Fallout & Friendship · 1:21am Aug 28th, 2016
I can't believe I didn't blog the idea. I can not comb through thousands of comments for proof nor do I know if the story still exists. (A lot of stories I waited for are gone. Major cliffhanger. Then again I'm not one to talk... but who cares?)
Season 6 Episode 17 "Dungeons & Discords"
This episode reminded me of Spring Break 2016 where my mom's side of the family went on a road trip to Arkansas. Word of advice: Get comfy on the Texarkana highway. I've been on it twice and (despite my second time being faster...) it still sucked!
Anyway, we went on a hike... but lost our car. We realized that it was on the other side of a canyon we walked around. Some Tarzan calls from both sides and walking to a bridge later... I became a drill sergeant and thought of a different kind of "DnD". It wasn't an original idea.
I had a Dungeons & Dragons instruction book as reading material.
While my step-dad and his son talked about a Star Wars or Star Trek (I don't remember) version of the game I was thinking of FallOut: Equestria. Think about it: Pony races, their ministries, their princess/lack of princess, and ghouls can be the enemies!
EDIT: I just realized that I predicted this episode!If you read my "Adventure Muffin" story one of the "V - arc" endings involved Spike being the DM for an unnamed but obviously based on the DnD game. I think Big Mac was there? No clue. I know Derpy, The Doctor, Bulk Biceps, Trixie, and Princess Luna with a slurpy was there. Luna was referenced in the episode.
EDIT X2: "Adventure Muffin" was inspired by that Spring Break. While "Fallout & Friendship" was an idea with ponies and DnD... it wasn't a valid prediction like in "Adventure Muffin". I mean, who thought Spike was going to be the DM? When it is usually brought up; Twilight Sparkle/Dusk Shine is the DM... or Twist. Never Spike.
