end of the movie and simply that there were people who had begun to accept her.......... also bulk biceps being both the gym teacher and a violinist just works too well.
the one thing I really wanted to see in the first movie was sunset shimmer showing insecurity and jealousy,, hinting without telling that she was motivated by jealousy and anger, and perhaps even a deep pain over being replaced. most we got was hints she had deluded herself into thinking she was in the right, was good, and her holding herself before flying into a rage and attacking twilight.

When I read the title I thought it was about to be of Sunset Shimmer. Then I thought it could be of your story Sunset. Now that's where I got a bit scared. Until I realized it was about Sunset Shimmer. Ciroton you had me hook, line and sinker. :rainbowlaugh:

And yes I agree that Sunset was super adorable in Rainbow Rocks. In fact it was actually the best aspect of the movie. She goes through such an arc. In fact my favorite scene of the movie was when she and Twilight had a Bromance moment(If you saw the movie you know what I mean) . I was kind of shocked to hear from Megan McCarthy that that scene was almost an afterthought. Because usually scenes that are afterthoughts are pretty much filler yet in here it added so much to not only the characters but to the overall thematic of the movie.
This is pretty much the rare instance in which a sequel surpasses the original. It reminds me of movies like Superman II, Empire Strikes Back, Aliens, Terminator 2, Captain America: The Winter Soldier and The Dark Knight(even thought I'm not a fan of it). A sequel that's not only superior in terms of production, music, voice acting but in writing and story structure too.

In fact the movie is very similar to Superman II(The Richard Donnor edition). In that Rainbow Rocks starts almost immediately after the original left off and that the Dazzlings kind of resemble the Phantom Zone criminals from Superman II. Or maybe I'm just over analyzing it.:twilightsheepish:

There is so much to love in the movie it's kind of amazing. :pinkiehappy:

Also Sonata Dusk is the best Dazzle. Mostly because she loves Tacos and has awful taste in Rap.:rainbowlaugh:
