Of course there's a making of, there's always a making of. This is but a short one, as it belongs to a short story.

No new chapter today. Doing something a little different.

Alternate Title: Griffonstone — For obvious reasons. I didn’t go with it since I still preferred naming the chapters after their main themes.

Ch.10(Home) is weird for me because even though it’s one of the best chapters of the story, I feel far more passionate for the next chapter. Though I suppose that’s only natural when this is clearly a glorified Part One to Ch.11(Closure)’s Part Two. And yes, that does mean this was another chapter split incident, as are the next four chapters.

Alternate titles: Pessimism, Paranoia — Didn’t choose either, preferring to name it, not after Silver’s problem, but rather the solution to it.

Before I begin discussing this chapter properly, I just wanna say I feel so bad for Silverstream. I put her through so much crap in this story, it’s not even funny. But that begs the question why Silver’s story-line became what it is. To answer that we must first discuss what this chapter could have been.

We’re in the final stretch now, and there’s no better way to begin bringing this story to a close than the event we’ve been hyping up since the very beginning: Gallus and Silverstream’s 2^nd Date.

This has been a long time coming, and you better believe I relished every second I wrote this chapter, especially since I could finally write the lovebirds being actually happy!

It’s always funny looking at this chapter with that old “I won’t let these chapters exceed 20k words again” promise in mind.

While the first half of the Mount Aris arc was dedicated to Gallus-Stream finally having a break from all the plot-mandated drama so they could actually bask in their love and affection, this half returns us to the status quo to resolve the last of that drama.

And at long last, we’re here: The Gallus/Ocean Flow scene. And of course, it gets a whole chapter dedicated to it!

I feel it best to begin by reiterating how Ocean Flow’s beach-side tirade was the very first thing ever conceptualized regarding the Mount Aris arc, becoming fully realized thanks to Great White Prime’s suggestions.

Hello! It's been a while since I've done one of my large reviews of anything. The last time was my blog series on 'Bride of Discord' and pointing out and deconstructing fairy tale tropes and why the story was a kiddie guide to an abusive relationship.

I almost skipped this episode thinking it's that winter episode.
Why do cups have handles if the ponies hold them from the opposite side? And how can they hold it? And why are animators so lazy?
The snow is falling, but there's no snow on the ground or anywhere else.
Sunny puts pepper into the dough. Those are gonna be some spicy cookies...
Happy New Moon? So they celebrate every month instead of just once a year?

Hello, everypony! Bet y’all weren’t expecting to see this post suddenly come out of the blue. I’m currently doing a couple of rewrites for Part 1 of Redeemed in order to add scenes that make it more in line with the events of Purpose and I just finished writing this scene about 5 minutes ago. I figured it would be interesting to show off considering most of you were curious as to how the Alphabittle storyline of the former would tie into this story. Well, this is your answer.

Hey, everypony! So I have a couple quick updates to share involving the Misty Saga that you might want to stick around to read. So…I completely forgot to tell you guys this before as I was in the middle of transitioning the Official Generation Five Site to me and was too busy to make an update like this, but on Thursday, none other than Faolan Cortez himself commented on The Fall of Opaline!! Yes, the man, the myth, the legend himself commented on the story! Honestly, I can’t believe

Hello, everypony. So I just wanted to update you all on a couple of announcements in regards to the final entry into the G5 Universe after Redeemed. I bet some of you probably already forgot that the story was even coming out, but I’m just here to remind you all that it still exists. I’m currently making progress on finalizing the plot for Izzy Moonbow: Beyond The Multiverse of Randomness, and the first few chapters will be slated for a February 2024 release. It will act as a sort

Forgoing my usual habit of writing commentaries for my works, I talk instead in this audio commentary, rambling for an hour about how my ambitious plan for October rose and fell, the eight 1/2 tales I told, the people involved, and why I hate horror.
