Progress on New Fic (will be fully completed first before posted). · 2:00am Jun 4th, 2013
Official Title: Pinkie Pie's Ponyville Paranormal Proof Providers Inc.
So yeah, work has begun on this fic, and my ideas are flowing and flowing in. I think it might end up as a 40k word thing, and should be somewhat light-hearted but dramatic at times in nature. I try to shoot for the writing style of Stargate SG-1, pretty much.
Since I don't want to post it chapter by chapter, I'll have to settle with occasional blog posts for feedback. However, posting it in full form will allow me to make the story more coherent and 'structured', and allow for me to change things that don't work as new ideas come up. That being said, I have it planned out pretty well so far, as well as a comprehensive list of the characters. Look below.
WARNING = MOST MAJOR PLOT RELATED SPOILERS TAKEN OUT AS WELL AS SURPRISE CHARACTER SPOILERS. SOME MAY STILL BE INFERRED. READ AT YOUR OWN RISK. Suggestions for cameo characters can be posted :).

Ohh ohh! The Joestars and Dio Brando from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure would be fun to see, especially since I can't recall seeing them in any pony fic as of the time of posting this.
So I'll be seeing this image in my nightmares... (no, that's not a pun)
That's some mighty strong nightmare fuel you've provided. I like it.
This scream to your picture
All the unknowns looks like the CIA had a fucking field day!

I'm guessing the ent is Fluttershy and the undead son of a pirate is Pipsqueak. I think the evil king is Sombra. I would say the insane paranormal thate can see the future is Pinkie Pie, but she has a mention later on. The half-phantom unicorn is probably Rarity. The unknown member of horsehood is probably Rainbow Dash.
