Biography

I am a human-shaped unicorn, and I write stories and draw pictures. My only religion is Friendship, and my only politics is Kindness. I write stories to try to comprehend the native simians that live on the planet I'm kind of stuck on. I know I'll never figure them out, but it's fun to try.

With all the stories about cool vampires, I wish there were more epics about cool eldritch abominations. I watched the Scorn gameplay trailer and found it rather soothing.

Oh, I absolutely agree with Crystal Alchemist. For me, John Carpenter's 'The Thing' is the definitive work. The original fifties version is suck city. The reason is that I am a fan of the story that 'The Thing' is based on, John W. Campbell's 'Who Goes There'. (Link to PDF of story for free). Carpenter actually represented the original story correctly, and included scenes straight from the text! The fifties movie basically had Tibor the human carrot from Lost In Space. Seriously.

I would argue that Aliens, the sequel to Alien is better than the original, and the original was excellent. Nothing after that was worth much (maybe, just maybe Alien Resurrection was fun, maybe) but Aliens, oh that was classic.

In general, remakes are not improvements, but sometimes... sometimes they are vastly better, The Thing being the only example I can think of right at the moment. There has to be another, surely?

But, I would argue, that there are some movies that should never be remade or given sequels. Citizen Kane is a prime example... and I would put Blade Runner in that catagory too (obviously). Some stories just... say what they say so perfectly that the job is done. Casablanca. There is a movie that is just perfect, and a remake would be a mistake, and be less. It would detract from the brilliance of the original.

THE AMBASSADOR'S SON: This story of a pony adopted by a dragon, and who in spirit -and some reality- becomes a dragon is touching, clever, adventurous and filled with brilliant worldbuilding! · · · · · THE MIDNIGHT RUN: If you ever thought that Earthponies get the short stick, this is the story you need to read right now. Brilliant beyond words. · · · · · THE CONTEST: Of all the fiction on this site, this is the one work that I feel should be a canon episode, part of the show itself. · · · · · Friendship Is Optimal: Equestria Online is the new game to play - only the fully sapient artificial intelliegence of Celest A.I. wants to play forever! The origin of an entire story genre!. · · · · · RAILROAD SEVEN-THREE: Utterly believable humans fight to transport newfoals to the Equestrian barrier, and along the way, the only legitimate exploration of why a human would not 'Go Pony' is presented well, and smartly.

Chatoyance's Top Favourites

TWIST IN THE TAIL: Gender transformation is added to the Conversion Bureau mythos and the result is wacky fun that becomes touching and dear. · · · · · OPTIMALVERSE - ALWAYS SAY NO: A brilliant, exciting, thrilling look at the human world after Celest A.I. has uploaded most of humanity. Good enough to be a television series! · · · · · Friendship Is Optimal - FIREWALL: What protects the servers that run the virtual world of Equestria? The answer is not what, but who! · · · · · DAMES OF THE TEA TABLE: Want to know princess Luna? This is the story that invites the reader to sit at her table and see who she really is. · · · · · HEAT AND DESIRE: There is now something five times more disturbing and compelling than the Conversion Bureau, and it is filled with teeth and it will chew your soul and spit it out - and you will be grateful for the mauling. Sometimes utter brilliance comes with the price of Lovecraftian horror.

Chatoyance's Top Favourites

TCB TEN DAYS: In this brilliant Bureau story, teens learn about themselves and life as they deal with the problems of conversion. Should be a live-action television series. · · · · · TCB THE COLDEST DISH: Memorable characters highlight this tale of pony revenge with an absolutely perfect ending. · · · · · TCB REALITY BREAK: Shaping up to be one of the most bizarre, yet interesting takes on the Bureau universe yet. · · · · · AN The Conversion Bureau - A Girl's Wish: A sweet, gentle transformation story written brilliantly in the style of storybook for a young child · · · · · Friendship Is Optimal: The Law Offices of Artemis, Stella & Beat: CelestA.I. plays chess with the legal foundations of the United States - the game is forgone, but the moves are fantastic to watch!

Chatoyance's Top Favourites

A DREAM THAT WASN'T: There are countless 'Soldier Dies and Goes To Equestria' stories, but this is the one good one. And it is truly good. · · · · · BACKGROUND PONY: Lyra is literally that, cursed to be forgotten within half an hour, all traces of her existence obliterated, perpetually in the background. This is brilliant, Twilight Zone fiction, with a touch of Lovecraft · · · · · OUT AND ABOUT IN THE EQUESTRIAN KINGDOM: This is super cyberpunk nano-age done right, with a completely brilliant set of original ideas that will blow your cranial jacks out of your head. · · · · KING OF DIAMONDS: The sequel to The Ambassador's Son, this is not to be missed. · · · · · FLEURDELISER: The finest look at what Canterlot high society might be like, focused on a fantastic background character.

Astonishing!  ·  ·  ·  ·  · PETRICULTURE: The author unknowingly evokes the Buddhist concept of the Tulpa here, and the result is both cosmic, and mind exploding. · · · · · ROCKY ROAD: This redemption story about a bigot who becomes the very thing he hates is nothing but marvelous. · · · · · STRIPED LIKE ME: Racism tackled head on in an intelligent, powerful, and incredibly brilliant manner. · · · · · THE BOOK OF FRIENDSHIP: Simultaneously disturbing, confrontive, humorous, touching, inspiring and fulfilling.
