    April, with many a day…

    So I just spent from the third through today (sort of, still have some driving to do) on holiday. Went to Dallas to see the Eclipse in totality, swung though Hot Springs for… well, the hot springs, and finally St Louis for a lovely riverboat dinner before bidding the Boyfriend farewell and starting the trip home.

    Well, I started it...

    All Good Things... has commenced. I may have a chapter of it up tonight.

    I really want to start closing out the unfinished stories, but sometimes you just can't get back into the flow for them. Sorceress and the Siren is one, Into the Wilds is another. Which is sad cause I love writing Azure.

    Homecoming, in retrospect.

    Homecoming as a series is a glorious mess. I’ve gone on short bits of fluff, created some … unique ships, twisted the fabric of canon EqG, and even touched on some dark topics.

    Don't you just hate it...

    When you can't find something when you need to?

    Case in point, I went looking for a comment where they alluded to It being like Frodo saving the Shire for everyone but himself and had to sail to another land to find solace.

    But I can't remember what fic or anything else.

    And it's frustrating to me.

    Meanwhile, in other news...

    For those wondering....

    I am working on Truth.

    “What are you doing here?” Sunset stammered as she gazed at her father. Emotions swirled inside of her, a maelstrom of feelings. Confusion, certainly. Some anger, long-simmered and cooled into bitterness. A bit of joy, but just a tiny bit.

    Mostly confusion though.

    Red rubbed the back of his neck. “It’s a long story,” he hedged.

Trials · 2:42am Feb 6th, 2023

I just posted the Penultimate chapter of Trials of a Princess tonight. I hope you guys like how things are being resolved. Just a final chapter and an Epilogue, and this era of Homecoming will come to an end.

I mentioned this in my chapter notes, but my wife and I were never fully happy with how Chrysalis went out in the show. I was ok with it since she tried to take ponies out with her, but I had felt for a while that she would get redeemed... even by accident.

My wife, on the other hand, disliked it. She is a huge Chrysalis fangirl and a large portion of her larger fics focus on the change that occurred to the bug after being defeated at the Royal Wedding.

If you want to see what I'm talking about, that continuity starts here, In Queen No More.

So, yeah. This fic is coming to a close, and when it does, that will be the last long-form Homecoming story. I'll be back to do tiny bits of slice-of-life and fluffy stories, but there won't be any more stories with such high stakes. Unless you count parenthood as high stakes.

Please let me know how you feel about this chapter. I do so love hearing your thoughts.

Could you keep it down? I'm trying to sleep here!

Sorry.

So, if the story "Trials of a Princess" is technically over, why it still labeled as incomplete? :unsuresweetie:

Because there are still two chapters to go.

Loving this story, and the whole continuity
I have read through it several times :pinkiehappy:

I very much enjoyed the concept of Twi and Sunset being linked. It made their relationship stronger especially when Sunny was needed by Equestria.
