Yeah, they've both been posted a lot. Nothing wrong with putting them up every now and then, either.


I think this one fits better.


Don't kill me.

Well, headcanon says RD = bi (and apparently so does the collective population of shipfic writers), so I won't be the one to do it.  :P

My opinion on the matter is a resounding "meh". I've no predilections (or whatever the word is) for or against this sort of thing, I just like RD's character as shown.

So yeah, I won't kill you either. Well, yet anyway...

Isn't TBP the one who is supposed to say that?

Meh, some things have been ingrained to just be... 'right' thanks to excessive and/or quality fanon.

Probably the only fanon shipping that I can get behind is the whole Lyra/Bon Bon thing...  Though, I have no problems with the mane 6 being either bi or les, but yea... the shipping stuff for them I really just ignore.

I will ship anyone and everyone if I think it would work. Even if it conflicts with my other ships. In my opinion, they all have their own merits. (For example, I'll quite happily ship Twilight/Whooves, Twilight/Trixie, Twilight/Big Mac or even Twilight/Library if I feel particularly silly.)

I have few to no predispositions so any character can be any combo of sexuality and I wouldn't bat an eye (though TBH rainbow strikes me as particularly straight). Some people get really offended though when RD is considered gay, heh.

It's all in good fun, anyway~

So what is the motivation for shipping anyway?

Same as the motivations for any other form of story. You may as well be asking what's the motivation for adventure, or horror, or whatever.

The answer is catharsis. Experience emotions by proxy, pretty much.


Potentially relevant: I wonder if this still counts as "by proxy." Seems like visual novels without the visuals.

Going through the thread is harder than I expected because I find links with huge/lots of stories behind them that weren't even posted, not even partially, in the thread, but are still stories/art by forumites on ponies. For example, Argembarger's  dA account and Dsarker's Warhammer 40k crossover.
So, if any of you regularly active in this thread have any MLP: FiM fanfics, could you please put them in one file each? I'd prefer .rtf because .doc is really... unwieldy. Trying to hunt all of these down on fimfiction or EqD is a real pain in the ass. I'll probably go through Argembarger's stuff myself, but Dsarker's right here, so no excuses! :P

Also, there's one question which most of you probably missed because of this thread being crazy active yesterday.

Also, I'm kind of contemplating what to add. I've found a rather large post by Zangi on Equestrian Warfare which isn't a fanfic at all and isn't even written from an in-universe standpoint.
There are also Akhier's first impressions on the episodes which are rather amusing to read.

I dunno, should I add these?

Edit: Oh yeah, I also found Dsarker's "basic script" of his My Little Warhammer 40k fanfic. I don't know if anything ever came from that script. If it did, I probably won't add the script, but as it stands, it's pretty interesting.
I now know of the My Little Warhammer fic, so ignore that edit. Unless you want the script to be added to the Bay12 Anthology of Pony regardless?

Go ahead.


Anyway, latest WIP for my continuation of the fic.



Rarity kept her vigil. The cyan pegasus slept under her watch. She doubted that the guardspony even knew she was there. Rarity watched her like a hawk. Ever since the incident, she ha-

She knew she was there. What had told her, she couldn't say, but she knew she was there. Rarity was already moving, already yelling for backup. But she knew it was futile. Before the Eversor would have gotten this close, the guards would be long dead. 

Dash woke at the sound, and tried to get up. But she was still groggy. 

The singsong voice came. 

"Heya fillies! Pinkie is here for you!"

Dash was clear thinking now, and the terror in her face was evident. The echoing of the hoofsteps ....

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
So, this is a continuation of this part?
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
I'm sorry, but I really have too many of your fanfics to go through to reliably guess where to put that part.

Edit: Also, I'd like at least a WIP name.
Edit2: Scratch that, just read it for the first time, I'm just gonna call it "Some fucked up Pinkie Pie shit".

This is totally gay, and I wrote it to be as shocking as possible

Seriously, it's very gay.

edit: Yeah, I'll post it elsewhere.
