Re: My Little Pony XIX: I Emptied Your Thread
That's true. I don't know, though. It's hard to tell, especially since we all have our slightly different characterizations of the ponies. I tens to think of ships I wouldn't support as 'thought exercises', a "if Rarity and RD got together and it worked, how would it?" kind of thing.

"Rarity tried to speak up, but Tirek had already charged into their midst, and smacked Twilight away before Soarin had the presence of mind to make his own charge."
Which seems like the simplest way of handling it. That's if ouconsider it a problem, of course.
Otherwise, nice work. Except for the Untitled Document part. Couldn't find the tab for a spell there XD
Exposure. No press is bad press. Except word of mouth, which has me set against it. for some folks, this leek of fame is an achievement.

Re: My Little Pony XIX: I Emptied Your Thread
Maybe I'm a lot lazier than I realize, but that's way too much work for the attention alone (especially anonymous attention). I'm kind of interested now, though. Do ya'll know if they're a collective that's writing and making the art together or if the author is commissioning it?

Re: My Little Pony XIX: I Emptied Your Thread
1 being least miserable, 5 being most miserable.
1) GuardoPie. Pinkie Pie would be his grounding character, reminding him he's more than the helmet. (in the metaphor of Robin or Catwoman or whoever his sidekick was helping Batman remember he's not just the mask).
2) CheriileeTia. It could conceivably last long term, though eventually Celestia would run into the Mayfly problem. This detail is present in all Celestia ships, so it isn't unique to this one; its presence places it above GuardoPie for misery.
3) TrixieDash: Constant bickering. CONSTANT bickering. But they're both ponies who seem to thrive on conflict, competition and bickering (it's the basis Dash's friendship with AJ, Trixie openly welcomes the hecklers for the chance to enhance her act). What puts this above CherileeTia is that I imagine this could be grating in a long term relationship. Eventually, one of them is going to have a bad day and want comfort, and the other might not realize this and keep up the normal playful banter until one of them is packing their things in a huff.
4) GildoHooves. For one thing, the anatomical differences between the species would be a wedge. And I don't just mean just sexually. Gilda's beak implies carnivory; Ponies are herbivores. Claws that can rip open prey can rip open ponies during embraces. Etc. This is on top of some poor pony having to put up with Gilda's personality... and some poor Griffon having to deal with the 10th Doctor's personality, as most fanfic writers write him. Both are jerks; different flavors of jerk, with different origins, but what elevates this over TrixieDash is that Gilda seems to like having things her way, and The Doctor is the same way, so the PLAYFUL part of the playful bickering would be absent far more often.
5) Photoshy. Photo Finish either is unaware of Fluttershy's wants and needs, or simply doesn't care. There are a lot of ponies who would walk all over Fluttershy, but Photo Finish is the one to do it the most completely. I cannot see the introduction of romance fundamentally altering their relationship dynamic.
EDIT: I can't judge Blueblood/Vinyl Scratch very well. I don't have an image of Vinyl's character to go on. Like, I know there's fanfics of her, and comics, and stuff, but I've never felt her as anything but that cool head banging pony with a nice design. What Blueblood needs is somepony with the will and ability to whip him into shape, and I don't know who the mare for the job is.Last edited by darthbobcat; 2011-08-06 at 12:52 AM.

Re: My Little Pony XIX: I Emptied Your Thread
There's also the matter of doing something people enjoy and proving that the internet is not all...
Let's call them Gildas.
And before I go to bed: Is there really any more miserable combo than Blueblood or Photo / Shy? Assuming she doesn't go stare/murder on the former.Last edited by MCerberus; 2011-08-06 at 01:21 AM.

Re: My Little Pony XIX: I Emptied Your Thread
Hm... if we allow species barrier to be crossed, Fluttershy/That green dragon from Owl's Well That Ends Well.
Non-species barrier jump, Blueblood/Fluttershy is probably as miserable a pairing as the show could give us. You have the ultimate jerk paired with the ultimate doormat. Blueblood would have to threaten somepony besides Fluttershy to get her to snap out of it and defend herself; Fluttershy always needs somepony else to be in danger before she acts.My anime review podcast is coming back after a one year hiatus! www.fivepointpodcast.com

Re: My Little Pony XIX: I Emptied Your Thread
What about Blueblood and Twilight? Assuming she's new to the dating scene, that is. Imagine him being his usual self and Twilight wondering if a first date is supposed to go like this. It's the romantic equivalent of being led through a minefield by someone who also doesn't know where the explosives are.

Re: My Little Pony XIX: I Emptied Your Thread
I'd guess that it's psychologically identical to regular attention. Even if they have no idea who you are and only know you by "Bobcat" or "Pen Stroke," people are still writing about you. If it was as calculated as you guys are making it out to be, though, I still don't quite get what the end game was. Doing something for the pure fun and experience of it (and continuing once you get 10 good reviews) is very, very different in my mind than how ya'll are portraying this book's birth.
I don't know, whatever. Maybe we should stop talking about this. Flutterblood is the worst pair I can think of. Awesome band name, though.Last edited by Kindablue; 2011-08-06 at 01:42 AM.

Re: My Little Pony XIX: I Emptied Your Thread
@ RD: I think Twilight would figure out the game sooner than Fluttershy, since How to Date and Stable Marriages in 257 Easy Steps would give her a baseline for comparison.
Also
Um, h-hi. We're Flutterb-blood and we're here to rock... if that's okay with you, we can play other music if you like, I've been working on my Hisponia style acoustic guitar songs...
Why did we let her be the lead again?Last edited by darthbobcat; 2011-08-06 at 01:46 AM.

Re: My Little Pony XIX: I Emptied Your Thread
The next Doctor needs to be a Hipster for exactly this reason.
Also, it occurs to me that Hipster AJ and Rarity might get along better than normal AJ and Rarity.
On one hand, Hipster AJ is a Hipster, on the other hand, can you get any firstier than a designer custom making clothes specifically for you?Thanks to Dirty Tabs for the Travis pony.

Re: My Little Pony XIX: I Emptied Your Thread
My understanding is those are all actually the same pony. They're simply different versions or reincarnations of the same character, who keeps renewing himself and returning in slightly different ways. I could be wrong though, I'm not that familiar with the original Dr. Who.

Re: My Little Pony XIX: I Emptied Your Thread
While I'm not well read in the Who-niverse, both are plausible. (I've been meaning to get into it, because my friends have hyped it up to high Heavens, I just haven't found the time and the Internet is poopy here, thus making streaming Netflix painful.)

Re: My Little Pony XIX: I Emptied Your Thread
That'd be in line with Doctor Who, except that each individual time lord only has 13 regenerations, and the hourglass is a VERY popular background cutie mark.
@ WJ: I wouldn't recommend Who; it's possibly one of my least favorite series ever. It's taken Doctor Whooves being a popular background pony for me to have anything but rage at the series in general and its title character in particular. I seem to have a minority opinion on the internet, though.Last edited by darthbobcat; 2011-08-06 at 02:26 AM.
