    Surprise!

    The newest chapter of Bluebird is online! Sorry for the long wait, but I hope this makes up for it. I'm trying to conclude the Mount Aris saga of the story nicely. I decided to draft out both parts of the story this time, meaning with this part done, the next part should be ready in weeks instead of months. (I oddly miss the COVID-19 pandemic, where spending time indoors meant I could finish a

    Happy Xmas to All!

    Hope everyone is doing well! I had great food, met both sides of my family, and got some nice gifts.

    Best of luck to all those submitting for Jinglemas. I would have submitted too, had I not dealt with the emotional toll of redundancy and starting a new job. Still I''ve seen some interesting entries so far (I hope there will be Young Six related entries in the next few days).

    I wrote a history book and people can buy it!

    That is correct. I've brought it up once or twice on this blog, partly to explain why writing chapters of Bluebird here has slowed.

I do a trend so you get to know me better. · 1:35pm Oct 18th, 2020

Stolen from Jack of a Few Trades.

1. What is your first name?
Tim

2. How old are you?
26

3. What country are you from?
UK

4. What do you look like?
If you met me ten years ago, chances are you'd say if there was a movie involving my life I would be played by Michael Cera. I've have less hair since then.

5. What do you wish you looked like?
Bit slimmer, more hair on my head.

6. How did you come across MLP:FIM?
Whilst I was at University back in 2012, although I didn't watch past the first two episodes because I didn't get why guys my age liked it so much. Promptly ignored it mostly until late-2018 when I decided to binge-watch a load of episodes.

7. What is your favourite ship?
SugarMac, Emberax, Gallstream, BloomTaps

8. What is your least favourite ship?
Sparity. Was fine when it was just kid Spike having a crush on adult Rarity, who was either oblivious or didn't see it as more than an innocent phase, but Dragon Dropped ultimately ruined it for me.

9. Have you told anyone outside the fandom that you like MLP?
I tell my friends in the furry fandom the honest truth: "I'm not a brony, I'm a furry who likes the show MLP."
They aren't bothered by it.

10. Were they a family member?
Nope

11. Favourite MLP episode?
Amending Fences

12. Who is your favourite superhero?
Not a huge superhero fan, but Spider-Man.

13. Favourite Anti-hero?
V from V for Vendetta

14. Favourite supervillain?
Lord Commander from Final Space

15. Favourite anti-villain?
Wasn't aware this was a thing until now, I'd say Bowser in the Super Mario RPG line of games.

16. What was the last book you read?
Grandville by Bryan Talbot. It's a steampunk crime thriller graphic novel about an alternate 19th century where Napoleon defeated the British, the French Empire ruled Britain for decades until it regained its independence (and the world is largely populated with anthropomorphic animals, with human beings being a lower-class minority). The main character is Detective Inspector LeBrock from Scotland Yard who investigates crimes that often involve politics, the upper class, and criminal gangs.

17. What is the last movie you watched?
Judy, the biopic on the later life of Judy Garland.

18. Favourite song at the moment?
'Sugar' by MYBADD and SAM GRAY. It's not my usual kind of music (I'm more of an electronic/house/hardstyle kind of guy), but it's been stuck in my head since watching the last season of Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts

19. What song do you always come back to?
"A Bad Dream" by Keane

20. What is your current job?
I'm a games programmer for a casino games development studio.

21. What job do you want in the future?
Games Programmer is already what I want to do, but I'd like to make a living making different kinds of video games.

22. Dream job?
See 21.

23. At this moment what is your greatest achievement?
November 2019, I fulfilled a childhood ambition of mine and released my own video game onto a Nintendo console, you can check out my game on the Nintendo Switch.

24. At this moment what is your greatest failure?
In my second year of University, got my dates wrong and missed one of my exams. Had to retake it under penalty (meaning the highest I could score was the lowest passing mark). Still worked hard enough on the rest of my degree to graduate with a first w/ honours though!

25. Do you have any pets?
None. Last pets we owned were two cats, one passed away and the other rehomed after my mother's allergies worsened.

26. What is your dream pet?
A fox.

27. Do you own any weapons?
No authentic ones, but I do own a LARP sword I carry when wearing my fursona.

28. Is there a gun you really want?
None, I prefer swords over guns. I'd love to own an authentic rapier one day.

29. What religion are you?
Agnostic. Used to be Christian, but largely lost interest in faith during my A-Level years. While I largely believe in science, I don't think it should matter whether you believe in a higher being or not.

30. If you could hang out with one person in history, who would it be?
Georges Méliès

31. If you could bring one person back from the dead, who would it be?
Richard Williams

32. Are you political?
I vote in every election and referendum I can, and I'm a progressive.

33. Are you married?
Nope.

34. Do you have a boyfriend/girlfriend?
Not at the moment.

35. Have a crush on anyone?
Not at the moment.

36. Care to explain?
There's a line in the film Social Network that I can't really shake off.

37. Do you consider yourself attractive?
Not really, some people say otherwise.

38. If you could spend a day with someone alive who would it be?
Daft Punk

39. Who is your favourite pony?
Ponies specifically: Maude Pie
Favourite Character in MLP? Thorax

40. Any embarrassing secrets you'd like to share?
Fanfics are my embarrassing secret.

42. Are you a virgin?
Yes.

43. What is the craziest thing you have done in your life?

44. Favourite TV show besides MLP?
Final Space

That's why I say I'm private.

47. What are some of your favourite MLP stories?

TSet Sail
Gallus doesn't want to go home for the summer. To get out of it, all he has to do is join the Hippogriff Navy. Simple enough, right?

48. Favourite quote?
"People don't change that much. Some are born wolves, some are sheep. You might be wearing sheep's clothing but your fangs are showing through."

49. Did you ever hurt someone's feelings just to hurt them?
No, I never want to hurt someone's feelings for the sake of it.

50. Did you answer all these questions honestly?
One of these answers is a lie. Have fun trying to find out which one.
