New chapter is (finally) up! Sorry about not running it past you first, @Street Light, I just wanted to get it published already. I was so behind...

Banned for mentioning Schrödinger's cat on a pony forum.

I see, my bad. It would still be fun to do, though!

I humbly offer a roleplay with Smoky Shield, who is another Guard member.

I haven't seen any of the older generations either (I haven't even seen all of G4), but I think the main reason is that it has been overshadowed by...everything. G1 was the OG My Little Pony, and pretty decent to boot. G3 was an attempt to capitalize on the direct-to-video craze and suffered, therefore becoming a sort of 'cursed' or 'bad' generation because of that. G4 was, well, G4, and G5 was a massive flunk commercially that was so discussed because it came directly on the heels of the rise of one of the most influential fandoms in modern history, and possibly helped tank that fandom. G2 just doesn't have anything special that makes people want to watch it. It just exists.

Hey all, I was wondering if anyone else played BattleTech (the tabletop game, not the video game). I'm an avid, if new player, and I have already made a few custom 'Mechs for A Game of Armored Combat. For those who don't know, BattleTech is a game set in the far future, where war is waged primarily with giant walking war machines known as BattleMechs.

Banned for redacting the reason for a ban.

Banned for not speaking about the acts.

Thank you for reading it! I don't care if you critique here or in PMs—you can do it either way.

It's been eight hundred years since the return of Nightmare Moon and the rise of the Elements of Harmony, and Equestria is under siege. Several years ago, the Griffonian armies landed in Equestria, surprising the defenders and pushing them back. Despite what was supposed to be a quick counteroffensive by the Equestrians, the conflict has settled into a near-stalemate, with both sides taking heavy losses as the Griffons slowly but steadily push toward Canterlot. Equestrian troop numbers are dwindling, and to replace their losses, the Princesses are throwing everything they have into the fray, scraping the bottom of the barrel. Among the bottom-feeders sent to the frontline is Operani Linux, a batpony and IT technician with the Equestrian Army Reserves. Despite having no combat experience, Linux and her comrades must adapt quickly if they hope to survive the meat grinder of war. Rated T for violence, death, dark themes, etc., etc. Link: https://www.fimfiction.net/story/577342/the-reservist

Even if @mistrene is not available, I would certainly be willing to do a 1x1 roleplay with you! However, I would consider it advisable to wait a little bit in case they are still interested.

Aye, seems to be something wrong with the upload... I am working with Pony.fm support to fix the issue as soon as possible, fortunately!

Hello! I'd be willing to join if you are still open for a roleplay. I have Amber Light and Smoky Shield, whichever you prefer (either of their presences could be explained away with a temporary reassignment for any number of reasons).

I can see a rainbow In your tears as they fall on down I can see your soul grow Through the pain as they hit the ground

I saw that and have contacted their Support line. It seems like there might be an issue on their end, but I am not entirely sure. Either way, I will do my best to get it functioning as soon as possible. Sorry about that!

An older song I composed a while back on MuseScore. It's a classical piece, and I think it fits Octavia well. Link:
