Just a Franconian (Germany) lass who enjoys drawing cartoon ponies. Sometimes I write about them, too.

    Next chapter of Hindsight...

    First, I'm sorry I haven't posted this earlier.

    Hindsight is not dead, I just don't have much energy to work on the story at the moment. Work is exhausting because we are still hugely understaffed, and I'm quite flattened when I come home. Creative juices are low.

    I do wonder

    Episode 22 of Season 7 will be called Once Upon a Zeppelin.

    This is the family crest of the von Zeppelins, the same family the airships are named after.
    Could the inventor/promoter/producer of Equestrian airships have been a donkey?

    Another Chapter Preview!

    Tiffin cocked her head with utmost innocence. “Not sure, but I think we’ve joined a gang. We even had an emblem.”

    Before speaking up, Brighteyes glanced to his wife and Peafowl, and instead of concern, he saw curiosity in their eyes. “A pretty pegasus guard smuggled us into Canterlot Castle, and long story short, the place is now full of pigeon poop.”

    As it has become tradition for the Weedverse...

    ...and because I finally finished the latest chapter that introduced the last character, here are roleplay classes for Hindsight.
    I'll still put the new character under a spoiler bar, just to be sure...


    Brighteyes would be some expert/aristocrat multiclass. Yes, purely NPC classes. A struggling lawful good.

    Tea Treat would be a wizard. Neutral good.

    Chapter Preview

    Taking a minute to process what he was seeing and what it could mean, Brighteyes blinked twice.

I just wondered... · 7:59pm Jan 3rd, 2015

I skimmed through my new Schmeil-Fitschen (a very accurate and recommandable German plant identification book) and came across the deadly nightshade, Atropa belladonna in Latin.
It is called like that because in ancient times, women gave a drop of belladonna juice into their eye to make the pupil widen, caused by the atropin in the juice. Today, solutions of atropin are used for eye examinations.

Would belladonna (Latin for 'beautiful woman') aka deadly nightshade be called bellaequa (Latin for 'beautiful mare') in Equestria?
