Minor delay and AMA/Q&A · 2:10am May 23rd, 2016

The time has come to retire my faithful old laptop. It's held together with tape at this point, the keyboard has been playing up for months and it's just getting on in years. It's served me well, but I need something new... something that isn't held together with tape.:derpytongue2:

What the means is that I won't be working on my fics as much until everything has been moved.:twilightblush: Sorry for the delay!

Reader Question · 7:34am Dec 7th, 2015

I've seen some really good guesses in the comments for Wasteland Bouquet about who/what Starfall is, how she's connected to Rose, and what her role in things is. Some of them have been really close to the truth, some... not so much, but still interesting.:ajsmug:

Character Backstory - Bourbon Rose · 10:19am May 6th, 2015

The Origin of Bourbon Rose
Minor spoilers for Wasteland Bouquet, major spoilers for Bourbon Rose's past and future. Also some spoilers for Fallout Equestria.
Also a Dark warning. All good? Then read on!:rainbowlaugh:

Birth of a Wanderer

Bourbon Rose was the eldest daughter of a reasonably succesful rancher. The ranch, which she was heir to, provided brahmin to several caravan companies and had done quite well over the years.

RIP Lori the Lorikeet. · 10:55am Apr 10th, 2015

During the bushfires, we rescued a young lorikeet we named Lori. In a matter of days he worked his way into our hearts and quickly became a part of the family. We all loved him, and he loved us. Even the dog; his best friend. The two were inseperable.

On the Origin of Changelings · 4:24am Jan 17th, 2015

We all love changelings. It's only natural; they're cuddlebugs!:heart:

But, where do they come from? Why do they need love? Why are they just so darn cute?

On 3am Wake-Ups · 12:40pm Jan 10th, 2015

Do all lorrikeets go mad at 3am, or just mine?

That's Lorri, the lorrikeet we rescued. Happy, friendly, healthy, friends with the dog and fond of singing his little heart out every night at 3am.
Such an adorable little alarm clock. I almost don't mind having to get up and scratch his head to quiet him down, the feather-headed little blighter. :yay:

EDIT: More photos!:pinkiehappy:

Ranty Goodness. · 4:12pm Jan 6th, 2015

Warning: Contains ranting, Destiny, insanity and nuts.

With that out of the way: SWEET CELESTIA ON A TRICYCLE!:twilightangry2:

So, anyone play Destiny? Yes? No? Just me? My parrot? Yes, I have a parrot. His name is Lorri. He's a lorrikeet. Funny story, but I'll get to him later. Promise.

See, I got Bungie's Destiny the other day, and have been enjoying it despite the occasional... hiccup. Australian internet; enough said.
