It's not canon to Conflict of Interest. Which shouldn't be too much of a shocker, considering Equestrians on the whole have a much different opinion on Changelings, but I mean in more of a historical sense too. Without spoiling anything, I'll be keeping as much as possible, but... modifying it, just a little bit.

Also, it's given me a good idea of where to go next for that, so hey! NEW CHAPTER COMING SOONISH!

So yeah, fun episode. In short, there were a lot of things right with this episode, but the premise was either extremely flawed, or they're out of order like I think. Which would have been nifty. Can you imagine if, just for this episode, Twi didn't have her wings? It wasn't commented on, nothing was said, they just... weren't there?

Also, good lord, Rainbow's breakdown hit really close to home. Anyone who's had a pet die was cringing, hard, at that moment. I can guarantee it.

OH MY GOD

ITS BRILLIANT

ITS ALL ABOUT COMMUNISM

ALL OF IT

ALSO CULTS

STRAIGHT TO THE END

(In case you are not a Russian History expert, have this quick little refresher.)

ALSO I CAN TOTALLY WARP THIS TO THE SPARKYVERSE

THANK YOU MEGHAN McCARTHY FOR NOT BREAKING EVERYTHING

It's a good feeling when the show's writers throw us fanfiction writers a curveball, and what we've already written fits it perfectly. If you've read literally any other "SEASON FIVE IS COMING" blog, you know the curveball.

I'll just toss this out there, see if anyone gets it.

Thank you to everyone who's watched it, and don't worry, I'm still working on the second chapter. It'll come. But, in the meantime, have some coverart by Gamermac!

So! For all of you that watched me due to the risque-ness of Conflict of Interest, have a clopfic! For all of you that watched me for the compelling story of Conflict of Interest, have a new story in the Sparkyverse! It's all of the things!

Seriously though, I'm proud of this one. (Though I was strongly considering titling it "The clopfic what pissed off Marshal Twilight" instead.)

Enjoy!

I'll just say this: I don't know Knighty personally. I just know him as the guy who runs the site, with whom I've never had any problems with. For that I like him. Now you may have beef with him, and according to you, he kicks babies and hates transgender people. But he's cool in my book, and that's all I'll say on the subject.

Engorged.

What an absolutely stupid word.

Put down those pitchforks, English majors, I'm going somewhere with this. Really, the word itself is a perfectly decent word. Very descriptive, very scientifically accurate. So why the hell do I keep seeing it in clopfics these days?

So! I... uh...

I'll be honest here, I've just been a lazy f***.

Today, I got sick of it, and wrote 10,000 words. That's as many as a hundred tens, and that made me feel pretty damn good.

Conflict of Interest Update is also in the pipe, to justify me tagging this post, so get hype for that! ...Though it's a short one I'm not particularly proud of that has some world-building.

But!

I do not like retcons. Let me just get that out there now.

One of my favorite game series has been undergoing a retcon (Halo) for a while now, and it drives me nuts, personally. I am loathe to even consider them, and stars forbid I retcon anything of my own...

...But I actually have a valid reason—or so I like to think.

As you all know, Conflict of Interest features Flash Sentry. You know, this smug chump.
