I didn't even know if this account even existed anymore, but at least I wanted to thank my subscribers, few as they are. If you guys are still around, I love you. Writing was a coping mechanism for me that slowly became a sort of job and it was thanks to you. I loved the show for what it was, despised the finale (sorry guys), but I loved the community for what it was. Once again, thank you for the good times.

Hello from the other side · 8:16am Feb 8th, 2017

Worry not, I'm not dead. Just sleeping. So, I heard just now the show is coming back in April and...I don't care about it. Yeah, Season Six while it had a few good episodes it kinda burned me out on the show. I'll keep writing (Something, maybe) but I don't think I will follow it. Many, many writers I follow are of the same sentiment and while I may hear something interesting happening in the canon of the show I don't think I will incorporate it. We all know that the movie will be the de facto

*Taps on mic* Is this thing on? · 7:37pm Dec 17th, 2016

I'm not dead, guys. I'm just slumbering. Kinda like Cthulhu but prettier. I'm so absorbed by FFXV that I lsot track of time. Anyways, let us talk about things: First of all, two new fics coming. Yay! Second of all, working on my doctorate thesis! Double yay! Third of all, I've started a campaign to gather funds in my hometown for a shelter for LGBT people because, and don't worry I won't get political, the elections had me think. I won't discuss about my political leanings but I thought, for

Special Birthday PPOV Review and Spoilers · 4:15pm Oct 1st, 2016

Well, not only it's my birthday but I got as a present what is probably the strongest episode of the second half of the season! We'll have to start on the fact that the episode had actually four writers and it showed, but not in a bad way: It's rare to have a sort of anthology episode with strong itnernal continuity and I had a blast in figuring out the common element (I was right, by the way) of the stories. I appreciated the fact that the pony telling the story didn't go too much voerboard

Every Little Thing She Does Review and Spoilers · 4:10pm Sep 24th, 2016

Starlight Glimmer's Lesson Zero. One of my main complaints about Starlight was the fact she seemed too good at thing. Twilight showed an impressive growth for the first three seasons and we accept that. We know were she comes from and we enjoy when she succeds and we are sad when she screws up. Starlight didn't have that so it seemed a little "Mary Sue-Ish" and this episode was somewhat redeeming on this front. But not by much. First of all, we get it: She's a dork like Twilgiht was at the

Viva Las Pegasus Review and Spoilers · 4:03pm Sep 17th, 2016

In which the episode tackles an issue that really needed some more expanding on: A false friend. First of all, the choice of ponies for the issue. Applejack and Fluttershy were perfect because they are down to earth, downright mellow and, most of all, have strong familiar ties, They were the perfect ones to solve the squabble between Flim and Flam that prove that once we see a secondary antagonist a second or third time they prove surprisingly deep. I appreciated the fake friendship problems
