Not So Li'l Cheese (MLP Spoilers)

spoilers for season 9 finale! Read at your own risk

k so i'm still waffling on whether or not to add this character to my cast or not

have some loose ideas

Mascarpone Pie (called 'Marcy' for short, or 'Lil Cheese' as a foal) is the eldest of Pinkie and Cheese's merry brood. Marcy is......a lot. As something like an extreme optimistic nihilist, Marcy believes that nothing truly matters, so why not have a good time? She's a bucket of thrills, but also wildly i...

Baaad to the Bone (WIP)

 "My reign was a glorious, fear-soaked epoch of darkness in Equestria. Beeeh."

today i realized that Grogar, father of monsters, isn't a goat, like i originally assumed. He's a ram (most likely a bighorn), which is a male sheep. I guess that makes more sense.....Goats in Equestria don't seem fully sapient and don't speak, but sheep do. (In one episode, Applejack is shown roughly shoving and corralling her flock of sheep into a pen, after which one sheep drily remarks "...

Lunar Lessons

Headaches Draft/Outline 1

 

*slaps first draft on the table*

Alright so this is gonna need some tweaking and fine-tuning, but it's general how I want the story to go. As always, feedback and critique is greatly appreciated!

This is the rough outline for Headaches, the next chapter in our story. It follows Detective Pandora and Snare.

Lunacorns

can't sleep, post ponies

someone asked if Nightmare Moon only turned pegasi into bat ponies. The answer is nope, Luna also bestowed bat wings to earth ponies, and as for her unicorn loyalists.....well, they were bestowed with powerful magic, and altered bodies, to better reflect their status as creatures of the endless night. They were the wingless bat ponies, the lunacorns. (also known as moonicorns, horned bats, or wingless chiropterasi). Unfortunately, when Nightmare Moon was banishe...

i'll do a doodle dump on earth ponies just for y'allllll

here's a wip comparing Cupcake to Pandora's dinky little unicorn form. Earth ponies are DENSE. They're the strongest ponies of all, and often the biggest. While Cheese Sandwich is a tall beanpole, and Pinkie is a diminutive chunk muffin, Cupcake is 100% rock pony brawn.

Great Googley Moogley

someday primrose will ask nocturnus what her mother was like

noct will smile fondly and recall that mamabat was kind, brutally intelligent, breathtakingly beautiful, and also kind of a dumbass

(Willow had the worst sense of humor. Silly pranks, shitty puns, knock-knock jokes, you name it. Most of em were groaners but Noct always enjoyed hearing her cackle)

Nightmare Moon's Army

more bat pony stuff, we learnin so much today

Bat ponies are really something of a mystery. A reclusive race, they're especially secretive about their written histories and seem curiously loyal to Queen Luna, with some colonies even worshipping her as a deity. They have only recently begun integrating back into regular Equestrian society with Luna's return from her millennia of imprisonment. But still, little is known about the species.

Legend tells that one thousand years ago, Ni...

Eclipse comes from a colony of frugovores (fruit eaters), his teeth are big and scary but blunt, his colony eats roots and juicy vegetables but go collectively apeshit for raw fruit. The suck up the juice and eat the pulp and scatter the seeds, helping new trees grow.

Notes on Horns

watch me try to cram way too many wurdz on some horse doodles

Magic is alive in every creature, but it cannot be utilized properly without a solid conduit. Earth ponies can conduct magic through their hooves (super strength, encouraging the harvest), Pegasi can conduct magic through their wings (weather manipulation, control over elements like lightning, wind, ice, and fire), but a unicorn's horn offers an unrivaled means of precision spell-casting. Horns allow unicorns to draw on the w...

Butting Horns

de-stressing with some horses, why not

recall the study i did on pegasus wings, well one is coming on unicorn horns

Unicorn horns are made of a bone core encased in keratin. The surface is covered in fine velvet, and the horn itself is very sensitive to touch. It's considered extremely rude to touch a unicorn's horn without permission. 

Unicorns tap their horns together as a show of trust and affection, this gesture is not inherently romantic and is often done ...

Spider Cupcakes

what the SHIT sugar belle, all me and my daughter came in your shop for was to buy a cupcake to celebrate morning glory making perfect honor roll again (as expected, my daughter is flawless), BUT YOU had to be TOO FRIENDLY and accidentally blab all about my FORMER CULT days and IMPLY it might've had some negative psychological effects on you that couldn't be brushed aside with three seconds of singing and a "teehee my bad" apology.

Those who follow me on tumblr may know I decided to retcon Flurry Heart's romance with Dragon Lord Ember (because although both parties are consenting adults, they have a pretty big age difference between them, and I'm finding that large age differences bother me more the older I get). So I got rid of it, but that left the question of how to stick Flurry Fart with. She's a big doofy romantic, t'ain't no way she was gonna run away from home and no...

Hello all! Sorry for the inactivity, and doubly sorry if I’ve worried any of you! I’m on vacation for the week. My intention was to take it easy and get some drawing done, but ahhh.....it’s been hectic, y’all. There’s been a few crises, including a trip to the ER. Hoping to return home and get back to uploads within a few days! I have lots of new ideas for doodles and stories! In the meantime, thank you for your patience!
