With the last of the 3D content covered, we reach the second layer of my backlog, all the Tell Your Tale shorts and comics that have come out in the interim. Like the tortoise ahead of Achilles, some of what I’ll cover hasn’t even come out yet. Let’s start catching up.
Hey, so it's been a while since I posted something, but I've been so busy that I haven't even noticed when the time flew by like my cat at 4 AM. Nonetheless, I'd like to apologize for not finishing Flaming Tale by now. It's been so long that I'm not sure if I'm even gonna manage to write another chapter since I don't really remember what I initially strived for. All in all, to avoid making someone upset (at least not more than I probably did) the story went on hiatus, for now.
Unbeknownst to me, BronyWriter has long been a member of the Royal Guard. Yesterday, he jumped back in in a major way, and began reading stories left and right. I had to join in, as did a number of other folks, and between the lot of us we managed to process a whopping 15 stories in a single day, and put at least one decision (a consensus of at least two votes in the same direction are necessary to approve or disapprove of a story) on a bunch more.
Recently, TheJediMasterEd posted a blog about how the classic Mystery Science Theater 3000 "Names from Space Mutiny" running gag could be mined for awesome pony gangster names. I relayed a related tale of personal hilarity in comments, and have gotten multiple requests to
Zipp: "Okay, so here's how you practise using a tranquilliser. You find an easily-distracted target – I recommend diva sisters, though crafts-obsessed ditzy unicorns work equally well – make up some excuse for them to pose, and then, let them have it!
Kelly Sheriden is nothing if not a method actor. Bereft of a TV-Y rating, Starlight (least, in Season Five) would totally make a cutthroat gesture. And get applause for it.
Ha! Told you AJ would get worn down over the weekend and relent to giving me a ride.
This video that I'm showing here acts as a direct sequel to "Disney Villains Laugh at Pipp Petals". I wasn't originally going to create one, but after I made the previous video...I was wanting to make a video showcasing Disney villains laughing at the newly-found bald spot Phyllis got. It just seemed like something fun to create and hilarious to think about.
Here's the video:
First off, here's the holiday one. I hope it was a gross one for you.
Sunny Starscout: "Um, Izzy? Do you remember that little talk we had about reining in the glitter? I just got not conjuring the stuff when I alicorn it up under control…"
Izzy: "Now we've got another unicorn around, we can bounce off each other's sparkle in song! Join me, Misty: 'This is how a unicorn walks – walks!'"
Misty: "'This is how a unicorn… smiles?'"
Izzy: "That's not how the song goes…"
[Misty sweats nervously]
I'm gonna need a smaller lanyard…
This crossover video was another little something I was inspired to make recently.
I was just scrolling through Twitter until the new G5 album is coming up next month:

Sorry about the dearth of posts recently. I told myself that I’d get one of my stories done before I did some other pony stuff, and it turns out I’m really, really good at procrastinating.
On the upside, it did finally force me to actually get my story done! I’ve been sitting on it for far too long – in fact, I started on it before the Season 6 premier, and then managed to procrastinate on it for half a year.
But now it is done, and I am pretty happy with the result.
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!
Hitch: "You know, Sunny, I've been thinking. Frankly, it's just not fair."
Sunny: "What? That we have inexplicable magic beyond the other ponies in this town that manifests only when we're in major trouble? I would have gone with convenient myself…"
