The Canterlot Embassy Chapter 3 is LIVE · 6:08pm Jul 9th, 2012


Chapter 3: Tipping Point is the last third of the first half of this story. I also spent a few days remastering Chapter 1, since my impression of the characters had changed so much since I'd written it. One example is that I originally conceived August as being a follower, but by the end of Chapter 3, I realized that she was going to be the leader, and that Eve was going to play the role of the new girl. I also made the President a little more Presidential, the August/DJ relationship a little less cutesy, fleshed out the political intrigue, and so on, and so forth.

I guuueesssss I'll finish DB now. Sheesh.


:raritywink:


Have a great day!

I will reread!
Also, EqD? :pinkiehappy::pinkiesad2::pinkiehappy::pinkiesad2::pinkiehappy::pinkiesad2::pinkiehappy::pinkiesad2::pinkiecrazy::pinkiesick:

218774 If you're asking am I planning to submit, then yes. I just wanted to get through the first round of comments and see if anyone sees any mistakes.

I was going for the Futurama "death by snu-snu" joy/horror effect, followed by mental breakdown and nausea.

There have only been four fics I have ever read that were not on EqD already that I think should be. This is #4. I am nervous because I think it offers something fresh and unique; and more than it deserves to be read, people deserve to read it.

(The other 3 are "Strictly Draconic" which was rejected, "So You've Grown Wings" which was rejected, and "Smoke and Mirrors" which I have no idea if it was even submitted. All of which have relatively similar concept stories on EqD that I objectively think are lower quality. It makes me angsty.)

218825 You really do keep me going with this hobby, I'll tell you. After I finish DB I might have to do a 1-shot about your OC.

219229 A broken link for ME? How sweet!

219229 By the way, how about that sweet pic I found for the Introduction to Ch 1 of TCE? It's Obama's rug, but I don't think people will care.

219231 I'm not really sure what I'm supposed to be taking away from this horrific image. Is he eating somepony? Is this some sort of homage? I'm scared.

I should have captioned it "oh the horror, please don't". But I thought it was self explanatory. Then again, I've had 4-.... make that 5 shots of vodka tonight...
