Okay, so it's been a while since I've been on here, even longer since I posted a chapter for one of my stories. I've written stuff for them don't get me wrong, but nothing really finished. Since I haven't posted the next chapter in Discord Babysitting in what I assume is nine months, among other fictions, I feel like I owe you guys an apology and an explanation. I'm not gonna tag any of my fictions with this, though I suppose I should tag Discord Babysitting, but I figure anyone who cares will see this.

While watching a recent episode of Game Grumps, Arin put something into perspective for me. A bad habit I have is setting deadlines for myself, goals of when I want to finish something and release it to the public. Whenever I set one of these deadlines, I never ever have once made a single one, nope, and unfortunately this destroys my mojo. So I'm sorry, I can't say when I'll come out with any of my fictions updates, just that I'll try and do something soon. Woof, I've been putting off telling you guys that for a long time, bout time I finally showed you all I'm alive!

Something that has interfered in my writing is my life, there's been a lot going on. I went through a break-up in October, found who I know is my soulmate in November, visited her on the opposite side of the country near the end of January, and I had plenty of my job, family, and a hurricane to deal with around all that. I'm also obsessed with watching Game Grumps and Pewdiepie, Doctor Who, and trying to get back into video games. Not only that but apparently I'm moving to Texas next month, so there's a ton of stress around that, and my evil step-mom refusing to divorce my father because she likes his money. Bucking witch. >.>

But none of these things are the number one reason for my lack of fictions. The number one reason? Roleplaying. What's more fun than writing a story? Making one with your friend. You can do anything you want, be anyone you want, you both contribute to the story, it's so addicting and I have some amazing roleplay buddies (not looking for more, this isn't an invite guys). It's never just about ponies, and it's always so unique and interesting, and often random. I recently roleplayed Buttercream Sundae from Littliest Pet Shop having Rouge from Sonic the Hedgehog as a girlfriend/ pet. Tell me that's not random (Rhetorical, don't be a smartass guys).

Unfortunately, my buddies have been roleplaying with me less and less lately, the move getting closer is stressing me out, and I somehow overdrew from my bank account so I can't afford to keep my gaming spree going. So this is pushing me back towards fictions in the worst of ways, but hey at least something might get done soon, right? I got some original work I want to do, but I really wanna get all your favorite pony fics updated just so you all know, so we'll see how things go in the future.

In the meantime, stay patient, and remain a bro guys and gals! ^^ See you when I see you!

Okay everyone, I've been asleep for the past, like, twelve or thirteen hours? I feel freaking incredible. My throat cleared up, and my ear de-pressurized, and I no longer feel like shit. It's amazing, I feel amazing, my teeth don't because I slept without my retainer but they'll get over it. I woulda slept longer if it weren't for my sister waking me, which I appreciate actually can't sleep all day you know?

Aside from going to rift trax live tonight, I need to get some serious fictioning done. In fact Febuary will be my month of fictions. You see I've finally decided on what my first fiction is going to be, and that is the first one I ever designed! Makrow. This book series actually stars all the various races and a lot of characters I ever designed, including Xam in his original setting. The books are designed to be not as long as say a Harry Potter book, but have enough happen so that it technically is. I'm descriptive, but I'm not going to spend a whole page or two describing a fucking street to you like the chick from Twilight would. No, it's a street, like any other, if the street lights are out they are I don't need to tell you how dark it is because of that, and maybe there's some bushes. Voila, can you imagine it? Can you imagine the fucking street? Good, then that's all you need. I'll be detailed where it's necessary, but not overly, so my books will be shorter and a little more fast paced, which is definitely a good thing. >_< Also you need to take into consideration if someone wants to make a movie of your book. If you say they can't see their hand in front of their face, how do they put that level of darkness in a movie? Make the screen black and have the character say "I can't see anything! Durrrr." No. That's the kind of thing you also need to think about, don't put thing in there that people can't imagine or see. It's why we don't have movies for the Cthulhu Mythos. =/

Makrow is a book series that takes place on the planet Tarka in dimension Q. It stars Xam before he became a wolf boy, Kiki the genius ki-monk, Kenneth the Stealth-kid, and of course Makrow himself (who I have a drawing of and I hope to post someday soon). They meet many other characters along their journey to collect the six soul stones of mana and use them to unlock the seventh stone of Vortex mana, in order to use it's power to fend off an alien race prophesized to destroy their world. The order of books is:

Makrow: Their Odyssey Begins

Makrow: The Girl with Horns

Makrow: Cosmic Energy

Makrow: Shattered World

Makrow: Dimensional Chaos

Makrow: Death of the Chosen

The series will continue into a second six book series called Secret Door, which takes place before and after Makrow. It once again stars Xam, only this time it takes place in our own dimension and has a different cast of characters, aside from a few he brings back from dimension Q. I don't feel like spoiling any details, so I'll leave it at that and tell you the order of the books.

Secret Door: Memories of the Past

Secret Door: Gods of Japan

Secret Door: Deal with the Devil

Secret Door: Send in the Clones

Secret Door: Heart of Darkness

Secret Door: Galaxies Collide

So this is what I'm going to work on. Every week I'll try and dish out 1-3 of the chapters for these books, and everything else is second fiddle because this is a step towards my future career. I'll post chapters on deviantart as I make it to get feedback, and I may take it down if I actually get it published into a book so no one can post free copies when I become famous. =P

I still have tons of pony fics I wish to work on and will, a couple of which I will be updating soon. Sorry everyone I just had a hectic month with the whole visiting my girlfriend on the other side of the country thing.  I also have even more that that a ton of short fictions I want to do based around mine and my friends characters to show their bonds with each other, and to give them something to show I contribute as well since I can't draw artwork. All being Dimension Royale related, it's not important to any of you on FimFic and I won't bother you with details. ^^;

So look forward to Makrow, and look forward to hopefully more ponies soon. ^^

I'm really super nervous right now everybody. In just a couple of hours I'm going to be getting on a flight and going on an adventure to and through Oregon to finally meet my girlfriend in real life. I don't anyone to give me the "you've never met her" ridicule, and I want to take this relationship more seriously than any I've had before. I love her, so I have to meet her, no matter how hard it will be to leave when the day comes, but I'm more focused on what we're going to do together while I'm up there with her. ^^ I've got my DS and the complete works of HP Lovecraft to keep me entertained during the fourteen hour trip to her place, and I'm taking my notebook computer with me as well. I'm not sure if I'll have time to work on anything fiction related, but I promise to dish out what I've got when I get back from my trip. Again, I'm super nervous to be meeting her, it's driving me nuts! Wish me luck everybody!

You know, I've had a shit ton of drama today, or yesterday, whatever. I found out that apparently because I'm not a student, I can't fly stand-by for free to go visit my girlfriend, and it's going to cost money for even a buddy pass despite my dad being a pilot, and that doesn't even ensure that I'm going to get on the flight we pay for. This spoiled my peaceful day as I was finally getting some fiction work done for the first time in months, and if that wasn't enough my girlfriends Mom got a cut that bled profusely and drove herself to the hospital. Mod (my gf) lost contact with her until she safely came home hours later, and I was thankfully able to comfort her for some of the time she waited worriedly for her mom. I wish I hadn't watched the new MLP episode earlier so I could watch it now to cheer me up, especially since tonight is the night that all the sad episodes of Toonami shows played.

Thundercats: Liono willingly sacrifices his soul to save his friends, only to keep it because of his willingness creating a touching moment. Not so bad, but it was only the beginning.

Eureka Seven: One hour later an episode comes on where Renton tries to save a young girl who is dying but can't get life support because she's the same race as a group of terrorists. In the end the girl dies, but her parents thank him for what he tried to do, doubling the tears he is already shedding. And the crew of the Geckostate finally reveal to Eureka that Renton is gone and she blames herself.

Deviantart RP: In the middle of all this I randomly developed a back story for my Milftails Nancy that was incredibly sad and dramatic and I will turn into a fiction. It was inspired by the final episode of Mighty Max and was shockingly depressing.

Tenchi GXP: It was the episode where Erma dies in spirit and Ryoko takes her place in the series. This was always a sad episode for me since Erma technically dies, but the scene that it happens is so dramatic and sad, I always cry when she can't bring herself to kill Seina.

Full Metal Alchemist: The episode Kernal Hughs dies by the hand of Envy.

Cowboy Beepop: The episode Spike is reunited with Julia only to watch her get shot in the back, the saddest moment in the series.

WHAT IS THIS?! National Feels Day?! God damn back to back to back sad here man, I can't get out of my funk! I'm not going to sleep tonight out of sorrow, I got a lot left undone anyways. F You feels! I didn't need this tonight of all nights! GOD! >_<

Back back, back again! Guess who's back, back back, tell your friends!

Okay enough of that. -w- Hello my fans and friends! I am finally announcing my return to FIMFiction! I've had a notebook for over a month, I was just relaxing and taking a break from pony fics. -w- But now I'm in the mood for them again, and will be bringing you your favorites! I have to rewrite Ponyville High ch. 10 after it was lost on my old computer, which will be a pain in the ass. >3> I also have big plans for the Twilight Sparkle chapter of Discord Babysitting, including three musical numbers. =P

But before I work on those, I'd like to start working on something else. As you might recall I mentioned a Choose Your Own Adventure, which I have scrapped because it was  138 pages of crap! I have revamped it and I'm simply in love with how things are coming out! It's going to be longer, but it's going to be better! Every choice isn't a move on or die scenario, instead creating various paths through the story for your enjoyment and amusement. Games that you will play through, as a little preview, include:

The Legend of Fluttershy

Super Candy Cart Racing

The Stupid Adventures of Spike and Twi

God of Rainbow

Apple Smash Sisters

The Diamond of Cthulhu

and Disc. Core D, the connecting zone between each game.

I look forward to working on it, and hope you all can be patient for updates on your favorite fics, as I have a lot distracting me in real life as it is. -w-; In any case, it's good to be back. =3

I've got some really bad news everybody, and I don't know if the timing was convenient or inconvenient, but I'm in a serious financial crisis at the moment. My father has demanded 250$ to pay off his taxes and slings accusations at me whenever I refuse, I haven't been able to put any money towards my medical bills for over a month and soon it will go on my permanent credit report, the brake booster on my car has gone out so every time I come to a stop I have to pump the brakes, and as icing on the cake while not money related I just broke up with my girlfriend (we're going to remain sisters but nothing more). All of this was bad enough as it was, but today I woke up to a very serious issue, and that being the one thing I've relied on to maintain sanity is finally gone:

My Laptop

Inconvenient timing on the account of I have so many fictions I wanted to finish before the month was up and was well on my way to doing just that. Luckily the hard drive is safe so I'll be able to pick up where I left off. My best friend just happened to come back to town for the weekend so I can type this message to you guys. The two of us tried to identify the problem with my laptop, taking it apart and checking the ram amongst other things, but it seems that my motherboard just abruptly decided its time was up. Getting a new one could cost 200$ and getting it installed would cost an arm and a leg, so I'm better off just getting a new laptop. Unfortunately I don't have the money for such a thing, and with all these financial problems I may not until late November, if even then. So the least and most I can do right now, unfortunately, is say my good byes, because computer access won't be possible for a month. I don't have any friends with computers (man, all my friends are freaking hobos) and the only places I could access one block deviantart so I wouldn't be able to even visit my friends and see their latest works of art. So for the next month all I can do is work more hours and play video games.

I apologize to my readers who love to read my fictions. I haven't come out with a lot in the past month, and now it looks like it will take me even longer, and for that I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry everyone. I wish there was something more I could do. I'm considering getting a netbook, or if it's even cheaper a tablet, just so I can get online at the very least. This would push back getting a new laptop and working on fictions, but it might be worth it in the end for me. But for now, you're all going to have to live without me for a bit. =(

For the first time I'm going to use this thing as a blog, for the sole purpose on updating you all on my doings as of late. I haven't been on or very active lately, this you may have noticed. I recently got the permanent procedure to my toes, applying medical acid to the sides to make sure the nails don't ever grow back there, and I'm still popping Vicodin since, and Ibuprofen to deal with the headaches it gives me. This isn't the reason I've been absent I suppose. =I The real culprit is video games.

You see, a lot of games are coming out now, games I've been looking forward to for well over a year now. These games include:

-Borderlands 2

-Pokemon Black & White 2

-Dishonored

-Dust: An Elysian Tale

-Skylanders: Giants

-Black Mesa Source

While I don't have a lot of money thanks to medical bills, I have already bought a couple of these. Well, bought is a strong word when it comes to Black Mesa Source =I, and in the past few days I've played through the first twelve levels out of fifteen. I needed a sci-fi first person shooter to pick me up. -w- Feels good... feels real good... Me and my bro went back to playing Borderlands while we save up for Borderlands two. we just finished General Knox's Secret Armory, so now all we have to do is Claptrap's Robot Rebellion, and then we can screw around in Moxxi's Underdome until we buy the game. Also Gamestop gave me a fifteen month calendar for Borderlands 2, it's very nice. =3 I still need to download Dust, and I gotta save up for Skylander's expansion while finishing what I've yet to do in the initial game. XD

When it comes to Pokemon, in preparation for the upcoming sequel I'm hard at work on the first Black & White, finishing what I started. =I I left off at Twist Mountain heading to the seventh gym, and just today I've defeated the eigth gym and got three new legendary pokemon under my belt (on the first balls thrown which I personally think is legendary. XD). Now I'm on my way to the Elite Four, as well as the first final boss in this game... yeah there's like 2 separate occassions where you face a sorta... final boss. Look I know these things cus I have a strategy guide. >=I I'm getting ready to blow away the next game, with tons of legendary pokemon being made available to me as of late.

Don't think this means I haven't been working on fictions though. In fact here's an update for ya:

With Ponyville High I'm at 60% completion with the next chapter, so it would take me a couple hours to finish. It's the start of a virtual world subplot that takes place through the rest of the series, and the second part will be chapter 10. Chapter 11, well, we get back to the goofy romantic-comedy you all have fallen in love with. I got tons of ideas for chapters based around certain characters and I'm just trying decide who to go with next. =P Maybe I'll run a poll when I get there.

Rainbow's Wrath is at about 33%, just need to take some time and effort to work on it. I'm considering ways to change things for the better, one of which involved Derpy. A fan told me how much Derpy meant to them and that they hoped she wasn't dead, and while I took this into consideration being a huge Derpy fan myself, whats done is done. I'd love to make it to where she didn't actually die, or she was brought back like Rainbow, but it messes with story continuity and logic. Don't worry, you can get more lovable Derpy in my other fictions. =P

Discord Babysitting I'm still coming up with ideas for the Twilight Sparkle chapter. I got plenty that goes on outside of the flashback story for this chapter, but as for the story it'self I'm trying to make a story and good random humor. So far I got ideas that range from a hoard of party monkeys trashing Celestia's palace, to Discord frolicking through the sausage fields like a German schoolgirl. I'm working on it, okay?

As for the choose your own adventure story I'm working on I'm a little worried about it. While I have 6 different stories for you to mess around through and intertwine in some way, my problem is that every page the two options I made is either a "Continue forward" or "You Lose" which doesn't feel like a proper choose your own adventure. I wonder if I should scrap the idea and try a different one with a proper choose your own adventure format, or if I should go through with it for now so you all can enjoy what I've come up with like any fiction and then do something proper later when I have more time. Either way I got some choose your own adventures planned for the future with various genres you all may enjoy, that is if I tone down the grimdark on a few, since not as many people on FimFic like those as say Tumblr. >.>

I'm also working out some ideas for a pokemon (Pokemorph) fiction I may or may not work on soon while I'm in the mood. Anyways, that's everything I can think to tell you right now. I hope to dish something out soon, but I got work in the morning and I'm still kinda in game mode, so we'll see for now. In any case, take care everybody, and live your lives like me. Sometimes a break and some stress relieving KILL THINGS is all you really need, you know? XP

Well, yesterday I got my power back on from the hurricane, and today about the same time we got our cable and internet finally came back on as well. I was miserable without all of this, but it did give me some time to think about a few fiction related things, which I can return to with privacy and AC. I'll also need to catch the third episode on Eureka 7 and Samurai 7 online somehwere now before the fourth episodes come on Toonami on Saturday. -.- Anyways, I'm back! And Fictions! Rawr!

First of all I've already announced the cancellation of XM-Virus, which I have replaced with the short series "Jazzy's Slumber Party" which could be anywhere from 2 to 5 fictions long, I don't know, and I don't plan on knowing for once. ^^ I'm also going to cancel any planned works on Lyra Vampire such as "Song of the Sacrier" due to poor feedback on "Dream COme True", as well as CT-Pon3 in favor of working on a more modern Cthulhu mythos pony fiction. It's not that I don't like futuristic mecha battles with the Migou, it's just that Cthulhu Tech has restraints to it I don't like. I want something unplanned that I can update anyway I choose and something that feels more standard to modern society, but don't worry, it will still be a first person story from the eyes of Vinyl Scratch. This idea however, as well as "My Seven Little Sins" will be put on a temporary hiatus so that I can focus on a few other works.

With the time this all frees up, I can now focus on a few other works. I intend on working on the next two chapters to Ponyville High, as well as the Twilight Sparkle chapter to Discord Babysitting, all soon. I also wish to work on a few one shots for other fandoms outside of my little pony for once, including: Pokemon, Skylanders, and Solatorobo. I'll also be able to update my new fiction Jazzy's Slumber Party, and my old fic Caverns and Chinchillas (which will take a slightly different direction I originally intended for good reasons) with a new chapter soon.

As for my secret project, it's not dead, I just want to get some of this off my plate before I devote a lot of time to it. And it's no secret anymore. I'm going to come out with a choose your own adventure story that I'll post exclusively on FIMFiction, simply because they are capable of supporting such a fiction with their link system, and manner of posting chapters, or in this case my individual pages. All I'll reveal about this choose your own adventure is that you play an androgenous pony character (yourself basically) who gets sucked into a video game they were testing and have to play through to find your way out. Believe it or not there is a lot more to it than just that, but there's your taste. You'll have to wait a while for me to get these other works off my plate, but I'm sure a new Discord Babysitting will help everyone be a little more patient. ^w^

For now, I gotta go to work, but I have all the time I need again. It's good to finally be back everyone.

I'm in Louisiana getting hit with a Hurricane. =I I'll be back when it's over and we have power (since we'll lose it I'm sure, we always do). I'll delete this then. Take care other ponies of the world.

A temporary notice for you all to explain a couple things.

Where have I been:

For the past few days I've been stressing out over a desperately needed visit to a Healthcare Center. I finally got one set up so I could visit their Podiatrist, who is only there on Wednesdays. I spent two hours trying to find the place because they gave me the wrong address and ended up having to go into a gas station with hunting trophies to ask for directions. *Shivers* Yesterday I got the sides of my nails removed, which have been just as bad as ever. But this time it didn't cost me over a thousand dollars like at the hospital. Instead it only cost me 57 freaking dollars. And in a month I'm getting the permanent procedure for just a little more. My medical condition is solved, I was just too out of it to get on and do anything yesterday is all.

What I'm doing:

I'm half way done with a new Rainbow's Wrath, but while I try to finish this up and get to other scheduled fictions, I'd like to make a shout out to Rokku-D. Marius (as I'll adress him) is an amazing artist, one of the best I know, and I've admired his work for a very long time, since back when he was BigBootyInc. To see his art (which is always relative to my interests) come so far amazes me, but wait there's more. Lately this cool guy has fallen in love with my characters Mam and Jazzy, and has not only drawn them a bunch himself, but gotten another artist to draw them a couple of times! That's. Pretty. Awesome. -w- So as a shout out to this super cool dude, I think I'll do a couple of short fics for him to saw thanks and hope there's more to come. Woo! Rokku-D!

What's To Come:

To make up for my lack of speed when writing the scheduled pics, I'll try and come out with another Dicord Babysitting and a second Ponyville High, my two most popular series, before working on my secret project. Also I've been discussing it with Okamiseinen, my main internet bro, and once he's cleaned up his plate a little, he's going to help me start a tumblr blog for my human versions of the MLP cast. He'll help me do at least one art response a week to questions, which alone is pretty awesome of him. Unless I come up with a better idea for the name, it will be called "Ask Rainbow Jam and friends", the cast being:

Rainbow Jam (Rainbow Dash)

Skittles Jam (Scootaloo)

Apple Blossom (Applejack)

Peach Blossom (Apple Bloom)

Pear Blossom (Big Mac)

Harmony Bell (Rarity)

Melody Bell (Sweetie Belle)

Bubblegum Pop (Pinkie Pie)

Butterfly (Fluttershy)

Starlight Twinkle (Twilight Sparkle)

Spike (As himself, because he's swag)

Dizzy Danger (Derpy Hooves)

Dinky Danger (Since her name isn't cannon anyways)

So look forward to that! And as I said, this is a temporary blog, I'll get rid of it when I get back on my feet. Ha, get it?! Back on my feet?! I just got surgery! L O L! B3
