That post was one of the most Mood Whiplash-y things I've heard all day.

One: that fic sounds fucking disgusting.

Two: I'm now refering to these types of fics as Balsa!Dash fics

Yes... but not CONSTANTLY... or suicidally

...so AJ becomes Blight? Who would be the other horsewomen of the apocalypse?

Rainbow: War. Twilight: Death. Fluttershy: Plague. AJ: Famine. Pinkie: Chaos.

Poor Rarity.

I could send you a link if you like. Only the first part was out when I read it, so I haven't finished it.

Cheers, mate.

As well all know, Rarity is the precursor of extinction.

It's pronounced "Te-ah-low-ve"

Lets just say this fandom's relationship and views of Rainbow Dash are very odd and leave it at that.

Also, Bala!Dash fics? The hell?

Did you just reference what I think you referenced?

Pinkie Pie is War. And Death is a Pale Horse, so that can only be one pegasus we won't name.

Rarity isn't a Pegasus.

Pinkie as war makes more sense.

Pale horse ain't a white horse.

#86885 Mio Fri, 3rd Feb '12 2:02:36 PM

Conquest (the horse usually replaced with plague) is white.

Pale has implications of being sickly and decay. There is nothing about Rarity's coat that screams those things.

Can't get much paler than white.

Or can you? I'm not very good with arty stuff.

Got it.

@ Mio I assume he means Balsa!Dash, since there's so many fics where Dash breaks her wings, the joke is that they're made of balsa wood.

Cheers, mate.

The actual word in the passage in question can also be translated as pale green, but the basic intent is the connotations of a deathly pallor. In terms of actual color, grey would be the most appropriate choice. And we all know what that means...

Yeah, I meant to write Balsa.

That hobbit logic makes no sense. According to that, we would watch shows based on stallions, not ponies.

#86892 Whatshisgame Fri, 3rd Feb '12 2:12:14 PM

Eh, the Uverse synopsis have always been the least accurate when it comes to these things.

The new "Read It and Weep" synopsis isn't from U-verse; it's from The Hub's YouTube upload of the preview clip

. The U-verse synopsis is the "pension" one.

(Say, remember the Canadian live show, in which Rainbow Dash is unable to fly for an entire year because she had hurt her wings pulling an offstage "crazy stunt" the previous month?)

Also, another development on the Derpy front: Hasbro.com's latest temporary episode upload is "The Last Roundup", with Derpy intact!

I'm not sure when exactly they put it up, but I do remember that until just recently they had "Baby Cakes" instead.

Sounds like the copyright theory is correct then.

You know, I can't actually remember the name of it now. Terrible anime that wasted a perfectly good plot on fanservice fanservice and more fanservice.

So what's the whole controversy with Derpy again? I haven't heard the full story.

Cheers, mate.

#86896 storyyeller Fri, 3rd Feb '12 2:18:30 PM from Appleloosa

@CDRW

Nope, I'm referencing the fact that "Rarity is the precursor of extinction" is the top Google result. Unlike all the other ponies, where the top result is "X is best pony".

^ We Love Fine temporarily renamed all their Derpy merchandise, and The Last Roundup was taken off iTunes.

Oh, I missed that. Has the Hub itself ever put out synopsis before? I can't remember.

They have, I think. They just usually aren't any more detailed than the one(s) we get beforehand—this one is, though only slightly.
