I thought they weren't making anymore of these, and that Luna was already taken?

Also, third person? nooooooo...

>>678519678519 The previous author for Luna left the collab, and this is the new official Luna story.

>>678519678519 Not quite. The mods made it so that only a limited number of writers could write for it, there would have to be spacing in the release schedule, and content restrictions. Then we sweetened the pot by self declaring that every new fic (and most of the old ones) would go through intense editing.

As to Luna, Bronius Maximus terminated his fic to go deal with real life stuff, so I got selected to take his place.

She spouted something about a super toilet, curled into a ball, and kept repeating “So. Much. Clogging.”

.......... I remember when that show used to be good.... sigh...

>>678608678608 Indeed, tis a shame. But hey, at least we have our memories

>>678612678612 Yes. And we stole Super Toilet from the set.

>>678612678612

Im loving this story more  and more every pargraph,keep it up and good luck:)

and I love your Avatar picture everytime I imagine Derpy doing this:

Yeah Rumsfeld

>>678614678614 Precisely! I'm going to toss in refs everywhere, as is my nature, so keep an eye out

Extra bonus though if anyone catches this reference.

>>678623678623 Thank you! :D And that vid brought many a lul from me, thank you squared

Here ya go!

what, no kid humanized luna for the cover art? For shame! haha

>>678932678932 It's so beautiful! Thank you

>>679609679609 To be honest I couldn't find any really good ones that didn't have severe NMM overtones.

I lol'd

Good job Bridge.

>>740822740822 Danke ^_^ Truth be told, I loled too

>>678519678519>>678608678608>>678623678623>>678932678932

It's baaaaaack

>>740822740822

Btw, did you get an update notification? Just curious

>>740838740838

I did

>>740890740890

Sweet :D I wasn't sure how the system would work with the resubmit, so I posted the blog. Glad to see it works without it

Barbie girl?! YOU MONSTER!

>>741074741074 I know right? Of all the songs Discord could sing, that is possibly the WORST POSSIBLE THING!

That pic...Just...HNNNNG

>>751077751077 Bahaha, you can thank Zyrian for that. I had a whole bunch of possibilities with Luna being classy and regal, but the second I saw those eyes, I knew that this was the one

Doctor who reference, F*** yeah! Just got a doctor whooves T-shirt as a late birthday present today, and am wearing it now.

Can't wait for more story.

Nice! I'm gonna read the next part!

>>764077764077 I brought my tardis hub into class one day. One guy prostrated himself on the floor and hailed me as king of the nerds. It was beautiful

Happy belated birthday!

>>764858764858 Glad you enjoyed :) I'll be working on it this week, should be out next week. Or next month. Possibly next century

So much awesome, so little story. Can't wait for more! Of the Ponyfall stories so far, this one and Australia are the best.

>>771534771534 Thank you! Glad you enjoy it so much :D Soooon. Soooooon

Wasn't there already a ponyfall for luna, except as a kid? Or am I thinking of something else, I haven't been keeping track much right now.

>>788141788141 There was, but Bronius Maximus quit the collab, and I was selected to take his place. It's still up, but he's not updating it (that I know of). I made her a pre-teen because honestly, having her as a child proved too hard a writing challenge.

>>788183788183 I'd prefer a luna thats around 17 or 18. close to my age for uh.....certain reasons

>>788189788189 So would I, for the same reasons. This makes that connection much more awkward though, as will soon be revealed. Awkward makes for delicious writing. Also, I seem to be very cruel to my characters...

>>788242788242 Join the club. I torture and put lots of angst in my characters :P or the ones that I make up on my own. I just seem to get a kick out of torturing them, it makes me laugh.......I'm a bit....manic.....psychotic......

>>788274788274 Its kind of fun. I had a serious breakthrough in therapy soon after the events of ponyfall would have taken place, so I'm writing it as divergent from that point. He/I would have gotten a lot more psychotic as time went on. The internal voice screwing with me in the fic is pretty much my life. It's a coping mechanism that I had. It all gets explained later in wonderful excruciating detail. I'm planning on doing a blog post where I forth wall break and apologize to him for what I'm about to do to him after the next chapter.

>>788330788330 We all got ways of coping with the insanity life throws at us. Let MLP: FIM make it all better :) I know it's done wonders for me, I've become less brooding about the world. Also gave me a great form of afterlife, REINCARNATION IN EQUESTRIA!!!

we require more of this silly nonsense

righ about...now

>>793658793658 *snaps his fingers to summon the eldrich powers of creation. Nothing happens*

>>793781793781what time is it over there man?

if not you're missing on A LOT man

>>814557814557 But of course. On a lard baked tortilla, with chicken avocado and christmas chile.... Annnd now I'm hungry again.

So... We gonna get an update at some point?

>>919715919715 Working on it. Jobs been killer though Good news is, I'm 600 words in and have it planned out. Bad news, I keep wiping out before writing.

Actually, thanks for asking. I'll go post a blog, it's been too long between updates not to.

BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Hahaha, oh man, I can't breathe! This is priceless, perfect! Please, do go on.

>>958359958359 Glad you're enjoying it! Next chapter should be ready sometime this week

>>958805958805

I am totally enjoying it. Particularly your unique and absolutely hilarious way of depicting the inner crazy (subconscious) in your character. It's dialogues, or in this case...monologues?, like that that really seal the deal for me.

>>958805958805 Was "frell" a Farscape reference, because if so then that right there is freaking awesome! Like nobody knows what that is, and it's like the best sci-fi series in history!

>>982818982818 Thank you! My editors tried to get me to leave those out, but I use frell, frig, and a few other sci-fi curses in everyday life. Indeed, it's a shame that Farscape is so obscure these days

>>958866958866 It's funny, it's more the voice of sanity, while I am my own inner crazy. I'm the opposite of Drae that way, both in and out of fic.

>>982864982864 Why does this sound rather close to the story of my life? #forevercrazy

>>982864982864 I actually forgot to mention that Silent Hill is like my biggest fear. I don't know why but I'm worried that I will one morning wake up in that forsaken place. Which is why I've actually trained myself to sleep for no more than four arnes(get it?) if I fall asleep at night. If the sun is up and I sleep I usually sleep for six arnes.

>>982872982872>>983031983031 You two are going to absolutely love chapter 4/5 when I get up to them. Not to be horrifically spoilery while equally enigmatic. but magical shenanigans and a trip down the rabbit hole are in store

Also heir, my town completely dies after 10 pm. I've got insomnia, so I end up walking around a lot, just waiting for the fog to fall. I carry a radio at all times And I prefer rels myself, much more stable when dealing with assorted timey wimey wibbly wobbly stuff.

It's different(In a good way).

>>983068983068 Dark time walks between the hours of 1 and 5 AM are the best. So long as you steer clear of the coke fiends and crack-heads. Potheads are alright though, of course I don't touch the stuff, but they're pretty fun to hang out with.

>>983068983068 Also listening to Children of the Night on youtube while reading this felt amazing.

Oh Celestia, the mental combat with his inner crazy made me laugh so hard the whole time.

I can't wait for the next update.

so muc win,

Hmmmm... like the dialogue but I cannot shake the feeling that this Josh is mentally ill. I mean his mind works like that of a robot! What's up with that? I kinda find his internal monologue very aggravating.

For some reason he keeps ordering himself what to do like his body is a space ship and he has two personalities or something. UUUUGRH! Does not compute

Image: http://mylittlefacewhen.com/media/f/img/mlfw717_131027961795.jpg

>>983807983807 I strive for such, and am glad I apparently succeed

>>10066141006614 Hehe, it's difficult to write for the crazy, but it's soooo worth it

>>10484021048402 Why thank you!

>>11150861115086 I'll be explaining his... issues, in chapter 4/5...ish. I reformatted the internal monologue to make it much more readable though (I was planning to do it when I finished the next chapter, but 100 likes made me decide to do it early). It's a bit difficult to write for, since it's how I think (You think it's confusing with two internal voices, imagine four or five intertwining thought processes ), so feel free to ask if there was something that wasn't clear.

>>11162271116227

By the way, I love those inner monologues, they are cool.

>>11162271116227 Well, one of the things for example is how  he keeps telling his subconsciousness to decrease pain by 300%, then this other voice replies it can't. Its like ordering your body to stop hurting when its in pain. I don't get it! How does he think he can control his bodily processes by shouting weird orders as if his brain was a computer that needs a Star Trek commander to operate it. Its really nuts! And it quite frankly makes me want to skip such nonsense!

>>11172171117217 Heheheheh. I'll spoil it a bit, just because I can, and the answer is so far in the future. Without highlighting the spoilers though, your assumption that he's not mentally all there is accurate. Spoiler's in grey below this:

He can't control his mind. He's desperately trying to control his body and mind because he feels like everything else in his life is out of control. To that end, he took a part (abstract concept of how the mind works, using parts that want different things to form the self) of his mind and gave it much more power and control than any part should have. It struggles to bring about whatever he tells it to, but fails most of the time. The only thing it succeeds in doing is giving him a sense of control over his life, while his body does whatever it was going to do. Side effects though are a major suppression of his emotions, bordering on absolute dissociation.

It's where I was mentally before three years of therapy.

WEEEEEEOOOOOOOO! Colon left parentheses left parentheses left parentheses left parentheses left parentheses left parentheses left parentheses!

Keep up the swag.

Ha, hes part computer

Awesome story dude. I like how he issues orders to himself like it's Star Trek or something. It really adds!

Keep up the swag.

>>11396041139604>>11225941122594

Thank you Mah swag stach ego has been stroked

Here it is! Finally I have my real life shenanigans fairly well together now, so I should be able to put these out more frequently. In the meantime, here's a blog saying what's going on with all this.

Major thanks to Xayph for editing this a ton. Regular thanks to Silverness, Cheesedeluxe, and Retsamoreh for editing the first half

Also, I screwed the etymology of my name up in a thousand different ways. Whats worse is, that's the exact conclusion I would have come to irl

YESSSS

Great chapter.

>>12867021286702 Glad you liked it!

....heh he heh

this is good mon

I  want to hug you for writing it, and I want to PUNCH you for taking so long

either way

GOOD JOB RASTA!

>>12867101286710 Danke! Next chapter shouldn't take anywhere near as long Rasta on my brother

>>12867271286727alright mon, see ya

YAY NEW CHAPTER!!! update soon?  

Brilliant, worth the wait.

but seriously poodles.

>>12870451287045 Indeed Ought to be within the month this time, instead of four mounths later

>>12873871287387 My aunt's nickname. As next chapter will show, she's a very eccentric lady

Well that was fun. Please, continue.

I was listening to "The Music of the NIght" before and during the reading.  I like it.  I like it a lot.    I also like the "KHAAAN" bit in the middle.

You should probably change your picture. It can be very deceptive, if you know what I mean.

Too bad this story is no longer a part of the Ponyfall series, but I like where this story is, going! Keep this story going!

>>12908501290850 On it :)

>>12931421293142 Have you seen the 2011 Royal Albert Hall production? Brilliant I highly reccommend it.

>>12958931295893 How so? Like alicorn/human hybrid status?

>>12965621296562 Salright, gives me the leaway I need to do what needs to be done with it. Glad you like it

>>13046021304602

No. I thought Luna's human form would be as old as the one in the picture, not as a child younger than the Crusaders.

>>13058841305884 ... She's 12/13 in my fic. The crusaders are 6-8 in FMPs

>>13060831306083

Well, you didn't say so in Chapter 2.

>>13064971306497 I said she looked between 10 and 15 in one, and that she was about five years below human maturity (assuming 18 as the point of reference)

>>13065241306524

OH, okay. So... who's writing the Luna Ponyfall story?

>>13066131306613 Dunno. Selections are still in progress. Slorg just posted his reasons for the delays in the collab's blog, might want to go check to keep updated.

>>13066201306620

Why was your story removed, anyway?

>>13066271306627 Assorted shenanigans involving time, priorities and creative differences.

>>13066841306684

Okay.

Can't wait for the mysterious wizard Poodles to be revealed! Awesome chapter dude.

>>14190671419067 Danke :) She is indeed the greatest of earthern wizards

>>13066271306627 Yeah we have no problems with Bridgebrain or anything. He just wanted to do some things that we felt wouldn't fit in the overall story we were trying to tell. By releasing him, it frees us up to move on, and allows him the freedom to do with his story as he sees fit. Pretty much a win-win.

Shame you stopped updating. It was a nice a story
