Except that doesn't work, it's characters "s" plural, "this" requires singular.

Epicly Loyal pagetopper.

Darrin....is The Equestrian Government. He holds the whole "artifact hunting thing" in contempt.

I vote for making Darrin Daring and Derring's father. And it's a running gag that he basically named his daughters the same thing because he wasn't sure about how "daring/derring do" is supposed to be spelled, so he split the difference.

I'm with JTeeth. And just a note; I'm not trying to keep you guys from having fun, I just think it's silly to get legitimately upset over it. =)

Can you think inside the chimney?

#91380 L Mage Thu, 9th Feb '12 3:03:58 PM from The Moon

What trope would it be if Celestia appeared in the books? I think No Celebrities Were Harmed might cover it. But I am unsure.

Mycroft Holmes is sorta what I was going for with Derring actually XD

@Seraphem: After the first Princess Cadence and Shining Armor toys were revealed

, SoSilver (the guy who originally gave the "*o** *r** **i* c***a***r*" riddle) said

:

TOYS FROM THIS CHARACTERS!

That's it!

Nothing about the tv show, it was about the toy line^_^

Welcome Cadence and Shining Armor!

#91384 Mio Thu, 9th Feb '12 3:12:47 PM

I don't think that needed a riddle.

Well at least now I'm pretty certain that either the season finale or the next season premier will have to do with them.

I'm adding a few plot summaries to the Daring Do page. I'm leaving it vague so we don't have to worry about consistency too much.

Least he could do is get it right. You can't use 'this' and a plural, it should have been "these characters".

Cadence is a musical term... means rythm or measure/beat... rythmic flow. She could be in charge of the seasons or the flow of time or something.

#91388 Mio Thu, 9th Feb '12 3:15:57 PM

Something tells me show won't actually be in charge of anything.

#91389 Emidawg Thu, 9th Feb '12 3:17:21 PM

Probably right... Im imagining the whole wedding is just to sell toys. But from a Fanon perspective... I like the idea.

Im looking forward to getting the playset as well.. if only to have a male pony to customize. I can only hope this means there will be more male playful pony sized ponies... I want to do a Dexter Morgan custom pony and it just wont look right without the square jaw.

JT, can you please add one called Daring Do and the Candle Cove?

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

#91391 gingerninja 666 Thu, 9th Feb '12 3:22:40 PM from Aboard The Damocles

And a synopsis about Daring being forced to team up with her aloof sister

I'm no good at writing these things

Are you going to fill out all sixteen JT?

I was hopping to add a few myself....>.>

#91393 Japanese Teeth Thu, 9th Feb '12 3:33:34 PM from Meinong's jungle

Nah, I only put 8 up, like 6 of which were already mentioned on the page. The only ones I made up myself were Shrine of the Silver Monkey and Curse of the Yeti. You guys are free to add the other 8. Only thing I can say about it is that Temple of Nightmare Moon, Legacy of Nightmare Moon, and Shrine of the Silver Monkey need to be consecutive, in that order, and near the end of the series, because the trope entries for those interlink and rearranging it would throw things off.

#91394 gingerninja 666 Thu, 9th Feb '12 3:35:57 PM from Aboard The Damocles

Yeah, I had a synopsis in mind too. but you've already got Derring covered.

Daring Do and the Trials of Unity: Daring-Do is forced to team up with her estranged older sister Derring-Do in order to retrieve a treasure that can only be discovered by siblings.

#91395 storyyeller Thu, 9th Feb '12 3:36:59 PM from Appleloosa

By the way, I think we should try to keep the page in-universe, so potholing to human media like Legends of the Hidden Temple isn't a good idea.

Well, toss it up there, then.

@Storyeller: Fine fine, we can axe the pothole. I still like having that shout out in there, though.

You already have one about her sis though

#91399 Seraphem Thu, 9th Feb '12 3:39:12 PM from Delamare

So? Sure she appears in more then one book, and that one is about competition between them, seems right to have one that's the opposite.

#91400 gingerninja 666 Thu, 9th Feb '12 3:40:52 PM from Aboard The Damocles

The point is that sibling rivalry gets in the way of them completing the trials correctly though. They obviously get the treasure in the end, so if one of these stories sorts out their issues then there can't be another
