There is fire.

Afternoon everyone

Ora! Ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ORA! In the event you missed it, there was a reference in this chapter, so here it is. I make a ton of references to Jojo in this story, but I didn't want to write a full line of the sound Ora. More specifically, this was a reference to ROADROLLER DA but I only had a cargo ship to throw, so that's what I used. As for the rest of the chapter, did it make you as nervous as it made me? Holy crap, I was feeling the scene as I was writing it. You people read this? It must hurt you emotionally about as much as it does me. A little thing about the next chapter, depending on length, the aftermath of this chapter may not be included, but referenced instead. I've decided that I might come back and make like a 'STCMS Gaiden' or something, where I do extra chapters that detail what happened during the times I didn't talk about, Applejack training with Celestia being one of them. That however, may just get a flash back in another chapter. There will probably be more if I try to stick to my schedule, so, yeah, that's how that is.
I'd like to stick to my schedule if I can, but as I've said before, I have no idea how many chapters this story is going to end up being on fim. My outline is set for 42, but I know some will be much longer than others and I'll just have to see what I can get accomplished. Chances are I won't make the end of May and my June deadline will likely be it. With that said, I will certainly be upping production once School ends, provided I have no internship or job immediately.

So uh... I did a thing in this chapter. I may have had Applejack beat the shit out of a character who we didn't think Applejack was gonna have an easy time with. But I have good reason for it, and that's because I couldn't think of how to make the battle compelling without unnecessarily drawing it out. It was slated to go the way it did, but said character was supposed to be much more of a match, or at least do some damage, but with the way her powers are, I couldn't really let Applejack get hit so... this is just how it ended up.

School is a thing that's moving onward and I fear my time to write will start to dwindle in the near future. My 3D modeling class looks like it's about to increase my workload and my web programming teacher sent out an assignment that I missed a deadline for already. Don't know how that's going to affect this just yet, but I'm hoping it doesn't hurt me too bad. anyways, that's all for today.
TL;DR: Jojo references, Don't know how long it's gonna take to write the story for sure, and... I beat up a character, but don't be made at me for it.
Until Next Time~
