I write stories, just like most people here... I handle things in unorthodox ways with varying success. My stories might reflect that.

It's time for Discord's weekly visit to Fluttershy's a day after the events of the episode "Bats!". So unknown to everypony, Fluttershy still will forcibly transform into FlutterBat every night. Discord takes it well, he can even tame the beast, much to Fluttershy's and everypony else's relief.

In no relation with the EQD's Writers Training Grounds #1 thingy that has been going on.

Even though it was kind of hard to read, I liked the wackiness of it.

I actually have a better FlutterBat story premise, thanks to one guy. It's about a young FlutterBat being adopted by the Apples. It's better than it sounds. Should I do it in the future?

Yes, you should do it. If fact, you should do it now instead of waiting for an eventual future.

3715390 I have a backlog of about twenty more fun ideas. It's hard to pick a priority.

That was fantastically hard to read, to the point where I gave up. There's no colour of background where that shade of grey you used shows up well, it either becomes exactly the same as the rest oft he white text or just vanishes entirely.
As for yellow... It just hurts the eyes.
Now that's blunt, but honestly do you want it sugar coated? This isn't a script, you don't need some gimmick to distinguish speakers.
I'd like to read to this story, because the premise sounds interesting, but I genuinely can't strain my eyes enough to dredge up the words.
Wow I sound like a plot head. I'm really sorry about that, but it was just that bad.

3716739 I'm not insulted in anyway, it's a legitimate criticism. I know I don't colour coded text, I just wanted to do something different. If one more person criticizes that aspect I'll change it for everyone's benefit.

3715393 Outch! Thats a LOT of stories to write. Good luck!

3716756 id also say that maybe just maybe you should change the colour of the text I already have bad eye sight and I couldn't see the text at all against the white backdrop. (really at first I thought half the story was missing)

3720005 Thanks.


3720242 I don't have that problem. Sure the yellow is bright, but not that bright. Fine I'll change it, with the author's notes saying how it used to be.

3720242>>3714795 3716739 The color font is "Fixed" so it should be readable now. I personally didn't see the problem, personally. Redundancy.

3720590 i was actualy talking about the gray not the yellow.

3720957 That was highly visible too. Maybe it was your computer settings.

Must be mine too....hummm, quite the coinkidink there. And I'd tried every background setting there is....

I enjoyed that. It had a good fun rhythm to it. It could stand to be pre-read though, just a few mistakes.
I'm glad I got to read it.

3721244 It was 4:00 A.M.
I was too tired to pre-read. And I like the comments and faves to come over night, that way I won't get distracted by the info thingy in the corner.

Oops I left this story on incomplete the whole time.

Firebirdabirdoffire, yet another great story. May I suggest you use discord in your stories more often.

3749184 May I direct you to Foal adventures.? I've written a few chapters of it. Most of them have Discord.
Specifically The Puny Pony Pirates of the Luna Sea! arch and a Blueblood Carol. It kinda late in, and there were three prequels before it.

(Does this count as shameless plugin?)

3749196 Nnope:eeyup:. Thanks for the suggestion I’ll give it a read:pinkiehappy:.

twas interesting. not great, but not bad at all.
Careful with editing though, I noticed a few misplaced quotation marks.

How wacky and enjoyable.

Wow that was a pretty long night they had. What was Luna being lazy or something? This was a funny story.

All of the type is the same color to me: black. It could just be the mobile mode, though...

It is parody, I know. And it was good, but...
Fluttershy does not behave in this way, I mean that "Ohmygosh!". Discord was good, but Flutter maybe too energetic

5906368 Wouldn't you say something similar if you found out you're still a monster after a terrible day?

5919877 You may disagree with me, but in my opinion when you wrine a story (parody, romance, horror etc.) in existing world (like all Equestria), and you white an adventure about existing character (like Fluttershy and Discord) you must obey the laws of that world including personal characters. Than you must think not "how I would react?" but "how she/he would react?". Than, I think in this situation, Fluttershy wouldn't react like you show. But this only my opinion.

5919903 Maybe. I always write character reactions from the character perspective. But I also don't stuff as seriously.
