Parents: "So we decided that it's fine this year if you don't want presents on your birthday, we can always postpone that for six months and do it this summer."

Me: (planning on having a busy summer and hoping to do a traditional birthday this year, but realizing that the fact they're even proposing it means they don't have any presents:)

"Uh...Sure, okay, sounds great."

Parents: "But we still should do something nice, so let's go out to eat. Our treat."

This is pretty much exactly what it says on the tin, for the record.

So you may have noticed a couple of things:

1. 'Tis the season
2. I like listening to myself ramble.

Yeah, I know, I'm like a week late with this announcement. I'm aware that I've been getting more and more scarce on here, but that doesn't mean that I'm not interested in some Fimfic events from time to time - and this is certainly, certainly no exception.

I was in a strange mood yesterday, forgive me for that.

Still don't know what I really want to do with my writing anymore. Still struggling.

Sorry about this, y'all.

Need something to kick my butt into gear, and I figure this is the best way to hold myself accountable.

Doing this as commissions and not requests because I was recently hit with a pretty big bill - not enough for me to worry about getting thrown out of my apartment or anything, but enough to make my savings wince. Also, if I do this for money, I'll be more likely to hold myself accountable for getting a product finished.

Went to start touching up my Brief History of West-Equestria before posting it.

Depending on how you define it, the history of Ost-Equestria is either very short - a mere twenty-four years - or quite long indeed, a saga spanning back since the dawn of ponykind. The races of Ost-Equestria tend to take the latter interpretation; in other countries on Equus, the former interpretation is generally considered the correct one. But, whatever the case may be, the causes leading up to the civil war known as The War in The Heavens can be traced back to the foundations of Equestria

Stalliongrad, a north-eastern territory of Equestria that formerly belonged to an independent pony kingdom of Severnaya, was annexed by Equestria in 917 ALB (After Lunar Banishment, a traditional starting point of reference on Equestria’s calendar.) That said, Severnaya never integrated into Equestria as well as Princess Celestia would have liked: the country had its own culture and national traditions that never fully died out, which constantly created varying levels of friction from

If you asked almost any changeling off the street whether they thought changelings were superior to ponies, their response would be “yes, of course.” Even the more egalitarian-minded changelings know that’s a simple fact: Ponies can’t shapeshift or access a hivemind, have slow reproduction rates and rely on physical, land-depleting food to survive. And it’s for the same principle that changelings know that they’re superior to deer, yaks, griffons or any of the other myriad races of Equestria:

I know it looks like I haven't been creative much - at least, if my writing output's any indication. To some extent, that's true: chalk it up to work, my parents being an incessant thorn in my side and good old-fashioned depression. But truth be told, there's been at least some work there, and I've gotten enough requests from folks I know to share it that I figure I should share what i have, complete or not.
