Taking a break · 5:11pm Apr 5th, 2020
Ponies in Hogwarts is now officially finished. Having spent so much time on it, I really need a break. That doesn't mean we won't see further crossovers into Hogwarts. At the moment I've several ideas and projects I've been toying with. I even went so far as to start a few only to come to a screeching halt when they started to deviate in directions I didn't want, threatening either mediocrity or just downright horrible without intending it to be bad. Part of what makes "A World Without A Sunset" worth reading is because I'm intentionally raking the genre over the coals. I've found that there are a few more tropes I missed I could potentially add to that abomination. 
One idea I was playing with was a blatant self-insert. Other ideas include not so much as redeeming Sunset Shimmer but making her a more developed, more complex character. Lots of people seem to just want to typecast her as the penultimate irredeemable villain even when they redeem her. I can't stand two-dimensional characterizations like that which is why in my stories published to date I portray her as being fundamentally good but misguided. She made a lot of bad choices, we all do. Making bad choices doesn't make the individual fundamentally bad. It just means we've lots of room to grow once we realize where we went off track.
Another idea I had was to redeem Chrysalis. Just maybe not in a way anyone would expect. I was disappointed in what they did to her at the end of the series. Had she been left to her own devices I'm sure she would have eventually found her way back to the hive and at least excepted the new way. At the same time, I don't honestly see her personality changing, and can honestly see a 'reformed' Chrysalis constantly pranking Twilight and being the 'Devil's advocate' to make sure Twilight's new position never goes to her head.
i will be watching for this story line closely.
