We writers do not speak. We do not hear. We have no songs. We have no pictures. We only have scripture. From words we bring images. From words we bring emotion. From words we bring life.

Chapter 98 Update! · 6:01pm Jul 14th, 2015

Now i know i said chapter 98 would be out today...

No, stop looking at me like that xD

In fact it is going to come out today, more specifically tonight. And not till late at night, im thinking likely around 9 or 10 (Possibly even a little after that depending)

I had a few things come up today that i have to take care of and i probably won't be home until way late. I'll be making the effort to post the chapter before bed though because i DO want to get it out. (Just have to transfer it and add formatting at home)

So you can expect it to be out, but don't expect it until late tonight, if anything else comes up in the meantime, i will let you know ^_^

For now, have a cute picture of filly Dashie nomming on a cloud:

Just didn't want people getting antsy when it suddenly started getting late with no teaser blog :rainbowlaugh:

3237580 Yeah. Probably smart.

I probably won't be able to read it today since it's too late at night. Oh well. :applejackunsure:

But I'm sure you worked hard on this and it will turn out great so that's fine with me.

yay filly dash

3237621 Who noticed the stallion in the reflection of Dashie's eyes? I think I see someone who looks like Thunderlane.

3237637

:rainbowhuh::rainbowderp:

I only noticed that once you pointed it out xD

i selected this pic for her facial expression, nothing else :derpytongue2:

3237642 Speculations on who it might be?

3237571
It might not be bad for you but I'm on the US eastern seaboard so it would be somewhere between 10 and midnight for me.

3237645

too hard to tell to be honest, it was even listed with the 'solo' tag on derpibooru (which means 1 character in the pic) because no one in the comments could figure out who it was.

3237661 Ooh. I mystery then! I like it xD.

3237637

Oh, I see it. But the eye color doesn't match Thunderlane's.

3237648 yeah I'm over in Prescott, Arizona.:rainbowwild:

Well this is exciting!

And I am just going to pretend its Soarin, since no one can figure it out may as well just go with head cannon.

3237732

when all else fails, DASHIE IS ALWAYS LOOKING AT SOARIN! :pinkiecrazy::rainbowlaugh:

3237734

Always.

I blame you for how hard I ship those two :rainbowlaugh:

3237741

Sometimes i wonder if i have indirectly influenced the amount of soarindash content both here and on derpibooru :pinkiecrazy: SoarinDash has more pics on derpibooru than any other ship, yes, even the lesbian mane six ships, considering this is the internet that's quite a feat.

Artwork content is usually inspired by content... and while it may be a stretch to believe some of it is my doing... it would be awesome if that was really why :pinkiesad2:

3237703

hey dude i think you may have blocked me by accident, i can't seem to send you PM's or even comment on your userpage :applejackunsure:

ARRRRGGGGG NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! I have to be asleep by 8:30!! (Stupid parents) WHY?!?!?!?:raritydespair:

Nimbus? :rainbowhuh: That's a name... But whose name is it?

Toss a pebble into a pond, Calm, and the ripples will effect and influence just about everything else in that pond. You might not be the sole pebble cast into that pond, but I'd like to think the quality of your work makes you a slightly bigger pebble than the rest.

Which is to say you're a very good writer, and I am sure a lot of people have enjoyed your works!

Who needs sleep anyway

dang the dawww factor has ben doubled. Dashie nomming on a cloud

3237878

You are most welcome :ajsmug:

I mean, I am a writer too, and I often wonder if my own stories (Not just the one I am posting here in the Wonderverse) effect other people, inspire them, make them think about things differently, make them want to put pen to paper and create worlds and wonders uniquely their own. Its one of the greatest accomplishments we can ever achieve, in my opinion, as a writer to inspire others!

And while I cannot say for my own works, I know that you have, at the very least, inspired and motivated me to start writing again! In a universe and setting I never thought I ever would.


And even beyond that, I see so many people enjoying your stories that it is awe inspiring, you have cast a stone into a pond and affected the lives of many a person, even if its bringing them a smile to their faces when the newest chapter has been posted, or making them sit on the edge of their seat as they watch the Wonderbolts and Renegades do battle as the steaks climb higher and higher with each passing paragraph. Even when they read Silver and Dash doing their private training and thinking back to memories of the people who chose to pass their knowledge onto them. Or even, and most obviously, watching Soarin and Dash's love grow and evolve during hardships and trials that would tear lesser hearts apart.

They live, they breath, and they inspire. So really, this was a long winded way of saying, even if you are not the main cause, you sure as hell are a big one in my mind for the increase in SoarinxDash pics :rainbowdetermined2:

3238114

Again, you're welcome xD

And dangit, Derpy is my favorite! Too darn cute that one. :derpytongue2:

Yay!!!!!!!! It'll be the last thing I read today!!!! What a nice bedtime story (chapter...whatever) for me!!!!

That's not a cloud, it's vanilla candy floss! :rainbowlaugh::pinkiehappy::derpytongue2::raritywink:

100th chapter around the corner as well! I have mentioned how I'm not altogether fussed on chapters being the best they can be, regardless of story, but I will respect your desire to make it something truly special for us when the time comes!
:yay::eeyup::rainbowdetermined2::scootangel::pinkiesmile::raritystarry::twilightsmile::ajsmug:

3237732 It is spelled 'canon' just saying so :twilightsheepish:

3238557

Thanks. Darn my spelling sometimes xD

3238584 There is another one here actually:

They live, they breath, and they inspire. So really, this was a long winded way of saying, even if you are not the main cause, you sure as hell are a big one in my mind for the increase in SoarinxDash pics :rainbowdetermined2:

'breathe' :twistnerd:

You are welcome though. :rainbowwild:

3238595

Would you be surprised if I told you that 90% of my editing is me going through going "That doesn't look right...."

3238606 Perhaps so. :derpyderp1: But there's still more to come:

the Wonderbolts and Renegades do battle as the steaks climb higher and higher with each passing paragraph.

'stakes' :twilightoops:

There are places you've put 'effect' rather than 'affect' too. :derpyderp2:

As far as your talk of inspiration and stuff goes now, none of that is for me. I'm just far too analytically minded to have much imagination, heck I have it hard enough to understand why things are meant to be funny to others and I sit there thinking "what is happening here?" :twilightblush:

3238630

The written arts aren't for everyone. I can take things really literal too, since I am actually autistic! Which is the reason I mix words up a lot. I have an entire encyclopedia knocking around inside my head, plus a thesaurus, but I spell things phonetically, so if a word sounds the same, but isn't the right one, it might still come out because it sounds correct at the moment.

You've already seen the result, since I didn't go back and make sure I used the right words in that wall of text :derpytongue2:

3238646 Or I would if I thought to check back to see if you'd corrected yourself. If you aren't bothering to it's no issue, I just didn't feel I could leave it be.

Bruh, you are amazing! :pinkiehappy:

I just turned 13 yesterday, so, yeah, if you do post it tonight, or tomorrow, I won't care, it's on my birthday week! I read last week's chapter and I nearly woke up my sister 'cause I spazzed out so badly. :rainbowlaugh: You come up with the best things, dude - there's a reason why I love you so much. :heart: :twilightsmile: :derpytongue2: :pinkiehappy:

This just made my whole day. How? Some reasons logical, others completely random. I'm looking forward to it, Calm, I really am. :pinkiehappy: :rainbowkiss: :raritywink: :heart: :heart: :heart:

3237648 I made a slight calculation error. Im only 2 hours after the time in Wisconsin. Oh and Yeah I do know what state he lives in. So I'll get it at like 8ish.

Quick question, you live in the U.S.A right? Eastern seaboard?

3238662

I understand! I do it myself sometimes, go back and correct people. Thanks for doing it, though! Most people would find it annoying, I find it a learning experience :scootangel:

Only 47 min and 42 seconds until chap 98!!! For me.

the moment i saw the first line, my face was like:fluttercry:, but then I was like:yay:

3238783 I know that too well, part of the reason I try to leave things as they are more often than not as I worry too much that I might put somebody out and I'm left with shame in the aftermath. Then I'll either amend the situation or feel it's just easier to run. :pinkiesad2:

3238673

Happy Birthday! :eeyup:

And awww, thanks! I'm glad you're having such a great time with the story! :twilightsmile:
