Episodes · 8:19pm Feb 23rd, 2015
Hello and welcome my faithful viewers. Today I just want to go over a few things. {I am working on the next chapter as well as some more info on Equine-morphs. Hopefully, I'll have something finished by the end of the week.} As of right now, I would like to put up a list of possible episodes in the Shimmerverse. Each of them are up for debate, as I might not get to it, feel like I can't tackle it, or seems superfluous to the narrative whole. However, I would also like to point out that these episodes are up for adoption if you think you can do it.
As well, if you have any episode ideas or thoughts, feel free to tell me. I'd be happy to include them.
Note: these episodes aren't listed in canonical order yet. I'll get that worked out soon enough.
1: Uptown Mare: Cousin Applejack is coming to visit. Can Fiddlesticks handle the city mare?
2: I Choose You!: All of Sunset's friends have pets, so she sets out to get one herself.
3: {Planned season 1 finale} Grand Galloping Chaos: The Grand Galloping Gala is one of Equestria's most prestigious events, but it looks like there's chaos brewing.
4: To Fear a Predator: Ponies are going missing and it seems like the newly arrived griffin is to blame. Is he really and will Inquisitor Trixie's meddling make things worse?
5: The Markless Wonder: Rumble has it hard being one of the few markless colts around. It doesn't help that Silver Spoon's cutienera is coming up. Can he gain a cutie mark in time?
6: Fanning Our Flames: Sunset's boastful nature causes some havoc when her old rival, Gingersnap, comes to town.
7: Coco Problemo: Coco's mother arrives and believes Ponyville too dangerous for her little girl. Can the timid mare prove that she's a brave pony?
8: Tickets to Madness: Sunset has an extra ticket to the Grand Galloping Gala, but who should she pick?
9: Sweet Lies: After burning a foreign delegate, Sunset is banned from the Gala. However, perhaps she can get in another way. Perhaps by seducing a rick young stallion.
10: All Lightning, No Thunder: Lightning has always pushed herself harder than most, but with the Best Young Fliers Competition coming up, will she go too far?
11: Everfree Unknown: Something resides in the Everfree Forest that the Ponyvillians fear more than anything. They know not to enter the deadly forest, but curiosity can get the better of the young.
12: Healing the Heart's Scars: Pizzelle's Ex-Husband comes to visit. Can Pizzelle put the past behind her?
13: Mine's Better: Diamond Tiara and Apple Bloom have always been the best of friends, but even friends can argue. When they fight over who has the better older sister/cousin, they decide to test it in the upcoming Sisterhooves Social.
14: The Quiet Symphony: There's a new pony in town and Fiddlesticks wants to be her friend. However, the new pony, Symphony, doesn't want any friends. Can Fiddlesticks turn the grump around or is this the one pony she can't befriend?
15: A Drug Called Love: The CMC decide to ship their teacher, but that plan quickly falls apart when the wrong pony drinks it.
16: Two is Company, Three is Torture: When one of Quickfix's experiments goes awry, she goes to wait it out in Sunset's home. Can Sunset survive the quirky mare, or will she die of frustration?
17: Hop to the Beat: There's a new party goer in town, JJ and everyone's taken with her, except Fiddlesticks. Will her jealousy get the better of her?
18: {planned season 2 opener} The Crystal Empire is back as well as some ancient dangers. Can our heroes survive the frozen North and all its perils?
{Some notes on these ideas.
The idea of having a fic about Symphony and Fiddlesticks has always been on the backburner for me. I mean, this has got to be one of my oldest ideas, dating back to when these two first came out in season 2 and the subsequent fanart. It's just I never went into it, since originally, I wasn't sure how to get the FIM characters down right. Now however, with Fiddlesticks a leading member of my AU, I think it would work well here.
JJ is the leading character of the animation, Die Young, a music video done by VivziePop. I discovered this a couple of days ago and I've watched it a dozen times over. I've never been a fan of Kesha's music, but gosh darn, this animation makes me love it. I love it so much that I had to write a fic about her.
Although it's said that the character is a werewolf of sorts, but given how she doesn't really look one to me, I've decided to make her a mixer. Meaning that her dad was a kangaroo and her mom a kitsune. As well, this gives her some illusionary magic, such as the colors and effects you saw in the video. Eh, headcannon really. She could possibly turn into a recurring character if done right. Possibly even being helpful to Hikaru. {Eh, I'll include her friend as a pygmy kitsune.}
Okay people, as you are aware, there will be six members of the CMC. I can't deny that, since I stated it in the crossover fic. I do know that I have more than spoiled a lot of things, some of which I really did want to be surprises, but I hope you'll still like those fics anyways. On the CMC note, while there are six, only three of them are 'active', meaning Rumble, Apple Bloom, and Diamond Tiara are the more go get 'em types like the canon CMC, while Dinky, Hikaru, and Button Mash are more of the reserves. Meaning, they'll be around for meetings and such and the really big adventures, but they'll have their own sort of cliques together.
Hopefully you'll enjoy these upcoming fics, and if you want to add some ideas or take a concept and make it your own, just let me know.
Isn't the Crystal Empire thing the season 3 opener? Also, aww,Symphony? I liked Octavia better... but oh well, alternate universes and all that. My headcanon is still and always will be that Octavia is Pinkie's sister. So this must be some other pony.
Sunset hitting on a pony for her own benefit? This gun be good!
Pizzelle's ex coming over? That could go SO many ways that I'm terrified already. Hopefully it'll be more of a comedy and less depressing.
Sounds like a lot of cool stuff to look forward to. Two comments: When snooty Applejack shows up, will she bring her equally snoot boyfriend? Because that would be hilarious. The other is, nowhere on the list is there anything about Luna, at least as far as I can tell. If you aren't interested in fixing her now and don't want to do a story on her progress, will we at least check in on her in the Canterlot Dungeons or wherever she is, and see how Celesta is trying to heal her? Either it will be really moving, or really funny, hopefully both!
2824857 I can switch it about I mean, the season opener of the Lunaverse was about Grogar coming back. Yes, I want to write an episode about Octavia, I just can't really think of one...Actually, I think I can, but it won't feature prominently. If you want to write an episode featuring her or suggest an idea, feel free to share….{Octavia isn’t Pinkie’s sister in this verse. Not related.}
Um…While I do go for comedy, well…it’s probably going to be one of my more serious ones.
2824918 Of course Blueblood is going to follow his charming lady friend. They are pretty much inseparable. I might bring the Oranges, if I can.
That would be a mistake on my part. I do have a story idea for Luna. I just forgot to add it. The reason was I was focusing more on season 1 episodes. The Luna one will be season 2, sometime after the Sunset/Shimmer crossover. However, I will cut to her occasionally in my fics.
Extra episodes:
1: In the Dark of the Night: Celestia sends Luna to Ponyville to learn friendship from the Elements. Can they teach her, or more importantly, do they want to?
2: The Song of My Ponies: A musical competition has come about, drawing in musicians from all over the country to compete. Fiddlesticks is going to have fierce competition, including three up and coming pony trio. Their melodies are to die for.
3: Permission to WAAAAGH!: During an inspection of Rarity’s Diamond Dog cave, Coco is captured by a rival Diamond Dog clan. Now the remaining Elements have to save her. How is Coco going to pull through this?
4: {Season 2-Season 3 finale-opener} The Return of Tambelon: the mighty castle of Grogar appears once more out of the Shadow Realm. Within the walls, their lives artifacts and knowledge more powerful and ancient than the world’s wildest dreams. It is up to Equestria, spear headed by the Elements of Harmony, to secure it and prevent it’s horrors from being unleashed. However, the Castle is connected to several other nations who want more than anything to hold it. It’s a free for all battle with the world on the line.
2825059 Sounds awesome. If you are planning to write about multiple differing tribes of Diamond Dogs, you may want to read the comics where Trixie is temporarily the captive/queen of a different tribe, they are very different than the ones in the show.
2825088 Read it and yes, there are different types, just like Orks.
2825059 episode suggestion
after constant failures to reform her sister( and nagging from High Inquisitor Fervent) Celestia must consider the option of putting her sister down(humanely]
P.S. make a good ending(Luna lives) and a sad ending(luna dies) to satisfy both parties
2824918 Speaking of Luna, I have a small portion of Alternate Realities planned with Luna. So hey, at least we do get a glimpse of her.
2825534 I honestly can't wait to see it.
Wait, he? So it isn't Gilda? I'm disappointed. I'll still read it, and I'll probably enjoy it, but I'm still disappointed.
