    Stories resubmitted

    Hello,

    I hit the resubmit button on my old stories "Lick," "The Art of Falling," and "Sapphire" because someone asked me to. I don't remember exactly why I unsubmitted them or when. They should be visible on the site again.

    Enjoy the finale.

    Best,
    HBAO

    I finished Some Hugs Last Longer Than Others

    A long time ago, years ago actually, I said I'd finish my last fic. I did try a few times, a couple different finished versions have existed. But they were all terrible. Some Hugs was a problem story from the very beginning. The concept seemed like comedy gold. Pinkie Pie glues herself to Rainbow Dash. Hilarity ensues.

    How was the Friendship is Magic movie?

    So there was a Friendship is Magic movie released semi-recently? I haven't seen it, but I was looking around for fans of the show's reactions, and I can't seem to find much discussion anywhere. Did we all hate it, or what?

    Writing is Dumb - Part Two of the Story of the Story of Spring is Dumb

    Once upon a time, I started a full making-of-style commentary of the creation of Spring is Dumb. The first part describing the prewriting of the story looked like this. Now, about two

    I published a story!

    Your favorite fimfic author is taking his very first tippety toe baby step toe touch into the wild and wonderful world of original fiction publishing, and that first step is this thing, which you can find here. Might look very familiar if you participated in the Writeoff's

S5 - 22 What About Discord - Reactions · 10:08pm Nov 8th, 2015

- Opening
- You know, poke fun at Twilight all you want, but organizing is really relaxing and satisfying. It’s easy, straight forward, you get to personalize, you get to feel like you’re working even though you’re not actually accomplishing anything. Organizing is great.

This is a screen cap of books.

-Rainbow Dash and Discord
- This is weird.
- But I love giggly Rainbow Dash.

- Carousel Boutique
- I think Twilight’s VA misread that ‘We cleared some space for those old-fashioned books’ line. Pretty sure that should have been ‘old fashion books.’
- I don’t know why I care.
- Giggly Rarity, on the other hand, is weird and I don’t like it. Ladies don’t giggle. They titter. Everyone knows that.

- Sugarcube Corner
- Ew, I don’t like giggly Applejack either. Some ponies just don’t know how to giggle.
- I’ll give this episode credit for one thing, though. I have no idea where we’re going from here.

This is a screen cap of some stuff, I guess.

- ‘Time travel is not something to be messed with!’
- Ha

- Tablecloth
- So, uh, am I color blind, or did he just make that tablecloth orange instead of red?

- Recreating whatever blah blah
- This is really boring.

- ‘Trust me, they would laugh like that unless something magical was involved. It’s not that funny! I know funny.’
- This sounds like every snobby loser ever who doesn’t like that other people like something they don’t.

- ‘What kind of fertilizer have you had your nose in?’
- This is one of the best countryisms I’ve ever heard.

This is a screen cap of shipping.

- Discord
- I don’t get Discord’s role here. He’s doing a lot of weird sinister plotting. So, sometimes he just acts like a jerk for fun, I guess? And everyone’s okay with that?

- Conclusion
- This episode was okay. Twilight’s antics were mostly pretty fun, and the moral at the end was actually a really excellent one (feels wasted on this episode though). Discord was really weird though. All those hints at foul play, all those terribly clumsy and awkward scenes with him and the mane 6, but no pay off. And a lot of it was just sort of… bland and slow.

I didn't know you did reviews. This is pretty cool.

The episode was a 'teaching moment for no apparent reason' kind of thing. Discord made Twilight envious (not jealous) apparently because he's an annoying cockbag, and then tried to play it off as a teaching moment. :facehoof: :rainbowlaugh:

I thought this episode was overall lackluster. Pinkie was funny though. THe ending was a big let down. I mostly felt like it was flat and it was not worth the build up given it.
