One of the multiple recurring conflicts throughout Pony-Me, the conflict of whether or not Twilight should return to the simulation, will be wrapping up and resolving within the next couple of chapters. In its place will be a new story arc focusing on Lisa and Samantha's lives after the simulation, which will take place at the beginning of Part 3.

Basic synopsis of Part 3 provided below the break for those eager to know.

Remember this blogpost?

It's getting close to a year since we've last talked. My only mode of contact left is via Facebook Messenger, and that's only because I've never used it until now.

Tonight, I have just sent a formal, true-to-the-heart apology to a friend that I deeply hurt last year. I know that there's a good chance that we may never reconcile, but I just hope that he will at least accept the apology.

"Unforgotten" has been rewritten from the ground up, sticking closely to the original plans for the story. At 3.2k words, it's the longest chapter I've ever written for any story.

The next chapter is yet to be rewritten, so the old, plot-twisted version will remain up in the meantime. ^_^

Plot-Twisted "Corrupted Twilight" chapters will be reposted under the upcoming story "Pony-Me: Rogue".

The rewrite of chapter "Unforgotten" is currently standing at roughly 2,600 words and counting, and I still don't consider it finished. This was originally supposed to be one of the final chapters of Part 2, providing plenty of new information to the readers to ease them into new conflicts in Part 3.

And I guess avoiding straight-up infodumping and instead writing it all into the story arc is just gonna balloon the chapter into the longest one yet in the Pony-Me universe.

Drew it myself in about half an hour.

Thoughts?

This directly replaces the scene in the original chapter where Lisa, Samantha, and Timothy arrive at the old office building. In contrast to that chapter, where Twilight is playing the part of Lisa, this chapter instead has Lisa herself, free from any and all influence from Twilight. As such, her personality from before the simulation shines through for the very first time in the story.

First wrote it roughly halfway through Part 1. Last edited at the beginning of Part 2.

Given all the chaos surrounding the story concerning parallel timelines and alternate universes spawned by a single plot twist, I'd might as well rewrite the thing from scratch.

Read More

Now that I have a better sense of direction for the story, I don't quite see as much of a point anymore in writing filler chapters that'd supply information which is gonna be provided by upcoming chapters.

Now that the timeline of Pony-Me has been split in two, I can continue on with the original plot in the main story, while keeping the AU separate in the second story for those who would like to see it expanded upon.

Read More

Every chapter following "Split Lives" (with the exception of the prequel chapters) are now undergoing rewrites. The current versions of the chapters have been transferred over to a separate, spinoff story, and will be deleted once that story is published.

However, in order to keep a stable update schedule, the rewritten chapters will not be published as they are completed, but instead will be published all at once, coinciding with the publishing of the new story.

Read More

So then.

I'll be splitting off an AU for Pony-Me to continue in its current direction, while the main story will be rolling back the past few chapters and instead continuing on the originally planned path I had for it.

Oh boy.

To fill in for regular updates, I'll instead be writing and posting a number of prequel chapters for Pony-Me, giving additional detail on how and why certain characters became the way they are now, as well as revealing additional lore that up to this point, has largely remained unseen in my story planning document.

Yup. I'm putting the main story on hold, for now, to try an recollect some thoughts and work out a plan that won't be studded with possible plotholes.

Read More

Which of these two plans would you prefer? One of these two will serve as the framework for the rest of Part 2.

After a lengthy 2 hour or so session of Discord conversation, I've come to a conclusion that both explains the functionality of the AI, as well as how Twilight became corrupted, taking over Lisa's body.

It's a loose theory, given how it's back and forth conversation, but it's a usable theory nonetheless. I won't reveal anything directly, so y'all just have to keep reading to know for yourself...

Feel free to send guest chapters via PM, or post them in the official Pony-Me Discord server!

With how much has been revealed in the latest chapters, I'd like to see your guys' take on the direction of the story!

Just remember:
Keep the chapter at the same rating as the story.
Self-inserts/OCs are allowed.
Adding new places is fine as well.

Other than that, happy writing!

Lemme just say this now:
SPOILER WARNING BELOW THE BREAK!

(Except for What If... but that fic can get an update bump pretty much at any time I want, so eh.)

Starting with Pony-Me, I've got a notepad document filled to the brim with ideas to patch up a particular plothole that I've been meaning to patch for a few months now...

Read More

Lemme just say that there's gonna be quite a bit of new lore introduced in the short time before and after the end of Pony-Me part 2.

It's gonna be dealing with both the simulation itself, and how Twilight and Pinkie currently exist outside it as Lisa and Samantha.

Also, Timothy's gonna make a comeback to the current arc while Andrew will be leaving in the meantime.

Just be prepared for a story-changing batch of lore and character/worldbuilding.

Read More

We'll kick things off with some more character/lore building chapters to segway into the end of Part 2 on the Pony-Me side of things, while My Own Reality will begin work on new chapters at the same time as continuing editing.

Read More

I honestly feel like this is the most awkwardly-written chapter I've ever created. I tried to maintain a sense of continuity, but at the same time since I wanted to change the story a little, ended up diving into multiple areas where things just felt... off.

Chances are that I'll probably come back to the chapter and rewrite it from scratch. I'm really not much in a rush for the My Own Reality project, since I'm still busy setting up the world and lore in the main Pony-Me story.
