    Adulting is hard.

    Buying a house is hard. Just saying that right now.

    So some minor improvements.

    We have a new person at work, and they appear to be getting used to the job quite quickly. My phone, meanwhile, has been fixed, and I have gone to great effort to thank my current phone provider for having so much better customer service than my previous provider.

    Househunting is still ongoing, but even that appears to be making some positive progress.

    I don't think it's getting better.

    So the good news is that we have a new supervisor at my job. The bad news is that one, the new supervisor is sick with something and her doctors are failing to help her get better, and two, the job is taking its sweet time hiring anyone new. This coupled with various unforeseen factors led to last week being a pain in the hindquarters at work. Plus, my househunting isn't going well, and my phone

    I think my job is trying to give me PTSD.

    I was awoken by a phone call this morning. Work asked me to come in, as things were crazy. I did so, was there from around 9:30 AM to 6PM. Worked without a lunch break, I might add.

    The Moral Event Horizon.

    Gonna discuss another trope today in relation to the Quiververse. In this case, it's the Moral Event Horizon. In simple terms, this is the point a character passes that forever marks them as EVIL and potentially irredeemable. TVTropes itself lists a few examples from FiM, and I won't repeat them here...though I will say that

Daring Do and the Quiververse · 3:25am Sep 8th, 2017

It's going up a little early, but the first couple chapters for "A Daring Day" are in the process of being submitted and should be available for viewing soon. Most of the rest of the story is done, and I should have the whole thing up before the end of this month.

Expect a later blog post about the story itself, but for now, here are a few tidbits for the fictional franchise within the Quiververse itself.

As of the events of "A Daring Day", eighteen books have been released in the series. This includes the sixteen seen in Twilight's possession in "Read It and Weep", as well as two that were published between then and the events of this story - "Daring Do and the Ring of Destiny" (published shortly after the main events of "Daring Don't") and "Daring Do and the Volcano of Destiny" (published at the start of "Rainbow Dash and the Daring Do Double Dare"). A further five books minimum are still to come, based on later episodes and real life releases.

As in canon, the books are written by Daring Do herself under the alias of A. K. Yearling, but within the Quiververse, they're edited by Twilight Velvet (mother of Princess Twilight Sparkle). A select few know the truth behind the name, among them Twilight Velvet, the Mane Six, and Equestria's ruling princesses. Also as in canon, most of Daring Do's adventures take her to remote corners of Equestria and the lands beyond, though the books do omit and exaggerate particular details in order to purposefully keep things vague. "A Daring Day" will elaborate further upon the details.
