Chapter Five: Generosity and it's Limits
“…and that’s pretty much everything.” Quiver looked up at the mare beside him and gave a rueful smile. “Quite a bit to unpack, isn’t it?”
Sunrunner’s expression was noticeably sourer than his. “No kidding.” She’d kept silent as her coltfriend had elaborated upon the parts of his life story that she hadn’t already been privy to, mostly everything having to do with his family but also his brief adjustment period to living in Ponyville. Her expression turned regretful as she looked back up at him. “You really almost ended it all?”
He nodded sadly. “Sour slapped me over that. Wouldn’t be shocked if you did the same.”
“I think we can skip that.” She scowled. “And that mare Luster Drain?”
“Locked up and serving time for what she did, but something tells me she won’t be serving her full sentence.” He shrugged.

Chapter Four: Loyalty Is Earned
“Well, I hope I speak for everyone here when I say how delighted I am that the three of you are now in on the full truth!” Rarity paused, and then amended, “At least, the full truth as far as we know it.”
Enough time had passed that the rest of the Rainbooms had congregated at Sunset’s apartment, joining her and the rest of her guests and effectively turning her good news into an excuse for an impromptu party. As Violet Blurr accepted a drink from Pinkie Pie, she wondered aloud, “As far as you know it?”
“Principal Celestia’s admitted that there are a few things she didn’t tell me outright, but that was because of previous promises and obligations more than anything else.” Sunset gave her a reassuring look and explained, “But I figure I’m better off giving the full truth, or at least as much as I can, right upfront. You have to give trust to get it, after al

Many Happy Reunions - Part Three
Chapter Three: Kindness is It's Own Reward
“Okay, let me make sure I understand all of this.” Sunrunner flashed her coltfriend an incredulous look as she repeated, “They all thought that Zecora had cursed them, just because she’d said something to them that sounded vaguely like a threat? No wonder she only comes into town once a month.”
“Hey, don’t be too harsh on them. Twilight was the longest holdout on that, even if she eventually gave in to everypony else’s hysteria.” Quiver frowned, unhappy at painting his friends in a negative light. “As for the rest, they were less afraid of Zecora because she was a zebra and more afraid of her because she lives out in the Everfree. They’ve warmed up to her quite a bit since then.”
The pegasus made a rueful expression. “Still, stuff like that’s probably why you shouldn’t meet your heroes. Nopony’s perfect.”
“Yeah, but they admit to it, and

Folks, I've got a lot on my plate. Way more than I want on my plate, to be honest. And between work hammering me more than I'd like and an upcoming move that I'm still trying to get ready for, things are not looking good on the creative front.
I want to get the two requests done. I want to get the two commissions done. I planned on starting work on all four after I'd completed work on "Many Happy Reunions", but progress is slow on that, plus it's going to be even longer than I'd initially planned. Aside from that, I also hoped to finish work on "A Mad Pony in a Box" before the end of this year, with new chapters being released each month starting in July, but I fear that's going to get slowed down thanks to all of this too. And as much as I'd hoped to get the edited version of "Original Sins" released by the end of this year, I fear that's increasingly unlikely as well.
I'm not happy about all of that.
I'm still hopeful that I can get the next chapter out for "Many Happy Reunions" in April, but a part of me is tempted to change my plans regarding the requests and commissions. They're still gonna get done, just not the way that I'd hoped, and I ask that folks be patient with me regarding all of them.
In the meantime, I'm going to try my best to not feel miserable. And probably fail.
February was mixed. That's what it gets for being a short month, alas. Anyway, here's hoping March goes okay.
T:A-R Arc Four - "Dark Glass" - Working on this and other Transformers stuff!
T:A-R Re-Edits - "Original Sins" - Waiting to be Edited.
Editing on Novel - "Halcyon Days" - Done for now!

Update on March 2, 2019 - More is done on "Many Happy Reunions", and I'm very nearly done with Chapter Six.
Update on March 9, 2019 - Yet more is done on "Many Happy Reunions", but Chapter Six is still incomplete. Much closer to being done, though, and I doubt it'll disappoint.
Update on March 16, 2019 - Yet more is done on "Many Happy Reunions", though Chapter Six is still incomplete. Again, much closer to being done, but not quite there yet.
So yeah, over the last couple days, I've gotten a couple comments in regards to a story I wrote a couple years back, specifically in regards to elements that I added later on. Kinda got me down.
Let's dial back. A couple years ago, an author on FIMFiction announced that he was working on a story that would involve traveling in the MLP multiverse and interacting with other authors' stories. Naturally, me being something of an attention whore, I decided to throw my hat in and offer up the Quiververse as something to come up in the story. So far, no problems...but then I decided to do some edits to my story to better line up with the other author's story, and that's where things got troublesome. Discussion went back and forth, edits were made, and we both ended up with something we were happy with.
Flash forward to this week, and two readers have looked at it and said the same thing - the crossover did little to help the story, and in their opinion hurt it. And as happy as I am with the story, I can't help but think they have a point. Nothing I can do about it by now, but maybe I can smooth things over somehow.
Anyway, I'm sure some of my more astute readers might be able to figure out what story I'm talking about. What are your thoughts? Do you agree with the two unnamed readers, or do you think it was okay either way?
I set myself a goal a little bit ago. That goal was to complete twenty-one customizations of my Transformers toys before the end of 2019. I consider this achievable, assuming I don't get distracted by real life or by other projects. And I figured, why not put up a checklist?
- Nothing's done for this custom.

Folks, I've got a lot on my plate. Way more than I want on my plate, to be honest. And between work hammering me more than I'd like and an upcoming move that I'm still trying to get ready for, things are not looking good on the creative front.
I want to get the two requests done. I want to get the two commissions done. I planned on starting work on all four after I'd completed work on "Many Happy Reunions", but progress is slow on that, plus it's going to be even longer than I'd initially planned. Aside from that, I also hoped to finish work on "A Mad Pony in a Box" before the end of this year, with new chapters being released each month starting in July, but I fear that's going to get slowed down thanks to all of this too. And as much as I'd hoped to get the edited version of "Original Sins" released by the end of this year, I fear that's increasingly unlikely as well.
I'm not happy about all of that.
I'm still hopeful that I can get the next chapter out for "Many Happy Reunions" in April, but a part of me is tempted to change my plans regarding the requests and commissions. They're still gonna get done, just not the way that I'd hoped, and I ask that folks be patient with me regarding all of them.
In the meantime, I'm going to try my best to not feel miserable. And probably fail.
