If it's the last thing I do, I'm going to make the concept of Luna with an Abacus cool again.

Hi, guys! Requiem here! This seems kind of like it came out of nowhere, right? Or it might not. I don't know.

I felt like I needed some kind of magical horse-like persona while I'm on this site, even though my only contribution so far doesn't even actually have any magic horses in it... unless Sunset counts. Planning to change that with the next thing I do (which may or may not just happen before the next update on What Lies Within).

I've been mulling an idea for a while, and I wanted to know if it's been done before.

In S3e13 "Magical Mystery Cure", Twilight deifies into an alicorn after she finishes Starswirl's incomplete spell. What if instead of accepting the promotion, Twilight says she'll only become a god if all five of her friends become gods, too.

Yeah, I'm having one of those moments again. You know which ones. Those moment when you are thinking in more concepts and stories ideas rather than how to drive home your actually published work.

Does someone remember those lines? No? Okay, let me tell you what are those.

Those ar the very first lines I wrote around the idea of Actually, I'm Dead. It happened over a year ago, and nine days later, this happened:

That the phrase “happily ever after” is just a nicer way of saying “they grew old and died.”

My god, now I’m depressed. :(

School, mostly. Graduate school, to be exact. And due to my field being Journalism, my writing time is spent on a horrendous number of papers and projects.

Is it enjoyable? Oh yes.

Does it leave lots of time for pony pony pony? Not so much.

So.

It's been a while.

I've had a lot of things happen in my life of which I'd rather not share here, but suffice to say that they have been keeping me from the site and writing as a whole.

As such, there has been very little activity from me, in and out of Fimfiction.

I do have some news for all of you, however:

Okay, this is something I've been pondering for a while, and will require me to possibly ramble on a bit and rant some and I might ruffle some feathers along the way, so before I do that, have a cute pony pic to put you in a calming mood.

(I'd like to say I followed DraconicXeno's directions on how to insert this from Deviantart, but turns out, that way doesn't always... work.)

I'm sorry I haven't been on much the past week. I have family in town, and some personal stuff going on. Hopefully everything goes back to normal soon. I honestly can't mentally take much more.

Well, that was an eventful and stressful three months on the carrier. Quarantining. Sleepless nights spent carefully planning courses of action. Executing practice missions. Getting the strike group ready for deployment. Now I’m home for a couple of months before heading overseas for a year. Time to catch up on what’s been happening in the world. Let’s see what’s been going on....

More than usual, the internet is melting down right now over #2020 news, so let's talk about something different. Me!

A rumble of powerful thunder sounding like God aimed a perfectly-executed strike and I babbed my pants. Damn, that was loud! (The thunder, I mean, not my...nevermind )

i didn't even know you could fall out the window during the opening credits of the game. i wasn't even touching the keyboard or mouse lol

So, there has been a lot of fan speculation as to why Spitfire, Soarin, and Fleetfoot were able to join the Wonderbolts years before Rainbow Dash if, according to the flashback scene in Parental Glideance, they’re only a year apart in age. Well, here’s my headcanon:

A thestral, a siren, a zebra, a dragon, a changeling, a kirin, three unicorns, three pegasi, three earth ponies, and three alicorns all walk into a bar.

They then get kicked out because that's way too many characters with "primary/secondary protagonist" billing for one story.

But despite admitting she could stand to thin the numbers just a little, the author is also incredibly stubborn and sentimental and isn't inclined to let go of most of this cast.

This could be a problem.

Hey everyone!

Sorry for the long time between updates, but it has been a busy year for me, as I'm sure it has been for a lot of others as well.

I'm writing this so everybody knows that I am still working on Ponest Dungeon.

Arc 3 is bordering around 50k words at the moment, and still a ways to go. But it is still happening, so do not fret!

Thank you for your patience as I hammer this thing out.

Also... 100th blog... milestone?

One of the big factors in why my writing on more serious works has massively slowed down over these past several years is that I at some point just kinda... *inverted* my writing process, in a sense.

I used to write almost exclusively by the seat of my pants, giving little to no care about any sort of underlying plan or even consistency from one chapter to another.

Since I shared this will all my Brony friends.. and Brony acquaintances... and my friends who had been Bronies but fell off the wagon in season 3... and some non-Bronies as well... I figured I'd share it with all of you!

(Also, 2snacks says if they get enough Patreon support they'll finish it. plz consider.)

Thanks to the work of Flash Frame, you now have a list to go by. Introducing:

By this you will know who may be a target, who may be safe and who you may never see again. She's spent a long, painstaking time to get this together, but I'll let her tell you about it:

A note from the desk of Flash Frame.
