#TVnight is going to start. First off, a #numberphile #video about #pancake #numbers followed by a couple videos of people who run cat rescues interacting with their cats (#LionWhisperer with his lions and #BCD's wife with a tiger cub that's the size of a medium-large dog).

Next will probably be the #MLP finale.

They used the storybook illustration for the first time in a very long while. I like that alternate art style.

(Following toots shall go unlisted so I don’t clog the TL more)

Hello, @Celestia! You seem to be having court with your sister and #Twilight made the time to visit you.

Twilight is **way** too excited, as always!

I think they may be referencing episodes I missed here. Might need to catch up somehow (they’re not in my sync folder)

I really like the Foley of the hooves walking
Starlight has illegible writing, as does Starswirl the Bearded
Was that transition a time-travel spell back in time or a cut forward in time?

#AJ still grabs #RD by the #tail.

O shit ghost ponies!

Holy fuck a #hexagon

#MLP #TVnight

Male ponies: a #mane6 of #stallions

#TwilightSparkle has fully adapted to being a winged pony: she flies around when she’s very excited, just like a #pegasus
This Pony of Shadows story so far sounds a lot like the #NightmareMoon story but with #stallions (or maybe a few #geldings as well)

HOLD THE PHONE: I’m bumping this one to public!!!

The plot of this episode just took a turn extremely close to a happier version the #fanfic I’ve had in my head for the past five years and never seen to have the #NaNoWriMo time to make a fixed work to get it out of my system. Namely: #Twilight going on a #journey to discover exactly where #Starswirl went.

Since it’s an actual #MLP episode, it’ll have a much happier ending than my fic.

Two sentences later, and this is confirmed as the happy-ending Hasbro-approved version of the fic I want to write. I’ve already had large enough sections of it contradicted by episodes that came out after I made the basic plot, so I’d still keep the same disclaimer: the major arc was made in June 2012, so canonical events after MLP season 2 and Doctor Who series 6 are only suggestions for this story.
The biggest thing I want to re-work in my story is to incorporate characters that were introduced after I established the original plot. I stopped giving a shit about Doctor Who after Series 7 (there was some contract dispute that kicked BBC shows off Amazon Prime for a year and I never got back on that train), so maybe I can use Starlight to excise the remaining Doctor Who crossover parts.
MLP having attempts at continuity in its seasons after I made my initial outline have made me question all kinds of stuff about characterization and plot. I want to take later-season recurring characters and then have them act in my alternate timeline (imagine a darker version of this episode but it takes place after MLP season 2/Dr. Who series 6)
Even the Pony of Shadows is a better-planned version of the OC I needed to make to serve as the mystery antagonist for the first half. This is a tad bit surreal.
