Re: My Little Pony LIV:E Long and Pony!
I don't think you really need to change it. One of the things about irrational people is that their connections and motivations don't quite make sense. Having the experience be slightly off relative to what's happening might make the reader uncomfortable in a way that genuinely matches what's going on in the story.
The Lyra and BonBon tie (TieraBon, heh) is tempting, but there's no place I would go that involves both
a) wearing a tie and
b) being able to get away with that tie.
I own a Looney Tunes tie, which is far more mainstream, and I still basically never wear it because it's too informal for anything in law that requires you wear a tie. And, if the place is informal enough not to require a tie, why would I wear one?

Re: My Little Pony LIV:E Long and Pony!
Well, firstly, I was trying to clarify that what what you were talking about isn't "Flash" animation itself. People tend to associate symbol animation as the only way of using Flash, but you can quite easily do traditional, single-cell animation, and plenty of people
do.
Also, the "additive" thing you mentioned isn't strictly true. A lot of animators who use symbols just have a library filled with vectored body parts created in Illustrator, which they then manipulate and animate in Flash by turning them into "symbols". Re-using old symbols that have already been created, and maybe adding to them isn't necessarily true and has less to do with Flash or symbols and more to do with saving time and money, like when Disney trace over their old animations.
I'm not saying that FiM DEFINITELY doesn't do it, they may very well, but it's not because of the animation technique that they're using.Last edited by Nameless; 2012-10-10 at 03:07 AM.

Nah, but she is the one who gets her name on the cover. She's worked out a deal with Daring's cousin, who actually writes the books but from whom nobody would buy them. But she does write other stories - the Con Mane novels, for instance.

Re: My Little Pony LIV:E Long and Pony!
And here I thought it was Applebloom waking up after a wild party at Pip's.
Tend to, but they shouldn't have to. They can easily set up a great comical based on the "Gone Sane in a Crazy World" scenario. And like you and Lich pointed out-- Added sardonic wit would work, yes.
What if Scoots had some freaky knowledge of sewing and was a good cosplayer?
Okay, now I'm picturing an episode where AJ gets drunk and throws a BETTER party than Pinkie Pie. Pinkie, not willing to accept second-best Pony position, plays "Keeping up with the Jones" and throws an even bigger party of Epic proportions.

Re: My Little Pony LIV:E Long and Pony!
I played some Pony Fantasy VI last night, and being bored as I grind for some magic points, I came up with a new game-- "Crusaders' Towers"!
To play the game, I make a team of Applebloom, Sweetie Belle, Scootaloo, and one more member (any unicorn or alicorn). The object of the game is to get the CMC safely to the top of Fanatics' Tower and back down again without using Wall Rings or the reflect spell. Since only magic can be used, Bloom and Scoots can wear Berzerk Rings.
So far the record is held by Trixie who got the CMC up to the top of the tower and halfway back down before a CMC member fell (Bloom). Celestia was a couple floors away from the top before Scootaloo was made into fried chicken with a Flare spell. Twilight got maybe a third the way up the tower before she was hit with a confusion spell and then nuked her party with Ultima.
You never know.
Years back I once did a silly comic of a professor trying to make Tuna Cassarole and ended up making the Powerpuff Girls. A couple months later I see a Cartoon Network ad for PPG that looked awfully similar to my comic.Last edited by DigoDragon; 2012-10-10 at 06:54 AM. Reason: My spelling is like a truck

Re: My Little Pony LIV:E Long and Pony!

I would like to sig this. xD
I can headcanon either of these.
Thus why I said tend. xD

Re: My Little Pony LIV:E Long and Pony!
Already my headcanon. How else could she be rich enough to afford Canterlot and influential enough to have her children become respectively the Princess's protege and chief of the guards?
Don't be silly. Ditzy just tells Twilight's mom about her sister, Daring. Then, Twilight's mom spices it up a little. Only reason she's not facing a lawsuit is because Daring likes the publicity it gives her.I run a Let's Play channel! Check it out!

Re: My Little Pony LIV:E Long and Pony!
I'm just wondering if it's in character for her. She doesn't look where she's going while singing and causes a domino effect by knocking some carts over and causing havoc in the marketplace. Is this enough of a connection to bring back the old memory and traumatize her into being reclusive?

Re: My Little Pony LIV:E Long and Pony!
Happy ponyversary, everypony! And scary avatar indeed, Blastech.
How to break into the Canterlot nobility.
step 1: write pulp adventure novels that secretly appeal to Celestia
step 2: ???
step 3: profit
Yes, you do have this effect on ponies. Now I kind of picture you as a pretty version of the emperor from Star Wars, laughing maniacally as you go "yes, yes, let the shipping flow through you."
If that ends up causing any kind of panic or screaming, probably yes. I mean, we see her call herself a loud mouth during the gala when she can't get near the animals. If her singing and carelessness caused widespread chaos and she was otherwise in the right mood, she'd probably freak out.

Re: My Little Pony LIV:E Long and Pony!
Could be. It doesn't even need to be a big disaster. A mean pony who just hates that song or something and lectures her on being so noisy could work. It really depends on the memory. I think it would be funny if the 'traumatic memory' was something that's actually really minor like waking up her foalsitter and getting yelled at.

Re: My Little Pony LIV:E Long and Pony!
This cannot possibly come as a surprise to you at this point.
I find myself in much the same position, just replacing "law" with "accounting".
Well, that could explain how Twilight had enough books to build her forts when she was a filly .If brute force isn't working, that just means you're not using enough of it.

Re: My Little Pony LIV:E Long and Pony!
Buck the trend! Express yourselves.
Although I can't say I like any of those tie's colors. And I am one of those people that would throw on a tie for no reason but to look semi-professional-casual. Rolled up sleeves on a colored collared shirt with contrasting colored tie make you pop and stand out. Add light khaki slacks, comfortable loafers, and a stylish hat to finish up your look, one that Rarity would approve.
And that why Twilight called it "Daring Do and the Quest for the Sapphire Statue" instead, it's the original title from the manuscripts instead of the published title.
And I see that Twilight is from nobility is catching on."Winning with friendship means winning at life!"

Re: My Little Pony LIV:E Long and Pony!
Sadly, accounting is one of those unfortuneate professions where "bucking the trend" is synomamous with "unemployed" .
Twilight being nobility has always been my headcannon, but that's partly due to my having a half-formed idea for a fic where she inherits a castle from a great-uncle.If brute force isn't working, that just means you're not using enough of it.
