"What's going on Twilight?" Spike asked with a yawn as the purple pony's rushing around woke him from his draconic slumber. "Some of us are trying to sleep!"
"Sorry Spike," the unicorn apologized to her number one assistant, "but one of my spells picked up some weird energy from the Everfree Forest, some kind of magic I've never seen before, and I need to find out what it is and get the information to Princess Celestia in case it threatens Equestria!" To Be Continued...
I know I'm evil, get with the program!
EMERGENCY! ALL the Danny Phantom episodes are being deleted from Youtube! I am counting on you to post new ones. The more good quality DP episodes there are, the faster I will try to update!
If you want me to keep updating my Phantom in the Bund DP/Dance in the Vampire Bund Crossover story, the first story in a multi-crossover series spanning most of my DP crossovers, I need Dance in the Vampire Bund volumes 11-13 available ASAP! I will focus on my other stories less as well until I can get the manga so I can know more about the series (a big part of the reason I have waited so long for some of my other stories).
Happy Holidays!
These are questions I asked Loyal2Luna:
Any tips for a fellow writer? For example, tips for keeping a steady update speed, what’s a good size for a chapter, writing technique, etc.
Relating to the above, are there any tips you can give for keeping the FIM ponies (and others) in character (speech patterns, etc)?
Are there any characters that you regret not being able to write in “Shades of Twilight”?
Is Ruby Pinch real in “Shades of Twilight”, and if so, is she Berry Punch’s daughter?
Is there any way Zecora could appear in “Shades of Twilight” (Pip proves that pony coats don’t have to be one color, and she could have been an attempt to experiment with pigments or something)?
Have you been thinking about my ideas of collecting the genetic material of the adult herd members and improving the herd’s self-defense capabilities?
Did you like seasons three and four and some of the stuff in them (like Princess Twilight and the season four closer, especially the awesome battle)?
Do you prefer any of your stories/series over the others, and if so which one? Why?
Have you ever read the Pony POV series? Have you ever read “The Commander of Shepards”? When will “Shepard’s R&R” update? Are you gonna commission any more art of your stories from FoxInShadow (the previous work is pretty great BTW)? I'd especially like to see more "Equestrian Equation" and "Shades of Twilight" art.
What was Discord like before his mind was uploaded? Why did he turn evil? Was Luna looking for death like it seemed she was when Shepard met her? Why was 42 the only sentient Changeling drone at the facility? Why was Chrysalis such a jerk (also, was she the rogue AI Pinkie mentioned, or was it only imitating her), and was she uploaded too or was she simply a normal AI?
What partner do you prefer for Shepard?
What is the nicest thing any fan has said to you? How do you feel about your fans?
Excerts from another story of mine:
Lanterns of Equestria – Blackest Night
PROLOGUE: IN THE BEGINNING
Once upon a time, in another universe, there was darkness.
It was the era before reality became defined, at the point before existence that constitutes all came to be, in the time before the very concept of Time itself existed, when the Universe was anything BUT.
There was nothing, nothing but an absolute, lifeless darkness that stretched infinitely in all directions.
And for a time, it was the way things were.
Then, at an unspecified point of history, a spark was struck, either by design, or accident.
And there was Light.
It was WHITE Light of Creation. In later days that point of history would come to be known in many names: Genesis, The Big Bang, the Dawn of Time, the Carving of the Heavens, Alpha, the Beginning of Everything, and so on.
The absolute darkness in the universe was replaced by the Light, and for a while, it filled all of reality with its brilliance.
From this beginning came many things – among them Time, Matter, Energy of all kinds, Electromagnetism, Gravity, Nuclear forces, etc. From all this, stars were born, planets came into being, galaxies would fill the filaments, and the Universe as we know it came into existence.
And from this Light, came the ENTITY.
Again, no one knew whether the Entity came naturally, or was the product of some design, but what was known is that before life, the Entity was its embodiment.
Overtime, the Entity began to affect the universe around it, and from its very existence, life arose. It gave birth to the living beings that would come to populate the infinite worlds across the vastness of the cosmos, and as the embodiment of all life, all life is linked to it, and it to all life.
For a time, all was good.
But it did not last...
With the advent of life, there was imbalance in the cosmos. The darkness before creation was not pleased by having been displaced by the White Light, to have nothing filled with something, to have impassiveness replaced by action, to have lifelessness given over to life.
Eventually, this darkness, the BLACK as it would be call, sought to regain its dominance over universe, by eradicating all life.
It battled the White Light, and it was stopped by the White Light, but this victory came at a price: In the process, the White Light of Creation was splintered into seven different colours.
At the same time, as life evolved across the Universe, they experienced various feelings as they struggled to survive and prosper, a byproduct of their existence. These feelings became Emotions. There were seven primal emotions in all, and the Seven Colours of the WHITE came to represent them
And so from the first living things, came the Emotional Spectrum.
In each instance, when they arose, the Entity's power touched them, and the first life-forms that experienced them became entities that embodied them:
WILLPOWER came into existence when life first moved on its own accord. When transformed into power, the GREEN colour of the Light represented it, and the whale-like Entity of its Embodiment came to be known as ION.
Before long, the creatures on the life-bearing worlds escaped the oceans and into the land and air. As life hunted other life for subsistence, other life fled from those that hunt. The terror that drove their struggle for survival became an emotional power: FEAR, and with it, the YELLOW entity PARALLAX was born, bearing the form of a monstrous insect.
The imperative of life was reproduction, and when life became aware of it as a concept, to experience the imperative as an emotion, and with sentience the concept shed its skin and grew beyond the mere passing on one's genetic material, the VIOLET light of LOVE was ignited, and the PREDATOR came into existence, wearing the form of a predatory reptile.
As time went on, life-forms became secured in their own existence, and grew a craving for more than what it needs to survive. When the first creature devours more than what it needs, it becomes consumed with AVARICE. The entity of greed, ORPHIDIAN, took the shape of an ORANGE serpent.
With sentience, emotions became more volatile. With the first murder, when one life killed another not out of necessity, but from the extreme emotion felt of being wronged, the entity of RAGE took the form of a demonic bull, crimson RED, and it bore the moniker of the BUTCHER.
This story is still in it's infacy BTW.
