    Ester Dracos complete! What lies in store for Nighty and Butter?

    Alright, well I'm finally done with the second arc for My Little Sister is a Dragon!

    I got a little side-tracked with it at times, but to be fair, it was a longer story than normal, so I guess 4 months isn't so bad. I do feel a lot better not doing the whole one-chapter-a-week thing and I'm glad you guys understand.

    Ester Dracos nearing completion

    I'm almost done with the final chapter of MLSiaD Ester Dracos. Gotta do a little proofreading, and then that story is done. Then after that is "Ghost of Grogar" for FHS.

FHS/MLSiaD Q and A April 2024 · 6:38pm April 20th

Now for the answers to the latest Q&A:



MLPFollower from FIMfiction asks: Exactly how many seasons of both Flurry Heart’s Story and My Little Sister is a Dragon are there going to be? 9 like Friendship is Magic, more, or less?

There most likely won’t be that many seasons with FHS, but know knows. With MLSiaD, it’s more like a mini-series with one season. The first two episodes/arcs have been longer: about 10 chapters but some in the future could be shorter (or longer) and right now I’m looking to around 12-13ish episodes in total.

MLPFollower from FIMfiction asks: Any characters from G1-3 you’re thinking of adding in to the stories?

I’ve already revealed that the bushwoolies and Princess Porcina are coming up, but I could use more. I’m not going to say who or what exactly I have in mind right now as it could all change.

MLPFollower from FIMfiction asks: Who do you plan to be the final main villain in the series finale(s) and why?

I think I’ve kind of already made it obvious who the main villain will be, but I’ll let you guys figure out who that is. Why? Well let’s just say he deserved better in the official show.

asdtroi8895 from FIMfiction asks: FHS story so far takes place over the summer if I recall. In that case, do you have any plans for when the summer ends?

The summer will end at the end of Season 2. Not all of the show will take place in just a few months, just the first two seasons will. I was originally going to have 26ish episodes for season 1, but I decided to split it in half and make MBFPW a finale. If you add S1 and S2 together, it would be the proper amount of episodes for FiM, but some of them are so long and would be more like 2-parters, so I did the right thing by doing 13 per season.

asdtroi8895 from FIMfiction asks: Will the Pinkie clones make a comeback?

There’s an episode where they will appear. They won’t have tremendous importance, but they’ll be present.

asdtroi8895 from FIMfiction asks: Is Cozy legally considered as old as she was before being turned to stone considering the time she's been in there?

I always wondered this myself. I like to think any identification would say what year she was born but probably have something noting how time passed for her in over 8 years. Technically and legally she’d still be a child, the same age she was when she was turned to stone, but if it didn’t happen, I’d like to think she’d be 18-20 years old now.

SpikeSmolder fan from FIMfiction asks: Will Nightlight come clean and apologize to Spike’s family about keeping Buttercream *away* from him per se when they finally meet?

I think you mean Nightwatch. Nightlight is Twilight’s dad. XD Anyway, I am thinking about that. There’s a story coming up where he could make such a presence to her family, but it won’t happen when we first see him. Nighty is busy with something important right now, but he’ll show up soon, and when he does, it’s gonna be epic!

SpikeSmolder fan from FIMfiction asks: Is Flurry gonna stay in Ponyville after summer's over, maybe taking classes at the Friendship School?

She’ll be going back to the Crystal Empire when the summer is over. I do like the idea of her taking some classes at the School of Friendship, but I don’t want Flurry to be away from her parents most of the time.

SpikeSmolder fan from FIMfiction asks: Will Zeb and Svengallop get what's coming to them? Up to this point that's your only story that had a bad ending. (Made me wished Spike walloped both of them)

Yes.

RomanLSantos fan from FIMfiction asks: What ideas do you have for both Flurry Heart's Story and My Little Sister is a Dragon but ended up being changed or scrapped?

Oh boy, where do I begin…

We all know that in “Cheesy as Pie”, I was going to have Cheese do a musical number to get ready to propose to Pinkie, but I lost my motivation, which kinda fit the theme of that story anyway, so I just didn’t write it or even reveal any notes or lyrics. Notice how in the final chapter of MBFPW, Pinkie and Cheese say they both had songs they were working on at that time and ended up mixing them together to make How Did I Get So Lucky? The song Cheese was working on was pat of HDIGSL and Pinkie had a song she was working on too. One of them had the lyrics while the other had the tune. I admit this was afterthought, but someday I might update CaP to have Cheese going over his own song.

“Villains Anonymous” was originally going to be very different, but my memory on that is fuzzy. I can’t remember if I’ve said this before, but I actually thought up the plot for that episode before the end of the show when I was imagining how they could bring Tirek back to reform him like they did with Discord, but it doesn’t go so well. The idea ended up being recycled. Before I started drafting that story, I remember it being a little different in my head, but I kept the overall idea of Fluttershy and Discord trying to reform him and he is somewhere on Fluttershy’s property while it’s happening, but the lesson would be that not everyone will reform like Discord did.

“Dream of Alicornication” wasn’t supposed to be quite as depressing at the end. Flurry was originally supposed to use Poison Joke on Cozy to make her horn droopy like Twilight’s in S1. Cozy was also originally going to go back to Zecora’s hut to take the bath to cure her of the Poison Joke, only to find her horn disappears anyway since her powers were taken away earlier. Given how horrific it would be for her to see her fake parents fade away and then have to tell Flurry the truth, this had to be changed. Such emotion would lead into “Oh, Mother, Where Art Thou?” quite well.

There are a ton of other things that were just different in my mind back when the summaries were drafted, but I don’t have time to go over all of them. If you go back through my journals/blog posts, you can probably find me talking about them in the follow-ups after the stories are done.

Jam5022 from FIMfiction asks: Will we get to see any stories that focus on the Student Six

I’ve already revealed synopses for the first 9 episodes of S2, and one of them is about the Student Six, so yes.

Jam5022 from FIMfiction asks: will Flurry Heart try to play matchmaker with someone(s)

That’s kind of more of Buttercream’s thing, but Flurry could certainly join her someday since we’re obviously seeing a setup for Nightwatch and Twilight.

Dupontsimon from FIMfiction asks: I've been thinking about the changelings designs that resemble different insects, like Antenna and Pronotum as a bumblebee and scarab beetle. Will they make another appearance?

They could.

Dupontsimon from FIMfiction asks: Will seaponies make an appearance?

I have given that some serious consideration, just haven’t found a way to fit them in yet. Aside from Silverstream using her necklace, I wouldn’t mind using Queen Novo or Princess Skystar someday.

Dupontsimon from FIMfiction asks: Were there any mentions about snake dragons?

You mean wyrms? Like what Pansy is?

Harmony Passionflower from FIMfiction asks: Are Winona, Opalescence, and Owlowiscious still alive? I did some research, and border collies live 12-15 years, Persian cats 12-17 years, and owls (depending on the species) 15-30 years. I was particularly curious about Winona since we saw her puppies or (grandpuppies) in "The Last Problem." Also, where is Tank? Pet tortoises live 50-100 years, so he should be around for a while.

I’d like to think Opal and Owlowiscious are still around, but sadly Winona probably passed on not too long ago. She would leave behind some pups and grand-pups though. And yeah, Tank is obviously still around. I’m mad that I keep forgetting to fit him in to a story involving Stormy.

Harmony Passionflower from FIMfiction asks: I know the MLP comics aren't technically canon, but I'm aware that Spike at one point met a cute dragoness named Mina. She's into comic books just like him and even runs a comic book store (quite fitting since she only appears in the comics). While it's never explicitly stated, she and future Spike appear to be together in one of the last comics. Would you consider her as a potential girlfriend for your Spike?

She doesn’t interest me so she will probably never be in FHS, and if she does, she would definitely not be Spike’s girlfriend. I’m still working out a love interest for Spike and I think I’ve got a good idea coming along for that.

Harmony Passionflower from FIMfiction asks: Is Flurry's cutie mark design going to look similar to adult Flurry's mark in the video game?

I swear, I cannot for the life of me find a high-quality image of that Gameloft pic of adult Flurry, but it does appear too similar to Cadance’s. Whatever it is, I probably won’t go with it and will just make my own.

MasonKlusek from FIMfiction asks: Will there be a chapter of FHS where the Mean 6 would return?

That’s another thing I’ve given some consideration. I’ve batted around a few ideas for how they could return, but I’d probably give them updated designs so they don’t look like the Mane Six anymore. We’ll see.

SudokuBrony from FIMfiction asks: Do you have any convention plans this year? Would love to see you at TrotCon possibly.

Sadly right now it’s just Wellsboro Comic Con. I would only be able to attend one of the closer MLP cons (TrotCon or Seaquestria Fest) if I could vendor and also if they get rid of their mask and vaccine requirements entirely.

SudokuBrony from FIMfiction asks: Have you thought of turning your stories into audio dramas or audio plays?

Oh I’d love to do that if I could! A few people have asked me if there’s anyone I’d like to ask to help out with it. I don’t think there’s enough interest from anyone who can do it professionally. If FHS and MLSiaD get far more popular and there’s a lot of demand, I might approach some people, or I might just wait till a team of people ask if they can do it and if I’d like to help. I’d be down for helping out a little, but it would be a ton of work, and it’s not 2012 anymore so I don’t know if there’s any interest in such a project. I will say this though: If you guys want to see this come to fruition and see my stories get more appreciation in general, the best you can do is tell your friends and post about it on other social media, linking the chapters and art and such. Make a big deal about it and others will notice!

Myzor King of War from FIMfiction asks: Will Tex have any big roles as I would love to learn more of him.

I am trying to use Tex more. He’s had his moments, but there should be an episode where he has a much bigger role to play. I’m glad he got some good moments to shine in MBFPW, but I can do more.

Myzor King of War from FIMfiction asks: Will you include the other big brother ponies as they and Tex could have their own adventure or something?

If I can think of something to do with them, maybe.

Myzor King of War from FIMfiction asks: Will Lavan show up soon?

Yes, I just need to figure out how to insert him. He has great potential for a villain and I’ve already canonized him as a historical figure through Super Dragon Warriors.

Avoidingfever17 from FIMfiction asks: Would flurry want a sister?

Definitely, but I haven’t decided on that yet.

Avoidingfever17 from FIMfiction asks: Who's your favorite of the new characters?

I love pretty much all of them. I really love the dragon characters like Spike’s family and Nighty and Butter’s dragon friends they’ve met so far. I’ve put a lot of heart and soul into them and treat them with care in writing them. I work extra hard to make them cute and lovable and have great personalities, and above all, a really colorful and well-thought out design. The art that has turned out for them astounds even me. I also really like what I have going on with some villains like the Brotherhood of Grogar and the Cult of Eternal Night. The villains are being written as legitimate threats and with some depth to them. Like we saw with Noctura, there are villains with the potential to reform, but others are pure evil.

Avoidingfever17 from FIMfiction asks: Is Grogar Secretly discord?

Lol, what do I look like to you, a writer from MLPFIM? *shots fired*

All jokes aside, no, he’s not Discord in disguise this time around. I’m not fooling around with Grogar, and he’s not fooling around either. The guy is straight-up dangerous and you’ll see that in “Ghost of Grogar”.

Kitsuneboy28 from DA asks: Will we get to see Pinkie and Buttercream interact more?

In time. Pinkie and Cheese are on their honeymoon right now, but I haven’t written them in for any of the next few stories coming up, but I could find a way to fit them in since they’ll be settling down in Ponyville. Their major role during the arc of Flurry’s first summer in Ponyville is kind of complete, but it doesn’t mean I can’t insert them into future stories. There are a few cute ideas I have of Pinkie and Butter working on some big celebration together.

BlueandSilverWolf from DA asks: Have you considered bringing back Lightning Dust and Wind Rider if so what would you do with them?

Not yet. I’m not really interested enough in either of them to give it a try, but I could come up with something. Maybe Wind Rider would be more likely since we only saw him once. Lightning Dust kind of feels like she’s already had her arc completed in the show, but anything could happen.

BlueandSilverWolf from DA asks: What does Svengallop have against Twilight and the other royals because the way I see it shouldn't Applejack be the one he'd be mad at because she exposed him to Coloratura.

Well we never saw him visibly notice what Applejack was doing, whereas he saw Twilight doing that playback spell to expose him. He most likely figured out Applejack was in on it too, and he would know who all of Twilight’s friends are since that is public knowledge. He already hated anypony from the Equestrian countryside, much like how we see some rich city folk hating on working-class Americans from their ivory towers. Don’t forget that the group he belongs to hates the royal family and Equestria’s way of governing. He would see Twilight as more of a threat, but I’m sure he has a loathing for Applejack too if he is aware of what she did to him. Svengallop and his ilk were inspired by shady Hollywood agents and celebrities that openly despise America and its patriotism. They hate Equestria the same way.

BlueandSilverwolf from DA asks: When Chrysalis gets reformed will Scutellum become the new leader of the bad Changelings?

If she is reformed, and probably, but maybe there’s another that could take over. Every hive needs a queen…

Tigerman531 from DA asks: Possible crossover specials?

We’ll get there…

Jamisjon from DA asks: What other characters from the show will appear in future stories, like Saffron, Coco Pommel, or Fancy Pants and Fleur de Lis?

If any writing requires them to make an appearance or have a major role, they will be used. I do like Coco Pommel. I’d love to use her in my stories.

AceBlazeWing from DA asks: Do you have plans to expand on the lore of other creature cultures the way you’ve done for the changelings and dragons? If so, which one would be the most interesting to explore?

We’ve already kinda gotten plenty of lore for most of them in the show like yaks, hippogriffs and griffons. We never got much for donkeys, goats and cattle, which is why I have those three represented in the Brotherhood of Grogar, and we might see some culture and lore explored for their races and Tambelon where they come from. It doesn’t mean I’ll completely ignore yaks, hippogriffs or griffons though. If the writing calls for it, I might delve into them and make my own lore to add on. I’ve already used griffons in “Age of the Alicorns” and I would like to show how their kingdom has been vastly improved since Twilight came into power. Spike’s entry in the “Journals of the Council of Friendship” talks a bit about it.

AceBlazeWing from DA asks: Is there any antagonist, however minor, that hasn’t reappeared from the show so far that you consider unlikely to ever change their ways?

Characters like the Pony of Shadows (who seems to be a separate entity from Stygian) and the Mean Six fit this category. I consider them to be like demons and are thus totally evil and impossible to reform. Minor villains that aren’t really a world-ending threat (Prince Blueblood, Gladmane, Lightning Dust, Wind Rider, etc) could come back to cause more trouble and if they ever grew old and felt bad about what they’d done, that just might not be explored and can be left up to the reader. You never know what I might do with them.

AceBlazeWing from DA asks: I don’t consider myself musically-talented enough to do so personally, but I am curious: has anyone done or offered to do a vocal cover of any of the instrumental pieces you make for your songs?

Funny you should ask, cuz a few months ago I announced that I would take some samples of people singing along to “We’re Going on an Adventure” and literally only one person sent an audition for Nighty. I am a little shy to reach out to some well-known singers in the fandom as I feel they don’t have time for little ol’ me, but I just want some people who are talented singers that sound right. I have several songs with finalized music, but no voices, and I’m not really up for singing in any of them myself. I feel like I could pull off doing Nightwatch rather well, but my singing is very rusty. Again, spread word of my series in order to show more interest in the fandom, and maybe someday some really talented individuals will come to my aid.

Dr4gonH3ro18 from DA asks: Will previous villains the Mane Six fought like King Sombra, the Dazzlings, and others return to Flurry Heart's Story?

Everyone keeps asking about Sombra, and I’ve already gone into more detail about how I have a hard time figuring out what to do with him, but I don’t think I’ve talked about the Dazzlings yet. The answer is the same in being I am not sure how to fit them in, but they could work really well for a story one day. They can’t stay trapped in the EqG world forever, and I’d love to see if I can write them in one day, but we’ll see.

bHenny4195Mai from DA asks: Are we going to see more characters in Flurry Heart's story like Ember, Garble, Gabby, Burnt Oak, Diamond Tiara, Silver Spoon, Babs Seed, Braeburn, Trouble Shoes, Apple Bloom, and Sweetie Belle?

Don’t forget I’ve already revealed that Sweetie Belle will be playing a role in “Sound and Flurry”, but Applebloom has already appeared in a flashback in “Apple Family Memories”, though she will also come into the current events of the story in an upcoming episode. Those others could appear when the writing calls for it. Burnt Oak is Chip and Annie’s only surviving granddad, so I really need to use him too. I’ll find a way. Oh and Braeburn showed up with the buffalos in MBFPW.

bHenny4195Mai from DA asks: Will we get to see more of Tirek, Scorpan, and their parents in future stories?

Tirek is still hanging around in Equestria to redeem himself, so he will likely show up from time to time, but I need to figure out what to do with Scorpan, Vorak and Haydon. I definitely want to use all of them again.

bHenny4195Mai from DA asks: Are we going to see more of the rest of the apple family in future stories?

We could if I can figure out how to use them.

Noah13442 from DA asks: Based on the episode Anne or Beast, will Megan Williams be teleported to Equestria by a magical artifact and meet Flurry Heart?

You’re lucky I know you’re talking about Amphibia or this would be awkward. I still don’t know what to do with Megan, but if I figure something out, I won’t be giving away spoilers for it, but the synopsis of said episode would reveal it probably.

Noah13442 from DA asks: Do you think Flurry will have an adventure after her summer vacation with her friends?

There is more to come after her first summer in Ponyville. Much more.

Noah13442 from DA asks: Just like Lilo had Ani Pelekai, will Flurry have a daughter who looks like her in the future?

I had to Google this, and I think I remember learning we got an adult Lilo at some point, but I had no idea her daughter looked just like her and wears the same outfit! If Flurry has a daughter much like her, we won’t see that in forever, so don’t get too attached to the idea right now, but it is a cute one.

Jayvron13 from DA asks: Are there any new or returning places we should expect in the future?

In “Rubble Trouble”, we’ll see Nordo Dracos again. In MLSiaD we’ll eventually get to Soder Dracos and will see Ester Dracos again and even Tambelon much later on. If you’re talking about locations from the show: there’s plenty to work with. The “Pearls Before Swine” episode takes place in Canterlot and the Grand Galloping Gala will happen right at the end of Flurry’s summer, so we’ll be there too. In “Changing My Mind,” we’ll see Dicord’s realm and another very secret location that I will not speak of just yet. That’s just what I have planned for S2 and the rest of MLSiaD, but things are subject to change and we could see new world-building that even I am not prepared for!

Jayvron13 from DA asks: What qualities of Flurry Heart and her friends are your favorite?

I like when I can balance their flaws with their good points. Flurry is smart and outgoing, but can be persnickety and too sure of herself; Pound is wise and mature, but butts heads with Flurry a lot and can be bossy; Pumpkin is a sweetheart and silly, but she gets easily distracted like Pinkie Pie; Stormy is brave and loyal, but also arrogant and immature; Chip is smart and dependable, but a bit of a know-it-all; and Annie is a gentle soul, but also naïve and scares easily. They are enjoyable to write when they have good moments and bad moments as characters. I am looking forward to “Ghost of Grogar” cuz they are going to have some moments where they really can’t stand each other, but they find themselves in a crazy situation where they have to work together in order to fix it, and the end result is going to be astounding. This story is going to rock!

Jayvron13 from DA asks: How is the Age of the Alicorns currently progressing?

Dangit! Someone asked about AotA again! Sorry guys, I really need to get back to updating that. I think I’ve talked about this before, but I’m afraid to continue cuz my writing was not terrific back then and the next chapter is going to feel like it’s written by someone else since there’s such a gap in time for when I last wrote it. And here I was just getting to the really good part where the plot takes an unexpected turn and we finally get to see what happens with Accord. What I’ve thought of is going back and doing massive updates to the writing, but if anyone wants to see what the original was like just for archival purposes, it is still on Archive of Our Own (AO3) so I guess it could work. One thing’s for sure, I really should finish that story before I finish Season 2 of FHS, and there’s a good reason why, but I won’t say.

FanoDisney from DA asks: What’s your idea on how Flurry and co will finally meet Nightwatch because I was hoping for an episode that featured celebrating his and Buttercream’s shared birthday?

Well Spike and Butter’s birthdays are in early July and the wedding was some time before that. They are twins because their eggs were laid at the same time, but Spike hatched a few days prior. Spike and Butter are celebrating their birthday in “Ghost of Grogar” with their siblings while Flurry and the others are spending the night in the clubhouse. As for Nightwatch, we all know he and Butter share birthdays since he hatched her on his birthday, but Nighty won’t be around for that sadly. Again, he’s got some work to do but he’ll how up and the kids will meet him eventually.

FanoDisney from DA asks: Will there be an Apple Family Reunion with Tex, Chip and Annie?

“Rotten to the Core” focuses heavily on Chip and Annie, but you’ll see Tex. I don’t have anything in mind for an Apple Family Reunion just yet. Applebloom is coming up in a story too.

FanoDisney from DA asks: How is the progress on the Journal of the Council of Friendship going?

GAH! There’s another thing I really need to get back to updating! Sorry I kinda lost the motivation for JotCoF, but I really need to finish that as well. I just have AJ, Rarity and Fluttershy left. Writing all the stories has distracted me so much, it’s easy to forget I have that waiting around too.

KaptainJay from DA asks: Will we see what happened to more minor villains (Gladmane, Prince Blueblood, Wind Rider, etc.) in later stories?

I already talked about Wind Rider earlier, so we need not repeat that; I have thought about doing something with Gladmane, but nothing is in stone yet; but as for Prince Blueblood: remember when I had that one story like 10+ years ago called “Pride vs Prejudice?” No? Yeah, I’ve been putting that story off way longer than Age of the Alicorns, which is too bad cuz it could’ve been such a good story. I think I literally only wrote the prologue chapter and then the rest is history. It was about how Celestia and the Mane Six set it up so Blueblood and Rarity could get along and bury the hatchet. Things don’t go as planned at first, but they do eventually become friends and apologies are made. That was supposed to take place probably some time during Season 2 or before it. I could recycle that story idea, or I could just reference it in an FHS episode one day. I feel like Blueblood had some good potential to have an episode where he grows up. I was going to show how in that story, he slowly starts to mature as he gets to know the Mane Six and spend time in Ponyville, but Rarity is in disbelief that it’s happening so she just makes it worse by refusing to admit he could be changing. Although this story has been on the backburner longer than any of my other MLP stories, I still think the idea was a good one.

KaptainJay from DA asks: Will any characters or stories from the comics and books appear or be referenced?

Again, maybe but nothing is guaranteed.

Amazingangus76 from DA asks: Will Stygian make an appearance in "Flurry Heart's Story"?

Possibly. He is kind of underappreciated and I really should think of something.

Roman-Santos from DA asks: Will we see the other creatures in Flurry Heart's Story like griffins, hippogryphs, kirins, zebras and more?

I don’t have any major plans for them in S2, but maybe eventually.

EmilyLsArt from DA asks: Will there be a movie and/or specials for Flurry Heart's Story just like MLP FiM had theirs?

I consider the upcoming S2 finale to have a bit of a movie-length thing going on. Perhaps MBFPW had that same feeling due to how long it went on too. Each episode of MLSiaD kind of has that same feeling, but the one big problem studios have with making tie-in films or multi-media in general is that not everyone is going to keep up with those, so it’s good to know this is all just me writing and putting it on the internet. I hope enough people who are reading FHS are also reading MLSiaD and vice versa, but that’s why characters from either story are appearing in the other one like we’ve seen with Buttercream and her friends. It should get people interested enough to give the other one a try and see how they connect.

EmilyLsArt from DA asks: Will Eris (the new draconequus villain in your FHS gallery) have a name change since Discord already has a cousin named Eris in the Nightmare Knights comic miniseries?

No and I don’t consider that latter thing to be canon. I still am sticking with my headcanon that Discord started off as a pony and there are no other creatures like him with the exception of my OC Eris. Discord is supposed to be completely unique, but Eris technically doesn’t exist or rather she shouldn’t. You’ll see what this all means eventually.

Sazerlite from DA asks: Are there are any previous moments that you would want to go back and illustrate someday?

Holy crap, yes! You have no idea how many scenes I’ve wanted to draw but don’t have time to!

Sazerlite from DA asks: Are you open to these stories being thoroughly critiqued? Or are they not meant to be taken as serious works of literature?

I get a little nervous of the prospect of this at times. I am critical of my own work and am good about taking criticisms, but what I can’t stand are when people come in like “Wow, this really doesn’t work! Your writing is terrible! You should stick to art!” and it just becomes nothing but petty insults. That’s when it becomes evident the critic has little to no reading experience and is probably just a hater or jealous or something. My writing is not perfect by any means, but I always believe a good critic should either balance it out by saying what is good and bad. And if they only have criticisms to give, they need to be understanding and not flat-out tell the author to stop writing. They need to make it clear that they are there to help. This is why I’ve been shy to send my stories in to EqD to post on their site. I am not sure it would get past the “pre-readers” and I just know the comments will be terrible cuz EqD is notorious for having really bad comments. I will probably just ignore those and look in the comments on FIMfic instead.

Sazerlite from DA asks: Would you want this series to be super popular, like Fallout Equestria levels of recognition? Or would you think that's too much pressure?

Well I’d be lying if I said no. I have been excited for the possibility that this series could get huge in the fandom like FoE, Friendship is Witchcraft, .MOV, Rainbow Dash Presents, etc. I’ve kind of been waiting for it to get popular more organically rather than get desperate and force it into something like EqD, but if it got more fans and people made more fanart for it, that could help spread the word. It could lead to pressure also, I admit. I have already had some people breathing down my neck about when the next episode is or if I’m going to finish his or that. It gets pretty annoying when people ask me if the series will continue even though I’ve written post after post about the future of the series, obviously proving it will continue. What I’m really looking forward to is people telling me how my stories make them happy or this character inspires them to be a better person. Lauren Faust has had people come to her at conventions and thank her for making MLPFIM because it saved them from suicide. I’d love to have that same feeling one day. Whatever I do, I don’t want to do it for my own image. I hope I can build off of all this with my own original content one day, but I will do it for the love of the material and not to further my reputation.

KaijuLord100 from DA asks: If there are any new characters coming, would you say one of them would be voiced by Eddie Murphy?

I can’t think of one right now, but that is possible and would be pretty funny.

IDontBeliveInU from DA asks: Will cozy glow/half note play in important role in Ghost Of Grogar when it comes out? Provided if she's in that story.

Yes. Cozy plays a very important role in GoG. She’s going to do a good job of redeeming her character in it.




And that is all for now! Thanks to everyone who sent questions!

it's okay. I usually correct grammar, but if I corrected that mistake, people would read the original comment and be confused. XD

SpikeSmolder fan from FIMfiction asks: Will Zeb and Svengallop get what's coming to them? Up to this point that's your only story that had a bad ending. (Made me wished Spike walloped both of them)

Yes.

Good:pinkiecrazy:

Jam5022 from FIMfiction asks: Will we get to see any stories that focus on the Student Six

I’ve already revealed synopses for the first 9 episodes of S2, and one of them is about the Student Six, so yes.

Yay!:pinkiehappy:

Harmony Passionflower from FIMfiction asks: Are Winona, Opalescence, and Owlowiscious still alive? I did some research, and border collies live 12-15 years, Persian cats 12-17 years, and owls (depending on the species) 15-30 years. I was particularly curious about Winona since we saw her puppies or (grandpuppies) in "The Last Problem." Also, where is Tank? Pet tortoises live 50-100 years, so he should be around for a while.

I’d like to think Opal and Owlowiscious are still around, but sadly Winona probably passed on not too long ago. She would leave behind some pups and grand-pups though. And yeah, Tank is obviously still around. I’m mad that I keep forgetting to fit him in to a story involving Stormy

We saw some of them during “The Magic of Friendship Grows”

Harmony Passionflower from FIMfiction asks: I know the MLP comics aren't technically canon, but I'm aware that Spike at one point met a cute dragoness named Mina. She's into comic books just like him and even runs a comic book store (quite fitting since she only appears in the comics). While it's never explicitly stated, she and future Spike appear to be together in one of the last comics. Would you consider her as a potential girlfriend for your Spike?

She doesn’t interest me so she will probably never be in FHS, and if she does, she would definitely not be Spike’s girlfriend. I’m still working out a love interest for Spike and I think I’ve got a good idea coming along for that

Can’t wait to meet her :twilightsmile:

SudokuBrony from FIMfiction asks: Have you thought of turning your stories into audio dramas or audio plays?

Oh I’d love to do that if I could!

That would be really cool to see.

Avoidingfever17 from FIMfiction asks: Is Grogar Secretly discord?

Lol, what do I look like to you, a writer from MLPFIM? *shots fired*

AceBlazeWing from DA asks: Do you have plans to expand on the lore of other creature cultures the way you’ve done for the changelings and dragons? If so, which one would be the most interesting to explore?

What about the Kirin?

Noah13442 from DA asks: Based on the episode Anne or Beast, will Megan Williams be teleported to Equestria by a magical artifact and meet Flurry Heart?

You’re lucky I know you’re talking about Amphibia or this would be awkward. I still don’t know what to do with Megan, but if I figure something out, I won’t be giving away spoilers for it, but the synopsis of said episode would reveal it probably.

Maybe that’s for another story and I could definitely see an Amphibia situation happening in G5

Noah13442 from DA asks: Do you think Flurry will have an adventure after her summer vacation with her friends?

There is more to come after her first summer in Ponyville. Much more.

Amazingangus76 from DA asks: Will Stygian make an appearance in "Flurry Heart's Story"?

Possibly. He is kind of underappreciated and I really should think of something

We did enjoy Sonumbula’s appearance so I’m pretty sure we would love to see any of the other Pillars again.

So they'll look different from their canon counterparts?

Lol, what do I look like to you, a writer from MLPFIM? *shots fired*

Hehehe
Still upset with that ending I WANT COZY REFORMED DAMNIT!!!
