    Rise From Your Grave

    Well this is rather... something.

    So much time passed, things started, things ended, life lived, and all the rest.

    Now what is this?


    That's probably what you're thinking

    It has been a hot minute (or two) since the last time I posted anything so I can fully understand.

    And I believe that last blog post was more or less just me talking about my plans to attend a convention that took place last year. *ooph* But in case you were wondering about that it went very well. I'll have to post the pictures up sometime.

    I'mma Do A Cool Thing


    Good morning readers, followers, and confused ones who are here by possible accident.

    This blog post is being made for a few reasons, most of which are selfish, and somewhat petty.

    No Update...not at all.

    That's right nothin!

    This is certainly not a gosh darn thing about to happen anytime soon, get out of here.

    Do not get excited for updates or anything cool, because that would be silly, and such unprecedented levels of excitement would make you silly as well.

A Wild Announcement Appeared! · 12:25am Sep 17th, 2013

I'm back!

Seriously! you see this --> No! stop it!

Sorry folks was disconnected for a wee bit there. Moved, had to build up enough monies to properly pay bills and not have to feast on ramen day after day, and a new job. Things got a little topsy turvy there, and I've fallen incredibly out of the loop. Luckily a few good buddies have kind of caught me up a little bit, and now that things are back in balance I can resume my efforts to bring to you B- Grade stories riffled with grammar mistakes and bad punctuation (I swear I'll fix that last chapter!)

Sadly I can't reward you patience with an update right now (though you F.B.N.T.M. fans deserve it more than anyone else. Forgive me I'm just having issues making the third chapter sound as good as the previous two are.) But it dawned upon me that perhaps I can offer something that might at least tide you over till my updating starts to pick up speed.

PREVIEWS!!!

Yes this marvelous cop ou*cough* I mean brilliant idea will hopefully restore your faith in me as well as give you some things to think over as I give my google docs a firm workout. So let's say I give you readers a few lines of dialogue to obsess over for the 'three' fics that will hopefully be updated soon.

!Dealt A Bad Hoof!- Chapter 8

.....Rolling her eyes at the direction the conversation had taken Trixie fought the urge to gag her captive with her magic as well. "Trixie would advise that you keep quiet and kindly allow 'her' to do the questioning."

Narrowing his eyes 'Trustworthy' hissed in response to the blue aura that now tightly bound his legs beneath him, though his grin hadn't changed. "Oh! Did I touch a sore spot there cutie?"

Scoffing in response Trixie willed the bindings tighten more so which elicited another hiss though this time from pain instead of defiance. "The Great and Powerful Trixie is only going to ask one more time. Where..is..TRIXIE'S..DRAGON?!"

'Trustworthy' wilted unconsciously as a cold chill began to crawl up his back, and he inwardly cursed his luck. "W-why do you want him so bad? You friends or something?"

Frowning at the changelings choice of words Trixie's horn glowed brightly as she approached him. "....Something like that."

END:

And if you liked that how about a little piece from our next fic.

!Fast, But Not Too Much!- Chapter 3

......"This is quite the situation, isn't it." Tossing her mane to the side Rarity nervously bit her bottom lip as she imagined her scaled friend making his way down to her boutique as she spoke. This was all so sudden! She was ill prepared, caught off guard, virtually without any defenses to shield herself with. Sapphire eyes darting to the still hovering Rainbow Dash the fashionista restrained the urge to plead for assistance.

"Buck yeah it is! Spike's probably on his way right now Rarity, and from what I heard he's giving it all he's got."

"This simply will not do, I look an absolute mess!" Peering at herself in the mirror Rarity paled at the small bags that had formed under her eyes from the near all nighter she had pulled in order to finish her last dress. "Dash tell me, what does he have planned?" As the marshmallow unicorn began to gallop from one room to the next in a desperate attempt to gussy up, Rainbow Dash soared behind trying to help as best as she could.

"He and Pinkie Pie were talking about dancing or something, and I totally remember him saying something about a place called the mervi-merviloose newt amoory I think." An ear piercing shriek emitted from Rarity so loudly that the cyan unicorn crashed onto the floor in an attempt to cover her poor ears with her wings, and hooves.

"The Merveilleuse nuit d'amour!!! The MOST expensive, most romantic restaurant in all of Equestria!" Rarity let out another squeal so loud that Dash contemplated her odds of joining the wonderbolts without either ear still attached. Before the pegasus could finish her pondering she felt a sudden pair of hooves hoisting her into the air, and twirl her around wildly. "THIS IS THE ABSOLUTE BEST THING!"

"Wha?"

END:

Yeah that's happening people...just needs perfecting. But wait there's more

!You wish I'd tell you the title!

..."W-who's there?" The filly's question was only met with the eerie quiet that dominated the foreboding reaches of the Everfree Forest. Applebloom suppressed a shiver as the trees around her seemed to cloister around her, and her basket felt ten times as heavy. "Ah'm not kiddin if there's somepony out here trying to scare, it's not funnah. Backing up toward the path back home Applebloom turned around fully prepared to call it quits, and endure any disappointment that her family might have had for her. That is until she bumped head first into something incredibly solid.

"Ooph!" The red-maned filly would have given the careless pony who had crashed into her a solid chewing out if her nose hadn't picked up on an alien odor. The air smelled of burning wood, and a bit like the gemstones that Sweetie Bell's older sister would attach to her dresses. A numbness began to creep along Applebloom's small body as she remembered the ghost stories her granny would tell her when she was younger. "Everfree ain't like the rest of Equestria. It's filled to the brim with all manner of beast and monsters from timberwolves to manticores....even..."

"D-D-Dragons.." Though every fiber of her being screamed at her to turn away, to run away as fast as her little legs would allow her, Applebloom looked up from the ground and into the eyes of a myth made real.

"Uhh..hello?"

The first thing that Applebloom did was scream.

End:

Well what do you guys think of that? I know my Applebloom writing needs work (accents are gonna be tricky) Despite the lack of internet I have been able to do a little tinkering with ideas with my free time. Seriously it's great to be back, and I hope I can do the three stories mentioned the justice they deserve. But! First things first, I'm so behind on my reading it's barely funny. But at least now you guys and gals know that I'm still working, and hopefully I can have some updates ready for you before too long.

Sorry for the wait, and thank you for your patience readers.
