Probably Stuck Between Dimensions
(Yes, I know this place is back. No, I don't plan on returning; I just don't fit in with the whole "4chan vibe", as I heard it described recently. Anyway, if anyone wants to keep in touch, catch TryshaGray on Twitter. Otherwise, have fun, and keep it pony.)
Not all ponies miss out on all that Princess Luna has put together for her show after she brings out the moon! Me? I do some of my best work and spell-weaving when the stars come out. Besides, I tend to be the sort to keep to myself, a lot of the time. Lately, I've found I'm a lot more of a "Twilight Sparkle" person, though some still say I have a very "Fluttershy" personality, right down to being more likely to talk to your critter companions than you, at first. It takes me a little while, but if I don't get too badly spooked, I'll open up. And if you see me suddenly pop out of a moon portal, or catch my eye hovering in the sky as I try to find someone or something I've lost again . . . sorry about that. I really try not to startle people too much with this stuff. It's just so cool, though!

@sugar Bleh! Agreed! :p
-
@princessluna Good morning, cutie! :) Very glad to hear that your coffee fortunes have improved.
-
@derpy Also an insulting name from her childhood. I like mine better. :p
-
@kingcarcinopony Heh! Probably moreso than I am at work.
-
@zachariastargazer #season2prediction It will be revealed that "Derpy" is not her actual name, but an insulting nickname that was used so widely when she was growing up that everyone assumes that it is. She is too sweet to try to correct people on it, even though it hurts her feelings to be called that. By the end of the episode, the ponyfriends will apologize, and promise to call her Effy, short for her real name, Effervescent (thus her cutie mark of bubbles, indicative of her light, enthusiastic and cheerful personality).
-
@kingcarcinopony More often than not, I can't be. So much of myself that I have to keep under wraps, especially when I'm at work.
-
@fluttersky Well, I've been here for a couple of months now -- blame @princessluna for my finding out about this place -- but I started watching things around . . . March, I think? A few friends sent me clips from it, because they said that Fluttershy reminded them of me. Specifically, the one where Twilight meets her (if I meet someone with an animal in passing, I will often barely make eye contact with the person, but sometimes have lengthy cheerful conversations with their animal companion), and when Rainbow Dash teaches her how to cheer (I've long done that quiet little, "Yay," in celebration of something). After that, I started watching the shows, and couldn't get enough of them! :)
-
@kingcarcinopony Awww! But I like sleep. I can dream there. In dreams, I can sometimes be myself. :) More often than I can out of them, anyway. At any rate, have a safe trip home. :)
-
@fluttersky Hee! Yes, I sort of lurked here for almost a month before I jumped in, so I know what you mean. Really glad that you're liking things here so far! :)
-
@zachariastargazer Ouch. :( All the more reason for me to wait for DVD to catch that one.
-
@kingcarcinopony Hey, Mortal Kombat is good! I know some people who would love to sit and play that all day. :)
-
@awkwardpony Yay, good to hear that you're settling in here well! :)
-
@fluttersky My pleasure! I hope that you're enjoying things here so far. :)
-
@awkwardpony Hello, there, and welcome, AwkwardPony! Good to see you here. :)
-
@fluttersky Hello and welcome, Fluttersky. :) Good to see you here!
-
@communistprimemon Ew! Well, I hope that the power problems stabilize. Glad all is well otherwise. :) And I'm doing well enough, thanks! Being kept busy with some issues, but managing all right.
-
@communistprimemon Hello, there! One if those days?
-
@princessluna Because they were good cookies, but not quite good enough to eat the whole bag? :D
-
@ignaesia Well, I certainly hope that it doesn't come to that, though, from the maps we're getting here, the satellite towns seem to be getting randomly struck, too, though mostly within a 15Km radius.
-
@sugar Yes! What you said. *nodnod* *blush*
-
@princessluna Or you can use the Inbox and Outbox tabs on the web page, I think. (Haven't found a way to do it in Mustard, though. *pout*)
-
@milksake Yay, welcome! Sounds like as good a reason as any! :) (And, yes, that Wonderbolt is a pretty awesome pony. :) )
-
@ignaesia Unfortunately, all those sorts need is an excuse. Reason doesn't really factor into the equation. :/ I hope you're doing all right, there.
-
@princessluna "Nothing spectacular" sounds like a good thing to come back to when returning to the office. :) I know you'll get those issues straightened out! And I'm glad that you're back to your sketching again. I always look forward to seeing your work there. :)
-
@kingcarcinopony Oh, a bit buried in work-stuff -- though not so buried that I wouldn't have time to handle @princessluna 's coffee tasting duties -- but otherwise doing pretty well so far! And you?
-
@princessluna *gasp!* Yaaay! :) In that case, I'll keep working on that from my end as well, and if I suddenly get grabbed and pulled by you from long range while I'm working on it, so much the better!
-
@princessluna Eee! !hug So, aside from rancid coffee and fatigue, how are you doing today? :)
-
@leonkfox It's still no cause for rioting, though. Those involved had a peaceful protest/vigil at the police house after it happened. None of them have been involved in this mess. All of this is just a bunch of jerks looking for an excuse to be violent and wreck things.
-
@kingcarcinopony :D Carcino!
-
@princessluna Ewwww! :p Maybe someone just cleaned the coffee machine, and didn't rinse it properly afterward? Anyway, I DO drink coffee, so I'll be more than happy to volunteer to accept "Princess Luna's Coffee Tester" to my job duties . . . along with all of the other ones I've volunteered for as soon as I can figure out how to teleport 2,000 miles. *sags* :(
