A thread to discuss My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic and the tie-in media.
All of the usual forum rules
apply. In addition, please remember that the thread is discussing a kids' show, and it's primarily focused on the work itself, not the fanfic — in particular, we don't want to see lewdness creeping in.

Oh dear. Dashie, spitting in your princess's face is still a hanging offense in Ponyville.
Sweet Celestia, she's actually getting physical withdrawals. Maybe she just hollows out the books and uses them to store cocaine.
Twilight is also stalking the author. But not enough to know she's actually Daring Do OMG SPOILER

Doesn't colonization refer specifically to someone else moving into your territory and claiming ownership? Colony, and all that?
Tends to be a pretty european passtime, that.
Birthright: an original web novel about Dragons, the Burdens of Leadership, and Mangoes.I'm next for the fan fic, I think.
Or was that Dark who wanted to go next?
http://h0useb0und.tumblr.com/Wow. If anything, Dash is sounding even more stalkery than Twilight. I'm reminded of this comic.
The team apparently ascribes to the Indiana Jones / Bil Keane school of navigation.
Oh fuck, her house is almost as big a mess as mine.

THE DASHFACE RETURNS /)o3o(
The combination on her super-book is 000. Dammit. Someone change the combination on my luggage!
"Oh thank God. My mint-condition replica of the Stalliongrad Hula Tournament trophy is safe."
Also she's being attacked by the mafia. Just a guess, but they were probably former archaeology companions who suddenly but inevitably betrayed her to work for Nazis.
Their special talents appear to be unusually-colored explosions, swearing, and asking questions loudly.

And now Twi and Dash are having a swordfight with their nerdboners.
Oh lord, it's Pony Belloq.
Hmm. Daring Do is awkwardly dropping an exposition bomb. I'm suddenly less stoked to read her books.
You'd think if Cavalleron was real, and the books are explicitly casting him as a villain, he'd probably have put together a libel charge and sued Yearling into...oh wait, her home can't really look any trashier.
Why is a pegasus being held up by a bum hoof? :S
And why is Fluttershy the first one to try and step in?
Aaaaand NERDBONERS ON DISPLAY. WATCH THEM SWAY IN THE WIND.

Well, that's a good mental image to end my night on...
Birthright: an original web novel about Dragons, the Burdens of Leadership, and Mangoes.Didn't Dark just give up entirely?
Blind Final Fantasy 6 Let's PlayDash punches herself in the face. Not pictured: traumatic dislocation
◊ (warning: gross but not real) because she has fucking hooves.
And again. And again. If anypony asks, she fell down the stairs.
So I can't help but think of this as Dash trying to Mary Sue herself into the story. It'll probably end with her banging Daring Do.

"This is your chance to impress her with your quick wit and courage. HEY DARING DO! WONDERBOLTS BOLTS RAINBOW DASH WONDERBOLTS DASH DASHIE DASH BOLTS!"
Huh. I get the feeling Daring Do is used to villains with exceptionally poor eyesight. Then again, I guess my beard looks like a malignant plant growth if I let it grow out, so maybe not.
Oh good heavens that face is going to be a meme and a half.
SHIT. Not the kitten! I think Ahuizotl is just a front. That kitten is in charge of the whole thing.

He's a makeup artist. They can get pretty nuts with that stuff. I assume that's just something in his portfolio.
Daring Do just punched out a panther with her injured hoof.
Urgh. Dash is falling back into Season 2 lamesauce. Kidding aside, this is kinda painful. I'm seriously expecting her to yell "lemme at em! I'll splat em!"
What have you done? The opposite of most of your development.

"In every Daring Do book there's always more going on that meets the eye. Also the villains always die in the most creatively horrifying way the writer can think of."
"Okay, all you minions, tap your spears to the BGM."
"What BGM, sir?"
"Fuck."
You can't just pull the rings off! You have to go through an elaborate sequence of moves that takes 580 billion years.
That'd actually be a hilarious twist. Ahuizotl steals the last ring to destroy the world with a heat wave, but to actually put it on the pedestal he has to move 63 Hanoi disks, put it on, then move them all back. 580 billion years later, he gets a few centuries of heat wave, but nobody notices because the earth has been long since consumed by the sun.

No it's actually the dog.
Blind Final Fantasy 6 Let's Playinb4 her newest book gets panned horribly for introducing an obnoxious new partner who cocks everything up and not focusing enough on her more intelligent and compelling supporting cast. Also violent shipping wars between the Daringlight and Daringdash factions.
Meh. That episode had potential, but Dash was way too obstructive. I feel like it would've been better if her "get in the way" phase lasted about a third as long as it did, and the rest of the time added to her actually kicking ass with Daring Do.
So wait, if Dash dyes her coat like Daring Do, and they make out, is that ship called Do-Do?

Colonization by Europeans, presuambly.
