Advent of the Dreamverse · 1:58pm Jan 9th, 2016
Ayo all, Inky Jay here. As I mentioned back in the Author’s Notes for chapter four of All In the Making, that story and First Seconds are both part of a growing project. And this is the promised blog post explaining myself.
I’m certain a fair few of you have at least heard mention or seen the art in passing of Lopoddity or kilala97. More specifically, their MLP next gen work. And that idea is always something that captivated me and somehow seemed to deftly avoid the cliche OC issue. Having wanted to attempt something similar for a good while now, here we are. With my good artist friend, Ambris, I will be fleshing out a fully realized MLP next gen to be known as the Dreamverse (after Dream Dash, the first next gen character to appear from First Seconds).
The currently established pairings and next gens follow in brief:
Fleetfoot x Big Macintosh, no kids
Rainbow Dash, single mother - only child, bat pony Dream Dash
Soarin’ x Spitfire - two sisters, pegasi Searin’ Wren and Lovejay
Twilight Sparkle x Sunset Shimmer - three adopted, two colts and one filly, crystal ponies Ruby’s Spark, Diamond Night, and Golden Weave
Sweetie Belle x Diamond Tiara - Sweetie’s daughter, unicorn Arcadia
Trixie Lulamoon, single mother - filly alicorn Resonance Lulamoon, colt unicorn Sunside Lulamoon
Now, yes, there are more pairs and more next gens I have. But for those I haven’t listed I don’t have any sort of story I’m ready to tell or outright lack names at the moment. Rest assured, more posts on the Dreamverse will come as those things become more solidified.
But for now, the roster. All In the Making finishes up in about three weeks (not accounting for fast approaching Navy transfer date at the end of January, which is pretty much guaranteed to cause delays on my side). Between its conclusion and the beginning of the next fic in the lineup, the idea will be for Ambris to have released two pieces of art involving Soarin’ and Spitfire’s two fillies. That art will head the next fic, which is about Searin’ Wren and Lovejay. From there… who knows. I’ll keep you all updated.
Cheers!
Inky
Looks like Trixie's been busy.

Figured someone would comment on that. Thank Celestia it wasn't the vitriolic response I was anticipating.
I love reading "next-gen" 'verses, but they can be notoriously tricky to navigate; as such, I have to ask: will you be creating a group to organize the stories as you write them?
