People are idiots, what else is new.

Did Wind Rider kind of remind anyone else of Lighting Dust in terms of personality? I don't know, there's something about him that seems pretty similar to her.

I just realized...

Being hit with an ice beam would REALLY hurt.

What would an ice beam even be? Would it just be a fast moving rod of ice? Yeah, that would hurt.

A beam made literally of ice would hit you like a freight train. Made of ice.

But I imagine it's more like a freeze ray than a beam of literal ice.

This "faculty lot" you speak of sounds like a place of great power...

If it was a freeze ray, I'd imagine it would have a greater than 10% chance of actually freezing things.

Then again, maybe it's a penetrating freeze ray, where the purpose is to freeze the target's internal organs. In the real world, this would kill pretty easily I think, but this is Pokémon, and Pokémon are all incredibly hardy.

Still remember Gen One anime where they implied as much as they could that trainers fighting Surge had critically injured Pokemon, human spirits were about as common as creepy Ghost Mons with death and lonelyness as major themes, and a slightly darker feel.

It might be overthinking, but I've always interpreted the first meta game as a commentary on mortality. The girl with the death Pokemon, Sabrina's illusions and lack of emotions, Ghosts counterbalancing the Psychics' mental manipulation as a link between mind and soul, and the sin against nature that was creating Mewtwo.

... which would have worked better if Ghosts actually countered Psychic.

that makes it sound like the sonic series is dead which i find absolutely hilarious

I think it's more specifically a spiritual successor to Sonic3.

I've heard Freedom Planet described as something the Sonic series might have done if it took off as a Sega Saturn or PS title, with enough detailed sprite animation and backgrounds while sticking to 2d.

I just had an idea I thought was cool.

Ponies getting their Cutie Marks is always a happy, celebratory occasion.

But what if a foal did something really evil, and then getting their Cutie Mark took on an ominous and wicked air.

My money would be on Featherweight.

I dunno, he seems pretty much destined for a Paparazzi CM. Which could be pretty evil, but not in the same way.

And now I'm going to bed.

You know what I'd like to see? The threat of the week showing up at Fluttershy's cottage and ripping Angel Bunny out of his hutch. Not to see him suffer- he seems to have left his worst days behind him- but so Fluttershy will show up, give the villain the Stare, and tell him to put. The bunny. Back in the box.

That reminds me, I once saw a funny fan comic where Angel tried to boss around Assertive Shy and ignoring her suggestion of what she was going to make for him. So then she flips the page to Rabbit Stew with an evil grin as Angel freaks out, and then the last panel is Angel crying while eating the original meal Fluttershy made for him. That really should have happend in the show.tongue

Hey, wasn't there a comic where Discord was looking for sugar for his tea? Then Luna told him he could find sugar in her room or something like that. It was... Funny, but I haven't seen it in months?
