Wow, Sassy's back already.
Wow, Sassy's back already.
Stop dancing Twilight! We have important horsewords work to do!
I'm going to revise Back to Normal soon, and I've decided since I avoided Trotsworth's Rule 63 names (since most of them suck) except for Elusive and Barb, I should make a completely clean break and change Spike and Rarity to different names entirely.
Being a fan of the Applespike romance, the topic of Rarity's future always comes into question. I find that some of the best stories (for romance that is) have more than one pairing in the story, with the focus varying between main couples and sub/background pairings. This is simply to add depth to characters and ultimately makes it more enjoyable to read. As my brother said "there's more than one ship in a fleet"
Cheesey I know, but so brilliantly punny.
No intro and outro videos this time... first off I don't have anything ready for general fanfics... second, these three stories do not deserve them.
I try to be reasonable with my reviews, until now I've limited myself to just Fallout: Equestria fanfics, and I haven't actually tackled anything truly bad, this changes tonight. These reviews aren't going to be very common, but I wanted to do this about these three reviews specifically for several reasons.
So got stuck in a pass on my way home from the holiday. Damn snow. No update on BIE because I'm looking at the 3K word chapter and I'm not 100% satisfied with it so I will be working on it today and tomorrow.
Bought a new Wacom Intuos Draw tablet. Even got the wireless kit with it. After trying to get used to using a drawing tablet again, I finally managed to draw EqG Rarity. Just line art for now. Will color it later. Time invested so far: 3 1/2 hours. Used Art Rage. Usually I draw on Photoshop, but I can't get the tablet buttons to work optimally on there... plus I kinda like how easy the "traditional art" emulation is on Art Rage.
WOW!
Holy jalapena, that came out of nowhere.
We actually had a voting battle for this new chapter, featuring Rarity's transformation.
For a while it seemed like Dragon was going to dominate, but Diamond Dog came out of nowhere to get the big win.
Diamond Dog won the vote with a whopping 184 votes out of 444!
Dragon came REALLY close though, getting 171 votes.
The bad news is...Missy is two days late in posting this review
The good news is...Happy Memorial Day!
My new collaboration with FamousLastWords has been released- go and check it out!!

A very apt blog title, this one; the result totally blew me away. After a Fashion, my entry in the Barcast's Make Rarity Not Garbage contest, won third place in said contest.
Aragon won, of course. I wasn't expecting to even medal, but with him in the mix, it just isn't fair for us mere mortals.
Finished ’The Fires of Friendship’ a few days ago, a Rarijack fic by Ponydora Prancypants.
It was a good read! I like how it presents a little history between AJ and Rarity before the beginning of the series, and how their budding friendship seemingly wasn’t meant to be. Filly Rarity trying to use complex words (albeit getting them wrong) and come off as posh was adorable; that was a nice personality quirk, to the writer’s credit.
IN WHICH I DO A PROJECT & WRITE
Now that I have a new lappy, I need to get all my music - over a hundred albums, many of which are on physical CD - burned onto my 1TB external SSD... using an external optical drive... the lappy merely acts as a go-between. Lately I've been thinking about the writing process again. Click text for insights of a crazy man?
Rarity called our favorite cyan speedster Dashie... It was possibly the strangest thing in the entire twenty two minutes for me.
That is all.
One Hearts and Hooves Day, Princess Twilight is feeling very down due to being single. Dash somehow gets Flash Sentry to visit from the Crystal Empire to considering becoming head of Twilight's guard, and they hit it off immediately. Rarity is impressed... And then mystified when she learns that even more couples in Ponyville have gotten together thanks to Rainbow Dash!
How can this be?! IT'S IMPOSSIBLE!
Rarity looms over Dash's bed in the middle of the night
Before I watched the episode, I knew from the title that it was a reference to the classic Christmas short story "The Gift of the Magi". If you're familiar with the story, then you can pretty much guess the plot.
Note: in a cheap move to generate views, I’ve added a sexy picture to this blog. Just being honest.
Anyway...
Sweating Bullets
Showing that I am still new to posting and formatting Fanfiction, I've been trying to get this story approved since early morning on Christmas Eve!
Hope it's a bit more well-received than my other story. It's a short one, though even at 6100 words, it seems a tad long. :P
Just wanted to give you guys a tiny update.
So far I've been keeping my word, and written 500 words minimum on the newest chapter. This is likely to become a big chapter, as there is a lot to cover, maybe I even get the whole Rarity thing into this chapter as well, as I feel it would fit pretty well.
So far the chapter is 3.000 words, and I'm not half way yet.
So I hope you guys will enjoy it when it comes out.
Thank you for your patience.
