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!

So... it looks like Spitfire's weakness as a person is that she tends toward getting results above all else, when left to her own devices. But at least when she's called out on something, she's quick to make amends.

She could probably use a second-in-command to keep her in check or something.

Post of the Day #675

@story ya really don't have to post that much (rolls eyes) Do you guys think there's an actual reason for the holes that changelings have in their legs?

Wow, I could tell instantly who that POTD was from.

Anyway, just had a bit of Frdige Brilliance. Ponies wouldn't normally use chairs, so it makes sense to specify it as a lion taming chair. This probably wasn't intentional though.

What does use chairs in that universe though? Surely they didn't design the chairs just to hurl at lions and giggle.

Lion tamers?

Edit: According to this the chairs were just for show and to actually provoke the lion.

Speaking of lion tamer chairs, the last time I remember seeing one of those on the show was in The Cutie Pox, where Apple Bloom temporarily used one when the disease gave her a lion-taming cutie mark. Too bad she didn't retain that ability, although that wouldn't have taken care of the other two heads. [lol]

By the way, I read the Round Robin fanfic and I actually thought it was well-written and coherent, and ended up having a plot that mostly tied together all the various elements that were introduced by the various people who added to it. It was weird, but not as nonsensical as it seemed to be hyped as being. It was kind of the Puni Puni Poemi of pony fanfics, and I could even see some parallels between the two. (as in, Puni Puni Poemi often also gets hyped as being "totally crazy" but I could see a coherent plot in that anime that I could follow when watching it, and for other reasons that would probably spoil Poemi and this fanfic) I'm also not sure what is okay for me to say specifically about it here, so to not spoil people who haven't read it yet, or if it even has its own thread that I should use to comment on more specific aspects of the story.

I feel bad that I didn't write more to it. I rushed, and now my chapter is practically nothing.

Doesn't seem that way from the way they treated him. He seems more like a relative rookie to the team.

Or the old guy that they all humor. Or he's just got a habit of being scatter brained and doing shit that makes them facehoof.

[up]Hey. Peoples' identities have been defined by a lot less.tongue

Really though, I do wonder if the team (or at least Spitfire and Fleet Foot) really don't like him that much to be so quick to replace him.

#56120: Mar 9th 2014 at 6:57:26 AM

The replacing, that's understandable, but the not visiting him.... yeah...

So, Soarin' is a veteran from the previous generation of Wonderbolts?
