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!

@cracky Oh, so it was recently. Mmm, well, singing about the end of winter in late summer is probably a little off-schedule, but not TOO bad.
-
@kingcarcinopony She does seem to, which, I must admit, feels pretty darned nice. :) Didn't even have to put any sort of coercion whammies on her or anything. Just goes to show, I suppose.
-
@zachariastargazer I'm not sure. I certainly hope to, but with the moon being full, I doubt that I'll go too far out of my way. And, of course, a lot will depend upon the weather, though it's usually more conducive to clear skies this time of year. But I'll probably go out to a clear field not far from here for a few hours on Friday, if nothing else.
-
@cracky Ohhh. Yes, definitely the staff. Unless you were singing it in, say, autumn, which could cause some confusion as well, like when I was at the Hallmark store last week, and they were playing Christmas music.
-
@kingcarcinopony Ohhh, yes. Not only is it possible, but it has happened for extended periods, and occurs at least once a day, when I awaken and look like a distressed Q-Tip on my way to the shower. (Though, oddly, my honey thinks it's cute. :p Go figure.)
-
@kingcarcinopony Mmm, no, just telegraphing my mood, I suppose, while trying to keep a professional, pleasant appearance. :)
-
@kingcarcinopony Ohhh, I do. Especially the other day, for example, when my patience was worn to nil, and I was going around doing my work with an eerily calm smile, singing Alice Cooper's "Welcome To My Nightmare" in a soft, sweet voice. People have been much less demanding and more appreciative since then, I've noticed. It's amazing what a well-timed smile can do. :)
-
@zachariastargazer Yay, welcome back! Sorry to hear the Walgreens run wasn't fruitful. Next time. :)

@kingcarcinopony I do that from time to time, too. Sometimes, it frightens people whenI do.
-
@enditrust Hello, and welcome. :)

@kingcarcinopony :)

@engelhardt Kind of depends on what part of the country you're in. Around here, some people look at car drivers as if they are personally responsible for killing the Earth, every tree on it, and all the millions and billions of little furry creatures that all resemble Bambi. I actually went a year and a half without driving, at one point, and very few people found it at all unusual.

♻ @moxximusical @starshine @gear @nvrrmbr winter wrap up, winter wrap up!
-
@nvrrmbr Really? Hmmm. *ahem* Three months of winter coolness, and awesome holidays ...
-
@nvrrmbr Yes, but have you gotten to where, if you hear the start of it, you have to finish it, no matter what?
-
@pinhooves Awww! I usually only see my family every 2-3 years, so I know how that can ache.
-
@zachariastargazer Ohhhh, that DOES sound good! Might have to do something similar when I get home.
-
@greydragon412 Actually, the theory is that the smaller moon collided with the far side of the larger one, at a very slow relative velocity. So, perhaps Celestia simply gently consolidated the two, to make it easier to control.
-
@zachariastargazer Welcome back again! I hope that your nap was a good one.
-
@eaglehooves What you said. Total agreement, 100%.
-
@leonkfox Bleh! Been there and done that. Glad it finally showed up, and that the rest of your day was a great one! :)
-
@thelastgherkin Oooh, pretty! :)
