    Do you want a one-shot written by moi? READ THIS...

    I'm pretty bored right so I've come up with an idea. The next 10 people who already follow me can come up with an idea for a one-shot, and I'll choose the one which I think is the most interesting and write it. I won't tell the winner who it is... they'll only know when their story is published! :pinkiehappy:

    I’m curious…

    …What do you like most about writing?

    All you non-authors can just butt out; this question is just for the budding scribes out there to comment under.

    (nah, just kidding, you can hang around and read if you like, after all you’re so good at it :raritywink:

    I am SO glad this exists...

    As a environmental message, it's fair-to-middling at best.

    As a story which depicts how they might've handled Diamond Tiara AFTER her redemption, it's positively flawless.

Reviews Of Celestial Advice and All Bottled Up · 3:02am Apr 16th, 2017

What is there to say? A couple of great episodes. It was nice to see such a low-key two parter, with both segments providing great character development for Trixie and Starlight, plus we see a welcome side of Celestia we haven't bore witness to for a while. Apparently, she's getting her own episode soon. Hmm... should be interesting. :twistnerd:

Another thing I loved about the these two episodes is their constant continuity references, the morals about home being where the heart is and honesty with your friends being a good thing and the dialogue, which seems to have come on leaps and bounds of late. Plus, how can we forget Discord. What a lil s**t, amIright? :scootangel:Anyway, ratings...

Celestial Advice: 4/5
All Bottled Up 4/5

If you challenged me, I'd probably say I preferred 'All Bottled Up', but we're talking the finest of margins here. So, a great start... and now I can look forward to the rest of the season. :raritywink:

They were both fun, and it was really nice to see Celestia get some background/character development.

However, at least to me, they kind of felt...like filler. They didn't have that *grab* that a season opener has in the past. Also that song felt phoned in, it was really lackluster compared to past songs, but perhaps it will grow on me.
