    What's up, guys?

    I'm writing an essay for English class reflecting on how I've grown as a writer, and I decided to hop on this old account to see how things have changed.
    My stories were... well. From my 19-year-old perspective I think a lot of them lacked substance. I cringe to think about them, but at the same time it's nice to know I've grown. We all had to start somewhere, lol.

    Publishing Old Drafts

    What's up guys, long time, no see. So I've been mulling this over for a while: publishing the drafts of unfinished stories. In particular, there was one story on which I was hard at work, an extended Capdagio narrative (crackship, if you're not in the know). I wish I could finish that story, but it's been a while so I don't think that'll happen. However I worked hard on the seven-or-so chapters I

    Oh nooooooooo

    I can't see the new EqG shorts right away because I'll be at Youth Group. :raritydespair:

    I guess I've been out of the loop, because I didn't even realize we were getting new shorts until a few minutes ago. Can't wait, though. We're getting a Twilight song, Rainbow's Daring Do antics, Pinkie Pie at the cafe, Rarity with her S1 butterfly wings... Sounds awesome!

    Angel Pulse and Shortstack designs

    Aight so if you've been following my most recent story, Lack of Faith, you'll know my concepts for Scootaloo's parents. Her father, Shortstack Outflow, the CEO of Cloudsdale's plumbing company, and Angel Pulse, her stay-at-home mother.

    I finally designed them! Without further ado:

There's one thing that mildly irks me...

Mom's emotions are all female, and Dad's emotions are all male, but Riley's emotions are 3 females and 2 males. :rainbowhuh: What's up with that?

...that's strange. Never realized that.

3137661 :applejackunsure: I get that they don't want to have only girls, for gender diversity. But still, it doesn't line up.

3137662 Hmm, I think it's because some emotions like joy, disgust, and sadness can be portrayed as females whereas anger and fear can be portrayed as males.

3137714 But then why aren't the male emotions girls in Riley's mom's head? :applejackunsure:

3137736 Hmm, I never thought of that.

Because they're adults. They've learned to control their emotions. Riley is an 11 year old girl descending into her teens and her own emotions haven't fully developed to the point where she is in complete control of them. To borrow a quote from a TV Tropes discussion page:

"It's to show she's possibly still figuring her emotions out. Her emotions avatar seem to be in a default or natural state, while her parents' have been adapted to their own likeness (some of them seem to be wearing a wig or fake mustache more than being actually male or female). With time, maybe, she also will have emotions adequated to her own basic template(blonde hair, maybe?)"

3137793 Aha, awesome, plausible theory! :rainbowkiss:

3137796 [youtube=youtube.com/watch?v=9-19kMXEBw8]

You're making the assumption that Riley is a girl. Maybe she was "born with both" and her parents decided to raise her as a girl?

3137848 :pinkiegasp::trixieshiftright: Interesting! I also considered the emotions were divided up based on how masculine/feminine you are. Riley plays hockey, which is stereotypically masculine, so two of her emotions are masculine because she's a tomboy. (I have girl friends who play hockey, so I don't mean to offend anyone. :derpyderp2:)

Maybe she was a guy in her previous life, and her emotions haven't fully recovered from their reincarnation?

3138062 You and your conspiracy theories! :pinkiecrazy:

Because Riley's emotions are still a bit unstable. Remember in that first clip, when all the parents' emotions were communicating with each other and acting as a team, whereas Riley's emotions couldn't quite do that. Y'now what I mean?
