100 Follower... uh... "Special" · 8:31am Feb 14th, 2013
Well then, another long day of work in the bag. My reviewing queue is empty, I've got a nice buffer on my PF6-CMC videos, it's not my week to do an article for the Angels... I just might actually have some time to write! Maybe I could even pick up where I left off on Thes—
: Pavvycakes! Pavvycakes! Look!
Okay, first, stop calling me that. Never call me that. Second, you're a voice in my head and I refuse to talk to you. Third, what is it?
: Your follower count has crossed the minimum threshold such that it requires three digits to represent itself, under the most prevalent numeral system.
Fourth, if this is going to be one of those blogposts, i.e. wherein I pat myself on the f
ing back, and further wherein I talk to a pony-voice in my head via script format (both of which went out of style years ago), can you at least try to stay in character?
: No, because fourth wall and reasons.
Ugh, whatever. So, one hundred followers, huh? That's... Okay, you got me. I'm touched. I mean, yes, my pessimistic instincts are telling me that I've gotten as much popularity as I've gotten (in my tiny corner of the world) moreso due to my affiliation with certain things than with my own talents as a writer. But, a number of you here have left comments to the contrary, and really, earnestly, I appreciate it! I didn't have high aspirations when I jumped into the fanfiction game. All I wanted to do was write stories that I cared about, and hopefully, it would resonate with a handful of people on the intrawebs. And from the looks of it, it really did resonate! More than I could've ever hoped, from the passion I've seen in some of these comments. So whether you've been following me for one day or for four hundred and sixty six days, seriously, thank you for believing in me!
: The proletariat demand a ritualistic offering of merriment as purchase for their rapt fealty.
Ignoring the fact that you're going out of your way to sound OOC, as well as that I'm pretty sure calling my fans "proletariat" is a bit of a slight... I suppose I have to agree! Never done one of these "X Follower Special" dealies, but they seem customary on the intrawebs, and I am nothing if not a sheeple.
: Sheeple is plural. The word you're looking for is "sheepson."
I am certain that is not the word I'm looking for. Anyway, try to focus for a minute here. How do I celebrate this? What if I finally posted a new chapter on Thesis?
: pffffft gyahahaha *snort* nyahaha. No. No one wants to see that.
...pretty sure everyone who favoritied it would disagr—
: Draw a pony!
What? No.
: Why not?!
I haven't drawn anything since middle school, and for good reason. I suck at drawing.
: You suck at writing!
...
: ...
...y'know, that logic is surprisingly sound. Very well then! As punishment for so foolishly believing in my literary chops, I'll suffer my fans to behold my skills of an artist
: Who are you gonna draw? Who are you gonna draw?
Well, seeing as Pinkie is (allegedly) the voice in my head, and seeing as Pinkie was the titular character of one of my stories, obviously I'll draw Twilight.
:
Stop that. You can't use the same icon for your face and your emoticon. That's just not allowed.
: Whatever, just hurry up and show us! ... Hello? ... What's taking so long? ... Seriously, in the hours it's taking you to scribble on the back of a napkin, SS&E probably churned out another 35k tearjerker.
He does that every Wednesday, though.
: I knew it! You were just ignoring me!
Just, shh shh shh, STFU for a second.... And... done!
: *snerk* Nice sketch, Joseco. I call this one, "Twi-lump Stoner". Wait a sec, lemme hang this up on my fridge.
Hey, screw you. For how bad I suck at art, that came out much better than expected. I'm willing to call this a Pyrrhic victory.
: Seriously, don't encourage him. Now he's gonna start doodling for every excuse of a milestone he can think of. Finished his buy-ten-sandwiches-get-one-free card? Sickly looking Rainbow Dash sketch, and no chapter update.
Oh hush, this was just me wast—I mean, enjoying—an evening.
: Why didn't you ink the rest of her? I really liked her giraffe legs and pig butt.
You're starting to harsh my mellow.
: You're adopted.
Anyway... the point of this was, thanks for following me! Clearly, at some point I must've made something you like, so... I'll try to keep making more stuff like that! And less stuff like this.
You suffer from schizophrenia or something?
I lol'd. Tell Pinkie I said hi.
That was quite funny.
Pinkie! We could have gotten another chapter of Thesis out of this...
It was quite funny though.
Pinkie tends to haunt my writer's block as well. I drown her out with beer. Literally... drown her. In an ocean of sweet, sweet Guinness
You make drawing... fun!
It seems all the major authors on the site eventually develop a second voice in their head. I wonder, in the ten years it will take me to gain 100 followers, will I get a pony voice? Hoping it'll be Iron Will so he can keep me pumped.
Nice going!
>Just, shh shh shh, STFU for a second....

What the fuck is this, Pav? An ellipsis with four periods?
Hit the bricks, pal, and beat it, because you are going out!
But seriously, congratulations, and nice drawing, bro. Don't quit your day job...

: You're adopted.
I can see it! I can see it! Pinkie's evil clone comes to taunt us with her soulless, pink eyes!
She must be the one who slipped Twilight those hash brownies!
SOMBRA'S TEATS, that looks worse than it did at 3AM, rofl. And I thought it looked pretty bad then, too. Oh well, I regret nothing.
omfg shut up i'm working on it

Unfortunately, less writer's block, and more an inability to remain fo—ooo hey, look, cute fillies!

Wait...you have a voice in your head too?
...Why don't I remember paying for this then?
So, great job on getting 100 followers Pav!
Congrats on the milestone.
