Update - livecasting on Sunday is a go.
Gonna cancel the Stalk Me While I Write livecast tomorrow. Been sick for a week and while I'm recovering, I'm just not up to it yet And 'cause it wouldn't be the same without my bestie Pixel_Spark in the chat room. If I can, I'll work some on the next chapter of Mad Seeress, which is almost done, tho I may want to break it up into two chapters.
From one of my favorite chapters to my absolute least favorite…
I’m not gonna mix words here: I hate Ch.6(Stagnation). I have no qualms admitting Ch.1(Transition) and Ch.2(Reprieve) are worse written, but this chapter in particular was the one I had the worst time actually writing, and it was for one specific reason…
Alternate Titles: Fear, Part Two, Death —Since the last chapter wasn’t “Fear, Part One” I obviously couldn’t name this one “Part Two” but as you can tell, I did keep “Fear” as the title for thematic reasons.

This is one of my favorites from my PVCF app stories. Most of the time when I write Dewdrop she gets overshadowed by another blue-green unicorn with a weather cutie mark. But with Snowcatcher not appearing in this story at all, my inspiration was a 'what-if?' scenario. What if Dewdrop had never befriended Snowcatcher?
With the launch of my Patreon account, I am starting a new series called "Fluttercheer's Weekly Writing"! This will be a series of reports to show you what I have been writing each week. You can read a longer and in-depth version of this report on Patreon for pledging 5$ per month in the "The Early Foal Sneaks A Peek" tier.
Stalk Me While I Write has been moved to tomorrow, Saturday the 21st 12:00 noon Pacific Time. Catch the usual gang of Sombra crazies on my Picarto channel at https://picarto.tv/HailKingSombra
Behold! The best chapters in the entire story! I’m not exaggerating; the Mount Aris arc is fantastic! And you have Great White Prime to thank for its existence.
Ah, Ch.11(Closure). For a while, I considered this to be the best chapter of The Bonds of Love, even better than the Smolder and Mount Aris chapters. It’s not hard to see why—Ch.10(Home) did most of the setup concerning Gallus’ feelings toward Griffonstone, leaving Ch.11(Closure) to ride that setup and finally discuss his and Gruff’s relationship—something I’ve wanted to address since the very beginning with A Day for Family.
Alternate Title: Griffonstone — For obvious reasons. I didn’t go with it since I still preferred naming the chapters after their main themes.
Ch.10(Home) is weird for me because even though it’s one of the best chapters of the story, I feel far more passionate for the next chapter. Though I suppose that’s only natural when this is clearly a glorified Part One to Ch.11(Closure)’s Part Two. And yes, that does mean this was another chapter split incident, as are the next four chapters.
Alternate titles: Pessimism, Paranoia — Didn’t choose either, preferring to name it, not after Silver’s problem, but rather the solution to it.
Before I begin discussing this chapter properly, I just wanna say I feel so bad for Silverstream. I put her through so much crap in this story, it’s not even funny. But that begs the question why Silver’s story-line became what it is. To answer that we must first discuss what this chapter could have been.
We’re in the final stretch now, and there’s no better way to begin bringing this story to a close than the event we’ve been hyping up since the very beginning: Gallus and Silverstream’s 2nd Date.
This has been a long time coming, and you better believe I relished every second I wrote this chapter, especially since I could finally write the lovebirds being actually happy!
It’s always funny looking at this chapter with that old “I won’t let these chapters exceed 20k words again” promise in mind.
While the first half of the Mount Aris arc was dedicated to Gallus-Stream finally having a break from all the plot-mandated drama so they could actually bask in their love and affection, this half returns us to the status quo to resolve the last of that drama.
And at long last, we’re here: The Gallus/Ocean Flow scene. And of course, it gets a whole chapter dedicated to it!
I feel it best to begin by reiterating how Ocean Flow’s beach-side tirade was the very first thing ever conceptualized regarding the Mount Aris arc, becoming fully realized thanks to Great White Prime’s suggestions.
Hello all! After a few exciting days of work on fics both large and small, I wanted to post a little about what I'm up to.
And we’re back for the final part of the Ch.15(Family, Part Two) discussion!
The story so far: After a grueling impromptu therapy session, Gallus has finally won Ocean Flow’s approval, and the duo now races toward the surface world to inform Silverstream of this glorious development, alongside an explanation for why such approval was refused for so terribly long…

Stalk Me While I Write Sunday is a go for today. The story? A holiday/Hearthwarming themed, Sombra and Discord one. The tentative title is, "King Sombra's New Sweater" - unless my fellow FIMFic peeps can come up with a better title after they read it.
And we're back! Due to apparent word count limitations, this chapter's discussion required it be split into separate posts, and today I bring you the second half, containing the oh so tumultuous resolution to Gallus and Grandpa Gruff's fued. Let's not waste anymore time and get right on into it!
