Original Story: To Catch A Falling Star

By Emma Lee Downs (LyraAlluse)

Once long ago on the world Tamerine there lived a young girl. The girl dreamed of going on grand adventures to find a star to hold in the palm of her hand. She would often speak of this to the other children of her village but they would only laugh at her words.

Hello, everyone! The world of FIM fanfiction can be a convoluted, insular, sprawling mess. With so many sub-fandoms and variations, it can be daunting for new fans to get up to date, and even older fans might have trouble keeping up with everything.

In this blog series, I provide a quick overview of different Alternate Universes. Whether you're a new user looking for the basics or an old hand looking for information, hopefully these concise overviews will help you out.

Hello and greetings to anyone and everyone who may see this. I'm making rounds and adding this place to them as well!

Equestrian City Episode 2 and 3 are up and ready for consumption! Head over to the main page and see how it reads to you!

Don't forget we also have a comic thats updated on a fairly decent basis!

Hey all, just a quick note that episode 4 is up for consumption. Let me stress that feedback is welcome, but it's also frustrating to have someone downvote you for no real reason. I'd love to hone my work but I can't do it in the dark ;)

New Story Description!

We wanted to help describe the story in a way that seemed more accessable to the audience, so after some testing we modified it to this:

I've decided to get into the mood of Halloween by writing a darkfic. For some reason, the idea for this story has been rolling around in my head for a long time, and I finally gave in and wrote it. It's a basic premise. What Cheerilee's Garden took place in the Lunaverse? It's a very strange variation of the story. Very different. The fact it takes place in the Lunaverse is actually super important and changes many things about the story. Interesting changes I hope. This Cheerilee isn't a

chapter 1: the bunny and the fox

So, recently I've been redoing some of my old maps for "The Song of the Spheres," and between them and my worldbuilding notes I've run into a bit of a problem: a lot of them don't make sense.

- Big honkin' gaps in borders with traditional enemies? I'm sure nothing bad ever happened with that!
- My poor, smooth, Euro-centric brain decided to go with semi-feudalism for Homestria's history instead of what it should be (psuedo-Confucism with "Harmony" instead of "The Mandate of Heaven").

Fun Fact: I turned off “Show Mature” in my settings and looked at my to-read shelf. I lost five pages.

Another fun fact, I’m on my seventeenth page! Whee! Progress!

Now before I get into the heart of this episode proper, I want to address something. This particular installment encountered rather short first chapters/prologues, and both have quite a few chapters that follow.

Ok, I figure it’s time for an update to my OC’s universe, mostly bat pony history and one new menu item. Y’all can blame I thought I was Toast and especially Harmony Split for this. A few bits and pieces are borrowed directly from them, but most is inspired by it with a sprinkling of things from other stories and my own ideas in there.

As far as fanfic goes, I'm currently actively working on three stories. Two of them are new ones I mentioned when I ended my hiatus - Rariquest and Her Chosen Princess of the Sun. As an aside, I've found Cozy Glow's character to be quite close to the character I was going for with Sunset Shimmer in Her Chosen Princess of the Sun, though the role they fill is very different so I still want to get around to writing that eventually. The bigger issue is the Season 9 Premiere addressed the same

My first sequel has finally begun!

First order of buisness, despite my caterwauling about 'Yes, definitely 3k for each chapter' I did indeed miss that target. It was foolish of me to give an explicit number when narrative creativity may infringe upon that, so yes, my bad. Secondly, Trellia raised a valid point while editing. What in the heck is a 'Bicce' ?

I'm inundated with ideas right now, sequels, prequels and all kinds of possibilities. I have the Science fic I'm still solidly working on (though march has crept up on me), and I've unfortunately finished this fic (Nature of Love) two days too late for the competition. It stings a little, even with no cash prize I'd still liked to have ranked somewhere. Life has admittedly been a bit hectic lately, but it's no excuse.

It's been a good month for Twilight Sparkle, Diamond Dog, Genius, and all around target of my muse. Or at least half of it. With a brand new chapter in Three Steps Back, we delve into her home life and past somewhat. Elements of the differences are mostly apparent, though some are ambiguous, with a few even tied to as-of-yet-unwritten fics.

Still not sure how I feel about Thanksgiving. On the one hand, we've got a nightmare for anyone working retail (my heart goes out to you, and just know I'm staying home tomorrow and friday so there's one less customer to worry about), and on the other hand, we've got an expectation to go back to family whose opinions are radically different from my own to celebrate a romanticized story of a pretty damn violent colonization. So, capitalism, racism... yeah, still deciding how I feel about the
