Silent Bob


For the winds of kovator beeya!

Source

When Rainbow Dash was a young filly, she enjoyed a strange, but powerful connection to a supposedly legendary being from a distant land, one only achieved in slumber. Unfortunately, as time marched on and the two grew into stronger individuals, the link, in turn, began to grow weaker, eventually disappearing entirely. Of course though, nothing like that is truly lost forever. Now, with both fully grown and fighting on distant battlefields, the connection is reemerging when both need it most. With it, Rainbow Dash will soon learn of a dark conspiracy that will put her element to the test and the fate of everything in her hooves.

Heyo, just want to thank Torchwood, the most depressing yet addicting show on television for inspiring me to write this shlock. Enjoy!

This looks interesting, I'll be watching.

Excellent. More please.

EEEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeexxxxcccellent...

Despite Thomas being totally cool with grammatical errors, I however am kind of a whore and nearly puked at how many errors in structure, form, and grammar there were upon further review and a large dose of coffee. Anyone feel like doing some revising for me :3? If so, shoot me a pm.

Looks good so far, I'll be keeping an eye on this. Am I guessing right when I say that Tom grows up to become a fighter pilot in the Second World War?

You got it! Honestly waiting to write that part is killing me. As horrible as the second World War was, it can be just plain fun to write about. As for what theater well... the picture can give you a hint at that.

Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
little Rainbow playin' wit little human.

I want more

Really interesting story, I'm following it like and fave, don't disappoint!

So, I'm guessing - based on the cover image and dialogue, that Thomas is member of one of the RAF Eagle squadrons?

Wrote this in a bit of a hurry, so if anyone finds any grammatical or structural errors feel free to say so!

'Captain Harkness"

What you did there. I see it.

This is a good story so far. Keep it up!

This is a pretty interesting premise you've got here. There's a couple of spelling/grammar mistakes, but nothing horrid, and it's a refreshingly uncommon setting (really don't see too many human/pony interaction stories set in the early 20th century).

I'mma put a tag on this, see where it wanders to. :rainbowkiss:

FASTER I CAN'T TAKE THIS!

UPDATE QUUUUUUUIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICCCCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKKLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

its orgasmic! :pinkiegasp:

You must not sleep. You must not take a break. You must not eat. You must not use the bathroom. You must write.....

First I requireth coffee :P. I'll definitely be writing a chapter tomorrow, though. Gotta let the ideas build up first :D.

1101505
COFFEE TAKES TIME!

AND I HAVE THREE DAYS LEFT UNTIL I DIE!
PLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOX
HURRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

And I love you:pinkiehappy:

1103791

Haha, I'll try n' hurry it along then :3.

Captain Clopper: Yar, laddies! I just came here to say that thar be no clopping in these waters. You'll have to set sail elsewhere for that. Yar har har har har har!

Annnd back to sanity mode. If there's any grammatical errors and such please let mah know!

I'm liking this story so far. Can't wait to see where it goes from here.

Hahah! Thank god no cloppin' here! Well, this chapter was truly lovely, and it filled my tiny heart with warmth. Truly a spectacular story! Onward and upwards!

You're right, I think it is a 303 squadron plane pictured shooting down what I think is a ME 109. I wonder if there are any pictures of any of the three US RAF Squadrons?
As an aside, I think they would be the only US citizens NOT to lose their citizenships for serving in foreign militaries.

1117271

No problems here, it's helpin me brush up on mah history a little bit. I honestly thought that most of the Americans in the BoB just hopped in the Royal Airforce and went to town and didn't actually have their own squadrons.

1117301
To start with they didn't, they either crossed into Canada and joined the RCAF or If they had already made to Europe they joined the RAF.Soon though seperate squadrons were formed.But I know of one guy who was in a regular RAF squadron, transfered to an eagle squadron, then asked to re-join his old squadron! He said he didn't like the attitude of his fellow Americans!

Here's the chapter I've been dreading to write. Important moments always come out crappier then you want em to be....

Anyway, I've just now realized that it's kind of a dick move for me not to be linking the sources of the fantastic images I've been using that far outclass my story, so here's the ones I could refind:

Chap 1 - http://browse.deviantart.com/?qh=&section=&q=fields+of+corn#/d18s7c0
Chap 3 - http://browse.deviantart.com/?qh=&section=&q=violin#/d12wxpw
Chap 4 - http://browse.deviantart.com/?order=9&q=Rainbow+dash+filly+cute&offset=96#/d4yt3k0
Chap X - http://browse.deviantart.com/?qh=&section=&q=poison+fog#/d47g1uv (Holy crap this one's good, and yes it's going to be used eventually.)

As always, thank god for Deviantart.

Also, there might be some sliiiight historical inaccuracies for the sake of plot and entertainment, though I'll try to keep most things as straight as I can. The BBC's documentary on the Battle of Britain has definitely helped me out a lot. If you're a history buff, definitely check it out on youtube. They went through a lot of trouble to show both sides of the coin.

Also, for those of you who clicked on this expecting some World War 2 action, it's coming ;).

you know
you should feel lucky you are able to cry
and not be able to take everything like a man 24/7
cuz crying lets it all out, once you cry you feel better
while the people that cant have to live with the emotions
take me for example after reading MLD i didnt shed a single tear
but i was depressed for the rest of the week

So Thomas and Rainbow can somehow connect, via their imaginations?

That's...brilliant. :yay:
Having our hero encounter one of the ponies before showing up in their world is original on its own...but to have both be children, and in a dream/imagining just has a certain charm to it that really breaks the mold. :heart:

Liked, tracked, and faved!

PS: First chapter made my heart explode. So, so much "d'awwwww" here... :twilightoops:

1125562

Not sure if I offended you or not with that but if I did I apologize. I just think not crying because 'I'm a guy' is a bit silly is all. However, there are plenty of other reasons for not being able to cry and I don't think they're dumb at all.

Not to totally be a history nerd on you, but at this point the Germans weren't the only one who had slid into a dictatorship. Italy had been taken over by Fascists, Japan had slid (or rather, been dragged) deep into batshit insane militarism*, and Stalin's Soviet Union had already engineered a massive famine as an attempt at political genocide. To focus on just the Germans strikes me as a bit... odd.

*Depending on exactly when these flashbacks are taking place, they may have already invaded China.

1126109

There's a reason for that though I don't want to spoil it. The flashbacks take place long before Hitler got up to his... shenanigans if I'm thinking of the years correctly.

1126130
Well, let me at least ask you: will there be Russians in the story? Because you see I have something of a strange obssession with the USSR...

1126156

It's likely there will be a few comments about them though I'm not sure. It depends on what year I have the climax in and where. I love me some Ruskies so I wish I could include them somehow, however.

1125732 um...i wasnt offended...i was jus saiyan

1130361

Oh my fault XD. Just wanted to make sure.

Yar, thank you coffee and Doctor Who (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SU2f7AWVhZ0) for getting me through this chapter. Sorry for a lack of Rainbow-Tom interaction. Image Source: http://browse.deviantart.com/?qh=&section=&q=infinity#/d15v7vl

Also, Buzz Lightyear is still the coolest space ranger. Commander Shepard eat your heart out.

O.O whao
sounds like quite a trip

You spell it monocles.

But other than that, good going.

I believe you want the word "hollow", not "hallow". Unless you mean Tom thought the Moon was exceptionally holy.

The level of greatness of this is over 9,000. :scootangel:

...Ah-hah-hah! The look on Rainbow's face wil be priceless, seeing as no one else'll be able to see him... heheheh. Let the following calamity ensue!

~Onward and Upwards!

To anyone who has a clown phobia; I apologize. In case you want to find who made that horrible image, here ya go: http://browse.deviantart.com/?qh=&section=&q=Evil+clown#/d1d6xg9. Also, THE CHAPTER YOU'VE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR IS COMING SOON. (by that I mean the one I've been waiting for). WW2 ACTION BABY!
