Sketched this up for an OC-tober prompt, thought I'd share it here.

Well, last chapter of "For the Swarm" is done and has JUST started going through editing (IE poorly because I suck at it). So you can all expect it to be done shortly(or a month, becuase knowing me I'll stop and chase lights around my room randomly, or pet cats...or any other random super ADD thinsg that stop me).
Next month shall mark the beginning of Know Your Mare the Movie. The "movie" documents the final days of the show and the very last episode of KYM. However, the episode was lost long ago in a mix up chaos, stupidity, and riceicles. Thus it falls to our heroes(?) to find the long lost episode.
Here's a MLP trivia question: What is the connection between the season 1 episode Swarm of the Century, the Irish capital, and soul music?
Episode Review
I have mixed feelings, going into this one. I can't really remember my initial impressions of the episode, only later thoughts about how flawed and derivative it was. Guess I'll see how I feel about it now.
The first thing I noticed was the background music. Throughout the episode, I think William Anderson did a good job on that.
Greetings to all changeling OCs and changeling lovers out there. Welcome to my channel. Thanks for taking the time to check this page out. Sure, it looks blank at the moment but hopefully it will build up in time and become a little more interesting
So, I'll quickly go over a few thing regarding what channel this will be.
My latest story, Bee Kind and Waggle On, is a short look into the world of the honeybee, guided by Fluttershy.
It had taken a while to repair all the damage to Ponyville... So it wasn't until a week after when Shepherd showed up at Pinkie Pie's apartment window. He threw a rock at her window. No response. He grumbled, then threw another. And another... And another-
Pinkie: "Hi Shepherd!"
Shepherd: "GAHHH!" He held his chest hard, falling over, as Pinkie Pie just appeared right behind him "Haa! Haa! Haa! P-Pinkie!"
Pinkie: "That's me! Why ya throwing rocks at my window, Shepherd?"
Hey all. SO, as you may have noticed...I haven't updated Swarm since April.
My bad. The reason is this: I've hit a snag in the story, and it's a really imporant part that has been snagged. No spoilers, but it involves Inti and Apocalypse.
The other big thing is that I've been involved with The Infinite Loops, located at Spacebattles, and sadly I've been getting more ideas for that rather than Swarm.
I just re-watched Swarm of the Century. For those who don't remember, in this episode, adorable little creatures called parasprites are introduced as pets to various members of the main cast. Everypony goes goo-goo for these cuties...except for Pinkie Pie. She's the one who knows what they're called. She's the one who leaps immediately to action.
Hey, guys, long time no see. While I'm sure some people have probably dismissed the story as dead, I assure you that it has not died. To prove it, here's the next chapter, "Swarm of a Different Colour"! Discussion after the page break.
"I'm afraid an emergency has come up in Fillydelphia. Apparently there's been some sort of infestation."—Princess Celestia, Swarm of the Century.
"Parasprite infestation in Fillydelphia eradicated. That's great news!" —Pinkie Pie, Daring Done.
Well that sure took a while, didn't it? At least Filly is finally safe though, after 6 whole seasons of being besieged by parasprites.
Guys, you're super awesome for waiting for little ol me to get off his lazy ass and write Swarm. Have a quick Interlude for you all.
Alrighty, first to say it.
Slacked off again.
Blame my attention span. I tend to pile up a ton of things, and well....no excuse. BUT here I am, with a few things to note.
Well, here we are. The very first episode written by arguably the most controversial member of the MLP writing staff:

Grrrrrrrrrrrrreetings everypony, and welcome back to Deconstruction is Magic, my Retrospective/Review/Analysis of every episode of My Little Pony: Friendship is magic ever. Today, we have a strange one, showing us that only the strangest of ponies knows how to handle a Parasprite plague: it's Swarm of the Century! Without wasting any more time, let's get on with the analysis! I am the Mage of Mind, reminding you, as always, that even a
Ah, the abridged series, LittleKuriboh’s gift to fandoms everywhere. And when it comes to ponies, the first name that comes to mind is Sherclop Pones’s Friendship is Witchcraft. Or the Mentally Advanced Series. Or…
Look, we’re covering the birthplace of Sweetie Bot.
We all swear to our basic moral values - at our most private core selves, there is little in the way of movement that would suggest that we've dedicated ourselves to any changes that'd warn outside influences to consider us as otherwise judged - unless we'd unexpectedly undergone some manner of rehabilitation or dramatic religious upheaval, we're always as we have been perceived. We are wired the way we were meant to be wired, by upbringing and parental influence
