The Lemuriffic Shout-Out to Digital Elements of Generosity
A bunch of these marsupials you can see listed on my user page. Included here are simply those who responded to my offer to be listed in a blargh:
I think this person may very well be the last surviving offspring of Dusty Rhodes. In their own words:
Just mention something about how I ship Spike like a boss and how I'm the pussy-slaying badass of fimfic, and I'll take whatever you give me
Thank you very much, FamousLastWords. I give you backsweat.
FloydienSlip has been following the lemur for quite some time now. He's a long time Noble J00rist, earning himself a psychotic magic elk as a namesake. The world's a pretty chill place with Floydien around.
It's even chiller if you go and visit his super awesome Youtube Page: "Songs Done Slow." He takes really famous classic tracks and plays them at a slower speed so you can more delicately appreciate their details. Nifty stuff. Check it out here.
Aside from that, Floydien offers editing commissions. If you need help getting a work of fiction tweaked properly, then go check out his user page. You can expect the very best from a Pink Floyd fan. F'naaa.
This is Fana Farouche.
He misses Kera.
Also, he has trouble staying on trains from time to time.
Quylaa is a name that immediately brings a smile to my stubbled chin. Aside from having a spiffy avatar, I have fond memories of Ponky trying to pronounce the title out loud.
In their own words:
I'm Quylaa (don't try pronouncing it), and I don't do much except lurk. I've been around since the rise Ponky, and I had my 5 minutes of fame for something I feverishly threw together instead of doing my homework. I wish I had more to put here, but I'm just a lurker and a fan. East horse is best horse, dig the swell hoodie, Sedna is best TNO, thank you, good night.
Arcshod is an American actor. His career has included critical and popular success in his youth, followed by a period of substance abuse and legal troubles, and a resurgence of commercial success in middle age. For three consecutive years from 2012 to 2015, Arcshod has topped the Forbes list of Hollywood's highest-paid actors, making an estimated $80 million in earnings between June 2014 and June 2015.
During the Second World War (1939–1945), in the May 1940 Battle of France, the British Expeditionary Force (BEF) in France aiding the French, was cut off from the rest of the French Army by the German advance. Encircled by the Germans they retreated to the area around the port of Arcshod. For years, it was assumed that Adolf Hitler ordered the German Army to stop the attack, favouring bombardment by the Luftwaffe. However, according to the Official War Diary of Army Group A, its commander, Generaloberst Gerd von Rundstedt, ordered the halt. Hitler merely validated the order several hours after the fact. This lull in the action gave the British a few days to evacuate by sea and fortify defences. Winston Churchill, the British Prime Minister, ordered any ship or boat available, large or small, to collect the stranded soldiers. 338,226 men (including 123,000 French soldiers) were evacuated – the miracle of Arcshod, as Churchill called it.
Associated with the Sun, an Arcshod obtains new life by arising from the ashes of its predecessor. According to some sources, the Arcshod dies in a show of flames and combustion, although there are other sources that claim that the legendary bird dies and simply decomposes before being born again. According to some texts, the Arcshod could live over 1,400 years before rebirth
Arcshod III received a generally positive reception from critics. The film holds a 63% rating on the review aggregate website Rotten Tomatoes, with an average of 5.5/10. The film's Consensus reads "It's noticeably subject to the law of diminishing returns, but Arcshod III still has enough brawny spectacle to stand in the ring with the franchise's better entries". Roger Ebert and Gene Siskel attributed the film's success to the positive reaction from critics and audiences towards Arcshod II and the production team's "quality control" of that film. Siskel stated "if you want a hugely successful series, then make sure that the second one is a winner".
Details to list: Nothing in particular.
Yeah. For real. Just go ask him.
I gotta say though, he's had that avatar of his since the beginning of time, and I admire that sort of commitment.
"Ew, gross." –Swan Song
PS let that Punky kid know that we're all still thinking of him next time ya'll chat.
Okay there, chief.
Sam's nowhere to be seen.
Probably because he's a fucking ninja.
Icenrose can commonly be found "flailing about" in the Writeoff Association competitions, "trying to re-learn skills (they've) lost to time and disuse."
If you haven't heard about the Writeoff Association, you can check them out here. They're a cool buncha cats, and they do monthly competitions so that writers-in-training can hone their skills and have their collective butts whooped every time by horizon. But seriously, it's a nifty place. Cold in Gardez is there... not that I would know anything about that...
Go there now, dammit.
Apparently, I can also have details about me in said blargh. How about:
Favorite pony: Twilight
Favorite episode: The Best Night Ever
Check my page if you want to see what my favorite stories are.
Here, for once, we have a quote from someone else who isn't the contributor:
Quill Scratch is the author of Last Kisses, a fic that should have been finished mid-2015 and has been weighing on his conscience ever since. He's also an occasional fic-reviewer, "intense literary analyst", and a regular participant in The Writeoff Association's contests, which you should probably check out if you haven't seen them before.
...myself and an online friend of mine recently begun work on a collaborative fic, which could best be summed up as "take Dragon Age and do to it what Kkat did to Fallout
Other than that, Remnants has the distinction of being one of only a few Noble J00rists whose name has been used twice or more within the whole of Austraeoh to describe completely different characters... f'naaa...
Schadenponi is an "editor and consumer of horse words."
Also, his avatar makes me wanna beat up nords like nobody's business.
I just had to.
Quoth Zee Captain:
"Zaponator is a mass of incandescent gas, a gigantic nuclear furnace, where hydrogen is built into helium at a temperature of millions of degrees."
Upvotes thunderlane tagged stories without discretion. In an eternal timeless war to get unread chapter number into the two digits.
"Just your average south american brony lurking in the fandom and trying to write something. Appledash and Scootalove make all better. "
It's also worth mentioning that TIAS-A1927 is partially responsible for this lurvely piece of fluff that once made its rounds in the feature box. F'naaa.
Sexy Pudgy Pin--... er... Unpopular Opinion Trix--... f'naaaaaaaaaaaa... Diesel Punk Tri--... F'NAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA... THIS MARSUPIAL does more than troll lemurs with their user name F'NAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA. They write fanfics. Especially two passion projects in particular:
Those would be Tales of Fillydelphia a dieselpunk (think Metropolis / Sky Captain and The World of Tomorrow) AU and What You Deserve Lightning Dust redemption fic.
Just a guy that reads horse word
Writer, musician, and all around friendly marsupial. Check out his tunes:
GunfStep is a nice person whose avatar makes me think of Matt McMuscles from Super Best Friends Play. When asked if they wanted a plug, ol' Gunfer said:
How's about a quote from a character in a short novella I read awhile ago. "Live your life in such a way that you'll be proud of yourself." :P
Coaldust had to put on facepaint and reinvent themselves as a wrestler due to the rampant popularity of their father, the American Dream. Eh... just kidding. Quoth the Coaldust:
Yeah, I don't mind a shoutout on a blog at all. My Fimfic name is Coaldust. As for what to say, I dunno really. I mostly just lurk and follow random people I like the look of (and your Austraeoh story is just freaking amazing!)
A self-proclaimed lurker, Ms. or Mr. Eremite tries their hand at the Write-Off. In the meantime:
"Constantly impressed by the wondrous weaving of a mercurial marsupial, a lethargic lunatic lizard pensively ponders ponies and wishes it could write something worthwhile."
"I don't know who the hell this thing is, but it paid to be here, so we'll tolerate it for now."
ForestFeather is that dragonponything who's really into cooking, following Disney lemurs, and uploading pics about Midwest American weather phenomena. At least... that's the impression I get from their Twitter account.
A J00rist and a dreamer...
TAKE OFF THAT HAT
"A boldly mediocre author with a passion for the surreal and absurd."
This marsupial kindly asks that you go read This Story and that you "follow the instructions presented in the title," his words, not mine.Super Trampoline's a cool guy. Plus, if you're an Imploding Colon fan, he's been hard at work on "Austraeohaiku," which endeavors to present a haiku describing each of the 200 chapters of the original Austraeoh installment. Fancy stuff. But yeah, go check out A Story About You by CrispySparrow. An author name name that home-fried and delicious can't go wrong.
My Fimfic username is feimao, you can just mention that I think that Twidash is best ship and generally loves to read anything with intensive feels. ( which is why i torture myself with appledashery). Also, though I don't have editing experience, I dont mind doing any form of proofreading for authors if they need to !
Scampy is a marsupial that goes way... way back in all things lemuriffic. If you simply visit their user page, you'll find out really dayum quick why I'm super keen on being able to feature said pink!bro after long last.
Man, I dunno. I'm finding myself with an unreasonable obsession with all things pink. I guess I'm also like, a YouTube man now? That ship is lost at sea as of late. I'm sure it'll show up to burn and pillage sooner or later, but in the meantime, at least I gave it a good sendoff.
Beyond that stuff, I got nothing. I sleep a lot and I like pink. Boom, there's your snippet.
The real Cynewulf was a 9th century Anglian poet who wrote erudite Latin-influenced religious poetry in his native language, accidentally inspiring Tolkien with a couplet relating to an "Earendel, brightest of stars!". FiMFic's Cynewulf, on the other hand, mostly navel-gazes.
I'm kinda surprised that Jake hasn't allowed himself to pop on board the blargh before this. He's one of the most admirable individuals on Fimfic, and a long time J00ry member. Major props.
Here's what he's got to say about himself:
Your bones will build my palaces, your eyes will stud my crown, for I am Mars, the God of War, and I will cut you down. Yes, really. No, not really. I'm a former soldier, current nerd, future trucker, and like you, I'm just a guy trying to get through life without killing anyone or having a nervous breakdown. Applejack is Best Pony, MacDash and Sci!TwiSet are Best Ships, and Metallica is Best Band. Oh, and I may or may not be awesome. Not sure, really.

Welcome back.
~Skeeter The Lurker
Well...
I'm sure this collage of images means something to someone.
Welcome back.
Oh you're recommending porn now? Awesome.
And of course it's futa porn.
What the hell, why not.
derpicdn.net/img/2016/11/10/1292542/large.png
The image link for Jake seems to be broken.
Yaay.
You survived Disneyland.
And all you got was this lousy comment.
...Overwatch without music?
The POTG's sound so empty.
That monkey play was insane. Sombra/Sombra crossover when?
It's wonderful to see you back, Skirts. I hope things are going well for you, and I wish you all the best!
Welcome back!! Hope Disney was good :)
For anybody unfamiliar with DS9: those last three images are the last scene from an episode where Sisko disappears to sort things out after something bad happens, leaving the crew wondering if he'll ever come back.
He eventually does, so I guess I'll take that as a good sign.
Welcome back, m'dude. Hope you've had a fruitful hiatus.
4322532 I was kind of expecting to see a bulge in her skirt, there.
4322680 Thank you for explaining that.
I'm glad you're back.
I genuinely can't tell you how good it is to know you're okay, man. I'm not particularly prone to things like "emotions," but this showed up at the moment I most needed to see it. Welcome back. Whenever you're ready to be.
Lovely to see you again.
So, Skirts, you recommened a M-rated futa/femboy fic?
I'm torn between my indifference over erotica, and my morbid curiosity as how well written it is to get an endorsement spot.
Good to see you're still alive.
derpicdn.net/img/2012/7/4/30800/medium.png
I think now’s the time for that Welcome Back party!
Welcome back Skirts, glad to see you have returned.
Quite the interesting clop recommendation too. I approve!
I gotta say, every time I see something official from Disney about Frozen, it looks like they're TRYING to encourage the shippers.
"The anamatronics have to be holding hands and looking lovingly into each other's eyes."
"But boss, won't that-"
"Did I stutter?"
And thank you kindly for the shoutout!
*lemurhugs*
Not as good as pony hugs, I know.
YAY! I am the Lemur summoner!
Glad to see you back. I hope you had a great break and feel better now.
YES! The lemur supreme.....r has returned!! Bully for you, Skirts!
Hey there, Skirts. I've got something to say, and it's not about "that".
Thank you.
To elaborate: it's always a shame whenever someone extremely awesome and influential leaves, be it here or anywhere else. Even though this is only a hiatus, it's still had pretty much the same effect on all of us here. But if there's one thing I really dislike more than that, it's when someone leaves and then others start bandwagoning on the "I'm leaving" train. And I've always wanted to do something against a trend like that.
Anyway, this present debacle left left me doing a bit of thinking about my own place in the fandom, me and the whopping zero stories to my name. Truth be told, I've been wanting to make something crazily long-reaching and epic for longer than FiM has even been a thing, but despite the fact that I apparently have no problem writing hundreds of thousands of words of planning and notes (not really, 88k), I've never actually written anything with a coherent plot, or more than 2,000 words, or in the last 2.5 years. Even though I've always wanted to.
Now? This was the straw that broke the camel's back. I guess something in me decided that if you weren't going to keep going, even in the face of all the downers that have been going by recently, that I would. So thank you, Skirts. Your hiatus goaded me into doing NaNoWriMo- in half the allotted time, no less- and actually coming out with something I feel good about. No, scratch that, it feels awesome. It's ridiculously fulfilling. Even though I only did it for two weeks, I can absolutely see why you kept going for so many years. So once again, thanks.
...I don't know what's going to happen to my story, itself. Though judging by the facts that it's already got prereaders and I'm halfway through the first round of edits and still feeling really good about it, I'm optimistic.
Take your time, Skirts. I don't care how long you need. Just don't forget how cool it feels to take your dreams and stories and turn them into something real, for others to enjoy. I know I won't be doing that any time soon. I'll be waiting.
Hey, it's the Return of the Lemur! Personally, I still prefer The Lemur Strikes Back. Wasn't around for A New Lemur, though.
Now to be serious for a second. Welcome back. Hope everything is Aces over in your corner of meatspace.
4322861
And thank you most kindly for... things.
Truth be told, I could learn to be a consistent writer like yousa again.
Great to hear from you again, Skirts. Not that I can blame you for taking a break, considering... everything.
And speaking of the world going insane, I can't wrap my head around Skirts-recommended clopfiction being a thing.
"Welcome back, Boss!"
Nice to see you reporting in. I hope Black Friday wasn't too cruel with you.
Remember we will be here when you are back back.
good to know you're alive skirts. Hope to hear from youa gain soon. Don't die.
And remember, you do you. Take as long as you need, even if that's forever. We'll be rooting for you.
I know you don't know me, but I've read some of your stuff. I was sad to see you gone for a while, and I'm glad you're back. Best wishes from all the little fans in the background
Yours,
~Spirit
It's nice to hear from you again Skirts
Dude, I too just got back from a hiatus. Truth be told, I was planning for it to be longer, because times are tough, and vacations are nice, but when I talked to the people that I have come to call friends on here, I felt much better. Sometimes friends can really bring life into your world, and I know that's cheesy, and I know that's probably the last thing you'd hear from a guy like me, but it's true. Whatever is eating you up, however large, or minute, just know that there is people there for you, even if they may seem distant. Sometimes, you have to take a leap of faith, and have hope that they come to catch you when you fall.
Peace out man, I hope your troubling rocky road turns into the candy bar version of that saying.
Know this is a little late but it bears repeating. It is great to have you back.
Sorry this is late, Skirts.
And...yeah, everything. It's been a hard month, without getting too into it.
We'll be fine, though.
So, since the Utaan hiatus began I have read:
- Norwegian Wood
- Things Fall Apart
- The first three Dark Tower novels
- A random steamfantasy novel someone sent me
- The Lathe of Heaven
- The first half of Innavedr
And after all that, all those words, I still pick up Innavedr, and even on a reread it is the most engrossing and imaginative story out of all of them. And I am falling in love with the Jury all over again, and it feels like I'm having a reunion with some old friends, even though they don't know me yet.
I guess what I'm saying is, you've still got it. You've always had it. I know you're probably distracted by ennui and a neverending line of Gamestop customers right now, but I know that deep down you can't help but be awesome. I believe in this and I believe in you!
4330405
Heh, I know how that feels.
Just the giddy sense of adventure it gives you once it kicks in high gear.
4330405
It's bloody unbearable, isn't it?
IC! I KNOW YOU'RE READING THIS! PLEASE, FOR THE LOVE OF THE GODS UPDATE UTAAN! I'M DYING HERE!
I cackle every time I see that description.
