    How Many Times Does Trixie Actually Say "I"?

    One of Trixie's best-known traits in the fandom is that she speaks in the third person all the time. But does she really? Turns out, no one has ever counted the times she says "I." Until now...

    Hat Man Reviews: "Haze" by Bandy!

    Haze is a story that is filled with big ideas: Cloud empires. Flying earth ponies. Ancient religions. Superpower-inducing fungi. Unfortunately, much like the mushroom-munching ponies in this story, this story might be biting off more than it can handle…

"The Iron Horse" (slightly-late) Holiday Special is up! · 1:32pm Dec 26th, 2015

So, yeah, I meant for the story to go up ON Christmas, but it seems a lot of story approvers were celebrating the holiday as well and it got a little delayed. :twilightsheepish: Oh well! Ladies and Gents, for your reading pleasure and submitted for your approval at the link below...

The Iron Ho-Ho-Horse: Everything's Merrier With Robots!

Festive Robot in Snow

The story doesn't really fit into the main story anywhere, so rather than have it be another non-canon tale interjected into the main narrative, I decided to just keep it separate. The story is all about Turing Test learning of Hearth's Warming Day and seeking a present for Twilight Sparkle and Spike.

It comes with a regular dose of things you've come to expect from the main series: some feels, some cuteness, a few reference jokes, as well as a few other surprises.

I wanted to put this up as a way of saying thank you to all the "Iron Horse" fans out there who've helped support the story so far. I'm very grateful to all the folks who've faved, commented, and followed. It really makes me happy to know my work is appreciated. :twilightsmile:
