  1. Now anyway, I'm going to announce an ambitious new fanfiction series set in what I like to call the Owliverse (AKA Alternate Equestrian Universe #)! Set over the course of 30 years, this series follows many ponies doing pony things. Solve mysteries with Fetlock Holmes, the shady private eye for hire! Watch as secret agent Black Tide strives to foil the evil Nightmare Cult! D'aaw as Luna adapts to a thousand years of missed development! Follow the mane 6 as they embark on a quest to save their best friend from certain doom. And will you root for the honourable thief, Carbon Gem, as he prepares to steal from the most secure vault in the world?

    1. @theowl Sounds cool. I'm writing a fanfic at the moment too!

      1. @princessfluttershy You know, it started out as one single Trixie fic and decided to snowball into so many more stories. What's your fic about?

        1. @theowl Well, I'm writing two. One's a light-hearted comedy, and one's a dark, sad fanfic. More sad than dark though.

          1. @princessfluttershy Awesome, I love sadfics!

            1. @theowl Yeah. It's more sad because Twilight loses her best friends, her other best friend is evil, and she's worried who the evil one will kill next.

              1. @princessfluttershy Sounds more grimdark than sadfic but hell I love grimdark just as much as I do sad stories. Then again, I'm always gutted when any of them die in bad ways, I remember feeling awful because almost all of them had bad ends in Fallout Equestria.

                1. @theowl Yeah, it's just less grimdark than other fanfics, because you don't witness any murdering.

                  1. @princessfluttershy Going for the creepypasta vibe? Good stuff, it would probably just end up reminding me of Cupcakes if we actually saw any killing.

                    1. @theowl Meh, maybe the fact it's a sequel to Cupcakes except making Pinkie not evil. (It's Rarityyyyy)

                      1. @princessfluttershy Am I anticipating the Pinkie from Cupcakes to be rarity in a skin costume? Good god I hope not, Pinkie is mai waifu :(

                        1. @theowl No, It's like Rarity is forcing Pinkie to do it.

                          Saturday, 23-Jul-11 10:13:54 UTC from web
                          1. @princessfluttershy Damn you Rarity!

                            Saturday, 23-Jul-11 10:14:57 UTC from web
                            1. @theowl The Eeeeevil Rarity says that if Pinkie doesn't do it, she'll kill all her best friends, Mr. and Mrs. Cake, and her parents and make it look like Pinkie did it.

                              Saturday, 23-Jul-11 10:16:12 UTC from web
                              1. @princessfluttershy :'( Poor pinkie... although that does open up 2 questions for me: 1) If she's doing it to stop her best friends getting murdered, why is she torturing Rainbow Dash and planning to do the same to Applejack in Cupcakes? 2) Why doesn't she just kill Rarity?

                                Saturday, 23-Jul-11 10:18:43 UTC from web
                                1. @theowl Well, I guess she forgot about the deal, but when she killed Rainbow Dash *BOOM* she remembers? And she doesn't kill Rarity since Rarity's pretty famous, so if she went missing ponies would notice.

                                  Saturday, 23-Jul-11 10:21:44 UTC from web
                                  1. @princessfluttershy or like she was hyponotised or something? I like the idea of the story, but I'll be honest, her forgetting that she was only doing it to save her friends strains the suspension of disbelief. I suppose what I'd do if I were in your shoes would be to make it a spiritual sequel instead of a direct sequel, since that would allow you to write your own fanon instead of following Cupcake's fanon. But hey, if you can pull it off that would be cool.

    2. @greydragon412 That's the magic of stories :) What's your favourite sadfic? I think mine would either be 'Tales' or 'Carousel'.

      1. @theowl Mine's a recent one, but I forgot what it's called. It's about Roseluck.

        Saturday, 23-Jul-11 10:03:55 UTC from web
        1. @princessfluttershy Princess and the Rose?

          Saturday, 23-Jul-11 10:06:38 UTC from web
          1. @theowl Oh yeah! Love that.

    3. @greydragon412 You know, that one never seemed to get to me as much as it did some people. Not sure why. Oh well!

    4. @greydragon412 :o

    5. @greydragon412 Oh god my brain assploded when I read that.

    6. @greydragon412 I got a bit bored halfway and speed-read the rest, but I got the main gist of it all. And as for that second post, I'm not really qualified to say on account of my never RPing, lol.
