Dose he ever come back?

Sadly, not yet. There's still hope.

I think we got Smoke Screen a side job as a Royal Guard Reservist or something too. Might fly priority mesages to and fro, some non-combat role.

I'd envision him to be good at long-distance soaring, or flying while not having to beat his wings - riding thermals and updrafts, in order to minimize muscle effort, thus, he can fly for many hours at once.

Foil!Twlight's cutie mark should be a black shield with a crecent moon on it.

Big Rig should have a cart filled with logs

Pig Iron should have a hammer and anvil

Chuckles should have black berat

Check Up should have a shot needle

Don't really know for smoke screen...

Smoke Screen was also going to be somewhat Adorkable. I'm not certain what the current status of that is. Also, super confident when in uniform and nopony knows who he is. Not very confident when out in the open.

That sounds good. Also I had written this about Smoke Screen last night.

Smoke Screen is a member of the Ponyville Fire Department. He is very talented and is aware of this but he doesn't like to brag, or being the center of attention, or socializing much at all. Now he is typically a polite pony but he is so dedicated to his duty that he usually comes across as kind of aloof to other ponies. He has very little patience for other ponies foalishness, and can become quite snappish when he assumes ponies aren't taking a situation (any situation) seriously. He is also quite idealistic (I mean this in the old sense that he believes in ideals like honor, duty, bravery and such. The kind of stuff that annoys Check Up).

@PVT: I'm not sure that L Mage has gotten to season 2 yet, so he probably doesn't know about what Luna is really like.

Also, I sort of fall in the middle with Celestia; I think she's had friends in the past, but doesn't have any truly close friends at the moment because there are almost no ponies who interact with her on equal terms; most ponies she has regular interaction with are deferential. The reason behind that is that since she's been running everything herself, so she doesn't have much time for socializing.

She's probably happy to have her sister back both because she now has another pony she can relate to, and because with another pony to shoulder the burden of leadership, she can socialize with her subjects more.

I stopped at episode twenty or so and got sucked into the fandom, now I am fighting to break free and actually go back to watching....and failing.

Oh god. I can't wait for Mage to see Lesson Zero!

Fun episode.

Thoughts on Moonrise Knight as a name for Foil!Twilight?

@ L Mage

Big Rig had two tyre tracks for a CM,

Pig Iron has two crossed hammers,

Chuckles has two crossed juggling pins,

Check Up has a cross (white on red circle background, two colours)

See the patterns of two?

not bad.

Good night, people.

Nix the Knight surname. Moonrise Vigil, though...

Night folks, it's been grand.

Night tropers!

Wait, you're sleeping as well, Apple?

re: C Ms

Ah....I fails >.>

re: Name for Foil!Twili

I like Moonrise Vigil, I still say his CM should be a black shield with a crecent moon.

EDIT: Night guyts, see you tommrow (I'll be sticking around for a while yet however)

Smoke screen huh... you guys know there's an Autobot with that name too, right? Come to think of it, I'm sure there are ponies and transformers who share names since lolhasbro.

...we're almost to the point in which we need a Foil thread just for all this stuff. World-Building...? New Media?

Yeah time for this thread to spawn another sublet out.

We're certainly keeping up with the pokemon and touhou thread clusters this season.

I don't think I could handle bouncing back and forth between threads

I like sticking to just one or two thank you very much

Then again, all this OC talk isn't really fair for the posters who don't want to hear about it

Deal with it.

...speaking of, I haven't felt any icey waves of negativity all night, usually get a few of them, wait...where's Death?

Also, with all the stuff we could tangent into, might as well just create a whole sub-catagory just for all things pony.
