When bad times start in.   I remember going to the artist's panel at Trotcon back in July. Some of the artists were more talented or popular than others, but none of them were too shabby at all. "What do you want to improve in your work?" one of the questions went. "Time," answered most of them; they wanted to draw faster, or to draw more in one style or another. There was one artist who didn't say either of those.   "I'm actually pretty content with where I'm at right now," he said.

I was afraid that this wasn't going to translate well into a story, since the concept was originally meant for a management / raising sim. Each day, the player would manage the activities for the ponies to help them integrate themselves with human society. Events would be available to influence their outlook, both good and bad. And this of course includes how much trust and affection they have for the player, and whether they would stay on Earth or return to Equestria at the end of the game.   >>4352938 This idea sounds fun.

If it's an alternate earth then you can easily write off similarities between worlds. If you want to be serious and mess around with language then you'll have to work in the possibility that Equestria and Earth had been connected somehow because if you want scifi realism then you need to acknowledge that an alien world would not have creatures that looked anything like us, the closest you could hope is 'also carbon based and exist in the only 3 dimensions."   So unless you're writing a simple thing where the language deal will be handled like all other mainstream scifi (by ignoring it) then you don't need to pretend at realism. Otherwise the options are 1. alternate universe/timeline, or 2. The world had been in contact before, resulting in myhtology concerning Unicorns, pegasi, Griffins, dragons etc.   I have ideas for a scifi version of Equestria where certain portals connected the two worlds and maybe others at various times. I have the griffins being less lionlike and more reptilian, hailing from the same world as the dragons. Things like that. all ideas for stories I'll never even think up.         >>   AnonymousSat Sep 15 03:56:44 2012No.4479750      /r/questing list of all stories in a pastebin or something like that.

It takes place pre-WWI though and it's more about the ponies adapting their political structure and way of life to fit with the new world. It has Teddy Roosevelt in it.   Look up Interesting Times on Fimfiction if you're interested.   Anyway, concept sounds interesting, but might I suggest a something to make it more interesting? What if the humans didn't develop magic but rather the means to use it, like all human invention, being able to unlock it through tools of a kind. Maybe it didn't exist in their world before merging with another so not that it does a few are able to learn it through the use of a sort of compound made from the same material as a unicorn's horn. This will allow some fun things to pop up, like maybe this substance from their horns is just more concentrated there. Maybe all ponies have some amount of it in their bones, the pegasi using it to 'levitate' themselves enough for their tiny wings to carry them, and earth ponies maybe becoming more durable and stronger for it.   So then you can have the humans use it in similar ways. A concentrated amount used to made a staff or rod with which, after very much practice and much skill, one holding it could have the same magical potential of the average unicorn but unlike unicorns not taking naturally to it. It would also allow the other races to use magic too.   the ponies with hands thing takes the fun away from a lot of the thing though. It's more interesting when there are more physical differences between the various races involved in this sort of meeting of worlds. It's like how there's no good humanized mlp fanfiction because once they're more human the fun is gone, unless it's some kind of tf thing and you focus on that.   I could go on and on, I always have too many ideas.         >>   Mr. BlueSun Sep 16 10:30:57 2012No.4502130      >>4502123 Forgot my name.         >>   Mr. BlueSun Sep 16 10:32:56 2012No.4502155   Quoted by: >>4502466      >>4502123 Oh, and one more interesting thing to note.
