    Device Heretic

    At Everfree, helping SPark vend plushes. Come by and see, get a round pony blob, or a bat!

    Pony Feather has a booth here, and actually got ahold of device heretic to publish Eternal, which is my first great fic love on this site. I'm amazed. Gobsmacked.

    Shit Works, Yo

    I wasn't trying to crash-test the vaccine, but the dummy survived this time. Antigen test and PCR test (separate swabs, 3 days after exposure as recommended) both say no plague. What was the scratchy throat? Iunno. Not plague, apparently.

    A Hollow Place

    I was re-reading a fabulous story tonight-- Celestia Plays Dice with the Universe, by the inimitable and wonderful Cynewulf, who I have been privileged to call a friend.

    An Oregon Christmas Carol

    I'm dreaming of a wet Christmas
    Just likes the ones I've always known
    Where the pavement glistens
    And children listen
    To songs that promise Christmas snow

    I'm dreaming of a wet Christmas
    As all my days pass in a storm
    May your days be happy and charmed
    And may all your Christmases be warm

    Alicornization

    This one is JediMasterEd's fault.

    Psychic spies in chitin try to steal your mind's elation
    And little girls across the world dream of rainbow deflagrations
    And if you stand for all of these things it's Alicornization

    It's the crown of the world and all of equine civilization

Piano Drake · 5:29am Apr 9th, 2017

It's nine o'clock on a Satuday
The regular crowd tunes in
There's an old mare sitting next to me
Droning on about all of her kin.

She says, "Son, can ya play me a memory
I'm not really sure how it goes
But it's happy and sweet, and I knew it complete
When I had a less wrinkly nose."

Sing us a song, you're the piano drake
Sing us a song today
Well, we're all in the mood for a catchy tune
And you've got us feeling okay.

Now Pinks at the bar is a friend of mine
She gets me my treats for free
And she's quick with a joke or to blow colored smoke
And there's noplace that she'd rather be.
She says "Spike, I know this delights me,"
As the smile runs away with her face
"And I'm sure that I couldn't do any more
In any new possible place"

Now Mac is a polymath farmer
Who comes in each night with his wife
And he's talking with Rainbow, who's still doing 'Bolt shows
And probably will be for life.

And the Princess is practicing politics
As the townsponies toast to their own
Yes, they're sharing a drink they call friendship
And it's better than drinking alone.

It's a pretty good crowd for a Saturday
And the producer gives me a smile
Cause they know that it's me they've come in to see
To celebrate life for a while
And the piano, it sounds like a carnival
And the microphone smells like jade schmear
And they sit at the bar and put gems in my jar
And say, "Man, I'm sure glad you're here."


This is all Cynewulf's fault for inciting me on IRC.

I want to be able to add blogs to my favorites.

He should incite you more.

You were doing God's work, Cyne.

Delightful. Thank you for it.
