Calm Wind


We writers do not speak. We do not hear. We have no songs. We have no pictures. We only have scripture. From words we bring images. From words we bring emotion. From words we bring life.

T

This story is a sequel to Apple in the Corner


No matter how hard he tries, Braeburn can’t forget the bad choices he made that forced him to leave Appleloosa… BUT FORGET THAT! There’s an emergency! Maud Pie arrives in town with SHOCKING news! Pinkie Pie needs Braeburn if she is to help her poor, over dramatic sister! It’s time for an adventure! It’s gonna ROCK! And we’ve got cupcakes! (Braeburn is doomed)

A story about enjoying life. We all have done things we regret, but the important thing is to keep on living, find what makes us happy, and more importantly, makes us smile.

can I say that Pinkie still scares me in the cover.

alright, time for me to read it.

I'll comment again after I've read it, but WHAT?! What trickery is this? :pinkiegasp:

besides the bolt, wondering if I should place it in one of the couple libraries I have for my favs.

Well you got me to squee, darn it. :facehoof:

Now please go work on Piercing the Heavens like Pinkie said :pinkiehappy:

OMG pinkie face is terrifying:rainbowhuh:

no don't worry I really didn't want to sleep tonight:fluttercry:

The funniest bits are Maud's 'emotional' quips, even more than poor Braeburn's reactions:rainbowlaugh:

Talking Trees... well, you did warn us that it's gonna be crazy but that was just...wow, just wow.

And here I was expecting Braeburn to be shipped with Maud but this is just as entertaining.:eeyup:

omg this is hilarious with plenty of WTF moments

Once again, well crafted. The contrast between Pinkie and Maud was fantastic. :pinkiehappy: And Pinkie breaking the fourth wall was well-executed. Eagerly awaiting the next part of Piercing the Heavens. :pinkiehappy:

Maud Pie arrives in town with SCHOCKING news!

Schocking?

Once Braeburn was done pulling half of his mane out of his mouth his mouth , he looked behind the pile of hay to see a police Pegasus slowly walking towards them wearing a hat that was blinking blue and red lights.

Two mouths maybe?

Come on Brae Brae! Pony up and ask her out already! This is more painful than a whip hit my ass... yeah, that's pleasure not pain. Anyway, take her some chocolates, take her to dinner, then make some foals!

5660783 Whoopsie, I let one slip.

pie is so tasty. :trollestia: ayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.

IT’S DANGEROUS TO GO ALONE!” Pinkie yelled as Maud was suddenly standing beside her.
“Take this…”
is dat an intentional reference or did it just happen?

5659268

Yep! i was trying to reverse the whole scene having a tree say it would like to be a pony :rainbowlaugh:

is v.g. (was it explained how dash is here in piercing the heavens?)

5660198

Maud is so much fun to write for it hurts :rainbowlaugh::rainbowlaugh:

Thanks for reading! :eeyup:

5660755

SON OF A...

Thanks for pointing that out :facehoof::facehoof:

5660269

NOTHING MAKES SENSE AND I LIKE IT :pinkiecrazy:

5660360

You've gotta be subtle with the 4th wall breaking, because it's easy to go overboard and really break the story. :pinkiecrazy:

Glad you liked it! i'm eager to start work on my baby again :rainbowdetermined2:

5660783

Thanks for that too :eeyup:

5660822

WE"RE GONNA MAKE LOVE. PINK STYLE :pinkiecrazy:

5661025

That was VERY intentional :rainbowwild::rainbowwild::rainbowwild: Zelda ftw

5661072

Take note of the timeline position.

This takes place a month after That's not quite how he told it.

Piercing the Heavens starts two months after Not Quite how he told it :raritywink:

5661096 ...so many pictures, one stupid rule preventing me from posting...

5661102

That and my workplace moved into a new office and i dont have a corner desk anymore (i have a tiny blindspot but thats only if no one is moving around)... so no nsfw during work hours please :raritycry:

5661107 See, you shouldn't have told me that... once I know this sort of thing, I have to control the urge to flood your PM box with NSFW stuff.

5661109

ABSOLUTELY NOT here bro :rainbowlaugh:

I (painfully) can no longer look at DA or derpibooru while at work:raritydespair:

I will literally get fired if that shit shows up on my screen at the wrong time :twilightoops: (im already lucky that our IT doesnt give a shit about monitoring the sites

I LOVED IT!!

"Rock beats everything."

Yes, yes it does. :pinkiecrazy:

Keep up the good work!

“YOU MAD BRO?!” Pinkie leaned forward while sneering.

“You see this face?” Maud said flatly while pointing to her face. “This is my not giving a f*SQUEE*k face.”

oooooooo burn

“I guess that’s your excuse for the romance tag this time, huh?”
Whatever makes the readers squee, right?

ahh calm wind you know me so well

I give this ten trollestias out of ten :trollestia::trollestia::trollestia::trollestia::trollestia::trollestia::trollestia::trollestia::trollestia::trollestia:

5661071 still very scarey

5661195

Hahaha i was itching to use that gag all through the writing process :pinkiecrazy:

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for reading!

5661210

Yessssss gimme ALL the Trollestias! :pinkiecrazy:

Thanks for reading!

I have now been asked on 5 different occasions if I'm ok by the students around me.

Each of them saw me shaking and holding my breath wondering if i was having a seizure or something.

I was trying not to laugh out loud.

Thank you for this wonderful gift.

5661245

Hahaha, glad i could provide some laughs! :scootangel:

Thanks for reading! :eeyup:

5661089 I always enjoy the 4th wall breaks and antics that you choose, because they move the story along and actually have me laughing aloud. :rainbowlaugh: I'm going to enjoy going back through this one and seeing if I can pick up on all the references you make.

Also really glad that the one forum thread is now up. :pinkiehappy: An actual home for theories is going to be fantastic in the coming months. :rainbowlaugh:

5661399

I agree! you have no idea how much i love reading those! :pinkiehappy:

I'm pretty sure those trees were the Posse.. :duck:

5661615

*looks left* *looks right*

What gave you that idea? :pinkiecrazy::pinkiecrazy::trollestia:

Short and sweet, with the perfect amounts of d'awws :twilightsmile: Loved you breaking the fourth wall, as usual with Pinkie :rainbowlaugh: Oh, gosh, her and Maud's antics...

This was perfect. Thank you for making my day.

5661646

Writing Maud was so much fun :rainbowlaugh::rainbowlaugh:

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for reading! :pinkiehappy:

5661651

Just wondering, was it hard for you to be able to keep personality with such different characters in the same story? It sure does seem like it.

5661662

Actually i took a unique approach to the two of them :raritywink: i viewed Pinkie and Maud as being equally insane, but having them show it in polar opposite fashions :pinkiecrazy: Pinkie over the top, loud, and rambunctious. Maud monotonous, reserved, and stonefaced.

So i wrote the same personality... just opposite deliveries! :pinkiehappy:

Rock puns are started to become funny.

5661845

Tried to make them as original and fitting as possible :rainbowlaugh: Didn't want them to seem forced.
