Peach Spark's Song · 11:04pm Oct 5th, 2018
Hey folks! Here's a song parody I've been bopping around in my mind for quite a while.

Peach Spark's Song
(To "The Joker" by the Steve Miller Band)
Some call me Alexis de Ponyville
Some call me the Blogger of Mirth
Some people call me Peach Spark
'Cause I blog of the oddities of Earth
People joke about New Jersey
Say it's doin' me wrong, doin' me wrong
Well don't you worry humans, don't worry
'Cause your world is where I belong
'Cause I'm a writer
I'm an etcher
I'm a poet
And a truth-sketcher
Right here in the Motherland
I'm a pony
I'm a crony
I'm an inverse brony
I only want to understand
Ooh ooh, ooh ooh
You say, "You're the cutest creatures we ever did see
Really love your peaches
Wanna shake your tree
Lovey dovey, lovey dovey, lovey dovey all the time."
But I'm here to show you we're the fruit of your mind.
'Cause I'm a blogger
I'm an etcher
I'm a poet
And a truth-stretcher
Right here in the Motherland
I'm a pony
I'm a crony
I'm an inverse brony
I only want to understand
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
People keep jokin' about New Jersey
Say it's doin' me wrong
But don't you worry, don't worry, humans
'Cause I'm right here where I belong
We're the cutest species you ever did see
Really love our peaches
Wanna shake our tree...
"Lovey dovey, lovey dovey, lovey dovey all the time."
But in the end we're just the fruit of your mind.

It's strange to think that all the events of The Pony Who Lived Upstairs, except for the epilogue-like cascade of events at the end of the final chapter, would be over now if time had progressed as I wrote it. 2018 seemed so far away back in 2014!
I'm writing a new, even more out of date fanfic, by the way, about the 2005 Japanese animated film Arashi no Yoru ni (One Stormy Night). It's called "Beyond the Storm" and I've got the first two chapters up on fanfiction.net and An Archive of Our Own. (I'm Ringcaat on both sites as well.) The movie is fairly well beloved, if not terribly famous. It's set in an untamed land in which wolves prey on goats for their livelihood, but due to a flukish circumstance, one goat winds up befriending a wolf by accident. My story is a continuation of the movie, with elements thrown in from the 2012 3D kids' series based on the same series of source books. Both are viewable online. I'm not spending a huge amount of time on revisions, but the project does have a rather strong grip on me at present. Feel free to find, read and comment. :-)
Not familiar with the movie and subsequent fanfic you're talking about, but in any case, it's real nice to see an ode to the late, great Tom Petty framed from the POV of one of my favorite OCs.
Good to hear from you, pal.
Good to read more from Peaches. It would be nice to get little things like that from time to time.
