I really should check out some of the Pony Blogs. Any recommendations for me?

I'm probably supposed to be doing work right now.

^I actually just did in the Fanfiction thread, too. =D The Vinyl Scratch Tapes are pretty good, too, though it's not that long.

Whatever happened to the plans to record an audio version of TVST? Didn't you audition for it?

It's already been completed - I wasn't called back, so to speak. =) I've listened to it, and it's not bad. A little lackluster, but it's just fine for amateur work.

I may soon be in the position of trying to follow more ongoing fics than I can keep track of. This distresses me.

Edit: Well shizzleponies! I can't get at part four of Vinyl Scratch Tapes 'cause of a google docs error.

Do you think we'll see the long awaited return of Fluttershy this week?

You're missing out man. I consider Fallout Equestria to be one of the greatest literary achivements known to man. And this is coming from someone who found out at age twelve that you can max out your library card.

I feel guilty whenever I read large, amazing fanfiction. Until that feeling goes away I am NEVER gonna read more than a few scattered examples here and there.

I'm not a big reader anyway, my imagination isn't good enough (or rather, I don't think my imagination can do it justice)

Looking for Pony blogs, I found a complete list of them

. I didn't know there were so many of them! Lots of different types too. I may be a while.

I do mean there are alot of them. The Ursa Major has one for goodness sake!

I'll probably pick up Fallout: Equestria over summer vacation. I've heard some really good things about it.

CDRW, be sure to let me know what you think about Dangerous Business (in the fic thread, of course). I can get a bit apologetic about it at times, but it's definitely worth reading despite its flaws.

Will do. I'm sure you know this about FE already, but a warning just in case. Fallout Equestria contains graphic violence, disturbing imagery, and lesbian ponies. Read at your own risk.

^^It does have a few, in pacing and occasionally in characterizing Dash, but otherwise, it's absolutely lovely. The exchange over whether or not Dash gets to have beer in the steadholdt in Gildedale is one of my favorite miniscenes in fic history. =D

Y'see, Just reading the SYNOPSIS of FE has ruined my good mood. I hope you're fucking HAPPY!

Oh it's not all dark and depressing.

#40268 Mio Tue, 15th Nov '11 12:22:10 PM

Dash is probably one of the characters that I think varies the most from fan fic to fan fic. Some of her more contradictory qualities are very difficult to balance, some writers try, but others simply take the qualities that work best for their story and emphasize those. That doesn't even get into all of the fanon surrounding her in fan fic.

Just in general, isn't most FiM shipping lesbian anyway? Not like there are a lot of guys to work with unless you're into background characters and/or pedophilia/interspecies.

Nothing better. Nothing worse.

Pfffft that seems to be the fucking gist of it that I'm getting here.

I just decree Everyone is Bi, and move on myself (yes that goes for the guys too

)

I actually wouldn't know. I've stayed away from most of the ship-fics.

It's not that characters are shipped with themselves that I find boggling, it's that Twilight is shipped with herself TWICE.

If someone said that the majority of FIM ship fics are not lesbian in nature, they'd be a filthy liar.

#40274 Crowfall Tue, 15th Nov '11 12:32:07 PM

I think most of those self shipping ones are from stories with alternate universe male versions of the cast.

Except Trixie. No idea whats up with that.
