The feelsssss!!!!!!!! It almost makes me not want to read until it is finish it... damn it. what to do, what to do...

how I expected it to end ... though I'm satisfied

Poor red sad but I can't wait to see what happens next

Hang in there, buddy. Even broken animals like John Apple and Rainbow Dash will get a chance at love. Speaking of which, I feel it sufficiently relevant to state that us guys love a good romance as much as the ladies do...contrary to popular opinion...it just has to be genuine...unlike The Notebook...or any of the Twilight books.

On a side note, I've..uhh...just discovered some of the "brony community." I know not all of us are like this, but the bad eggs really...really seem to overshadow we non-neckbeards. Look at these motherfuckers!

And...worst of all...this guy:

Something must be done about this shit...I don't know what...but we gotta' do something. This is terrifying.

Oh yes the common stereotype where dudes can't read romance but girls love it but whatever and those pics! The first one made me flinch. I can't Believe that people do that shit it's really gross

4141232

I know, right? Man, them shits is fucked up.

Anyway...random question about these "human in Equestria" stories: How terrified would medium dog-sized, little ponies be of massive, smart chimpanzees running about? Pretty terrified, I'd imagine...I'm not a friendly-looking guy myself. I'd imagine they'd call us "trolls" or something similar.

4141232

Nigga, you better answer my completely inane questions, or I ain't rollin' out Chapter Nine until Armageddon...which could be any day now...so maybe that was an empty threat....crap.

Can I try that again?

Lol sorry for not answering earlier and I think if humans were in it equestria we would probably be listed under the scary as shit monsters

4149198

Nah, you're good, man. I'm just messing with you. Anyway...yeah. I agree with you. Humans are indeed terrifying. I wouldn't want to be a pony just for that reason. It'd be like having giant monkeys as your new overlords.

I would feel so bad for the ponies especially if people tried to ride them, it would probably Scar them for life

4152010

Probably, man. That...and we'd break their spines trying to ride them. But they're so little!!...awww...who could be mean to little, talking horsies?

Ninth chapter is almost done...it's got an introduction to Mac's life as an SF operator...so get ready for military jargon and a bunch of references you probably won't know or care about! (Oh, joy of joys!!) Clearly, I'm best writer in human history. Clearly. Bear with me, and I'll be able to write the best Michael Crichton-esque fanfiction about little, cartoon horsies in human history!! Just as I've always dreamed! I have rather humble dreams, you see...

Don't worry, though, ladies. I know you just want the romance part...I shall deliver. But I need to expand both Mac and Rainbow's backgrounds before getting into that. You girls probably have no interest in hearing about weapons, fighting, and whatnot. Fair enough. But suffering begets profundity...pain makes pleasure worthwhile. Love is all the sweeter when you have to fight and suffer for it. It's a style of romance that can appeal to men as well. A roMANce. Eeyup. I know what my fans want...all four of you. Don't mob me all at once, guys! Please...it's embarrassing...hehehehe...I know...I know. I'm super cool, right? (...so alone...)

It's not all going to be blood, death, drugs, madness, and despair. I'll be adding bits of levity and light-hearted stuff here and there. It takes more than just gravitas to make good drama...all dark and no light doth wangsty, hipster crap make. Also, humor. "Stories without a sense of humor suck and are completely unrealistic," said the man who wrote a story about magical, talking ponies, dragons, chimeras, what-have-you. There's humor in everything...no matter how morbid. Even during the darkest, most dreadful times in one's life, one can find things to laugh about.

Ok it official chapter nine sounds awesome and only heartless douche bags get Joy by hurting innocent animals. And dude I think if it came down to it ponies would kick peoples asses

4154177

Uhh...I gotta' disagree there, man...all humans would have to do is send a bunch of 220-250 lbs guys with automatic weapons. How is a pint-sized, little horse going to stop a bunch of big apes armed to the teeth? They wouldn't last a week. The poor things wouldn't stand a chance. But who'd be coldhearted enough to hurt 'em? Look at their widdle faces! Awww...they're scared...nobody could bring themselves to hurt 'em.

Hmm...maybe that's the ponies' primary defense against us...cuteness...

Hey they can give people heart attacks from over cuteness ponies can be dangerous, especially when they do the puppy eyes

*heart explodes in chest*.....well...I'm comin' home to see ya' again Grandpa....

See? Ponies can be deadly with ultra cuteness.

Eeyup. I just suffered acute adorable intoxication...the only treatment method available is to listen to no less than four hours of Acid Bath. This upcoming chapter is going to be pretty Mac-heavy, but Rainbow is going to have a pretty interesting scene herself in the next chapter. In later chapters, I'll fully expand Rainbow's childhood and why she is the way she is.

Oh, and I'm typing this on a PC at work...I should be lifting boxes and setting up wooden pallets to pick up with the forklift right now. Just wanted to get off this quick message.

Just to let you guys know, I'm not dead...and I haven't quit writing the story yet. I'm taking a bit of a break what with work and school and all. In between, I'm tweaking what I've written thus far. I'll be releasing chapters nine and ten when I'm done. Chapter Nine is exclusively told through Mac's perspective, whereas Chapter Eleven (when I get to that) will be the same with Rainbow's perspective.
Also, Chapter Nine is rather long, violent, and seems to have little in common with the actual show itself...which is somewhat the point but...yeah. If you don't like it, feel free to skip to the end and continue onto Chapter Ten to stay in the loop. Thanks for reading.

4215475 Woo awkward breakfast! I know 'Murican, just meh.
Science. Nuff said

finally I can read the new chap... uh?... no new chapter?... ok... I wait, aw!

Just when I got time to read it

This is admittedly a strange thought to have after a chapter with so much deep, obsessive drama and pitch-black themes, but I can't help but wonder why Ditzy can't make rent. She has a job, and Ponyville property can't be that pricy. Low-paid government workers needing roommates to afford a place to live is mainly an urban phenomenon, not a rural one.

Ah, well. It's nice to see that Mac and Rainbow's mutual obsessive pining for each other is just as mutually dysfunctional as well.
