So, I finally got the chance to sit down with my younger cousin, and watch the season three finale.
She went into it completely unspoiled, not knowing what would happen, and when it came to the moment of truth with Twilight and Celestia in the astral void, well... initially she seemed more focused on cracking some jokes about the poses not looking very natural for an equine body shape. However, the moment Twilight started rising into the air, glowing with inner light, my cousin's eyes lit up just as much and she was a flurry of, "Oh my gosh, what's happening!" and all I could do is smile as I watched her watch Twilight.
Then Twilight lands back in Ponyville to spread her wings for the first time and as she does my cousin was practically leaping for joy, which only doubled when Celestia showed up to proclaim that Twilight had not only become an alicorn, but a princess as well. This is something my cousin had asked about way back when we first started watching episodes together last summer. Even as early as the end of the second episode, my cousin thought Clestia must be training Twilight to become a new princess, so I knew she was going to enjoy this, but getting to see it all play out on her face was a real treat.
For all the drama this finale caused in the older peripherals that make up those of us that call ourselves bronies, it was good to see that at least for one young girl --just a few years over the show's target demographics-- this epic event went off flawlessly... well, almost.
She was very concerned that this meant the show was over, that there would be no more stories left to tell, so it was also nice to be able to assure her that a fourth season was already in the works.

"Friend" works for me, though we might have to append the Vitriolic Best Buds trope to make it work.
>>387979: I would consider us friends, even if we disagree sometimes. There's nothing personal in it, and in the end, we both just want what's best for the verse and this community.
Cheers, mate. Let's keep on truckin'. :-)

I already sent a PM to Blackbelt, but this one I wanted to answer semi-publicly.
I wasn't expecting to get anything like this from you. Our relationship has often been tenuous at best, and the other day I was all too eager to put the blame for everything on you (fair or not). I've said before that it would be easier if I could just hate you, so I was almost glad to have the excuse. I'm not proud of that, but I can't really deny it either.
I prefer not to hate anybody though.
So, yeah, let's do our best to put the worst of this behind us and go back to being friends, or frenimies, or whatever it is the two of us are to each other, and use our disparate opinions to build a stronger Lunaverse.
...
Just to be clear, no offense was meant by any of the above, and at least parts were meant as humor, though admittedly it might be rather ill-conceived and poorly timed.
Basically, this as well.
We're all friends, and hopefully we can move on and continue building the L-verse. I'm sorry if I offended you, and I do hope we can all move past this fight and discuss things in good cheer once more.
You're my friend.
Despite the stuff that's gone on, you're my friend.
And that's all that matters.
Hello sir or madame,
I am Obsidian Raindrop the creator of a group known as The Great and Not Obsessive Trixie I am here to ask if you would like your story to be added to my group.
The only requirements are:
1. You have a story about Trixie and she is not completely obsessing over her lose at the hands of Twilight. (She can hate that she lost to twilight and even try and beat again but she just can't be be so obsessive like she is in most stories. )
2. She may be a supporting character or a main character it does not matter.
3. i can`t think of a third thing
Sorry to all those who either received this email twice or who don`t have trixie as a main or supporting character. Also just PM me if you want your story added.
Hello,
It's me Obsidian again asking you guys to do stuff you don't want to.
1. tell me the name of your story and the one folder you want it in
2.join the group it is really cool and we'll soon get a banner up
3. fallow because it will boost my confidence
Yours truly, Obsidian Raindrop
>>223947 It's a pretty great place
Hopefully all goes well with finding time to write. I also love it when the frenzy happens. Seems to be the main reason I actually have (low) double digits of pages on Brought 4 Fun rather than five or so.
Good to hear! I do in fact enjoy reading what you write, so more oncoming is definitely a good thing.
Also, I added you on Gameloft Live not even five minutes ago, so yeah

I've heard about this crazy backwards seasons you have there in upsidedown land.
As for the fics, meant to have updates for both of those this last week. Hoping for this next week, but not making any promises. It's not even really writers block, more so I just keep letting trivialities distract me and can't seem to work myself up into a frenzy of creativity where I sit down to type down a sentence or two and instead a few thousand words magicly appear and I'm mysteriously missing 6 hours of my life.
All I can say for now is that I'm not abandoning anything.
>>223939 Well, good to hear about the not-spam. I'll try to keep it up
I am pretty much the same in general, even though in The Land Down Under we have the awesome combination of Summer And Christmas At The Same Time. Which to some Europeans and Americans probably seems like a massive oxymoron or paradox or something.
How was Chap2 of WaW going? Any luck getting it done? Or even anything for EoI?
>>223932
Spam? Hardly.
Anyway, life's been pretty boring as of late, or at least uneventful. Kind of my own fault though, as I tend to only get out when I've got an absolute need to, and the cold weather give me even less incentive to do so than usual. I guess there's been the typical holiday stuff, but nothing that really stands out on it's own.
