Nah, Horse is just much easier to put in a harsher, more "I Challenge You" tone than Pony.
If I were to point my finger at you and say "I challenge you to a match, -", would the blank at the end sound more badass with "Horse!", or "Pony!"?

Not like I used to play Melee, but yes I do. I have some kind hipster reasons (hitbox size, nerfs and buffs, etc.) for liking melee more than brawl, but brawl is pretty fun. The saddest thing about playing brawl is that the new items are so cool that I feel like I am missing out when we play without them, whereas with melee I never wanted items at all. Final Smashes are the coolest looking thing ever.
Possible? Yes. Likely? No. Also, I just realized that MLP ponies are tiny. Assuming the mouse-horses are horse sized, an MLP pony is like knee height.
...I didn't say I lost.

Vampire Space Princess Bleakmane (And entirely Original Character), and her second in command Joyreaper, have powers over shadows (and mirrors) and live on an ancient fortress which is also a space station and vampiric in it's own right. It's called the Darkspire.
Appearing via shadow-form is easier, safer and quicker than bothering to show up in person.

Bleakmane may or may not be wearing the old Metal Mask as chest-armour.
I did post some backstory, once or twice, but haven't time to find the link.

If you can feel pain in your hands from video games, you haven't played enough.
That point aside, I have to go to work in 16 minutes. I am willing to risk being late to my job to ask if you might Brawl with me later, no matter what the conditions, items, stages, whatever.
YOU HAVE TO DO IT! WE MUST BRAWL! THERE MUST BE BRAWL! I CHALLENGE YOU! PIKAAAA!

Sending him to space? Same end result since once he's free he just returns home.
Keeping him in the royal gardens? Serves as a reminder of who he is and how to beat him when he returns.
To paraphrase a fictional Eris "My body is just a lie I tell the world."
I think the big disconnect there is you all are seeming to assume that Discord is narratively invincible and impossible to permenantly get rid of.
I am not.

And, come to that, Royal Guards = less use than Stormtroopers. Only in fanfiction have the ever displayed anything even distantly passable to competance...

I don't think I've ever beaten Mario 1. As a kid I always had cooler games, and as an adult I don't have a Nintendo. Ah well.

Perfectly acceptable. Like all biases however, I ask that you view it in terms of something you don't like, not something which is inherently "bad". And if you ever come to terms with it, I would like to discuss it.

Horse is actually a terrible pejorative. It's too breathy. Pony has many inflections, with different ways to emphasize it.
And that's a trick question. Ask a question were the best answer is not pony, and we'll answer it.

Re: My Little Pony LI: FE
And..and another thing!
Two of these deaths are at the hands of changeling venom! Changeling venom?!
Sorry, did I miss that memo? Since when did Changelings have venom!?
I mean, yeah, once is forgivable, it's just a one-time thing, but it shows up as a deus ex machina twice? In the space of TWO DAYS?
Changeling venom? Really? An incurable, 100% lethal poison that works only days after the fact?!
That.. so stupid...it doesn't...!
Why would even have that?! They're not hunters! They feed off love! Why would they need something to kill the things they feed off? And not only that, but really inefficiently, so it's not even any use as a purely defensive weapon! Even leaving aside the fact that creatures that have venom, as opposed to poison, are almost invariable predators!
That's not even cows-that-breath-fire daft, that's cows-that-spit-weedkiller! Not cartoon weedkiller that instantly disintegrates plants, but your actual Weedol or something, your actual translocatory systemic herbicide that takes, like a week to function!
And you know what,in concert with the Discord thing, it also occurs to me: why is it My Little Pony is the only fandom I'm part of that seems to delight in killing the mane/main characters off more frequently (often just for the sads) than the actual bad guys?!
And I read Naruto fanfiction! About ninjas!! Who kill people!!!
Seriously, how many times have you read about Celestia or Twilight or Rarity or someone karking it, compared to Discord getting killed in the flippin' face for once?
(And don't give me that nonsense about "chaos is indestructible" nonsense - this ain't 40K (thank frack); if the Sun Goddess can get knobbled on a semi-regular basis (even in fics where she is the sun goddess, not just a powerful pony), invulnerable Discord is utterly indefensible!)
Raaaaaargh!!!

Re: My Little Pony LI: FE
A look back, to see things that made sense at the time, we swear.
A unicorn decides to share her family cupcake recipe. She is then mutilated and her organs removed.
Several peasi and unicorns are shoved into a box. The one that takes up the most room is tied down and gagged with a hanky. Everyone leaves with a bondage fetish. One still lacks an eye.
Lyra begins to see tiny ponies runnin aroun telling we nonsense. Her shotgun gets an AI upgrade and decides to run away with a rivet gun, promising to send her saucy letters home about their honey moon.
Metal mask is banished to the moon by Odin Allfeather, until e can prove his mastery of that emotion called love. A young teenaged adventurer dresses up like Natalie Portman and makes out with him, warning his freedom.
A polite conversation over tea is interrupted by landmines and then everyone is turned into a sexy genie.
Am I missing anything good?

Re: My Little Pony LI: FE
I have made a conscious decision.
I am now going to ignore any and all established fanon. Ever. I still have my ships, but I will from now on ignore any "commonly accepted" fan ideas.
Dinky is not Derpy's daughter
Lyra and Bon Bon are not a couple
Dr Whooves is not a Time Lord.
I am ignoring it all.
I'm going to think up my own ideas and my own concepts.

Re: My Little Pony LI: FE
Rainbow Dash is asexual. All her friends think she's probably gay, because he never they giggle vet colts in magazines she wants to just go fly. But she doesn't really get what all the fuss is about.
"What, Rainbow Dash? Haven't you ever... You know... When you're alone ?"
"What? Haven't I ever wha-- oh! Eh. Once, back in flight school. Way too messy to be fun though... Coach suggested it as a way to calm down after a stressful season. Lame."

You are not going to think up your own ideas, because we've got a whole thread of people to help with this! *turns to the thread at large* Am I right? I saaaaaid... Am I right?
Anyhow, I posit that Lyra and Bon-bon are seen together so often because Lyra provides the live music at Bon-bon's cafe. Spending as much time together as they have, they've become fast friends.

Re: My Little Pony LI: FE
My own personal favourite idea:
Scootaloo is Big Mac's daughter and thus Applebloom's niece.
There are two flavours of this:
First, she is Derpy's daughter from a one-night stand or a quick fling that the two had and he has no idea about here.
Second, and this is good for irony and or drama in Flutterdash fics, she is actually Fluttershy's daughter, who was then put up for adoption. (I personally don't like this one because I feel that the Mane Six are a bit too young for that.)

Eh, coming up with stuff is fine, breaking with convention is also fine from time to time, but if an idea is good then it's good even if it's commonly accepted already.
Everything to a point, is what I say. If you like an idea, use it, don't come up with something different just to be different, do it because it's cool or works better.
But that's just my opinion, and I really shouldn't get into another big argument because I have a story to write and I keep finding excuses not to :smallredface:

Really, this is more to foster a discussion- what ideas do you think are interesting that don't fit the general fanon of MLP?
I am, however, going to ignore the fanon in general for one simple reason: I should have an idea because it's a good idea, not because it's one that's widespread. There's a correlation between an idea being good and it being widespread, but I'm not going to go with general fanon if I have another idea.

Re: My Little Pony LI: FE
Having seen another Celestia-is-Twilight's-real-mother story (in this case, more of a polite take that to said stories from Device Heretic of Eternal fame), and bearing my mind the old Mommy Nearest (wherein Rainbow Dash was revealed to be Celestia's daughter), let's take this chain of thought to it's logical hilariously stupid conclusion:
I thus postulate new fanon that Celestia is everypony's mother, for increasingly contrivied and silly reasons, up to and including Luna.
And Spike, who is actually Twilight's father in the future, when he and Celestia sent her back in time to be raised.
This is especially ironic, as Spike is also Twilight's daughter from another time in the future she and Celestia got experiemental with draconic shapeshifting that one time, and also sent back in time...
Rarity's mother is Celestia in disguise, Applejack's parents were Celestia, and, I dunno, Granny Smith and some more experimental gender-swapping, Derpy is Celestia's daughter with, I dunno, a magical sentient muffin or something.
Twilight's "parents" are the children of Celestia and Cadance and Celestia and Shining Armor respectively. In turn, Cadance is obviously the daughter of Pinkie and Celestia, and Shining Armour is Rarity and Celestia's daughter, because Celestia really likes that gender-changing spell...
I could probably go on, but a) it's probably better if I don't and b) why spoil the fun for the rest of you...!

Too young? Have you wee grown up on a farm? Can't leave kids alone for two minutes without them "wanting to try out what them horses are doing"!
I like it because it's a weird triangle. FS puts Scootaloo into a home because she can't handle the stress, and doesn't tell Dashie because she is worried that it would drive a wedge between them. Rainbow Dash plays the big sister role well, accidentally being a surrogate parent anyway.
All it takes is Fluttershy being a paycho anime chick, and I could work. Well, tha and Big Mac being loose.

I'm all for coming up with new ideas, both silly and serious. We certainly like coming up with ideas around here, although most of them probably don't live very long :smallsmile: But there's nothing wrong with using the general fanon either.
Personally I do very much like or even prefer some of the general fanon ideas and ships

Rarity's mother is Celestia in disguise, Applejack's parents were Celestia, and, I dunno, Granny Smith and some more experimental gender-swapping, Derpy is Celestia's daughter with, I dunno, a magical sentient muffin or something.
Twilight's "parents" are the children of Celestia and Cadance and Celestia and Shining Armor respectively. In turn, Cadance is obviously the daughter of Pinkie and Celestia, and Shining Armour is Rarity and Celestia's daughter, because Celestia really likes that gender-changing spell...
I could probably go on, but a) it's probably better if I don't and b) why spoil the fun for the rest of you...!
I'm pretty sure I've read a fic similar to this. I can't remember if it was a dream sequence or alternate reality or whatever, but it involved Spike revealing that he was actually Celestia in disguise the entire time.

I think the hilarity outweighs any such potential and any squick, if anything, makes it funnier.
(Remember the Aotrs golden rule of shipping: it's not a bad ship if, when surprise-revealed, it causes at least one member of the observing group to spitake, gape with horror and squick and/or curl up into a fetal position...)

Nonstandard fanon? Hmm....
I've always got this one on standby: Scootaloo has both her parents, they're just earth ponies and thus never taught her to fly. The scooter is a way that they still can still have fun together, even though they don't all have wings.
Zecora: She's actually set to become a rather important zebra in her tribe back home. She's currently on a coming-of-age/training quest. The rhyming is either a self-imposed limitaiton, or some spirit guide forces her to speak in riddles to be mindful of what she says. (All pretty much lifted from a great fic whose name escapes me right now. Shaman, maybe?)
Anything else I'd have to think a bit more on.
Twilight goes to visit the Medic:

I wasn't aware of this rule. I will note it down for future reference.

Perhaps I haven't specifically stated it, but it's sort of implied in my stance that the best use for shipping is as a comedy goldmine, which I have said before.

No, I think that was more because he just likes shooting lasers at people. Or objects. Anything that enters his field of view, really.

you know how someplaces have sandwiches named for famous people?
somehow my mind got to thinkin about sandwiches named for Discworld characters...
The Vimes: BLT..2 varieties
--Bachelor: LOTS of bacon, 2 tomato slices, 1 piece lettuce
--Married: 3-4 varieties of lettuce, 6 tomato slices, 2 bacon slices
Foul Ol Ron: grilled limburger + another stinky cheese
Carrot: head cheese...just seems like something a dwarf came up with
Angua: BBQ Tri-tip
the Black Ribboner: Portabella Mushroom
the Cpl Nobbs: Scrapple...since no one really knows what it is 8)
the Sgt Colon: Fried Bologna..simple common meat for the simple common man
the Dibbler: a sausage sandwich
the Rincewind: some sort of chicken sandwich
Luggage Legs = hot wings
the Wee Free Men: a shrimp po`boy
I'd think you'd need two different versions for Angua, one vegetarian (her human side) and one stuffed with meat (her wolf side).

Re: My Little Pony LI: FE
I have acquired new pony toys! The new three-pack sets arrived at Kohl's today, and with my employee discounts, I managed to get all three that are available for around $13. Interesting note: Gilda's wings are made from a flexible material.
