Boy would I have looked the fool. A couple weeks ago I intended to make a big ol' post highlighting some realizations I'd come to after doing some writing—yes writing, you read that correctly. Here, look:
I'm sure most of y'all have noticed how slow updates have been going and the truth is, the spark just isn't there anymore. I know I've always told everyone that no matter what I'd see Outlaw through to the end a second time, but my interest has waned significantly. I haven't watched an episode of the show since the S4 finale. My ego also sustained
War Machine in all his glory. He really could fuck up Mach, nearly did too. He'll be in for a shock when he see's Mach, something along the lines of...
"WHY WON'T YOU DIE!" War machine roared, his voice augmented by his built-in speakers.
"Fool, who do you think I am? My wings are the wings that will pierce the sky. A guy like you could never hope to stop me." (Yes I hve been watching Gurren Lagann a lot lately. That speech was totally something Kamina would say.)
783080 So any thoughts on posting this image at the end of Chapter 20? Maybe do what The Last Sentinel does with Bonus Artwork? Glad to see Mach's dialogue I made up was closer to his inner thoughts than I imagined ^_^.
783096 I made Mach's description a link, and put the whole image itself up at the end of the chapter in case people don't want to pause reading to look. I tend to find pictures in the middle of a chapter wrench me out of the story.
Smart move with the image in the chapter. Have you thought of putting the image of Celestia's Grace into Chapter 10? Since you've put in the War Machine image, I figure you could do the same for that one. Who knows? Maybe one day you'll have a piece of art for every chapter
783148 I don't see why not. As for artwork of every chapter? A man can dream. I think the only way that's likely to happen is if I buy it or make it all myself (look at my page on the FoE Resource site, it's 90% vectors by yours truly!). I am the brightest shade of green at all of those fics that just generate art without money exchanging hands. Ah, the woes of the lesser-known fics!
783180 Yay Chapter 10 and 20 have art in them ^_^. Actually that reminds me, in Chapter 10 Pulsar were awaiting approval from Luna? Shouldn't that have been Applejack or maybe Applejack and Twilight Sparkle jointly?
783202 Possibly. My line of reasoning was that it went first through the Ministry Mares and then to Luna for final approval, but I'm foggy on pre-war Equestria's governmental structure and procedures.
783231 I initially figured upon re-reading, that certain companies would want to keep Pulsar out of business, except it was so new that nopony in the weapons market had a reason to fear them yet. That reminds me, since your getting close to the end of Outlaw, will you be mentioning Puppysmiles via Radio?
783247 I hadn't planned on it, solely because I've never read Pink Eyes. I tried, a little over a year now after I'd finished FoE. I had PH and Pink Eyes in front of me, and I decided to check out Pink Eyes first, because it had already been completed, but I couldn't get into it. It was too cutesy for me. That's not to say cutesy is bad, but it just wasn't for me personally.
783322 I think the cutesy aspects are what drew the attention of Kkat. If you want to include a mention of Pink Eyes, you could always reference something like around the time the Applejack's Rangers show up, Elder Clam Chowder could mention that the Route 52/Big 52 contingent are at a disadvantage in numbers, due to the minority being Applejack's Rangers. Or he could just mention how a treasure trove of technology was lost on the Big 52 by of all things, an orbital space gun.
Hi again Tofu, I don't normally do this, but I wanted to ask if you'd like to see a sketch of Razorbeak. It's not coloured yet, the artist is colouring it in, but if you'd like to see the image as it is, just lemme know and I'll link you.

Mach does tend to let his inner large ham run wild on occasion, haha.

SURPRISE ME
Hold off until it's done. Seriously, I thrive on suspense.
