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.

I don't know WHAT the Hell happened (I blame shenanigans) but we're going to start from scratch. Post your feels for this awesome show again! Naow!

In order to establish Derpy and Dinky, Derpy would have to actually appear, and she hasn't appeared since.... Magic Duel? (Though she was in Equestria Girls.) I think she's banned or something.

Wow, Hussie is finally wrapping it up?
What's odd is that the latest section—where Hussie hit the pause button and announced he would finish the story as a single huge update—doesn't feel at all like a wrapping-up point. It's just like the rest of Act 6, introducing just as many (if not more) dangling plot threads as it resolved.

In order to establish Derpy and Dinky, Derpy would have to actually appear, and she hasn't appeared since.... Magic Duel? (Though she was in Equestria Girls.) I think she's banned or something.
Derpy had four or five cameos in "Magical Mystery Cure". In one of them, she looked directly at the fourth wall and winked.

"Well, what are their interests in your fic? What are their personalities—or rather, what self-image are they trying to project to the world? Also, is there any sort of motif you're trying to make the chumhandles follow (e.g. how the kids' and trolls' abbreviations were all DNA base pairs)?"

I'm still working on that part. At this point, Apple Bloom is an industrious young girl following in her older siblings' footsteps, Scootaloo is still working on her singing and her magic, Scootaloo is a mini Rainbow Dash (or at least she's trying to be), Twist is obsessed with food, Rumble is the smart, quiet guy, and Dinky is an adventurous archer.

As for a motif for the chum handles, how about M L P F I?

I think Twist's handle should include either Mint or Peppermint. Any ideas?

Dinky is notably the only background filly to appear during the ending parade if I recall correctly.
No, at least a few other ones are also there.

Since you have six characters, M L P F I M would be a fine motif for their chumhandles.

Twist could be peppermintAvenger. Applebloom: malusAscendant? (Malus being the genus containing domesticated apples and crabapples.)

Well the avenger part sounds... odd. Twist doesn't really have a reason to avenge anything.

At the moment, the handles are produceMarketer (Apple Bloom), infinitePotential/infinitelyPretentious (Scootaloo), fancifulMuse (Sweetie Bell), meteorologicalPhenomenon (Rumble), and I've got nothing for Twist or Dinky.

I kinda like the Malus idea though.

Not sure where you got pretentious from for Scootaloo.

I dunno, it's just something that came to mind. I don't really like that one either.

Are there any syllable or letter restrictions? I know a lot of Homestuck stuff has hidden patterns like that.

@Yeller: I'm sure she'd love it... pardon the pun.

Thinking of it, if she does come over here, who's going to supply her with the love she needs to subsist?

Homestuck

I've been reading through the post-scratch pages this week. I'd pretty much left it off there because I didn't want to just start over with new protagonists, but once I realized it was just adding to the cast I figured I might get back into it. And work isn't exactly intense now, so I've got the time...

Wow, we are moving slow today.

As for the Homestuck titles and such- yeah, I decided to go with M L P F I.

Also I thought up a good one for Apple Bloom- benevolentMalus. But, that doesn't fit the pattern. I need a synonym for benevolent.
