ohey this thing I wrote a couple years ago makes even more sense than it did before Alicorn Day

[WheelsOfConfusion]

If you don't want to go with the immortal alicorn theory, a better one is that Princess Celestia has just been casting an age spell on herself to wait for the day her sister returns.

[Heretical Rants]

I prefer my insane crack theory that came to me in a prophetic dream two years ago

...




they wouldn't ever really have a reason to stop casting the age spell, though, would they


and Twi can totes learn it even if she couldn't cast it in that one ep.

and you can cast it on ponies other than yourself
and more extreme shapeshifting has been demonstrated(frog => sentient orange is more intense than internal organ => less terrible version of internal organ), so we know it doesn't have to just be superficial

in fact, they can probably cure any disease and heal pretty much any injury

but then why was Rainbow Dash in the hospital for so long
wait, I think there was a fanfic about that
a really shippy fanfic

hmmmmm






EDIT: fixed a thing because I am a derp

Thanks for the suggestions. I will try to get around to some of those soon~

Oh, and the episode with the Crystal Empire and that similarity to Crystal Tokyo in the Sailor Moon series reminded me of this: The people of the moon often could have life spans longer than 1000 years with the influence of the Silver Crystal. (For instance, in the manga, Chibiusa is 903). Celestial is totally the Goddess/Queen Serenity in my eyes, haha. I could definitely go on with intertextual conspiracy here....

I give you a short Derpy cartoon, featuring the honest to dog voice of Grey DeLisle in the title role!

This reminds me that I really need to put together some kind of "Ponies For Wolfaboos" tutorial. Not a day goes by that I don't see somebody's gallery and it's full of FiM ponies drawn with cartoon doggy traits. From the shape of the head to the pointed muzzles to the fluffy everythings, it's like they just don't know how to draw any other way.
A guide that points out the crucial differences between wolf/horse and cartoon dog/cartoon pony anatomy is sorely needed.

IDW has rather stealthily announced that they're ending the familiar micro-series that's focused on a different character for each issue. December's issue featuring LUNA! will be the last one of the run, according to the September solicitations. That's as far into the future as they go, so we just won't have any more information from official channels until next month.
But according to this interview with Ted Anderson (writer for the Pinkie Pie and CMC stories, plus most of the upcoming one-shot Equestria Girls annual), the company has other plans for that kind of one-off format to run concurrently with the arc-driven main series. The relevant bits are around 4:40, 22, and 33:17 minutes into the podcast if you want to skip all the fun stuff.
The solicitations for January should be out sometime next month, so we should know what they're planning to do by then. And it's probably not a new EQG series. The pony comics (main and micro-series) have been IDW's biggest sellers since their introduction, and sometimes were the only IDW titles to make the monthly Top 100 in Comichron. Not only is pony outselling Star Trek, Doctor Who, and Transformers, it's also outselling a ton of titles by Marvel and DC.

EQD's Newbie Artist Training Grounds Year 3 is finally done!
I managed to have something drawn and submitted every day for the past month, causing many late nights as the deadline was 3 am local time.
Guess I can kick back and relax now that it's over. What? The deadline for this week's ATG Alumni challenge is tonight at midnight? asdfpahsiodfu!

Attention fanfiction writers:

cut it out with the gratuitous quotes from the show

like

if every other phrase in your work that you've given special emphasis is a memeified catchphrase

then you're doing something horribly wrong

especially if the quote has been put into a completely new context and stripped of its original meaning

example:

[WheelsOfConfusion]

What if I just rewatch Magical Mystery Cure every day instead?
