Skarsnik asked:

Dot, What do you think of the mare your sister is dating?

I think Winterspear is great! She's actually the best marefriend Iridescence has had in my opinion. All the others were so snobby and mean. They never wanted to color with me or play. Winterspear does all of that! We're friends.

Rockability asked:

Sunny, how are you holding up? Does all your newfound responsibility come with increased pay? Also, was making Silent Knight deal with those dragons a secret punishment?

Icefire asked:

Do you guys have any kind of relationship outside of writing? And if so, did you meet through writing or some other way? Just curiosity, if you don't want to answer, I understand.

DJthomp asked:

Here's a question I've been wondering about for a while now, but feel free to ignore it if it's too personal (and my apologies in advance if it is). Are the two of you a couple?

Dale asked:

JML asked:

Is there any kind of timeline up for the stories of Crystal and Silent compared to the main story/seasons of MLP? I'm completely lost on whether Discord already happened, or if Cadence and Shining defeated Sombra or what might be coming up.

Officially, no. Crystal and I do have an incredibly detailed one that we work from. It is filled with spoilers though. As far as matching Q&B to the main story line it works like this:

House Keeping

As a special treat this week we're getting three updates! I just launched Chapter 5 of Three of Diamonds so that it will sync up properly with Secrets of a Royal Guard. I want to show why Sunny showed up the way she did before I resolve it :D

Another Friday means another Ask Us! If you have questions for Crystal, myself, or our characters be sure to submit them via the Ask Us form! We'll answer them as we can.

Mikesnipe asked:

Silent Knight, Have you written your mother recently? How has she been recently?

SK: Written some. Although I've actually been to visit her a bit more lately. She much prefers that I've found. Who knew!

Shadow Ironsword asked:

When Crystal and I launched Ask Us I wasn't sure how much traction we'd get. Ask Silent Knight had been popular on Tumblr but these things are still hard to gauge. Suffice to say this was popular. Our form has been flooded with questions in a very short period of time. That is exciting!

Soul lord asked:

Just read the answer to Horus question last week is that it thought you was creative

A while back a user propositioned me about paying to change my story. Yes folks, I'm not kidding. I was offered money to change my story. Evidently breaking up Silent Knight and Iridescence was so horrible that it was worth money to fix. Obviously I refused.

Silent Knight tells Azurite that his toys are models for wargames which got me thinking, how big is the Equestrian Navy/Air Force anyway? What kind of capabilities do they have? Are they only troop flying troop transports? Do they have specialized unicorns who can bombard ground or other air targets? Is launching pegasus saboteurs at other airships a thing?

Sunny, have you ever tried any sports?

Schedule Update

As many of you may have noticed I released a Secret's chapter this week. I did that so that the final chapter would not occur on "travel day." Travel day is also known as Christmas Eve Eve and is traditionally when everyone is on the road heading home. With the holiday immediately following that I just imagined the finale would go fairly unnoticed.
