FO:ES The Last Song has a new Chapter today.

And a few new characters, including this lil' sweetie!

For those who want to find it but haven't yet, follow this not-so-white rabbit 🐰

Imagine you finish writing a particularly dark chapter of a story. You're proud of it and excited about where it is going, but you also feel concerned that the tale you're going to tell will only get darker with the current characters that you have. You feel a sinking sensation as you wonder whether you are piling too much bleakness into a tale that you want people to enjoy.

That's where I was at with the "Way In" chapter. Then I get a message from a friend of mine. We used to play as members of the altered-six, and I would be Bubble Berry. I was reminded of the fun I would have bringing him to life, and how he would make me feel better after a rough day.

I was excited, but I also realized I couldn't introduce Bubble Berry into this story, i had to build somepony new with enough of his idealistic nature to be a unique character.

Enter onto stage Doomande. Not only have they been helping with some awesome feedback and nitpicks for me to improve upon, but she notes that there is another 'Little Birds' song the I had not known about. I listen to it, and one line stands out to me;
"Find molasses candy"

Here is the full song.
I had found her. From there, the little brown munchkin stepped into the light with a squeaky giggle and an encouraging sense of endearment.

I also have to thank my friend Private Joke, who let me introduce her and a few of the other cast member to gauge her reaction. I wasn't disappointed.

Thank you and all good things,
