Micro Story VIII - The Rock · 1:18pm May 13th, 2018
It started with a slight clicking sound.
Like the fingernails tapping on a tabletop.
Click. Click. Click.
There it sat on her desk.
The rock.
Eyes fixated on the inanimate object, Twilight examined it with such rigour.
But it stood still.
Yet still was that sound.
Click. Click. Click.
Then a different sound.
Crack.
Like the world announced its significance with that one cue.
It wasn't a rock, she realised, there and then.
It was an egg.
"Cheap!" it said.
"I most certainly am not!" Twilight shot back with a scowl. "I'm $ 50.00!"
I honestly don't know what you're expecting from this.
PS: ex. Tax
I haven't been around lately. I've been adulting and such. I'll probably jump back in with Hell Yeah first. I want to finish other works, but I don't feel very engaged (maybe not feeling season 8?) anyway, see you around... maybe.
$700 well spent, I'd say!
And I know that feel of not feeling S8 - after ep3 and 4, I have completely lost any drive to keep watching the show :/
4859515 I'm totally with you, buddy. But more like I haven't even watched Season 8, period. I should probably do it for narrative purposes, but heck, it's getting a bit dry. All good, though, most shows peak at the fourth season (or before that). Writing always starts off fresh and then producers milk it to the ground.

This isn't really about milking it to the ground - some shows can go for a very long time and still thrive. The problem here is that the new writers often just disregard pretty much everything the characters have learned and revert to their season 1 or 2 behaviours... as if they never learned anything. Or they just conveniently forget some things which have been pretty much hammered into their skulls.
I still plan to watch the other episodes in time, just... I don't know when. Probably will round up a few people on Discord and do a social watch where all of us will start watching at the same time and keep each others entertained or something, heh
Hey, how are you doing? What's going on? Why is Just Roll With It cancelled? I didn't see anything in the blog posts... Is everything alright? Are you planning to come back to it?
4939133 It's because I want to concentrate on a couple fics without distractions. I'm not sure if I ever will go back to finishing the cancelled ones, only that it's highly probable that I won't be able to. I'm really sorry, but at this point in time fan fiction is more of a hobby I squeeze in and other things like paying off a mortgage and creating original fiction may take more of a helm. I didn't make a blog post because I'm not sure if anybody actually reads blog posts? I usually use this as a space to throw random ideas I have and have fun.

Ok, well, I hope that you manage to put your affairs in order, manage to take care of your duties in real life, and that somehow, someday, you can get back to writing more about Just Roll With It, because it's just too great a story to just let it collect metaphorical dust, so I wish you the Best Of Luck, and please let me and the other fans know if and when you plan to get back to it, or if you need our help.... Maybe, if possible, you'll let us know how your original fiction is coming along, too?
4939867 Thanks! I will definitely let you know if I plan to get back into it! Also, whenever I'm confident, I'll probably release details on the original fiction later. I appreciate your understanding and patience!
