"Success is going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm." -Winston Churchill

T

While knocking back some drinks at his favourite club, Thunderhoof, an Equestrian Army veteran turned Private Investigator, sees a graceful cellist on the scene: Octavia. He instantly falls prey to her grace. He is about to discover that Octavia is hiding dark secrets, and she is about to discover that Thundehoof is trying to hide some equally dark, if not darker secrets.

One day, Thunderhoof is hired by an extremely important mare, and gets involved in a conspiracy that goes above and beyond everything that he'd ever imagined.

Thanks once again to my friend Antiquarian, whose story inspired mine, and also its proofreader.

If Thunderhoof was voiced, what would he sound like?

Well, I would give you a precise actor, but truth be told, there isn't one. So I'd say the best direction I could give you is Cillian Murphy's voice as Tommy Shelby in peaky blinders (he actually inspired Thunderhoof to an extent), but with a more posh accent.

Alternatively, you can go with Major Zero in Metal Gear Solid 3, but with a deeper voice.

Why do you ask?

I narrate the voices of the characters in my head when I read a story. What about the rest of the OCs?

Why did Antiquarian stop proofreading so soon?

Antiquarian stopped proofreading the story for reasons that I am not at liberty to disclose.

Pegarescue was a great reference. Those pararescue guys are some crazy sons of guns.

The thick plottens...

The board is set. The pieces are in play. Now for the final act.
