Again, Poor Flutters and Endy!
Hope to see more chapters later on!
...And can I rant? I kinda wished all of the Mane 6 to be in the Harem!
...And that's it! Hope your safe and at Home!
The Shetland arc feels inspired by the chase.
Late joiner to the fic but enjoying it.

I can neither confirm nor deny.

There's bits and pieces that are inspired, but of course there's plenty of differences as well. I'll straight up admit that I loved reading The Chase. Of course I'm also a huge fan of Fallout Equestria and several of the unofficial sequals to it. Also, if you dig a little you're likely to see a coupld of references to non-pony stories in there as well. This includes the Dresden Files.

There are quite a few references to things that made me smile. But the shadow wolves the similar Laird name. At least pinkie didn't piss on him like a certain pagasus did.

Note taken, and I can understand the feeling. This was something that L0rd0f7hund3r and I had discussed fairly early on. When it came down to it we were modeling a good deal of this story after the anime, and manga, of Louie the Rune Soldier. Which of course is incredible. That said, we knew that there was going to be at least a small herd for Endymion because of the interest of Twilight and Pinkie Pie.
We quickly discounted Rainbow Dash and Applejack because of their counterparts in the anime. Rainbow here is still loyal to a fault, but she does have some of Meril's personality. Endymion certainly has some of Louie's personality, although I think that Endymion is a bit more mature than Louie acted. That said, while Meril and Louie made great friends, they would make terrible lovers. Meril is more concerned about getting rich, and doing everything she can toward that end. Rainbow, in this story, is much the same. Her lust for gold would certainly be as strong, if not stronger, than a romantic relationship with Endymion. Essentually he would be taking a back seat to treasure. Not to mention he'd have to watch her like a hawk anytime they visited Luna in Canterlot.
For Applejack... We played around with the idea, and while they would work together we found it better to introduce Charm. Somepony that's just as hard of a worker as AJ, in a slightly different way, that would find her to be the single most beautiful mare in the world. We wanted to give her a lover that would be able to stand up to her, stand beside her, and at the same time able to distance himself from large groups. Which was why Charm was perfect.
Rarity - For us it was a forgone conclusion that she was going to end up with Spike. I think that I speak for L0rd0f7hund3r as well as myself when I say that we both lean toward Sparity. That's not saying that I wouldn't see Spike ending up with anyther mare, maybe Scoots, Applebloom, or Sweetie, but honestly we had it in our head that he would get Rarity in the end.
Fluttershy: Okay, wow, where to begin. L0rd0f7hund3r early on really wanted to make sure that Endymion got together with Fluttershy. I was okay with it, and then we had the Stare being used which was for all intents and purposes rape. Let's not kid ourselves here. That's exactly what it was. There was several discussions about where to progress from there, and while we were still okay Fluttershy joining the Herd I suggested that we alter her relationship with Pinkie and Twilight. More so with Pinkie. We know that Pinkie Pie is the Alpha mare of the herd, so her word is law at least in their herd. I figured that Pinkie would agree with including Fluttershy, but mainly so that she could keep an eye on her, and so that she wouldn't allow her to be alone with Endymion anymore.
Next, we had to figure out why Fluttershy seemed to be okay with her decision. Neither of us wanted to go with the Narcisist route. We felt that Fluttershy was a kind, and caring, mare, but we needed something that would allow her to rationalize it. So, the idea was that since Endymion was a stallion it wasn't rape. At least in Fluttershy's head it wasn't. Having Rarity explain it to her, and then having her tell her that she needed to contact Sol was the clincher for it. For me personally, that was the true beginning of Fluttershy's redemption arch. That was the moment she was truly able to realize she had done wrong, and would actively be working toward repairing it.
So, that leaves us where we are. The last chapter was a fun one to write, and again I was inspired by a picture of all things, of Pinkie Pie in bondage gear. I have L0rd0f7hund3r to thank for pulling me back into the story, and I'm glad that we were able to create something fun. The next chapter will continue the arch, and we should see some action, as in swords and sourcery.

There's certain things that I just can't have Pinkie do. That's one of them, but of everything I can't have her do there are two that I'm fine with having her do, and that's Twilight and Endymion. Mosttimes together.
