Meteorite Shower


Follow your dreams. Even if they turn out to be unreachable, they can still shape the person you want to become, and sometimes that's all they need to do.

    New chapter! This one's gotten that little bit more of a personal touch to it than the others, for reasons you'll see why. Also, Minuette! Minuette was fun to write.

    But uh, I'ma gonna shift tracks and get a little introspective for moment, if that's alright.

    Going Off The Rails On a Crazy Train

    Hello everyone! Happy 2024, and all that! Let's all do our best to make it through this one, eh?

    Anyway, apologies for the lack of an accompanying blog post for the last chapter, I just... really had nothing to say, so I didn't. In any case, I definitely do with this chapter.

    Meteorite's Origin Story

    Heya, back again with a new chapter! Hope y'all enjoy this one! Was pretty rough getting it to a point where I'm happy with it! No, I'm not suspiciously using a lot of exclamation marks to seem overly happy for no apparent reason stop asking about it!

    Secrets and (Pinkie) Pies

    Annnd Act 2 officially finished! Honestly, I'm so pleased I've made it this far. I've never thought I'd actually get around to putting these ideas down on paper (well, computer screen, I guess) so not only getting to this point, but looking further ahead and thinking to myself, 'yeah, I can totally get there in due time' is so invigorating.

    Butt Butterflies are Absurd

    Whoa whoa whoa.

    A new chapter? This soon?

    Crazy, I know. Truth be told, I've probably been thinking about and editing this chapter inside my head for the past few years.

I am an emotional being · 8:19am Oct 21st, 2019

Hi all. Finally got something to say. :twilightsheepish:

So as we all should be aware, the show aired its finale a little over a week ago. I... kinda broke down at the end, though I'm aware many people also have, so I'm not going to pretend I'm special and unique because I cried when a show about ponies stopped being made.

Still, it meant a lot to me. I hadn't really realised it before, but MLP was pretty much the only fandom I truly embraced. I mean, look at what I did; I created a self-insert OC and paired her up with my favourite character. If pre-MLP me had known about that, she would have repeatedly slapped some sense into me because you just don't do that.

I'll admit it, I've grown very fond of Meteorite as a character in some sort of... bizarre half-vain half-motherly admiration. What started out as an amusing meta writing exercise eight years ago has led me to being overtly obsessed with the love-stricken dumb little pegasus idiot today.

I can't pretend I'm writing Meteorite as some sort of interesting look into the ideology of character and author and the lines that blur between them. I'm writing Meteorite because I want to see her be happy, and that makes me happy in return. If past me has a problem with that, well too bad, she's just going to end up feeling the same way anyway.

Anyway. I'm saying this now, because the show coming to an end left an impact on me, one I found kinda hard to bounce back from. So, I figured the best way to sort myself out was to write an 'ending' to Meteorite. One I could be happy with. And having just done that, I think I'm starting to feel better about the whole thing.

So, if you yourself want to read it and don't mind me baring more of my soul, I've got it here on Google Drive. I thought about uploading it to here on FiMFiction, but I don't know if it's... appropriate? I dunno, I doubt the masses want to read about me singing the praises of my own self-insert. I'm not that delusional, yet. :twilightblush:

If you'd truly care about the 'masses', you'd never published a self-inser in the first place. 🙂 Anyway, I'm gonna go read it. I've come to be quite fond of Meteorite as well, believe it or any.

I mean, you've definitely got a point there. If it were solely Meteorite, I'd have no qualms about putting it up. It's mostly just the inclusion of 'Author me' aka Alexandra that puts me off, since she really wasn't meant to be 'canon' to begin with. But she kinda is now, so now I'm faced with being in this weird position of 'No, I don't want people reading about me, I want people reading about this other me instead!' :twilightblush:

So, I've just read it.
Let me say...
Daaaaaawwwww.
That may be silly and obsessed with your own creation, but it's utterly adorable. Well, I'm happy for Meteorite/You.
Self inserts can be pure cringe. Yours was pure cute. :raritywink:
