Catching Up (kinda) · 7:49pm Feb 17th, 2019
I finally got around to watching the My Little Pony Movie. It only came out, what, a year and change ago?
I liked it. I thought it was fun, I liked the animation style and how fluid it was, I liked the songs, I thought it was clever to see the contrast between Twilight and Spike / Tempest and Grubber, and I kept catching little details in the background. I think it’s one of those movies you have to watch a couple times to catch all the references they threw in.
And now for my favorite part: I can read all the Tempest shipping stories on my RL list without being spoilered! Shipping!

This excitement got tempered when I learned this next season, season 9, is going to be the last season of Friendship is Magic. The disappointment got tempered when I realized I’m still not done with season 7, so I’ve still got plenty of pony to watch. But it’s so weird. This has been part of my life for so long. Knowing it’s going to end is giving me a brief taste of my own mortality.
But like mortality, this time is meant to be enjoyed.

This is awesome
MLP:FiM can't last forever, realistically. But I'm pretty sure FimFiction will for a very long time to come. And frankly, I prefer the amazing writes on this site slightly more than the actual series.
