Amber Song is no ordinary earth pony. Why? Well, because she is actually a robot. A robot with artificial intelligence, complete with (somewhat limited) emotions. These are entries from her diary. A document she kept to detail her struggles with understanding emotions, both her own and those of other ponies. It is her hope that this diary will show her progress in her quest to be more like organic ponies.

Please continue this story. It's a great looking concept.
2350327 Aww, thank you.
To be honest I'm not quite sure where to go with this next, I do have one Idea, but it's content would be a bit more mature and require a change in rating. I don't even know if I can do that. I'm open to suggestions on situations I can put Amber in.
2352792
well its a cliche but how bout there be some prejudice in the future? and also the heart jerker moral filled works to. just throwing stuff out there.
2353031 Ah, prejudice, yes, I can work with that. It ties in with another idea I had. Thanks for that. I'm not sure I understand your second suggestion though, could you explain more please?
2353249
Kinda what toy did here. Have amber learn lessons of life emotion and the sort and have it be a real tear jerker. Of course you can't really do both unless you do a I robot.... That may work.
2353384 hmm, like somepony might fall in love with Amber and she accidently breaks their heart and then has to live with regret after realising it? That kind of thing? Cause I could that, even though I prefer happy endings.
2353493
Nah more of a I'm a robot and someone found out now they are amassing a small army of robo-racists to kill me thing kinda like the movie I robot. Also we are battering back and forth so let's like pull up a chat or something
2353530 Ah I see, however her being a robot was never intended to be a secret. However I can see some potential in this idea. Also, I know this will sound lame but, I've never used irc before, it will take me a little while to figure it out.
2353768
Well I was hopping you knew how to use it...
But are you pranking me?
2353805 No, not at all. I will try to learn thiss whole IRC thing soon.
2353864
Right back at Cha' I gtg to sleep now but I'm up for helping out with this if you want I could proof too. See ya.
2353895 Okay, hmm, would be nice to have someone independent to proof read. See ya later then
Ha ha ha, Noonday Song and Julienne Carrot. Love the reference. That's pretty awesome.
If, at some point, Dr. Song decides to make a sister for Amber, he'd probably be well advised not to name her something like Lorie or Lorena or Lorelei or anything along those lines. Probably nothing good would come of it. *nods sagely*
2377515 YES! someone got my references.
I knew Noonday was pretty obvious, I wasn't sure anyone would get Julienne though.
I doubt Dr. Song will ever make a sister for Amber, but maybe Amber can make her own sister and call it Lal.
Wow, those ponies were pretty harsh.
This kind of makes me wonder where Pinkie Pie is, and why she hasn't yet already ambushed Amber with her typical big "Welcome to Ponyville" thing, like she did with Cranky and with Twilight herself the instant they first showed up in Ponyville. Something like that could possibly ease the tensions and help Amber and the Ponyville residents become more acclimated to one another.
2470203 Yes, I considered having Pinkie Pie show up, but I thought as Amber never actually entered Ponyville (cause she's always been there) that her Pinkie Sense™ wouldn't have told her about it. The next chapter will have Pinkie and all the others.
Honestly, of all the mane 6, I'd say that Fluttershy would probably be the best, or at least the easiest, choice for Amber to just hang around with on a day-to-day basis, at least at first anyway, until she has more skill at socializing with the more extroverted ponies. Fluttershy's the least threatening by far and, to be frank, she isn't all that much better at socializing either. It'd probably do them both some good.
2505155 That's actually a very good point, I may have Fluttershy turn up to Rarity's while Amber is there and see how they get along. Thanks for that.
good concept, decent execution. ill follow this story
this story deserves more views, i read the whole thing before anyone commented.
either this story is too small or it is not as popular as it deserves
2575685 Aww, thanks.
I too wonder why it doesn't get more views, I didn't think many people would like it, but I thought more would give it a look. Oh well, win some, lose some.
Another good addition to the story. I think you had Rarity and Fluttershy pretty spot on here, and it's nice to see Amber starting to open up a bit more as well. I agree with tiberius. It's a shame this doesn't have more views.
2669497 Thank you so much, I'll have another chapter up soon, hope you like it.
After the beginning bit, I was half expecting this to turn into a cooking lesson from Pinkie Pie or Applejack, but then Rainbow Dash had to show up and make everything more awesome, as usual.
The bit with Pinkie getting out of breath because nobody was around to stop her from rambling was quite funny, too.
3070116 Thanks so much! Yeah I wanted to do a bit more of a cooking lesson scene with Julienne but I know practically nothing about cooking so I can't really write about it.
After Amber started to talk more naturaly I tend to forget that she actualy is a robot, not that this is bad or something it just shows her progress.
Since there is no dark thag I guess there wont be such a thing like a anti-robot union or something like that?
Anyway I am really enjoying your work thank you for making it
3823153 Aww, thank you.
I know I've been a bit slack in updating this story, I do have another chapter done it just needs editing and polishing.
And another loveable chapter of the live of Amber Song
.
Keep the good work up
3862690 Thank you so much.
So Amber gets a cape and then almost immediately performs an act of (super) heroism.
Hopefully word will get around now and the other ponies will stop avoiding her so much.
I wouldn't worry much about the update frequency. It's fanfic, after all, and the only deadlines for that are self-imposed ones. Take me, for instance, I haven't updated ST:P in about as long, though it likely won't be until mid-2014 or so at the earliest before I'll have a chance to get back to it. Granted, I have a legit excuse (this time) I guess, but still... even when I didn't have an excuse, I still tended to take forever anyway.

You know I didn't even notice the whole cape/superhero thing, and I wrote the thing! Well now I feel like an idiot. The reason is I spent a while trying to come up with an act only she could perform, but seeing as she is only slightly superior to an organic Earth Pony it had to be something to do with her structure. Basically I spent so long trying to make sure her act of heroism was too superequine that I didn't even think of it as an act of heroism. Does that make sense? Oh well.
I enjoyed reading this; i hope it gets continued someday.
8187859 Yeah, I kind of dropped this one a while ago. I may continue it but only after rewriting what's already there. It needs a lot of work.
8188077
Please do, I'd love to see more.
Escorting
Bacon.

To be honest, it doesn't need all that much work, it merely has a few typos. If you see something I do not, go right ahead and work on them, it's your story after all.
