I felt really stupid earlier this semester for dropping out of pre-calc two weeks in, like I was crazy because the "review" section made me doubt that I had ever learned math right in the first place. Found out today from a former classmate that their current class average is "failing", so guess my instincts called it right after all.
Another Week another Practice. Not a fan of how the tail came out with the Highlights. This time with variants!
Ask Me Things!
Do it! Seriously! I wanna share as much of Azzy's story as possible but having to play both sides as an author and character is hard, so trying to offload some of that. I'm officially splitting my archive and primary silly Tumblr activities into two separate blogs. I'll see how well this works, or if a third blog will be needed to truly start getting into the "ask-space".
Evening Star - a magical fusion
Yeah it just looks like Twilight, I couldn't balance the colors right this go around. I tried.
My Mane 6 Redesigns all together! I was going to post them separately but ended up finishing them all before I got around to it lol
I experimented with eh consequences of last drawing. Kind of feel like this is too... subdued for what I was going for though.
Azzy in stolen armor. Looted the castle like a little kid raiding her mom's closet and stole some ancient battle armor.

Great to hear! Finding ponies to talk to can be quite the challenge!
Everyone! There’s a new pony in wayport town!!
And he’s nice and actually talks to me!
Adore this take, and strongly agree with it. If Discord had ever actually proven himself capable of half-functioning independently I'd have accepted his "redemption" more but as it went he was always more of a problem than he was worth.
I'm invested now, why don't you like fluttercord?
Okay, here we go then, why don't I like one of the most famous and prolific ships on the fandom?
First of all, there's a major power imbalance at play, you know, chaos god that can reshape mind and reality with a snap of his fingers matched with a regular pegasus girl, and an drastic age difference (which could be discarded cause Fluttershy's an adult, just worth a mention.)
But the primary issue comes from the canon itself, especially with how they came together. Fluttershy was just shafted for her full responsibility to be to make sure Discord gets better; Something that already was a strange choice of Celestia (like girl why are you throwing a random mortal you dont know that well onto a godlike chaos being even you struggled with? It reeks of writers already having come up a solution and not wanting to build a foundation to lead there.) and canon proves again and again that if discord doesnt have fluttershy around, he will make bad choices and hurt people, something that gets proven again and again all the way to gen fucking five. That's textbook codependency and it makes it even more weird by the incredible, terrifying power imbalance. Discord isnt just an alicorn, hes the only one of his kind because of how powerful he is, and his powers are insanely dangerous to have on a relationship with a mortal. Like, you saw how he was when he was jealous of Fluttershy for having a diffrent friend. Can you imagine what he'd do if somebody flirted with her? (even if they weren't dating, if Fluttershy said she got a girlfriend or whatever, Discord would straight up throw rainbow dash on a labyrinth of infinite agony)
I think my primary issues come from the canon because he is always abusing his powers, never using them wisely, and always causing trouble (WHICH WAS THE ORIGINAL POINT OF EVEN BRINGING HIM BACK TOO)-- And the ratio of slaps on the wrist lower dramatically by the end (the final conflict is entirely his fault purely because he thought having a conflict would be cool)-- All of which just makes him untrustworthy to be on a relationship with a mortal hes obssesed with. He'd be like a yandere boyfriend exept a chaos god, which, yikes!
Srsly the fact that cozy glow the toddler gets sent to hell and turned to stone instead of the chaos god that sponsored her is just plain WEIRD. It's a writers problem.
There's a reasons why Alicorns have to ascend, earn their power-- And why they tend to abuse it less. Being born with power just begets a diffrent attitude towards it; Which is smth that the writers do interpret quite well, with how Discord acts. he has no empathy, he doesnt need to care, because reality is his to shape, and then boom, teaching someone to be better just became a lot harder. Good character! Very funny, very well designed and voiced-- But goddamn he's weirdly written as a ""Good"" guy.
Now lets finally turn to the woman in the relationship. because Fluttershy is a normal mortal gal with a normal mortal life with her own needs, which generally shouldn't have to involve her entire life or routine on making sure a godlike manbaby does the right thing with his powers. it doesn't feel like the kind of thing that has any consent to it, after all, discord doesnt need to ask for anything, he can just do. (THANKS FOR THE IDEA CELESTIA) It just reeks of a kind of misoginy-ass writing where the woman has to bend over backwards for the man.
Its like the shy pegasus was just. Set up for LIFE on this strange relationship. Its kind of creepy.
And Fluttershy just deserves better than him in my opinion; And she can do better, too. Also it doesnt help that you know-- 99% other ship with fluttershy dont have any of these issues lmao. Even canon Rainbow Dash would treat her better, so i dont bother with Fluttercord ever!
Twilight Forest! Not a currently existing horse, more a... potential future ship child. One of several that have already been planned. What's a fire emblem inspired adventure without S Rank children rewards?
And yes the name may partially be a Minecraft mod reference, sue me
She/TheyColorful Cartoon Horses are my biggest special interest.I upload art I do here when I feel like sharing it.
