I'm trying my best to have a double release this week, since it's going to be extra intense. Here's a preview of what's to come:

So, yeah. You may need to mentally prepare yourself for what Mosely's about to pull this time around with a particular video:
WARNING: I don't normally advocate this much profanity, but this is a Code Orange situation. As in, Mosely, you really done messed up this time.
I have literally been saving this image for several times I've happened to upload a new part, but kept forgetting about it. Part Twelve is now up as an early Thanksgiving gift to you all. Hope you enjoy this, your Thanksgiving weekend*, and the MLP season finale!
* To all those fans who may not necessarily be American, enjoy this, the MLP season finale, and not having to worry about gaining weight this weekend!
I'm one of the many who are very excited about the new tags. They came as the best surprise in the world to me and I was almost in tears last night when I found out. I have always seen this story as a drama in my mind and never thought I'd see the day when it could be formally categorized as such.
Yes, I know there aren't really any song and dance numbers in the new part, but it's the play's opening night, so it seemed fitting.
Enjoy the first of the new two-parter, everyone! Act II's going to end with a bang!
If you saw these two thrashing through the water trying not to drown, which one would you save?
a.) Hold a spa day with Rara and Coco and completely avoid both of them.
b.) Give Rara and Coco all the hugs and completely avoid both of them.
Young Applejack: Aunt Orange! Uncle Orange! Thank y'all so much for lettin' me stay!
Aunt Orange: "Y'all". [laughs] Isn't she just the living end?
Uncle Orange: [chuckle] How quaint.
Aunt Orange: Don't worry. We'll have you acting like a true Manehattanite in no time.
Come one, come all! Watch in awe as I corrupt Mosely's only canon line into something absolutely terrible!
Right now, I'm laughing really hard because right at a part where Mosely tries to visit Coco in the hospital with a bouquet of flowers, I happened upon this GIF:
I figured you'd be interested in some of the songs that touched on certain nerves in me for the Act II finale. Warning: they're all a bit odd in their own way.
For the parts about Babs' birth parents and their ill-fated romance (which you will soon find out about in full), this song always came to mind:
Cameo doesn't strike me as a Madonna type, but for some reason this song is like her leitmotif...
Of course, I couldn't help myself when I found out about this, so here's a look at the Orange of our production and the dark secrets he has...
(Oh, and Coco's parents show up, too.)
It involves cookie cakes. Lots and lots of cookie cakes.
So basically, this can be a good intro to the IYGALL universe or a nice supplement. It's written like an Act I part (with a bit more humor), so it was a nice break for me to write fluffy/humorous stuff about these two in the midst of all this Act V drama. Feel free to hit it up and enjoy!
Turns out it really wasn't that bad after all...
New part's coming out tomorrow at noon(ish), you know the deal by now. This part is extra controversial, with a twist only my roommate knew about before tonight! Hope you all enjoy it anyway, and feel free to comment on what you thought of it!
Hi everybody. First of all, I hope all of my readers have been enjoying the latest chapter of A Tale of Two Suns today. Please remember to tell me what you think.
Moving on from that, I have a question I'd like to present to the fandom. It's something I've tried to answer on my own, but I haven't had much luck, and I wasn't sure what other places to really ask. But it's something that's been bugging me.
In all my years of writing, I've always figured I will go back to every single character I can and give them attention beyond the original story itself. It's not something all writers emphasize, but it's something I personally enjoy. I like to give characters as much potential as they deserve, and that often means going back to them, writing new content about them, etcetra. But then, when writing my latest story, Light Pollution, I realized something.
Rating Scale:
12/10—a complete masterpiece; flawless and outstanding
11/10—Excellent, near-perfect film
10/10—the standard rating; awesome film with a couple of flaws
9/10—a wonderful film with several flaws
8/10–a great film with numerous flaws but not enough to ruin it
...and it was freakin' twisted. And also surprisingly plot-relevant.
Now, I'm used to having strange dreams about my characters. One of them once involved two of my IRL OC villainesses fusing into a giant dragon. Stuff like that isn't that weird to me anymore. But this thing that happened last night...hoo boy.
Once Babs gets filled in on the information concerning Coco, she doesn't quite respond how you'd think she would. At first, I had her just having blind anger towards Mosely, but then this heart-killer popped into my head:
"I haven’t seen him at all the past few years, and I’m sure Uncle Momo will be just as excited to see me."
The Rich family had never been known for being cheapskates, but they could at least smell a scam when they saw one.
“They’re charging how much for these?!” Diamond yelled, losing her composure for a second.
“Two thousand bits for the cheap seats, miss,” the pony at the ticket booth replied civilly. “Why you askin’, kid? Not enough in your piggybank?”
