Eh, I was, sort of joking. Should probably have potholed.

Ah, well. That makes a bit more sense, then.

Now I'm going to find out what changed in TF 2 after that "Friendship is Trading" update (probably noting usefull because I can't trade :P)

Because he know I'm going to go out in this plane and I'm going to remove one of His creations from His universe.

Flim/Twilight shipping

If you ever write that I'm going to be the first person to comment on the story, with "STILL BETTER THAN TWIXIE."

Will you make that comment if I ever get around to writing my Applejack/Twilight story?

Perhaps. It is, after all, still a better pairing than Twixie.

Personally, I think that Kegi's idea for Flim/Twilight sounds intersting. I want to read at least to see how it turns out. I actually like crack pairings despite my confusion as to why certain pairings are so popular.

It may very well be the next thing I write. I kinda feel like doing something simple and cute and fun... and the thing I'm working on right now just doesn't feel good to me. I do not like it.

#192336 Pannic Sat, 12th May '12 1:03:43 PM

Flim/Twilight is a ship for their reason and only this reason.

And don't doubt I will take every opportunity to have him call her 'Madame Librarian'.

Thread's dead.

Is it Flim that is shipped with Rarity or Flam?

STILL BETTER THAN TWIXIE

HERESY!

Hello again, everyone.

@Pannic: So what hypothetical pairing would be worse then Twixie?

I'm sure that Zecora/Angel Bunny would be a terrible idea.

The Eleventh Doctor is cool.

Angel/Philomena.

Twilestia.

Twiluna.

I updated my tumblr with my thoughts on Bridle Gossip. Swarm of the Century will probably be up tonight.

Flam is the one Rarity swooned at, I think.

As for worse than Twixie... hmm... not sure... I usually go with "incest doesn't count." I put Rarity/Blueblood and Rainbow Dash/pegasus bullies on about the same page (though there was one fairly cute Rainbow Dash/Hoops picture, but still, principles, dammit!).

#192348 Perpetual Lurker Sat, 12th May '12 1:49:51 PM

While I don't exactly like shipping, I believe that nearly anything outside the obvious taboos like incest could be done well if the proper steps are taken. For example, even seemingly incompatible ships like Twixie could be made to work so long as there is proper development to that end. You would need to write an entire fic's worth of material just to get to that point, IMO, but it could be done and not be bad.

#192349 Japanese Teeth Sat, 12th May '12 1:50:48 PM from Meinong's jungle

Yeah, that's definitely true. Just about anything can be done, it's just a question of how much work it takes to get it to that point.

In my opinion, Gilda/Pinkie still makes more sense than Twixie.

And honestly, I don't get the popularity of Caramac either. If I was going to ship Big Mac with a stallion, Caramel would be pretty low on the list. I got the impression that he didn't get along well with the Apples.

EDIT:

Indeed. Any pairing can work. Doesn't mean that they all make equal sense. Also, I don't actively dislike any pairings, I don't think, but some make me incredulous with their popularity.
