    In the Interests of Closure

    ...I've published the long-standing "ghost notes" for FOE: New Pegas. Some last-minute clarifications and editing has been done as of today, but all of these entries are from the original project which I started a decade ago. They were the "working notes" segments which I would reference and update as necessary during the project, which has effectively ended at the closure of Arc One after

    The Trooper (The Battle for Big Rock City)

    Cherry remembers working a job as auxiliary sniper to the NCR Army, against the Herd, at Big Rock City. There was a unicorn he went drinking with a lot, in between cross-river skirmishes. Then the Herd surged through the City, and he never saw the unicorn again.

    Soarin the Headless Plasma Gunner

    Apologies aforehoof. This is the best version I could find online, and while it's not bad, it pales in quality and verve to the 1987 live cut I have on my personal playlist. It frankly comes across as too long and overwrought, but uploading my version anywhere without transforming it in any way would be illegal. If you want to cut to the chase, skip to 3:30 in the linked video, though as I say,

    Saddle-Town

    SADDLE-TOWN
    (a song of the First Generation)

    Well, we're living here in Saddle-Town
    Where they once burned all the factories down.

    Out in Ponyville it's raiding time,
    They're dealing in slaves,
    And blurring the line.

    Well our mothers fought the only world-war
    Fought the Zebras bunkered on our shores,

So. Marble/Mac is a thing, huh? · 2:39am Oct 30th, 2015

Well, given that I have continually borrowed from the show as New Pegas has (or, in the last year, mostly hasn't) progressed, I'm now faced with a bit of a conundrum.

Those who've followed FOE:NP should know that Cherry Pie is related to Pinkie Pie through her sister Marble. Even before Marble was named in-show, I had her picked out as Cherry's ancestor. Another thing readers will know, if they have read ANY of Project Horizons, is that I also borrowed major elements of Somber's work in order to use and expand upon his worldbuilding... up to around Chapter 50, that is, when I stopped following FOE:PH altogether. Up to Ch50, however, it's still canon to FOE:NP.

Making Big Mac Cherry's great-great-etc-grand-dad.

Meaning he's also related to Blackjack, on more or less the same order as Pinkie Pie and Applejack, cousins several times removed.

AUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGH

Well... Maybe it isn't so bad.

Then again, it looks like history repeating itself in a very odd way.

3506738 I'd like to say "exactly like that", but it's more like the Apple/Pie thing... without the smudge.

Iiinteresting~~ :3

3510794 Seeing Limestone's attitude in "Hearthbreakers" was a bit startling as well... considering that's how Cherry acts most of the time...
