Seriously. I had it stuck in my head all day today at work, and it's been at least a week since the last time I watched that episode! It will never leave. It's like the DuckTales theme song, but with Ponies. I'll be humming it as an old gray man on my deathbed, long after I've forgotten where it came from.
I'm half convinced that the only reason I like it is because if I didn't, I'd go absolutely insane.

Yeah, I did it intentionally, due to the fact that the other ear is typically not drawn in this art style. And I didn't want her cute widdle wing to get covered up, as that's part of what makes it adorable and shows that she is in fact a widdle fiwwy....
God, I swear, that isn't enough warnings for it. It's just that much cute.
In a very weird way, I'm forced to wonder if maybe it wasn't too cute. Like, you know how when you're craving a particular food, and once you eat it you realize it's too damn tasty and you want more? It's kind of like that. I really thought my desire for filly Shimmer would subside after I saw her. But... no. If anything, it's increased.
I don't know what to do short of go searching for a mirror and the fountain of youth.

No, you made the right call not delaying. I think I might have exploded in the anticipation. She has such tiny widdle wingsies and... *squees* Oh dear me. I'm experiencing filly overload. And it's not enough!
What with its particular plot, Heroics is not helping on this front, either. Raz, you scoundrel! You planned this!

We grow spares. Beyond that cloud bank yonder, there's a wide plateu just positively strewn with green glass capsules, a la mega man X.
Inside each is a tiny filly Midnight, vestiges from when cutting open EsperDerek was a thing, and he'd need replacement parts.
Almost everypony but me forgot they were up there, and what was supposed to be discrete organs and organ systems have had the time to become full ponies. It's a lonely job, growing and tending to a field of comatose Midnights, but at least I get to eat well. ;D

I stole them from darthbobcat. He's got a pile of them in his fridge for some reason.
Hang on a sec.
*whips out a labcoat and a pair of reading glasses*
Mister... Thanqol? I'm afraid that your replacement organs weren't from a safe donor, and... well, I'm afraid you have Love Poisoning, or Yandere Disease. I... I'm sorry. It's fatal. You may only have hours to live.

Since my policy, whenever accused of planning something, is to roll with it... ahahahaha!! You fell right into my trap, Miss Phoe! While your reflexes are swift indeed, the cuteness of no less than three Filly Shimmer depictions has already overloaded your nervous system, leaving you easily kidnappable! Mwahahahaha!
(Also, that's going straight to the sig.)

Hours to live? You mean HOURS TO LOVE! I'm going to go on a date, my last date, if it's the last thing I do! Which seems uncomfortably likely! *Points randomly into the thread crowd* YOU! WE'RE GOING TO DO ROMANCE NOW!

Great! This is going great! So great! *Hesitation* Oh, look. There's a flower growing in your gears. *Picks flower* Ow. Ow. That's not a flower, that's Patterson's Curse. Um. Here you go? *Offers*
*Thanqol hesitates for a moment, unsure of exactly what comes next. He reaches out and turns on a CD player which begins playing Barry White music.*
Are you romanced yet?
Oh wow XD
*pssst* hey! Hey, Thanqol! Try to access his control panel, upload that heat ofthe night program I snuck into Raz_Fox while he was rebooting. That'll get some ROMANCE going.

*Awkwardly blurted* It goes with your rust!

Using the 500 server error to post without losing my quote wall.
Are you guys trying to kill me?!
I'm drinking some milkychocolateycoffee drink, and Braz, who delivered it, reads aloud "*looks up Patterson's curse* Wow, everything in Australia really does try to kill you".
I laugh, because it's funny, Y'know? But I've got a mouthful of milk, so I have to be careful.
Well, snortling apparently creates suction, as the narrowed air passage due to moustache interference causes me to vacuum seal my right nostril shut.
This normally wouldnt be a problem, except my left is apparently stuffed and I didn't notice. So now I'm trying to blow open my nostril so I can breathe, or drink the mouthful of milk, so I can breathe.
Neither of Which is happening.
So what next? Why, while still laughing, I manage to avoid shooting milk up into my nose... By firmly juggling I between tonsils and diaphragm.
So now I'm choking on milk. Bad. And of course, Braz just starts laughing, because I fall over.
It's about 6 seconds later, and finally while laughing/choking I manage to eject the milk from my larynx enough to breathe. Momentum being what it is, the milk keeps going, and now I'm cleaning the wall.
So thanks, pony thread.
And a special thanks to you, Thanqol, for bringing this upon me. I don't ven live in Australia; talking to an Australian over the internet is enough for australia to try and kill you.
*cough*
