Lol, reminded me of a Nethack session where I was unlucky enough to spawn with 7 overpowered level 13 cobalts on my first dungeon and was slaughtered on first tern.

Guys I have...my story. It's been months (In fact, almost a year!) in the works. Can I share it here?

You already shared it with me, but fire away!

Go ahead, let's see your story.

Oh, the thread? Don't worry, it's just dead.

Yay! Storytime!

oh, it seems the fandom already created a crew of filly scouts to go with Tag-a-long

wait, a story? lets hear it!

XP granted for befriending a giant magical spider!

Oh, Lyra, you so silly.

I don't have a problem with it, but you may get more feedback if you also share it in the Pony fanfiction thread.

And, since today is apparently National Jump To Conclusions Day...

OK, I'm working out a 'back story', a mythology if you will, but the story right now, and I'm using titles instead of names because the characters are yet to be finalized, is:

The Captain (the hero of the story) got his Letter Of Marque from Celestia to do a Grand Voyage around the world, and his servant (assume he's rich like Twilight) organised the crew for his expedition...but said crew and the servant betray him as soon as they leave port (they are actually pirates, and his servant is looking to steal the letter and the ship to hunt a treasure)...and chuck him overboard. There, he's rescued/washed up on the Lime Keys...the pony 'Caribbean' ...and thus he has to organize a new crew among the 'dregs' of this place to continue his journey.

That's it so far. I don't know if he should get the betrayers back at the Keys or later, but this is the basic idea I'm going to run with and expand upon. It's bare bones at the moment I know...but it'll get fleshed out in time.

Alrighty!

Seriously, Bon Bon, couldn't you have used one of your other voices? This one is way too whiney.

You mentioned how you don't like names that relate to the job of the pony. That's basically how my family's naming scheme works

What does Orion Aurora have to do with your job?

Life is simple: it has no nontrivial normal subgroups.

#334337 Lopiny Wed, 30th Jan '13 7:20:07 PM from somewhere

Sounds like a good start to me.

Oh, the thread? Don't worry, it's just dead.

reminded me of a Nethack session where I was unlucky enough to spawn with 7 overpowered level 13 cobalts on my first dungeon and was slaughtered on first tern.

Ahh, but was it an artic tern? I've always wanted to hear one of them. Apparently their cry sounds like backstreet boys.

Kind of a shame they lifted the cript whole hog from Llamas with Hats, but oh well.

...there was something else I wanted to say while I was here but I forgot. Oh well.

@Story: Well, I do work at a planetarium.

Yeah, Andromeda is heading for you. You got over 9000 years until it collides.

#334342 storyyeller Wed, 30th Jan '13 7:48:40 PM from Appleloosa

But I'm talking about ponies whose name is just a literal description of their job or something related to their job. It's not like you're named Star Projector.

Life is simple: it has no nontrivial normal subgroups.

#334343 Orion Aurora Wed, 30th Jan '13 7:50:30 PM from Andromeda Galaxy

@Story: Never mind then. I misunderstood you. You see, my the names of my family tend to relate to the general field in which they work in.

Yeah, Andromeda is heading for you. You got over 9000 years until it collides.

I love being STRONG

And I bet you love furbeasts too.

It is in the nature of the spiteful to spread animosity.

Aye

For those curious about the Lyra killing Dan video, its based on this

, made by the same people that brought you Charlie the Unicorn. I suggest watching the whole series.

You there! Check out my Youtube Channel! The power of Ponies compel you!

It's basic I know. But there's a plot there right? To be fleshed out?
