"I've been thinking," Thorax said. "About everything we said back in Ponyville."
Ember was silent for a while, contorting her face in that cute way that she did when summoning up the courage to expose her emotions. "Me too," she finally said.
"I've been driven by hunger all my life," Thorax said. "Now that I don't need to eat emotions to survive, I don't know what to do any more." He gazed into her steely eyes. "Teach me how to take what I want," he whispered. "Please."
A flush purpled Ember's muzzle. "O-only if you do something for me in return!" she stammered as her composure returned. She stood up abruptly and stabbed a claw into the unyielding chitin of Thorax's chest. "The ponies are teaching me about friendship! Because they're the best at it, and that's why I'm listening!" Her voice became tentative again. "B-but I've, I've never ..."
Thorax rested a hoof-thing tentatively on her shoulder. She blushed and swatted it away.
"I've never learned anything about love!" she said, grabbing him with what Thorax suspected was a little more vehemence than she really intended. Her muzzle drifted to within inches of his, and there was something intoxicating in the brimstone of her breath.
"A-and ... who better to teach me," she murmured, "than someone who has spent his whole life learning its tastes ..."
Relevant to all your interests?
Yeah, I'm looking forward to this one.

Yes!
Dragon waifu and ugly pastels!

*changelings
So... wanna share the blackmail material you've got on the writing staff?
Wait, you like changelings and dragons?
4640813
Can't. The only way I could swing fanservice of this magnitude was by giving them back the negatives.
I don't even need to ask who'll be on top.

Also you need an #embrax tag for this blog entry.
There are probably others already out there...
4640780
You need to start a clop account.
... you already have haven't you.
4640780
You're not fooling me, not-a-changeling. I know what this really is: you, trying to distract us from the continued absence of Time Enough For Love from the site.
J'accuse!
4640780
More. Now. Please.
I knew it! Even though this episode wasn't good the ending sure created this Ship I could see a mile away!
This happens to also be relevant to MY interests.
Please give more, thanks you.
And here I was happy when they threw out what was quickly becoming a tired gag formula to make an interesting point about Spike's behavior, get some good inter-character writing in, and develop Thorax's character beyond "is a wuss."
But then you have to make it better.
Also, relevant to your interest.
...okay, but seriously, I was thinking of writing a shipfic of them before I saw this and I may yet do so even though I'm pretty sure yours would be amazing.

Addendum: there is now at least one other #embrax post on Fimfiction.

I am increasingly feeling like I should give in to my muse and make this a thing -- see if I can get an Embrax story out by the end of the weekend, instead of working on a Writeoff fic.
Straw poll:
Vote up on this comment for a Mature fic.
Vote down on this comment for a Teen-rated fic.
Reply to this comment if you'd rather shame me into TEFL editing or an (original fiction) Writeoff entry.
4641293
Whelp, I technically just voted twice...
4640780
... This is terrible. :o
More, plz. :3
4641293
TEFL
I know I'd be doing the same in your place, but what even needed to be edited?! The story was perfect at that length and with its pacing!
Anyway, I suspect ponies are attempting to match uphooves to downhooves in order to force you to write TWO Embrax fics.
I can't say I disagree with that motive.
I'll stand pat with my flashfic contribution for now, but maybe when I continue Veneer...
4641293
Before I read the comment, I had to wonder what you could have said that was so controversial! :O
Downvoted lol :V
4641293
And voting is currently ... 12 to 12.

Joke's on them, The rules say:
So I can write the whole thing as PWP and repost it clean as a "fade to black" version, if I want to have my cake and eat it too.
Having said that, joke's on me since I'm currently up at 6:30 am for a Search & Rescue callout, meaning I may not get any writing done this weekend at all. :(
4641652
Excuse me, I didn't say we wanted two versions of the same Embrax fic.
We want two different Embrax fics from you.
Get to work, bitch.

Ouch, sorry about the sudden emergency.
I'd love to see TEFL reach fruition, if only because I've got a bit of gift-fic in the queue behind it.
But, write your joy, of course.
4641293 4641604
A thousand times this. The thing that has baffled me for over a year now is how it could possibly take so long to post a story that is already done.
4645481 4641604
I disagree. The romance felt rushed; Star Swirl sets up the plot and then vanishes; the Pansy character arc is so subtle that most people don't even understand why he's crying at her funeral; the Discord bit is more like an outline than a scene; and the climax leans hard on a lot of offscreen development that's in the same room as canon but doesn't really connect with my reinterpretation. The original story slammed hard into the Writeoffs' 8000-word limit. Even in its torn-apart state it's up to 14k and it's got a minimum of a few thousand left to grow. Two chapters out of four are finished and those two are recognizably, undeniably better story.
(Compare and contrast. Hearth Swarming Eve: 8k Writeoff version, silver medal, great but skeletal; 15k published version, almost universal critical acclaim. And Not Pick One: 4.8k Writeoff version, bronze medal, mixed praise; published as Administrative Angel at 6.5k with a very-quick-for-me rewrite that nevertheless ironed out a lot of failures in the original. Iridescent Iron Rat grew to 9k while not adding anything major; same with Brewmare. I have a gift of writing really good first drafts, but they are not free of problems.)
I'm falling down on the job with this one, I'm not denying that, but it's just not true that the story couldn't improve.

I'd be doing the same thing in your case, I know. Don't rush it.
