    I think my job is trying to give me PTSD.

    I was awoken by a phone call this morning. Work asked me to come in, as things were crazy. I did so, was there from around 9:30 AM to 6PM. Worked without a lunch break, I might add.

    The Moral Event Horizon.

    Gonna discuss another trope today in relation to the Quiververse. In this case, it's the Moral Event Horizon. In simple terms, this is the point a character passes that forever marks them as EVIL and potentially irredeemable. TVTropes itself lists a few examples from FiM, and I won't repeat them here...though I will say that

    It never ends. It just...never...ends...

    So work decided to throw another curve ball at me. My supervisor has been transferred to another store. That means that I've had six supervisors in my department across six years, and it could take weeks, maybe even months, for us to get a new one. Which means I'm going to continue to be worked to death.

    So, I'm writing again.

    It's not much, but I got some writing done today. Now, be warned, it's going to be a very long time before I do anything related to the Quiververse again, but I'm hoping that time frame will be measured in months rather than a year.

    Still, at least I'm making some progress.

    A question to my readers.

    When I started serious work on the Quiververse, I made myself a promise. That promise was thus, to do the best I can to use whatever characters appear in a story to the best of my ability. I like to think I've done that, as various canon characters are reasonably consistent with their portrayals in the show (and arguably are undergoing development, though that's up to the reader), and my OCs have

Getting there as best I can. · 3:00am Aug 15th, 2021

I'm glad to say that I've gotten a little bit more done on the next chapter for Tales from a Double Date. It's not nearly as much as I'd like, and my creative difficulties are forcing me to leapfrog a bit here and there, but work is getting done.

Life is still giving me more grief than I'd like. Cookie's operation was successful, but she's still got over a week before she can get her stitches out and get her cone off, and she's got medicine to take until then that she's being finicky over. Work's starting to ramp up, and I've run into an unforeseen delay in my attempt to deal with the housemate's TV viewing habits, but I'm doing my best to keep going. I just hope that Tuesday and this coming Saturday are as productive as today was, if not more.

Here's hoping, Echo. :pinkiesmile:

And, as always, you take care of yourself first and foremost.

I'm doing my best to do exactly that, but it's hard when other people are doing so much to tear away at me.
