Sombra The Highly Unmotivated Prequel Announcement · 11:21pm Jun 30th, 2015

For any that might be interested, I've just submitted the first part to a prequel story to Sombra the Highly Unmotivated. This isn't meant to step on the original's toes in anyway, more of stand as a collection of light-hearted shorts detailing the first seven months of Steve's and Sombra's odd relationship. (Okay, the term "light-hearted" is in the eye of the beholder.)

Their first night together, attempted murder plots, forced bubble baths, poker games, the discovery of bacon, escape attempts, and even a few parts from Sombra's viewpoint as he slowly becomes the lazy ass from the original. Since I might always think of new things for Steve and Sombra to bicker about, it'll most likely remain as Incomplete.

Here's the link for anyone interested, once it goes up: The Roommate From Tartarus.

P.S. I was originally going to call it Sombra the Highly Unmotivated: The First Seven Months, but bloody hell is that way too many words. :pinkiesick:

So lazy

“Put me down this instant! No one touches the King without permission!”

{Sigh}, NBR, you know what I have to do now right? Right?!? Might as well get it over with... (you made me do this!)
Sounds like some pony is "All shook up", so "Don't Be Cruel" Steve, 'cause he's probably going to be "Stuck on You". Still, if you "Don't" give up, you may be able to get him to "Surrender". Hopefully you are one of those people with "Suspicious Minds", because he may end up being the "Devil in Disguise"...
"Too Much"? Sorry, I just figured it was "Now or Never"... :coolphoto:

Okay, now that THAT is over with...
So good to see more of this story again. It's going to be interesting to see what you can fit into the prequel. And good to see that you still have the knack for writing an excellent Sombra. :pinkiehappy:

Hail to the King!

Hmm, highly tempting. A means in which to go back to the original purpose of the first story: a zany slice of life.

3196498 Basically. The same style as the first couple of chapters from the original, although with some minor character progression.

3195655 It's not as crazy as a full blown sequel, more like deleted scenes from the first, connected with a small story. The Sombra stories never end, do they?

3195534 I know... :fluttershbad:

3195478 Thank you!

3196907 And that is a good thing, as far as I'm concerned. :pinkiehappy: (Btw you hit the popluar list less than 5 minutes after you posted your first chapter. Gratz!)
As for the non-selfish part of me (tiny though it may be), I still say write what makes YOU happy. Be it Sombra or otherwise.
