//------------------------------// // Departures // Story: Equestrian Fanfiction // by Lise //------------------------------// Girls, how are things? Sorry I couldn't write yesterday :( The event got me too overwhelmed and I had a slight episode. No worries, though. Everything is fine. The doctors are taking good care of me, plus Vertex is always by my side:) Oh stars how I missed you. You're further incentive for me to get better and go home. That and the commissions that I must finish O:) @MasterOfThisAstra: It was good seeing you. Thanks. PaintDrop @PaintDrop: Ha! I bet you just need that sweet changeling loving :P Get better, you idiot. Life is boring without you. Even annoying my mother isn't fun anymore. Well, there's also the angle that now that Max has married CRYSTAL NOBILITY her sister is suddenly all the more suitable :P (And I plan to take so much advantage of that :)) But really, get better. Once you're back on your hooves I have a ton of commissions waiting for you :) RRBB Thank you, LyraHands for a wonderful event! I fortunately, we have to return to Manehattan to deal with the new house and moving Candle’s belongings from her apartment. The reading and panels were spectacular and I don't see why we can't have CrystalCon become a Nightling tradition. To everyone whom I didn't get to meet: my apologies, there's always next time. To those that I did meet: you are magnificent and I can't wait till next time. LightSparkle, you are by far much more different than I expected in the best positive ways. I hope your studies let you come visit more often. Last, but far from least, a huge thank you to the organizers and the volunteer helpers that made the event possible. I truly appreciate everything you've done. The TechNightling Meanwhile the entire fandom is fuming with envy that candle got the stallion with the cute accent :P It’s been way wild! Far better than anything I've been to. I've never even considered what effect my silly stories might have. I got to spend time with crystal ponies, princesses, not to forget the coolest changeling that ever lived! (Sorry any other changelings on the site!) Many, you are the best! Please come hang out with us more! :) GriffinGirlfriend @GriffinGirlfriend: Pfft! Spending time with you brought me more calories than I've had in a week! I'll have to do crunches for days to get rid of the excess weight ;) As long as I'm not working just send me a message and I'll be there. ;) ManyFaces You know… I've been wondering. Are there any changeling stories? I like to think I've been reading a lot of stories, but I can't seem to think of any :( YouKnowWho Sword/Shield Lover SweetStuff @YouKnowWho: Sword/Shield Lover It's a strange fic by HoofTies (they have several interesting fics). Without spoiling it too much it's about a human teen who’s got into some trouble with the Felina corp, and ends up with a sword transported from somewhere to their vault. The sword turns out to be a male changeling who, in additional of being able to shapeshift into a human, spends most his time as a sword or shield. Sparta (the main character) ends up falling in love with him (I.e. she falls in love with her sword) while having to fight against the forces that be as well as corporate witches. I recommend reading it. @all: thanks for the great time! It was overwhelming to say the least. (@Simile: I'm still mad at you! I didn't think you'd actually dare! I wish I can erase that image from my mind!) Sadly, I'll have to be going soon. All that emotion during and after the reading got me thinking, so I decided I'll spend the rest of my holiday in Canterlot…with my mother. (Sorry if I'm not online for a bit) If anyone wants to say their final goodbyes, I'll be in the main hall for a bit longer, then am off to the train station. LightSparkle @LightSparkle: don't be silly! We’ll take you there on this little AIR CARRIAGE! :) Wait up, I'll be with you in a bit. (Someone prefers her beauty sleep :P) Simile …I don't think I've ever seen DarkSparkle so drunk before. Sheesh how time flies. Just yesterday she was obsessing about healthy diets and schoolwork, now… Anyway, thanks for the event. Was great. @Luna, congratulations on the engagement. (Surprising to say the least.) @MightyDragon, @CodeFilly: congrats on the wedding :) SaltyHuman @SaltyHuman: Dear, you had a bit too much as well, as I recall… ;) @all: please make sure that you don't forget any belongings in the palace. Also, please tidy up your rooms as much as possible before leaving your hotels. That aside, let me personally thank you for a splendid convention. You made the event fun, and wit the exception of a few very minor instances, everyone was well behaved (although next time, please don't tell my daughter you'll take her to an after dark disco party… :/) For anyone staying after the convention, please take the time to enjoy the capital :) InItForTheShipping I'll be leaving shortly as well along with the Wonderbolts. @DarkSparkle: are you alright? You disappeared somewhere last night and I was worried. @MasterOfThisAstra: it was nice seeing you again. You look well, and Flower was charming. I wish you the best, and send a line every now and then. :) Brush @Feather: Last time I'm doing a drinkoff with you! (Or at least I assume that's what was said.) I reckon I'll be carrying her to Ponyville. Take care, y’all. AwesomePony *yay*! I can't believe I slept till so late! Sorry, everypony! I'll be in the main hall in ten minutes! Any volunteers that want to help cleaning the place after the festivities are more than welcome. Also, I have some remaining convention art and fliers, so first come first serve! LyraHands Heh. Was cool. Could have been longer, though. Grumpy Aww, ponies leaving already :( I was hoping this would last forever. Isn't there some time spell we could use? And infinity loop or something? O:) I'm just joking. :) @CodeFilly: I wish! I literally want to some random cute stallion to walk up to me now and let me invite him on a date! (And yes, I'm so abusing my mod privileges :P) Joking aside, this was a fun party! @PPI, I can't wait to see how you'll top this! :D Travel safely, everypony! And don't forget to keep your participation badges! HopHop
