Moment of Inspiration! · 3:52am Jan 23rd, 2018
Okay you guys out there, LISTEN UP! While I suddenly got my "spark" back for who knows how long, I need an Inspiration on a new story I'm gonna do since I'm basically gonna be in bed for the next week... so, any ideas of an anime type theme or any other genre? Give me those idea's People!! I'm not getting any younger
How about something about evil within. I still can't believe no one has done one yet.
I've always been fond of the crossover genre. A Dark Souls crossover maybe?
Feel like doing something feelgood and slice-of-life-y? "Yotsuba to!" is really cute and popular. I bet it would mesh well with MLP.

All has potential, but here's some issues.
1: Wlam: I'm thinking over the lines like, my OC "Chrome Regios" (As her appearance at Turnabout Storm) as taking her life on interest in Alchemy and Magic instead of just a plain Pegasus. Is that good?
2: Silverblade5: I kinda played Dark Souls, but... Quit immediately since I'm annoyed on how easily I died, and worst, the darn thing resets it's level once I died... But, it's a great concept, although I don't know much depth in the game goes, heck, I still don't understand it... but, I'll ask my husband if he's up for it.
3: Skye787: The Evil Within seems a good game, though I haven't played it yet... I have to watch some play throughs to get the gist of the game before diving into the deep. If I like it, I'll consider it.
So guys... What's the final verdict? You three should vote to one, or let me decide which is good. You three are the only ones who replied and... frankly, I need more research before letting my husband take all the work.
(Which is by the way, is his name on my username as his OC (Raven Regios) While I'm (Chrome Regios) Were siblings in Ponyville so... yeah.
Anyway, you can vote. Either Skye's idea, or Silverblade's or wlam's. Cuz I don't want to take favorites, I want it to be fair and not looking like an bitch.

If you feel up for it, here are some resources that may be helpful when researching the lore. It's a really deep rabbit hole.

Alternatively, a The Ledgend of Spyro crossover would also be nice. Haven't seen a good one in a while.

It doesn't really have anything to do with the comic I mentioned, but if that's the story you want to tell, go right ahead.
That said, phrasings like "my OC" never leave me with the best of feelings. It's generally a bad idea to create a character in a vacuum and then write a story around them. A character should, if possible, be written to fit what the story needs them to be, otherwise you tend to get a story with only a second-rate plot and many, many overly detailed and self-indulgent character moments that are really only interesting to the creator, but rarely to the reader.
That's just my own two cents on it, though.

If that's the case I vote for wlam's idea.

Hi, I'm Raven, though... I have no idea what I'm about to do... Some concepts are good for a new story to start up-and running. So, I'll take a look of Silverblade and Wlam's idea. Also The evil within (which I played recently) kinda creeps me out still, and has a good thought. I'll post the draft once I consult my wife about some things to make. Eitherway, thanks for the support guys.

So, settled on anything yet?

Actually, I think I'm going for the "Slice of Life" thing. I kinda looking towards the "My Shy Little Friend" thing, though I might create a new one altogether. what do you think?

I'm not familiar with "My Shy Little Friend ". Slice of Life sounds nice.

Have you read My Little Dashie? It's like that. only, this time, it's Fluttershy. Though I have to say, the sequel is... like a mesh
