I'm still alive?? O.O

Hello there I am- uh, name's not important but people who have read my fics know me as Spitfire, love that name, and to those who have been around looking for me I just want you all to know that I haven't forgotten about the series...believe me I really do want to get back into this and just keep on writing I just don't know why I've been away for so long...I hope its not laziness, how long have I been away? I don't even remember, I've lost track of time but it doesn't feel that long since I left, y'know? Actually I'm supposed to have at least been up to Uncommon Connection III by now if I just kept writing but I took a break to try to improve my writing since I wasn't really satisfied with my own ability. As I was off practicing I ended up falling more along the lines of writing original work with original characters, my own story. Then I got ideas for a survival/horror game I got the urge to try and do. I've just been doing a lot of work on those but never once forgot about MlP. I was actually supposed to have most of this stuff done way before season 4 even aired but look at how far I feel behind.

I have lots of ideas that I want to dish out. For example:

The idea of Star Swirl the Bearded-"He was apparently too caught up in his studies and self improvement to figure out the last piece of the puzzle to unlock true transcended: Knowledge of the power of friendship. Princess Celestia obviously knew of this and saw the potential in Twilight from a young age that rivaled, if not surpassed, that of Star Swirl but at the same time she saw the same flaw in Twilight as well. Taking her under her wing, Celestia guided Twilight down the path that could lead her to surpass Star Swirl giving her just enough of a push to keep her on the right track but staying out of the way enough to allow her to improve herself and get there on her own."

Or how I wanted to go deeper into the character Memori. There's so much I feel people don't understand about her. I'll provide another example:

She was originally born to provide sanctuary for the memories of André and Babe and their time in Ponyville. She was created from the Elements of Harmony to provide this shelter, the memories and connection the two have with Equestria is far too powerful to just be forgotten and as such Memori was born.

The memories themselves reformed inside of her and has rearranged themselves to fit Memori's life, the memory rearrange also effects other Ponies who knew André and Babe and as such will view Memori as the one they know instead of the two. The memories rearrange themselves so there wouldn't be any questions involving either of the two boys while Memori is alive.

Originally André and Babe weren't supposed to return to Ponyville, the two being gone would mean the life Memori had (though originally belonging to Babe and André) has crafted into her own and she freely lives the life the two boys are forced to leave behind.

The two humans departure meant the birth of a new Pony who would rightfully live the life they once had, therefore never truly losing the friendship, just reforming it.

Which gives birth to a new pony idea: When memories of a human are left behind a pony is created in their place. The pony lives on with memories of the human's time spent in the pony world however they are rearranged in ways to fit in with the ponies life and others around them. The memories of the human are left behind because they are not meant to exist in their world world.

(Below goes with those who have read all the way up to Uncommon Connection III on Fanfiction.net. Most of these notes were written down sometime after Season 3 finished but before Equestria Girls was much of a big thing or even released XD)
I was supposed to run more chapters for Uncommon Connection III that deals with personal struggles and growth of the mane six after the whole idea of Alicorn Twilight. Lets take Twilight

• Becomes a stronger leader and princess as series 3 continues but still have questions, concern and doubt deep down.
• Has to make a tough choice between being a princess and having more time with her friends in Ponyville.

And so on. I had idea's to explore these types of things before Season 4 aired. So this was around the time season 3 ended and before Equestria Girls.

I also had the idea of another adaption called My little Pony: Recollection. An in between scenario that takes place in between the first and second half of series 3. The events of Recollection will set up hints for events that'll eventually happen in the future. It will also set the stage for the second half of Uncommon Connection III.

Twilight receives a mysterious letter and tries to uncover its meaning along with Princess Celestia. The letter's meaning, while short, goes far beyond Twilight's capacity of understanding and connects well back into the past.

Recollection will go into detail about Star Swirl's previous misdoings and misdeeds in order to gain Alicorn power, including the ones he hurt in the process. Recollection will also show a compilation of flashbacks that links to each message.

So as you can see I have more than enough idea's, hell I even had idea's for a prequel so I definitely wasn't slacking off this whole time...but what was I doing? I don't know and I'm sorry my reply is so lengthy but I wanted to give you some good explanation on what's been going on since you've been waiting for so long. I didn't know I had so much support actually. I thank you for reading everything I had before this though man it means a lot and don't worry I haven't forgotten about this story.
