My aspirations are a few sizes too large. They say I'll grow into them, but will I? Or will the outfit be changed to a more modern one, a larger one still, or one so skin-tight that I bust at the seams trying to fit in. Modern designs and retro fads swirl around me but I've yet to fashion an outfit regal enough for my ego, yet humble enough for my means.
"Wait" they said, as the dresses changed in form and style before my eyes.

A man sits at a table in front of a mirror.
Before him is some cheese,
a knife
and a single coin.
He picks up the coin and flips it.
Heads cheese, tails knife.

The coin lands.
Tails.
The man picks up the knife...
and thrusts it into his throat.

The man dies.
What happens after this event?
There's nobody left.

End scene

As I write about Tirek, I remember his first appearance in season 4. I recall how he represented self doubt as he would sap your energy and strength and force you to bow to his will. And I know in this story, he is a metaphor for my "older male self", as in, the self doubt I have at points... Now, like Starshine points out in the unreleased portion, we cannot kill him! After all, to kill him would be to kill myself. And so, the question becomes, what does Scorpan represent now? I think, in a

Little Mister No One
By Jaydove

Little Mister No One
Wandering around
Little Mister No One
Is lost and nowhere bound

Traveling the world and
Nowhere to be seen
Looking for his girl
Saying "where's my Eveline?"

Living in the embers
Dying in the flame
Wait til he remembers
His life is Heaven's game

Searching for tomorrow
Finding yesterday
All his pain and sorrow
Will never go away

Little Mister No One
Falling underground
Little Mister No One
Has no one else around

Had a few spots in the new chapter that I didn't like. I am going to overhaul those parts, and that is pushing the editing process and the publishing process of the new chapter back. No pictures today.

So … I picked that title because it looked and read better than my other alternatives. One of which was “The Heavy Hand of Whatever” which really didn’t inspire a lot of confidence. Another was the several knit-together topics that this post was to cover … which would leave you, readers, with a giant string to look at. Then the last was a giant string (______) in place of “the Writer.”

So I’ve decided to start doing blog reviews of the official MLP series, which will eventually accompany my video reviews. Fair warning, this review assumes you have already seen the episode. Anyway…

So where to begin with this series?

What? Why? Why be like everyone else? I’m a positive reviewer, why should I start with what I hate?
(Sigh.)

I'm not going yet, however.

I want to be here for the people who also have to watch their friends leave. I refuse to leave the site anytime soon. I may be gone for a few days, but usually that means my family dragged me somewhere else in the world where I couldn't bring my phone.

I feel a bit upset that the guy I love is most likely leaving, but I'm not following him out. I'll go with him to the "gates" but no further. His work here may be done, but mine is not.

After many delays and struggles with formatting cover art and other book-related tribulations, my first book of horse stories will soon be something y'all can buy with your real, human money! I've just ordered the test copy, so I can agonizingly take whatever red ink (it'll actually be black or blue, I don't like red pens) needs to be put to the pages before the final version is done. This means it'll likely be something you can get before the holidays. Should there be anyone in your life that
