Tell Your Tale hasn’t quite told all the tales for this year, so we’re dipping back into G4 for a bit. Specifically the next round of Classics Reimagined. No prizes for guessing who’s in the great and powerful titular role, but we’ll get to that when we get to it. First we need to get out of Horse Kansas.
Now that I’m more or less up to date with d20 Pony, let’s look at a different pony webcomic. Indeed, let’s look at one of the first.
Hello all. Today marks the beginning of the Stretch for Time Fortnight my rambling about the short lead-up animations for the movies, a welcome change in terms of ease of viewing. After all, Hasbro put these on their own YouTube channel. I’ve provided links, since odds are these are far from fresh in anyone’s memory.
You’d probably think I can’t get much out of shorts that aren’t even three minutes long each. You would be wrong.
It’s that time again. Let’s cap off the latest addition to the dynasty with collectable cardboard representations of each entry, as per tradition.
I'm writing my final fic on this site before I call it quits. It's a crossover between Gen 4 and my novel, Dragon of Grace. It tackles all sorts of serious and heavy topics: stuff like depression, suicide, religious trauma, post-traumatic stress, childhood sexual abuse, etc. However, unlike many of the fics I've seen surrounding these topics, the story takes a more uplifting turn partway through that encourages healing and the value of close relationships in times of peril. I'm a good ways into
Wherein a shy, well-built stallion tries to get the girl with the dubious help of three friends.
… Wait, haven’t we done this before?
Given the continually erratic rate of Tell Your Tale releases, we return to Trailblazer and company, and just in time for the Autumn Festival!

Well, it works for the Southern Hemisphere.
I have written reviews of video games I have played for a long time. I realized that it was kind of silly that I only ever posted them on Steam and Metacritic, and not here. So I thought I'd start out with something of a doozy - The Talos Principle, a game which was widely regarded as the game of the year of 2014 (and not just because the cover art has a robot petting a kitten).
It has been a while since I wrote one of these. I had been planning to put this out before Christmas, but I ended up procrastinating too much on it, and didn’t get the last two stories reviewed until last night, when I was, ironically, procrastinating on doing something else.
Clearly, the real secret to productivity is to make it so that you loop your procrastination around to the point where you are always getting stuff done.
So, some good news for once!
I’ve got some chapters done (especially one super chapter that’s acting as a side story to “Elements”, which is going to be part of an anthology). However, I’ve got some art I need to do for a few stories that are to be posted. That may take some time... Hopefully I’ll be able to get it ready soon.
To sum up, I’ve got:
- 1 One-Shot story done
- 1 New Story with 2 chapters done *Needs title image*
- 1 New Story with 1 chapter done *Needs title image*
So I just saw the third EQG movie, and now that I don't have to worry about spoilers, I will (hopefully) be back on here more often. I'll post a more detailed review once I've had time to sit down and go through it again, but for now suffice to say I liked it. Was it as good as Rainbow Rocks? No, not really. Was it nearly as bad as the first Equestria Girls? A resounding NOPE. Ultimately, it was fairly solid - not amazing, but at least worth the DVD price. Plus, to be honest, I quite enjoyed
Yep.
Been trying to write for about a week now. Can't seem to get anything down that I can update. (Well, not counting Switcharootaloo of course, because that's silly and oh who cares.) So I've been trying to find inspiration with one of the new games I got.
Spoilers! You've been warned! Also, expect some talk of Friendship Games, so yeah, bewaaare.
Unrelated Gallus, but Gallus is great so here you go anyway
This isn't entirely a blog about video games. The site gets a lot of those, and they aren't necessarily fun to read - if nothing else, they're self-indulgent.
Neither is it entirely a blog about politics. The site gets a lot of those, and they tend to inspire lots of vitriol, justified or not.
