Unlucky 13

Ah, Friday the 13th passed once more, and boy, was I hat with the unlucky plague. Things were pretty crappy yesterday, and overall, I'm still suffering from the after effects.

Blegh. Annoying.

Anyways, thought I'd leave a bit of an update. So, as some of you probably know, one of the twists to Okami: Equestrian Legend has been uncovered. I won't say what it is on this post, but if you pay attention, you'll know. Anyways, it just goes to show, add enough context clues and people will eventually figure things out. Anyways, the next chapter is sure to be a serious spoiler event, as well as a backstory/fight chapter. Gives some insight on my version of Okami Amaterasu, and why she's not quite the same as from other sources. However, it does make it entirely possible for this chapter to fit in between the first and second games (By giving Chibiratsu a daddy/mommy/weird japanese gender thing). So yeah, if time allows, the next chapter will be out today or tomorrow (who knows? I certainly don't.).

So, onto the next thing I want to discuss before I start talking about my next stories: .hack//Pony Protocol.

It's interesting in that it will be my second longest story on this site, despite spanning all three games.

Anyways, that particular fact doesn't matter at the moment. What matters is that soon, it's very long hiatus will be broken. Now, I know not all of you are .hack fans (which is truly tragic), but the fans of you I do have, I love to pieces, and I'm sure you'll love seeing your favorite (and maybe not favorite) characters in video game violence. I'm also sure you'll enjoy all the twists THAT story has in particular. Seriously, I love twists. I'm like M. Night. I have a problem, and I refuse to seek help. Now, as a recap of the story, we have Twilight falling into insanity, Fluttershy in a coma, Spike being hit back and forth with mood swings (some his own, some belonging to others), Rainbow being completely nuts, Pinkie being... who knows, AJ being a background character, Trixie being a PK-ing bitch.... That covers enough, honestly. Going into further details would just confuddle the mind. Anyways, stuff has been bad, Twilight has crazy powers (yay, Epitaphs), and apparently, video games are always a bad idea. Good thing Button Mash isn't allowed to play. I blame his mom. His hot, hot mom. So, when the hiatus breaks, we'll be starting at the beginning of game 2, which I'll spoil a bit: Spike isn't in a coma, but he isn't exactly in the best condition. Twilight feels responsible, and we discover that things are getting progressively worse. More ponies are falling into comas, and new strains of AIDA are going around. Yeah, it's getting real. After I finish the second game, it goes on hiatus once more until the other stories I bring up are concluded. THEN I will end it, and then more stories come along.

I also feel that I'll be able to end the Kinetica story in time. Really, it's just a simple one-shot about racing. Stories about racing are never nearly as good as actual videos/games/anime. Who cares. I like having ponies and humans in robot suits go against each other in bloodsport. It's the only HiE I'll ever do if I can help it, because honestly? I don't like HiEs. They're cliche, and kind of boring. I feel no disrespect to those who make them, and I understand that people love them. There are certainly many more approved HiE stories with better writers than I could stand against. But that doesn't mean that I, as an individual, can't dislike them. Opinions, opinions. They're what make individuals.

So, onto new business. I have a few stories planned, that I really can't wait to get started on, and will probably alternate between making chapters of each (one chapter in a story, then a chapter in the next, then a chapter in the next, and so on). So, here they are:

666 Pony:
So, I'm not sure how much of you are familiar with the manga 666 Satan (AKA O-Parts Hunter), but it's about a boy named Jio Freed who lives in a world where magical devices, known as O-Parts, are used. He himself is an O-Part user, and he's a vessel enough, he's the living imprisonment of Satan. Using this manga as a basis, I am going to create an Alternate Universe story with ponies. This will literally be the only one of its kind. I will be the origin of 666 Satan/Pony crossover stories. I feel like doing a fanciful jig. I'll be releasing the first chapter of this in tandem with the end of Okami: Equestrian Legend, so expect it some time in the upcoming year, some time in January I believe. There will be some canon characters, but note, because this isn't the canon universe, I will be manipulating them to pieces. There will also be a heavy dose of non-canon, random OCs, characters from the manga converted to ponies, and whatever else I feel like doing. Heck, I might just ask anybody who reads to submit their OC so that I can have enough cast. But as I've learned, people tend to ignore that kind of stuff.

Pinkie and Nepeta's Shipping Anthology Extravaganza:
Oh, how I am going to enjoy this. This is what will become my longest donation to the site. Featuring a very large number of chapters (and it will probably be broken into more than one story if there is a chapter limit), this will be a large collection of stories shipping 12 ponies with the 12 Alternian trolls of Homestuck. Now, alone, that would be a heavy load, since I'm shipping every character together, meaning 144 pairings. BUT, I further torture myself (as well as anyone insane enough to try reading this) by making three versions of each pairing, according to the Troll Quadrant Romance System. That's right, I am shipping them as Red/Heart ♥/Matespritship (Love-Love), Black/Spade ♠/Kismesissitude (Hate-Love), and Pale/Diamond ♦/Moirallegiance (Protective-Love). So, there is going to be a lot of craziness. First of all, it's going to be adult. Language, sex, buckets... it'll all be present. Each chapter will be it's own short story, in no way connected to the others. So, suffice it to say, reading a chapter will be equivalent to reading a story. The thing about this is that you can try to read through them all, or you could look for specific pairings. Maybe you don't like seeing Twilight and Karkat getting into a seriously heated argument, showing serious hate, then getting it on like bunnies in heat. Maybe Fluttershy and Vriska sharing tender moment is more your thing. How's about Big Mac and Equius getting down with a brohoof and discussing things like being STRONG? Everything and anything can and will go down, and considering a majority of these pairings are homosexual by nature, you should be ready for some... well, lets just say that if you don't like inappropriate things, stick to the Moirallegiance. Because of the sheer length, this isn't in that chapter roulette thing. It will come in batches, where I finish a batch of stories for a character, then I post them, then I work on another batch. At the moment, they're going according to color of romance, and pony character. So, all of Twilight Sparkle's black romances, then her red romances, then her pale romances, with all the trolls.

Angel and Devil 2
Yes, this is still a thing that is going to happen. Though, it's a lot more delayed. Honestly, I would love to start it first, but the lack of cover art is kinda a buzzkill. I actually made the original cover art through making Angel (thank god there are so many models) then recoloring him, but considering the sequel wasn't originally supposed to exist, it felt like it needed something... more to feel real. Anyways, it's certainly going to be a thing. It'll go more into detail on Devil's past after Angel left, and things will be settled with their father's true killer. Also, Fluttershy (I know all you FlutterFans are watching). It will be the official end, because I absolutely refuse to attempt to make this into a trilogy. That would literally be a bummer. This story isn't part of the little "write a chapter, move on, loop back" thing I'm doing.

The Completely Mundane Life of A College Pony
This will be the only other new story (at the moment) about my OC character. He's a unicorn going to magic college. This is a slice of life that has its romantic times, its troubling times, its times of weakness and its times of strength. There won't be any super weird out of the ordinary things, there won't be any super villains or any heroic endeavors (aside from things you just gotta do). It's not a self insert, as I already have a Ponysona (he's a nice dude, I promise), but he does share a few of my interests. Still, just look at him in a completely different light from whatever quirks of mine may have been noticed. Which they probably weren't, but hey, I like to cover all bases. I've done my deal of Team Fortress 2. I've played COD. So yeah, college. With ponies. That's all.

So this is all that I have to say. Ta-ta for now, hope you all are doing well. Love you guys and gals.
