Do you know what this is? This is the second part of an entirely unplanned chapter! I still pushed the story forward in this one, but we were supposed to be done with the Harmony Arc today! I even have half the next chapter done, I just need to sit down and finish it! This isn't the first time I've done this, and it certainly won't be the last, but to be honest here, I'm more surprised that I had that in me! When I first wrote Harmony Stories I: Unbreakable Diamond, I wasn't sure what I was going to do with Rarity. like, I didn't know how I was going to deal with her at all. Is she going to be strong, is she going to not, will she go full DIO and be OP|AF or will she be a one trick pony, I didn't have an answer. Then there was her family to think about, all I'd written at the time was that both her parents were working ponies and they were very well off because of it. Her father was tied to Argent for the sake of literally this and the next chapter, but that was all I had planned and built in.
The robber and the first time she used her powers and that little hint that she didn't care for her family all just kind of appeared as I was going. Fast forward to now, when I have the entire rest of the story and some of it's sequel all planned out, and I'm still writing something completely new while leaving hints of foreshadowing about this, that, and the next thing while moving time along and getting closer to the goal. Sometimes it take somebody telling you you've improved for you to see it, but with every thing I write I always feel like I'm just getting better at it. I cannot wait to do something new and see it come out better than the last thing I wrote every week. I get excited about this, and I really hope all of you who read do too.
Now that I've finished autofellating myself, let's get back to business and defeat the Huns. As everyone knows by now, the importer is broken and that makes me sad. I've been writing these things, then just using copy paste to put it in fim's editor, and I go through and add italics and bold on the rarity of using it (ba-dum-tsh). I hate it. It would be so nice if the script worked correctly everywhere, but sadly it does not, so expect these things later in the day instead of the usual noon-ish upload time to account for that.
Speaking of the sequel to Super, I drew a picture of our male protagonist for that story which can be found here. There will be two main protags to the next story, the other character will be featured in Super a few more times, and if you keep an eye out, you might just find hints on what the story will be about in the chapters to come. One thing's for sure though, Applejack will not be the protagonist.
Anyway, that's all for today. The song I linked is related to both the next chapter and the next story so take a listen, I happen to like it a lot.
TL;DR: I think I'm getting better at this, these are taking longer to edit, I draw and post things here, and there's a plan in place for the future of the series.
Until next time~
