>>18087 Awesome stuff Anon.

What do ypu think about this?

>>18127 pls respond

>>18127 >>18229 It's a pretty cool horse.

>>18127 >>18229 it's actually really good. I feel like the shapes towards the neck and chest are a little too distinct and sharp, giving it a bit of a toyetic character, but her head is excellent. I'm not a traditional painter so I don't know for sure, but I feel like you should do more layering so the white of the canvas doesn't show up as much - that'd make blending and shoft shapes show up better.

>>18073 Uh?

>>18076 >>18133 Ohhh, neat!

PricklyAnon?

>>18162 Fascinating. What exactly did you post?

>>18154 I wonder if that sack of shit getting so butthurt and purging people is the reason the board has so much pedo shit on it these days? Wouldn't be surprised if he just let all his pedo buddies openly start posting on the site after getting rid of the people that would point it out.

“You sure you want to do this,” you ask as you park, “you don’t have to if you don’t feel like it.” >”It’s taking too long for spring to come, I need to do something before I go mad,” Rosie huffs, “besides- it's the least I could do with all they’re doing for us.” You unbuckle yourself, “Alright, alright.” >The weekend had arrived, and with it, your arrangement with Dawn and Sonata. >After she’s freed herself from her seatbelt, Rosie and you step out of the car and take a look at what you’re dealing with. >It was a two-story house of decent size, reminding you of one of the places you had lived in when you were younger. >A single open garage with a few boxes containing the remainder of what needed to be unpacked scattered about was your entrance into the domicile. >From the looks of it, they shouldn’t even need your help to finish the rest of this off. >While you’re observing, from around the corner of the door that leads from the garage to inside stepped the white alicorn. >”Oh hello, you two, you’re here early. Thanks for taking the time to drive out to help us.” Dawn said. You wave a hand dismissively as she gestures with her head for you to follow her, “It’s the least we could do, ‘sides, Rosie’s saying she’s starting to come down with a case of cabin fever.” >”I don’t blame her,” she sighs, “this winter feels like it’s taking years to pass.” >Once inside you find the house is sparsely furnished, which makes sense since they didn’t have much to begin with, and they doubtless don’t have much of an idea where to start- as they’ve only seen your house and more than likely Telmacher’s. >Also of note is the lack of a certain two-tone temptress. >Eh, you’ll probably bump into her eventually. >Dawn walked over a bookshelf with a box of textile bolts next to it, “These are Sonata’s, Rosie, could you start putting these up? If you run out of space and can’t reach higher up, don’t worry about it; stack the remainder to the side, then go ahead and bring in another box from the garage, Sonata will take care of the rest and let you know what to do from there.” >Rosie nodded, and then got to work, humming to herself all the while.

>>18221 >It takes a few seconds as you visibly see the gears turning in her head, but her expression suddenly turns to shock as what you said finally registers with her, “What? No! I would never- I mean, not that I think you’re-” she groans, before shaking her head as if she was trying to physically reorient her own thoughts, “Rosie’s worried about you, and frankly, so are Sonata and I.” >The bemused expression that had creeped onto your face at Dawn’s flustered stammering vanishes instantly, and you start walking forward and reaching for the door. “Nothing for you to worry about, now if you’ll excuse me-” >Warmth suffuses you as you’re turned around and pushed back. >When you turn back towards the door, you see Dawn has a determined expression on her face and her horn is awash in an amber glow. >You stare at her for a second before attempting to step forward, only to be met with the same result. >Before you could even make a third attempt, you’re pushed backwards until the back of your knees hit the cot, and you collapse onto it. >”Sorry if I’m being rough,” Dawn says, approaching you, “I’m used to manipulating smaller or heavier objects.” >You’d probably make a comment at her unintended entendre at the start of that sentence, but all you manage to do is wince slightly at her managing to both injure your knees and your pride in one sweep by unintentionally calling you lanky. “I’ve dealt with worse.” >An ‘oof’ comes out of you as Dawn hops into your lap, but the heat that emanates from her soothes any of the pain that might have come from her landing. >”Want to talk about it?” “Doesn’t seem like I have much of a choice,” you grumble. >”We just want to know what’s been bothering you.” “Fine,” you sigh, “but I’m going to give you the Cliff Notes version because the less I talk about this the better.” >Dawn says nothing, opting to just lean her head against you instead and wrap her forelegs around your torso as best she can.

>>18222 I’m supposed to be smarter than that, more mature, if I was then maybe he wouldn’t have…” >You feel your heart thundering in your chest as you inhale, and when you exhale you slump against the wall as your anger dissipates like wisps of smoke. “The doctors tried to assure me it wasn’t my fault, that it was his time in the Army, all the smokes, booze, and age catching up with his heart, but I knew the stress I caused him didn’t help, especially with all that and mom’s passing so close together. Just like that, both my parents were gone, and it felt like it was all my fault- if I had just been a better doctor, a better son, maybe they’d still be alive. But I wasn’t, and instead I’ve wasted everything they’ve done for me, without the possibility of ever paying them back.” >Dawn stays quiet as she lies against you to adjust to your current posture, her head now resting against your chest, and her eyes saying she’s patiently waiting for you to continue. “Mom made me promise to go back to medical school, but after dad, I couldn’t do it. I was petrified at the thought that my inadequacy would lead to a patient dying, one mistake, and someone would never see their brother, sister, son, daughter, mother, father, whatever, ever again. I couldn’t handle the possibility, coward that I am. My future handed to me on a silver platter and I managed to fuck it up…sometimes I wonder if it would have been better if I had stayed dead that day, given my parents a few years of grief instead of leaving them a lifetime of disappointment with their leech of a son.” >Dawn’s brow furrows at your statement and her tail whips against your leg, “A parent never gets over the loss of a child, they would have carried that pain until the end of their lives.” You open your mouth to ask where that came from, but remember your first meeting with her, and what she said about the “husks”, then sigh, “You’re right, sorry.” >”It’s fine, but you still haven’t addressed the question of what’s been bothering you.” ... https://ponepaste.org/4579#1376 Figured I'd post whatever I had so there's something to show for for this year

>>18208 Neat, avent seen this one before

>>18096 ETA for artpack? I am hella busy but I can scramble one pic if I give few minutes of work every day into it.

>>18196 Late Nov most likely

Oh shit, you guys are still making art packs. I mentioned this a year or two ago, but never got around to contributing myself because I couldn't work around the themes. I see I'm too late to contribute now. I should start monitoring this place again so I can participate in the next pack.

>>18216 There's definitely still time to contribute if you want to, this is probably going to later in the month.

>>18216 >I see I'm too late to contribute now. You aren't though. The submission window got extended.>>18166

Heil mares!

reposting new art

>>17796 It's some really nice new art. Cute outfit.

I love snowponies so much! A shame thete isn't any CYOAs about them

:frostbeam:

>>18185 Cute!

her job is being best pony and is the peaceful equivalent of the hunter, keeping animal populations in check, without hunting

I want to breed her lovingly

>>18150 Absolutely

>>18164 Trixie’s stage name arose iteratively. As a young filly, the Adorable yet Inexperienced Trixie learned from her father that if she wanted to make it in show biz, she needed something to distinguish herself from the burbling masses of other, less-talented performers, and there was no better place to start than her stage name. Her very first inspiration was “Arrivederci”, which she had heard from other performers. She loved the way the rolled ‘r’ sounded and practiced it obsessively until she was rolling her ‘r’s in everything, including “Trrrixie Lulamoon”. Not too shortly after came “Trrrixie the Grrreat” —double the rolling, double the fun. As Trixie’s tastes became more refined, she realized ponies needed a nice dramatic buildup before they could be subjected to the sheer magnificence of Trixie’s name, sort of like a drum roll—thus, “The Grrreat Trrrixie”. However, having two rolled r’s so close to each other felt a bit excessive. “The Great and Glorious Trixie” was a candidate, but reminded her too much of griffon titles. Finally, in her teenage years, Trixie settled on the brilliant and inventive title that now bedazzles her audiences all across Equestria: “the Grrrreat and Powerful Trrrixie!

>>18165 Really love your take on it. Trixie is very underrated mare.

Best pony.

Cheerilee deserved better, bros

>>1005 I'll give her better when I get to Equestria.

She's wet.

>>16972 That's a pretty good tea Anon.

She's HOT on the case. Get it?

>>18152 Pic three kinda makes me want to tease Rarity by showing off all my tacky outfits to her. Example: this great shirt my brother gave me.

Droner, ready for insertion

>>16041 That one always makes me laugh

Not sure if there are any plonebros left on this site or if it's just me, but I'm gonna do a majority of my posting here. I'm the guy who's working on a planepony tabletop game, with any luck it'll be done by January and ready for a debut at Mare Fair 3.

>>18116 Never really got the appeal of plones, but the tabletop game sounds cool. Be sure to post results.

>>18119 Plone thread got archived by all the fucking tamers shit, I can't make threads so I'm planting my roots here

Sleepy apples.

>>16585 I want to fall asleep with her

>>16585 Appletastic.

>>16591 Before going to bed, I always imagine that I'm holding her next to me. I always have good dreams. Not a single nightmare since I started doing it.

>>36 Kissing mares are so amazing. Idk what about other kind of amres but draft mare's lips are so rough yet the inside and tongue is so soft. Plus fact she chosing to be gentle even if she cold bite off your jaw. TOP UNF

>>18122 I love drafts and their hybrids. Drafts are less prone to freakouts, have chill and calm personalities. They are easier to negotiate with.

>>925 Hmm, makes sense actually. Rarity would probably just follow the latest Canterlot trends with trendy flashy dildos, and get some ideas from Coco. but Twi would invent all kinds of new things to stick up her ass and make a scientific paper on which one is the most fun.

>>999 That's a nice ponut.

A letter for you, but what gryphon sent it?

theres still no ggf thread on /MLP/ we need to discuss griffons or hippogriffs

>>18016 Well nobody seems to want to discuss them here. Was there something you had in mind?

>>18022 I like the griffons, but the site is rather bereft of posters to support a niche like this

>>18117 It seems like it's only a few threads that get any regular posts. I wish they weren't seen as so niche and only used for boring shitposts but there doesn't really seem to be much that can be done about that.

Ah, that is some awful timing. Not having a separate thread for the new art pack is just messy, and the October launch is obviously impossible for anyone attending Mare Fair, Anniversary stream, and Ponycon Holland.

>>18065 I propose to extebd the release to the early Nov

>>18065 Does it suit? Also, probably should make a new thread for accepting submissions, so it stands out more.

>>18091 I like it.

>>18091 Planning thread: >>18096

>>17690 That would be wonderful because I can't pick up on subtle cues too well. Imagine how much fun going to the circus would be with her.

>>17727 I'm always myself, but the negative thoughts are always there. Not negative thoughts exactly, but a sort of background depression or melancholy. It appeared when I became a teenager and has never gone away. Makes it hard to be happy. Wish I could just be naturally happy like Derpy. She's lucky that way.

>>17731 Seems to be the human way, sadly. If it makes you feel any better, many of us are right there with you and we are all brothers in Derp and all that mushy stuff. Best of luck, brother!

>>1980 god i love her and i love this thread. im goning to marry her and make her the happiest poni

>>18005 Oh fuck Is this AI?

warrior princess

>>18017 Is she on the moon? Who is she battling there?

>>18019 Dunno, it seems more like Everfree

>>18019 >>18017 >>18021 She's probably fighting moon goblins wielding impractical swords; like in Gloryhammer.

>>6240 Comfy.

My favorite hug.

Implied here IMO

>>15295 I like this hug so much that I got stickers of it. Every time I look at it, my heart feels warm and it seems like the universe is ok after all.

>>14177 >>14178 Yeah...

>>9233 Dug through the archives and really liked the Lily Lace greens I saw. Decided to make these comics for her.

>>17866 So cute, I love it Anon.

>>15037 Yes it would sound strange. Fortunately or unfortunately English has some French influence. That's generally where the words full of unpronounced letters comes from. The Old English and Saxon parts of English tend to be pronounced how they are spelled (exceptions exist of course).

>>7552 I like both my language dub and original english. Some improvised jokes in brazilian portuguese are pure kino.

>>15804 Fuck.

It's nhnb's year baby!

Show's over, go back...

>>17966 Two days ago there was an interesting thread on 4chan about some mod over on EQD named Calpain who got kicked out. Aside from the usual personality discussions there was also an interesting discussion about the comparative freedom people have on 4channel vs EQD or Twitter to express themselves. Well lo and behold, just before I can post to it the thread disappears without notice. No explanation. Two days later, the threads get wiped. Some bullshit notice about fuckup-mods + kill switches.. So what do I do? I post a comment about the thread that disappeared two days ago. What happens to my comment? Gone like everything else. It isn't over.

>>7259 Celestia is the greatest

I wish I could share a muffin with this mare

>>7260 Agreed.

Should we do a Hearts and Hooves Day artpack? If so, when to start? When due?

>>17958 My guess would be February. Also we have currently an artpack going, sort of. Check the art pack thread on the catalog.

>>17694 >>17696 >>17700 Knowing her, there's a decent chance she'll get all giddy and decide to pick both, giggling at the thought of conducting such a thorough analysis while Spike groans and puts on a pot of tea for the inevitable all-nighter.

twidoodle

>>17931 She sure looks like she's having fun.

>>17931 Everyday is fun when you can read books! Honestly, I love how bookhors gets so happy about learning.

>>17931 Cutie.

>>17864 NTA but this sounds nice. Wish I could go. Never met any other pony enthusiasts in real life. Would be interesting at least.

>>17864 >this year's venue is as chill with the rules as the last one, Sadly the opposite seems to be a case from what I've read in the threads, as in the hotel rules they hilight the fact they will be butthurt about brining outside food to the hotel space (I would imagine chilling with a beer is a big no). I guess this is the price for having a con in a professionally run hotel (like look up their even list, it's either wedding, tech corporation meet ups or sales pitches parties for businessman and associates). Bit sad but than again nobody could had predicted the old hotel would go down this year.

>>17924 Last year's hotel also had all that stuff in the rules too, the staff just didn't give a fuck; it's a vibes thing. So there is still some small hope there.

not only did the staff not give a fuck, they told the con organizers that we were some of the best behaved groups they'd had

That may be, but I'm not sure if I'm willing to try my luck. The old hotel had plenty of experience with gamer/anime/furry conventions so I would imagine dealing with awkward but yet chill neckbeards was a calming experience (like you have stated, MF attendants were pretty well behaved). Than again there is no point in worrying at this point, if it's good then that's great but if it's shit then MF3 will happen at a different hotel.

>>3875 >Luna I don't really like fandom music that much. So, I don't have a collection of songs specifically about Luna. However, here's some music that makes me think of Luna. 1. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mTWvlwZ7AJw&list=PLFQiAre6xWjf3Uh-UE6nT7Y97vHdXk53W&index=113[Embed] - Music for when Luna takes Equestrian troops into battle. Her face is stern and grave. She has on brilliant silver armor, and her exquisite halberd is by her side. She's charging toward the enemy. She's full of grit and determination in that moment. She and her troops will not fail. 2. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1viUagdHYRA[Embed] - When I hear this I think of Luna when she reminisces about her family who passed away more than a thousand years ago and she gets misty eyed. Or, at other times she's feeling sad or melancholy. 3. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c1j5IOZmh6g[Embed] - Luna likes playing elaborate, Rube-Goldberg tier pranks on Celestia and the other palace courtiers. Once a prank is triggered, it spirals outward in ever expanding layers of comedy as more and more trip wires are passed that initiate other sub-pranks. This music makes me imagine Luna watching it all unfolding, and laughing, from a balcony. Alternatively, It makes me imagine her taking part in a stately palace dance. She's dressed in a gorgeous gown and her finest jewelry. She nods magnanimously to other participants of the dance as she moves about the floor. She is the very epitome of elegance, and she is a supreme dancer. 4. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ikDS1TBAElo[Embed] - Makes me think of the challenges she's overcome, her determination, her persistence, her emotional endurance, and her faith that everything will turn out well. Also, it reminds me of how Luna seems to have a void within her. She's always searching to find that which will fill it. It somehow means something about the triumph of her soul over her troubles. Or, maybe it reflects my desire to help and be there for her. I dunno; something like that. 5. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2p5lV1i-gWQ[Embed] - Makes me imagine like I am watching Luna from afar in the part of the dream realm where she has her sanctum of safety and peace. She's moving about with a lovely smile, enjoying all the beautiful ethereal nature and calmness of the place.

>>17911 How about this?

>>12995 I want to brush skelemare's teeth

How shiny are Minuette's teeth?

I will brush my teeth tonight in order to make Minuette proud of me!

Why does she stare?

>>17917 Ponies are naturally curious. She's trying to figure out if (you) would be a good friend.

>>761 After getting to Equestria I would've immediately try to woo Zecora

>>761 >ponut a different color from the pussy That's kind of interesting.

>>17651 Do it! You can make updates as well. Mine also got wiped out. So, I'll rewrite mine as well. Cheers!

>>17651 Nice, Gilda is wonderful. I'm interested to hear what you have to say.

>>15187 I thought it was a shame that Dash's raspy voice started disappearing as the show went on. A bunch of voices changed and it feels like the show lost something even just with that. >>17651 It's still a disorganised mess but here: >Who is your waifu? Gilda >Why is she your waifu? I love her voice and she's beautiful. Extremely hot too. Her distinctive eye shadow marks do a lot for me. With all those fluffy feathers, I bet she feels great to cuddle with, although she would never admit it. She must have stayed in shape to keep up with Rainbow. Gilda seems to be the kind of person who has a few really good friends rather than a lot of sorta friends, which is what I am too. She was willing to do the Junior Speedsters dance for Rainbow even though she thought it was lame and embarrassing, so she clearly values her friendships. I bet she's a sweetheart deep down, even if she's reluctant to show it in public. I think Gilda would be pretty supportive, even if it was in an "us against the world" kind of way. There's more, but I think it's buried in "things I just know" rather than easily recalled and explained. It's much harder than I expected to convey my feelings for her. >How long have you known your waifu? I think it was love at first sight, but I didn't realise it for a while. That would make it since I first watched the show, so around 13 years now. >Your waifu is now standing in front of you and appears scared with apprehension. How do you respond? I'd have to try incredibly hard to avoid blurting out that I wanted to go to Equestria to be with her, not have her get stuck in this shithole. I suppose I'd try to calm her down and avoid getting clawed up in a panic. I don't have any emergency catnip to throw at her.

>>17874 Cool waifu. She's certainly an intriguing personality. Her guardedness can make any relationship with her feel intimate, I think. Here's to fluffy chest feathers and beak snips and paw-patting!

>>5972 >Who is your waifu? Princess Luna. I call her "Lulu", and I love her smile when I say it. >Why is she your waifu? I love her in every way! We are both socially reserved and we lean on each other to get through confusing social situations. Yet, between each other we feel completely open. She's an intellectual (as I am), and we enjoy exploring what we are curious about and discussing fascinating things in the natural world, history, in the heavens, or other such subjects. I appreciate that she's a clever ruler and strategist. I love listening to her going over plans for infrastructure improvement or how she intends to diplomatically entrap the enemy kingdoms of Equestria. Sometimes, I can offer valuable input. It makes her smile, and that smile makes the rest of the world stop! Of course, she is more gorgeous and sexy than any other pony! Words can't even encompass how sexy she is! She's subtle, sultry, and seductive when hinting at intimacy (though sometimes, when it suits her, she is very direct). Then, she's like a wild and passionate hurricane in bed! Afterward, I love to trace the constellations on her flanks; it makes her giggle. It brings me happiness to no end to lavish her with love, attention, and romance. We go for walks in the moonlit Canterlot streets, we play pranks on Celestia (who gets us back eventually), we spend hours in the Royal Observatory visiting with the stars, and sometimes making love in the optics lab, we visit the forest at night where all the night creatures (wolves, owls, etc.) come to visit her - because I'm with Luna, they let me pet them - and so much more. Being an expert in weaponry, she has insisted on teaching me swordplay. I adore how she takes no guff and demands high standards from my sword work! In our sparring matches, when I let my guard down, she bonks me on the head (gently). If I drop my guard too much, she might end up whacking me in the nuts (lovingly; not too hard). Then she'll smile seductively with those cosmic bedroom eyes of hers and teasingly say something like "Keep your guard up, Anon. Don't let my property get damaged! You must know that I like them just the way they are!" That smile makes me melt inside! Sometimes we meet in our dreams. When that happens we end up going on the most rip-roaring and zany adventures! In one dream we shrank to the size of bugs. Then we had to save all the cute little forest bugs, whose sovereign was the esteemed Beetle King, from the evil Lizard Lord. It was wild! Though I am a mere mortal human, I do my best to show how much I love and appreciate her. I strive to end my bad habits and improve myself, to give her a better version of myself every day. In short, I feel like Luna and I trust each other and fit together like puzzle pieces! >How long have you known your waifu? About five months or so. It just sort of hit me out of the blue. She's just the right mare for me, and I think I would be good for her - at least, I hope so, and I try to make that true. >Your waifu is now standing in front of you and appears scared with apprehension. How do you respond? I go to her immediately and hug her. Then I hold her hoof, place my hand gently on her check, look deeply into her eyes, and smile. I say something like "What's wrong, Lulu? How can I help? Surely it can't be that bad. Whatever's wrong we'll get through it together, and I'll be right here to support you, or even save you if need be!" Then, I do whatever is necessary to solve the problem and bring her happiness!

>skipped 3rd anniversary bros...

>>17881 When is the actual anniversary. June?

>>17884 Yes, 28th. Site was down so that's some justification at last anyways, I'm posting 3 yays

>>17885 Slipped right by me. Hard to believe it's already been three years.

>>16307 She bought the wings and horn on Craigslist.

>>16315 Very economical of her. She's clearly a mare that knows how to save money and make a good deal.

>>17600 Cute! On a separate note, I think all the flower mares, those with flower related cutie marks, must have cheerful dispositions generally (except maybe Inky Rose). Thoughts?

Was buying bread the other day and thought about how neat it'd be to try a loaf from a pony whose cutie mark was in bread-making. That in tandem with the 2-for-1 deal I found at the store inspired me to draw these.

>>17858 Exceptionally cute. Deserving of accolades. Worthy of high praise. You remind me of why I love ponies.

>>17858 I love this very much, anon! Thank you for posting!

>>15801 ywn hatch machiavellian plots with evil Twilight, and gloat over your enemies when you succeed. Why even live.

Is evil Twilight extra lewd to get her way?

>>16099 Damn, that's kinda hot. I could go for some of that.

>>16099 >>17855 Would you study The 48 Laws of Power with her?

>>17856 I would gladly study the first ten and fall asleep for the rest. Hopefully she'll let me cheat off her during the exam.

>>17505 What happened to her to make her so twisted?

>>17591 >rape

>>17591 She was put up for adoption.

Do you suppose she lays out her Evil plans long in advance? Or, does she excute ideas on the fly as they come to her?

This filly needs love.

>>17820 It's not hard to 'maintain', there's not really much daily maintenance involved. If you love your tulpa you will want to talk to her. What could definitely be hard for you and other OCD types would be staying grounded. For example, it's fairly common for tulpas to express the same habit of self-loathing that the host may have - i.e. the hatred for yourself comes out of the tulpa's mouth. This can become a real problem if you believe the tulpa actually just like, changed, and now hates you! It requires a degree of self-awareness and careful management of your identities. I imagine OCD style thinking can get swept up into nightmarish anxiety before you really even get the clarity to notice something is off, but all it takes is a moment of clarity to come back to baseline. A grounded tulpamancer can see that this and other off-kilter of behaviors aren't aligned with the actual core values of the tulpa, and is thus able to just dismiss things like that as an intrusive thought - just as a singlet would ignore moments of out of character thought or action with "I just wasn't myself". Remember your husbando loves you and wouldn't want to suddenly start hurting you or growing distant from you. Since a tulpa shares your mind, they feel the pain (and joy) they inflict as if it were their own. Solid reasoning like that is how you stay grounded.

>>17821 Thanks, and will do. I have tried reading the entirety of this thread before but the explanations all seemed so... "high level", that I thought I should just get started on the real deal and see how it goes.

>>17823 Yeahhh that's more my fault than yours. I'm so into this I have to like fight the tendency to spiral into high level theory stuff and stay focused on the super basics. The thing is like, to deconstruct the harmful bs that the tulpa community spews all over the internet, I feel like it takes some real theory, and real theory is always going to be more complicated and high level than simple bs. Really the basic idea of tulpamancy is twofold: to look critically at your mind and how it works, and to imagine your waifu doing this alongside you. There aren't any definite stages of progression there, just an always-deepening appreciation of what you and your waifu actually are.

How do (you) spend time with your tulpa? What kinds of things do (you) talk about with her? I would really like to have my tulpa hang out with me while I cook and do other things, but I have a hard time splitting my attention between her and whatever activity I happen to be doing at the time. We also seem to just silently agree on a lot of things, so conversing can sometimes be a challenge. I brought this up to her and she thinks us agreeing is not a problem, and that I will get better at splitting my attention with time.

>>17826 She's right! But at the same time, it's worth considering the notion that your mind only has so much attention, and you can either focus completely on something or badly focus on two things. Some stuff is fine if you aren't fully attending to it, like menial work, but some stuff like entertainment is pointless if not fully immersed - for that kind of stuff, you could try just focusing on one thing at a time, taking breaks to talk to your tulpa about it and go over it. You will definitely get better at holding your tulpa in mind while also focusing on other stuff, or coming back to her when you get distracted, but there's still always a give-and-take wrt to attention. Agreement with a tulpa is a natural consequence of being originally the same mind - you share all the same influences. Of course, having no differences is boring, because that's just you being you; it's also comforting because there's no conflict whatsoever. Every bit of distinction - points of identity where the tulpa is distinguishable from the host - is a movement away from this boring comfort, towards greater "independence" and greater potential for friction (and growth). Your tulpa can move along this axis, sometimes being very agreeable and responsive to you, sometimes being very opinionated and different from you, pushing you to challenge your views. Ideally, you and your tulpa understand this and adapt to your needs, so she can offer profound comfort and empathy when needed, and push you out of your comfort zone when you're ready - your needs are constantly changing and a tulpa is able to adapt to bring both of you the best experience possible. So, what to talk about since you have the same mind? Having the same experience makes any interaction that relies on going over old information very boring. So the most satisfying kind of interaction with a tulpa is about NEW information! It's about being witty, clever, and creative. Your tulpa can help develop a new perspective on your old opinions, philosophy, or even memories; you can crack jokes and witticisms to each other about something; she can artistically change her form to show off her sense of aesthetics, like becoming a stained glass window; all these are about exercising creativity and experiencing something new together. They may also still be boring if they feel forced - by far the most important thing here is that you are spending time together out of a genuine love for each other and what you are in the present, not out of the desire to reach some future ideal via discipline and rote practice. Personally I mostly spend time with my tulpa when I can purely focus on her, like during the morning and evening while in bed; sometimes there are moments of rest or otherwise unoccupied moments through the day where I really enjoy her company too. In the past we were pretty interested in exploring the possibilities of tulpamancy together and tried lots of stuff that sounded theoretically neat, like playing turn based games hot-seat style, or exploring an imaginary world together, etc.; but none of them really captured our interest in the same way as just purely focusing on each other. Honestly, our relationship has always revolved around intimacy; if I could hold her in my mind and stare into her eyes forever, I would spend days every month to do only that. Everything we do together is only to keep the monkey brain entertained so that a deeper part of us can peacefully delight in just appreciating each others' presence. In spirit of that, cuddling and sex are the most important activities for us by far. I could not imagine a world where I'm still doing tulpamancy after this long without any of that. She is my wife, more than that, and our sexual bond is the supremely joyous symbol of our separation and our unity, and the love which drives both - it's holy to us.

Scenario: You and Tavi have different favorite soccer teams. Would this be a problem? If so, how do you prevent this from creating problems between you and Tavi? Be specific. This is a question of vital importance.

>>17184 Maybe Chrysalis left Cadence with an egg?

>>16871 >Welp. I've been gone long enough that either nobody cares anymore, or anyone who does care no longer visits this place. Likely a bit of both. Apologies for the late reply, but I couldn't help but chime in after checking on this site to see how things were doing. It isn't a surprise that you got nothing in terms of engagement. Things have petered off in the fandom since your last post, and especially for this site. Add to the fact that you've been gone for all this time, it was safe to assume this project was yet another that could be added into the "deadfic" pile. I certainly thought this project to be of this state after radio silence after all this time. I am happy to see that at least partially, there's a chance for this work to continue in *some* form. But you are going to have to rebuild the community you had once more, seeing as they have probably left for other pastures due to a lack of activity for this work. And seeing how quiet it is here, you'll need to venture to other sites like Fimfiction, /mlp/ and wherever else you can scrounge up some engagement. As it is, the MLP fandom is in a very stagnant, somewhat dead state. Contrary to my expectations and ambivalence towards it, G5 hasn't done as well as I would have expected, playing it rather safe and resulting in mediocre to low engagement numbers. Which, in retrospect, isn't a surprise. The landscape that made MLP popular in the first place is no longer in effect, with it being another passing fad that is now dust in the wind. What is there is mostly self contained cliques that do their own thing, and is certainly no grounds for looking beyond that. Hence, you'll need to actively promote your work if you ever hope to get back into the swing of things, with an update of *some* sort to boot, even if small as 5000 words. -

>>17430 - I must contradict you in regards to hiding your work from common view. Whilst the project may no longer be updating as of its current state, that is no reason alone to hide it from anyone else from enjoying what you have already put up there. Plenty of dead fics get a trickle of engagement of some form, even if they may forever be consigned to the grave for one reason or another. I myself still read dead fics from time to time, enjoying what is there despite the incomplete nature of them. Merely change to title and description to indicate its hiatus, with perhaps an extra note edited into the introduction or elsewhere, and leave it at that. As it is, your work is one of the very few of the "old" guard that I enjoy, having no love for what FiM turned into during its mid and later seasons. I certainly don't care for what they did to the changelings, the gryphons, and other stuff with the lore that is now firmly embedded in the fandom's zeitgeist, having recontextualized all fandom output in terms of discussion and fan creations from then on going forward. They aren't all "bad" persay, but despite filling the world in, it feels emptier and more hollow in some ways than ever, the mystery filled in by what ultimately amounted to just adequate but ultimately mediocre "content" that exists to fill in the void for the sake of it. Alas, the mystery that was left in the earlier seasons where all sorts of diversity was to be had in filling in that void ourselves is no longer present, and part of the reason why engagement as a whole is not what it used to be. Speaking for no one but myself, there is little to nothing that has really engaged me with this fandom or FiM itself, save for in the form of old fan output or some newer projects that somehow miraculously managed to divest itself from modern FiM to do its own thing, such as that 4chan AI episode that turned out quite nicely as a blast from the past. https://youtu.be/QLGlrY7cooY It's a shame to see if your work would truly disappear, but ultimately it is up to you. I only ask you leave it up as a record for posterity, for what once was for anyone else that might eventually stumble across it for what had once been. -

>>16795 Here you go, more mares

what haooened to 4?

>>16796 CUUUUUTE

More mare.

Lightning Dust is great! She inspires me to be better.

>>17771 >Loses out on her dream >Makes a new, better dream Fuck yeah!

>>17771 Cute mare!

>>15766 Would you say that they act... Cheerilee?

>>10231 Was inspired by this beautiful picture (Daisy in particular being the very definition of modest, innocent beauty) to make a small animation: https://files.catbox.moe/tpfcqn.mp4 (also attached is a picture to be considered after the animation)

>>17742 That's a really cool animation Anon.

>>17730 Most of them were before the downtime, I don't even remember what they were about any more. Has cloudflare been unusually aggressive for anyone else? I keep having to go through the are you human checks every time and the auto thread refresh thing keeps breaking because of it. I never had to go through it before.

>>17728 That's the downside, unfortunately. I really don't understand it. I suppose Anons really do prefer the drama and monkey chimp poo flinging that happens on /mlp/. The format here is different, but not substantially so. It bans EqG and other bullshit, but that doesn't account for a majority of the fandom anyway. It probably just boils down to the same reason people only use Google when other, equally effective, and more private search engines exist. Google captured the market share and its name became synonymous with internet search. By the same token /mlp/ has become synonymous, within the fandom, with where to poni poni on the internet. >>17729 >Contribute I wrote two greens that I posted here. I make it a point also, to post something once a day at least here. Was really active on the Fungeon thread until the OP had to stop for personal reasons. I plan on getting back into writing and posting here though. The problem with posting on /mlp/ is that nobody really cares. Here I usually get a few responses and feedback.

>>17728 >>17729 I try to contribute with conversations at times, but mostly it's just reporting the... 'spam' that crops up. ew. >>17733 Careful what you wish for. A large majority of activity on /mlp/ is astroturfing (eqgtards) or astroturfing (g5, aka eqgtards wearing a dog mask). As evidenced by /qa/ threads, they WILL try every option to get their foot in the door, and bitchwhine and screech when they're told 'no' and attempt every 'gotcha!' possible. And, when that doesn't work, they'll contact their buttbuddies on the /mlp/ jannie team to suppress any word-of-mouth advertisement.

>>17761 >A large majority of activity on /mlp/ is astroturfing (eqgtards) or astroturfing (g5, aka eqgtards wearing a dog mask). >As evidenced by /qa/ threads, they WILL try every option to get their foot in the door, and bitchwhine and screech when they're told 'no' Why are they like this? Why can't they just enjoy piny in a comfy way? Why do they feel the need to spread their corruption as far as possible? I feel that the answers to these must be bound up in significant mental illness on their part. It's something they share in common with authoritarians, sociopaths, narcissists, and other dark triad people. I k ow it's slow here, bit It's nice to know that there are sites that are trying to keep these maniacs out. I feel like derpibooru is a good example of what they do when allowed to run rampant. They take over a space and make it ugly, dysfunctional, and unpleasant. Basically, to use that space you are forced to sift through all their trash and shit. Here's a comfy Derpy for good measure.

>>17762 Evil cannot create, only corrupt or destroy. Simple as. And yeah, Derpibooru is a perfect example. >Derpy mare!
