Next up, another guest chapter from Ponibius for Tales From the Phoenix Empire. Expect to see lots of Twilight, Cadance, Strumming, and a dragon.
In this chapter, we get to see more of Rarity in action. I think she might be one of my favorite PoVs to work from. It's just a lot of fun to see the world through her eyes. Also, I'm quite fond of the antagonist I'm tossing her up against: he might wind up as another one of those characters whose main universe counterpart shows up some day.
I also might add another pre-reader to my group, since a couple of them have been a bit busy lately.
In the latest chapter of tales from our semi-dystopia we have Sunset, Rarity, and Sunbeam, plus a little bit of Lyra. Also some old mistakes coming back to haunt the Empress.
Let the wild speculation begin.
To let folks know what to expect, we're getting Sunbeam's PoV. And six special ponies coming together.
Prepare for maximum Derp in this guest chapter by Comma-Kazie. Also expect buffalo and Braeburn.
Semi-relatedly, the Derpy/Braeburn ship would be DerpBurn. This seems like a very appropriate name for a Derpy ship.
I'm going to be on vacation for the next week or so, and thus I'm handing out some extra material out of my backlog to the pre-readers.
In this installment: Fluttershy in the Phoenix Empire, allowing me to finally get that achievement for PoVing all of the Mane 6. Granted, Pinkie only got one scene...
So that's a thing.
Our Guest Tale this time comes from Ponibius, and will (naturally) feature Twilight. Performing SCIENCE! And magic. And magical science.
Also, Dresden Rocks needs some cover art. Harry and Sunset going up against the Sirens should be fun.
I am really looking forward to seeing how this one is received.
So we have a double dose of Tales incoming, with my own previously mentioned Applejack fic, plus a Rainbow Dash story from my good writing buddy Trinary. Fun times ahead.
As mentioned in the last blog, I have a Rarity story up next in the Tales series. I really need to write Rarity more often, because I have way too much fun every time I do.
In other news, my writing buddies Trinary and Comma-Kazie are both planning to do guest chapters for Tales at some undefined point in the future, covering Rainbow Dash and Derpy's roles in the AU.
So, time for some updates on what's coming next.
First, obviously, is Tales: Love and Tolerance. This one-off will give something interesting with Cadance's PoV as she has to deal with all the Sparkles. Expect to see Twilight hitting a critical mass of adorkable, an epically bratty little sister, and Cadance dueling wits with Sunbeam.
After that, we'll get another helping of Tales, this time with Rarity as the etiquette teacher at the Harshwhinny Preperatory Academy for Young Mares.
