@Yeller: Funny that, it's possible to approach magic from a programming language standpoint. Only thing is, no-one's ever tried to used languages like Java or Python or C to cast spells.

The problem with casting spells in Java or C or Python is that magic isn't in any of the standard libraries.

@Ace (Re Slice of Life): I like how a consequence of not teaching a young Pegasus to fly is Super Death.

Ha

Pumpkin bragging about learning magic is kinda cute :3 She'll be singing a different tune once Twi's training difficulty curve kicks in.

@Kyler: Playing Magic: The Gathering in itself is practically learning how to program as it is. Deckbuilding is all about optimization and choices and stringing together effective combinations while countering rival decks.

Naw, I don't see deckbuilding in any way similar to programming. For one thing, it's way too non-deterministic. It's less about sequences and steps, and more about probabilities.

I was right about her part-timing at Sugarcube Corner. Ha!

@Kyler: In an abstract way, it does. It's just less predictable because statistics gets involved. Messily.

Also, "Madame Jubilee" tag has some hits on it. I see the fandom didn't let that one go.

That she is. (I don't really care for the bedroom eyes, though.)

Really? I can't quite whether that look is 'Why hello there' or 'I will rip your flesh open'.

Regardless of intent, they look like bedroom eyes. At least I think they do.

Bedroom Eyes actually have a tag on Derpi :V

Anybody know a good "ponies get turned into humans" fic? You know, reverse "human in Equestria." Quadruple points if it's a First Contact story along the lines of ARTICLE 2 or Arrow 18 Mission Logs.

I've already read Anthropology.
