Partners in "Humans Assemble" · 12:38am Oct 18th, 2012
Whoa! 48 chapters and one Side Story. Crap.... 207,124 words. Did I really write this? Man, I need to add a blog.
Well, always, thank you all for reading, commenting, liking, etc. But mostly for reading. Its good to know all this was not wasted. The way I see things, if even one person other than me liked this, then I've done my job.
Anyway, that's out of the way. Something to add, not sure if you want to read this or not. But in the story, I explained how the Elements of Harmony were paired with the Elements of Bromance.
I want to go on record- Yes, these guys are awesome and worthy of the title "Champion." But they were not chosen at random. Let me share one of my notes:

Granted, some of these are debatable, but they all posses these "ideals" and/or "emotions." Am I asking you to accept them? By all means no. Just wanted to give you all an understanding how they fit. Could I go into more detail? Of course! But not here. Send me a pm if you think a better ideal they represent or you want to know why I came to these conclusions.
The last part of the selection process? I actually write how characters will interact with each other. This is an example of how I toyed with the idea of Minsc and Iron Will:
Iron Will: If somepony tries to block, show them you rock!
Minsc: When the going gets tough, someone hold my rodent!
Iron Will: Treat me like a pushover, and you'll get the once over!
Minsc: Take heart fellow huge one, for you have curried the favor of Boo, The only miniature giant space hamster in the Realm.
Iron Will: Really? That little guy?
Minsc: What...yes but...but..alright. Boo tells me that I'm raving again. I did not notice a difference, but I shall heed his word, nonetheless.
Iron Will: Never apologize, when you can criticize!
Boo: Squeak
Minsc: Boo says that he was just doing his job.
Minsc: Look Boo! Its the lord of all rabbits, Killer Rabbit of Caerbannog!
Angel picks up his head.
Boo: Squeak
Minsc: No lord Boo! Such a battle will tear the fabric of Space time!
Boo and Angel walk and rub each other's noses.
Minsc: An alliance?!
Also, I've had to replay and view a lot of footage for these guys, trying to do my best to stay true to their characters, if only a little bit. I admit, I;m only doing an ok job instead of a great job. But I can only get better.
Still here?
Once more, thank you all for bearing with me. Hopefully, this will give you an insight on just how much I had to pour into this story.
Damn, forgot to add this:
Not sure if I will explain how the partners will be explained in the story. Only Discord and the Doctor have any sort of idea, and that's because his own champions were specifically called for Chaos. And The Doctor because he cheated and went to the future.
Maybe I a side story, but that's for another day to decide.

Seems really legit, how many times does he manipulate to law of time for his benefit (regardless how many benefited from this) As a ''Time Lord". So I have to say, well done my man, well done indeed
Ambiance and calmness.
MMMMM!
As for this story, I will wait for awesomeness.

Well, its surprisingly long I'll give you that. Now I'm off to convert it to MP3 now....
Pair up Iron Will with Teal'c from SG-1
You seem to be missing a pair that should be listed there sir....
Samurai Jack and spike?

Eenope, deliberate. I did mention it was only part of my notes. Can't exactly reveal all. Vash and Toph are also missing.
