Whats love got to do with it?
Chapter 100: 100. Q&A Session with the cast.
Previous Chapter Next ChapterWell everyone I have reached a milestone today with the 100th chapter to 'What's love got to do with it?' First off I would like to thank each and every person who has Favorited and tracked the story. Next I want to thank Zaibatsu for giving me a shit ton of ideas for future chapters. He gave me the Idea for the adult Cutie Mark Crusaders. Thanks bro. Also I'm not sure if I am missing anyone but if I am I will edit this to add you.
Ok, let me start of by saying that I recieved quite a few questions for the cast of 'What's love got to do with it?' and I am very proud to have them here with me today to answer those questions. I would also like to thank Pinkie Pie for the help in breaking the fourth wall to bring them here Thanks Pinkie.
Pinkie: "No problem, I'm just glad we could all get away from Equestria for a day to help out our author."
Midnight: "Author? What are you talking about Pinkie? And where the hell are we?"
Pinkie: "Oh don't worry your pretty little head. The author is the non pony writing our story."
Midnight: "What? Story? Wait............ You mean we have this author guy to thank for giving us all this hell that we've been put through?"
Pinkie: "Right'o'rooney."
Midnight: " WHERE IS HE AT? IMMA KICK HIS ASS!"
Author: "Easy now big guy, if it weren't for me then you would not only still be human on earth being bored out of your mind and living a pointless life. You would also not have met these wonderful ponies and dragon, have multiple lady friends, be popular, be powerful, or have a child. Now what do you have to say about that?"
Midnight: "I'm still gonna kick your ass regardless. You have put me and these poor girls through hell and killed me three times already. Fuck dude! What did I ever do to you?"
Author: "You helped in making me love to write again."
*crickets chirping*
Midnight: "O.....kay, lets go everyone we need to get back to our own reality."
Author: "But what about all of your fans? They want to ask you some questions."
Midnight:"Fans?" *toothy grin* "Well I guess I could stick around for a while to answer some questions."
Author: "Fantastic! Let's get started. Our first questions is for you Midnight. (Whatever happened to Witch Hazel at the end of chapter 56?)
Midnight: "Little Hazel, she survived the wrath of the shadow hunter and the ensuing fight. However she was magically damaged when the shadow was stripped from her. She and her parents were moved to Canterlot by the princess' so that she could be properly healed by the royal courts Doctors. They are the most highly capable ponies of healing in all of Equestria and have taken it upon themselves to see that she is fully restored to her original health before the shadow took over her body. My nieces sometimes get to see her and have grown quite close to her since that day. Hazel is a good little filly now that all that mess has come and gone. She was just misunderstood is all."
Author: "Good to hear my boy, and just to let everypony know, Hazel will be seen in a future chapter."
Midnight: "This still creeps me out that you have been writing all this shit."
Author: "Get over it ya big baby."
Midnight: *snorts flames*
Author: "Moving along our next question is for Midnight again, Boy you are popular today."
Midnight: "Thank you, thank you very much."
Author: "God you suck at impressions."
Midnight: "Bite me."
Author: "Alright then, your question is from another reader. (Did you ever go the amusement park that Discord and Pinkie created, if so what was your favorite/least favorite ride or attraction there?)"
Midnight: "Well to tell you the truth, Discord had some pretty fucked up ideas when it came to making rides. But he did take my advice on one ride that I absolutely loved. With his Chaotic magic he pulled of a fantastic Realitivity by M.C. Escher. It is by far one of my favorite pieces of art."
Rarity: "My goodness, I wasn't aware that you enjoyed art darling."
Midnight: "Hmmmm could've sworn I told you that. Oh well, more pieces to the puzzle. Heh."
Author: "Alright, next question is for Midnight and Celestia together. (What is Celestia gonna name her foal?)"
Celestia: "Midnight and I had decided on the name Starlight Flame since our foal is a colt. We chose this name for several reason's. The first was of course Midnight's idea, at the time I was not aware that he was simply making fun of me because I am the sun Goddess. That is where Star came from. Light was both of our choosing because the young one is the light of our lives. Flame, on the other hoof was because somepony had to put forth his last name to show that the foal was indeed his."
Midnight: "And might I add it is a wonderful name for a strong young colt to grow up with." *smirk*
Celestia: *facehoof*
Midnight: "Whaaaaaat? Come on it's a great name."
Author: "Alright you two, let's move on to the next question. This one is for Evil/Chaotic Midnight."
Chaos Midnight: "Well well well, looks like I have a fan." *smirks at good Midnight* "What does my fan ask?"
Author: "Your fan asks, Why u so evil bro?"
Chaos Midnight: ".......... Seriously? That's the question I was asked? *sighs* I am 'so evil' because I am the complete opposite of goody four hooves over there. What he thinks is bad I think is good. He doesn't believe in hitting women or mares, I can't wait to smack a bitch for no reason. Its black and white, love and hate, good and evil. Oh and by the way I LOOOOOOOOOVE spiders. That little pussy over there is terrified of an eight legged bug."
Midnight: "Dude they are fucking creepy and shit."
Chaos Midnight: "At least I know what to do now if we ever get separated again. I'll just turn into a big ass spider and chase your pussy ass off."
Midnight: *whines*
Author: "Alright you two, save it for the honeymoon. Our next question is for Midnight once again, dang buddy, you be all up in dis shit."
Midnight: "I know right?"
Author: "Why u be trolling all the time?"
Midnight: "Trolling is fun at times as long as it doesn't harm the one I'm trolling. Besides, they usually start it and I just seek revenge by trolling them back. It's all in good fun though. I never mean any harm behind what I do."
Author: "Here's another one for you Midnight, How can you handle all the mares that throw themselves at you bro?"
Midnight: "I like this guy, heh. Well it makes things far easier when you're an Alicorn. Wielding magic to change your shape and/or form, plus having an extensive amount dexterity helps with 'dealing' with all of them. Except for Twilight, she is insatiable when it comes to that specific area."
Twilight: "HEY! I'll have you know that I have read several books on how important it is to have a healthy sexual appetite with a lover. However you were my first and I was in the thralls of a magic induced heat. Once I started I didn't want to stop *blush*"
Rainbow Dash: "Dang Twi, I honestly can't believe Night was your first. I thought all those romance novels looked a little worse for wear the last time I picked up a Daring do book."
Twilight: "SHUTUP RAINBOW!"
Rainbow Dash: "I still remember that one time I walked in when she was clop...."
Twilight: "Finish that sentence and I'll turn you into an earth pony for the next five years."
Rainbow Dash: "Shutting up."
Author: "Alright you two, lets take a chill pill before someone gets turned into something we might regret. Our next set of questions goes to Midnight, we have three questions for you from this person. The first is, How many pranks can you pull out in 5 mins? The second is, What else scares you as well as spiders? And the third is, What are you going to do when the mares go into heat again?"
Midnight: "Wow, ok lets see. The pranks really depend on if they are quick and easy against multiple ponies or long drawn out ones that are multiple pranks mashed into one. However, I have successfully pulled around forty-three pranks in succession on the maids, butlers, and guards all within five minutes of the first one going off within the castle grounds. Some of them still think it was Luna that did it."
Luna: "WHAT WAS THAT?!"
"Midnight: "*whistles innocently* Alright, as for the second part of your question, not much scares me besides spiders. I have the constant fear of loosing a loved one due to circumstances beyond my control, which at the moment is next to nothing. Other than that, nothing else comes to mind. I do get startled easy when I'm not expecting someone to shout or scream at me. *eyes Pinkie Pie* And as for the third question, I have no clue. As I am sure you are aware from Author, I have a healthy sexual appetite. However that doesn't mean I am going to go around knocking up every mare I see. Nope, I have a plan in the works when it comes to that special time of the year. I won't say what but I'm sure Author is going to show it in due time."
Author: "To true Midnight, I think our audience is going to get a kick out of it. Our next set of questions goes to our resident Librarian, Ms. Twilight Sparkle. Your first question is by the same person who asked Midnight his last three questions. (What was going through your mind when you whipped off the towel from Charles?)"
Twilight: "WHAT!? Seriously?! Do I have to answer that?" *Look of shock and disbelief*
Author: "Eeyup."
Twilight: *groan of annoyance* "Well, to be honest......... I was very curious to meet another sentient species and wanted to know everything about him........ Once I learned he was male and had a lot of intelligence. As well as his love for books nnnnnnnngh, FINE I'll just say it! It was the biggest turn on I have EVER had the chance of experiencing. I had to know what he looked like under that towel! I just LOVE a guy with a huge........... IQ." *blush*
Author: "Sure ya do Twilight." *bro hoofs Midnight* "Alright, next question is, (If I could prove that there is a theory for turning a SPHERE inside out, what would you do?)"
Twilight: "WHAT!? That isn't possible without causing irreparable damage to the structure of the sphere, unless of course you are attempting to use magic to hold it's integrity flush with the walls before turning it inside out. But still, unless you have an entry point into the inside of the sphere I highly doubt it would be possible. But if you could show me the theory, nnnnnngh, and prove that it could work.............. Oh sweet Celestia I would be yours." *bites lip seductively*
Author: "Uh oh Midnight, looks like you might have some competition for Twilight's affection."
Midnight: "Hey, Twilight and I are in an open relationship. It's cool. But I hold no responsibility if that guy dies before getting Twilight off a hundred times in a row."
Twilight: "That's why I love magic, it has so many uses to keep a pony pinned and at attention until I say otherwise."
Midnight: "I can vouch for that. It still scares the shit out of me everytime Twi gets a little antsy." *shudders*
Twilight: "You love every second of it."
Midnight: "Can't argue with that." *chuckles*
Author: "Ok Twilight, next question, How do you feel about being with Midnight AND Rarity as one big happy family?"
Twilight: "It's rather interesting really, Although polygamy is practiced in Equestria due to the low male population, I never really thought that I would be part of one of those relationships. I'm just glad it is with a close friend rather than some pony I don't know."
Author: "Final question before we move on Twi, If you're with Midnight, does that mean the CMC can call you AUNT?"
Twilight: "I guess that would be possible, however Midnight has not asked me to marry him as of yet so technically the term aunt wouldn't apply. That doesn't mean that I won't dislike them calling me Aunt. I just can't wait until My brother Shining armor and Cadence have a foal of their own so that the little one can call me Aunty Sparkle."
Author: "That is just to cute Twi. Alright, our next set of questions are for the lovely Miss Rarity."
Rarity: "Why thank you darling, I do hope that I have a few good ones."
Author: "Yup. You are going to love these." *evil grin* "When you have a foal with Midnight, what would you call it if it was a boy? And what would you call it if it was a girl?"
Rarity: *Expression of complete shock along with a full body blush* "M-my word! I honestly never thought of that before. To be honest, if we had a foal I would rather like to name them after myself or Midnight. I think Ruby would be a lovely name for a filly, and knowing Midnight all to well, we could name our colt Granite or Coal. Diamonds do come from coal, so that name would be an absolute gem."
Author: "UGH! That was a TERRIBLE pun Rarity. Alright next question for the ivory princess. Do you mind spiders?"
Rarity: "EW NO! Absolute horrid creatures. I would feel better if there were none at all within Equestria. But then there would be a lot of other insects if they all disappeared. Although I don't like spiders, I don't discourage others from hating them. Does that sound like a fair answer?"
Author: "Sounds alright with me. Last question for Rarity. If Midnight came back drunk, what would you do?"
Rarity: "Well he has come home before rather tipsy, he can be rather rambunctious when in that state so I have my fun with him until he either passes out, or I get tired and lock him out of the bedroom. Overall though he is still the gentlestallion when he has had a few to many, although a little less chivalrous." *eyes Midnight*
Midnight: "Heh, what can I say? Having the most beautiful mare in Equestria as my fiance keeps me antsy."
Twilight: "And what am I? Chopped liver?"
Midnight: "No dear, I am proud to have you as the most intelligent marefriend a stallion could ever have. Your intellect is second to none."
Twilight: "Awwwww, you are so sweet. *kiss*"
Midnight: "I know how to please my ladies."
Rarity: "Quite." *giggle*
Author: "Keep it in your pants bro."
Midnight: "But I'm a pony, I'm just swinging in the breeze WOOOOOOOOO!" *wiggle wiggle* *WHACK* "GOD DAMMIT WHERE THE HELL DID THAT RAKE COME FROM?!"
Screwball: "Hehehe, oops, sorry."
Midnight: *groan of annoyance*
Author: " Alright, this next question is for Midnight, Twilight, and Rarity all together. As this is the 100th chapter, how do you feel about my buddy Tardis34 making a scene for EVERY chapter up to chapter 100 and possibly beyond?"
Rarity: "As long as he doesn't make fun of my mishaps in the past I am perfectly fine with it. Let the darling draw them."
Twilight: "That sounds rather interesting, I would love to see some of our previous adventures drawn out so that they can be shared amongst everypony.
Midnight: "Draw all of the smutty stuff and both of there more hilarious moments. I fucking dare you! I want to see that shit and remember it forever."
Twilight: *FWOOSH* "MIDNIIIIIIIGHT!"
Pinkie: "OOOO Your Twilight Sparkle just evolved into Rapidash!"
Midnight: "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh!" *runs away screaming as fireballs are being thrown at him.*
Twilight: "Come back here and face me like a stallion you CHICKEN!"
Midnight: "But I'm a big chicken just like you said! SEE!? *bock bock begock* OW! Dammit Twilight quite it! OW FUCK THAT BURNS! SORRY SORRY I DIDN'T MEAN IT I SWEAR!"
Twilight: "Fine, but if I see even ONE smutty picture of us by that artist I am not only going to roast him, But you as well." *snort*
Author: "Yet another reason why I am glad to not be in Equestria."
Twilight: "What is THAT supposed to mean?"
Author: "Nothing! Moving on to the next question. Oh Twilight, I think you have a fan because this fella has made a list in honor of your preferred method of organization."
Twilight: *BLUSH* "R-really? I feel honored, and a little warm."
Author: "Alright then, first questions are for you Twilight, If Midnight/Charles asked you to marry him as well as Rarity would you?"
Twilight: "*blush* Yes I would, I think my parents would be very proud of me for marrying him. I am a star pupil of Celestia, Why not at bride to the only male Alicorn as well." *squee*
Author: "Too cute Twi, Alright next question for you is, Did you ever get around to finishing any of the books Midnight donated while he was Charles?"
Twilight: "Actually I have scanned everyone of them with the memory spell that he gave me. I currently have 43,261 books scanned into my memory."
*Entire cast jaws drop*
Twilight: "What? I love to read!" *giggle*
Author: "I'll say. *ahem* Ok next question, If you and Midnight had a foal what would you name it?"
Twilight: "Oh my gosh! Um........... I haven't scanned a book on baby names before, um............. I'm not sure, If we did have a foal I would like to at least have it's last name Sparkle, as for a first name I'm not sure. I will have to think about that one for a while."
Author: "Dang Midnight, you guna be a busy boy."
Midnight: "Don't remind me." *rolls eyes*
Author: "Alright next set of questions goes to you Midnight."
Midnight: "Again? Wow, alright. Shoot."
Author: "Have you ever thought about doing some inventing while in Alicorn form? If not why?"
Midnight: " I have thought about inventing a few things but I still have a lot to learn about this world as well as think of the repercussions of adding human technology to Equestrian technology and magic. Needless to say I have had countless thoughts of how to improve this worlds standard of living, but I don't want to make things so easy for ponies that they end up like the people from earth. Fat, lazy, unmotivated, and dependent on the government or ruler to support them. I have been working on my own book about magic and its uses though."
Twilight: "When did you start that book?! I want to read it!"
Midnight: "Sorry dear, you will have to wait until it is finished, and you can't use the scan spell."
Twilight: *groans dancing around annoyed*
Author: "I think you be the master troll."
Midnight: "Meh, I try."
Author: "Next question, Opinions on Stetsons? If I sent you a stetson would you wear it for the rest of the Q&A? P.S. Ask whoever handled the questions for the attached Stetson..."
Midnight: "Stetson's are fantastic hats, AJ loves the one I got her, but having one when you're an Alicorn is a little hard at times. You have to place it just right over your horn, plus the hat will always move because of my mane. I like them, but they aren't really for me. You can keep the stetson Author."
Author: "Thanks Night." *Places hat on head* "Now all I need is some banjo chase music and a pissed of AJ chasing me."
Applejack: "Don't make me buck you upside the head smarty pants."
Author: "Aw come on now, don't be like that. Anyway, next question is for Miss Rarity. Seeing as you work with gems are they a very common object? If not how much are they worth?"
Rarity: "Gems are a somewhat uncommon item but are plentiful in many different areas of Equestria. There are a few species among this world that actually eat them as a delicacy or as a normal food supply. My little Spikey Wikey loves them. Although I have not tried to taste one myself, Spike has told me about the many different flavors that each gem is unique to. Ruby's taste like Watermelon, Citrine like lemon, topaz like honey, emerald like kiwi, fire ruby's like strawberries, oh my there are just so many different kinds its hard to keep track. But overall gems are plentiful. Otherwise all of the dragons and diamond dogs would starve. As for the overall value of gems, there really isn't any value to them. A single gold bit would get almost a wagon full of them if that is of any reference."
Author: "Wow, that sounds rather interesting. I guess Dragon taste buds are quite different from any other species. No wonder Spike loved those Baked Bad's that AJ and Pinkie made a while back.
Pinkie: "Don't remind me. *urp*"
Author: "Alrighty then, onto the next question. Oh! This one is for the lovely Miss Fluttershy. Don't be afraid dear come on down."
Fluttershy: "*squeak mumble*
Author: "Now Fluttershy, One of our readers wants to know two different things. What's the air speed velocity of an unladen swallow? 2: If you could have any Everfree forest animal as a pet that won't harm anypony. Which would if be and why?"
Fluttershy: "Oh my, that first question is rather hard but I'll try my best to answer it. Depending on the weight of the swallow, the normal speed would be between seven and eighteen meters per second. I hope that helps, and as for the other question, I would love to have a baby hydra as a pet, they are scary when they get bigger, but if they would never harm a pony or other creature I would love to have one. I already have a Manticore as a pet, Mr. fluffy is always such a nice kitty. He helps to guard my home seeing as it's on the edge of the Everfree forest. Angel bunny doesn't like him though."
Author: " Thank you Fluttershy you did very well. Alrighty, onto our next question. Oh princess Celestia, this ones for you, Is there a custom for family last names? Because on earth humans have to take the last name of a spouse upon marriage and often several members of the family will have the same last name."
Celestia: "Here in Equestria everypony has the choice to take a spouses last name. Some families require it such as the Apple family. If Applejack were to marry Midnight, he would have to take Apple as part of his name. Some of the names are traditional while others are purely optional or taken out of respect to the family. But overall, no pony is required to change their last name.
Author: "Thank you princess, that was rather educational. Our next question goes to Princess Luna. Did you know that several humans suffer from a disorder that prevents sleep at night called insomnia? Is there anything similar for ponies?"
Luna: "Why yes, that same disorder does plague some ponies at times, however we have Zecora to thank for showing us an herb that helps to put a pony to sleep, If I recall, it is called Valerian root.
Author: "Hey, I take that on a regular basis for my insomnia. Pretty potent stuff. Alrighty, This next question is for both of our princess'. Did you know your names both mean Sun and Moon in another Earth language respectively?"
Celestia: "Midnight had mentioned this to us before, Although a bit strange, I do not find that it is unwelcome. For as long as both Luna and I have lived, we have come to realize that, although far apart or possibly even in a different dimension. Language barriers will ultimately have words relating to other words even though they will be spoken differently. So It is no surprise.
Luna: "I agree, there are countless different languages within the universe, hearing that there is another word for the sun and moon is no surprise. But thank you for letting us know."
Author: "Wow, I never really thought of that ya know? Countless languages and countless ways to say one particular thing. just awesome. Ok then, let's move on shall we? Our next question is for Princess Luna again. *snicker*"
Luna: "Author? What is so funny?"
Author: " The question is, Has anyone ever called you 'Woona' before?"
Luna: "*facehoof* TIA! Did you tell anypony about that?"
Celestia: "No dear sister *snicker* but now that the cat is out of the metaphorical bag, why not indulge our reader?"
Luna: *sigh* "Very well then, Although I do find that nickname rather irritating if spoken by some, I do have one particular young colt who started that trend of calling me Woona. He is an adorable young colt, his name is Pip. The first time he called me that I was rather stunned and thought it rather cute that he had accidentally mispronounced my name. Although uncommon for one to call me that, I find it somewhat cute if spoken by the young ones."
Midnight: "Awwwwww, does Woona need a hug?"
Luna: "If thee values thy family jewels, then thee would take great care in what thee say to thy Princess of the Night. *glare*"
Author: "OUCH! Better watch it Midnight, Luna looks like she could freeze a barrel of water at fifty yards with that glare. Oh well, onto the next question. Luna, Have you thought about having a foal with Midnight, just like Celestia?"
Luna: "WHAT?!............."
Midnight: "So you have thought of it then. Hehehehe."
Luna: "At one point yes, I will admit it. However, My sister has just recently given birth and has left the Kingdom of Equestria in my care until she see's fit to take on the responsibilities once again. But for the time being, no. Maybe sometime in the future once the young one has grown."
Author: "Awwww, I would love to see what your child would look like with Midnight. With both of you having a dark coat I would think the little one to be one with the night as well."
Luna: "Thank you author, we shall see."
Author: "Cool, ok our next question is for Big Macintosh and Fluttershy. When are you getting married?"
Big Macintosh: *eyes bug out*
Fluttershy: *faints*
Big Macintosh: *checks on Fluttershy while answering* "Well, we ain't quite yet got to that point. We've only been on a hoof full of dates. Ah don't quite reckon we're ready to settle down."
Author: "To bad, I think your foals would be adorable."
Big Macintosh: *glare*
Author: *ahem* "Anyway, next question is for every member of the cast, whoa. The question is, How many of you would like to feature in a epic rap battle and who will you want to go with?"
*soft talking heard for a few minutes between the cast*
Midnight: "I'm not to fond of rap as I find lyrics not to be actual music. Music is done with instruments. But if I had to choose a battle I would have to go up against Discord or my evil twin. Going up against my twin would be a very close battle. Discord, not so much."
Celestia: "A rap battle? Although I am familiar with the term I do not see the point in doing a rap battle."
Luna: "I would go up against my sister obviously, After spending a thousand years on the moon I had to pass the time somehow. Rapping in my previous tongue was all to easy and made for quite the show."
Big Macintosh: "Nope."
Fluttershy: "Um........... I don't want to battle. ....... If thats okay with you."
Twilight: "Alright! Finally I can put all of my knowledge to use by rhyming some words to destroy my competitor. I would definitely go up against Princess Celestia, Midnight, and Rainbow Dash. I have quite a few things I'd like to say."
Celestia: "Twilight?"
Midnight: "I accept your challenge, be prepared for a hurting like no other."
Twilight: "Bring it Night, and don't worry Princess, it's all in good fun."
Rainbow Dash: "I'm not really good with rhymes, but I never back down from a challenge."
AppleJack: "Boy howdy, anyone who goes up against me is looking for a hurting. I don't right have anypony that I would want to go up against though.
Granny Smith: "I'll take on anypony, dern whipper snappers thinking they can beat this ol'mare, they gots another thing comin."
Author: "Dang! Granny Smith is about to open a can on somepony."
Granny Smith: "Not a can youngin, A barrel."
Author: "Aw yea! Get on it Granny Smith."
CMC: "We accept any challenges when it comes to rap battles."
Rarity: "I may be high class but that doesn't mean I cant throw down some sick or dirty lyrics. I have nopony I would challenge, but welcome anypony who does because they have another thing coming if they think they can best me."
Pinkie Pie: "I'll take on anypony and make them smile in defeat as I break the fourth wall over their head!"
Author: "Dang, Pinkie is about to go Pinkamena on some ponies flank."
Pinkie Pie: "Awwww yea! *hoofbump*"
Author: "Alright everypony, calm down. We have all the time in the world for those rap battles, We have another question, this ones for you Twilight. Since Twilight figured out that Midnights' transformation back to human is controlled by the amount of magic he depletes compared to the amount he is able to absorb, will he spend more time in his human form willingly to keep his magic levels high enough to retain his Alicorn form when he needs it? Or will it be totally random when he looses his Alicorn form?
Twilight: "We have found out that over time Midnight will revert back into his human form Charles once his magic is depleted to a specific point. Once he has run out of magic and stops attempting to use magic for a specified time he will revert to a human once again. However, after his human form has adapted to the magic that his body is using and consuming on a regular basis, he will no longer revert back to his human form. This does not include his ability to willingly transform himself back into his human for with the use of magic. We are currently working on several methods to store magic in a condensed state for in such a case as there is a need to use massive amounts of magic at any given time. So don't worry. Midnight may revert back to his human form sometime in the future but he also has the ability to morph into that form if he so wishes."
Author: "That sounds awesome Twi, sure wish I could do that. Ah well. Ok then, we have a special request from PaladinWolf. He wants to know if he can get a hug from our resident Princess of the night."
Luna: "Well I can't simply say no to a fan now can I? *HUG*"
Author: "To cute Luna, to cute. Alright then, lets move on. Our next question is for................... *looks at the paper again* Me?!"
Midnight: "Alright! Congrats author."
Author: "Heh, thats pretty cool. Alright then, this fella has quite a few questions for me. Lets begin.
1.What was it like when you first started 'What's love got to do with it?'
Hmmmm, At first it was all up in the air, I had written another story previously and didn't like the way it turned out so I canceled it and started over from scratch. As I began to go through the story and get more in depth with the main character as a complete copy of myself, I constantly found interesting methods of implementing myself to given situations that would not only be humorous, but at times suspenseful as well. Starting out was a chore as getting a solid foundation for the given storyline was hard. I had wanted to end the story with the death of the main character and stop there, however I received a lot of messages asking for me to continue the story. From that point on I told myself to continue to write as long as I am happy with writing. The praise from the community helps keep me going because I have never had a fan base before. Pleasing my fans makes me happy so I have no intention of ending the story anytime soon.
2. Did you expect it to be a success?
Honestly, no. I just wanted to write the story because it was in my head. I didn't think it would have gotten as far as it did had it not been for my awesome fans.
3. Was it a success at first?
No, not at first. I had to advertise my story a little at first and posted to other stories I had read, hoping that others would click my name to see if I had any stories. From that point it began to pick up speed. Now all I want is it to get featured.
4. Any challenges along the way?
YES! grammar nazi's were the biggest problem. However at this point I would like to thank them for helping me see all of my mistakes that were constant in my story. I have become a better writer because of their constant belittling.
5. Did you get any harsh criticism and if so how did you take it?
I will share a story about this. I had an internet stalker once that constantly found any and everything I would post then make a stupid comment. It eventually got to the point where I had to get a lawyer to handle it. It stopped for a month before picking up again. After finding out that it was the same person and he broke parole by harassing me once again, he is spending the next ten years (from his court date) in prison. At that point I told myself that I would no longer get upset with trolls online because they are just sad little people themselves and have no life. So I took criticism in stride so it wouldn't bother me. I used that information given by the trolls or criticizers and applied it to better myself in this field so that not only would the ammunition that they would receive be little to none from my mistakes, but it would help me out in the process by increasing my skills in writing."
6. What were your initial goals and reasons for writing this in the first place?
I had no real goal at first because I never had a fan base. My only reason for writing this was to put it out there so I could read it later when I started on a different writing project so that I could help better myself. The reason for writing it is because I love MLP FIM. I have written countless other stories but never posted them. I will admit that I used to be a FURRY at one point and even went to a convention one time. I have many furry friends but over time lost the will to stay as a so called fur. During that time and even til now I wrote furry stories, then gradually shifted to Sonic the Hedgehog mixed with my furry OC which his name is my handle 'FurStreak' I have kept that handle all this time because it is unique to me. Anyway, I just wanted to write because it was fun to have written a story then read it later on only to say 'I wrote that?'."
7. Any specific Inspirations?
Sonic the hedgehog, Furry/Furries, my love for art and writing, MLP FIM, Many of the cartoons I love and still watch, Anime and related animations, classic cars/trucks, science, biology, aeronautics, space, astrology, good god I have TONS of things that inspire me, but the number one thing would be my fans for helping me keep this story alive. Thank you all for your continued support and praise.
