Doesn't that title make you freak out, in and of itself?

Oh. I have just remembered. Each species, each "race", sees Dream as one of theirs. Imagine Morpheus as a pony.

Oh, I have topped a page. This is the icing on the cake:

Never read the sandman before so I am a little lost but it all seems to be very interesting :)

@ Great God Pan

Nice job encouraging the most traumatic fanart we may ever see. :S....

I've created a monster.

....And yet somehow I know you're grinning just like your avatar.

Yes you have. But a pony Corinthian would be very different to the human one. He is a nightmare made of everything humanity will not confront about itself, and he turned into the pettiest version of that, a mere serial killer who thinks that his killing makes him special and unique. And yes, the Sandman features a convention of serial killers, somewhere in rural USA. It's like a very twisted mirror to our own comic-cons. It is frightening and pitiful at the same time. Now I'm not sure what the Corinthian would turn out like in Equestria. Someone petty and mean and cruel? Something like Johan the Monster, but without the lethality, who would talk ponies into breaking down and never picking themselves up again?

@Fallen: "Interesting" doesn't even begin to describe it.

Heh heh heh.

Hmmmm. Here's another image. Rarity. Desire. Let your brain get to work.

@Owlman: Oh he's already here. He's known by a different name. He is known... as Krastos.

Fuck.

In other words, Discord-ized Fluttershy.

Something about the latest episode keeps bothering me but I keep forgetting to mention it:

When Rarity comes to after the "surprise, its Twilight!" moment, why is Pinkie repeating her dialogue from the opening of "Griffon the Brush-Off?" Is Rarity just hallucinating or is Pinkie actually saying that?

I think something more subtle than that. Someone like that FS would be ostracized and shunned in no time. You need someone who can fit in, who can get close to you with your defenses low, hurt you or make you hurt yourself, and come out of it smelling of roses, so that not even the victims know what he did or his intent, ready to strike again.

The mane cast was acting fairly strange. More uncouth than usual if you ask me. I don't remeber AJ doing any gardening at the Gala. It's like Machiavelli's Prince, twisting and slightly misrepresenting the characters' actions for the sake of argument, telling a story differently for the sake of an Aesop. Something there has been too much of in this season, as of now. The first season served to define characters and fill in the blanks left by the opening. This should constrain this season to only work on the blanks that are left, or build upon what was drawn, not twist and bleach it for the sake of one-off jokes and lessons.

Twilight dancing horribly was very heartwarming though. She's really outgrown herself.

So I come back to the thread, and its got creepy again... Even though i'm not even sure what a Corinthian even is.

Pinkie might just really like telling that story and was doing it to pass the time. Twilight seemed to have heard it before at the beginning of Griffon the Brush Off.

I wouldn't say the Corinthian fits in. Doesn't he scare everyone he comes across (with the possible exception of the sort of serial killer who attends a serial killing convention)?

The Corinthian

Well, of course not. That wasn't a garden party, was it?

Her stand was outdoors...

But the party was inside.

Hm. This Morpheus has the eyes wrong.◊

They got high on sugar or whatever gets ponies inebriated.

We still have about half a season before calling the whole season OOC. I don't disagree that the mane cast are a bit off, and it's especially jarring because this episode's writer is someone who has written several S1 episodes, unlike last episode's writer.

Note to self, draw humanized Twilight dancing badly.

Oh, and for the curious, I've decided to bite the bullet and draw Celestia and Luna, and not in my cartoony style either, I'm putting effort into this one. And it'll give my brain a break from thinking about the next round of questions.

Should I submit a progress report or leave it a surprise?

What the hell happened here?!

The thread was dead an hour ago when I left for my nan's!

What'd I miss?

Darkness happened, Gingy.

Of course I nary paid attention because I don't read Sandman.

@ginger: People woke up. It's morning-noon in US.

Realistic Celestia and Luna sounds interesting
