I have a job now! While this is good because a) money b) money, it had cut somewhat into my previously near-unlimited potential writing time (I say potential because my muse is not nearly efficient enough to actually use that time effectively). The mysterious contest fic didn't get done, but it's going to be done sometime soon as a fully-fledged story. Complete with at least one sequel.
To the surprise of all, the doors of the Badfic Slaughterhouse have opened once again. Five stories await judgment. Which ones are worth reading, and which ones will be thrown into a grinder for your twisted amusement? Click the button below to find out.
In this edition:
—Rarity subverts expectations by not subverting expectations.
—Twilight adopts Sweetie Belle.
—A pegasus bursts into flames.
—A rabbit just bursts.
—I make up a new question for Cards Against Humanity.
This story’s weird in that I don’t have a lot to talk about regarding it, but I will start at the beginning.
Calling Loving Submission a mistake may have been a tad bit premature on my part...
Since starting "Grief is the Price We Pay," I've successfully been able to post new chapters regularly on a Monday/Friday schedule, thanks to planning ahead and always having a notable buffer of six to ten completed chapters between the posted chapter and the chapter I would be presently writing. I've been able to maintain that schedule for far longer than I feared, to my great joy, and I was starting to think that
This video was my first attempt at creating a crossover video by combining some clips together. My biggest inspirations for the video in general were that I couldn't help but think to myself, "How would Moe Howard from the Three Stooges respond to Sprout's 'Danger, Danger' song? Even before it got started?" So, I created a video to illustrate the scenario.
Here's the video:
Sorry folks, no time to talk. I’ve got 50k words to read today and all my usual reading time has been stolen by work-related issues. I’m pretty much going to spend the rest of my day buried in horsewords.
But there is one little thing to bring up: Milestone! Say hello to Of Angels... in Chinese. This is awesome and all credit goes to hehelover for the translation.
Reviews!
Last week's travesty is adequately traversed. Next month will be the end of our retrospective on this story, unless something changes.
This is it! The kind of episode I have waited for! Finally, for the first time ever since "School Daze", we got a proper, 100% Student Six episode again! And it delivered in the best way possible!
Not only is it another Hearth's Warming Eve episode, something Season 7 did not offer to us, we also learn a lot about the lives of Sandbar, Gallus, Yona, Smolder, Ocellus and Silverstream and about the culture and traditions of their homelands!
Apparently “D&D got cancelled” is a codeword for “TD writes reviews”.
And experiences some strange feeling, deep down in his chest.
Is this that thing they call joy?

Not much in a mood to read. Seeing nice little things, but no forcing it.
It's like me eating too much sugary stuff today whilst writing in those motebooks, and thinking of stuff.
I couldn't eat as much real food as I desired cause I wasn't hungry enough. And ain't being any soon.
I won't even try. I may, but if I ain't. I ain't.
Also, those notebooks really are too small, and slightly too chocolate covered at points.
So yeah. This "describe yourself with three characters" thing. I finally came up with something, so to be lazy I'm just going to share the screen cap.
I made the fatal mistake this holiday season of overcommitting myself. I tried to get so many things done, I failed to get almost any of them done in time for my online friends.
But it is the holidays. And just as my mother orders things from Amazon and sometimes gets them on December 30th instead of the 24th, it is still part of the 12 days of Christmas, right?
That’s totally how it works, isn’t it?
13 more days until you can shoot a guy in red for breaking into your home...
This was another video that I couldn't resist making. I was inspired to create it based on wondering "What would Moe Howard do in response to Phyllis manipulating Sprout into taking charge of Maretime Bay? Especially considering everything that followed afterwards was her fault to begin with?". So, I did just that.
Here's the video
Sorry we're late, Ring was asleep and that left Crazy and SC276 to put tonight's doc together.
Last week was the start of a horrible, wonderful thing. You guys are so lucky to get to live this. There are a lot of moments in this fic that fall within the first couple chapters that I can't WAIT to inflict upon you.
Link to Part One. Once again, This review contains full spoilers of everything Attack on Titan, including and especially the ending of the manga.
In what might be the most hilariously on-brand move on my part, I am currently facing a lot of hardships because I was too stupid to be stupid. I was too good at studying, and now I'm in deep shit. Classic Aragón, let me tell you.
