Description

"And forgive me for being so blind"
=========================
It's more than self defense.

Today I had some stresses, I'm not sure if I'm upset like sunbutt or angry like moonbutt here. It irritates me to get so distracted by the little things for me to take so long on this piece. Frankly, I took longer than I'd like and yet I made far better drawings last year compared to this. I'm not at all satisfied with this, and the only thing good about it is that this would be nice to be a finished drawing. Gosh I hate myself, I guess I'm sunny butt then.

Anyways, another Celestia drawing, and I draw more from that Lullaby for a Princess animation. It's still pretty good.

My Good Heart Chapter 11

Chapter 11 ~ Restless Spirits Kopa didn't know if it was impressive or troubling how well Kion could finesse his way through a conversation. Especially while still being so young. He actually convinced their mother to let him go out after dark to "look at the stars and bond with my big bro and sis" with the caveat that Kopa and Kiara agreed to not let him out of their sights. Their father was still away trying to figure out why some of the watering holes were strangely starting to dry up. In the middle of wet season, no less. Although Asherah and Ayodele took a bit more convincing, they eventually agreed for Thalassa and Tallulah to tag along as well at their daughters' eager behest. But before they trekked off anywhere, Kopa insisted Kion take them to the tombstone of the ancestor that made the request for the black dik-dik skull in the first place. The crown prince was able to breathe a little easier when his bouncy baby brother didn't make a turn towards the Den of the Damned.

Time

There once was a wizard who mastered time. This wizard was in Love. They loved their partner so much that Everytime they made a single mistake, they would rewind the clock. And correct their mistake. One could argue that because those futures were erased; perhaps much larger mistakes were made. But in this one; their partner had a perfect life, with a perfect Wizarding Spouse that anyone would envy. One could argue that; because those reactions were erased; the larger mistakes was trying to mold somebody into a toy for yourself. That wizard died for their Love; and the partner, with a perfect life, and a perfect spouse, kept in eternal captivity. A person can tell when their decisions, and their choices, and their time has been stolen from them. The partner said; "I had to control my own thoughts; because as soon as I thought one thing; the future changed. The Wizard changed. And now; I am free to exist as nature intended." - Anon

The Heir of the Tuning Fork Part 2

Chapter 1: The Newcomer The air above the Sea of Glass was different than the air in the deep desert. Here, near the edges of the Fort, it smelled of sulfur, sun-baked stone, and the distant, metallic tang of the great airship docks. Sunniva banked hard to the left, her wings catching a thermal rising from the obsidian outcrops. Below her, the Fort looked less like a castle and more like a jagged crown of stone hammered into the earth. There were no banners of kings or queens here; only the utilitarian grey of Captain Halloway’s outpost. To the humans, it was a frontier defense. To Sunniva and the surviving desert Kobolds, it was the first place that had ever truly felt like sanctuary. As a member of the Captain’s Guard, Sunniva’s mornings were spent as the eyes in the sky. She scanned the horizon for the shimmering heat-wraiths of the Drow or the shifting sands that signaled a desert predator. Today, however, her eyes were fixed on the silver speck emerging from the clouds:

Adventures in Equestria Ep. 1

*In the land of Equestria, far away from the city of Canterlot, past the boundaries of the Everfree Forest and over the Lipizzaner mountain range, lay the shining kingdom of Mareheim. Looming over the village, sparkling from the sun over the horizon, stood the royal castle. Numerous towers stuck out along the kingdom, decked with green tiles on the rooftops, matching the white bricks layering the castle walls. The castle itself contained numerous rooms and the Royal Flag itself planted on the tallest tower, swaying over the gentle morning breeze. Upon the flag itself, lay the symbol of Mareheim: a golden mare rearing up on it's hind hooves...

*Morning, the sun rose over the horizon brighter than the average morning in Equestria. The sun glistens along the landscape, bringing the land to life arousing it's beauty beneath it's radiance. The flowers bloom as if awoken from their slumber, the animals emerged from their homes to frolic about in the valley, and the light reflected along the crystal rivers scattered about along the land. A voice spoke as Equestria greeted the new day, the land faded upon words being written along a strip of paper by hand.

Exhausted, the pair slowed to a halt in a cluster of trees and regained their bearings. “You…think…it…followed…us?”“I…hope not…” Diamond finally regained her breath. “You okay?”Silver nodded as she finished gasping for air. Like her friend, she wasn’t used to strenuous activity, at least of this sort. “So, what now?”“Now…” Diamond looked about, her face a mask of confidence, and pointed towards a tree. “Here.

Later in her life, after Sunrunner had gained a measure of experience and a chance to expand her vocabulary, she’d learn quite a few of them.  “Oh my my my, aren’t we the little troublemaker?”  None of them would be particularly pleasant. The stallion seated before them behind a large, imposing desk was portly and rotund, with a thinning mane and a muzzle more suggestive of a pig’s snout than anything else. The tiny round glasses he wore did little to discourage this image, nor did the cheery-looking expression upon his face as he regarded the f...

A Shimmering New Year - Part Four

Chapter Four: Rainbooms on the CouchLike many schools of its size, Canterlot High had one or two conference rooms, meant either for formal meetings between teachers or for the odd special occasion like a government-mandated hearing and vision check. They allowed for greater space than an office, and helped to create a sense of neutrality whenever a student and/or their family entered. They were also not as formal as the offices of the principal and vice principal, and thus without the looming peril of disciplinary action.  Some students, however, joked that when called to the conference room, a student stood a chance of getting it from the...

Codex Quest(s): A Codex Equus Story (Part 101)

The Gaming panel was taking place in a larger room than the one in the Animation panel. In fact, upon closer examination from the inside it looked much bigger than it should be on the outside. This distortion of space was quickly confirmed by those accompanying them. “This room is built specifically to accommodate Giant creatures.” Victress Vale explained, going by the information she was privy to while co-organising this year’s media convention. “Most rooms and buildings are already designed with that in mind, given the truly great sizes dragons could grow, but sometimes extra space is needed to accommodate big guests, especially in large numbers.” There is indeed a great crowd present. Thanks to Splash Page calling ahead, they were able to secure some of the best seats as VIP guests, a table close to the main screen and the front stage where the panelists would be set up to show their stuff and answer questions.

The Ballad of Velvet Rose

Verse 1 Oh, Velvet Rose, with wings of red, From Canterlot's high skies, she fled. A sister lost, a vow she made, To find her 'cross the ocean's blade. Chorus Yo-ho, fly high, brave Velvet Rose, Through stormy seas and winter's snows. A heart of fire, a clever mind, To the farthest lands, her fate's entwined. Verse 2 She met a stallion, bold and true, In Everfree's dark, misty hue. A hidden love, they whispered low, But off to the waves she had to go. Chorus Yo-ho, fly high, brave Velvet Rose, Through stormy seas and winter's snows. A heart of fire, a clever mind, To the farthest lands, her fate's entwined. Verse 3 With pirate sails and a daring crew, She searched the world for a sister's clue. Through caves and storms, o'er oceans wide, The courage of Rose would never hide. Chorus Yo-ho, fly high, brave Velvet Rose, Through stormy seas and winter's snows. A heart of fire, a clever mind, To the farthest lands, her fate's entwined. Bridge With sword in hoof and wings so

Tears of the Ancient One

Verse 1: Through the veil of time and frost, she came, From the age of ice, where no fire could tame. Eyes of sorrow, like the frozen skies, Healing flows in the tears she cries. Chorus: Oh, Mist of ages, bound by fate, A healer's heart in a world of hate. She walks through shadows, burdened by pain, Her tears bring life, yet she bears the stain. Verse 2: In her hooves, the weight of lives long gone, Echoes of creatures in a time forlorn. Each step she takes, the ground feels her ache, For every wound she heals, a piece of her breaks. Chorus: Oh, Mist of ages, bound by fate, A healer's heart in a world of hate. She walks through shadows, burdened by pain, Her tears bring life, yet she bears the stain. Bridge: She blames herself for the frost that bites, For battles fought on cold, endless nights. But her gentle soul, a beacon of light, Turns even the darkest winter to white. Final Chorus: Oh, Mist of ages, hear her cry, A healing gift from an ancient sky. Through time she wanders,

My Little Pony: Horses of P.E.R.K.S.: Full story

Long ago, a human girl named Megan Williams was taken to a place called Ponyland by a pony named Firefly to help her save her friends from an evil monster named Tirac, who planned to bring eternal night. With the help of the Moochick's Rainbow of Light, Megan defeated Tirac and restored peace to Ponyland. Megan has had more adventures with ponies ever since. But when a great evil threatens both of our worlds, she comes to Equestria to recruit powerful warriors of friendship... MY LITTLE PONY HORSES OF P.E.R.K.S. The hum of the jet engines filled the cabin, a stark contrast to the nervous silence that had settled over Twilight Sparkle and her friends. That was when Megan Williams walked into the cabin. She was wearing a pink tuxedo, a blue tie, white gloves, and a silver badge on the left side of her tux. The badge had a pony's face and the initials "P.E.R.K.S." on it. She also had the Rainbow of Light around her neck. "Thank you all for coming." Megan said. "What I'm about to tell you
