Oh, and spoilers, for both the movie and the EU books.

So I haven't exactly put out much work over the last few months. I'm really sorry about that; between my laptop breaking all the time, the freelance work piling on, and general ennui and angst, I've been dragging my feet like a snail getting drunk on molasses. And not even good molasses, but the sludgy kind your grandma put away in the back of her cupboard fifty years ago and promptly forgot about. Now there's gunk everywhere and the slimy gurgling vermin are caught in a sucky deathtrap like
Old soldiers never die, they just feature in today's story.
This Isn't War
[Alternate Universe] [Slice of Life] • 1,548 words
Rainbow Dash was the Iron Wing. She was a war hero, the Slayer of Shadows, the Liberator of the Crystal Empire, the Wrath of Celestia. And depending on who you ask, she still is.
So overall thought it was a meh ep. MLP sometimes has this problem where the bulk of the episode is just going through the motions until the Main chracters of the ep figure out the right thing (this, the one where they fix up Twilight's castle, exc.)
That said, it can work sometimes like with the Saddle Row ep. Maybe it just comes down to timing and narrative flow.
Man... I dont know if its just me or what but it seems that traffic around her has slowed... alot. Its probably just me. But that isnt the only thing that is slow, chapter 6 is progressing at snail speed at the moment.
Sigh, and my star wars fic is also tied still via ratings 2-2 weird. What was also weird is that my non-brony friend is reading my fics... does this mean anything?
So this is a mixed bag in that I'm presenting different genres... but the songs each deal with that oft-writ about subject: love.
Something more energetic for the lover wronged-- if you want to do a story for something that involves someone getting over an ex, or maybe going to-toe-to-toe with someone they are having sexual tension with (think Batman v. Catwoman) then this will do a decent job to get you in the mood.
My Neighbor began as a simple story of a kind old man displaying common decency. He was a fully fleshed out character from the start, but at first I had no designs on writing multiple stories about him. After the warm reception My Neighbor and Mr. Arrow received, however, I scripted out several other short narratives to follow his interactions with the Apples and other EqG cast members.

Chapter 18 is done.
I just watched the Artemis Fowl trailer, excited that we'd finally see an adaptation of one of the best, most influential works of sci-fi literature, even knowing it'd probably be sub-par...
...I have never been so sickened and enraged by the idea of a movie in my entire life.
So!
There has been a lot of support for Fallen Knight, which is just awesome. And I have gotten into a big Star Wars mood, so right now there is a lot of writing going on. I'm happy to say the next chapter is well on it's way! I will be updating this blog showing the progress of the chapter, so if you wanna see how far it has come, feel free to check it out!

For those of you interested, I'm going to be streaming Apex Legends today, I'm trying to get into streaming now that I have the means to do so, so i hope you guys can join me and enjoy yourselves. https://www.twitch.tv/flongerdonger/
So as of today, I've finished The Prince by Niccolò Machiavelli, and The Dictator's Handbook: Why Good Behavior is Almost Always Good Politics. I've been taking careful notes of the three books I've read total (of which there is 61 pages and almost 20k words of), and of future events in War Against the Sun as well. Rest assured, it will come, but probably not as soon as you expect.
Howdy howdy.
I recently finished an entry to FoME's Imposing Sovereign's II contest. It was pretty fun to write, since I got to play with two characters I've never actually written before; Ember and Thorax, both of whom are adorable in my opinion, and very fascinating as both of them are monstrous rulers trying to play nice with the pastel ponies of Equestria, each in their own suitably awkward way.
This piece is going to aggravate a few people. I’ll state that up front because I know it’s going to aggravate them because I’ve already expressed this opinion elsewhere and had some people express very much that they disagreed with it.
We are in Streaming Wars since all of the major studios like Disney, Warner Bros, Paramount, Universal etc creates their own streaming services to complete against Netflix.
Anyway, here's how many streaming services do I have so far.
* Disney+
* Netflix
* Hulu
* HBO Max (Mom got it recently)
I used to have Paramount+ but Mom got rid of it since Paramount+ lacks in any new content and I glad she got HBO Max instead since I am more of Cartoon Network guy.
Thank you for patience; between EFNW ’21 and a day largely lost to air travel and time zones, I didn’t have the time to put together cards. Thankfully, it’s a fairly light week; we’re doing a roundup of the side shorts and suchlike of Friendship is Witchcraft.
Trying to spruce up the long description. The short description was a friggin' nightmare, but I'm rather set on it given its extreme limitations. The long description though, I got like three pages dedicated to different variations of it. Currently, it feels like I'm spoonfeeding the reader and I hate it. I tried switching to a letter like
