Knightmares Cancellation · 7:59am Oct 6th, 2014
When I first wrote Knightmares, I didn't really plot out where it was going. Mostly it became a series of events that just kept escalating, but I couldn't really go anywhere with it. I've also seen a lot more of the gallery that Skipper and Midnight came from, and part of why I can't keep going with it is how different the two worlds are. Because of that, I've decided to cancel it, though I'll leave it up as a record of what came before.
Even so, though, I don't want to let the characters go to waste. There's a few pictures around the gallery of the foalhoods of Skipper and Midnight. I think that a lot can still be done with them. "Always write the most interesting part of your characters' lives," is a piece of advice I heard once, and I reckon there's a part of their lives that's more interesting than what happened in Knightmares.
Expect the replacement to pop up within the week. Oh, and I might write something for Oneshotober as well, though it'll probably involve Mane 6 rather than borrowed OCs.
Damn, but if that's how you wish to roll with it, then that's what shall be so. Rather enjoyed the odd uniqueness of the plot and the character backgrounds

2510937 That's why I left the original up: in case anyone wanted to see the slightly insane original version. Though, if insanity is what you liked about it, it wasn't quite what I was going for in the first place... Hopefully you'll find something to like about the new one, though.

Plot-wise it was insanity, but that sheer audacity is one of the reasons I enjoyed it. Good luck with the next piece!
