    Next Installation of Detective Twilight, Which Do You Like Best?

    So, if you haven't noticed, the tagged story is an adaptation of the first Detective Peach play in the new Mario game Princess Peach Showtime. It was a one-shot, but it is going to have sequels as more ideas come to me. Right now, here are three ideas I have for the first sequel. Let me know what you think, and if you have suggestions, I'd be happy to hear them.

    Spike's Decks

    So, in the last chapter of the tagged story, a comment made me think of making Spike have multiple decks. So, here are the structure decks I've chosen for him. And yes, I know these cards aren't real, but it's a fan fiction, it doesn't need to be exactly like the anime. You may want to pause every once in a while, in order to read the card text, unless you speak fluent Spanish, which I don't. If

    Life-Altering Decision, Keeping My Fans in the Loop

    So, this is a life-altering decision I'm about to make. And before anyone tries to say life is worth living, this isn't me saying I feel like killing myself, I've got you guys to get me through life, you're all great friends, and have always been reasonable. Second thing; don't go saying that this choice is illegal, I've done my research, it's not, even my brother knows it's legal, and

    What if Spike Loses His Hand a Second Time?

    First of all, I don't mean his good hand, he still has his normal hand, but his mechanical hand gets cut off. I was inspired by an episode of Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy where Grim chops off Hoss Delgado's cybernetic hand and says, "No more of your fancy toys, just you and your human hand." And Hoss responds by punching Grim's head off with his normal hand. Just to show you the scene, here

    Spike and Twilight's Relationship

    So, this just came to me. Spike's mother is Celestia, his aunt is Luna, and Blueblood is his cousin on his father's side of the family. But what about on his mother's side? Cadence is Celestia's adopted niece, meaning that she too is Spike's cousin. That would mean that Shining Armor is his cousin in-law. Shining Armor is Twilight's brother, making Twilight the sister in-law to Spike's cousin.

Legitimate Piracy, Spike's Kingdom · 5:00pm Jul 15th, 2019

So, there's some issues that me and my editor are having some problems seeing eye to eye with each other. If you've played Pirate101, which this story is a crossover with, you'd know that Avery dreams of turning Skull Island into a pirate republic. Now, my editor makes some good points one turning piracy into a legitimate business, as well as Skull Island becoming a republic. Piracy never was, and probably never will be a legitimate business, unless you count privateering, which is basically government sponsored piracy. I need ideas on how to turn piracy into a Mafia-like business, where everyone benefits from the illegal activities, and how to turn Skull Island into a realistic pirate republic, in a way pirates can actually stand authority. My editor makes a lot of points that are good ones. Another thing I need ideas for is how Spike returns to become King of Equestria. I originally was thinking that his time as a pirate would cloud his judgement, and he wouldn't be a very good king or he abdicates to Luna or Twilight. If you have any ideas on how to help, let me know

Well, for starters if Spike is gonna start a criminal empire, he’s gotta have an army. And since it’s piracy, that means a fleet of ships that fly under his own flag.

That's not what I meant by Spike's Kingdom, I meant when he has to take over Equestria, since he's the Prince of Equestria, one day he'll have to become King

There was also the buccaneers who ran the government of the Caribbean Islands. They were force into piracy when the Spanish government kill all the pigs on the island.

In Disney's Aladdin, Aladdin was force to steal to survive because he was an orphan and a "street rat." Because of this, Aladdin couldn't get a job and so he stole food, water, clothes, and have to sleep in abandoned house or in the open.

You could have the Equestria government become tyrannical after the Storm King's invasion. They could enact laws to keep Equestria ponies only and to ensure non-ponies don't become a threat to Equestria.

On his journey, Spike could come across both ponies and non-ponies that have become victimized by the Equestria government which encourage him to build a safe place for them and to returned to Equestria and become king.

You could have Spike ran across Prince Blueblood, Tempest Shadow, or some other Equestrians that could tell him about the underhanded tactics that the Equestrian government have done.

Only problem I see with that, Spike is not a pony, he's a dragon, but he's still the heir to the Royal Family of Equestria

In Deltora Quest, the demons cast a glamor spell on the castle so the royal family couldn't see that the outside world have became decrepit. So you could have ponies like Chancellor Neighsayer do questionable things to safeguard Equestrian while keeping the royal family in the dark.

In my MLP/ One Piece/Pirates of the Caribbean crossover idea, I have Discord be like Calypso, a fickle incarnation of the uncontrollable sea that was seal in stone by the Equestrian so they could rule all the trade routes of the ocean. After discoverying that the Pirate King was his father, Spike goes on a quest to free Discord and bring freedom to the ocean.

In the Pirates of Dark Waters, a group of pirates have to collect some gems to stop the tar-like dark water from covering everything. So you could have Spike and his crew recover the elements of harmony to stop Sombra's dark crystals from covering all of Equestria.

Decent ideas, only a few problems

Idea 1: It would be very hard to keep Celestia in the dark, since if there were really big problems caused by the Chancellor, she's hear about them through the voices of her citizens

Idea 2: Spike's dad is dead

Idea 3: Equestria doesn't play a big part in the story, Spike's in Skull Island, and he'll go to other nations of the Spiral, but eventually he will return to Equestria.
