What a long, strange journey it has been...

Yep, just as promised, here's a new holiday story on Xmas day for the third year running! This one isn't related to The Iron Horse, but I think y'all will still like it anyway. Enjoy!
I heard you on the wire back in '62...
Sorry for the wait, but it's here at last!
Chapter 59 - "Chase, Part 2"
"Look at you, Hacker... a pathetic creature of meat and bone..."
...And the final ending, Ending C, will be uploaded tomorrow, concluding the story. Thank you all for your support during the publication, and I hope you will enjoy the multiple endings. I've been loving your comments, and I'm eager to see how the completed story is received.
Spoilers for Marionettes! Don't read if you haven't read chapter 8 yet!
It's come to my attention the timeline of the infiltration of Moirai might be a little confusing given how CHAOTIC the situation is and no characters were PRESENT who'd seen ALL the events happening to EXPLAIN this in universe in an organic way, so here's me clearing up the situation:
The Defense Disabling Team (or DD Team) and the Rescue Teams entered at the EXACT SAME TIME.
Hey folks! Thought maybe you could all use some levity/weirdness amid all the tragic backstory stuff. Luckily, longtime reader and stream-follower Obsi (aka Shetland) wrote a strange little ship-fic between everyone's favorite robotic psychopath pony, Turing's elder sister Unit 002 and... a zombie?!
A mere week since last update?! What witchcraft is this?!
Nope, it's real, no witchcraft involved. And I've been waiting to drop this one for a long, long time...
Yar, me hearties! I know it be late fer a few of ye overseas, but I had t' get this in fer me favorite holiday. So, avast, ye swabs, fer me best mare Turing Test dressed up fer the occasion! May yer coffers be ever lined with booty, an' yer gears turn ever faithful, mateys.
Beep boop arrr. Shiver me servos.
After getting advice from Cadance, Rarity, and Twilight, Turing Test ventures out into Ponyville to see if she can find love, or at least start a romantic relationship. Will she find her special somepony? Can a robot truly love? Will the answer be less disappointing than that one movie that tried to answer that question?
Aliens. Really.
Anyway, new chapter's up!
Yeah, I hate to say it, folks, but the next Iron Horse chapter's gonna be delayed. There are a few reasons why:
Have you ever read a story that just hits all the right notes? Something sublime in its execution, an absolute joy from start to finish?
This isn't that. Today, let's examine
Not much to say here, really, other than to wish you all a very happy 2018. I've got some ideas I'm itching to put down... and you just might see a certain friendly robot in the near future. Happy New Year from me and Greenfinger, everyone!
So, it slipped my mind but yesterday I planned to share a bizarre little story by one of my readers, Obsi (aka Shetland, aka the German kid who haunts Greenfinger’s live streams 😁). This story is about Unit 002 from The Iron Horse and her defrosting relationship with a zombie pony named Hollow. It’s certainly weird, but I’ve read it and rather enjoyed it, and it could use some love, so check it out for some post-Halloween robot x zombie fun. 🎃
Okay, I had the entire rest of the final battle of Marionettes written and was working on the epilogue...
When my computer had to restart.
I saved, but due to a computer glitch, apparently my doc program didn't get the message and I lost the entire next chapter I had written.
Words cannot describe the rage I am feeling right now.
I was VERY happy with what I wrote, and now its gone and I'll have to rewrite it.
:(
Quick note here: "Passing Familiarity" will premier this afternoon. Just so you all know, it will be serialized, because I know many people get intimidated when they have a lot to read at once. But, as a compromise, I'll be putting chapter 1 out today and chapter 2 out tomorrow. More will follow next week. I know a few of you would rather read the whole shebang, but based on experience, I think this is the best way to go. I really hope you all will enjoy it.
