warning: this one's more of a bummer than the Aggretsuko video and delves into detailed talks of mental health trauma. Once again, though, it ends on a silver lining, and I wouldn't link this if it weren't useful.
Okay peeps and ponies... Here's my big confession...
I really don't like the CMC.
Why, you might ask? Especially given that I've devoted two chapters of Touch the Sky to their antics.
To repeat what I said to my friend MetalMax;
I’m pissed off right now. I’ve had to come into work after flaming 14 hour shift and I haven’t had breakfast yet. It’s meant to be my bloody day off today for fucks sake! I’ve been working nonstop since last Tuesday, all those posts I’ve put I’ve had to do at work or when I get home at 1 in the morning!
Just when I’ve been waiting for these three days off this happens. Fucking hell... Back in this shithole for 9th day in a row.
(I had to make an acronym for the title since it's so long)
It Isn't the Mane Thing About You
While not the most necessary of episodes (not to mention having a rather confusing time paradox), it was still pretty entertaining all the way through. I liked the message, the humor was good, Rarity's mane looks fricking awesome. Look at it!
Long after these episodes have aired, I’m finally ready to talk about them! I feel like instead of rushing to catch up by doing three episodes at a time, I’m just going to focus on one at a time. Maybe I’ll be done by the time the new season airs. I hope so.
This week’s episode is: It Isn't the Mane Thing About You
I decided that my story will get more public if it wasn't an adult book, so I copy and pasted it into another story, as it has no adult content as I am writing this. It will end abruptly, and the next part is adult and I won't be adding that to the SFW Edition, so it is going to be pretty short compared to my original story. Also, for anypony who reads this, I plan on making like 20 chapters. But that will be like in a year. I will see if this first chapter gets off the ground periodically
Wow, almost been on this site for one year!
That means it's my ponysona's, or whatever we call them, birthday soon!
So I've decided to upgrade my profile pic, commissioned something more personal. Do you have suggestions? Bring them up in the comment section on how you think DanishDash should look?
Potentially old news, but I haven't seen anyone else bring this up. You remember how Twilight went full Rapidash back in "Feeling Pinkie Keen"?
(And speaking of Season 1 Pinkie Pie episodes, I've written a story involving certain personalities you likely haven't seen since.)
Thanks to a piece I published last week called Your Faithful Disciple, I happened to be put in the feature box for the first time since joining the site, which happened at this point very close to a decade ago. In that time, I’ve put out only a handful of stories, many of which sit unfinished. But being featured inevitably attracts attention—attention for which I am grateful, and which has translated into the form of a bevy of new followers. To you, I say welcome.
*Sighs* January 16, 2006 (Which was also a Monday) This horrible ep aired, and really crushed a lot of us. Even the voice actors hated this ep, not just because of Terra breaking BB's heart, but because they really loved the series. Today, they, just like many of us, still long for a season six, and for these two to get back together like they should be.
PROOF:
I have uploaded a new audio reading onto my YouTube channel. It’s a reading of Keeping With Tradition by applejackofalltrades.
Here’s the YouTube link, you can check it out if you feel like it.
Mom took us out of the house so we’d get fresh air and be less like depressed edgy teens.
She let me choose where we are going.
We spent a good chunk of the road trip driving into dead ends.
I ate a lot and my stomach hurts.
But we had fun! I’m sad to admitted that it worked.
Sometimes I have a vague idea for an adventure story.
Starlight: "Hmmm... Maybe I could use my magic to mind control ponies... And make them happy!"
Starlight is swatted over the head with a newspaper.
Starlight: "OW! What the-Shepherd?!"
Shepherd: "First off: Mind control is a no-no. That doesn't make things better, and you should know better."
Starlight: "I... So, wait. Twilight Sparkle isn't just using magic to make ponies like her?"
Fizzle: *Peeks head into cave* Umm.. G-Garble
Garble: Yeah?
Fizzle: Timidly lowers ears, giving a sheepish smile I may sorta, kinda need your hel-
Garble: There’s a cockroach in your cave again, isn't there?
Fizzle: Hugs and gazes with big eyes P-Please go smash it?
Garble: Rolls eyes Uggh fine, but one of these days you gotta learn to man up and do it yourself. Walks out, inwardly mumbling You’re lucky your cute.
Sorry for disappearing. Ironically the thing I wanna talk about is the thing that keeps me from being here at FF or getting anything done.
It was nice to get a night in the feature bar with that story. I really liked writing it, so I'm glad you guys liked reading it.
Of course, while it may have been a treat, I did promise treats, plural, didn't I?
Buckle up, kiddos, a Ciderfest Storm is coming tonight!
I need rough drafts of my silly little changling ocs, becasue i need words on a paper to make a story in the first place.
[I have to many drafts!? Fri/15/Jan 9:18 PM]
