Everything Will Be Okay

"Oh my darling little Starlight.....you have yourself a good long cry. Mummy will be here as long as you need......Always."

I already talked about Glory, Starlight Glimmer's deceased mom, back in this post: https://www.patreon.com/posts/42166446 , but have some bullet points to recap

-Glory was a kind, loving, utterly brilliant unicorn, with the extraordinarily rare ability to grant wishes

What is a God to a King (Saucy Art Warning)

this is a smidge racier than my typical stuff so i'm tucking it under a cut

exploring more of twi and discord's relationship dynamic. Their personalities are intensely opposed in many areas, but in their private lives they are shockingly compatible

Discord likes: domination, being put in his place, exhibitionism, handsome evil unicorn kings

Twilight likes: control, putting would-be ...

Why Do Fools Fall In Love

ur rubbing off on him twily~

Okay so. Y'all might've noticed that my content lately has been focusing on entirely new characters and storylines and whatnot. This is because much of the older Pandoraverse characters and content (most of which was first made seven years ago) has long grown stale and flat to me. Even Twicord. My oldest, dumbest OTP. Which is a problem, cuz the Pverse was kinda built on the Twicord ship.

Sooo. Just out of boredom, I rewatched the episode that...

Montezuma may be a master thief, but sometimes he does get in over his head, especially as he has enemies other than Smokescreen. And in these instances, what can ya do but crawl into your nemesis-sort of-bf's apartment window and bleed all over his bedsheets cuz lord knows u can't go to a legitimate hospital 

Smoky is 1.) grumpy at being woken up and 2.) most definitely gonna smack Monty upside the head for being so reckless/watch over Monte while he sleeps in a creepy unblinking ...

Fire and Smoke


all these doodles and i'm only just now drawing these 2 together in non-human form

i know i (predictably, lol) jumped right into shipping these two, but their relationship is pretty ruthless in the beginning. They are enemies, each standing for what they believe is right, and neither willing to back down. In the beginning, when all Smokescreen knows is that Montezuma is a cunning and dangerous threat to Equestria- welp, they fight a lot. All teeth and claws- Smokescreen may b...

It's a Miserable Life

sorry for all the monty spam y'all, just trying to ride out this sudden inspo wave. will get back to comic making soon

So originally I had Daring Do and Dr. Cabelleron straight up kidnap ("rescue") baby Montezuma from Ahuizotl, but I'm wondering now if that was just a little too evil. Daring and Cabelleron do renounce stealing in their final episode, after all.

I'm thinking now that Ahuizotl let them take Monty. Daring and Cabelleron, his good, good friends, did ...

Montezuma's old design wasn't working for me, decided to streamline his shape and give him a big dumb head so he can match his papa

Join Me, Lizard Boy

Montezuma enjoys their game as much as Smokescreen does, but he does sometimes get frustrated by the fact that Smoke is opposing him at all. Smoky is clever and competent and deserves so much more than being Equestria's errand boy. He's unique, just like Montezuma, misunderstood, mysterious, and alone. Montezuma gets it. Monty can think of so many better uses for his arch-rival.....why does Smoke insist on this silly battle of minds, when they could be so much better together? View Post

I Am Your Nemesis

time to talk about Montezuma, Smokescreen's greatest adversary/possible boyfriend

soooo some of my older patrons may remember my concept art for Montezuma, son of Ahuizotl and The Sphinx:

To put his story quickly, infant Montezuma was "rescued" (read: kidnapped) by Daring Do and Dr. Cabelleron, i...

messy af with wonky perspective that i gotta fix but i'm pretty happy with layout! Gonna need a lot of spit and polish to get to being a finished full color comic

also, hi Smoky. Smokescreen works as a intelligence agent for the Equestrian government, but he's also on Jam's payroll more often than not. Ever since Jam figured out Smoky's unsavory secret day job, she's brought him on as a spy/bit of muscle/bodyguard. Jam is super thrilled abou...

Business Tactics (Preview WIP)

sooooo "It's A Date" is still being scripted but I REALLY wanted to make a comic so I wrote this one page comic to play around with dialogue, panels, etc. This is the first eight panels, the finished comic will have twelve panels total. Featuring a friendly chat between Jam Sandwich and the eternal thorn in her side, the very rich, very distinguished, and very powerful Mister Filthy Rich, of Ponyville fame. There's an ongoing turf war between them, and it's one that Jam is very determined to ...

IAD! Test Panel

still a little bit too detailed, but I think I'm already learning a lot. Pretty happy with the end result! Kinda time-consuming but still fun! I can already tell word bubbles are gonna be a pain. Gotta get my grubby mitts on a free art program better suited to making panels and word bubbles cuz FireAlpaca is serviceable but not especially efficient

Still trying not to hype y'all up too much, but I'm making good progress! The story of It's A Date! has been (roughly) out...

It's A Date!

Y'know, I've been sitting on the last chapter of the Peachy/Skyla story for a long, long time. I wrote it, rewrote it, squinted at it, recruited beta readers to give feedback....but I couldn't pin down exactly what was wrong with the story. It was functional? Not a bad story, I guess. Got good feedback on it. So why did I feel so unmotivated to post it?

I finally figured it out! It's cuz it's boring. Not quite the story itself (again, it was functional), but t...

Teenage Shining Armor and his best friend Cadence~

fun fact: lil Twilight Sparkle coined the phrase "Big Brother Best Friend Forever" at her brother's 16th birthday party, when he officially, nervously came out as trans to his family.

Improving My Patreon

Howdy all! Looking at my patreon reward tiers, it’s clear things are outdated, and that my patreon has become a pledge-whatever-you-want situation where all patrons get access to all content, no matter their pledge. I’m realizing now that this is sloppy and unstructured, and doesn’t properly reward the folks that pledge higher amounts. I abandoned the monthly rewards with no explanation and I sincerely apologize for that. I suppose I became overwhelmed, but that’s no excuse. So! Movin...

Sweet Tooth

Drawing hasn't been fun for me lately.... so my new year's resolution is to upload more frequently and stop listening to that voice in my head that shoots down all my ideas. From now on I stop overthinking pieces/trying to attach a weighty narrative to everything/caring so much about canon and just draw whatever inane bs pops into my head. It's time to have fun drawing again! >:O

anyway, Moondancer is on the whole pretty disinterested in food, often forgetting meals and draining cups...

got some requests for more Stormy/Bruce family stuff so here u go

Sometime after their kids Wave Rider and Finn have grown up into young adults, Bruce and Stormy start feeling empty nest syndrome hard. Or at least, Stormy does. He misses his babies! Comparatively, Bruce doesn't not miss their children, but they do still come around often enough, and it's pretty peaceful not having to worry about styling pigtails or potty training or prom and boys or any of that nonsense.

Long Boi

yeah that's cuz he looked awkward af

Teenage Odd was a recluse, much like his grandmother Twilight in her youth. He preferred the company of books to other living creatures, to the point where he could go days and days without speaking to another soul, or even seeing the sun. He was quite comfortable alone in his study working tirelessly into the night, often forgetting to sleep, bathe, and eat. This made him a smelly boi, and also a rail-thin perpetually tired boi, which began to worry...
