I wonder if she'll have a different job everytime we see her. If we take her performance in "Feeling Pinkie Keen" as an example, she doesn't seem to be good at delivering stuff, and I can imagine her being so accident prone that she gets fired from every job she signs up for

If they do that a few more times then we could have a mini-CMOA in the background of the Season 2 finale where we see Ditzy actually doing well at her current job [lol]

[up]Or she could be doing okay at all her jobs, but the mane cast keeps inadvertently doing things that get her fired without realizing what they're doing. She could be like that guy from Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, except with being fired instead of getting killed.

[up] Yeah, that would be cool. Kinda makes the cast looks like dicks though, even if it is unintentional

Again, as long as there's a moment in the finale or something where we see her succesfully doing a job, it'll all be worth it [lol]

[up] x3 A montage of her failing repeatedly at her old jobs would be pretty funny. And a little bit sad.sad

P.S: After I saw this:

[1]

I've IMMEDIATELY decided what to do next fic wise, because it's been a while. Boars as Warhammer Fantasy style Orcs in the land of Equestria. Oh, God yes.

Has anyone read the fanfic Transcendence?

zerky checked it out because it made star 6 and was surprised to find that it was filled with mind-boggling amounts of purple prose. There's a decent story in there if you can sift through all the excessive descriptions, but holy jeeze. This passage in particular:

"The wind swept through Scootaloo’s mane as she flew just above the treetops, tailing her prey with an insatiable zeal. Her muscles ached with fatigue and the growing buildup of lactic acid as her metabolism switched to anaerobic respiration."

made zerky think that the author has to be trolling.

Is it strange that I think "Stoneface" would be the funniest name for her?

Actually, according to one animator she was actually called "Stoneface", along with "Bubbles" and "Ditzy" in studio.

That sounds excellent. Please write it.

Have you ever read imposition? It's the purplest of prose, man. The purplest.

[up] Will do.

They'll be just as crazy awesome too. Oh god I'm excited!grin

And I could tie them in with my cutie knights that have been sitting on the proverbial self.

But, I digress. Back to Ditzy!

Over written. Using the largest and most obscure terms possible for simple things. Imposition is a good example of it.

Ok, I thought of an idea for a Ditzy episode. Twilight needs to send a letter to Celestia urgently, but Spike is sick/away, so she has to rely on Ditzy to deliver the message.

[up] and rather than her own idiocy getting in the way, a never ending string of bad luck befalls Ditzy on her journey [lol]

[up] I have this image in my mind of Celestia about to do something bad, and Ditzy crawls up the castle stairs and says "Letter!"
