You can guess you've kinda arrived when someone's taken it upon themselves to translate your fic into another language, and apparently doing it seriously.
I got a message about usage (the "And stop calling me Shirley" running gag), and it occurred to me this is really happening, even though I already knew, and didn't take it that seriously. I mean, really?

Great, 22 followers ... and a stalker. Yes, I mean you, Bellatrix.
Next chapter is on its way, just getting everything worked out, then letting Nathan give it an approval scan ... since he's caught up in this.
My Little Arkastin is coming along slowly, still need a little information to get the baddies right ... if applicable.

Still setting up the next run of disasters, but the end is in sight. Expect things to get very unpleasant for a lot of ponies, Verdigris most of all.
If he doesn't become a mad-pony, I'm sure someone will be surprised.

Just about finished with the changes. Then we get into the meat of the story, more or less.

Yeah, there's a lot to this mini-arc, but we'll get through it. With a gap or two in time, naturally. I'm not going to bore you with down-time and the Academy. Wouldn't be prudent. (Wait for it...)

Chapter 21 is on its way soon-ish. Be ready for a few twists, turns and arguments.

Yeah, Ivan's just a little tightly-wound, isn't he? Blame the one on the sidelines who's throwing these at me; I'm just making this readable.
Edit: Yeah, the joke's deliberate; I'll actually use it soon.

No, I don't mean the lenses.
Chapter 20 should be up soon, and once again White Wolf has tossed a few ideas my way. Damn, if this keeps up, I'll have to extend co-authorship. Eh, no big thing. So far.

I just finished breaking up a seriously long chapter, then after logging out I noticed a familiar title in the Featured Box.
My first thought was "No way!!" Then, thirty minutes later it was gone.
I guess Monday's not finished with me...

Chapter 18 is up, and I've collaborated with White Wolf for one character, and the exchange has expanded on what may follow.
Hmm? What's that? Oh, the usual betrayal, back-stabbing, killing, lies, and so on. Still working out how to apply the Seven Deadly Sins in Equestria, but I've got time.
That is, if Knighty doesn't troll us like that again.
