Visions Journal

First published

Something to help me keep track of my apparently impressive imagination.

When I was young, I had an incredibly powerful imagination. But, as I grew older, my imagination started to ebb.

...until a few weeks ago, that is. All the cartoon characters I liked suddenly appeared in my room. As well as a few that I didn't like so much.

I intend to keep this journal as proof that I'm still sane.



(this is a character I made up, but based on true events. may contain some adult references. you have been warned)

Okay, so I decided to keep a journal of all the stuff I see. This isn’t a journal in the traditional sense, as...one sec.

Sorry, I had to break up a fight between a troll and a pony. Anyways, I have recently been seeing ponies, alternian trolls, one puffball and a weeping angel. Thankfully, that last one wasn’t here for long.

Don’t worry, I’m not crazy, or anything. I just have an extremely strong imagination that seemed to resurface a few days ago. You know how kids have imaginary friends? That’s kind of what I’m going through right now. There’s no way to make them go away, though. Unless they choose to do so of their own will.

Even as I’m typing, one of the ponies is cuddling up next to me. This particular pony has become quite fond of me, from what I can tell, and I’m torn over how I should feel about this. I mean, her feelings are obvious due to her blushing. I swear, I noticed her trying to sneak glances at me when she thinks I’m not looking.

...heh, she’s so cute when she blushes.

But that’s beside the point! I should be typing up all that happened today!

So, anyways, this evening, when I was playing a mystery video game with my mum, Twilight kept pointing out things to do. In all honesty, she was correct most of the time. The only thing she messed up with involved the use of earth technology. So that’s understandable.

Karkat and Pinkie got into a fight when he made fun of her cupcakes. I had to get Rainbow and Applejack to separate them, as I couldn’t really touch her. Pinkie and Karkat have had six fights in a third of the number of days. It’s starting to become a nuisance.

Pinkie was at work with me again today, though Fluttershy was there to keep her out of my hair. I’m truly grateful to have such a nice Pegasus to help keep things in line. Yes, she is really keeping them out of trouble. I don’t really know why...

I should really end this journal entry, since I really have nothing else to say. That, and Sweetie Belle, Nepeta, and Fluttershy want me to sing them a lullaby. I’m not a good singer, but they don’t really seem to mind.

...heh, Sweetie just called me “big brother”. That is just too cute. It’s not as cute as Fluttershy’s drowsy face, though, what with her half-closed eyes and small blush.

Today, I woke up and saw Fluttershy sleeping next to me. It was kind of awkward, but I tried to keep up my routine of watching MLP in the morning. Thankfully, Fluttershy didn’t wake up, so I got to watch it uninterrupted.

Pinkie came to work again today, and suggested that I try to sell more sweet food. I advised her to try some gelato, but she got her tongue stuck. It was pretty quiet after Nepeta and Fluttershy got her free.

On my walk home, Fluttershy stood a little too close to me. I thought she just wanted me to stroke her mane. She definitely enjoyed it, though, if her blushing meant anything.

Pinkie followed me around most of the day, asking what I was doing. Oddly enough, Twilight was there, too. I tried to explain to them that I was getting an exemption from jury service, but that only led to more questions. I couldn’t really talk that much to them, since my dad was literally right next to me.

When I got home, I decided to write a bit more of my crossover fanfic. I got to a part that involved the troll quadrants, and my mind leapt from that to Nepeta’s shipping wall. Of course, both Nepeta and Karkat were in the same room. After a long moment of silence, the two trolls left in opposite directions, and I got chewed out by Twilight for accidentally revealing Nepeta’s crush.

I couldn’t help but notice that she glanced at Fluttershy while she was lecturing me. When I asked them about it, Twilight said it was nothing, and Fluttershy just blushed and looked away. I really don’t know what that’s about...

Pinkie and Sweetie Belle are currently trying to find the little filly’s special talent. I have to say, they should probably stop before they get hurt.

There, problem solved. Now what do I do with the anvil...? And who gave them that idea, anyways? Pinkie sure isn’t going to tell me. There are things she shouldn’t promise, in my opinion.

...Fluttershy is asking if I can give her a massage. I dunno if I can do that, since I can’t feel them. I guess I’ll humor her, for now.

Felicia just showed back up with frosting on her elbow. I think Pinkie’s planning something. I should probably ask her about it...

...there’s going to be a concert featuring Sweetie Belle. I might have a nice evening if this keeps up.

Sorry it has been a while since I’ve added anything to this. These past few days have been quite hectic. As grateful as I am for the extra point of views and great advice that they give me, I don’t like when they deem it necessary to tease, taunt or ridicule me.

Anyways, I think the good news should come first. Less characters have come to my work, so I’m not as distracted. Fluttershy and Sweetie Belle have been there, though they mostly stay in the back and play, or sing a few songs with me.

And now for what could possibly be bad news. Fluttershy confessed her feelings for me yesterday, but Nepeta apparently felt like that for me as well. I know that they’re parts of my imagination, but I don’t know if I can feel that way about them. I don’t want to hurt their feelings, either...besides, what if I want an actual girlfriend someday? Would I have to deal with their jealousy?

I wish I knew what to do.

Maybe Kanaya has a suggestion...

Not much to write today. I got some more responsibilities for me to do at work, and Twilight took it upon herself to help me stay focused and keep my responsibilities memorized. Like I said, I’m glad I have these characters to help out. I might be lost, otherwise.

Oddly enough, I haven’t seen most of the characters I’ve noticed before in a while. Rainbow appears just to goad me on to do something I’d otherwise ignore, mostly a good thing. Twilight helps with responsibilities and organization, because I tend to be a little scatterbrained. Pinkie keeps me thinking positive with her wacky personality. Sweetie Belle is there to keep me from doing anything I’d regret. Nepeta and Karkat help me stay entertained when I’d otherwise be bored. Fluttershy...well, she keeps me company through everything I do. I haven’t heard from Rarity and Applejack in a while, so I can’t help but be nervous. I hope they’re okay.

On a separate note, I accidentally imagined Fluttershy as a star sapphire. Thankfully, she is one of the ones that are actually in control of their powers. I started wondering which corps the other ponies would fit into, but I put a stop to that. I wouldn’t want to subject anyone to the possible horrors of the indigo tribe. I mean, something about them just gives me the creeps...

This past Easter was quite unusual for me. Songs were sung, games were played and love was found.

Maybe I should start from the beginning...

My family went to church. As usual for Easter, it was full to overflowing with people. We were halfway through the mass when Rarity trotted in and started commenting on how some people were wearing t-shirts and shorts. Pinkie sat on my shoulders, leaning forward over my head. Needless to say, I was having a bit of difficulty paying attention. Thankfully, a few days ago I found that I didn't need to verbally speak to them; apparently, they can read my thoughts. This makes it difficult to read...certain stories...

After church, we went to Sonic for some drinks. Pinkie kept asking if they had sarsaparilla, even after I told her "no"...fifteen times, I think? Sweetie was there, asking for some water. She kept questioning Rarity about why she didn't want anything to drink. Rarity simply said that the drinks Sonic had were not "fancy" enough, or something. I don't really know, since I stop listening to her when she goes off on rants like that.

Then we watched "The Passion of the Christ". Fluttershy sat next to me, whimpering in unease throughout the movie. I held her close as discreetly as possible, gently comforting her. After the film, I thanked her for watching it with me, even when she didn't need to.

...man, her blush is adorable.

Later, when we were at the family party, we were playing backyard baseball. After most of my family stopped, and there were only three of us left playing, Pinkie and Fluttershy volunteered to be my "ghost players". Truth be told, they were quite good; Pinkie stole home base without me knowing, and Shy actually managed to get past a player with a ball.

Afterwards, we came home and watched "MMMystery on the Friendship Express". Not much to say about it, but Fluttershy did seem a bit uncomfortable during the show, which makes sense, considering...

And, lastly, Shy and I have been "dating" for a bit. I have to say, I never expected her to be my dream girl...er, pony. We cuddled together last night, enjoying every moment. And, just before I fell asleep, I could have sworn I felt a kiss on my cheek...

Anyways, til next time.

Today, Twilight learned of the solar eclipse about to happen on Sunday. She rushed about, trying to gather items to help her properly watch it. Of course, since she couldn't really grab things, I was stuck dragging around a telescope, a piece of white cardboard, and an acoustic guitar.

I asked her why she needed this last object, because it doesn't really have anything to do with what the online page said. She explained it away as her wanting "mood music". And then she batted her eyelashes at me.

...I just now realized the implications of what she was doing. I'm gonna go cuddle with Fluttershy for about fifteen minutes so I can forget about that.

Rainbow saw me watching "Epic Rap Battles of History" today, and I guess she decided to try it out for herself.

I say that because she started to spout out some stuff at Twilight. I only heard the first two lines - "Well, lookie here, if it isn't the egg head! Tell me, does it hurt to know you and Big Mac never shared a bed?" - before I put on my headphones to drown it out. I was having none of that.

Twilight looked very uncomfortable during the whole thing, and she glared at Rainbow as the pegasus seemed to finish. What surprised me, though, was the fact that Twilight took a turn at it. I was so shocked, in fact, that I didn't think to take my headset off until she was almost done.

What I heard: "I heard that you prefer fillies over colts. Makes me wonder why you really wanna join the Wonderbolts!"

I broke it up before it got too out of hand. I was having none of that in my house! At least, not without some kind of device to record it.

...how would that even work, if it's all in my head?

Never mind.

Rainbow has been begging me to imagine her as a Green Lantern. She said she wants to try and pull a prank on Pinkie with the ring. Of course, I said no. She fumed, complaining that I pay more attention to the story and Fluttershy than I do to everypony else.

...sadly, that's true.

Anywho, other than those things, and more cuddling with Fluttershy, there hasn't been much to talk about lately.

Oh well.

Twilight is still griping about missing the solar eclipse. She hates the fact that the clouds here aren't regulated by pegasi. We got to watch it online, but she said that she wanted to see it in person.

...in pony?

Whatever. You know what I mean.

Vinyl Scratch showed up a few days ago, and she offered to be the DJ for the rap battles. Which everypony here apparently wants to join.

Except for Fluttershy...for which I am grateful beyond words. Those things can be brutal. I know for a fact that Rarity was freaked out by what was said and done in hers, and Pinkie was crying in my tub afterwards.

As it turns out, when Fluttershy...well...goes into heat...she gets cuddly. Thankfully, she doesn't feel the need to take it further, which, I'll be honest, was a welcome surprise at the time. Of course, there are those two other ponies who are still vying for my affections...but I'll deal with that when I have to.

Vinyl and I were chatting this weekend while I was walking to work. Or, more accurately, I was listening to her go on about "epic wub-wubs", or something like that. Anyways, I wasn't watching where I was going, and I fell down a flight of stairs. I'm not seriously hurt - just a hairline fracture - but she still feels guilty about it.

Other than that, there's not much to say.

Have a nice day!

So yeah, almost everypony here loves to participate in the Epic Rap Battles of MLP. In fact, they enjoy any Epic Rap Battles they hear. I could swear that I heard Rarity - Rarity - rapping Marilyn Monroe's part from the originals.

Anyways, I found out that, not only does Vi actually like me that way, but she wants to spend New Year's Eve and Day with me. She wants to be the one to kiss me when it strikes midnight. Who'd've thunk?

Meanwhile, I'm trying to write for the ERB of MLP aftermath, but I can't think of anything good. It doesn't really help that there's three new ponies in my house. Babs is fine, and Sombra I can easily ignore, but Lightning Dust?

She bugs the ever-living snot out of me.

She keeps talking about how she's the best there ever was, and how the Wonderbolts made a huge mistake kicking her out like that. I swear, she's almost as bad as Blueblood. Blueblood!

But that's neither here nor there. I decided that this will be the thing I use to help keep my imagination up and writer's block at bay. After all, who doesn't like reading silly stuff that other people do? Besides, this makes it so that I don't have to keep updating my blog.

I think that's about it, actually. I just need to make a few vectors for my OC to use for a title card for a certain story of mine, and then make sure to work on rap battles during the break!

Have a nice day!
