    Reboot in process

    I'm still missing some minor functions, such as money but life hasn't killed me yet.
    Sure it threw a car at me, but like 2000 pounds of metal traveling at any given speed isn't going to take me out.

    Of course, it would poetic for a car to come through my wall any second now...

    No, I'm still good.

    Need some help

    This is kind of funny. I'm looking for some harder to find shipping pairs.
    I mean, it's easy enough to find Rarity/Applejack stuff, and Twilight/Fluttershy isn't impossible to locate. But it's really hard to find good Pinkie/Celestia stuff.

    I'll probably complete the full cycle later and go looking for Dash/Gilda or Sweetie/Luna too...

    Remember back when I started hating Trixie fics?

    It was on my queue in big letters, it stopped me from reviewing for like... two or three weeks?
    This was the reason why.

    And no, it's not mine. You know how sometimes I'll say "I went and told my roommate that idea, and once the vomiting stopped-" or something to that effect?

    Public Relations Attempts

    People only pay attention to art.

    Ergo, to get people to understand that pre-readers are actual human beings, not unlike themselves, we need some sort of regularly updating fan comic about the people who guard the gates of Olympus.
    Or in this case, three or four posts a day at EqD. People see it as the same thing either way really.

Why isn't there a downvote on it then? :B

Because it's fundamentally good?
Not great. No one got around to editing it in the 3 months or so it was sitting idle. But it's... Okay?

Wait.

Everything about this journal suggests that that story is bad. c.c What?

Implications are fun?
Plus I'm used to seeing things as septic, bleeding, pusfilled aberations. Even things I like usually start with the parts I complain about.

So trying to edit that, getting into fights over characterization of Trixie and tone... Well, too much Trixie at one time. So addtional Trixie was simply over kill.
