Nebelgastropod Heralds · 5:47pm July 12th

With Bloomburrow previews ongoing, I was reminded that Snail is in fact a supported creature type in Magic, and has been for months thanks to Lost Caverns of Ixalan. As such, I have some cleanup to do, and not just because of the mucus trails.

Relentless Advances · 11:40am May 31st, 2023

This one's mostly for me and hawthornbunny, maintainer of PonyMTG, to whom I apologize for making their life more complicated. In my defense, WotC did it first.

In case it wasn't clear at this point, doing something special on the specific day of my sixth Fimficversary does not appear to be in the cards. That being said, I am working on a few things that will hopefully see the light of day come this weekend.

Sacrifice a Story: Fallout: Equestria – Outside the Game · 1:24pm Feb 7th, 2016

Hello all, and welcome to what will hopefully not be a regular feature, where I discuss an idea that I have to admit I’m not going to realize and that I can’t pawn off to The Idea Exchange. So, I eulogize that which will never be, and this particular never-was is…

Well, you did see the blog title, didn’t you?

I've had a series of Rarity moments lately. Inspiration struck me right between the eyes, and I got the ideas out as quickly as I could before they took their leave. Manufactured accents may or may not have been involved.

The end results are twofold: Expect an amusing story in short order and a special edition card blog right now.

RB_ has posted some fascinating ideas about Fimfiction as a card game. You can see the concept outline here and some example cards here. It's a delightful concept, and I naturally felt the need to highlight it.

Friendship is Card Games: Sleepless in Ponyville · 1:36pm Sep 6th, 2015

If you were expecting “Magic Duel,” you can find it here. This week, we’re looking at the first part of the Crusaders’ dream trilogy… which, due to how I ended up doing this blog, will be the last one I look at. And largely isn’t in Ponyville. Go figure.

Ah yes, the episode whose title works equally well for the plot of “Putting Your Hoof Down.” Let’s take a look.

This week, we return to the main comics, though these two feel more like Friends Forever issues that missed the boat.

Friendship is Card Games: The Friendship Problem of Silver Blaze & Time Enough for Dance · 1:54pm Mar 8th, 2020

Sorry for the slight delay; I blame Daylight Savings Time. In any case, this week we have a tribute to 1890s mystery stories and 1990s teen sitcoms.

I assure you, I will explain.

Friendship is Card Games: Homecoming, Part 2 · 12:55pm Jan 3rd, 2021

When last we left the comics, Twilight had sent Zecora and a brute squad to Farasi, a land Zecora had abandoned long ago on a quest for magical power… leaving behind her friends as well.

Any resemblance to Sunset Shimmer is probably coincidental. Besides, as far as I know, Sunset’s never had to deal with a grootslang. Time for adventurous diplomacy!

Canon. Alternate. Universe. On paper, this should be my absolute favorite comic storyline, bar none. Let’s see if that hypothesis holds.

This week, we have Rarity faced with a seemingly irreconcilable dilemma between her artistic desires and economic realities that threatens to crush her dreams.

Why does this sound so familiar?

This week, it's that classic mainstay of mid-century comedy, the man in a dress. And you know what? I thought it worked. Not because it was a stallion in a dress, but... well read on to find out. It'll be in the thicker paragraphs.

Friendship is Card Games: Cosmos, Part 1 · 12:31pm Dec 22nd, 2019

This week, we begin our look into a grand epic of madness, mayhem, and historical revisionism. And I do mean “begin.” With no more seasons to pad things out, Achilles is in danger of overtaking the tortoise, and a four-part—technically five-part; #75’s double-sized—series with Andy Price’s art definitely has enough material for two blogs. Let’s start stargazing.
