Shipping... · 1:14am Jan 29th, 2015
Is this thing on?
Eh not like it matters; people don't read these things anyways.
So, I am thinking about introducing shipping into my story soon, courtesy of something that he will decide in Chapter...6? I think it's Chapter 6.
While that chapter is done, I am thinking that Chapter 7 might be a good place to try and start a ship.
That said, I have no clue who I want to ship Magic Barrier with; all I know is it won't be one of the mane 6.
Anybody got any ideas of who I could/should ship him with? If so, post'em, if not then meh.
He's like significantly older than Twilight Sparkle right? That really reduces the number of options, also depends on where he will be staying. Really the only thing that comes to mind as being possible is Octavia, and that may be out of the running. Maybe go with an OC?
2755041 Yeah. I currently have him clocked at 28 [or 1028, if you count the banishment] So far [been browsing the wikia] seems like he'd be limited to say...Octavia, Cheerilee, Nurse Redheart/Tenderheart, and Ms. Harshwinny.
Lessee, Golden Harvest/Carrot Top, Aloe or Lotus, Junebug (less likely, she seemed relatively young), Photo Finish, Fleur dis Lee if your headcanon doesn't have her as Fancy Pants' wife... Twinkleshine is out, as is Lyra or Bon Bon, due to being approximately Twilight's age. Heck, find a blind bag list or a list of the non-show ponies from the brushables lines.
Or do what Hasbro does, find a word you like and add Dazzle to it.
As stated, I, too, feel as though Carrot Top or Octavia would be a good pair-up. They seem to be in the same general age area (not counting the 1000 years), and aren't often seen in a regular ship like this one. Normally Octy is shipped with Vinyl and Golden Harvest with Derpy, so I feel this would be an interesting "breaking of the mold".
2757041 Ultimately decided on Octavia, due to the direction the story has taken with currently unreleased chapters. :3 Thank you all for your input. :3

Glad we could help! I definitely wait to see how this goes!
2757601 Don't get your hopes to high; this will be my first-ever time writing romance. I expect it to fall flat. <3

Well don't get your hopes down. So far you've done very good; better than expected, in fact, so you never know.
