Fanfic Writing General

@Psyga315  
Ah, cool. I’ve always wanted to do a randomly generated story.
 
For example, I fed a bunch of background humans into that Hunger Games simulator a while back. I was planning on describing the action through prose supplemented with screenshots of action that the generator spit out, sorta like a mock-let’s play.
 
Anyways, good luck with your project!

@romantiCaveman  
I will.

I believe I’ve talked about World of Warcraft here before, so allow me to induge in that a bit more.
 
Sometimes, reality just writes the (metaphorical) story itself. What I mean is, I considered what role Sunset would have in my hypothetical Wow Au. Her being a blood elf, a magical power seeking mage(or better, a warlock) dabbling in magic too strong for her and opposed to Twilight being a night elf was an easy pick, especially since her transformation in the first movie was a perfect fit for the warlock’s Metamorphosis move.
 
But I recently learned that Warlocks would be losing that particular move for the new demon hunter class. While disappointing since I main a warlock, it brings a new, interesting part to Sunset’s tale.
 
After seeing the horrible things fel magic does, she takes the trials to become a demon hunter both to use it for good, and as an act of penance on her part.
 
I also think Blueblood would be a high elf mage who is really a naga in disguise, but that would require a longer post.

Wow, that’s a lot more in-depth than my idea for a story where Applejack is a (Brewmaster) Monk, Rainbow Dash is a Paladin, and Twilight is a (Balance) Druid.

I’ve also got Celestia as a Naa’ru, and Luna as a Void god, whom shakes Rare’s faith so that she temporarily abandons the use of light as a priest and turns to shadows as a source of comfort, and even after that episode is over, she still dual specializes as a shadow priest(think Nightmare Rare).

You know, I actually like the Equestria Girls world, if only because it gives us a massive world (even bigger than the canon one) that we can build up as we see fit.  
Even if things need a little bit of tweaking in order to get the ball rolling as it was in my case.

@PonyPon
 
I actually had Shadow Priest Rarity modeled after Lil Miss Rarity, since insanity and psychological horror are part of the SPriest’s schtick.

the story of  
Pinkie D. Pie.
 
the mare that ate the Party Party fruit.

@Shadow Star  
What the fuck would that Devil Fruit even do?

@SquiggyBomb  
Probably give her control over confetti or some shit.

Since we’re on the subject of One Piece….
 

 
Rainbow Dash’s lack of swimming ability may not entirely be her fault. She does have a vague memory of getting into trouble after eating a extremely rare and expensive fruit being sold by a traveling salespony; it didn’t even taste good, and it stung her tongue and lips with odd electric tingles. Fortunately, her father didn’t have to pay the salespony…on one condition: that they both forget his face, forget he was ever here, and then he ran off, pursued by Royal Guardsponies for “selling highly illegal items”.
 
From that day, her friends and relatives noted that Rainbow seems to have an almost-constant slight static charge, and marveled that such a young filly was able to break the sound barrier. The shockwave alone should have killed her, or at least broken a few bones. But nope, little Rainbow Dash made history without so much as a scratch.
 
She always did want to be a pirate.

@PonyPon  

 
That would be the shit to see

Okay, serious talk, is it insulting to have a gay character fall for a chick with a dick(not a transgender), this is just a question I want answered.

@PonyPon  
That really, really depends on how its handled and on the tone of the story. If not done right, then yeah it can come across as insulting.
 
Basically if its just her dick that makes the character falls for, then its gonna feel insulting especially if the tone is meant to be fairly serious.

@PonyPon
 
That’s a tough question, you might want to take it to the Fetishes thread

@PonyPon
 
No. That’s a basic hentai plot.

@Psyga315
 
>Implying that basic hentai isn’t insulting

Japan and there shit spewing of fetishes

@And Brother I Hurt People  
Trust me, Futanari is tame compared to the other base hentai concepts like NTR.

Drunk Derpy Hooves.
 
Sweet celestias beard.

@Background Pony #5C85  
Depends, what sort of “drunk” are we talking here? The “silly/uninhibited” drunk, the “sad/unsuppressed” drunk, or the “angry/unrestrained” drunk?

Mad Scinece drunk.  
maybe with a touch of pirate.
 
either way its DOOOM.  
heck its DOOM squared.

So, for my Transformers: Friendship is Magic AU, Spike and Twilight are eventually going to share a “portal” power: Spike controls one end of a portal, and Twilight controls the other. It’s a reference to Twilight’s teleportation powers and Spike’s instant-messaging in the show without either of them being redundant or overpowered, and forces them to develop a strong bond.
 
The thing is, Spike’s gonna be a human and Twilight’s gonna be a giant shapeshifting superpowered alien robot, so I’m trying to figure out both how they end up sharing said power. Right now, I have it planned out in this way:
 
1.) Twilight is a Transformer that is currently in some ethereal “Realm of the Primes”-style spiritual world. It’s there that she’s learned of the coming of Nightmare Moon and has been trying to contact “Celestia Prime” about the coming danger.
 
2.) During his first encounter with the Transformers, average earthling youngster Spike has his phone fall into a malfunctioning ground bridge (Transformer portal).
 
3.) Spike is surprised to recognize his ringtone some time later and find his phone waiting for him outside. It’s heavily implied that his phone took “the long path” through time and space before it ended up back in his hands, and it’s now a powerful Transformer artifact (much like Sari’s key in Transformers: Animated).
 
4.) Answering a mysterious call (from Spike’s missing/dead mother, maybe?) makes the phone generate a massive portal, and Twilight forces her way out of it FLCL-style. (This is meant to  
be an inverse of how Twilight hatched Spike in the MLP show: in this AU, Spike “hatches” Twilight.)
 
5.) Eventually, (probably after a panicking Twilight runs off to try and save the universe from Nightmare Moon’s return by herself) Spike discovers that he can use his phone to make portals to Twilight, and Twilight reasons that she can do the same: on both ends, it’s through a “call” that needs to be “answered” by the other in order to activate the portal.
 
Now, does this make sense? What would make Twilight travel through a portal to the physical world? What is the nature of Celestia and has Twilight made contact with her? Should Spike’s phone be anything more than “mysterious unpredictable artifact?”
 
And also, would Twilight end up becoming a leader of the Mane 7 like in the show? Because, honestly, I’m having trouble imagining why Applejack and Co. would even trust this stranger. Not only is this a setting where they’re in the middle of a species-wide civil war and there’s a lot of paranoia going around, but if Nightmare Moon and Celestia are mythical figures in this setting, Twilight’s gonna sound an awful lot like a mad doomsday prophet (with some really skewed priorities) if she’s ranting about NMM and/or Celestia when there’s Decepticons right on their doorstep.

Starlight Glimmer and/or her village of equals gets the Cutie Pox.

@YetAnotherBrony
 
That…actually makes a lot of sense.
