    Update Schedule

    Hello all!

    Just wanted to give you guys an update about the posting schedule for this fic. I just started my masters program today and I'm way too tired to post a chapter. In the next few weeks, I'll be figuring out which day works best for posting. As of right now I'll be updating the story on Thursdays, but I'll let you know if that changes.

    Sorry for the break in schedule!

    Featured?

    Holy shit!! Can someone please verify that I was featured today?? It's always been a goal of mine to be featured, but I don't want to say that I was if I wasn't. I know it's been like 2 hours since I posted that last chapter so it's unlikely that I'm still featured, but someone please let me know if I was! I saw it on my own laptop but my anxiety has me convinced it was just me.

    Next Chapter

    So this next chapter will be a little rough and will give us a brief glimpse at what Sunset has been through. Quite a few comments have guessed bits and pieces of what Sunset has gone through, but we won't learn exactly what happened to our favorite pony girl until around chapter 13. Just know that Sunset will be ok! She's safe at the moment and I won't let anything bad happen to her in this fic.

    Last Names

    Hey guys! So I had a comment asking about the last names of my version of the Human 6. In my fic, last names are decently important. I wanted to show that this world is a bit closer to our world than the series depicts. They're still very colorful but I chose to give them last names that tied them to both their Ponyverse counterparts and regions we know in our world.

    First Post

    Hello there!

    My name is Neba and I'm thinking about posting my first fanfic but I'm not sure if there would be any interest? I've got a couple thousand words written but I'm losing motivation. I originally wanted to have it all written before posting, but I think I'll post the first few chapters and then see if there's any interest.

Last Names · 4:18pm Jun 30th, 2020

Hey guys! So I had a comment asking about the last names of my version of the Human 6. In my fic, last names are decently important. I wanted to show that this world is a bit closer to our world than the series depicts. They're still very colorful but I chose to give them last names that tied them to both their Ponyverse counterparts and regions we know in our world.

Here's the list! (I included height as well to give you an idea of how they look at each other)

  • Fluttershy Forst - 5'5"
  • Pikamena Diane Pyman - 5'2"
  • Rarity Abila - 5'4"
  • Rainbow (Dash) Dashfields - 5'2"
  • Sunset Shimmer - 5'5"
  • Jacqueline (Applejack) Smith - 5'9"

Now, I didn't really want to mess with first names too much. That's why AJ is the only one to have a more "realistic" first name. With Pinkie and RD, I chose last names that correlated with what they're called in Equestria. With the other girls, I tried to tie them to my personal headcanons of where I think they would be from. So, Fluttershy is German, Rarity is Spanish/Mexican (still deciding this. Regardless, her last name won't change), and AJ is descended from the Pilgrims. RD and Pinkie are also of European descent. Sunset will be from a different non-European region, but I'm still debating where.

Hope this helps!

If you don't mind me asking, does that mean Principal Celestia and Vice-Principal Luna will have last names too?

Yes! I'll be posting updates with the names and maybe a short bio of different groups of characters as they appear in the story. The history of Luna and Celestia's last name is important to the story so I'll keep it under wraps for now :ajsmug:
