Introductory Post: About Me! 🤡 · 9:47pm Mar 24th, 2023

Hey hey! Clownie here. It's been a minute since I first made this account, and I am now in the steady process of exploring FIMFiction in all its glory. While it will likely a while before I post any of my own fics due to my extremely busy schedule (guess who's in their final college semester?), I'm so excited to be here and to read everyone else's incredible stories. In the meantime, I figured I'd tell you guys a little bit about me...

I'm a creative writing major! Not only do I do this for fun, but writing is my livelihood as well.
I'm 25+ and would generally prefer to interact with those over the age of 18.
I recently got back into MLP because my dearest friend and collaborative writing partner wanted to give it a shot. I'm currently in the process of re-watching the entire series with him (in no particular order).
I like to edit fanvideos and have some MLP ones in the works. At some point I may link them here!
I'm autistic and have ADHD. Therefore, I may come across as a bit reserved and my attention is spotty. I'm also prone to jumping from fandom to fandom without warning and am admittedly unsure how long my current pony phase will last (could be months, could be the rest of the year and beyond, idk), so I plan to make the most of it! That being said, I love these characters a lot and would never completely abandon them.
Alongside Discord, my favourite characters are Tirek, Chrysalis, Cozy Glow, Twilight Sparkle, Trixie, Celestia, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Big Mac, Spike, Scorpan, and Mean Twilight. Though we don't know much about G4 Grogar, he intrigues me.
High-tier ships are mine (besides Twicord, my personal favourite) are Chrysirek, Dislestia, DiscoPie, TwiPie, Disrek, Twixie, Trixcord, Chrysdance, Twilight/Chrysalis, Flutterhugger, Rarishy, Sombrashy (selectively), Rarijack, Twijack, AppleDash, Rover/Rarity, CheesePie, and my beloved rarepairs: Twirek, Pinkrek, and Chrysalis/Pinkie. Feel free to rec me any fics involving these pairs!

As for some Pony Opinions (TM) to get them out of the way now:

I'm not interested in G5 and am saddened by the directions those writers decided to take the G4 characters, so I don't personally engage with it.
I'm not a fan of Starlight Glimmer and am extremely critical of the writing surrounding her redemption. I'm not going to attack people who like her, but consider this a heads-up that if she appears at all in my fics, she will be portrayed as an unsympathetic villain.
For personal reasons, I strongly dislike romantic Fluttercord and have no intention of portraying their relationship in such a light in my fics. However, I adore their friendship and their individual characters.
The Grogar twist did not personally bother me, nor do I think it was that OOC for Discord to do something so convoluted and stupid, though I understand those who were disappointed by this. However, I do think other parts of the finale could have been handled better, and am sore that the Mean Three were turned to stone. They deserved more.
I am open to friendly discussions and agreeing to disagree on certain things, but if I feel things are getting hostile or that my boundaries are being pushed, I will block. As a general rule, incest readers/writers and those who depict underage characters in sexual situations are blocked on sight, as these subjects trigger me.

I think that just about covers the basics! I tend to be online sporadically these days, but I'm always open to saying hello if anyone wants to talk ponies or about any common interests mentioned here!
