WRITER'S BLOCK~!!!!!
And not the usual kind, I KNOW what I want to write, just not how to write it. It's "anti-inspiration writer's block", I blame my recent lack of quality pony stories to read!
So, my awesome, quality-loving (is this questionable? I mean, you read MY work XD) readers, I beg of you; suggest awesome stories to me! The main page is haunted with repeat postings at the moment, and I've sampled all the highlights as of current.
Aside from this pathetic plea for aid in inspiration, I have little of worth mentioning...aside from; expect shenanigans soon ^.^
Tere's a story called Transformed. It involves a Decepticon named Ravage that is sent to Equestira to investigate magic using a pony mode disguise. Problem: His disguise is VERY attractive to the mares, so he has to ward them off before they discover his identidy. Doesn't help that the Mane 6 and Luna are after his ass. I hope this story helps you.
Anti inspiration block! No! That's the worst possible thing!

Stories, stories... depends on if you want a long read or a short one.
A Different Viewpoint of Equestria was good, so was My Secret Life as an Evil Insect Overlord and it's still ongoing sequel. Cooking Roach was fun. The Night Guard Night Mares was pretty good as well. Oh! Man Inside the Colt is a good Anthroquestria story....
Edit: The Three Sisters... quartet(?) is a marvellous comedy as well.
2757832 I shall look into it immediately! I am a big fan of crossovers, if Liberare wasn't enough evidence, and sadly there are very few quality Transformers crosses, not to mention the pitiful number of Beast Wars era fics in general.
Fans! Y U NO LEIK BEAST WARS~?!
2757850 I'm Scottish, I love long stories. Yes, I know, it's Russians who love long stories, but read up some Celtic or Norse mythology, it's very lengthy.
Silliness aside, I love long stories, generally ones with impressive character development, action, an ultimate goal, usually some romance, and at least some humor to break up the tension.
In other words; the kind of stuff I write XD
I have LOTS of all that in my stuff.
Otherwise, I'll be sampling those, thanks. I don't want to stall on Liberare, especially not NOW since it's in an arc I've been lusting after for some time now.
I'm planning on deepening this AU's world building, historical divergence, etc. Serious business. Very serious...probably why the inspiration block happened...hm...I do have "cannot finish projects-itis" along with plenty of other itises. I need some tosises.
2757872 Beast Wars is actually a pretty good era for a crossover. If only for the fact that they turn into animals over machines. You could probably make a decently epic crossover using the plot from Beast Wars set in the pre-equestria years, whether in the windigo times or the discordian era.
And now you've put the idea of magic being a volatile state of energon in my head... Unicorn maximal/predacon would be pretty limited since they wouldn't want to waste their energon... unless having pony forms lets them absorb 'magic'/energon(?) more effectively?
2757878 Long stories are glorious things. If only that you get to enjoy the world established more. Historical divergence and world building is always good, even if you can't show it all... Lord knows I've got a ton of AU worldbuilding notes for my stories kicking around in a couple places on my hard drive.
2757887 I don't waste hard drive space on my work.
I have a flash drive devoted entirely to them, and my image collection.
This way, if something happens to brick my computer, my work is all intact, and all I have to do is transfer to a new rig. Still a long process, but nowhere near as harrowing as doing a whole system transfer from one PC to another.
Speaking of which, my CyberPower has been getting noisy, I need to perform cleaning and lubrication. Also, my keyboard has been malfunctioning. Stupid expensive Steele Series Gaming Keyboard.
