    April, with many a day…

    So I just spent from the third through today (sort of, still have some driving to do) on holiday. Went to Dallas to see the Eclipse in totality, swung though Hot Springs for… well, the hot springs, and finally St Louis for a lovely riverboat dinner before bidding the Boyfriend farewell and starting the trip home.

    Well, I started it...

    All Good Things... has commenced. I may have a chapter of it up tonight.

    I really want to start closing out the unfinished stories, but sometimes you just can't get back into the flow for them. Sorceress and the Siren is one, Into the Wilds is another. Which is sad cause I love writing Azure.

    Homecoming, in retrospect.

    Homecoming as a series is a glorious mess. I’ve gone on short bits of fluff, created some … unique ships, twisted the fabric of canon EqG, and even touched on some dark topics.

    Don't you just hate it...

    When you can't find something when you need to?

    Case in point, I went looking for a comment where they alluded to It being like Frodo saving the Shire for everyone but himself and had to sail to another land to find solace.

    But I can't remember what fic or anything else.

    And it's frustrating to me.

    Meanwhile, in other news...

    For those wondering....

    I am working on Truth.

    “What are you doing here?” Sunset stammered as she gazed at her father. Emotions swirled inside of her, a maelstrom of feelings. Confusion, certainly. Some anger, long-simmered and cooled into bitterness. A bit of joy, but just a tiny bit.

    Mostly confusion though.

    Red rubbed the back of his neck. “It’s a long story,” he hedged.

Just had a thought. · 11:08pm Jan 14th, 2017

Did I ever mention an exact color for Sunshine's coat? I know I said it was a more bluish shade of Twilight's basic light purple, but have I ever stated a definitive color?

This is where I kind of have issues. I have a mild form of colorblindness, where I can't tell shades apart if they are really close. I know the colors of the Mane 6 because it's not hard to tell and Google is my friend.

I was thinking of aqua blue for her coat, but then again, lavender is more of a purple-blue.

Any help would be appreciated from those of you with healthy retinas. I can't finish this current chapter without this info.



And while we're at it, I just got done reworking my Patreon page. Check it out if you're bored.

I decided to go with cyan. If I need to be more specific, it's a darker shade than Rainbow's turquoise but not quite the shade of Rarity's mane.

Well cool. :raritystarry:

I'm interested in the specific shade and made this color chart. Which shade do you think comes closest to what you have in mind? Or perhaps some other shade? Colors are as labeled and the one marked "Twi Fan" is the shade sometimes used for ponified human twilight in fanart. :pinkiehappy:

Very interesting...I'd say the third from the right, not counting Rarity. Darker than Dash, Lighter than pony Twi. That bar looks the closest to my mind's eye.
