8-bit Bacon


"No business but war. No family but death. No mercy but the grave!"

E

Another "Secret mission" is planned, and Captain Steelwing's one goal is to protect the Princess protege and avoid getting killed, so he plots ways to get out of it, but his schemes always land him back in the to his previous mission. Steelwing is joined by his batman Private Baldrick (Earth Pony) and idealistic twit Lieutenant Bright "Sky" Skies (Pegasus Pony). General Melchett rallies his troops from Canterlot, a thirty-five miles from Ponyville, where he is aided and abetted by his assistant, Captain Shoeshine, pencil-pusher supreme and Steelwing's nemesis.

:rainbowhuh:2 dislikes??

this was good:pinkiehappy:

463899

must be for the grammar error

464020 still not a reason for a dislike

ohh well it was a good read

great job man

Flow of the story is okay. Little/no grammatical/spelling issues. But overall story doesn't excite me much. Sorry.

464475
no problem, well at least that boost my confidence in spelling and grammar.

464120
I thought I took care of spelling/grammar?

Overall I think this is a great story, absolutely spiffing (to go along with the British posh accent). One question, what in the hoof were he and the general saying to each other? I thought they were going to start bursting into song and sing zippedi do da the way they were talking. Do his family have a secret language that only they understand or something? :unsuresweetie:

Top Notch Soldier, keep at it. Tally- ho...

679550
and that's where your help comes in. ahaha it's just how the general talks.

I've got to say that I love Baldrick. He reminds me of Baldrick from Blackadder, does he have a cunning plan too? Keep at it, I can't wait to read more :rainbowlaugh:

679558
This idea was given to me by a friend, he said that it came from a show too which i think that show you mention might be the same. This more of a collab story, imma check that blackadder show.

679561 You should do, it's hilarious. Rowan Atkinson plays the main, you know the guy who plays Mr Bean?. General Melchett is also from Blackadder Goes Fourth (the world war 2 series of Blackadder); his captain is called Darling and he hates being called it to his face, it makes him twitch comically. Blackadder's two sidekicks (sort of) are Baldrick and George and they're the stupid ones. If you want to hear what stereotypical southern British people sound like just listen to how George and Blackadder speak. However I should warn you that most British people don't sound like that :trixieshiftright:

679588
yes, my first of impression of how Brits sound like was with Mr. Bean, but hey Rowan Atkinson is a pretty cool guy. well at least with you here, I can finally progress with the story. ha!

679594 Like I said I'll help in anyway I can. My friend Sour Apple also uses this site and knows about being British (well he is, so I suppose we do both have an advantage). It actually feels strange writing some stories sometimes because my characters are quite often American so I have to write in American myself. Thankfully I can do the American accent so I can kind of see how their voice works; the accent does come from cartoons like MLP though:rainbowwild:

679606
Sour Apple? his OC I take?

679629 If you're asking whether he created it, then, nope. I was the one who came up with the character for 'Keeping Friendship is Magic' but he just kind of likes the character I guess. So he decided when he joined that because I was Dream Wings he had to be Sour Apple. Weird huh? :twilightsheepish:

679659
:eeyup:, so your story 'Keeping Friendship is Magic' is a collab?

679685 Oh no, it was written entirely by me. My friend just really loved the story when he read it and sort of took the name. I wasn't even aware it was his username until he commented on my page. In actual fact I started writing a radio program with these characters and he read out the lines for Sour. I was the one who invented the story and wrote it (that was back when I used to think I was a good writer buy hey it didn't stop me writing)

679701
Oh Ah thought that was a collab. Good story btw. Ah thought Sour would like Rarity, but then Ah guess the story would be predictable if that happens. Oh yea, why not join the RP thread in the group? we need more active members :pinkiehappy: and it's fun too

679730 You'll have to explain more to me sorry, you're speaking in fancy to me :twilightoops:

679755
Sorry, I was hook up in RP (my OCxAJ so the 'I' there would be 'Ah' so it has that southern accent) hah. I guess I need to stop RP(roleplay) for a while

679763 Oh that wasn't the problem, I just don't fully understand how RP works. I went on the page for role play and had no idea what was happening :pinkiecrazy:

679768
Ahh, I see. How should I put this... it's like your taking on the role of your OC and her/his partner (depends, if its OC or another Background Pony since the Main Cast are taken. except Shining Armor and Cadence) then you just insert yourself in the role play. Kinda hard to explain but I hope this explanation helps

679804 Thanks I'll maybe give it a go later on. By the way, when do people usually come on this site? Everyone always seems to be on really late at night by the looks of things :ajsleepy:

679814
Not sure. What time is it there? so i can make a good guess

679817 It's just about 2:35pm. I actually forgot there was a time difference between as all :facehoof:

679821
I see, its 11:43 pm here which makes them 11-ish am. I'm ahead 12 hours. so, just wait a few hours and they'll be online

679851 Wow, I didn't realise there was such a massive difference in time :facehoof:. I need to get better at Geography. Just to ask, you know in America, do you really have to stay at high school until you're 17?

679859
Actually I'm not from America. :twilightblush:

679874 Where are you from then? Does your school system work like mine? It's only compulsary to be at school 'til we're 16 here. Then it's our choice whether to go to Sixth Form or not. By the way, I am still in education.:derpytongue2:

679883
In my school year, yes I think? we all leave highschool at the age of 16 (some are older ranging form 17-19). Now they change it into K12, additional 2 years in high school. I'm from the Philippines, sucks to be me lol

679891 Yeah I just looked up where the Philippines was (my geography's really not that great) but now I know. According to Wiki your home is 'rich in biodiverstiy', intersting. Anyway, greetings from across the World :pinkiehappy:

679901
Haha! Not to be rude, but I find you guys either hate or really don't know geography? even Bronymaster( the leader of the group) didn't even know where Buckingham is (funny though, I was about to use that too in the story since the name really relates in Equestria)

679913 Oh no, don't imagine I hate geography or something. I do like to know where things are, it's just that I'm probably more interested in the enviromental side to countries, or the cultural side. And I do know where Buckingham is, and it would be awesome to see that in a Pony story. Maybe it could be the Pony Queens Jubilee and the mane 6 are going there to celebrate (to go along with the diamond jubilee that's giving us a few days off next week) :raritywink:

679930
Now this sounds weird ass question but are there bullies who bully you for being a Brony/Pegasister? :pinkiehappy:
just curious though since I read many self-insert fic being bullied because that. :pinkiecrazy:

679942 No I can't say that anyone minds. They definately know I am one though. No, I think they're all used to the fact that I've always liked this kind of stuff and have never cared about what they've said before. I'm more likely to pick on myself then someone else is. I just laugh when they say something or stop listening. How can they bully me if I already make jokes about myself? I think it may also be down to the fact that I'm quite shy around people and have a tendency to start day dreaming no matter where I am :yay:.

679961
Wow, well at least that satiate my curiosity. :pinkiehappy:

Well, I'm off to bed. Nice talking to ya, and sure is glad to have some pegasister in the group. Haha, I'm sure we'll get along just fine. If ya got any question at all (about the group or need some idea) just don't hesitate to ask me or any active member. Well, good night/afternoon to you.

I'm excited in which direction this will go... We'll see....

I cannot give you a thumb now, but I shall put on read list. I'm curious about your RP character...

Sorry, but my OC has different personality here than in RP
