The Halloween, Trick or Treat blog post! · 10:18pm Oct 31st, 2020
Ah, it's that magical time of year. Jack o' lanterns are lit, candy is out on the stoop, and I'm curled up in a sweater and watching Halloween specials. But since I just wrapped up all the South Park specials I thought I'd take a small break before moving on to the MLP specials and give you guys some holiday cheer. So happy Halloween all my loyal readers! Now, on to some thing else. While it's not 100% done yet, I thought I'd give you guys a very special treat. That's right, it's time for a sneak peak! It's been long over do and I hope you'll enjoy it 
“So, Ah gotta ask,” Braeburn said as he and Applejack trailed after Autumn and Applebloom. “How did you meet Autumn? She don’t look like the kinda mare ya find in Ponyville.”
“Well, a while back Fluttershy and I were dealin’ wit’ a friendship problem at a place called the Peaks o’ Peril. Ah met Autumn there and she helped us out. After that we wrote a few letters and she asked if she could visit me in Ponyville.” Applejack smiled. “Funniest thing is, Autumn was only suppose’ te stay fer only a couple o’ days. Then a couple o’ days turned into a couple o’ weeks and, well here we are almost two months later.”
“She’s been wit’ ya fer that long? Dang, Ah’d ‘ave thought she’d skedaddle back home by now.” Braeburn then narrowed his eyes on his cousin. “She wasn’t… freeloadin’ was she?”
Applejack looked offended. “Course not! Ye really think Ah’d let somepony lollygag ‘round the farm fer over a month? She’s been working an’ helpin' out ever since she came te Ponyville. She’s some of the best help we’ve ever ‘ad.” A soft blush rose up from her cheeks as memories of farm life with Autumn played back in her head. “An’ besides, Ah like havin’ her ‘round. It’s real nice te have somepony te talk te on them long days in the field. Celestia knows Ah ain’t gettin’ a conversation outta Big Mac anytime soon.”
I know this isn't much of a sneak peak, but I didn't want to spoil too much. This is shaping up to be a really good chapter. Fun fact, my proof reader likes the Applejack x Autumn plot so much she asked if I could do a small spinoff showing Autumn's time in Ponyville leading up to this chapter. And I'd be lying if I said I wasn't thinking about doing something like that. See, I LOVE AppleBlaze, it's in my top 5 ships along with Sparity (duh), Fluttercord, Starxie and Celesbra (Celestia x Good King Sombra), but there's like, NO big following, which is a shame, because I thought Applejack and Autumn have REALLY good chemistry, certainly better than AppleDash. No offense AppleDash shippers, but I don't see romantic feelings in hostile rivalry. How am I supposed to see love when two characters are butting their heads so hard and often it's amazing they haven't been admitted for concussions. But I digress. So I thought, "Hey, with a little planning and finesse I could write the AppleBlaze fic that could jumpstart that ship into popularity!" Hey, a guy can dream can't he? 
Well, I think that's everything, I should be getting back to my specials and Frankenstein meets The Wolfman will be on soon.
Have a Happy Halloween/Nightmare Night everyone! I'll see you in my next update.
Thank you all for reading
