My Little Pony VIII: Friendship is Music

[Grif]

And now we know why Nightmare Moon was reborn as the smaller, younger Nightmare Moon. She died, but used the one up she got for capturing Celestia and holding her in... wherever. The sun, perhaps?

Yep, the sun.

This. I shall use this in all my correspondence with Phoe.

Confound these ponies, they drive me to bondage!

I found this the other day when I was searching for the "welcome to the herd" pic.

Words that have lost all meaning through repetition:

-Pony
-Troll
-Bondage
-Up

THE TROLLPONY GETS BONDAGED UP: A Fic by Thanqol.

Trollestia, trollingest queen of Ponydom, found herself bored. Every day, it was the same. Raise the sun, up, up, up - then pretend to drop it on Equestria to troll the ponies - then pick it up and get Luna to carry it all the way to the horizon.

Luna could do with the exercise, after all. She was getting a bit porky. Maybe a heavier gravity planet would be a good banishment spot next time.

But she was bored. Her life was nothing but ponies, trolling ponies, and lifting the sun up. She needed something new...

And then her eyes fell on a four winged pegasus who was writing a story under a tree, minding her own business. Instantly an idea came to Trollestia. She didn't know why, or where it had come from, but she suddenly had an unstoppable urge to bondage that pony up...

Wait, so you're saying that finding an image that would be relevant in the future is inefficient?

[darthbobcat]

Thanqol, speaking of fics. Did you get a chance to work on the "Rainbow Dash Doesn't Know What Sex Is" fic?

[Mystic Muse]

So, I was bored today. To keep myself Occupied I did the one type of drawing I'm competent at. Tracing things in Inkscape. The original is on the right, the tracing is on the left. Couldn't get the cutie mark done.

I said competent, not good.

Considering that my search was to type "macro" into the search box on Ponibooru then sift through those manually until I located the one I was looking for, yeah, I'd call it inefficient. Besides:

[SiuiS]

Oh random page refreshes, you are my bane and nemesis. The annoying, reoccurring mid-boss of my life.

Let's try and redo all of that from memory, shall we?

PART ONE: WHERE SIUIS LEARNS THAT HE STILL NEEDS TO DRAW CIRCLES AND LINES TO CORRECTLY MAP PONIES
(or "I don't yet have the skill to freestyle those curves")

Spoiler

Show

This started as a pony, standing. Then I drew a circle (only thing on the page) and decided the head was pointing up, and I should draw a pony making a wish on a star. Then I noticed that the snout I sketched out was perfectly positioned for kissing an imaginary, let's say... Prince. And thus, we have Pre-Gala Rarity.

Please do not look at her flank, or compare/contrast size and proportion between her head or ... Anything else. I seem to have trouble sticking to the FiM style, and keep adding elements of G1/G2 body structure. I blame my ravenous appetite for fan art (Also, Trixie. I blame Trixie).

I tried to draw the body without first makin guidelines. It did not go as well as I hoped. Seems I do still need a lot of practice. Even if only for a generic standing pony form

PART TWO: OUT OF THE FRYING PAN, INTO THE COLD HARD SCRUTINIZING SPOTLIGHT
(or "crap, I forgot About Thanqol!")

Seconded! (If you haven't read any of mine, boo. Links in the great and powerful Trixie's wonderful OP.)

That reminds me. Siuis, what color do you think my fiction is?

Lessee. First, a caveat; my associations are less synesthesia, and more a scheme of color, texture and style I imagine the story (song/emotion/poem/etc.) following.

All Hallows Night had a border of vibrantly dark green scrollwork (a la pumpkin vines) around a faded white-sky-blue, like a watercolor mist. It quickly transitioned to the dark purple with stark black one sees in Halloween art for the 'looking out the window' scene.

FFF sticks close to the source material for style, which seems to be intentional on your part. The background color is the same ever-present blue-tinged cloud white one gets from the interior of Castle Oblivion, probably from Dash's cloudhouse.

Thanqol, ironically, asked me about 5 threads ago. I resolved to reread his works and get back to him, then promptly failed to do so in every way. Now I feel like a heel

Rainbow Dash: Derpy, I wish I knew how to quit you.



Rainbow Dash: ... no seriously. How do I quit you? You just walked up and started hugging me.

Hug/Bondage~!

My retirement plan!

...So you get an extra life if you somehow manage to tie up Celestia?

I will addict the Sun Goddess to leather and chains, and begin a cycle of death, rebirth and 1-UPs which will grant me immortality!!!

No idea if this has made it here yet (the thread's been moving too fast for me), but even if it has it's still awesome.

[Thanqol]

Thanqol, speaking of fics. Did you get a chance to work on the "Rainbow Dash Doesn't Know What Sex Is" fic?

I'm working on it in between my other projects. It got a mental upgrade from 5-minute-trollfic to something-I-want-to-put-effort-into. Going to happen, just thinking through the structure a tad more.

It's okay. I don't hate you. Much.


CONTINUATION OF THE CELESTIASHIMMER SHIP

"Princess Celestia!" Shimmer said in surprise, "I'm sorry for not bowing, but under the circumstances..."

"No excuses," said Celestia, finishing the knot around Shimmer's hooves.

"While I'm not, uh, entirely unused to this kind of thing," Shimmer said, squeaking a little as Celestia tied her first pair of wings together, "What's the occasion?"

"I... suspect magic is at work here," Celestia said, lovingly pulling the ropes tighter, "An ancient artifact called the Ship Note was created centuries ago by powerful shippers. If a pony writes the names of two other ponies in the ship note, they are obligated to make out."

"Oh, really? So... why the bondage, then?"

"I think that's just because I think you look good in ropes." Celestia said, carefully tying Shimmer's second pair of wings with her own tail.

"So are we going to... stop it or what?" Shimmer asked.

"I'm sorry, I got distracted there for a moment. What did you say?"

"Are we or are we not going to work on stopping the spell? I mean, I'm fine with whatever you want to do."

"I suppose we should stop this. Who knows who the culprit will ship next?" Celestia said, sounding disappointed.

"So you'll untie me?" Shimmer said, "It's - mmph!"

"Sorry. It's a very strong spell," said Celestia, gagging Shimmer.

Celestia's Beard! Metal Mask must either be stopped immediately or offered an advisory position in the Field Studies wing, immediately!

So hey, Metal Mask, you wanna join the Dark Side of the Pony ?

I wrote the first Rainbow-Dash-Gets-A-Library-Card story and you know it.

Hmph. And I distinctly remember mentioning Twilight being the only one of Rainbow's friends who would enable her reading rather than throwing out change-back behaviors.

We are arguing who is the ur-progenitor of the Rainbow Dash has an Intellectual Side fanon trope, right? I like arguing~

What's your cutey mark for that?

Also, I forget. Did that one fic Reading Rainbow come out before either or us, or did it come out after? I recall it lasted one chapter... oh yeah, then people said, jokingly, it was a better title than Through A Glass Derply.
