Kaleidoscope Tekulo

Yeah, but my text is green! Any lighter and it gets painful to read. =/ I figure I'd use orange for applejack and manilla-ish yellow for Fluttershy (as Pinkie has pink and Applejack is orange).

Exactly my conundrum. XD But, I've always found Indigo looks so much like purple that distinguishing between the two can be confusing.And yes, that situation should be avoided at all costs. XD

Haha, I remember getting Pepper in a set a while back. The dude with the food didn't disappoint, either. He's awesome. ^^ But, I gotta say, the second game didn't really hold up as well as I would have liked. I still need to replay the first one though. ^^; It's been awhile.Even so, I still listen to Brick by Brick. I think it's my favorite song from my childhood (or one of my favorites anyway).

This topic is here to discuss the convention touring around the country! Kidsfest is making its next appearance in Cleveland, OH at the IX center during the weekend of November 4-6. I already went to the one in Pittsburgh, myself, but it looks like I'll be in town for the one in Cleveland too. ^^' Anyone else get to go or is planning on going? ^^

Really? That's awesome! =DGotta love the Fairly Odds. ^^ "What if she exploded... and then exploded again?!""Can you do that? Can you explode twice?""Of course not..." Hehe, just watched Feeling Pinkie Keen again. It's a good one. ^^ ... You know, color-quoting these ponies got a whole lot more complicated when three of the characters have purple... =/

Wahoo! Great to see you're still doing these. ^^ Love the mask, and good luck with your studies. Any plans on painting any more of these?

That... isTheBestPossibleThing! XDD, I love the Twilight one. ^^ And great job on Pinkie Pie too! Makes me want to carve a pumpkin...

Hmm, I'll have to check this out sometime.Ttotp on Runescape if anyone's interested. XP I mainly go on during holiday events nowadays. XD I did the Halloween event, and it was fun. ^^ Not too impressed with the prizes, but the games were worth it. =D

Flight. I would choose flight. Why?Because flying is awesome and scary at the same time. ;D That way I wouldn't need a car and I could look at the world from different points of view. Yeah, it's my cup of tea. ^^

Thoughts on the CMC: Aww, Sweetiebelle can sing! =3Aww, Applebloom is a fasion person, only she's not as diva as Rarity... Cool! ^^Oh, great, another Rainbow Dash... -.- ... But, wait... She actually has skill on a scooter! Plus we see her doing something other than rainbows and fast flying! Woohoo! ^^ So, yeah... CMC is best CMC XD "Congratulations, Spike. You're the new Rainbow Dash." Hehe... I love that line. ^^

...Wait, are you saying you've been agreeing or disagreeing with me? O.o Not that I really care too much, it's just I wasn't sure how to decode that part of the sentence. XD And yeah, I tend to disagree a lot... But, hey, what's a discussion if everyone just plain agrees? It's boring is what it is. ;D And real-time, huh? That sounds cool, actually! I don't do it real-time. I visit back to the plot here and there and try to make up my mind on my ideas. I continue from the chapter where I leave off, but I still have a general idea of what I want to do with the plot. I just hope I can get there with my characters and setting. It's like my characters have a life of their own, their own persona and their own thoughts and soul. I'm just there trying to record what's important and trying to figure out how they would act. And so far, all that's done is progress the plot to my liking (even when I didn't realize it at the time). It's kinda strange to think about... But my characters come from my own persona, so I can relate to each of them to a degree. But then the character turns from a base into its own person, and then I find I can relate a little less as I probably wouldn't react the same way to things as they would (if that makes any sense).

Dude, if I had a shirt of Fluttershy as she massaged a bear, I'd wear it in any social situation. XDCaption: It's always the quiet ones.

I think I'd prefer a Fluttershy blanket. XD And the size wouldn't matter. I'd wear it as a cape when it's chilly out and creep out the neighborhood. Hide yo mares, hide yo foals. ^^

Is Past Sins a horror fanfic? If it is, I'm staying away from it. XD

Hehe... Win... Anyway, I'm kinda curious... If you have a bunch of ideas for a story, how do you normally plan them out? As in, do you organize your thoughts in the story (if so, how do you do it? Charts, a rough draft, etc?) or do you just let your story flow after it's started and go from there? A mix of both?

Edit: Whoops, looked back a page and found out we weren't supposed to mention those stories. Anyway, what fanfics aren't horror related? I'd kinda like to read something heartwarming after all of that reading...

Oh, hey, I'm on the brony list. XD Anyway, it might be interesting if Spike had a little more development. I mean, he's a baby and that side does show when he can be thoughtless (like eating gems, or sorting through apples and eating the best one himself even though he didn't help out), but he can also be responsible (like alerting Princess Celestia when Twilight went momentarily insane XD). He's an interesting one, though I'm really not too sure what to think of him.

Hehe, it made me giggle gleefully with gorgeous goron gusto! (And any other g-words you wanna throw in there. XD) The design is simple, but it's still a fun piece. ^^

Hmm... My favorite villain would probably be Dark Link. There's just something about the shadow of a hero that seems epic, even if he's not the main villain and even if he doesn't have any dialogue. His cheeky laugh and giant bombs (as well as his concept) are enough to make me smile. ^^

I loved the new episode. Lots of action and finally we find out a little more of what's going on.It makes me wonder what's inside of the sarcophagus?

Where I've gotten inspiration from: Legend of Zelda, Bionicle, Brothers Grimm, Hans Christian Anderson, Spiders (the arachnid animals, not a work of literature), music, clouds (in the sky, again, not literature), the sea, sunsets, the full moon, classic tales everyone knows... in other words; anything and everything that catches my eye. You don't have to be inspired by only authors or works of literature (renowned or unknown) in order to write a story, a poem, a sentence, etc. Inspiration can come from anywhere, and for me, it does. Not to say being inspired by other works is a bad thing, but I guess what I'm trying to say is that there isn't just one way to be inspired. Sorry guys, I just wasn't seeing anyone saying this, so I decided to say it. See what I'm saying? XP

I love doing that! I'll listen to an instrumental piece that's soft and then a bit harsh and picture a harpie that's protecting her child from a dark and powerful tempest. By the end of the song, three harpie sisters manage to fight off the elements and keep their child safe from harm, and although they are battered, they still value their unity as a family. Yeah, that was a fun field trip in Music class. XDBut yeah, music can play a large part in where I get my ideas. They allow my mood to just flow and wander, and then I play around with different ideas in my head. I picture what it is I'm feeling and express that with a few characters or maybe a small plot. I seldom write these down, but it's just a fun way to brainstorm when you have nothing better to do. ^^

Hmm... 4.5/5

Favorite quote:Rarity: "Exile... Well, I suppose technically I'd have to move away in order for it to be considered exile. Where would I go? And what would I pack? Ugh, it's going to take forever to do all of that packing. What are you supposed to pack when you go into exile? Are you supposed to pack... warm?" Oh, Rarity... I swear, you're one of my favorites. XD On matters of best pony... I think a lot of them are the best. Fluttershy, Rarity, Twilight, Derpy, Luna, etc, etc. I just love them all too much to play absolute favorites. XD

Dare to Dream XI - Stutter Tetak just stared, dubious, at Laza. "L-Leaving the… U-Uh…" "That's right!" Laza didn't pay Tetak much mind; she had already taken a swing at a nearby tree. "B-But that's- err, I mean…" Tetak was afraid of disagreeing with someone so confident. He winced as Laza struck the tree a second time, this one louder and more forceful than the first. "Come on…" Laza grunted as she pulled her axe from the tree, "Break!" she demanded of its strong structure as she gave her final swing. In turn, the tree fell. Tetak winced again as the tree fell, its splinters seeming to scream out as they snapped one by one ending in a tremendous thump! It seemed to Tetak that the tree came down far too easily, but he didn't pay it much mind. He was too busy trying to voice his opinion. He should speak up, shouldn't he? After all, he did have something to say… didn't he? "Uh… E-Excuse… me?" His voice was meek. "What is it?" Laza's voice seemed calm, but at the same time a little irritated. She didn't look at Tetak, but instead moved on to the next tree, swinging away as if Tetak were a pest. "I-I don't r-really think th-that a r-raft would… err-uh, th-that is to-to say it sounds like the i-dea is uh… i-it sounds-" Laza had reached her limit. Listening to this matoran babble on and on was turning into torture. She hated nonsense; she always preferred to get to the point and stop wasting time. "Spit it out!" she cried as she shot an annoyed glare at Tetak. "It sounds dumb!" Tetak shouted unfortunately as he was startled. He immediately covered his mouth with both of his trembling hands and gave Laza a very sheepish look. "It what?!" Laza was fuming. Tetak shyly pulled the dark, dark hood of his cloak over his eyes. He wished he could have worded himself differently. Why was it he couldn't think of the right words to say? His heartlight was running nervously and Tetak only wished he could just disappear in his cloak. "I'm sure he didn't mean that." Came a voice that was music to Tetak's ears. "He only meant that this idea… it doesn't seem like it would work in the long-run." Nia tried her best to explain. "And why wouldn't it work?" Laza's eyes were filled with gloom and disgust. She rested the head of her axe on the ground and leaned against it, preparing to listen to more nonsense. "Well, if you think about it, to leave the island you'd have to go back to the beach at the edge of the island, correct? Well, wouldn't you just run into those voices again?" Nia's voice was calm and thoughtful. She had her hand on the side of her face and looked up, not directly at Laza, and seemed to be running through some ideas in her head. "Oh come on, I'm sure this island has more than one beach. And besides, the voices can't be everywhere on the edge of the island." "That's another thing; we don't know much about what's lurking out on this island." "But don't you live on this island?" Laza snapped, amazed she could have to point out the obvious. "… I'm afraid I seldom leave my village. I was just out here getting water," Nia pointed to her floating jug. "I always travel this route." Tetak could have sworn Nia had been carrying around the pod he'd arrived in up until now… Perhaps he was imagining things. He still dared not to speak. Tension was high in the air and he had not yet calmed down completely. Perhaps he was just going insane? Perhaps he had always been insane… "Besides," Nia continued, "I've never heard of any other continents or islands outside of Yume Island. The sea could be vast. How do you know you would survive the journey?" Laza seemed to be mulling something over in her head. After a few moments, she huffed, picked up her axe and barked, "Take us to your village." Her arms would be crossed for the remainder of their journey to Nia's home.Review
