  1. Does anypony know if/how I can get ahold of Kkat? I wanted to seek her approval before trying a hoof at a Fallout: Equestria Side Story.

    1. @tenmihara grapes man, everyone who reads FO:E wants to make a side story. I know I do. I want to BIG time!

      Sunday, 23-Oct-11 04:25:53 UTC from web
      1. @redtie Indeed, but I wanted to run my premise by Kkat first. Both to see if she would approve of the idea and possible brainstorm a couple things.

        1. @tenmihara *possibly

          Sunday, 23-Oct-11 04:27:12 UTC from web
      2. @redtie Did you have an idea for a FoE side fic? I'm curious =O

        Sunday, 23-Oct-11 04:35:32 UTC from web
        1. @tenmihara yes, it starts in Vault 63. and involves plenty of accidental kidnapping (i was thinking to use that as a recurring joke)

          Sunday, 23-Oct-11 04:40:33 UTC from web
          1. @redtie Um, which one is Stable 63? Was it mentioned somewhere in the main story, or did you choose the number arbitrarily

            Sunday, 23-Oct-11 04:42:04 UTC from web
            1. @tenmihara no i made it up.

              Sunday, 23-Oct-11 04:44:40 UTC from web
              1. @redtie I see. Was there a Vault 63 in one of the Fallout games?

                Sunday, 23-Oct-11 04:46:37 UTC from web
                1. @tenmihara no. i also picked the number for a reason. and its an orignal stable in the story. unique.

                  1. @redtie Okay. Any Stable-Tec experiments going on? If so, what?

                    Sunday, 23-Oct-11 04:49:30 UTC from web
                    1. @tenmihara rule 63. the stable is twice as large. two stables connected at one point. the exit. one is full of just males and the other is full of just mares. neither knowing about the other sides existence or even that another gender exists. And then when one wishes to leave and explore the waste land, she bumps into a buck also leaving the vault looking for adventure. they both look and sound alike, and act alike...what a terrible way to start an adventure.

                      1. @redtie Curious. But with the population severed between Genders, how would they have lasted more than a Generation after the Apocalypse?

                        Sunday, 23-Oct-11 04:54:54 UTC from web
                        1. @tenmihara theres a big machine between the twin stables that births them and pops them into each one. they dont even have a concept of family or parents.

                          Sunday, 23-Oct-11 04:56:02 UTC from web
                          1. @redtie Still a bit confused; how does this birthing thing work?

                            Sunday, 23-Oct-11 05:01:04 UTC from web
                            1. @tenmihara my idea was that inside its magic matrix it kept a whole bunch of earth pony DNA (no unicorns or pegs in this one) and it would mix two ponies dna, make a fetus, then when it was old enough to actually be born. it would kinda..well..pop through a little shoot and the residents would care for it. that's really all I have thought about it.

                              Sunday, 23-Oct-11 05:04:49 UTC from web
                              1. @redtie Interesting, but you might want to put a little more thought into how that would work, and also come up with a reason why Scootaloo would design an experiment of that nature.

                                Sunday, 23-Oct-11 05:06:30 UTC from web
                                1. @tenmihara also check your inbox man.

      3. @redtie I'm amazed at how big that fanfic has gotten. At this rate, when it's done it will be the War and Peace of My Little Pony.

        1. @wishingwell Its already longer than lord of the rings and Anna Karenina

          Sunday, 23-Oct-11 04:40:51 UTC from web
        2. @wishingwell At 40+ chapters and easily 50k+ words, it's pretty much a full novel at this point. I'm going to lose so much free time when I finally get around to catching up on it.

          Sunday, 23-Oct-11 04:40:59 UTC from web
          1. @eaglehooves It's over 550k words actually XD

            Sunday, 23-Oct-11 04:45:19 UTC from web
            1. @tenmihara Oops, time to get my glasses. I didn't think that sounded right when I typed it...

              Sunday, 23-Oct-11 04:46:43 UTC from web
              1. @eaglehooves No worries; I'm just OCD about numbers =P

                Sunday, 23-Oct-11 04:48:09 UTC from web
    2. @ponydude2143 if you like fallout and you like ponies, then you owe it to yourself to read this.

      Sunday, 23-Oct-11 04:45:09 UTC from web
    3. @ponydude2143 I can't guarantee that anypony in particular will like it, but I can praise the writing, world crafting and characterizations ceaslessly

      Sunday, 23-Oct-11 04:45:54 UTC from web
    4. @ponydude2143 the frist two fallout games were dark but had alot of dark humour in them. the third one for the next gen consols was just dark. This fic manages to be dark and funny at points.

      Sunday, 23-Oct-11 04:50:41 UTC from web
    5. @redtie Felt it might be a good idea to make note of that. After all, it was Scoots who modified the stables from Apple Bloom's original designs to incorporate the experiments

      Sunday, 23-Oct-11 05:13:08 UTC from web
      1. @tenmihara hmm. scoots couldn't have done the remodding alone. he must have had a team. A team that might have had...other ideas.

        Sunday, 23-Oct-11 05:14:32 UTC from web
        1. @redtie Interesing concepts, but you'll definitely have to do a lot of fleshing out before you go to actually try and write

          Sunday, 23-Oct-11 05:15:19 UTC from web
          1. @tenmihara i know. it will require a lot of planning and brainstorming. Nothing has yet to be written down for this.

            Sunday, 23-Oct-11 05:16:12 UTC from web
            1. @redtie My idea was less a side story and more a prequel. I wanted to explore Redeye's character; delve into his time before becoming a monster. I recall him often saying how he used to be like Littlepip

              Sunday, 23-Oct-11 05:19:40 UTC from web
              1. @tenmihara that seems like Kkats territory. i'd be dissapointed if kkat didn't give him a proper backstory.

                Sunday, 23-Oct-11 05:21:41 UTC from web
                1. @redtie True enough, which is why I was adamant about getting in touch with her before making the attempt.

                  Sunday, 23-Oct-11 05:29:43 UTC from web
                  1. @tenmihara frankly i'd stay away from that. thats way to close to her work.

                    Sunday, 23-Oct-11 05:30:52 UTC from web
                    1. @redtie Well, then I guess I'm down an idea =P
