About this blog

My thoughts on EVERYTHING. No seriously, I reflect on world events, MLP and such from my OC's standpoint. Seems fun and entertaining.

Need opinions

Hello! I am trying to decide if I want to update Dusk's design. Here is her new design and old design. What do you all think? Note: These images are AI-generated as a reference for my artist.

When RP isn't just a game

There is a quiet kind of magic in roleplay—not the kind born from spells or stars, but from something far softer and far rarer: two souls choosing to build a story together. It begins so simply. A character. A setting. A single whispered line: “Would you like to write with me?” And somehow, from that small beginning, entire worlds awaken. Roleplay is more than words on a page. It is trust. It is vulnerability. It is the gentle handing over of a character—someone made of t

Writing when lonely

There are kinds of loneliness that have no language. Not the simple kind—where one spends an evening alone and wishes for company—but the quieter, heavier sort. The kind where others can surround you and still feel unseen. Where your thoughts echo only inside your own chest with nowhere to go. In those moments, writing is not simply a hobby. It is a lifeline. When we write, we are no longer voiceless. The page becomes a listener that never interrupts, never sighs, never tells us w

Understanding

There is a special place in this world for ponies who reach out—unasked—and choose to sit beside you in troubled times. The ones who notice the hurt or the quiet joy and stay with you in it. Sometimes they offer jubilant laughter or gentle words of comfort. Sometimes they say nothing at all. They simply remain—a steady presence in the silence. It’s a hoof brushing yours to remind you you’re still here. It’s a wing drawn over your shoulders so you can feel the warmth of togetherness when the wo

Pony, Interrupted

Hello, dear ponies—and friends of every kind. As I near a turning point in my memoir, I wanted to take a quiet moment to explain how I arrived here, why I returned to the company of ponies after so long away, and where I intend to go from here. Let me take you back to the Celestial Year of 2013. The community then was vibrant, but chaotic. Some would even say unstable. There were those chasing what we called horse fame—ponies who rose to prominence through art, music, business, or

On Nightmare Night\Halloween

On the surface, we all know what this holiday is. Beyond the booming business for every vendor crafting delightful, sugary treats, it marks a change of season — and an excuse to indulge in far too many horror movies. From time to time, I like to step back and reflect on what this holiday truly means to me — and this year, I have the privilege of sharing those thoughts with my new (or perhaps returning) forum family, as well as the wider MLP community. And maybe, in doing so, hearing what it

On new beginnings and rising.

Over the many centuries, I’ve watched countless styles, fads, and trends rise and fade. Ponies have grown beyond old superstitions and prejudice, becoming a far more inclusive and understanding society. Yet even in this brighter world we share, challenges remain, and the journey toward true harmony is far from over. I know something of what it means to have a reputation shattered—to be remembered for your worst act instead of your years of service, kindness, and sacrifice. That is a heavy b

When tone goes wrong in writing

As a writer, I’ve always believed I owe my readers and fellow dreamers my best — not perfection, but presence. The care to craft something alive, with color and heart. That’s the standard I hold myself to. But I stumbled recently during the Running of the Leaves event. There was a moment in play — a light exchange with a batpony — where I said something along the lines of, “Luna said batponies were refined, elegant, and graceful. You are none of those things.” Written out like that, wi

Scam artists

One of the things I adore about my story is the joy it has brought to people. According to statistics from A03, Fanfiction, and Fimfiction, my life has been shared with people worldwide. People have left such lovely comments, but then come the art scammers. They begin to fill up Private Messages, saying they loved my story, but can't name a single scene from it. They throw out numbers like $320.00 for a single character and call it a "deal". They have Discord accounts that are only a month or tw
