Re: [GRIMDARK] Fallout Equestria: Project Horizons Discussion

[OneMoreDaySK]

Dang you guys are fast. Kinda have to wait and see if I can afford all my books for classes.

:-/

Is there anything else y'think he'd like, like a plushie?

[CannonFodder]

We now have 120 USD, which is almost certainly more than enough! Further donations ought to be sent directly to Somber.
Now, how do I pay for the books?

Sorry guys. I wish I could have donated, but as I said before my money isn't coming in till next friday



Somber, I have a question. I'm thinking of doing some fanart for project horizons for class and potentially putting it in my portfolio. My questions are what is your favorite high action scene from after blackjack becomes a cyberpony, and if I like the drawing may I put it in my portfolio since I am still in college and my degree is towards graphics. I won't get any money off it or anything, just a "hey here's some of my past works and this is what I've drawn" to potentially get a job. The only other thing is I went afk from drawing for half a year cause I was trying to learn how to draw ponies properly. I suck at drawing ponies, so if I get a message from you saying "okey dokey" it would have to be humanized though cause I still can't draw ponies properly. I threw out almost all my past pony drawings cause I am so ashamed of how they turned out.

I'm asking even though people have done fanart in the past, I want to know if it's okay to potentially put it in my portfolio.

1. Fill out this form if you haven't done so already, probably with your contact info and Somber's shipping address. (You will probably get a confirmation email from the organizers.)
2. Hurry up and wait until the final price has been determined sometime after 17 February.
3. Send the money via Paypal based on instructions from the organizers.

Actually I already reserved a set, but that was primarily because at the time it looked as if all the available sets would have been claimed soon. I'll probably cancel that if you order one.


I've known those guys for around half a year now, so I could talk to them if you want me to.

...So what exactly ought I to do?
I'll go ahead and email Somber to ask for his shipping address, though.

[Scootayay]

I dunno. Should we take the one I ordered or sign up for a new one?

[Ketchup]

That was fast. Kudos to those who sent cash.

My mother probably wouldn't approve of me sending money to some random guy on the internet anyway...

[O. Hinds]

I dunno. Should we take the one I ordered or sign up for a new one?

Well, PayPal probably won't hit me for money laundering or anything, so just let me know when you have an address for me to pay.

Sure, will do. They still need to know Sombers shipping address though.

[Meleagridis]

What did they do with the dead in vaults/stables that didn't recycle corpses?

[Scootayay]

afaik they incinerated them

And I now have the shipping address!

Okay, so where who do I give the stuff to?

The robot froze as she finished removing the casing. She looked back at me. “What did you say? You do what now?”
“Put dead ponies in the reprocessors…” I blinked at her shocked and disgusted expression. “What? That’s what we’re supposed to do, right?”
“Uh, maybe if you like a high protein diet,” she said, still looking a little shaken. “Reprocessors weren’t made for that, though. That’s why I installed an incinerator.” She gave a disgusted little shiver. “And breeding what now?”

Also, Moojave poke. I'm not sure if it's actually been that long (the start of the new semester has influenced my sense of time, I believe), but it came up in conversation earlier today.

See it's stuff like this that make me so proud of our fandom and the close knit community we built here. We give and give back and it's really nice. In short, I love you guys.

It has, and I conveniently still have a page of writing left to do today. Normally I try to avoid writing past eleven, but I feel pretty awake today.

Everybody gather round for an awkward man-hug.

[Kattlarv]

@Mele: I can tell where I'm not wanted xD

@Swicked: I tend to trail of a bit mentally in general. Very varying topics though, but a few has been PH related.

[Meleagridis]

@Mele: I can tell where I'm not wanted xD

That's the thing about the Awkward Man-Hug: it is limited by nothing. Gender, outgoingness... it surpasses them all. It does not matter who is hugging, be they woman or man or extrovert or introvert, the the stiff 'pat-pat' of the awkward man-hug transforms every embrace into itself.
Come. Join us in an awkwardly bent-at-the-waist embrace.

Are you sure shujaa would like those traditional chants?

Considering the environment she was living in I figure she would have backed away from as much of the zebra culture as possible, with the exception of martial arts.

I am sure she wouldn't give a damn about what ponies thought. A little like Steelhooves, I see some quiet pride in there. In fact, I don't doubt she'd be clinging to tradition a little more fiercely because of the scrutiny. I could see her deliberately hanging some zebra paraphernalia by her bunk not because it reminds her of her heritage but because it would make some ponies confront her. Unlike emaciated zebra foals, she could probably defend herself from a few racists. The more soldiers that harass her about being zebra, the more opportunities she has to defend her honor and dedication to the equestrian armed forces.

It's a little self destructive. Which is why I believe it. That harmful urge draws together a few characters in PH.

But in answer to the actual question, I believe she would listen to them. Most of her listening pleasure, however, would be on something much more new to her.

[O. Hinds]

Here's a question I've thought of: did the Remnant have any relations with Xenith's tribe, and, if so, what?

[CamoBadger]

Troll answer: They're the ones that burned it

Real answer: I honestly couldn't say. I don't remember if we ever got a good location for where Xenith's tribe was at, or if they migrated around on a consistent basis. If they were migratory, I would guess they might have traveled through the Hoofington area at some point and come into contact with them, but since we don't have any real info on them it would all be conjecture.

[Meleagridis]

Checking the wiki, it says she wasn't part of a tribe. Survivors of a zebra stable.

'Course, that wiki isn't the most reliable source.

[Ketchup]

...
I think she was part of a tribe at some point. I barely remember much about Xenith's background, though.

[CamoBadger]

I thought that she was in a tribe that got attacked or something. She got sent to Filly as a slave, and her daughter and the other foals started up a town near Canterlot.

[OneMoreDaySK]

If I recall correctly, which is more recent as I'm rereading it, her grandparents came from Stable 3 and escaped. Not too sure whether or not the zebra population went migratory as it wasn't explained upon too much, but yeah, Xenith got captured, her husband slain, and her child left under the shadow of the Doombunny.

[Harmony Ltd.]

I was going to say something,

but then I realized I was confusing Xenith with Xanthe.


Damn stripes and their confusing names ! *angrily shakes fist*

[CannonFodder]

Is Somber still sick? Anybody hear from him in a while?

[Harmony Ltd.]

You mean more recently than this post ?

Well, ask Scootayay. She's the one who spoke to him through mails for the book thingy.

I feel dumb now.

RACIST I'll have you whipped!

[Harmony Ltd.]

Well, considering that post was almost 6 days ago, and that Scootayay's post with Somber's mail answer in it was easily missed through all the chatter, there's no reason to.

It's just that certain people have strange hobbies.

BETTER WHIPPED THAN STRIPPED !!
