    No Chapter For Element of Balance This Week

    Unfortunately I am somewhat lacking my writing ability this week for some reason (to caught up in video games this week) :twilightsheepish:. I haven't been able to complete my Star Wars chapter that I usually try to have out by Wednesday. Same thing happened a couple weeks ago though it was my Star Wars chapter that I skipped. Hopefully the next few weeks I'll be able to focus more on writing and

    Taking this week off

    Okay, so I hit a major milestone with the recent chapter of Element of Balance. So I think now is probably a fair time to take a little break and do some editing on that and my other fanfic. So, no new chapter this week. But I'll back next one for sure. I know last blog post I said I fixed the mistake with Steel Gold's name being changed to Gold Steel, but I actually like the sound of that better

    Steel and Gold Mix up

    Okay so I had a little mix up with my unicorn thief character's name these past couple weeks that I just became aware of. I had Steel Gold set as the name in the chapters of Element of Balance, but it seems I switched to Gold Steel in the last two chapters where finally gets caught. Well I just edited the last two chapters to have it be Steel Gold. He does steal gold after all. But Gold Steel

    Where to go now

    Okay, so the next canon section of Element of Balance will be Winter Wrap Up. But first we're gonna need quite a few original chapters to cover the space between that. I don't think we really need a Nightmare Night, though that could be fun I suppose bit we'd have to not have Luna in this one. That can wait till next season/year with Luna Eclipsed. What would be a costume for Fire? Maybe a lion

    Call of the Cutie Alternate Version

    Okay so for those of you who have been keeping up with Element of Balance, I'm going to be doing an alternate version of Call of the Cutie in which the CMC's already know each other and are already best friends. This avoids the contradiction in canon which deviates from the premiere episode where they are shown hugging each other in fright at the sight of Nightmare Moon.

A Happier Ending is Possible · 5:56pm Nov 9th, 2019

Thanks to all the people who have liked my Passing On Together Story. I'm glad to have provided a better alternative for those of you who don't want Twilight to outlive her friends. I hope you will all pitch in and spread the word that it doesn't have to be that way if you want it to. I've comforted quite a few people who have been despairing about it online and am proud of that. I will continue to do so, but I need your help to do so. The more of us that spread the message that it was left up to the fans to decide what happens after this, the better.


I will likely be writing a couple more stories on here after all. Thanks again and hope you will like them.

No problem. I am putting it in my headcanon, to ease all concerns of both Twilight outliving her friends, and Discord and Spike outliving Fluttershy and Twilight. I'll probably headcanon the Tree or something does something similar with the Young Six, that was on my mind for a bit too.

Also I like the addition of the real Grogar in there.

I have helped someone else feel better about this by giving him so many alternatives to it including this story. Not sure which he's going by but he says he's not feeling depressed about it anymore.

Good. I know the finale really hit hard in this regard. But we can make it better together.

I shall do the same by writing more oneshots. Happy Twiggy is best Twiggy. :D

Good luck. I've thought about making a midquel to my story as well taking place after Celestia and Luna's funeral up to the point of Luster's ascension to Alicorn. Maybe a sequel too where she teaches a student of her own and tells the history of Twilight and her friends after they are gone. I've seen you on YouTube as well spreading the word, good job! Let's all work to make our fellow fans happy and let them know we can make our own happy ending.

Thanks I try. Some people though are kinda stuck on "she'll outlive her friends" and I sadly can't get a word in edgewise. In those cases I just try to move past them, can't help people who want to be depressed.

Yeah. It's too bad so many people want it. It's like we're a minority. Ah well, I've spoken with a lot people I find on YouTube who are saddened by it and have told them it's up to them what happens after the ending. I must have told at least 30 or forty people by now. Well, we do what we can. Like you said, cant help people that want her to outlive her friends, but we can help those that dont.
