*bouncies around in a lil circle*

It's here, it's here, it's heeeeeeere!

Trixie! Yay!

6340523 Indeed!

And a wonderful chapter as always!

(Good to see you, too, btw.)
(I hope that you'll have some excellent art from this chapter for us later.)
*hint, hint*

Anyway, loved this chapter, although.........

Dang you, Cody! You had me crying like a baby in some parts of this one! (The scenes between Celestia and Dash, the one between AJ and AB, mostly.)
But I wouldn't have it any other way! Good job!

All of this was excellent, and well, well worth waiting for. Can't wait for Chapter 11, to see what you have in store for us next!

Before I close, though, I have to say that that bit at the end with Trixie (which I totally did not see coming!) was really very, very intriguing. I wonder just what crime that she could have committed to get her stuck in a cell on the black level in the dungeons?

I guess that we'll find out sooner or later, huh?

Whoa, Trixie? Damn, can't wait to see what she did to get landed in the black level!

Here's to hoping Celestia especially will come to grips with all that's been going on lately. Just because the Saviors of Equestria are now demons and devils, does not mean they have changed so much as to forget what exactly they represent. Dash is an easy one to notice; even as a demon, she still represents loyalty. Rarity still represents Generosity. The others haven't had enough screen time yet, but I'm assuming that their core representations are still there. I also feel that Celestia's rage at the Nobles will also cause her to "fall" even faster.

And that bit with Rarity and Twilight... I'm assuming that being the Archdevil of Power is kind of the leader of the rest of the devils, since Rarity doesn't really seem to be Twilight's "plaything", and yet still calls her Mistress. I really like the idea of Twilight making sure that Rarity is still in control of herself. It seems like Twilight is one of the things that is still keeping the group together, preventing them from becoming as bad as other devils and demons in positions of power.

6341124 Thank you for the thoughts! :) What do you think of the Wonderbolts and Scootaloo so far?

' those who were gleeful in the performance of hideous crimes.'

'Crimes that even death seemed a pitiful balance to.'

"This is disgraceful! Trixie's shows are NOT that bad!"

6341427 The Wonderbolts I love, completely. Scootaloo, not so much, and that's only because she's never been one of my favorite characters-- nor very attractive, in my honest opinion. I know that she is grown and rather beautiful in this universe, but I still can't imagine her as anything but kind of stunted and rough-in-appearance filly.

Applebloom and Sweetie, on the other hand, I can imagine them as the grown mares you've portrait them as. I'm not sure why Scootaloo is so different for me.

Still, though, it does fit the story rather well, as all of her idols (Rainbow Dash, and to a lesser extent the Wonderbolts) all belong to Twilight now. And I really enjoyed the description of the Wonderbolt's "corruption", and their eagerness to protect their new Mistress from any perceived threat.

Oh, and I forgot Celestia's little talk with Dashie. That was a very juicy bit of exposition, and I'm hoping Celestia realizes that what happened to the Saviors of Equestria was probably the single best outcome she could have hoped for.

6342036 Hmmm, okay.

Thanks, hun.

Say, quick question here: have you and/or Cody ever considered using some of your less ... raunchy ... pictures (like the ones of Applejack and Apple Bloom, Rarity and Sweetie and Rainbow and Scoots; etc.) as illustrations for some for the chapters in the story? (Especially the one of AJ and AB on that scene of them in Chapter 6 that you did awhile back; that) would be beyond sweet!)

Just curious, is all.

It is being considered, yes. ^_^

6343384 Really? Wow, cool!

6343556

Two illustrations in the new format added to chapter 6. I'd appreciate feedback from anyone who has interest in these things continuing through other chapters and such.

6352249 Cool! I shall go check them out forthwith!
(Oh, you don't know just how bad that I so had the urge to stick a classic Snagglepuss line in there for a sec.)

And you know that I do.

So c'mon, people! Give our favorite Fel Equestria artist and co-author some good feedback!

Save Trixi pweasssseee.... even when she was being a meanie pants she should not be in that hell... for just dollars a day you to can save this Mare

Hmm, Finally I got the time to get back to this. I do say, I am quite pleased with this. Your writing is still as good as before, I loved the little developement parts that scattered and follow the different individuals.. I am curious what Flutters does. And Luna, but I hope you will write the next chapter soon and that i will learn a bit of what I desire to know about them. Again, great, stroy driven clopstory, which I could not write better myself... Cause I cannot write jackshit.

You have to wonder now, how did Dashie even become Twilight's pet? I can't imagine a headstrong pony like her giving up too easily. Unless it was a really dire situation like with the huge wound Twilight just got.

um, ok, more please, want to see where this goes. Cant wait to see what happens with Luna and Celestia. Mistress Twilight FTW

*turns on British voice* NEXT CHAPTER SR.PLZ AND THANK YA

It does make some sense though, since the Nobles are teaching that Uni's are top of the heap. Magic would be their new 'goddess' the Nobles just put a rather nasty gag order on the nascent deity in question. Better magic be unfettered and therefore fully exploitable, then be under the tacit oversight and criticism of said deity. Regardless, their magic is their spiritual focus.

This is the first time I've rooted for "evil twilight" taking over Equestria and hoping she stays in power.

I do have some question's though.
Will we be seeing what Fluttershy and Pinkie pie are doing. It's chapter 10 and we haven't heard from them after the brief "hello meet the characters" I know we see a yellow pegasus* leading the, what best can be described as shock troops, a round the city. We don't even have a peep from Pinkie.

*Wasn't Flutters a bat pony larger than the others? Does this mean she shape shifts? or is this another pony?

The licking Twilight did to clean and heal the wounds of the Wonderbolts. Sounds a lot like something an animal would do. (or something this Fluttershy would do) This goes as well for Rarity's "Gaze" it sounds like "The Stare"

as for the "taking the city in a day" and the blood bath. I figured you where just basing it on the Iraqi war. Up front victories but a long protracted occupation. Hopefully this story wont end like that.

Shhhh, whatever you do, don't let Cody know I told you!

Fluttershy is actually getting her own interlude story. It is at 3700 words and not half done yet.
She is a demon, which means she has access to demonic glamours. She can look like whatever she wishes pretty much.

Twilight's healing abilities are limited, but amongst her 'property' she can do small but valuable things even with ancient wounds.

Rarity's Gaze is not a version of the Stare. It's much much creepier than that, and its use has some real bad potential consequences that will be explained later.

They planned the immediate conquest of Canterlot as one of Twi's many many contingencies. And while it didn't go exactly without a hitch, they have been largely successful to this point. Heh... heheheheheh... heh heh ha ha Muahahahahahaaaaaa!

K thx bye :D

Oh and since I'm getting all verbose I might as well answer the next wacky question to be asked..

Chapter 11 is at 7k words, but not quite done yet. Unfortunately events are about to get really granular all during the same time period. So I'd be expecting the next few chapters to all be taking place in the same day anna half instead of linear progression. Really it's being a nightmare figuring out how to present this is a coherent easy-to-follow way which is one reason it's taking so long.

I read every chapter so far (aside from the clop, which I skipped by scrolling down as fast as I could.) and I have to ask: Are the other chapters going to have pictures put into them? (I would like it if they did)
