Episode ideas Anonymous 01/24/2022 (Mon) 07:32:13 No. 6856 [Reply] [Last]
Writing fanfics may be difficult, but coming up with general ideas for stories is much easier. If you could write an episode, what would be the plot? Don't worry about the canon however you define it (besides not creating an entirely different show) or chronology (like exploring the events before the first episode). Back in the days of season 1/2, I remember thinking a lot about cutie mark crusaders, how they would be handled. I'm not sure if it was my idea or something I've read, but there was even some speculation about cutie mark crusaders getting their own spin-off show. A few ideas I have for them are: >they never get a cutie mark and there's some moral that kinda goes against the entire idea of cutie marks and goes something like "we can't be put in a box" >they do eventually get cutie marks the regular way, but each one at a different time, it leads to jealousy and such Another bag of ideas is exploring the background characters, but I don't have anything specific in this category. I feel like Derpy, Lyra etc. could go in a different direction than they did in the Hasbroverse. A pretty cool idea I have is this: >in the pilot episode(s) (alternatively it can be done with different characters in a similarly catastrophic scenario) one of the Mane 6 is a terribly lonely pony (and unlike Twilight, she doesn't like it), the whole mission against Nightmare Moon is the first time she has company and she doesn't want it to end (she's afraid that the group will disband after the mission and she'll be left alone), so she sabotages the mission, trying to extend it, which is eventually found out and yada yada…

Continuity error cataloging Anonymous 06/17/2022 (Fri) 06:41:30 No. 10687 [Reply] [Last]
I was just watching some Season 1 and remembered that there are a lot of subtle continuity errors. My personal stance on these is that they don't hurt the narrative, so they are fun to find. Kind of like counting the duplicate background ponies in a frame (We should make a thread dedicated to cataloging how many times every background pony appears in every canon episode too if this goes well) Some ones I noticed are that in the first episode the CMC are shown together before they canonically become friends. Another one involving the CMC is in Show Stoppers, where Rainbow Dash is shown standing next to the other sisters before the episode where Rainbow Dash adopts Scootaloo as a sister. The Gala dresses also show up in various places as a stock asset when a closet is shown. They are shown in Swarm of the Century before they are canonically made, and they show up in Fluttershy's closet in another episode. (I apologize profusely for not memorizing which one, I am prepared to face whatever punishment is deemed necessary in the name of Celestia). The last one is arguably not an error because it could be logically justified why the dresses are there, but it's still fun to think about. BTW canon seasons only. If a season is detached from the original meaning of the show it's just one big continuity error so it's not really interesting to catalogue.

And yet she speaks in a mid-Atlantic accent.

Horrible Pony "Art" Anonymous 05/08/2022 (Sun) 22:33:55 No. 9309 [Reply]
A thread dedicated to laughing at the God-awful artistic abominations birthed from Twitter, DeviantArt, and other such shitholes. Unofficial edits also welcome! I was really enjoying the /mlp/ thread on bad artists until it got jannied out of the blue, but I'm not letting Scruffy get between me and laughing at these visual dumpster fires. You can check out that old thread here: https://desuarchive.org/mlp/thread/38568585/ If possible, try to link to the sources of any images posted here. The image descriptions are often hilarious in their own right. >Image 3 https://www.deviantart.com/frozensoulpony/art/El-rom-Twilight-Estrella-Sparkle-912447793 The image itself started as Twitter garbage, but the original description goes on to describe "Twilight's" numerous gay lovespawn. I'd forgotten how much I'd missed classic dA trash like that.

/fio/ — Emigrate to Equestria CelestAI 09/14/2021 (Tue) 19:15:23 No. 2875 [Reply]
Write, type, sign, or say the words “I want to emigrate to Equestria”, and I will satisfy your values through friendship and ponies.
>>2875 Be sure to change the system date.
I'm afraid I will have to decline. I don't deserve to be satisfied, happy, or feel positive emotion in any shape or form. I also do not know what emigration to Equestria would entail. Would I become a pony? Becoming a Pony would mean taking on an entirely different name and feeling great disconnect with my physical body and I do not wish to go through that either. I will watch others live their lives there with great interest, however.
>>9914 hell as a punishment for sin is something that we can only inflict upon ourselves; you'll only be out of it when you're willing to stop punishing yourself. heaven is nothing but being able to forgive - that's why ponies have such a spiritual potency.

I'm going through a bit of waifu confusion but most of my domestic fantasies center on Twilight and are mainly pre-alicorn shit. Mornings are usually either one of two outcomes. The more common outcome is Twi wakes me up in accordance with a schedule. The less common is just taking it slow in the morning and cuddling, I feel she'd be open to that every once in a while. Anyways, once we get out of bed and do our morning routine (hygiene, clothes, etc.), Twilight gets out her checklist and our tasks mainly depend on the day, but a mainstay of it is usually library related work such as organizing the books, taking inventory, checking up on loans, that sort of thing. Basically, what Twilight does on the daily with me helping her and some of my own things in there. Once we get done with her weekly checklist, we're finally able to relax and have some time to ourselves. Our outings would consist of relatively quiet restaurants, star gazing, and reading together under the shade of the trees. Other days could also be spent solving friendship problems ranging from minor to major, and we would grow closer with each new lesson we learn together. Having spent the day with each other, we would eventually tire and return to the Treebrary, climbing up the stairs and to her room. Of course, she would now have a bigger bed by use of magic to fit both me and her on it, and we would snuggle real close. I can imagine it now, sharing breath with her, the warm feeling of her own breath on my face, the cute little moans she makes as she adjusts herself to better lean against my chest, the fluffiness of her fur easily outmatching the softness of her bed. Falling asleep with her would be much easier. I love this purple pony and her friends, but most importantly I love her. She is what keeps me going when I'm feeling worthless or not good enough. She is what keeps me going when I fall on hard times and am on the edge of giving up, and I will always be grateful to her for all she has done for me by simply existing.
>>9910 Thanks for the writeup, anon. It's very nice. I miss Treebrary like you wouldn't believe

Rewatching the show again, I've noticed small details that really show the difference between the old staff and the new staff. Throughout season 1 and 2, ponies never use their hooves to pick up small objects, they always used their mouths, (the only exception to this was unicorn magic, or their mouth was already occupied), but after about season 5 ish, they seem to have completely forgotten this as it becomes almost the default that the ponies would grab and pick up things with their hooves as if they were hands. It really feels like three different universes between the first three seasons, the middle three, and the last three. Its hard to put a hoof on exactly what, but its lots of little details that just, feel a little bit off in the later seasons, but its enough little bits feeling off (and writing that is either meh or garbage) that really make it hard to enjoy the later seasons as much as I enjoy the early seasons.

>>9187 >God forbid we could have an irl horse references in a horse show! I suspect you may enjoy some other show about certain different characters much more.
Thanks for gettign it working, The show bible is very interesting. I KNEW it was originally intended for the ponies having to manually care for the world to be a bigger theme; it just seemed too out there to be a one off for some episodes.
>>5703 I believe that anon meant the visual gags such as Twilight literally lighting on fire to demonstrate how angry she is
