Upcoming and Data · 11:51pm Jun 4th, 2023

I mentioned on a blog post of Silver Notes that i'd blatantly crib their style of data tracking posts. Both because it looks fun, and it's a good way of keeping up to date. First though, I thought it'd be nice to give a general update on how things are going.

In a previous blog I mentioned there were three Reflection-Verse fics percolating. These are fics that aren't merely being planned out, but actively being written. Whether that be in notes or actual fiction, it's happening.

The first is the closest to finishing. Originally intended as a short piece, a mere snippet of the overall Nightmare Moon event which is similar but different (as always with the Reflection-Verse) it began from a single scene and grew. It's not a huge piece though, and despite saying "No more competitions for Relfection-Verse fiction" it's conveniently around the right size (with a little bit of editing here and there). The title is (possibly) Allegiance. That will probably be uploaded in a few days. I need a few pre-readings to really see if it actually works, you know? Previously I'd have uploaded it after the first pre-read and not considered another round after the first draft.

The second is a fun piece focusing on Mayor Mare. I'm aiming at 4k for that and have nearly 1k done already.

Finally, there's the actual Reflection sequel. That's the one which will take the longest time. Despite being a 4k aim, I want to really work on it, get it right.

Aside from those, other tentative ideas I'd like to work on...

The Seduction of Hitch Trailblazer - A G5 Comedy fic.
Digimon Redemption Squad - EQG, Wallflower Blush, Lightning Dust, and Micro Chips are entrusted with three villainous digital monsters, and are entrusted in rehabilitating them. All the while battling the threat of monstrous incursions from the digiworld.
Weird Sunny Flare/AI romance EQG. Based off a crack idea I had, and the fact that Sunny Flare is pretty much an empty character.
Marvel Crossover A one shot EQG idea.
At The Gala - Wrapping up S1 of the Reflection-Verse
Untitled Discord Story - Reflection-Verse take on S2 opener
Untitled Sweetie Belle story - My first take on a CMC, also in the Reflection-Verse
Semi-prequel to Branch Shaking - A view on Twilight, from Fluttershy's perspective. Reflection-Verse.
Dark Rainbow Focused Horror - Another Reflection Verse story.
