A sweet little milestone for me to hit! Thank you everyone who likes my work enough to warrant a follow.

Now onto another means of business: where is 'The Broken Bond'? If you're a fan and you've tried looking for it, you might have already noticed it's gone. Rest assured that it isn't.

I really should have written this sooner, but I didn't think any old readers would come back and notice. Sure enough they did, so I'm sorry for the scare everyone!

Guys... Can we like do a thing right now? Can we acknowledge the fact that Twilight Velvet was also Shining Armor’s mother and not just Twilight Sparkle’s? Like yeah, okay, Twilight is the heroine of the series, I get it. There are plenty of fanfics and fan art to prove that. Okay, understandable, nothing wrong about that. But she also raised Shining Armor. Like, we acknowledge Twilight Velvet as Twilight Sparkle’s mom, we acknowledge Shining Armor as Twi’s BBBFF, but do we acknowledge Velvet

Okay, so I didn’t actually finish writing chapter 3 of The Secret of the Crystal Ponies while I was gone, but I got a lot of it written, so yay! It’ll definitely go up before the end of August.

Starlight's old friend is getting along with all her new friends! But where exactly does that leave her?

Alternate Title: Identity — I’ll explain why later.

Oh, this chapter… Ch.7(Pride) had the most radically alternate version of all the chapters after Ch.4(Optimism), thanks predominantly to it suffering the most from the personality issue getting axed. I’m not entirely satisfied with what I ultimately settled on, but I still think it’s a good chapter.

Let’s get into it!

As of today, both Brotherly Bonding Time and The Rock Farmer's Daughters had their ratings changed to Teen (something that should have been done earlier--especially for RFD, given that it's older and finished).

Better safe than sorry.

And that’s that. That’s the end.

It’s been quite the ride, hasn’t it? Over a year spent writing The Bonds of Love, and over a year and a half spent discussing the actual writing process.

I think I’ve said everything I had to say or even could say about my story, but well? Come on, you all know me enough by now to know I just can’t shut up even when I should.

Sooo…?

To summarize my overall opinions on every major aspect of The Bonds of Love…?

Whelp, it's finally here! It has been over a year and a half in the making, but at long, long last... The Writing of The Bonds of Love is done!

Now as for when it’ll be released…?

Alright! Time for the second half of Serenity; let’s not waste any time and get right into it!

Continuing where we left off, we open on Gallus and Silverstream on their way to the restaurant, bouncing along in a bumpy but otherwise non-chaotic carriage ride, and—Wait, what do you mean that’s not how we start the chapter?

And here we are at last... The final third of the Epilogue's discussion, and thus, the final major installment of the Writing of The Bonds of Love.

No need to dawdle any further, I think. Let's get right into it!

Alternate title: Normalcy — Went with “Normality” since it sounded better at the time. I lean more toward Normalcy presently, but it doesn’t matter since they’re synonyms.

Ah, Ch.5(Normality), you will always stand out for being the only chapter to actually follow the original character-specific chapter plan.

Read More

Ahh, Ch.3(Expression). Or as I like to call it: The chapter where I finally figured out what the heck I was doing.

Look, I was writing a story about Gallus receiving therapy for his trauma, his friends’ reactions to learning about his breakdown, and the blossoming romance between him and Silverstream who was going through her own breakdown, all while trying to work themes of identity, personal growth, paranoia, self-worth, family, and the classic “Coming of age” trope into the narrative.

Fuck. This was EPIC. This is the only word to define what I felt about this fucking episode. IT WAS FULL OF PANDAS EVERYWHERE and references too. I was expecting a lot from it, but this... this was more than I ever expected! Who would say a donkey wedding would be so fucking awesome? Now go get more after the break...

Brotherhooves social.

Fillies and Gentlecolts, this had to be one of the most touching, thought-provoking, yet equally cringe-worthy episodes.

There were points that were flat out "D'aawwww" and others where you don't know how to feel.

Uncomfortable?

Yes

Questioning the content?

Definitely.

Gonna keep watching?

Naturally.

A great episode and one that certainly reminds us why Big Mac is awesome!

After a solid two month hiatus with not a word beyond the occasional “Thank you” to those who awarded T.B.O.L. a Favorite, I have at long last returned! And as the title doth imply, I’ve come bearing good tidings!

Ch.15(Family, Part Two) has finally, finally been fully discussed. Yeah, crazy how long it took me, right? And there are two reasons as to why:

Alternate titles: Fear, Part One, Life — Didn’t go with the first one because I was still in “Name the chapter after its central theme” mode, and Ch.8(Tension) isn’t exactly about “fear” so much as the lingering awkwardness or dare I say…? Tension between Smolder, Gallus, and Silverstream.

Time for some nostalgia critiques, where Starlight remembers it so we don’t have to.

WARNING: Contains Mild Spoilers to Crusaders of the Lost Mark

This blog post mainly is going to address Scootaloo's (Not so Cool) Cutie Mark. But it applies to Cutie Mark Crisis as well.

As you all know Scootaloo's (Not so Cool) Cutie Mark takes place in the same universe as Sisterly Bonds: The Rewrite and I would like to stress that what I say about not so cool cutie mark applies to that universe as well.

Maybe it's just me, but I can only write good smut when I'm pent up, but not too much or it just leads to non-functioning depression. I have two stories here that are unjustly starved for attention, so this month, I've decided to undertake a personally designed challenge called One-Fap October.
