You know he could just answer " you match certain myths and legends from my world". It's true while not giving out info he may not want to reveal.

7416503 He was kinda excited meeting characters from a show he likes and didn't know how to filter his mouth properly. That and he's apparently an idiot :rainbowlaugh:

That was nice what he said to Luna at the end there. Hope to read more soon.

7435052 And you will! In about 2-3 days. Promise!

Time for the Q&A!

7450414 I would be there's only a few chapters out. I'll do one at 10 chapters. One about me and Devan.

7450414 And I'm an idiot for not realizing you were talking about the fic.. Heh, that goes to show that I make things up as I go. Oh well. Yes it will happen next chapter :rainbowwild:

7453123
I wouldn't say that. I'm glade that your having a Q&A after ten or so chaps in. Gives me something ta look forward to. Also can't wait for the next chapter dude.

Whew. Glad they took that more easily than I thought they would. Our main man got a little snippy at the end there but who could blame him. He's had a rough night.

He can learn magic. Huh... But how fast can he learn it. After all Dev is going from I need more mana to saying something like Lightning bolt! It'll probably take time to learn any magic he might come across. Or he'll learn it quickly because of how excited he was about finding out he can use it. And then probs getting dog piled from the guards. Or is it pony piled? Great chapter dude keep them coming. :)

The colour changes and shifts from bold to plain are too frequent, and a touch disorienting because of it.

Huh...Well there's a story in the next chapter.

7471801 Thanks for your input. I'll be sure just to change colors then.

General prose for actions and descriptions tends to be plain text, thoughts tend to be italics if they're not delimited by single quotes 'like this' and color changing tends to not be done very often due to a tradition of colored ink being more expensive. For example, many Bibles use red text for direct quotes from Jesus.

Thoughts swirled in my head. 'I can use magic? Is that even possible?'

"Are you sure, Princess?" I asked.

Color changing in text tends to come off as gimmicky and amateurish, and folks who are color blind may not be able to appreciate the aesthetic decision.

7472382 I tried using Italics in other things I've worked on. People tend to complain more on that than colored text. I'll think about it though.

Geeze lady take it easy. Welp time to go to the modest little town.

i think my alinment whuld probably be air, fire and maybe darkness not sure defenitly fire thow

7508261 The show does make it look modest doesn't it? I wonder if it really is.

7509184 Mine would be Earth and Fire most likely. That'd be fun, making lava and magma.

So, looks like I'll be getting out the next chapter next week for anyone that is curious. Ran into some personal issues. Taking my time.

Cadance is not going to be happy with Celestia putting a limitation on Love.

Wow, Celestia is kind of a controlling bitch here. I understand being a protective sovereign but he should start looking for an exit soon, she has zero respect for him as a sapient being. He is powerless and has committed no crime, other than not being a pony, and she is constantly threatening him with inprisonment except when it benefits her, and imposes restrictions on him that no one else has? Yeah that's bullshit. I understand him going along with it for now while she holds all the cards but he needs to get out of there or change the balance here somewhat.

Wonder how the EOH would feel knowing she wants to control there lives to this degree?

There is a glowing dickbutt on the parchment.

*dejected sigh* a perfect opportunity missed.
There is a single better meme/reference that would have been better and it can NEVER be used enough.

7609393 And one day perhaps it will make itself known

7609611 It IS known.
You're just not thinking right.
Think with portals.

how did you know I was royalty if you’re from another world?

Simply. Pinkie blurted it out in:

AND I got to meet TWO royal sisters?

7611780 How did he know THEY were the royal sisters?

7611884 Thank ya. See you again in about 2-3 days then.

Well this should be entertaining.:pinkiehappy:

This could take awhile. The training his magic I mean. Here's hoping our main man stays DETERMINED!

Crap, Obsidian is a changeling. This should be interesting.

The fuck Jackie?! :flutterrage:

If Devan Whitney was voiced, what would he sound like?

7799348 Unfortunately I haven't decided that yet... But let's go with a slightly higher pitched Big Mac but without the accent. So deep, but not THAT deep.

7580161 Kind of sours the setting, doesn't it?

Why do so many fics have to make her like that?

7905909 Mostly cause that'd be the most realistic choice... And honestly, if I had a whole country I watched grow over the past who knows how long.. Pretty sure I'd get controlling really quick in order to stop corruption or evil.

i don't understand. he's had one lesson from what i can tell, why doe obsidian say one week?

or, did one week pass nd you mixed up the chronology? He woke up the next day after lesson 1, and was fine but obsidian says 1 week. maybe she kept him asleep for a week?

7919854 It has been one week for him by this point in terms of training. I didn't think putting in each day of him getting up, doing some exercise, going to Rarity and lifting a string for some odd hours would be entertaining. Perhaps I should've put that it's been one week since his first lesson with Rarity, sorry about that.

7924335 it would clear some confusion, cause it goes from day one, to waking up a week later, but all we see is him waking up, and its almost as if he healed over night. you don't have to do every day. but a summary of sorts, inner monologue maybe?

7924449 He did heal overnight. The week happened before he arrived home that night and had to be healed.

7924530 hmm.. was it the recovery montage? i have a few things i edit, and other stories, so im sorry if i completely blanked on that

Not long enough chapter. I don't feel sated.

7942665 Soon my young one, soon.

What was up with Rarity when our boy talked about his guard at that moment? Highly suspicious.
