My Little Pony VII: The Grand Galloping Thread

Twilight Matte came out vaguely Asian. Not entirely sure why.

She's originally from the areas of Russia inhabited by Mongols or Tatars.

I...

I'm living in a strange world... where otherwise cool and awesome people actually LIKE David Tennant!

I'm... I feel so cold and alone now...

* Ironic echo of a comment from a few weeks ago! Not meant as an insult!

It's a sign that everything is returning to normal in the universe.

... I am legitimately confused by all of this shipping. I simultaneously don't want to participate and am curious about who people would ship me with. This doesn't mean "write paragraphs of shipping about DBC." This just means "names."

DBC/DBC/63!DBC.

Also, I recall I owe somepony a review from earlier in the week. Fanfiction review, that is. However, there's too many pages to go slogging through it. Just know that I have the day off, so now is the time to have me review stuff.

MEMEMEMEMEMEMEME

Ahem. If you have the time...?

[Welf]

Wait, you found the rest of the Pinkie Pie weapon set? AWESOME!

I'm watching the artist on Deviant Art. He writes an series about the Ultimate Pinkie Party.

The old favourite still wins out, though.

Meh. Every weapon that needs to be fired to make an impression is not awesome enough.

I know I'm neither cool nor awesome, but I also liked Tennant. He did well in the role, and provided an endearing sort of manic energy to the whole process. And I say this as somepony who can only handle The Doctor in extremely small doses.

There's two directions you can take it. Either

1) A joke got played up to its logical conclusion given the nature of certain members of our fine community to constantly one-up one another or

2) This is the first step in my conquest of terror to make everypony kiss. I am a twisted monster the likes of which makes even Nightmare Moon tremble with terror. All shall love me and despair, unless a plucky group of ragtag ponies comes along and deposes me in an epic battle probably taking place on a constantly shifting dreamscape. That sounds fun, right?

Also, if I were going to ship you, it would probably be with Irbis. Foeyay!

THIS EVIL PLAN MUST BE STOPPED!

Also, Raz, getting to reading. Amusingly, Braeburn/Rainbow Dash doesn't strike me as too weird.

I guess, in general, apple themed male ponies go well with most members of the main cast (well, I couldn't see Braeburn/Fluttershy. He'd keep scaring her by being loud).

And now this is one pairing easier.

Then it will be up to you, young hero, to conjure up the proper combination of pony drawings to soothe my tortured soul and transform me from this wicked form of dark and alluring power to something altogether more cute and hugable, probably in some terrific display of rainbows.

Er... that is, if you think you're up to the task! Hahaha! *cough*

Ooh, may I be an evil minion? I can be both comically inept and intimidatingly efficient! Please please please?

I dunno, I'd have to ask EsperDerek. By canon, he's my partner in all of this.

[darthbobcat]

Hm. Igor, what is the "weirdometer" reading?

IT DOESN'T GO UP TO 17. IT'S A 1 TO 10 SCALE. Stupid thing!

Sounds like fun to me! Truly, being on the side of darkness really is much more fun overall than being a good guy. Especially the part where we make everpony kiss. The best part is that we'll just end up as the ensemble dark horses and become arguably more popular than some of the mane cast if we do it right!

Sure, what the heck? We can always use a minion or two to kick aro-I mean, make use of.

Just don't point that thing at me! I've no idea what it does to Liches but I suspect it will involve lots of screaming and running around on fire.

Incidently, has anyone yet linked the hilarious MLP:FiM opening Team Fortress 2 style? 'Cos if not, I shall...

And as with all the more bizarre weirdness, like gender swapping, I will likely remain unaffected by the shipping. I'd prefer to remain out of it, honestly.

On, another note, I have the second part of the pilot on my DVR now, I'll finally be watching the show.

I thought it was quite clever (if yes, a bit jarring, but somehow I thought that made it funnier...)

Those are the grown up Gen 3 versions of the characters. Oddly enough, both Rainbow Dash AND Scootaloo were earth ponies back then. Or do I need to remind you of...

That's the G3 Scootaloo, according to the creator. It's part of a bigger comic strip.

So, odd request... Can anyone draw a My Little Simhata with a Dawn Caste mark for a cutie mark?

Sure, what the heck? We can always use a minion or two to kick aro-I mean, make use of.

I figure if we play our cards right, then one season thread after our inevitable defeat everypony will be referring to us in adoring, almost reverent tones and will bury us in an outpouring of fanfiction trying to justify our actions as being ultimately performed out of a misguided sense of love while pairing us up with all their favorite characters. It's a pretty cushy retirement plan.
