If I ever get Team Fortress 2, I will only play on the Pony Servers.

If I remember correctly, I read somewhere on EQD that someone made pony Second Life skins.

I'm not really into Second Life myself, but still, that sounds like it might be useful for roleplaying and the like.

Aaand if someone I know in real life ever gets to know that I've been speculating about the possibility of using Second Life for virtual LAR Ping in the My Little Pony universe, I'll probably have to commit seppuku.

As amusing as the prospect is of Applejack sauntering up to a dragon 200 times her size and slaying it instantly by kicking it once in the shins, instakill with no checks is way, waaaay overpowered. Probably want to give a threshold for instant kill (ala Cloudkill) and just have everything else take a decent hit.

Also...YES.

I always thought I would never use a pony icon.

I thought wrong.

I think everybody who watches the show has that moment. You get used to it.

Yeah, but I was avoiding using one because too many other people were, and it was getting annoying how they were everywhere. Figured that I'd use screencaps from Sonic X and Tokyo Mew Mew instead.

And yet, here I am.

Damn, ponibooru has gotten addicting lately. I keep finding a bunch of awesome pictures, and thus I have to keep favoriteing them. Granted, I have most of the disturbing stuff filtered out, so that's probably one reason why I haven't kept away from the site.

I also wonder if there will be a fluttershy episode at some point in season 2. I hope that their is, and I also hope that after the big mac/cheerlie episode, that the CMC's stop stealing the spotlight from other the mane 6 for the rest of the season. Seriously, they've gotten too many season 2 episodes revolving around them.

Not yet!

If I ever capitulate though, I have a good idea of what I'd use.

Not yet either — I've been using this avatar for quite a while now, I've gotten used to it.

I can't get over how the Merch made Pinkie drive the Friendship Express. That would mean that she either quit her job at Sugarcube Corner and became an engineer or took up driving the Express as a second job.

Pinkie an engineer? That does not compute!

She can only do that if she rolls a Crit, and that's exceedingly rare. I'm still tweaking it, though. If my friend ever makes character sheets for them, I'll have a better idea of what's overpowered and what's not. Maybe I could add a stipulation that has to do with the size of the creature. No check for a creature the same size or smaller, +10 for every size teir larger or something... Nothing's set in stone.

She hijacked it.

STOP RIGHT THERE, CRIMINAL SCUM!

I fought parasprites more fearsome than you!

In their tongue, she is Hoovakiin...Ponyborn!

FUS RO yay

Aaand I'm out of Elder Scrolls references.

Go ahead. [fingerquote] Friend [/fingerquote] me.

This one is a bit overdone but what the hay.

I used to wonder what friendship could be...

Then I took an arrow to the knee.

~I used to wonder what unlife could be~
~Until you started devouring me~

Discord is a far better villain than Alduin, though.

I imagine Discord having a power form that resembles Ridley.

Discord + Ridley: Equestria is screwed

Equestria was already screwed with Discord alone; the only reason why they survived was because he got ridiculously careless. Which sort of goes with his portfolio, perhaps, though.

It's interesting that the fanon seems to be uniform in treating Discord as a Complete Monster.

I guess that that's what makes the character interesting — having him "redeemed" by the Elements of Harmony would be just silly — but it would be cool to see some Alternate Character Interpretations for him.

Word of God implies that there is another force behind Nightmare Moon and Discord...

This strikes a chord with me...

Season 3 - The Man Behind the Man

Exact quote or it didn't happen.

The often mentioned but rarely cited Faust-post about Luna actually says that Nightmare Moon's appearance was the result of dark magic, not Luna's heel turn.

Also, does it strike Dis Chord with you?

I loved how Applebloom acted as bi-polar as an actual kid would in this episode. I also don't get why people think Celestia is going to be so enraged by Applejack's letter. Sure it seems kind of boastful and deviates from the usual template and tone of the letters, but I still think Celestia is interested to hear about the most recent exploits/adventures of the mane six.

Oh, and I also liked how Rainbow Dash didn't hesitate to help produce cider faster than the brothers at the end of the episode, despite feeling like she was being mistreated earlier on.

I will admit, I was a little uncomfortable at how the "draconequus" appearance of Discord might be taken as a metaphor for "miscegenation" or similar stuff.

I am probably overthinking it, but still...
