Imagine Nancy Drew with a thermonuclear capacity and you've pretty much got the idea.

I'm caught up but I have work this morning so real quick— The SNL bit was inspired and I thought it was really cute how Peter said that Johnny'd be mad for not coming up earlier, but Johnny had already brought Pete up twice in his interview.
Also, this chapter is empty
10354247
Whoops, hit publish well before I meant to, but it should be ready to roll tonight.
10354247
And by "tonight" I meant three days later, but we're live is the point!
10358958
Yay!
Heh, Squirm Notice. I understood that reference.
I mean, the real Manhattan is a mundane Ankh-Morpork, Celestia know what this one has going on at once...
I hadn't thought about how organizing airspace would work in a city, I wonder if they have signs...
Also, strategy win.
Being rich is truly the greatest power of all. And more strategy wins for Johhny, he's doing really well!
I'm not a New Yorker, but I'm surprised they weren't installed with cockroaches, rats, and the slightly oily sensation of death already permeating them.
The Enforcers! They get a surprising amount of attention for such unnoteworthy villains.
Epicness requires effort.
I'm just reliseing that Status Quo is one of those ironic names.
"Spider-Man! Your in my line of sight, what did you do!"
Nice save Pete. I'm not a huge fan of the angle, (My favorite is still the Lee/Ditko run and JJJ explicitly didn't have redeaming features or a fondness for Parker) but its a valid angle and I'm sure it'll be fun.
It probably wasn't a joke, but I love how casual super heroes are about breaking and entering.
Someone likes his jokes. Its a trap!
How did you make unique charators?
There are mysterious realms even the bravest explorers do not tred.
Heh, Being Pete's roommate means the Parker luck is rubbing off on him.
Why? Sure, they aren't vigilanties, but they could get permission to poke around easily enough. Or ask their vigilante buddies to do that, Spidey's powers aren't related to his mark... Johnny might have trouble.
Aw, shipping.
I could listen to Rarity dunk on people all day, I almost wish she were Spider-Pony.
Phrasing.
10360263
This is an imaginary story. Aren't they all?
Maybe some markers on buildings to indicate levels, but the idea is there's two for civilians, the maximum the city considers it safe for you to fly, and a third above those for emergency service workers. The heroes cut through it all the time, which ticks Spitfire off.
Johnny's a prankster who has to be careful he doesn't burn anyone to death. He's not good at long term planning, but I imagine that combo would make him a pretty good improviser.
I've been to New York a time or two and other than being insanely warm, the subway's actually fine. Also it's Equestria, so they probably keep it cartoonishly clean.
They'd probably be more noteworthy if they didn't live in a world full of superheroes.
Huh. Suppose so. Just picked it because, y'know, pony who's job is to comment on things.
Jameson contains multitudes, so I feel any take can be considered valid to the point that you don't actually need a reason he hates Spider-Man. They can all be active at once.
With the added bonus that they'll still do it if they know you, but they'll feel bad about it!
Skrull language is copy pasted from this. Anything else like musical notes or that Venus symbol is just copy pasted from Google depending on if I need.
Actually, y'know in Waid and Weringo's run where he screws up and accidentally sets Ben on a rampage after an innocent joke shop, or when he and Spidey are fighting Hydro-Man and he gets knocked into the kiddie pool with no pants? It's more like that.
Shining's just trying to look out for his little sister. Just because she has royal permission to throw herself at ancient evils doesn't mean he has to like it.
Also, considering the boys are both radioactive and their powers are sort of tied to their marks (it's where Peter got bitten and the FF all have weird rings around there's from the rays) it might not be to the benefit of Starlight or them if she tried that trick.
Well Spidey is now associated with the multiverse for better and worse, so it's not like someone can't just whip up a fic where she is. Maybe as Noir, or rocking Jessica Drew's costume.
Stay tuned!
Because Johnny is hard to bait. "Oh, a brand-new sports car presented by a swimsuit model at a party hosted by my fanclub at this exclusive nightclub that nobody is allowed to know about! I can't wait!"
I really liked-- I think it was Warren Ellis, it might have been Bendis-- the Ultimate Fantastic Four when Johnny mentions that he's good with people and has a really good memory, he's just not smart compared to Sue, Reed and his dad.
.
Always a fan of positive Angel representation.
I mean, 'appreciates' vs 'understands...' Though Twilight would never use magic to take the easy way out, either. The convoluted, maybe.
"I'm just happy you didn't jump to Rarity first. "
And a good example of emotional support. Though I'm not sure if countershock is the right word?
I would say that's cliche, but there isn't a lot of variety for a Disco theme.
Anyway, either Johhny is bumbling into a totally different evil plan multiple times by accident, or Lyja is just trying to seduce him nemesis-style.
I love Overdrive, I'm getting really tired of Nick Spencer pointlessly dark BS.
"And I'm right here too! And I actually have a car!?"
And Man-Thing! But with a name that's not dumb!
10406727
"What? I'm cool and everypony likes me! It could happen!"
That's a good take on him, yeah. My favourite genre character archetype is someone who can do all this amazing stuff but struggles with all the everyday things outside of that speciality, which makes Johnny (and the rest of the cast, honestly) a good fit for this kind of story.
I mean this is a story with Johnny Storm in it so it's not like there isn't plenty of precedent for Jerks Who Actually Do Care.
That is because there was supposed to be a space between those two words. Fixed!
Stay tuned.
Haven't been keeping up, but does anyone really give a wet fart who Kindred is?
Didn't quite feel it as an Equestrification but it was hard to come up with much else and it can just be a random description Zecora's calling him.
10407872
I love that both 'bumbling into multiple evil plans accidentally' is just as likely as the seduction plan.
I don't care about kindred, and I'm getting tired if the dark supernatural direction the book is insiting on. I miss Dan Slott and Chip Zdarsky.
10408131
Zdarsky's run being as short as it was still makes me sad.
10408177
Life Story was also really good, especially when it started.
I'm at work but the but where Ock decides to just steal the place from Arcade and charge rent to the other villains was great. That's another concept that could hold a whole series.
10508169
They don't call him the Master Planner for nothing!
10407872
Turns out Kindred is Harry Osborn, back from the dead. Even though he's already back from the dead... apparently it's going to have something to do with spidey's deal with mephisto, as Doctor strange actually suspects that it occurred by the end of the last issue. But this has been getting a lot of attention over the past year or two so I think something involving him is going to happen next year or maybe the year after.
10509477
Huh. Didn't know Harry was dead again to begin with.
10509772
That's what's bugging me because I don't think he is. I think it might be connected to how Harry Osborne got resurrected by brand new day.
10509835
Ah, right. I'm sure they'll hastily go "back to basics" after they explain whatever's going on, so.
He's come a long way.

The sequence of Johhny saving the rec center was inspired.
I can't even, I love it.
Rarity embodies lady-like dignity.
Spike, you have unleashed Doom.
And Rarity has released Other Doom.
Waiting for everyone to find out it was Aunt May's ring he got resized, or something.
Alway just big enough for passage and whatever secret base whomever needs. And also conveniently well-lit!
Bromance before Romance.
Spellectro still has the dumb starburst mask.
It's always Arcade.
And like I said, the villians-arguing-over-rent bit was absolutely perfect.
10515576
That would be in character! Will try to have what Pete's actually doing with a ring up before Christmas.
That dumb mask is the best thing about Electro and I will fight anyone who says otherwise.
Thanks! Always toyed with the idea of giving the boys a pair of anti-roommates but could never come up with a combo that'd fit, and also everyone should be trapped in Murderworld at least once so stitching the two concepts together gave them something to do while the Elemnts had an actual plot. That happens a lot with these.
Oh, Rarity has finally gone Supervillian. Was it over clothin' or boys? I got a bettin' pool goin.'
Discord, don't just play the footage backwards, that's just lazy. Animate something new.
That would actually be a really great story for her.
and THANK YOU for not brushing Spike's feeling under the rug! They aren't plot--relevant, but they are important.
And Sherrif Applejack is out to lay down the law!
YES. That is exactly what I want from Spider-Man.
“
"I'm slated for my second movie appearance and I've headlined two of my own comics. You're the answer to a trivia question at best."
"You sold your character development to Mephisto."
"We don't talk about that."
In Ponyville, a pink head was lowered as another sweet was lost to this cruel, uncaring world. She forgave the circumstances, merely regretting the necessity.
Also, yeah I hadn't thought about it but compared to the Joker or someone, Arcade is tacky.
Johnny has been on the other end of that enough times to invoke it.
Applejack is Batman. YES.
10573760
Hey, flash animation is expensive.
...huh. It was a throwaway line but now you mention it, yeah. And they never say what she's doing these days in The Last Problem.
He'll get his say next chapter (which miiiiight be put together some time this month since I've got more free time coming up than I thought I would) but I also don't think he'd know how to feel any more than Twi does.
...veiled threats?
My head voice for Otto is Maurice LaMarche, so you need to know how funny it was to imagine him reading those lines.
Hahaha, beta reader said that too! Was not intentional but I'm glad her being kickass worked out.
stylish terror, that's terrific.
10627524
?
10627816
It's one of the descriptions when Rarity is running away from Applejack
10628299
Oh! Thanks!
In Gotham, you can fit one of these in a single abandoned warehouse!
Yeah, that's about right. Between him, Venom, and Gobby I don't know whose fixation is creepier...
"Are you going to say bug? Is it going to be bug? Because nopony's called me that before, that's so new, bug is a great new insult good job honey."
Classic Spidey! He really excels at controlling a room.
So that's not just a Pinkie Pie thing?
Crusher is a great villain. "You wanna go for a ride?"
I love Spider-Man so much.
There is a lot of back-and-forth across this fight, it stays engaging for the whole chapter.
Rainbow, I love you but you can't complain about forgetful idiots.
When Johhny (somehow) gets married and you end up best man, you're not going to be much better.
She just turned an expensive glass of wine into water, she can afford it.
...Probably Lyja?
10667472
It's real.

(Context: that's Deadpool, cursed by Loki to have Tom Cruz's face and dressed in the remains of a costume shop when his classic suit got blown up)
Otto's probably the most stable of the three, ironically. Like, if he found out who Peter was he'd probably just blow up his apartment instead of anything as insane as Norman's pulled over the years.
Pfft. Heard it in Josh Keaton's voice.
Guess not? They've gotta be stashing their money somewhere. (Also got tired of writing about her "wing pocket")
Thank you, it took forever.
Incidentally, this came up last season but I always thought it'd be neat/hilarious if Dash actually had a Detritus thing going on. Her brain actually operates way better when she's going at high speeds and that's one reason she's so twitchy and over-reactionary with non-adventure stuff.
Well exCUSE him for being considerate(!)
Probably.
Your narration has a really casually charming way about it that's not super common. I really like it.
Also like making Harry a goat instead of another pony.
Wow, she's speaking of her own volition at a level another person can hear.
I actually thought about asking if I could write a story about Fluttershy on that Wakandian trip, but I never got a better idea than Shy and T'Challa agreeing that, while they're interested in each other, neither one would ever give up the lives they have to move somewhere else. And something about Fluttershy using her talent for animals to tame the Panther God. And maybe T'challa punches Discord in the face.
NOT A FUTURE VILLIAN NOT A FUTURE VILLIAN SUPER TRUSTWORTHY
It kinda sucks, he's in that same spot all adaptations of Norman Osborn has to deal with. The most interesting thing about him is that he turns evil so the build-up to his evil-ness has a huge shadow over it. It's not as bad as Sinsestro, who has to be the best cop ever despite looking like Satan.
Poor Harry. I wish he could catch a break somewhere.
The Elements of Harmony have a "detect evil" setting. I dig it.
“Yeah,” Harry agreed, “hay sometimes after a hoofshake things feel…perkier!”
That's probably also significant.
I wonder which of those two has thrown the other under the bus more— Nah, it's Johnny.
One, that metaphor at the end is amazing and you should feel proud.
Two, it's always dangerous to get between Rainbow and her Senpai.
“You’re hosting it,” she hissed, eyes silently shrieking as they drilled into his to uncover his secrets.
He probably also doesn't want Rainbow to call her a copy-cat. I know she's not, but Rainbow would do something with it.
On-off switches are so simple that every genius thinks about putting one in first and then gets distracted by the weirder challenges of building a robot and then just assumes they did it.
You are on fire today.
Johnny's rare bursts of subtly are all the more powerful through their unexpectedness.
pbs.twimg.com/media/EBFoSaQWsAEGxIv.jpg
Though I have to complain about him swinging "off-screen" because there aren't screens in books. Pet peeve.
Spike the Ever-Avarice! Good for him though.
I'm actually a huge fan of Triptych where, because Fluttershys' reaction to everything is some flavor of nervousness, is actually hard to read and she wins every game. And Rainbow loses almost immediately because the idea of not bragging about something is a concept her brain rejected years ago.
10737765
Glad you liked this cause I'm officially back at work so next chapter's gonna be a while!
Wow. Thank you so much. If you want something similar but way better, try Edgar Cantero's books Meddling Kids and This Body's Not Big Enough for the Both of Us.
Fun headcanon fact: Norman based his Goblin identity off legends of Grokar. He did not pretend to be Grokar himself because a) Celestia would probably spot a fake if they ever met, and b) the father of all monsters might turn out to be real and come looking for him.
Dude, go for it. Nobody said it had to be romantic.
Hahaha. Creates a zone of pure silence so Discord can't snap his fingers or something.
Fair, but also here's Norman's first appearance before we knew he was the Goblin.

Nice guy!
Convoluted as it is, one of the things I like about the comic version of Negative is that "Martin Li" technically isn't real, just an alternate personality he projects, so the Elements are picking up on that. Not EVIL exactly, just...weird.
It is absolutely Johnny.
This isn't a book. Checkmate!
Pffft.
Johnny might have trouble finding a place he didn't take a girl to.
(tantalisingly needs a z) And I wouldn't worry about getting an endorsement from a main character; they'd just turn out to be mind controlled or, if they're Peter, replaced by a clone.
BTW did you here that Ben Reilly is going to be the main Spider-Man in a few months?
Sorry Johhny, Sky Rider is trademarked.
Johhny's learning to pick up on that stuff pretty quickly.
Everything about how Manehattan's magic and personality interact is really interesting.
Hm, I wonder if those mooks want to loot and/or pillage?
There's way too much to copy/paste here, but I really enjoyed Rainbow's angst monologue.
Oh, I do not envy Misty.
He's just happy he's not called the Skocker.
Spidey might actually enjoy fighting the Riddler.
"That's Trademarked!
Props to Johnny for setting a good trap!
And congrats on your vaccine shot!
10878307
I hate this pedantic language so much
I did! The Beyond Corporation concept and writers line up makes me wanna check it out, along with Al Ewing doing Venom. (And I couldn't care less about Venom. It's weird being actively interested in a thing he's doing)
Thank you!
Not gonna lie, curious/slightly worried how he's gonna come off in this episode.
I'm not NOT saying that's set up for something else...
Hardest part of writing her whole scene was finding a good soundtrack to go with it, but I think this is a good fight scene number/something Dash would headbang to.
She and Colleen'll be at the party but I keep meaning to come up with an episode for them to have alone with the Elements.
i.redd.it/ugrc8tvudrjx.jpg
There's an issue of Untold Tales where he kinda does with the Wizard.
Oh man, can't find it now but around the time of the Maredowell episode there was a youtube video that edited those parts with Dash and the catchphrase in with "Hey, that's my shtick!" from the Lizard episode of Spectacular.
Well, we've yet to see it works.
I'm guessing it's DE’LILAH.
Three possibilities. One she's not Lyja, two she went into this attempt, hopping to get arrested or confronted at some point. Three, her mental state has been slowly decaying all these years spent on earth.
10879921
Maybe.
10880285
Any chance DE’LILAH's also Johnny's date?
10880751

10883736
Sorry?
Umm.
10883853
Oh, all good. Meant that more as "Heh heh heh, how EVIL that would be of me". Didn't mean to come across like I was chastising you or something.
\
Twilight, your castle is three times the size of the apartment complex before you take into consideration that it's bigger on the inside.
Wouldn't have expected Johnny to have plants at all, feels like he'd forget about them.
That's more like it.
And he's considerate!
I hope Asgardian heavy metal is a thing.
Also probably not intentional but I like the not to AJ's mysterious past as maybe being a country pop-star
The thing that separates him and Rainbow is that he sinks effort into his own ego
Twilight is having a lot of flashbacks, I wonder if she's doing okay...
Always nice to see regular folks pulling their weight.
I. really. Want to see Goblin getting crank-called by the mane six. Like that bit from Star Trek.
Yeah, I feel like letting the kid know about dangerous super-villian devices is important.
That's cute, but I refuse to believe Twilight any better than Peter at that kind of stuff.
11018910
Fun fact! The guys living in a ridiculous penthouse sized living room is actually a nod to the fact most early sitcom sets had to be built waaaaay larger than actual apartments in order to allow casts and cameras to move around freely, which is also why the six spend most of this time cleaning up their random crap: set designers would strategically cram furniture and the like in to fill up the space.
Not super intentional no, but we at least know she does play guitar.
A) Twilight spirals into crippling guilt in seconds and there's a lot of memories in here for her to brood over, so.
B) While designing Peter and Johnny's rooms was fun (how'd those do, btw?) a lot of the chapter was describing...well, their rooms, so. Matt's position also needed clarifying or else Peter treating him like an unexploded bomb would be weird.
Keeper was just going to be a gag where the old lady running the ticket counter pulls of a wig and turns out to be a grizzled badass, but making her one of Ben's old air force buddies explains how Johnny set this ambush up, which needed clarifying, so. Similarly Lyja only starts sinking the ferry to explain why Johnny's the only one chasing her. Keeper might show up again if I need an authority figure who isn't Shining, we'll see.
If you write it I'll read it.
What's this? Twilight Sparkle being an emotional coward when she could just fix everything with an awkward but important conversation? Is it a day ending in Y already?
Their psychic boyfriend-girlfriend scale. On her own Twilight will neglect personal hygiene until even she can smell herself, in the presence of Peter's own negligence her Keep Up Appearances meter rises.
Was this meant to be innuendo? Because it's pretty common and basic, especially for Rarity.
Reference to Zesty Gourmand?
Also having the Main Six cowering in silent fear from a voice on the other end of the radio, was a perfect way to introduce Goblin. I also really liked that touch with him asking for Harry. Very humanizing.
Seriously, was Rarity always this obvious in your stories?
11024356
No, that's Rarity using a cute way to describe her merciless teasing of Twilight and Spike, the randy little sod, making an association with her word choice.
Nope. Cheap brand of soda I made up for Peter to drink and be judged for drinking, which in turn is not based on any specific brand of real world soda. Similarly, "Crown Cola" is not Coke.
I wouldn't say "cowering in fear" as much as freezing up from understandable shock, but thank you.
A) Tabitha St. Germain humming The Stripper in Rarity voice would be hilarious.
B) As the pony herself says in chapter 4, scene 16:
That's new. And kind of completely negates the effort he went through to exposing her, but whatever. At least the Shapeshifters are on their way out.
Ah, ha! Green Lantern fight scene, my arch enemy, we meet again.
Here it comes!
Or not.
But honestly, while he could be a interesting character to explore at some point, I'm strangely relived that Discord's only showed up as a background element, given all the issues I have with him.
Done right it could make me like him again. Done poorly it could turn me off the whole story. So thank you for leaving him out at the moment!
It would seem that something new has arrived.
Huh. I've heard about this story.
Oh interesting. Tell me more.
I mean if anything did, it be money. That and Influential Unicorn Stallions.
Now you've got me curious. What are their favorites? Hmm. Something to think about I suppose.
This is a great moment here. Love him chatting with Spike. Can't wait to see more of him.
I love how he is proberbly the most dangerous person in that room, yet he is just supper chill. The comradery he has with Rainbow Dash is nice. That little moment he has with Rarity, where she is thanking him for saving Sweetie Belle is super sweet too.
Huh. I remember now that they where kind of stiff towards each other. Just can't remember why.
If that's her alias's real name, I may just have to laugh.
Looking into Lyja's thoughts is always interesting. They are selfish and petty, but pragmatic and realistic at the same time, if that makes any sense.
Hopefully this is the end of the rut they are both trapped in. I guess we'll just have to see what happens next issue.
11024425
Still seems a bit of a basic word choice for her. Oh well.
Maybe not "cowering", but definitely frozen from fear, And I say this as much as a compliment of the characters as of you. We've seen that at least Rainbow Dash is sufficiently bad-ass in this world, so anything that scares her has got to be downright terrifying.
11024895
Johnny didn't know Lyja showed up differently under thermal vision until just now.
A very, very loose Roomie-verse adaption of Matt's emotional state during Mark Waid's 2011-2014 Daredevil run following Matt's exposure.
Search me. Dunno what Fluttershy or Rarity's are either. The point's more that on the one hand it's odd Matt showed up with that knowledge, on the other, nice gesture/smooth move on his part.
Thanks. Matt's probably only gonna majorly figure for this particular story but he will be around and without spoiling anything Peter's feelings on his predicament will be part of the series over all.
Thanks again! I don't especially like Logan so I'm trying to play fair by him. And for a guff loner he's always the X-Man up for a night out and he's great with kids, so there's a plenty of basis for the Elements to get on with him.
Did you check Jean's entry in the glossary? That's the only place I remember bringing it up before now.
Absolutely. Selfish people justify their behaviour as pragmatism all the time.
Shock.
I don't know what "sufficiently bad-ass" means and Dash isn't in the box scene.
11025935
Suit yourself. I wish there was more of him, to be honest.
It's a great portrayal, and he is already turning out to be a interesting character.
Yeah, I took a deep dive into it when starting out, but it's been a while since then.
I see shock as being like when something happens, and you literally can't process it.
Twilight is very much aware of her surroundings here, and she knows that (in spite of her reassurances) it's best not to give Norman too much information to go on.
Not all fear manifests itself as mindless panic. Sometimes it can be quite rational, in the proper context. It all depends on how close your perception of reality matches reality itself.
Basically you've showcased her talents, and how they are exceptional; both in terms of sheer speed, and as a fighting force.
Rainbow Dash in the show rarely got to fight, and the way she came off tended to reduce her abilities, rather than highlight them.
Now that I think about it, I guess she showed up when Peter did and he arrived after that scene happened. For some reason, I thought she showed up at the apartment earlier.
Wouldn't it make more sense to say "caught with your tail up"? Especially given that equines swish their tail when surprised, and doing so makes them more exposed? I know, I'm being very particular here.
I do love Lyja's explanation and dialogue though. It makes perfect sense, and was even lined up with her established motivations, a rare event for this kind of story. Also, this final conversation was great, the perfect amount of unresolved baggage, mundane answers, and sheer awkwardness.
If this is meant to be a conclusion to the Lyja and Johnny arc, it's going excellently so far.
11094371
The point was he caught her off guard, which was apparent so I don't care.
Thanks! And if we're talking about the same kind of story then yeah, part of making this at all was I wanted something that wasn't like the kinds of Marvel crossovers you tend to get out of this fandom.
Edit: gah, missed this in a rush. Not the end exactly but certainly moving into a new phase.
So kind of a simple continuation for this one and not much has changed.
It will be interesting to see what the new characters are all about.
Specifically what Trixie's history is in this universe.
Lemme tell ya, after the last few weeks I need good comic content.
Aw, I love how impressed Spike is by the heroes. Even after living with Twilight Sparkle all this time he's still willing to believe some of them know what they're doing.
Sentinels are called Shepards? I like that, very creepy.
I feel bad for her but it's hilarious that she actually thinks committing crimes just doesn't count.
Is Trixie a mutant? Is Trixie an AVENGER?

I feel that.
Yep, and thanks!
"I feel bad for (character) but it's hilarious" is my chief writing goal, so thank you.
No, Trixie is Trixie.
(I'm having so much fun writing her, holy shit)
