Okay, I admit it, I'm probably not your mom. But odds are I'm old enough to be. Now with Patreon account (under alarajrogers) and short stories on Amazon (under Alara Rogers).

    Dream log, epic Fluttercord edition

    Had a dream during a nap that is perfectly suited to be a story; I'm not even sure I need to tweak it.

    So in the dream, Fluttershy was dying of old age, and Discord couldn't fix it. (She also had insulin-resistant diabetes, but that's kind of less important.) Discord was very upset by this, and decided to take drastic steps to prevent it.

    Dammit, just discovered a friend here's been dead for two years...

    Today I learned that Jordan died in April 2021, and I had no idea. I was re-reading some of my older fanfics, saw his comments, thought, "Huh, I wonder how Jordan's doing", and the answer is, he's not. Dammit.

    FUCKING DONE FINALLY

    "The God of Breaking Rules In The Land of the Dead" is one of my oldest stories on this site. It's not my oldest incomplete -- "The King Who Would Be Man" and "Stumble In My Footsteps" are both older, all part of my initial rush in 2013-14 when I'd first gotten into the fandom and the writing came like a river. But it is old, posted almost 10 years ago (closer to 9 years, 11 months), and

    A thing y'all should maybe know

    I may or may not make the change here on Fimfiction, but on Archive of our Own and Fanfiction.net, I am changing my handle to Kaleidolon. Mainly as a branding differentiator between fanfic and profic. It's not like I can hide that Alara J Rogers writes fanfic, not after posting it to the Internet for literally 29 years, but when I get published in real life I want it to be slightly

Fluttershy and Discord: They Fight Crime · 6:09pm Feb 28th, 2014

I just read a ponified rewrite of the quote from Liam Neeson in "Taken" about his specialized skills, and it brought this mental image to my mind:

"Um, this isn't the kind of thing I'm very good at. I, um, I have a particular set of skills. I'm, uh, I'm kind, you see. I'm good at making friends. And if you would just open up your eyes and look into mine, I'm sure we could be good friends. I'm sure you would want to tell me where your friends took the Princesses. Because you see, one of those Princesses is my close friend and, um, I'm sure if you would just open up your eyes, you would agree that it's mean to kidnap ponies and you would be happy to help me get my friend back and the other Princesses? It would make me really happy.

"But if you don't want to do it that way? Um, I guess that's okay, though it's maybe not the best choice for you to make, and I really do think you ought to reconsider? Because I know you're not scared of me, I do understand that. I'm really pretty weak and helpless. I'm just good at taking care of sick creatures, and making friends, and I admit there's not a lot I can do to you if you refuse to open your eyes and you refuse to tell me where you're hiding the Princesses. I'm only good at making friends. It's just, I'm really good at making friends. So I have a lot of friends.

"Now, your eyes are closed, so you probably can't tell which of my friends is breathing down your neck. Um, his name's Discord, he's the Spirit of Chaos and Disharmony, and he would really really like it if I told him it was okay to cause some chaos on you. Because he was friends with the Princesses too, and also, he really likes using chaos to hurt other creatures and destroy their minds? But that's mean, so I told him he couldn't do that anymore? But you took the Princesses, and you won't tell me what you did with them, and you won't open up and look into my eyes so I can't make you tell me? So... I'm thinking... I might have to let Discord have you. But I'm not going to want to watch, because I'm a very sensitive pony, and it'll make me feel awful to know how badly you're suffering, so... I'm going to give you one chance.

"Open your eyes and look into mine, and tell me where the Princesses are. Or I'm going to leave this room. And when I do, there will be no one here to tell Discord he can't do anything he wants to you. Anything at all."

"Please, don't open your eyes. Fluttershy never lets me have any fun. I haven't had a chance to have a living being for a toy since I reformed, and I am so looking forward to the opportunity to play with you."

I won't tell you all the emotions that gave me. A few of them you don't want to hear about. :twilightblush:

They would be awesome as good cop and bad cop too. :trollestia:

HAHAHAHAHA, this needs a cover art :rainbowlaugh:

This is the second best idea, second only to the insurance company idea you posted a few days ago.

Oh my. It's the quiet ones who are dangerous.

That is the BEST example of good cop bad cop I've EVER seen
