the cat is just sittin there thinkin "hurry up and put those things on a shelf so i can make them disappear in the middle of the night"
Eh? I just said that the "Brushie Pinkie Pie" that's on the picture only has the Cutie Mark on one flank, only on one side. And that my fiancee is upset about that.
Your picture was... Yeah... that...
Yep. That sounds like Uriel (the cat).
Agreed; This people gives me a slight case of the creeps, a little darkness, a little peril, grief and sadness are expected for good stories, but sometimes it's just a little too much, even not cupcakes level, but... a little disturbing nonetheless.
Edit: On other news my Kickstarter packs arrived!! To Argentina!!
Doing the same. :smalleek:
Eh, I don't think it's warranted. Some people like ponies and grimdark and happen to think that those two flavours make a better flavour when put together. I (vehemently) disagree with the notion, but ultimately I'm not going to worry about or judge people for their tastes in fanfiction*.
*Usually. I mean, when it comes to ethics and human behaviours it is generally best not to speak in absolutes.
Heh, best zombies ever.
I wrote the dream part!
Well, he was a powerful magic user and was hardly what one would call "stupid". He might have a soul jar or two laying around.
Actualy, you dont seem very focused about the love of your life. Isn't the wedding supposed to happen next week?
Pffttthehehehe.
.....Is it bad that I found the last picture to be funny? Actualy, I dislike this series, because it trys too hard to be big and grand and ends up being a tangled web of plotlines.
What indeed.
I agree with the web of plotlines and trying hard. But, I still found myself cheering when they continued to find friendship no matter where they despaired. They saved Nightmare Whisper by being her friend, they broke Discords power over so many with Friendship and then walked them through the healing process that was needed.Quote:

you pretty much ripped that straight from this, didn't you. :smallannoyed:
Jalyrkieon opinion time again...

Heavy weapon trooper. (Really heavy weapon...) I was sort of going for a pose as if it was bracing, sorta, the weapon, but it just doesn't quiiite right, somehow (maybe I'm trying to be too clever...)
Thoughts?
That's actualy a plot point later. The changelings are slowly getting more efficiant in there mental attacks. It's basicly extending there hive mind into something else, rather then straight-up mental takeover.
The way the mouth is connected to the weapon is.....odd, if that means anything.
It looks wrong because it's not really braced itself. If anything, it looks like it has destablised itself. It looks unsure, like the first shot will send it tumbling backwards.
Horses putting their weight against something look very different.
Yeah. That's no fun.
Truth. It could be spelled Arra!namhmvgralor and still be pronounced shining armor.
Or it could be spelled Shining Armour and be pronounced "Kevin".
Well yes, see, if you do the math;
Now; games played? No. Games run? Yes
If agree; games played? Yes. Games run? Yes
It's a net gain for Everypony. :smallbiggrin:
I dot recall ever seeing a WoD corebook for old world of darkness though, which means there was no real unified rule set. You could be a vampire werewolf though, which was something even the black spiral dancers loathed conceptually. they did a terrible job of marrying the fluff across games in retrospect. Too many "correct" and provable cosmologies.
The trouble with playing a game Of Mage though, is its not going to be the game you are used to, in rules or in feel. You'll have to specify oMage. On the bright side, I recall there being a general world of darkness thread in gaming that became a recruitment center. You could find people willing to play ok Mage, and even find someone else to be ST. So there is hope for you yet!
I prefer Toki Pona :smallsmile:
Sounds legit
REVERE HIM FOR HE IS THE HOBO KING
AND YES YOU SHOULD WRITE MORE ;P
Oh look royal canterlot voice
Kitty! *pets the kitty*
Huh. Need to read that. I'm afraid the writing is going to be terrible, but I'd not I might enjoy it.
What what? *snerk*
[color="forestgreen"]... We aren't a hivemind. If we were, chryssie wouldn't have had to vocalise orders. Ever.
You will note from the position of the stand and the free floating stick, along with the shading on the muzzle and fun, that the gun and the Jalyrkeion arent physically connected. The gun is offset to the side and just happens to be captured from a Bleakbane Standard(TM) camera angle :smalltongue:Quote:
The way the mouth is connected to the weapon is.....odd, if that means anything.
That's just the viewing angle, the gun's actually not anywhere near the head.
Yeah, that!
Also, it doesn't help, that the CAD image is "coloured" by being assigned a material; i.e. properties of a material. My usual standard is something that basically is based on plastic, which I just made Citidel-paint-colours of, because it's the clearest for visibility for working on. What that means is, since I still really have no clue as to how to fiddle with the light sources, that the perception of distance is a bit screwy due to lack of shadows and such. Aaand, *skullpalm* it just occured to me I haven't yet remembered to use the full render mode for the Jalyrkieon images I've been posting (because it's ungainly for actually working on, unlike the preview render mode which that is), which actually does generate the shadows better, and would certainly have helped!
Aha.
Yep. Screwed that totally, then.
Was pretty sure I had done, mind, and I thought ponythread would be able to provide me with the relevant corrections.
Have another stab at that another day; probably tomorrow, got to get a shift on, I want to put my next order in before I go away at the end of the month. Still, not much more to go, on the infantry anyway, as the Jalyrkieons are going to in squads for four (between firepower and blagging armour and endurance a bit, essentially four-Jalyrkeion squad in two fire-teams of two will equate to a humanid squard or seven or eight in 3-4 man fire teams. (I've already got two walking (one with a rocket launcher, huzzah!) and a slightly rearing one (nominally squad leader), so Heavy Weapons Dude is the last one to go.)
Nice, Thanqol, you made it on to EQD again! Huzzah!
Thanqol's story is now up on Equestria Daily!
And the comment section is a bunch of people being hipsters and complaining about human-obsessed Lyra. Tell me, Thanqol, how does this make you feel?
I haveSpoilerread the deharmonizing ones through Applejack, but I was fairly annoyed at the writing style of the entries (like writing the accent...Blech). The Pinkie one kept making fourth wall breaking shout outs, and I finally gave up. The Rarity one was pretty good, and Rainbow Dash wasn't terrible, but the others were awful IMO. Interesting idea, but it was done better with the psychosis series (where all of them are being warped by their elements).
Yeah, dich this (all of it: the writings not getting better as it goes on) and pick up the psychosis series. Best origin story for Derpy ever.
Ahh, okay.Quote:

Actualy, I have to ask: have you ever considered opening up a thread on this site to dump some of your creations in a place where there not lost forever in the sands of ponythread? Like, perhapes a little link in your profile or something?Just a suggestion. MEEP.
SpoilerI have to agree that the writing style could use some work, my main interest was the plot, the nature of becoming a Nightmare, the ability of choice, and the showing of Discord as someone who wants to have fun, but is definitely the most twisted thing there.
And the fact Fluttershy washed out Fluttercruels mouth with soap while sharing the same body was kind of hilarious.
Might have also been the fact that Discord's mind altering powers actually did have a lasting effect that needed to be taken care of by talking through it that got to me. It just never sat right that it was pretty much the Memory Spell fixed everything.
The Kindest of Lies is coming for us all. Mama will keep us safe and happy forever.
Gotta remember to check back with this thread more often.
Just finished chapter 1. I'll get to the rest later, but so far this is turning out to be great.
SpoilerI'm loving your characterization of Bon Bon. She just works at Lyra's unwilling sidekick. Might explain why she's so abrasive sometimes. Was your idea for how magic works inspired by anything? Also?
“How’s your house?” asked the cashier as Bon Bon hurried past him yet again.
“Not dead yet, but it will be,” said Bon Bon.
That's just a brilliant exchange.
Aww. I don't know why she's having breakfast and painting, but I frankly don't care that much. :smallsmile:
And on top of it all, Applebloom finally got her cutie mark.
All that talk of Ponies & UFOs got me dreaming of it last night.:smallsmile:
It gave me quite a hard time getting up this morning as it felt more like I was watching a movie.
which is rather cool as it was a rather awesome pony movie dream :biggrin:
but rather uncool as I had the hardest time waking up from it:smalleek:
