The new beginning of a story that I am trying to write!!! · 2:51pm Jan 14th, 2013
Change.
We all want it at some point of our life.
We want to change how we look, how we act, or that stupid light bulb that keeps blinking in the refrigerator.
But then again, some of us don't want change or are to cheep to buy one of those long lasting light bulbs instead of the cruddy kind with the bad lighting.
But first, allow me to clarify...
How badly do we want change?
Some people act ignorant, always wanting their lives to change because they think change is exciting, that it will be fun. At almost any normal point in time that is true and most any person would welcome it, see it as a new adventure. Well you know what?
This time it's not normal.
And I'll prove to you why you always watch what you wish for.
Especially when that wish relates to magical talking cartoon ponies.
You know what? You berate yourself too much. I thought that was an intriguing description for the story; and that refrigerator light bulb made me laugh, lol.
Hehe, that could be a running pun within the story, comedy moments that run along in the story. Something akin to the running jokes in Kkat's FO:E and Somber's Project Horizons. In the original, Littlepip is repeatedly embarrassed by a certain unicorn, and Blackjack has a short horn which develops as an inferiority complex (especially when she started running into alicorns), as well as bondage jokes. Running gags like that add a kind of nostalgic comedy and tension breaker. Example, Sam in Love and Tolerance has a problem with blushing (which is similar to Littlepip now that I think about it), and therefore that's something of a light laugh tool that I use. Something with light bulbs could easily be a similar tool for you.
But yeah, this description is actually pretty good. It had enough detail to get the point of the story vaguely across, while being obscure enough to make the reader want to know what happens.
And I wasn't mad about the "bastard" comment. I thought it was funny. If you knew how my friends and I talked to each other, then you wouldn't feel bad at all lol.

Thanks, repeated gag, huh?
I think I actually made a reference to the light bulb thing already in the story... O_O
