>>42482452That's very adorable!
If I was Anonstallion I would be totally incapable of existing in any other state than constant arousal due to the presence of glorious pones around me.I wouldn't be able to leave my house.
>>42482585It would be quite the challenge to be able to stay in your home especially in Ponyville. I suppose you could probably do some job at home like a writer and use unicorn magic to ask another pony at your house to buy and bring you some food but then you'd have Pinkie Pie inviting you to a lot of parties she'll be expecting you to come.
>>42482452cute
Can you guys reel your resident retard in? He's shitting up the board.
>>42482452I love the color of this image nice one thank you.
>>42482585You'll get used to it eventually. Pretty sure of that.
Any good editfags in these threads? If so, could you please turn Shining Armor into anonstallion in this pic https://derpibooru.org/images/3231469?q=artist%3Anul1998
>>42482452Might want to fix a couple things for the next OP. Eyes Without A Face isn't mine.>The rain is coming down hard on the windshield as your wipers are working overtime to give you some semblance of clarity on the road ahead of you>You realize you’re back in that shitbox hatchback on the mountain again>It does not look good out there, you can barely see past the hood of your car>Looking down to your hands at the wheel—>That’s interesting, you’re human again>Looks like your subconscious mind still sees you in your most familiar form>It’s at least a little more light out than last time>As you chug along the dirt road, you try to figure out what time of day it is>While there’s no chance of seeing the sun, you can see strands of azure waves of light trying to break through the fog>You realize the light is the same colors as the stones you dug up with Rarity>These dreams sure have been vivid lately>You continue your trek up the road when you hear something break from the back>And now your car is lurching to the right>Son of a bitch what now>You stop and get out of the car to see what happened>Your rear passenger tire is shredded to bits>Damn it all, now you gotta get the spare in this weather>At least it’s not freezing rain anymore>Just the usual, still very wet rain>Hopefully you have the tools in the back to get this thing off
>>42483372>You pop the trunk to see a lump of stuff hiding under an old crochet blanket>Mama ‘Nonymous always said to leave a blanket in the back, because you never know>Under the blanket you find exactly what you’re looking for>Lug wrench, jack and a shiny new wheel >Wow, not even the usual spare tire you find under the trunk or something>Silver linings, you suppose. Better a full sized tire than the usual tiny spare wheel, especially in this terrain>You get the jack under the car and start lifting it, muttering to yourself about the rain >The lugs finally come undone after some physical “convincing” and you get the other tire lined up>As you grab the last lug to screw back in, it slips out of your hand and rolls under you>You turn around to try and see where it landed, only to be stopped by a quadruped body that seems to have been standing behind you not a foot away this whole time>It’s the same cloaked “deer” from before>You jump back in shock, how the hell did it get so close without you knowing? Probably the rain, you suppose>It hasn’t run away, just like the last dream>It just keeps standing there>Menacingly>At least you can get a closer look at what the hell this thing is>It's definitely not a deer>Looks like a unicorn, with a longer horn than most you've seen>Standing about shoulder height, cloaked with glowing white eyes>With the low visibility it looks like it's a dark blue?>It's wings are stretched out imposingly from behind the cloak>So definitely an alicorn"Princess Twilight...?" You take a guess. She's the only alicorn you know about>The apparition seems stunned for a moment, and takes a step back>It begins to open its mouth, only for the ringing of an alarm clock to come out>BRRRRRRRRIIINNNNNNNNG!!!
>>42483162If its the glimmerposter he aint ours
>>42483373Great update to the green, interesting to see that said cloaked deer is Twilight or a sort of dream version.
>>42483416This, he's a rogue element.
>>42482585That's half the fun.
>>42483373quite the spooky reveal I wonder what this unusual dream means is twilight experiencing the same dream at the same time?
>>42404935>It was a strange feeling>Your feathers didn't have nerves>But then something would press into them>And you'd feel it>Like the wind>Or the ground>This was different though>Metal>Metal chains to be exact>Occasionally the links would pinch one and send a twinge up your wing>It wasn't quite pain>But it was a far cry from pleasant either>How did you even end up here?>"I apologize that I must leave you two so... tied up, but I have ponies to see, artifacts to sell">A terrible quip>An accent that's all over the place>Looking up, you see a brown pony with a five o'clock shadow>Doctor Caballeron>Honestly the weirdest part of him was the fact he wore clothes>You should really go visit Rarity at some point>And Rainbow's other friends>"You'll never get away with this!">There she is>Rainbow's tied up with you>And she's dressed as Daring Do>When did she start wearing clothes?>"Don't be so sure Daring Dash">That gives you pause>You look up at the new voice>It's what you can only assume is Daring Do>She fits the description at least>Weird, nonsensical situation?>No memory of how you got here?>You're dreaming again>You're not telling Rainbow about this>She has enough ego as is>But now you need to wake yourself up before that moon horse shows up again>"Dashing Do!?" The dream Rainbow asks>You can't help but chuckle to yourself at the butchery of names your brain is trying to cobble together into something coherent"Alright, I think I'm gonna wake up now">You briefly strain against the chains and they briefly go limp like noodles>"Leaving so soon?" Your imagined Daring Do asks. "But we wanted you to meet some friends of ours.">She lands next to Caballeron, seemingly allied with him>For... some reason>With a swift kick to the wall of the non-descript temple you're in, she laughs as cracks split their ways up the structure>Strangely enough there's a window across from you, completely untouched>And Applejack's kicking trees on the outside>Even in your dreams you can't get away from her>As the cracks splinter up and across the walls like spider webs, portions of stone break away, and green coils tumult out of the gaps>"You're not afraid of snakes are you?" Rainbow asks as you feel her struggle against the noodle chains>You have to shift a bit to get free>Apparently you don't have full dream control>But it's easy enough to slip out of them, though it is a bit of a squeeze"Not particularly-" you cut yourself off as you get a closer look at the 'snakes', "and those aren't snakes">Instead you're looking out at a proverbial sea of origami snakes with the head of Tank>Despite the fact you're asleep, you're already exhausted from seeing all this>You glance to your side and see your wings still bandaged and in a cast>With a brief amount of focus, you recall how your wings felt just a little over a week ago>Then, with a quick stretch, the cast and bandages move off
>>42484196>Bracing your legs you jump off and let out a sigh of relief as you feel no pain from your wings as you fly>At least>You should be flying>You're doing all the right things>But you're not moving>Just suspended in the air>Everypony and every turtle head is staring at you>With a sigh, you shut your eyes and focus again>It takes a moment, but the surroundings of the dream crumble and the imagined fakes disappear into a calm silence>You open your eyes, and you're flying>Properly this time>With movement and everything>A clear blue sky, with wisps of white cloud surround you>And it feels like home>Your gaze slowly turns upwards as it always does>You left your limits behind when you got these wings>But still, you can only go so high>Now that you're in a dream though?>Not even the sky's the limit>You turn upward and give heavy beats of your wings>With practiced ease, your breathing shifts to suit the thinner atmosphere>Then you remember that you have as much air as you need>You breathe deep and soar upward>Further and further>The clouds become thinner and thinner>Soon, even the blue of the sky above seems to stretch>It grows thinner>Paler>And gives way to deeper purple, that slowly turns to an inky black>Your breath catches as lights flicker in front of you>Stars appearing around you as best as you can remember them>You turn in the empty space, and feel yourself float>The chuckles that escape you are impossible to stop>You doubt that, even with all the magic this world has, you won't see this>And without the technology of your own, you definitely won't>But this is a close second>For a while you simply float through the empty void>One plus side of it being a dream means it isn't as dreadfully cold as you imagined the real thing was>Equestria, and the world you've come to inhabit floats below you, and slowly shrinks>Your wings flap behind you, like you're swimming backwards>Eventually you feel a small shift tug you down, uninvited>While it isn't a sudden fall, it's more like the string tied to a balloon losing helium>Your hooves kick up silver gray moondust as you land>With a hop and then a leap, again the softest tug pulls at you>You're still free>But leashed>Tethered>The moon rapidly expands before you, growing to a sea of dull rock, and the planet before is now like a marble in the sky>You tense your brow but your thoughts feel that they're in a tug of war with...>Something"Luna...">"So," a cool, regal voice echoes across the lunar wastes, "thou dost know our name">You really should have thrown yourself off the roof of that temple and woken yourself up>And you'd been doing so well>More than a week of dreamless sleep>With any dreams that did occur ending just as quick>You'd once asked about dreamcatchers>Apparently they were considered taboo>First when you'd asked about meat>Now that>You're not sure what kind of impression you were giving ponies>But you doubt it was entirely positive

>>42483373Oooh nice, a flashback I presume.>>42484207love this story, great work as usual sunn
>>42484313GM?
>>42484829Good morning
>>42484843Oh, yeah. That makes sense.
>>42484313Anonstallion when they bully spike
>>42484313I haven't took requests in forever, you guys want anything drawn? It won't be a masterpiece forewarning you there but I'll give it a shot
>>42485311Draw a scene or moment that you liked from one of the greens in these threads.
>>42485188Nah, he'd see Spike as a bro.
>>42484207How often did he get smacked for this?
>>42483373Kino, can't wait for more of this!
>>42484313Honestly? I want more scenes of angsty anon-alicorn with Celestia
>>42483373Wonder if Twilight knows or is it something else pretending to be her?
Up.
>>42486669>angstyHe doesn't look angsty to me in this pic.
>>42484207Glorious green update, bless you for the greatness.
You are now anon stallion, its half a year before episode 1. With your foresight how do you change the timeline?
>>42488064>Save the Treebrary>Do everything to prevent the Friendship School and all the shit it leads to>Smack some sense into Discord to avoid the diabolical trio idiocy plotThose are the biggest ones I can think of right away.
>>42488315>Save the Treebraryeasy enough, leave an anonymous letter to Twilight that a prisoner of Tartarus escaped and she needs to stop him NOWshould be easy enough for unicorn Twilight, especially if she gets to him soon after she puts Cerberus back, since Tirek would probably be weaker than he was in the S4 premiere>Do everything to prevent the Friendship School and all the shit it leads toI feel like you'd need to do a lot of things to stop this from happening, but I'm not sure what or how far back you'd have to affect something? Deal with Glimmer so she doesn't join the group? Stop the Crystal Eyesore from being formed? or would it be as simple as convincing Twilight not to make the book of friendship letters? you know, reinforce the idea that "friendship isn't taught, it's learned through experience">Smack some sense into Discord to avoid the diabolical trio idiocy plotI doubt Discord would listen to you or any of us for that matter, but if you told Fluttershy she'd probably put a stop to it asap
>>42488315I could see unicorn Twilight being some kind of teacher in a non-princess timeline, which wouldn't be a bad thing.
>>42488330>but if you told Fluttershy she'd probably put a stop to it asapGood point.
>>42488064Do everything in my power to befriend and reform chrysalis. Than I can get my big beautiful bug wife.
>>42485371I'll have to decide then, i like alot of scenes in peganon>>42486669this one has set my brain on fire, theres so much potential
>>42484207ah fantastic, reading this. thx
>>42488914>Do everything in my power to befriend and reform chrysalis.What would be your plan to pull that off?
>>42484196that's a very cute anon stallion
>>42482585If the other ponies can get through it fine then im sure you'll too get used to it eventually
>>42488618I agree in theory. The way it was handled in the show wasn't a good one though.
>>42482452Holy shit that's some beautiful art, we need more like it
>>42486669>>42489426Hows this? might be less angst more deliberately antagonising her
>>42490836Not that anon but I love this!
>>42490914thanks dude, it took me ages to settle on something
>>42490836I lol'd
>>42490998Celestia and her beloved chud son
>>42490836>Y'know you could just rape me right now and nopony would or could stop you.
>>42490998>Tells Celestia he's going on a goodwill mission to bat pony country>She's thrilled>A week later, that playpony issue drops
>>42490998beautiful sketches
>>42490836>Perhaps we should not give a million bits to Griffonstone
>>42490836>Spaghetti spiller anon in official situationsNow that would be bothersome for Celly.
>>42490998last spread for today, don't want to flood the thread with my schizoscribbles
>>42488914Good luck with that, Anon.
>>42490836>"Hey Celestia, want to hear this joke about zebras your sister told me?">Celestia feels fear as she remembered the kind of shit they used to say a millenia ago
>>42491545Your sketches are pretty good, I don't see anything wrong with sharing it.
>>42490836>>42490998>>42491545so what would be the best circumstance for Anonicorn in this thread? adopted son? actual son? new alicorn? and what height? full grown but short like in the sketches from the drawfag? Luna/Celestia size?
>>42490998Prince Anon Leather & FeatherI can't tell whose fault this was. Did Celestia hope he would be able to reach the outcast bats better then she could or did Luna send him?
>>42491872drawfag here, imo this anonlicorn is a human in a pony body so hes fake pony and thus a fake alicorn, hes a little homunculus.>>42491910he likes batponies : )
>>42491916Finally an Alicorn who LOVES bat ponies. I wonder if this takes place before Luna's return.
>>42491926I do, so my homunculus sketchbeast would too
>>42490998>>42491545>>42491916So from these sketches Anon is a homunculus made by Chrysalis and Sombra. Then by whatever chance, be it planned or not, he ends up getting adopted by Princess Celestia and becoming her 'unoffical' Son.
>>42491946theres no real plot or anything anon i was just spitballing random ideas, if you wanna take that direction though thats cool
>>42491966>theres no real plot or anythingPretty much what I thought. The rest is interpretation.
>>42492107y'know what? i got an idea, might be gay though
>>42492243Could you make it straight then?
>>42491946>>42492255>>42492243no clue, you tell meAnon was the product of an attempt to make a homunculus using magic, dark magic, pony parts/blood and soul energy. normally a homunculus just has a facsimile of a soul made from the soul energy of their creator, making them a step above golems but still under real people. In Anon's case his creator's went a step beyond, trying to draw soul energy/a full soul from 'beyond' to further empower their creation, it went wrong/awry and ended up with anon's soul being implanted into the homunculus in some form either his full soul or just a copy/energy of it. So instead of getting their evil fake pony they got a real person spawned from a fake body. he looks like an alicorn because they used blood/parts from all 3 tribes, making him a false alicorn. fake pony, fake alicorn.
>>42492268It's pretty cool lore/plot if I do say so myself.
>>42492268>walking around on Earth>anon's soul gets sucked the fuck out>he leaves his human body behind, dead and probably face down and ass up>get shunted into an alicorn body>he freaks out>his autistic screeching amplified by the giga-levels of alicorn magic accidentally nuke Chrysalis and Sombra>accidentally flies away, badly>the two villains are left in a smouldering crater of rubble, wondering what the fuck happened>anon, now anonicorn, meanwhile ends up crashing into, and through, Canterlot Castle>gets found by Celestia>he knocked himself out>new alicorn peaks her interest>gets to stay in the castle if he behaves>she finds entertainment in how he ruins the nobles' expectation with his inability to read social cuesit's bare bones, but it's the best idea for a set-up I could think of if someone else wants to take a crack at anonicorn
>>42492706heres some more ideas>Anon has some delicious existential angst about his soul, is he actually himself or just a >All that magic dumped onto a human soul lead to a violent reaction causing the newly 'born' anon to go practically supernova, too much disharmonious magic paired with a human soul suddenly able to use a shit ton of that kind of power = occult nuke>Sombra & Chrysalis abandon their project and run for it leaving anon alone and isolated from his creators, completely depowered after the berserker tier crash out>you end up with an anonstallion that has no idea how to use his body, how to process a human consciousness getting non-human feedback, no innate pony magic or concept of how to tap into it yet looking like a pony demigod in appearance>The guy is as much a mess as the creation of this body was
Fucking gay ass mod deleted my post and gave me a warning for posting a censored version of this. https://derpibooru.org/images/2004128?q=guardsmare%2C+pregnant>>42490998>>42491545Anyways, I wanted to say that none of us could be trusted to be the prince of Equestria, because we all would knock up all the guardsmares in the castle. God, I love a mare in uniform.
>>42490836>>42490998Perfect! How I wish there was a story based on this concept alone
>>42490998I'd like to imagine that especially after dealing with Luna's absence for a millennium, Celestia is almost incapable of viewing anon as anything less than a sweetheart. That or she views this as just an adolescent phase of rebellion.
>>42493140>linking to the spyware booruyou deserved that warning.
>>42488330>since Tirek would probably be weaker than he was in the S4 premiereDon't forget how it derails the timeline from here on out as well. No destruction, no Friendship Castle, No Friendship Castle, no map table quests, no map, no encounter with Starlight, and so on. It resets everything.
>>42488315>Not convincing Celestia and Luna to destroy Discord's statue instead
>>42493825Someone could easily rebuild the statue with magic tomfoolery.
Maybe this homunculus/ alicorn anon could be a timeline interloper? By accident or intention
>>42493473good point, I wonder what Starlight would do if she never encountered the Mane 6I mean, it's obvious that her little equality cult wouldn't have actually been able to spread, since the vast vast majority of pony society is happy with their cutie marks and would find the equality idea misguided at best or retarded at worstand without Twilight to throw the life she built for herself in the toilet, I don't think Glimmer would have the motivation to time travel and mess up the timelinehonestly, thinking about it, I think Glimmer was such a narcissist that she would have just stayed in the middle of buttfuck nowhere because she got to live out her power fantasy of being the most important mare there, surrounded by yes ponies and done nothing else
>>42494386There were cracks showing though no? Wouldn't the town eventually turn on her out of either frustration or fury when they find out shes been lying
>>42493825>implying that you can destroy chaosAll that would get you is in trouble with Discord which a big no no.
drawfag here, i did think it'd be cool to have a dark wizard anon, maybe the fake alicorn can be that too? not sure of that honestly in my head hes just got the edgy origin story we came up with the other night but otherwise hes a royal ward/hostage kept around just in case, not really powerful in a political or magical sense.>>42493158 kek, fair, i didn't know if i should make him a colt or a stallion so i made him short so he can be either in your mind>>42493146i do want to try writing more but something about writing always puts me off more than drawing, i worry about being cringe with it more than i do with my doodles
>>42488064go with the girls just so i can be nice to luna after she gets rainbow'd,find and steal the alicorn amulet, instigate the worst day ever by making sombra appear at the same time as the changelings and then give starlight the amulet, watch the fireworks.
>>42494719My man, Discord would be proud. Maybe even hand you some popcorn/chips during said events if he was free around then anyways.
>>42494456Maybe, but that could have taken years or even longer to become a tangible change.
>>42494899I can go further beyond>do the copy spell Chrysalis did and make a copy of celestia and luna to turn into nightmare moon and daybreaker>give the creation book thing to a dragon to drive it mad with greed from the ability to turn shti into gold and gems at a whim>Find the mirror pool, make clone army so i can be everywhere at once, alternative dump a bucket of parasprites into it>send clones to tartarus to break it open and release tirek and everything else>point tirek in the direction of the storm king>find grogar's bell, have clones tell every creature they meet that the other's have it and intend to use it on them>find cosy glow, pat her on the head>somehow unleash stygian way too early profit.
>>42488064on the topic of being evil, if Unicorn then I suppose I'd learn some evil magic and try to make the mane 6's lives a bit worse with all of the dark magic and it'll be almost impossible for them to find out who dunnit as i'd be blending in with the ponies unless I got dark magic comin out of my eyes after unleashing said dark magic.
>>42495077>Discord can't do anything to help or stop you because he's crippled by laughter and is doubled over so much that he's formed a mobius strip
>>42495077If we assuing Equestria Girls exists, then we can turn Sunset into an alicorn by sharing it's power with her. Now she'll never reform and we can add the Dazzlings to the earlier clusterfuck.
>Day 3.>The sun and moon have eclipsed each other, neither has moved more than a few cm ,caught in a 'tug of war' between the princesses and their duplicates>King sombra retook the crystal empire ,which also just appeared this week, and used a mirror portal to subjugate an entire world to create an army, recruiting 3 actual sirens to his side>Queen chrysalis kidnapped princess cadence and used a mirror pool to duplicate her to create 'love batteries' for her army, on top of using the pool to make alot, ALOT more changelings>There is no longer a dragonlord. the dragons went into civil war over a book that can turn anything into gold or gems at a whim>At least two dozen identical green ponies have been spreading a rumour that grogar's bell has been recovered and is going to be used by the 'enemy' against the people, hes done this everywhere from equestria to saddle arabia>A pink unicorn using the alicorn amulet has conquered manehattan, = sign banners can be seen up and down the east coast>Theres a new alicorn with hair that looks like bacon, nopony knows who she is.>it won't stop raining chocolate milk.
>>42491946>Annoooonnnnn, join me and we can rule equestria as father and son...>Anon imagines catch with sombra>Annooonnnn, join me and we can rule equestria as mother and son...>Anon imagines playing catch with chrysalis while his hundreds of siblings cheer in the stands>Compelling arguments
>>42495662That would be pretty whack.

>>42490998I honestly almost prefer this as Celestia's human spirited and exceptionally naughty biological son.
>>42497939The moment he got his cutie mark, he had reached his rebellious phase. Celestia was shocked to find out he got a bunch of piercings. He loved retelling outdated and offensive jokes his auntie taught him. Rumors circulated among the nobles that the Prince was seen engaging in keg stands in the guards' barracks. He also seemed to prefer the company of bat mares during the night.It isn't done out of malice or dislike for his mother, but instead a human doing everything he can to enjoy his second life.
Dark wizard/edgelord anon has the attentions of all the former and current villain babes.
>>42498142>It isn't done out of malice or dislike for his mother, but instead a human doing everything he can to enjoy his second life.This is the most important part. Gives it some heart and makes it substantially funnier. Celestia pulling her hair out that despite her ostensibly great relationship with her son (and his borderline suspiciously easy early childhood years) he keeps acting up. Honestly if I knew there was life after death and it was functionally life again, I'd do the same thing.
>>42498809Imagine going from a grey, dull city with an unfulfilling 9-to-5 job to a world where magic is real, everything is bright and undiscovered, you can cast magic now, and fucking fly. Yeah, I'd drive my poor mare mom up the fucking wall with how hard it would be to get me to sit still.
>>42498809To shamelessly samefag and continue this train of thought>Sometimes Celestia, after a particularly large scandal, would rest her head in he hooves and ask:>"Where did I go wrong?">But then she'd have to ask, had she gone wrong?>Her son never did anything to hurt anypony.>Never disrespected anyone who didn't deserve it (despite how inconvenient that could sometimes be).>Never acted out of malice, only really acting to satisfy whatever bizarre whim had seized him.>Had she truly gone wrong? Or right in the most frustrating way possible?
>>42498881>Anon walks in, pats her shoulder>"Mother. I'm dating that batpony I was on the cover of PONE with.">"Shes coming to the gala this weekend with me.">He walks off, leaving celestia to ponder>Was PONE the gossip magazine or the 'mare's interests' one?
>>42498142I like to imagine that Celestia would put up with it for a while with the thought that "foals will be foals" until the little shit does something that really crosses a line, which would make Celestia boil over. Could be a great learning moment for anon, that even though he wants to make the most out of his second life, he still needs to appreciate, and respect the people in that life.
>>42499480I could see that. His jackassery could ruin a really important diplomatic meeting. His mother would finally scold him harshly, tell him to act like a proper prince. Whereas Anom's old life was a soulless, repetitive grind, so he'd be like 'Who said I wanted to be a Prince?' and then BOOM! Family drama.
>>42499480To continue this thought, I'd like to think that up to this point anon had simply been blind to grief he was causing his mother, so caught up in trying to fulfill every desire that crossed his mind, that when Celestia does finally snap he'll have a moment of realization of just how self serving he had acted. That could lead to a genuine feel good bonding moment.
>>42499498That would also be good. Could lead to anon running away to keep living his rockstar lifestyle.
>>42499505Celestia would want her son to partake in most if not all of her royal duties together. Why? Luna. Celestia would more then likely be afraid that if she just ignored Anon and let him do his own thing he would also fall to darkness.
>>42419700>The festival sounds so far away from you two.>Ponies could still be heard talking and laughing and playing games, but only faintly.>Like they’re a mile away.>This playground, too.>It feels like another world entirely separate from the fun and festivities held by Ponyville.>A world occupied by only you and Sunny.>Surrounded by the faint echoes of normal civilization, alien to the both of you for different reasons.>This train of thought is more dramatic than what usually rolls through your mind, but it’s all you can think about as you and Sunny sit in silence together on the swing set.>The only other thing you notice is the slight groaning of the swings you and Sunny are sitting on.>Each creek tells the story of the years since its construction.>All the happy and sad days they’ve seen.>”...Today’s been wonderful.” Sunny says after a prolonged moment of silence between you two.>Her voice says the opposite.>”I’ve had so much fun with you today, Anonymous. I’ve done so many things for the first time, and so many things that felt like I’ve really done them for the first time.”>Sunny looks down at the ground while speaking to you, sadly rocking in the swing.>”...But…”>That word makes your blood run colder.>But what?>Was it something you did?>Was it the photo?>That was her idea, that can’t be your fault.>Sunny looks back up at you, her eyes glistening gently.>”...But what about after today?”>Your expression shifts to a more confused one.“What do you mean? What about after today?” You ask her.>Sunny sighs and returns her gaze to the ground.>”I can’t stay in Ponyville, I have to return to Canterlot in the morning. I was barely able to escape my responsibilities for one day, and even then I had to promise my sister a lot of favors.”“Wait, one day? Out of the entire year?” You ask her in disbelief.>Sunny sadly nods.“No holidays or anything?”>”I’m afraid not.” Sunny sadly answers.>Geez.>Better stop prodding this sore spot, then.>”I came to Ponyville just… seeking respite from my work, hoping to find some relaxation and merriment away from Canterlot and everything that place brings with it. Perhaps even make some new friends, too.”>Sunny looks back at you.>”...But… having found somepony like you, getting to know you better, having so much fun together… it made me realize that saying goodbye is going to be harder than I thought it would be.”>She looks down at her copy of the photo as her eyes glisten subtly more.>”I don’t know when I’m going to be able to return to Ponyville like this. I don’t know if… you’ll see me the same when I’m able to return…”“Sunny, that’s-”>”And… and I don’t know if…”>Sunny takes a deep breath to try to calm her nerves.>But her lips tremble in spite of her attempts to calm herself.>A single tear drips from her eye.
>>42500048>”...I’m afraid that you won’t be here when I return.”>What?>What could she be talking about?>You weakly chuckle, trying to lighten the mood a bit.“Believe me, Sunny. I’m not going anywhere.” You try to assure her.>She isn’t comforted by your assertion.>She just looks down at the photo in her hoof.>”It may be easy to make such a claim, to claim control over your destiny, but there are forces greater than you or I, greater than any of us that could intervene and guide our lives onto drastically different paths.”>”Ponyville could be attacked by Lord Tirek again, and I may only have this photo as proof outside of my memories that we shared our time here together…”“Sunny, Tirek’s not gonna come back and destroy us all.” You try to convince her, but this earns you little ground in this ideological battle.>”Perhaps not, but the matter at hand remains unchanged: I don’t know when I’ll be able to return here…”>”...And if I do… I fear that what we have will have withered away…”>Sunny’s on the verge of tears now, you need to intervene.>You turn to face her.>You take a bold leap and take her hooves in yours, drawing her attention away from the dirt and to your eyes.>For a moment, the moment when you two lock eyes, the world freezes.>Everything falls silent.>It’s just you and Sunny.>Don’t think about how perfectly her hooves fit yours.>Help her.“I’ve never met anypony like you, Sunny. I’ve never met anypony as kind or optimistic or… so emblematic of the elements of harmony as you. I don’t care if I have to wait years for you to find time to return to Ponyville, I’ll always be waiting for you. Because you’re worth the wait.”>Sunny sits motionless, staring into your eyes.>The tears that had been welling up in her eyes have frozen in place, as if deciding whether they should fall or not.>She’s even paused her breathing.>...Did you overstep her boundaries?>Maybe she didn’t want to be touched right now.>Is she gonna think…?>...She’d be right.>But would that hurt what you have?>You’re blocked from descending this spiraling train of thought any further when, the next thing you know, Sunny leans forward and hugs you.
>>42500051>She clings onto you so tight, like some greater force is threatening to take you away from her.>Sunny’s buried her face in the crook of your neck.>The occasional tremble tells you that she’s gently crying.>This is so far beyond what you expected to have happen today.>To make such a wonderful friend, and for her to trust you so deeply.>You return the gesture.>Carefully, you wrap your forelegs around her and return the hug.>It’s so nice.>Her body absolutely radiates heavenly warmth.>And her mane smells lovely.>All of this, every bit of her, glows a little brighter with how much she trusts you.>You sort of lose track of time.>You two sit there together, eyes shut, tightly wrapped in each other’s embrace.>The festival might as well have been erased from existence.>You…>You like Sunny.>A lot.>More than you’ve ever liked a mare before.>...>...But she will have to leave tomorrow.>Go back to Canterlot, and not return until who-knows-when.>Your heart stings when this reality really sinks in.>...But you have to be strong.>Listen to your own advice.>If Sunny feels as strong for you as you do for her, your hearts will keep you united across space and time.>If she feels as strong for you.>How can you be sure about this?>You inhale through your nose.>Sunny’s essence blesses your consciousness once again, washing away your concerns.>Blessing you with the feeling that somehow, in some way, everything’s gonna be alright.>And, in some strange way, you get the feeling that Sunny’s getting the same feeling from you.>After however long it’s been since you two started hugging, the two of you pull away from each other at the same time.>It’s only when you blink your eyes that you realize your eyes had been filling with tears as well.>The both of you weakly laugh and wipe away the accumulating wetness in your eyes, feeling liberated by this expression of vulnerability.>”I have to admit something rather embarrassing…” Sunny chuckled, piquing your interest.>She idly kicks the dirt below her before continuing.>”...I’ve never swung on a swing set before.”
>>42500053>Your eyes shoot open in surprise.“Really?”>Sunny giggles softly at your response, but nods.“But… how?”>”My childhood was… rather formal.” She sheepishly explains.>She gently rocks in the swing, giving you an idea.>You get up from the swing.“Well, then, we should do something about that, huh?”>”Hm?” Sunny asks you.>You elaborate by getting behind Sunny, placing your hooves on her back, and gently pushing her forward on the swing.>The swing brings Sunny upward on its arc, bringing the pegasus a little closer to the sky.>”Anon, this is hardly necessary!” Sunny laughs as the swing brings her back toward you.>You catch her with your hooves and gently push her again.“I disagree! Little Miss High Society’s long overdue for some fun like this!”>You push Sunny on the swing again, pushing her slightly higher.>Sunny tries to protest for the sake of her dignity, but her laughs overtake her.>She’s having too much fun on the swing to care about things like dignity.>Sunny comes back down, but you don’t really catch her this time.>You let the swing do its thing and allow the counter force of the swing coming back down bring her up the back.>But looking at her, you can really tell she’s never been on a swing before.>Her hind legs stay locked in front of her through the whole ride up and down, leaning forward and backward as she descends and ascends.>It’s a very endearing sight.“Tuck your legs on the way down! You’ll preserve more momentum that way!” You advise Sunny.>Sunny is quick to adjust to your instruction, and becomes a natural at swinging in no time.>You can’t help but smile at the sight.>She laughs so freely as she swings, with the sun glistening in her mane.>”Join me, Anonymous! A pleasure shared is a pleasure doubled!” Sunny calls out to you.>Who would you be to let your lady friend swing by herself?>You pull back the swing you were sitting on and run forward, hopping on just as it begins its upward movement.>You show off your years of expertise with the swing set as you quickly match Sunny’s pace.>Her joyful laughter infects you, making you laugh with her.>You two make an incredible duet.>Laughing together, swinging together, without a care in the world.>You look over at Sunny at the crest of the swing, and Sunny looks over at you in the same moment.>There’s a sparkle in her eyes that shines brilliantly with her smile.>And a blossoming blush to her cheeks.>Your heart flutters when you see her like this.>And you get the feeling her heart fluttered, too.
>>42500056Nice to see an update. Gotta have to read that later.
>>42500056Thank you! I've been waiting for an update to this sweet story! Anonstallion and Sunny make an adorable couple, but whatever conflict arises that keeps them apart will hurt to read through when the time comes.
>>42500056Good to have you back, Cosmic! That was a very cute update and I'm looking forward to more.
>>42500056very lovely! Celestia will definitely find ways to sneak out of the castle to continue the great fun she's having with Anonstallion after this!

>>42502168No one here is an autogyniphile tho
>>42502300don't respond to him, dude is obsessed to the point he checks the thread if the mod did his job and cleant it up
>>42500914immaculate conception has a lot of potential drama, with either Celestia or Anon using the cliche "I didn't ask for this" as just the tip of the iceberghowever alternate comic Sombra would be a WILD ride
>>42502395drawfag here, i really like the idea, anon almost never has a dad in the stories at least from what i've read in the op and archive. Anon dad being sombra would be strange, you could probably do some cool shit with that but im unfamiliar with the comics.
>>42502496>but im unfamiliar with the comics.while it would be cool I'm not sure how you could make alternate sombra dad work if I'm honest, admittedly it's been a while since I read that comic, but basically another mirror like the one from EQG existed and it went to a world where roles were reversedCelestia and Luna were tyrants, Discord was a scholar, and Sombra was basically a chad, Celestia and Good Sombra fell in love, but are literally a world apartif I remember correctly that comic ended with the alternate world being pseudo-assimilated to be more like the mainline universe, tyrant Celestia and Luna got turned good, but as a cosmic consequence to balance the scales, Chad Sombra got turned into his usual smoke monster selfnot sure how you'd make it work in a story and to be honest take what I've said with a grain of salt cause like I said it's been a while since I read the comic so I might have missed some finer details or just been fucking wrong entirely
>>42502589no clue then in that case, magic maybe if they cant literally bang? or she raped regular sombra kek
>>42502589Celestia's first visit to that world was way back when with Star Swirl, so by that logic, Anon would have been born way back. Before Luna's return or the main events of the show.However, that whole comic would have one hell of a new subplot when Celestia confesses to 'Other Sombra' about their child. Anon gets about... a day or two to get to know his father before the other world has to be sealed off permanently to stop it from spreading.
>>42502496>but im unfamiliar with the comicsLucky guyReally, keep it that way
>>42502589>>42503057You could go a step further and use it to explain Anon's unusual coloring and question cutiemark. As there is no 'alternative' Anon in the other world due to the very fact that Celestia was never supposed to cross over and get knocked up.Bluntly, Anon shouldn't exist. A part of his character could be him trying to figure out what exactly he is the Prince of. There is a lot you could do story wise for this. It could be the reason he's so opposed to being a prince.

You could use this as an idea as to why Anon is so opposed to being seen at or acting as a Prince, because even his own mother doesn't know what his cutiemark means. He's always been different from other stallions (due to his birth and previous life as a hairless ape)You could go any way you want with this, really.
DOES COMA ANON FUCK FLUTTERSHYI NEED TO KNOW
>>42503693Give him time. Surely he'll come around.
>>42493140God, I love guardsmares.
>>42500661YES! Finally a green on this gold
>>42503057This could be easily rectified by possible time distortions between both time lines. Perhaps Celestia hooked up with Sombra in his, and when she jumped back to her time line it is 1000-1500 years or so in the supposed 'future' basically putting it on the shows timeline.
>>42504050While jumping between mirrors is observed as only a few seconds. Both dimensions are a millennia or so apart.
>>42504050Maybe, like a lag? She was pregnant when she returned to her timeline but it took a hot minute for reality to catch up with it cause of time distortions
>>42504159That could work, especially with ponies believing she had gotten far from eating too much cake
>>42502589That comics make no sense lore wise. Ignore them 100%.
I like the time distortion idea, but I wonder, what's more interesting? An Anonicorn that's "recent" to the story, i.e. around the age of the mane 6 when Luna returns so she has a surprise nephew waiting for her? Anonicorn that's been around for a thousand years so Celestia isn't completely alone while Luna's banished?and all this considering, to what extent is he an Anonicorn? is he more Anon than alicorn, i.e. human soul shunted into what becomes Celestia's son? or is he more alicorn than Anon, and just the typical colour scheme and name?
>ongoing green about anon dating celestia >anons discussing potential green where celestia is anon’s mother
>>42504590
>>42504590The anon is a beast of many lives
>>42504548Him being around for a 1000 years would be new, though it might distance him greatly from the more familiar kind of anons we usually see. Would he end up taking Luna's place in that time gap? Looking all tall and flowt maned
>>42500661Pretty good short green
>>42504548I'd prefer a more recent anon. Having an older anon would make it more difficult to relate to, as well as potentially dull the story since anon would have seen and experienced a ton what to that point.
>>42504548very quick sketch>Anon finally gets to meet his favourite pony after dealing with the pastel puffs for a thousand years
>>42505714This is great lol
>>42505714>>42505714>"Prince Anon!" Twilight gasped, galloping over to her teacher>"Twilight." he said as she rushed over>He wasn't looking at her, practically dodging her to canter over to the spent form of Nightmare moon>She knew that the prince wasn't big on affection but still, she felt a little snubbed>Twilight watched in confusion as her teacher suddenly plopped down on his haunches to address the blue pony>"Holy. Fucking Shit." his words made the jaws of everypony in the ruined chamber fall open>The prince was the picture of calm, collected and regal>Not the type to curse>The prince leaned back and sighed deeply, in the moment it took his chest to rise and fall he seemed older, far older>Granted Prince anonymous was over a thousand years old yes but still, he suddenly looked alot more tired>then he started to speak. a lot.>"I've been waiting to meet you for a really, really long fucking time. we got ALOT to talk about, your sister is just straight up gone, no clue dont ask, i've spent a millennium babysitting these pastel puffballs genuinely dont think slept for a century-">He just....carried on ranting and chattering to the increasingly uncomfortable and frightened looking filly before him. >Twilight's brain was breaking >the prince never said much, the most he said was in court or to her during lessons and classes and even then it was to the point >the more he talked the worse it got. Nightmare moon was a princess, she had a sister, prince anon didn't like ruling ponykind, he liked to swear, really liked to swear, she , this luna was his favourite pony>the emerald alicorn had evidently hit his breaking point on seeing the blue alicorn>his 'favourite pony' apparently.>now THAT stung, she was his star pupil but not his favourite?
>>42505914Interesting that Sunbutt's just up and gone. Where'd that come from?
>>42505714Love the sketch, but i just don't think Anonicorn would work in a story, he would be to much of a Mary Sue type.
>>42505914Wonder if Prince alicorn anon will flirt and seduce with young princess Luna right there?!

>>42505995i can try to write more anon, i have some ideas i can squeeze out my great matter
>>42505914Makes me wonder how an Equestria under anon fared over the past 1000 or so years, and if he did things differently, what would change?
>>42506107Smaller borders, worse relations with neighbours, more militarised, alot more delegation to relieve him from the workload, cadence was instantly adopted and groomed to take the role of full on diarch next to him to help out and improve his public image, encouraged sunset shimmer to study technology in the other world to benefit equestria, at least kept precise track of dangerous artifacts and monsters ready for the future.

>>42506019It's kino,
>>42506019Its a good start, but please make Anon less of an asshole.
>>42505944You could probably make it work, a mary sue is just overly powerful and beloved off the bat right? have anon be anything but that
>>42505944>>42505944Anonicorn would work for more of slice of life sort of greens/paste like this one https://ponepaste.org/10663
Edited a pic I made for another thread to be anonstallion, hes a knight now
>>42507713Good style. It fits.
>>42507713What a stud!
>>42507713He's actually a janitor mopping the floor, but that's what he likes to imagine himself as. The whitest of knights, doing it for M'lady.
>>42507829Banishing the enemies of the kingdom. (dust bunnies.)
>>42506106Please do, I'll be waiting.
>>42507830>Anon is Equestria's Mr. CleanI dig it.
Any pastes where anon stallion remains a confederacy of dunces tier loser?
>>42510461Doesn't seem to be any yet if I presume you're talking in terms of a paste where Anonstallion is a asshole NEET and generally rude to other ponies. Closest I know is anoncolt one where he is rude but the mane 6 during the fimfic corrects him during one of the mane 6's scene.
>>42510485Damn, I just want anon stallion to be the unrepentant contrarian dick he was meant to be.
>>42510584Why though? Equestria is meant to be better.
>>42510663And he's meant to be worse. Like a sinner who snuck into paradise
I did have this one idea about Anon being a janitor at the castle.It all starts after an airship crash. Anon is the sole survivor. He's pulled out of the wreckage barely conscious and wakes up in a hospital some time later, feeling a little bit off.While he was out, the ponies figured out he was not on the passenger list, nor are there any records of a pony with his name or identifying features anywhere.He walks and talks like a pony, can't remember ever being anything but a pony, yet still can't help feeling a little off. That, and he keeps swiping at things with his hooves and knocking them off, somehow expecting the item to stick but of course it doesn't.So he's a weirdo and a bit creepy, but really not a bad pony. The knocking things off is written off as minor brain damage. Nopony ever figures out how he came to be on the airship. All that put together is enough that he can't get a job, no matter how hard he tries.Until the princesses themselves step in. He ends up hired as a janitor in the castle, very much as a diversity hire due to his brain damage diagnosis. There, he feels a bit useless since the other ponies are much better at what they do but he manages.And I dunno where to take it from there so I never did anything with it.
>>42510689>And I dunno where to take it from thereI suggest plotting down what sort of things you want to happen during the story up to the finale/ending of said idea. Since it'll likely the ending of said idea/story will be that he recovers and finds out what truly happened (or not) perhaps he sneaked onto the airship. Could have it during each plot point/scenario when Anon is doing his job perhaps discovering a changeling that is infiltrating the castle and him trying to tell other ponies about it but since the crash and the presumably that he could be making stuff up with his amnesia it gets more tense as the infitration becomes more successful until a sudden point where he finally exposes it and the ponies get surprised and get more curious about him. Could also have points of slow memory recovery where he slowly pieces the things together. Also maybe have a part where he tries to upgrade his job to a Royal Guard. Lots of potential, really.
>>42510702I could turn it into something, but my ongoing story along with the one I'm planning after it will take at least two years.
>>42510709Ahh I see, talking about story I wonder how all of the writechads are doing right now. Hope they're all good and in fine health.
>>42507713It's looking good on him.
Need more Sunn
>>42510584>>42510672That's how a lot of AiE greens are written. I guess you can write Anon however you want, he's just usually depicted here as a pretty mild guy.
>>42513097I think most people don't like to see him stirring up some real shit in Equestria.
how do you guys feel when a fic goes off into its own canon so to speak? like making up lore, saying shit like the show didn't capture the full reality and such
>>42513279I don't really mind if a green/paste/fic makes own canon and doesn't exactly follow how the show goes, since usually all stories are alternate universe like The Long and Short of It with new stuff the show doesn't have to keep readers intrigued. I suppose if the story is trying to have it as "what if Anonstallion was in the show at the beginning" then I'd be mildly miffed if stuff starts to contradict what happens on the show unless Anonstallion does something to alter it slightly.
>"Yes your highness she has your exact cutie mark!">"Neat, this her twilight?">"Yes sir!">The prince doesn't curse. especially not at children.>She must have misheard, surely.
>>42513341>Anonicorn meets anonmare>Anonicorn knows>Anonmare knows he knows>Anonicorn laughs>Anonmare seethes and once again considers suicide
>>42513341lol, ponies would defently get confused and think that anonfilly/mare is Anonicorn's daughter
>>42513341>"Go fuck yourself." >"HA." he snorts>"Fuck me I've missed this, You'd think Tirek would at least be able to cope with human humour but he just sulks in his cage when I visit him. You make one dead baby joke...">He kneels down, on those disgusting giant legs.>"Its been... a thousand or so years for me, no clue how or why before you ask, and honestly most of it was a blur." >Anon gives a pensive look at Anonfilly, smirking the whole time which only serves to piss her off more.>"Where the fuck is sunbutt?">"No clue!" he declares. >Twilight is sat on her haunches meekly watching the scene play out. >Her beloved teacher and Prince has never once spoke this crass or so open with another pony, not even her.>Who in his name was this filly?>"I looked for her for a long ass time, she just up and vanished after banishing Luna, i got here about a week or so after Luna got zapped." he adjusts his wings as he sits, vile. hes become accustomed to that gross body.>"So what, you've been in charge for the past millenium?" Anonfilly asks, incredulous. this was just getting worse.>He grins. >"Yup. A real gary stu.">She frowns harder, somehow.>"Oh don't scowl, its too cute on you Anon.">"Fuck you.">"Don't sweat, I was hands-off with everything for awhile, copied everything sunbutt did. As best I can mind you, I think sunset got upset with me for a different reason though and god, Luna was very unhappy to see me after Twiggle and co rainbow-blasted her."
>>42513399I am super curious as to where Celestia went. I assume Luna once strong enough from the rainbow bath is going to go look for her while Prince Anon holds down the fort.
>>42513449Honestly anon I never write a green with a plot in mind, i wrote a luna meets anonicorn one earlier in the thread, its just how i imagine the art scenes would play out
>>42513360>Anonicorn knows>Anonmare knows he knowsThat's the best part about it.
>>42513341So perfect, love it.
>>42515035Aww so cute seeing nyx cuddle up with anon like that unless she has a crush on him.
>>42515035Super adorable and lovely!
>>42515035Makes my heart warm, love it.
>>42515035Since most anons hate nyx, this is a tsundere colt.
>>42517673Most Anons don't mind Nyx anymore these days.
>>42511490I'm fine and will get back to writing immediately after I get back from Mare Fair. I really hate leaving you hanging this long, but the panel prep is taking a lot more time than I thought.
>>42517673I never got where the Nyx hate came from, other than the infamous Nyxfag back in the day.
>>42518651Very good to hear, thanks for the update!>>42518766The hate for the Nyxfag spread onto Nyx in general which is why unfortunately.
>>42519104Could be why Nyx isn't so hated anymore, now that Nyxfag has been gone for years.
>>42519622Yeah, I saw a Nyx thread recently and It was quite all normal and fine so it's all good now
>>42506128>Smaller borders, worse relations with neighbours, more militarised, alot more delegation to relieve him from the workload, cadence was instantly adopted and groomed to take the role of full on diarch next to him to help out and improve his public image, I mostly agree with this, but I want to say relations wouldn't necessarily be worse, just different. Celestia was well meaning but didn't always seem to get non-ponies? I feel like Anoncorn's blunt behavior and originally non-pony mind would ironically make the more aggressive races like the Griffins or Yaks easier to handle because he could understand them better. >encouraged sunset shimmer to study technology in the other world to benefit equestria, at least kept precise track of dangerous artifacts and monsters ready for the future.kek I could imagine Sunset going way differently>Sunset:"I deserve to be an Alicorn!">Anon:"Holy shit yes, I really need someone to split this workload with and Cadance is terrible with the paperwork.">Sunset:"You keep holding me ba- wait really?!">Anon:"Yeah no joke, figure something out and I'll put a crown on you.">Sunset:"huh, that was easy... wait what was that about paperwork?">Anon:"No take backsies."But yeah Cadance would probably be doing a lot more in Anon's Equestria.
>>42519869>sunset ran away anyway because a long discussion with Anoncorn made her realize being an Alicorn is basically just centuries of neverending work and babysitting an entire nation.
>>42519869I just see Anon's reign as more violent, slightly, than celestia's since i dont see him having anywhere near the level of diplomatic talent she must have had. maybe that leads to more respect to Equestria in general from anon being way more willing to throw hands when creatures start breaking shit and causing him more paperwork. Whether he massively changes things though, no clue, maybe he keeps sunset around or sends twilight to ponyville earlier
>>42519869>"Prince Anon!, I've had it!">"You let that pink airhead do half your work and she can't even move the sun like you can, I could do so much more, make me an Alicorn!">The Prince had that same expression on his face again.>One sunset despised.>A blank look like he wasn't even awake, just nodding along and operating on autopilot.>"Well?! Yes or No?!" she snapped.>He blinked and looked at her fully, eyes actually focusing on her for the first time since she burst in."Huh?>He rubbed at his chin in thought before closing his eyes and nodding, mumbling to himself."Yeah... good PR, avoids barbieworld happening.. cadence can officiate. Yes sunset, I will marry you.>Sunset suddenly felt the sun rise on her cheeks.>He really wasn't paying attention to her.>Again.
>>42515035Cute.
>>42520108>Yak's smash up his castle before their meeting>Anon levitates them and smashes them into the walls then catapults them back to Yakyakistan>They already broke his stuff, more damage is just irrelevant at this point>Yaks get the hint and be more respectful during the next meeting>Griffons keep asking for bits>He checks Equestrian economic records>Luna and Celestia dealt with the Griffons before he arrived>They already leant them bits>Which they haven't paid back>The griffon scoffs, says Celestia let it slide then demands the money>Anon takes everything of value, which isn't much, to pay off their debt>Their nest make good timber for the winter>He meets Dragon Lord Torch>The dragons have heard of a new pony ruler who isn't as soft as Celestia>But he only dealt with creatures his own size>Torch is the size of a mountain>Anonicorn clicks his neck when Torch makes one threat to many to his nation>Summons a hand as big as Torch and smacks one of the fangs out of his mouth>It's now on his mantle and he and Torch meet up once a month to blow off steam from both of them having to deal with ruling different kinds of idiots
>>42520133Twilight and Sunset definitely see Celestia as a mother figure, and it makes me wonder how that manifests in this AU. Do you think Sunset's big tantrum would be less about actually becoming an Alicorn and more about finally getting her not!dad's attention?I also gotta wonder how Twilight's autism would mesh with Anon's own brand of autism.
>>42520288this has potential, i like anon using telekinesis for everything, maybe his actual magical power isn't great so he just got really good at hitting things with other things.>>42520300 it'd depend on how anon treats them and teaches them it could really go in alot of ways from they detest him, view him as dad or lust after him, we should brainstorm a personality for prince anon
>>42520288>Griffons keep asking for bitsheh lol
>>42520288>>It's now on his mantle and he and Torch meet up once a month to blow off steam from both of them having to deal with ruling different kinds of idiotsIts so nice of the prince to do monthly diplomatic visits to the dragonlands. i dont get why so many dragons are scared of green ponies now though
>>42520379>it'd depend on how anon treats them and teaches them it could really go in alot of ways from they detest him, view him as dad or lust after him, we should brainstorm a personality for prince anonI'd want to say literal centuries have chilled him down a lot. He can still be the cuss filled asshole he can be, but mostly reserves that for people he knows can handle that kind of talk, like the Griffins or the older Dragons.With the regular ponies, ge generally tries to emulate Celestia, or at least a more paternal form of it, because they respond to that way better than anything else he's tried. Probably way less patient with species like the Deer or the Kirin, in the sense their in his borders so they can be tax paying citizens or get out. I could see the Kirin be ok with this for the most part, and probably have the Deer traditionally afraid of him because they pushed Anon once generations ago and he made good on his promise of violence.Maybe rather than keeping him fully statued up, he bounds Discord's consciousness in a sorta familiar/wisp form to have someone to talk to and bounce ideas off of since Cadance would be around for a long time and having an eternity to yourself can be lonely. He's both better and worse for his students than Celestia was. He's not the ever loving maternal figure and can be blunt in assessment, but he's been able to call out and curb their worst flaws without alienating them about it. Like having Sunset understand that being an Alicorn isn't all it's cracked up to be, and teaching Twilight to take deep breaths and calm down when she's about to go in an OCD freakout.He aggressively hits on Chrysalis whenever she pops up, and ironically she can't handle it well at all. After all her thing is sucking up love not lust, and she's not even sure what he means by big pussy since she lays eggs.
>>42521708these are just things I wrote down as they popped in my head, so feel free to shutbon any of it.
>>42520593More like demanding bits.
>>42521708>I'd want to say literal centuries have chilled him down a lot. He can still be the cuss filled asshole he can be, but mostly reserves that for people he knows can handle that kind of talk, like the Griffins or the older Dragons.As opposed to the young version of Anon raised by Celestia, who'd be way closer to what you expect of a regular anon in personality. Probably giving Twilight and Blueblood an aneurysm on the daily, making Cadance exasperated, and leaving Luna scandalized with his potty mouth. >Celestia tries to be strict about her son's behavior, but frankly he's made her life way more fun with his antics.
>>42521708>spoilerKEK, having Chrysalis be afraid of Anonicorn only because he's horny for her is hilarious, reminds me of Pepe le Pew.>"You /fools/ have fallen right into my trap! Now, tremble before-""Yo Chryssy, is that you, baby?!">"Oh no-""Damn filly, you lookin' fine~">"GET ME OUT OF HERE!"
>>42522315"Babe why don't you ever hit me up, you know I'd give you plenty of 'love'~">"It doesn't work like that and you know it!'>the other elements staring at Twilight in question >She shrugs helplessly>"I swear he's never been like this around any other mare, he's usually a gentlecolt!">Inb4 at a certain point in time, long before canon start, Anon genuinely couldn't help seeing the ponies around him as basically children and can't bring himself to look at them that way.
>>42521708>Maybe rather than keeping him fully statued up, he bounds Discord's consciousness in a sorta familiar/wisp form>"HEY! LISTEN! HEY! ANON! LISTEN!"Prince Anon with Discord Navi has a lot of potential>Discord starts with his usual style, puns>They fall flat now that he doesn't have his god magic to make the things that push the punchline appear out of thin air>Then gives Anon "the cold shoulder">Still doesn't work cause no ice>Then Discord tries manipulations>However Anon is already far more violent than Celestia ever was to his neighbors and just ever so slightly more stern, with his ponies>Which makes it kind of boring>Discord also quickly realizes that Anon installed a mute button on him>So he can either play along or go back to wanting to scream but having no mouth>He chooses the former>After a few decades, Discord actually mellows out some>He's able to actually give Anon solid advice>But he always wraps it up in so much metaphor that figuring it out is like playing with russian nesting dolls>As centuries pass, by the time he's let out of his stone prison, he still causes havoc, but it's mostly just to stretch his legs and magic>When Twilight comes to him freaking out, he tells her and her friends to chill out and enjoy the chaos for a day>The most confusing part to Twilight is when he said "If it's all still there tomorrow, then you can deal with him">Sure enough, by the next day, everything's back to normal>Twilight visits Anon again and he's in a meeting with Discord, discussing terms for when, where and how much of his chaos he's allowed to spread before Anon sicks the Elements on him and makes him a pigeon outhouse again>Twilight doesn't always understand her teacher>But she does always have confidence that he wants what's best for Equestria
>>42521547>i dont get why so many dragons are scared of green ponies now though>with how little dragons know about ponies, misinformation is common>as Ember showed, they also have difficulty differentiating ponies>after Anonicorn manhandles (ponyhandles? dragonhandles?) Torch they all worry about getting on his bad side>as a side effect, they also think he's related to every green pony>either cousins, kids, or some other relation>the strangest stories start cropping up about dragon/pony encounters>it would usually go with ponies getting away having anything of calue stolen and their mane, tail or fur scorched>now there's an occasional story of dragons slowly backing away before flying away>nopony can figure out why though>except Anon after doing some digging>all the ponies who the dragons avoided, were either themselves green, or in a group with a green pony
>>42522964Seems like green ponies are going secure any security jobs thanks to this, loving the lore!
>>42521708I love this anon great work, heres some of my ideas>Prince Anon isn't distractible persay, but he does slip into autopilot alot>its his way of coping with being so long-lived, when nothing or no one of interest is around his mind just rests, its the compromise between human mind and alicorn longevity >He has discord bound to a cat since cats are the most chaotic creatures >Anon is overpowered by the likes of sunset and twilight in terms of raw power, he can raise the sun/moon sure but he delegated the chore of that to discord >discord does it since its the only thing hes allowed to do in familiar form directly, he makes day and night happen or he goes back in the statue >As a teacher anon is pretty regimented, his lessons have a well defined curriculum with lots of gaps for self-guided research or outlined objectives to complete. this both gives his students the chance to learn directly under him and pursue their interests while supported.>the real reason for this is so anon knows whats happening, can keep up with his students better, learn as they do and then get breaks from teaching for extended periods >Anon's been around long enough to understand the theories and functions of magic but his innate power is on par with cadence's at best, what he does know how to use though hes gotten quite good at, creative use of his power is what gives him his edge >Anon knows the show, knowing events that have/will happen bother him since he has no idea if he should act on them or not>non-ponies like chrysalis or rain shine are preferred targets of his rarely seen spaghetti>anon and dragon lord torch don't talk during their meetings, they fight, its led to an association with where ponies with green coats are avoided by dragons in case its the prince in disguise, the prince himself or a relative>the fights are friendly if destructive >granny smith would be highly respected in the dragonlands and theres an old rumour the apples are related to the prince since quite a few of them have green coats or manes >anon keeps trying to trick chrysalis into sharing love just to see how pissed she'll get after transforming into a nu-changeling
>>42523397>>theres an old rumour the apples are related to the prince since quite a few of them have green coats or manes>Its not true, granny smith knows it, but invites the prince to the apple family reunions anyway>she figures it must be lonely being the stallion in charge>she always smiles when a new 'distant cousin' shows up, he never changes the eyes and she caught on to him awhile ago
>>42522937I'm like half sure that, after getting the full story more or less and realizing that Anon kinda softened Discord's imprisonment and slowly befriended the spirit of Chaos over the course of centuries, would reaffirm Twilight's complete confidence in her teacher. Like yeah he can end up doing weird shit or can have a temper, but he still has ways of leaving her starstruck. I mean, if getting Discord of all beings to chill out isn't a sign of Prince Anon's mastery of Harmony and Friendship, then nothing is right?
I hope the Prince's meeting in the dragon lands is going well.>
>>42523429>Inb4 Anon and Granny Smith have known each other since she was a filly, because he visited Ponyville once or twice out of curiosity, what with being the main setting of what will be future canon chicanery.>>42523397>Anon's been around long enough to understand the theories and functions of magic but his innate power is on par with cadence's at best, what he does know how to use though hes gotten quite good at, creative use of his power is what gives him his edge>Anoncorn had a phase really early on where, once he had mastered magical theory and polished his skills over the course of a couple centuries, he went full power scale stupid.>Developed spells like telefragging, speeding up his reflexes and perception to Flash lite levels, aimbotting for his lasers, summoning clouds that rain napalm, etc etc. >After another century as an Alicorn, Anon ends up permanently shelving basically all his spells of that nature because he started finding it all really edgy.>he's honestly pretty embarrassed by them. He's never really faced a threat that actually required them and they just feel too tryhard to bother with. I'd have to think of how to introduce this tidbit in the modern day though. Maybe Twilight finding an ancient forbidden spell book that actually ends up being Anon's old journal he workshopped his old spells on, and is really fucking embarrassed that Twilight found it.
>>42523471The spooky forbidden >dark-magic section of the Royal Archives is actually just full of cringy fanfics and bad drawings.
>>42523633>"You figured out how to fold a finite amount of space in on itself to an exponentially increasing scale, while keeping it contained to a mana cage that self-sustains itself on the ever increasing thermal output, while overlaying it with a negative feedback loop failsafe to dissipate any ambient after effects if it got out of control!

She spat some green stuff at me and told me i was a disgusting, impish beast in a crown. Gosh. I want her, is that bad? no one has spoken harsh to me like that since I got here, not since star swirl but his beard didn't exactly spark the imagination like her fangs did. Would it change things too much? No, she wouldn't like me back, she'd transform if she did and I doubt she'd look as nice sharing love as she does stealing it. sigh.'>The prince had a...crush. on somepony.a 'xenomorph queen'>What was a xenomorph?>Who was this pony he had a crush on? why did she have fangs? what in Equestria is a Disney?>You aren't sure if Prince Anon liked this pony or not even after re-reading the entry a few times, she sounded very mean but the prince liked that?>...Maybe you'd be better off reading other entries to understand the Stallion.

>>42521708>Tries to emulate CelestiaI think Anonicorn, even after centuries of rule, would still keep his Anonisms and basic personality, just more refined. Where Celestia is seen as the gentle mother of Equestria, Anonicorn is the stern, direct but ultimately fair father.>TwilightAnonicorn - if we see him as a fan of the show in a horse costume displaced centuries before Season 1 - would probably devise several plans to ensure that none of the latter-season travesties ever occur in this Equestria.>spoilerChrysalis has an instinctual revulsion towards Anon like a cockroach.>"And then Equestria shall turn into food for m-eep!">Chrysalis freezes>A shiver flows through her body>That accursed feeling on her carapace>She doesn't have to look at it to know what it is>That strange five-clawed magical appendage can only be the work of->A burst of magic poofs behind her>She flinches>Hooves clip-clop up to her side>Her bottom lip trembles>Chrysalis feels his breath on her nape>She whimpers and closes her eyes, leaning away>She can sense him close the gapBug.

>>42524526>spoilerUnderstandable, haha.
>Chrysalis somehow triggers anon's monkey brainI can see it
>>42524492Perhaps, or perhaps breasts?
>>42524283You did a good job with this, anon
>>42524944certainly triggers mine
>>42524944In a sea of super friendly, pastel colored ponies that worship the ground he walks on, Anon just really wants a bad bitch who will say mean things to him. >Constantly and aggressively flirting with Chrysalis >Constantly flirting with an annoyed Luna when she finally pops upI rest my case. Cadance has her work cut out for her.
>>42525033>Flirting with LunaI think it’d be funnier if neither of them were even remotely interested in each other despite having what is practically the entire country BEGGING for them to get it on and start a dynasty or what have you
>>42525078Plus I think she’d probably be scared shitless of him. Would probably be convinced that he killed her sister to take power for a good while
>>42525009Truly, Chrysalis is the closest to a human female you can get in Equestria.
>>42525093Why would anyone want that in Equestria though?
>>42525193a few centuries leads to twisted tastes I guess. I wouldn't be surprised if Anon actually had a secret wife or two over the centuries but eventually just stopped seeing ponies like that all together after losing his loves to time and seeing his citizens more and more like the way a dad would his kids. That said, maybe he still had his eyes on a few women that were fair game in his eyes. There was Bug Pussy, but also maybe the occasional pretty enough dragon or griffin. Hell maybe he's hit up Rain shine a few times.
>>42523692>>You can't tell if she's more impressed or pissed>>This unicorn has an extreme thirst>>You're just thankful it's a thirst for knowledge>>You don't need a repeat of Sunset>In Anoncorn's Equestria, Sunset ran off because she was rejected by her teacher.>Wants to become an Alicorn partially for revenge, partially to make her teacher acknowledge her as more than just a student or friend....that has potential
>>42525193Because he's human in his mind where deep inside it appeals to his primal nature.
>>42525193I'd say since he's spent such a very long time in Equestria as a Alicorn he slowly started wanting to experience some things that feel like his original homelan, not out of love but the need to have something that reminds him of before Equestria since I'd imagine 1000 years could make him forget.
>>42525434>It reminds me of home Twilight, of simpler times>The love-sucking queen of changelings whose heart is pure malice and hates you reminds you of home?>...yes?
>>42525318>Hell maybe he's hit up Rain shine a few timesPlease don't talk about my adoptive kirin mom like that.
>>42525737Sorry man, but your adoptive kirin mom has got it going on >>42525655>Twilight just nuzzles against her mentor, her face buried in his tuft"... Twilight are you crying?">"N- no..."
>>42524283Fantastic love Cadence being a snoop. I can already imagine how her adult form would use this information to constantly try and find anon true love.
>>42524526I genuinely love the idea that Chrysalis gets the straight up uncanny valley when anon and his human soul are around her. Like she feels he is unsettling and not of 'this' natural world, but simply can't place it giving her the creeps like a skinwalker.
>>42526135To add on to this I can also see her feeling the raw wanton violence anon is capable of just by a mere glance at his eyes. Like she doesn't feel any direct emotions, just that at any moment he could conduct the most brutal torture or murder he could possibly conceive of, and find time to gingerly sip on tea and giggle about jokes the following afternoon. Honestly the idea of a slightly schizo Chrysalis feeling the weight of the world on her shoulders, like she is the only enlightened one of the true villainy of anonicorn, and must stop him at all costs would make an excellent green. Especially if all the while anon continually tries to flirt with her as she views each exchange as a life or death battle of every race on the planet.
>>42526167You'd think Chrysalis out of everyone would appreciate the predatory glint in his eye.
>>42526213I'd like to imagine that a race from mlp sees the truly predatory glint from a former human. whether that be greed, violence or conquest. Like when she sates into his eyes, all she sees is an insatiable hunger from a, eldritch entity poorly masked by an emotion of empathy.
>>42526167>>42526135Personally I find that Anon is just kinda sleezy around her and she's put off by it because she's trying to eat love, not satisfy some stallion's xenophilia, but that's just me. "Honestly babe, you keep saying no, but you keep coming back. Just admit you want me~">"For the- I'M JUST TRYING TO BE EVIL AND TAKE OVER THE KINGDOM AS MY ETERNAL FOOD SOURCE, STOP LOOKING FOR THINGS THAT AREN'T THERE!""Pfft uh-huh sure, you just decided to hijack a wedding you knew I'd be at *just* to take over the kingdom and parasitize pony kind?">"YES!">Anon just shakes his head, looking to the side with a smug look, giving her a 'what can you do gesture'"Mares, am I right, my student?">"I- sure? Your highness, I thought you defeated the Changeling Queen centuries ago?""Oh I did, scared her right off. But like I said, she keeps coming back, for obvious reasons~.">Chrysalis cuts in>"FOR FOOD, SUSTENANCE! AMBITIOUS CONQUEST! NOT- NOT TO HOOK UP WITH YOU, YOU PERVERTED PONY!'>Anon just rolls his eyes, still smirking "suuuuure">"REEEEEEEEEEEEEH!"pic semi related
>>42526240The idea that Chrysalis is lonely and after countless centuries of dealing with anon just says fuck it and moves in with him still fully hating everything about him would make for an excellent sitcom
>>42513097Plainly put, having him be just that bad and never improve would both make for a fairly dull story not long into it and not many would stick around for even that long
What is Anonicorn's autistic food focus? Garlic bread?
>>42526254He eats an entire plate full and wonders why the griffons keep turning their heads way during a delegation
>>42526254Spaghetti is really easy, but with Garlic Bread I could see Anon loving Italian food and pasta in general. Maybe him and Cadance end up having a pizza night once they're a lot more comfortable with each other. Little Twilight and Spike start taking part when they join the castle too. >Fast forward, Luna starts taking part when she's released from the Moon and has had time to adjust. >Fast forward even more to Cadance getting married and moving out and she still attends every pizza night with Anon, but now she teleports in with her husband and child. Twilight also starts teleporting in with her friends too, and it turns into a weekly big family dinner.
>>42526254steak tartare
>>42526266That is straight wholesome. Anon with a surrogate family. I cab already picture them all jokingly singing along to that's Amore
>>42526254CoffeeIts the only reason he bothered with saddle Arabia
>>42526254Instant noodles. Lots and lots of instant noodles.
>>42526281I've been thinking of anon taking in cadence as a full daughter, but cadence started calling him dad, anon didnt call himself anything cadence made her own conclusion
>>42526235>Anonicorn still has the innate human desire to impose "manifest destiny" on the world around him>He knows what his ponies are capable of>He knows what other races are capable of>Most importantly, he knows what he's capable of>If he wanted, he could kick start an industrial revolution with a word>Working in tandem with magic, he could avoid the errors of his predecessors>No climate change slowly killing the planet>None of the radiation, all of the fun>He could sweep over every country and name himself God King of the planet>He could take it even further>Why stop at this planet, if Luna can survive on the moon, then magic to survive in space is possible>Ponies meet 40K>It's not just something he can imagine>It's something he could make happen>The thoughts in his mind only kept in check by the thin veneer that are his eyes>He knows what he can do>But then he sees his little ponies>And they have become His little ponies>He could offer them the entire planet, and all the stars in the sky>But they're happy just having food on the table, a roof overhead, a friend beside them, and him>He, is enough for them>So he's wallows in the contentedness of simplicity>But that humanity never dies>It merely becomes an eternal candle flame>Waiting for its chance to set the forest on fire>And Chrysalis sees all this, in an instant>One moment, she's monologuing>But one split second of eye contact kills the voice in her throat>And she realizes why no other, seemingly stronger species, has ever so much as bothered Equestria>And then she realizes that she's the first one in centuries, maybe a millenia to threaten this THING'S ponies>She only hopes she'll survive this mistake>Hfw after all that, he starts flirting with her
>>42526240"Baby, you and me ain't nothin' but mammals-">"I AM AN INSECTOID QUEEN!""....that's hot"
>>42526379Anon only wants a wife that he can share eternity with. Initially he planned on grooming Cadence to become that wife, but after watching her grow, and witnessing her trials and tribulations to adulthood, could no longer view her in any light beyond being his daughter. Chrisy on the other hand acts like the spite fueled exes of his past which strangely excite him in a life of immortality.
>>42526249>the end of the series>but instead of just turning them to stone, the villain trio are all given different punishments>Cozy has a century of in-school suspension to work off while being schooled on Harmony and Friendship basically religiously >She's basically an Alicorn, and Anon will be damned if the little psycho can get out of the next few centuries of paperwork reserved for her just because she wants to be a villain.>All Alicorns have to serve the Kingdom, end of story. >Tirek is permanently deppwered with a couple dozen magic inhibitors put inside him by Discord at Anon's request. Forced to play nice in a well guarded retirement home to live the rest of his days in. >Without his ability to steal magic to artificially lengthen his lifespan, it's as simple as letting time and his own failures do their job to ending his threat to Equestria.>He has plenty of opportunities to redeem himself now that he's been out in the position he's in, but regardless of what he chooses, Tirek's long career of villainy will end with a whimper, tapioca and adult diapers part of his new reality.>Chrysalis is given the worst punishment of all >She has to live in the castle with Anon. >He doesn't force her to do anything untoward, and she doesn't actually have any responsibilities or chores pushed on her>but the constant flirting and innuendo has Chrysalis wish Twilight just made her a statue to save her the humiliation of being constantly hit on by what she sees as a prey animal and can't do anything about.>It is a huge hit to her ego and pride, which she sees as the utmost important things. >After everything, all the things she's sacrificed in the name of her ego and stubbornness, this might just be the thing that has Chrysalis break and accept trying reformation if it gets her away from the green menace and his *shudder* mammal genitalia.

And he already has Cozy Glow set up with everything needed to break her and mold her into a true asset for the Kingdom >Sasuga Anoncorn-sama, he is truly a grandmaster of Friendship.>Anon is just bummed>He really wanted to get some evil woman bug pussy
>Cadence humming one of the songs from Anon' journal
>>42525318Anon having a secret wife has alot of angst potential, either he loved her genuinely and had to watch her die without him or he had to end it with her denying himself love because he wasnt willing to watch someone he loved and their children die while he lived on
We need a name for this alicorn instance of anon, regent anon?Would he have his own nightmare/daybreaker form that he turned into or almost turned into once?
>>42526763Anon's 'dark mode would be him becoming even more anti social and locking himself in his room. He would also use a lot more slurs.
>>42526763>We need a name for this alicorn instance of anon, regent anon?His full name and title would probably Prince Anonymous, though I could see him dropping the prince bit and just outright calling himself King Anonymous. Maybe King Anonymous Agat if you wanted something a bit more, but regardless he generally has the ponies he interacts on a daily basis, like his students or personal stewards, with just call him King Anon. He'd be fine with just Anon, but let's them call him King Anon as a compromise.>Would he have his own nightmare/daybreaker form that he turned into or almost turned into once?Fagat Feathers, and it's just Anon without the filter he's developed over the centuries as the ruler of a bunch of really sensitive citizens.
>>42526763How about PRanon? Prince-regent or just merged prince and anon for the sake of archiving our stories
>>42526795Honestly if it's just for the sake of tags, Anoncorn would suffice
>>42526821Ponepaste as Anonicorn as a tag which sounds a bit better than without the I in the middle.
working on a design for anonicorn
>>42528063Neat!
>>42528063I love it, very nice art-style as well!
>>42526129>>42525000thanks dudes, I don't write much and I'd like to change that
>>42525078>>42525088I can see Luna going full vegeta levels of pissed at him thinking Anon murdered Celestia to take the throne, shes actually more powerful than he is and it takes alot from anon to survive the fight.[/spoiler] this excites the anon
>>42528063It's looking good so far. If you're doing regalia pieces like Celestia's tiara neck piece and bootie things, I'd try to have them in colors that better fit Anon's coat color. I'd probably look at both Shining Armor and Sombra's armor pieces to get an idea for a good regalia design for stallions.
>>42528671You read my mind anon, sombra has been an armor reference and shining armour is a good call thanks.Im thinking something like sombras for his crown, yknow like how his conforms around his horn more rather than sitting behind it, For the colors ive narrowed it down to -silver-white -black like lunas-bronzey/brassy The black matches his mane and stands out on his coat, the same for white but it contrasts his mane and tail nicer imo, and the orangey colours of bronze stuff compliments green well and contrasts with black. Ill have to experiment and see.The peytral/neck piece is definitely having > symbols though kek
>>42528687I think brassy colours would look good, somehow represents his more grounded or less divine nature
>>42528687Experimenting is a good idea. Like the other anon, I'm thinking the bronze will end up looking the best, but maybe I'm wrong.
>>42528687Parroting the other two anons, think a light bronze or brass would fit nice with his former earth pony-ism (if that's what this anon used to be).
>>42528753This thread has been fun af, I'm glad I started drawing and spitballing in here, really enjoying making up all the different anonstallionsI want to write more stories too, fuck i should make a ponebin for my greens regardless of quality
Hello everyone! It's my first time posting in this thread and I'm coming with questions for a green that is starting to form inside my head.This would be a continuation based on an idea at the very end of Duties of the King https://ponepaste.org/10501Which was posted in Fingerbang.Please allow me to sum up the most salient points.1. Anon is dating, with intent to marry, the entire HuMane seven.2. Due to wacky adventures and fights with supervillains, Anon retreats to Equestria for a week with his harem and confirms that he is an Alicorn while there.3. Anon is worried that Celestia might not let him go as Alicorns are so very valuable to Equestria. So he proposes a plan where he will encourage his kids to explore over there and let them know they are welcome to settle there with their Alicorn genes, even if not an Alicorn themselves. (Celestia has no intention of detaining Anon but is very happy with his proposal.)4. Timeskip forward 19 years. The second child of each wife was a green boy and all are born in the same calendar year. Now it is time for their freshman year of High School.5. But Anonymous Jr. ("Junior", the son of Anon and Sunset) isn't going to CHS! No he is being sent to Equestria as an exchange student and Flurry Heart is being sent to Canterlot.So the story brewing would focus on the adventures of the scrawny Alicorn Junior and his new group of friends that want to be something more. (Probably no sex though. I'm not great with writing it with humans and would be completely lost with horses.)Has anything like that been done?And am I correct in thinking this would be the proper thread for it?
>>42529071>And am I correct in thinking this would be the proper thread for it?This isn't the EqG thread. This is a thread for Anonstallion which is a pony.
>>42529071To be honest I would love the story of the characters here to have romance and sex with each other.
>>42529074>This is a thread for Anonstallion which is a pony.I wholly agree!If I didn't make it clear, the lore is folks from EqG become ponies when they go through the portal. Junior is going through the portal, and so will be a pony during this story.A scrawny Alicorn as I said.Among the themes I'm considering is that the children of Anon and Sunset specifically are half Equestrian and this is a wonderful chance for one of them to finally explore that.>>42529109Romance I can do! I would basically handwave sex. You'll know it happened and possibly any significant reactions that resulted, but I won't point to the place on the doll where touching happened.
>>42528063So he's kind of between Luna and Celestia in size?
>>42529071desu we've never really done anything with the human stuff beyond bringing up Sunset Shimmer a few times, the point of the thread is about a pony anon as the focus and is generally always in Equestria.That said, if the premise is primarily focused on a pony Anon Jr in Equestria then I'd say it's fair game to post it here.
>>42528302Luna immediately ends up turning back into Nightmare Moon and swears to avenge her sister's 'death.' This just ends up turning Anon on as much as Chrysalis does.
>>42529227GTFO
>>42529227Sounds good to me thanks for the story bud
>>42529071I don't really see any issues here, so I'm fine with it
>>42529071Back to your own general, freak.
>>42529071>>42529227>EQG>Human>Harem>Sunset ShitterIm sorry, but this sounds just awful. Anything even remotely related to EQG is going to be a hard sale here.
>>42529428Sunset is fine, if she's in her pony form.
>>42529227Eqg stuff as a fanfic, sure.Imo it should be its own thing separate from the show. That, and Eqg tries to be "real life" which, in a more meta sense, is a role better left to this world. To me at least, that makes Equestria real and alive.
I feel like a thousand years old anon is way less relatable and human, maybe a century old instead? But then does it matter much if celly has been missing a full thousand or just a hundred years
>>42529986I think that Anoncorn doesn't necessarily need to be relatable in the same sense peganon or any of the other "regular" anon stallions are, as long as his character is understandable and you can follow his train of thought. That said, you could always do the latter Anoncorn idea where's he's just regular son of Celestia and gree up in the relatively modern era alongside Cadance, Sunset, Twilight, etc if you want a more relatable Anon. That was also a potential prompt for Anoncorn and just wasn't looked at nearly as much as the millennium old Anoncorn.
>>42526775>King>Not Princethis has potential, for Anon, it's as simple as "The ruler's of a Kingdom are Kings, that's why it's called a KINGdom. Prince and Princesses are the children of the rulers"for the ponies, it's a twofold show of him being different to Celestia and Luna, firstly, being Princesses, despite it still elevating them above other ponies, made them seem more grounded and humble, Anon being a King puts him above even that, secondly, it tells that he plans to rule with a firmer hoof, which is true, but he's as fair as the princesses ever werethen there's Chrysalis, she's a Queen, one of the only, and Anon would be the only King, before she meets him and is put off by his flirtations, she sees him as a potential rival before they even meet, two iron-hoofed rulers of their subjects, she sees their meeting as a destined clash between idealogoies, between titans and rulers, her fantasy of an epic bout are ended when he first nicnames her and implies having children at the wedding
>>42526763if we go by synonym for Anonymous, I vote for King Unsung, it's sort of poeticif we go by similar to Anonymous, but not necessarily synonimous, then I'd vote for something like Void King to play into the naming convention of Nightmare Moon and Daybreaker being darker, even more violent names of Luna and Celestia
>>42528687I vote that he has a cape like Sombra, he doesn't always wear it because it's hot in Canterlot, but it's something he wears in the winter to stay warmalso because capes are cool, fuck you Edna
>>42529986I feel like even after a thousand years, Anonicorn wouldn't change that much, he'd find his rhythm and sort of stick to it, and you could easily write a relatable Anonicorn and just handwave that he's been that way for a thousand years, it's not like it'd require a further suspension of disbelief than is required for an Anon that's become a ponylike I've seen in this thread, just make a Prince/King that's a slightly sterner ruler than Celestia, his fairness more coming from seeing ponies as stupid kids that frustrate him but he ultimately loves, rather than the warm care that Celestia feels, make him more hooves off with teaching because he'd have that human belief in learning by independence instead of holding Twilight's hoof through everything, and if you want him to still be human, have him be a little less patient than Celestia, not outright impatient but just willing to put up with less bullshit, also, you could make him actively go against what Celestia planned when Twilight comes around, so he goes to the Crystal Empire to help her deal with Sombra, he locks away Starswirl's book that let her ascend or outright burns it, he also burns Starswirl's time spell immediately, he deals with Tirek as soon as he hears that Cerberus left Tartarus, he keeps an eye on Glimglam's village from a distance and puts royal hoofboot to ass when she tries to spread it into Equestria properas for the centuty or millenia, that can add drama either way, if he's been ruling for a millenia, it adds to his mystique, especially if he's more isolated that Celestia, which I think an Anon would be, he's been around long enough that ponies know him, and done enough for them for them to love them, but there would be stories about sisters who ruled before him who disappeared, maybe ponies wouldn't even remember their names, since ponies in Season 1 didn't seem to remember Nightmare Moon/Luna anymoreif he'd only been around for a century, then there'd be a lot more drama about ponies being suspicious of him, he'd be around long enough that, for some ponies, he's the ruler of Equestria, but ponies like Granny Smith would be old enough to remember Celestia, but not know where she went when Anon appeared, there'd be conspiracies, possibly groups who actively try to undermine and oppose his rule, thinking him a usurperhim ruling for a century would fuel Luna's hatred of him, and might do like one Anon mentioned and have her go Nightmare Moon again, or at least actively wage a conflict against him, seeing him as her sister's murderer when he's just a schmuck who got left with a horn and wings, a longer lifespan than his brain can handle, and a nation of child-mindedly naive adorable ponies to look after so the rest of the world doesn't conquer themit would also add to his relationship to Cadance and Twilight, is he teaching them because he genuinely sees potential? or is it to solidify his rule? does he actually care? or is he merely pretending?
>>42526763>>42530018I'd say that Anonicorn's nightmare mode makes him embrace the cringey edgelord inside and he calls himself Dark Matter, because it's unknowable.>>42529986Centuries plural is probably a better compromise. It's enough time for the general populace to be used to his relative eccentricities and style of rule over Celestia's, far enough away from the main canon for him to be able to see the seeds of the families he has foreknowledge of grow and steer subtly enough in the right directions, and enough to be able to be a thorn in Chrysalis' side for her to dread him and his unwanted flirting.
>>42530021bronze/brass works imo, i like this shade. I will try a cape too but not sure that'd work with his wings.>>42530045>>42530054200 would good imo since it allows him time to build mystique, for the population to adjust to him but have some remain wary of him as a usurper who disrupted Celestia's peaceful reign. I'd say its a better time to land him that avoids him completely altering the timeline in massive ways like I feel a millennium old Anon could/wouldThis makes him easier to hate for Luna in particular. Equestria forgot about her over a millennium but Celestia ruled for 800 years only for ponies to forget her too, all because of this green usurper.Him appearing late can cause a whole bunch of shit to kick off, without Celestia's talent at diplomacy Anon has to be sterner/fiercer as a leader to keep Equestria's enemies away and hold the kingdom together.Without sunbutt theres a power vacuum, so he's viewed by enemies/neighbours as a weak replacement, a usurper and easier prey so he meets creatures like chrysalis earlier, becoming more aloof/isolated for his style of rule, old suspicion and needing to deal with more aggressive enemies jumping at the chance to go after a less stable equestrian.I'd say he does care, they looked to him to lead when Celestia vanished so he took over and took responsibility for ponies so they wouldn't suffer because of him not leading/being a bad leader but because of the other shit hes way more aloof/stoic as ruler. He does collect cadence, sunset, etc. trying to emulate Celestia and keep the timeline consistent but he warms up from their influence. speaking of timeline, I imagine him grappling with whether or not to change things as the time of the show creeps closer, worrying that hes fucked everything up by being here and having enemies like chrysalis show up earlier/needing or being more aggressive as a ruler.
>>42530278>speaking of timeline, I imagine him grappling with whether or not to change things as the time of the show creeps closer, worrying that hes fucked everything up by being here and having enemies like chrysalis show up earlier/needing or being more aggressive as a ruler.I'd assume he'd want to smooth out some things, like try to keep ponies like Sunset and Starlight Glimmer from crashing out, and keep an eye out in case long term stuff Opal to prevent G% from ever happening, but would mostly let things play out because things work out for the most part, and he'd probably be way too busy as is trying to run a kingdom properly. I'd imagine he'd welcome more Alicorns to split up the workload. Train up Cadance to rule with him, try to get Luna to chill and at least work with him, let Twilight's journey play out but actually have her join in running the kingdom when she ascends and not just dumping it in her to go on vacation. Do that one idea of lessening Discord's punishment into getting to basically be his Navi to bounce ideas off of a f get genuinely good advice from a different perspective, etc etc. Also the colors definitely look good, but I'm also definitely of the opinion the regalia should be less like Celestia's and more masculine like Sombra's, if less evil looking.
>>42530325I like your thinking anon>Also the colors definitely look good, but I'm also definitely of the opinion the regalia should be less like Celestia's and more masculine like Sombra's, if less evil looking.working on it rn, trying to balance his shoe thingies make them more armorish

>>42529231yes!
>>42530700The peytral's central jewel definitely needs to be the Yotsuba four-leaved clover.
>>42530754I suppose that's right.
>>42530325Our prince wouldn't be able to beat opaline, but that doesn't mean she'd get to fuck up his Equestria. If he couldn't win then neither of them leave the battlefield
>>42530700Lookin pretty good! Very awesome work on Anonicorn, drawchad!
>>42531021>OpalineDoesn't exist.
>>42531283thank god
>>42530278>>42530700Definitely prefer the second rendition of the regalia far more. Also I can honestly see anon rocking some reading glasses and a more practical hair style when in his study or in private. Also I think anon's chest piece should just keep the bare emerald look. Having a four-leak clover seems a little too much. Anon would 100% view himself as Goku although we all know he is Vegeta.
>>42531692>Anon looking into the mirror and using magic to style his hair like Goku, smiling, faking different auras with his magic. feeling cool, because hes a big stupid dork.Thank you btw, glad you enjoy it.
>>42530278>>42530477>>42530700These pics are looking really good! They're also hyping me up for this green.
>>42531021Anoncorn would absolutely no-sell Opaline. He's the legendary anonymous stallion.
Are there any stories and/or greens where Anon has to cope with losing his hands and needing to adjust as a regular mud pony?I've seen unicorn Anon, pegasus Anon, even that one kirin Anon, but I can't think of any none magical, regular pony Anon stories.
>>42532503I can't think of any. I guess most people aren't interested to write about an Earth pony Anon.
>>42530754>>42531692How about Anonicorn rocking the clover as his civilian disguise? Similar to the one Celestia has.
>>42532837Forgot the picture.
>>42532840>His disguise is just regular anon pony because no pony would even entertain the idea of the King just walking around incognito.>Also his cover name is Incognito bonus points if almost no one sees through it, not even the closest ponies in his life like his students, except for one random pony like Roseluck or Applebloom or whatever but nut no one ever believes them.
>>42532503Its always been my understa ding that any anonpony is by default an earth pony
>>42532837>>42532840>>42532929I wanna draw this now
>>42533218Sure if it's not specified what tribe he is, but every anonpony story I'm aware of specifies unicorn, pegasus, etc.

>>42533566>>42533475kekI do want to point out that modern Equestria does have ponified anime like DBZ, so at the very least Fluttershy would know what Anon was doing. It's funny imagining her realizing the King of all ponies likes anime, but is too nervous to say anything about it.
i can see prince anon making up stupid bad guys that aren't real at all and everypony just believes him

>>42534631anons having fun gaslighting his fathful student
>>42534936The potential for Anon to fuck with twilight massively but also be supportive and inspiring could do interesting things to twiggypiggy's autism
>>42534978eventually he says something super serous but twilight doesn't believe it
>>42534978>>42534936I like to imagine Twilight is actually really comfortable around Anon because he broke through her perceived notions of his expectations early on when she was a filly by just taking the time to play and mess with her like a friend would. But as a grown pony she still tries to be the dutiful student because she wants Anon's acknowledgement beyond being the little filly he taught all those years.
>>42535703>Twilight panicking about messing up and Anon potentially finding out about it>Twilight:"What do I do Spike? What do I do?! Oh if the King hears about this, he'll be so disappointed in me. He might even... send me to magic kindergarten!">Spike:"Twilight you know he was just messing with you about that magic kindergarten stuff, he outright told you he was! Odds are King Anon will just clean up whatever is going on and give you a nibble on the ear. We should just ask him for help.">Twilight:"No! I- I know realistically Anon would just help, but I really want to fix this myself. I want to prove to him that I'm not a filly anymore. I'm his student, and I want to make him proud of me. A student of the King doesn't just run to hide behind his legs like a scared, little filly!"or something like that more or less.
>>42535783>A student of the King doesn't just run to hide behind his legs like a scared, little filly!">Spike creeps up and scares the shit out of her one time while the Prince is around>She yelps and rushes to hide behind Anon's legs.

>>42535902>Anon has figured out how to keep his regal reputation going strong by setting up subtle alarms throughout the castle to let him know when ponies are getting best him. >certain ponies, like Twilight, have a custom signature, so that he knows he doesn't have to bother getting up and putting on his regalia.>Doesn't take until account that Twilight brought her friends to see him.>Twilight gestures towards the door to Anon's solar in the castle, somewhat smug she gets to show off to her friends. >"Presenting: His divine wisdom, the Celestial Might of Equestria, King Anonymous Rex!">opens the door, to find him sitting on a beanbag, his regalia in a pile on the floor. In reading glasses and his mane in a manbun, Anon is just leisurely reading a comic book.>He looks up to see the shocked Mane 6 and an amused Spike.>Spike clears his throat trying not to laugh while Twilight looks mortified."hmm? Oh, just a second.">The door magically shuts, then reopens a few seconds later with Anon standing with a regal posture and his regalia on, mane flowing in the non-existent wind. "Welcome, my ponies, oh honored heroes of Equestria.">Spike speaks up>"I think the moment has passed, boss.">Anon slouches from his regal posture, fully relaxed as he shrugs. "Yeah that's fair. Sorry, I guess Twilight's custom signal masked the rest of you. Good to know, I'll have to adjust the castle's systems later. Come on in, take a load off. I've got snacks if anyone wants?"
now i need to see episodes that celestia is in just replaced with anon. im curious to see what A royal problem is like with Anon and Luna.
>>42536086It's kinda tough to think of what the premise would be exactly.>Assume Anon is well aware that Luna's job isn't easy and doesn't have the inherent complex kind of bitterness that comes with family, but maybe Luna is still passive-aggresively hostile with the pony she feels is in the position her sister should be in.>It's causing friction between them as Anon is slowly losing his patience with her. >Anon secretly dismisses the idea of the Friendship Map entirely because he finds the concept stupid>he doesn't outright say it though, because he knows it'd hurt Twilight's feelings>but that still adds its own difficulties for Starlight because he just can't take the situation seriously, scoffing under his breath the whole time. >Starlight internally freaking out as she realizes neither Alicorn is going to make this simple for her, what with Luna's hostility and Anon being less than impressed with her mission having her meddle into his day to day affairs.>Starlight is even more nervous than in the canon episode because Anon, while seen as a paternal figure to the kingdom, isn't known as the eternal font of patience and understanding that Celestia was in canon, and she's low-key terrified at any point she'll cross a line and have to deal with Anon's storied wrath. >The Dragons, Diamond Dogs, and Griffins are still terrified of him after all, even centuries after he supposedly tore through them. >Ironically Twilight is way more confident that things would work out than she was in canon, because she's only really seen Anon handle problems with his goofball personality unaffected, and reform some of the worst villains in Equestria's history, like Discord.>Surely he can make peace with a fellow Alicorn like Luna, right?
>>42536272I think that's one big difference between the way Twilight would be with Anon versus how she was in canon with Celestia.>Anon knows Twilight is the protagonist of the setting and tends to takes her words seriously.>from her perspective he usually takes her words seriously and almost knowingly.>The return of Nightmare Moon? Sounds serious, I have plans in place so just do the responsibilities for now and keep your head down. And when she finds the elements it's obvious to her that was his whole plan. >Cadance is acting weird? Yeah Anon knows, and he wants Twilight to keep it on the down low because the whole wedding is a trap for Chrysalis. The real Cadance was already secured and safe. >Discord's return? She already knew Discord is Anon's advisor and she's met the not!Navi plenty of times. Instead of crisis, she's invited to celebrate his release for serving his time. etc etc
>>42536086Or the Return of Harmony.
>>42536086I wonder how he’d handle Tirek. Would he go after him the moment he gets loose from Tartarus? Would he still sic Discord on him? Would Discord even betray the ponies in this timeline? He would have had centuries to learn the value of friendship during his time as Anon’s advisor instead of just a couple months/years.>Prince Anon tries to deal with Tirek the moment he escapes Tartarus>Something goes wrong, i.e Anon can’t find him, or he underestimates him and gets his magic sucked etc etc>suddenly Tirek is on the loose way earlier in the timeline and possibly hopped up on Alicorn magic, but doesn’t have Discord on his side this time Lots of places you can go with this. The idea of Anon having built some kind of combat mech straight out of Titanfall or Armored Core centuries ago so he could still fight even after getting his magic nullified popped into my head while writing this.
>>42536412>"I've heard tales of your combative nature, King. Noble of you to charge into single combat with me, yet utterly foolish. For without your magic, you are powerless before me!">Tirek gloats, growing in size and bulk before Anon's tired yet unimpressed gazeI cast gun. >Anon interrupts dully>"With your Alicorn magic within me, none- Wait, what?">A secret communication crystal embedded in Anon's regalia relays the coded message>In a hidden cave underneath Canterlot, a metallic monstrosity creaks and groans into life after more than a century of dormancy>A moment passes>A bright light rapidly ascends over the horizon>A rumbling bang echoes a split-second after>Anon gives the confused Tirek a defiant shit-eating grin>Tirek gallops out of the way as a towering quadrupedal titan lands nearby with a quake of earth and a cloud of dust>The machine takes a low squat stance to allow Anon to clamber into the cockpit>"What in the name of Tartarus is this?" The centaur asks in disbeliefA weapon to surpass Metal Gear, motherfucker!>Anon cheers gleefully before unceremoniously making his pride and joy kick Tirek with an iron-clad hoof.
What could have happened to celly?
>>42537671I've actually been rolling that idea around in my head and come up with a few possibilities>she peaced out to take a vacation>she swapped places with Anon>put herself into exile>the spell that put Nightmare Moon in the moon put her in the spell, but no one can tell because the light of the sun covers it, also no one can look directly at itthat's the best I can come up with
>>42537706Honestly, I hate the who,e princess retirement / voluntary exile angle in general. It's something that Celestia would never do, and it has been one of the worst things that they could have ever done in the show.
>>42537671>Anon's soul was pulled into Equestria through the alicorn ascension space place>This made Celestia appear there leading to a switcharoo>Anon's human body being either absent or destroyed by the faux-ascension meant he got spat back into Equestria>But Celestia didn't, shes trapped there with Anon having no idea that the swap happenedAs for why, maybe celery was getting impatient and did some voodoo to make a new alicorn after being unable to find a suitable candidate, kinda like the homunculus ideas earlier in the thread.Also very early cosy wip, im thinking twilight, cadence, spike and maybe sunset?
>>42537780forog
>>42537671My take is that Celestia's spell to banish Luna also ends up banishing her too. Just instead of in a place, it banished her into the future. Anon was dropped off in Equestria at the same time as an Earth Pony, and becomes and Alicorn on his journey to fix the fallout of Equestria losing its princesses because Harmony itself pushed him into it basically.Fast forward to let's say just after Twilight becomes an Alicorn, Celestia pops back up. From her PoV she just banished her sister a second ago, then her vision popped in and out and suddenly she's staring at Princess Purple Smart and a big green Alicorn stallion. Although if you wanted to bring her back earlier, right as Nightmare Moon is defeated feels like the appropriate spot. It'd certainly be a funny wtf moment when Nightmare Moon is purged and suddenly there are two Alicorn mares on the ground.Celestia has a thing for Anon, Anon focuses on Luna because she was his favorite pony in his human life, Luna is passive aggressive and distrusting of Anon, and is annoyed with her sister wasting time trying to woo Anon, shenanigans ensue.
>>42537835that could work, if we go with Anon appearing earlier rather than the full 1000 years it could be Celestia was trying to undo her spell to release Luna but it backfired
>>42537850>>42537835So many paths to choose from I dig it, I lean towards whatever is funniest at the time.
>>42537783Very adorable sketch!
>>42537870if we're going funniest, then I feel like Celestia being banished with Luna works best, purely for Anon's reactionwhile trying to keep everything together for 1000 years, for the first century, he probably funded search parties and magical investigations into finding Celestia, leading plenty of them himself, this in turn unintentionally brings ponies to view him in a positive light, seeing him as eager to see Celestia return, quietening any rumours that he was responsinbleby the time of the show, he's stopped forcing ponies to look for rulers they don't even remember the names of, but he personally has never stopped searching for Celestia, when he has a free moment inbetween court and teaching Twilight, Cadence or Sunsetthen, when Luna's return is inevitable he finally is on the brink of giving up, he wanted Celestia's return, initially because he thought he couldn't handle the job and because she should be found, but slowly, it's become about helping to ensure he doesn't make an enemy of Luna through misunderstanding, on the day he sends Twilight to Ponyvill he finally starts accepting reality and thinks of ways to best curtail Luna's inevitable distrust and furythen, when Nightmare Moon is defeated, Celestia is there as well, and while Twilight expected congratulations and thanks, her teacher, the epitome of calm, breathes deeply and screams the loudest, longest "FUCK!" she's ever heardalso it's funny from the perspective of Luna and Celestia, especially if the banishment was an instantaneous time travel for her, to blink and find herself 1000 years in the future, nopony remembering her name, and their being a male alicorn ruling
>>42538263While it's funny if Celestia returns just after Luna I think it robs any potential story telling with Luna and her distrust toward Anon.
>>42538316unfortunately correct, Anonicorn seems to only work and be most interesting in one of two, as Celestia's recent son to keep him young and a bit more understandable to have him bother Twilight, or to upright replace Celestia for the unique relationships this would generateunfortunately, the former, or at least similar to it, have been done before, and the latter risks mary sue-ism
>>42538374imo you can avoid mary-sueism pretty easily, just dont make him powerful, dont have things go his way often and avoid the typical everyone loves me even my enemies.
>>42538430seems easy enough, I remember one anon posting the idea of, other than the sun and moon shifting to take Celestia and Luna's place, he's only capable of powerful and versatile levitation magic, like the magic hand that slapped Torchhe most likely fumbles politically often due to his lack of Celestia levels of patience and you can still have ponies be suspicious of him even by the time of the story, not helped by his sterner rule and being King instead of Prince, hell, take it a step further, after King Sombra returns, you could have that cause more ponies to question him more as "a fellow King"
>>42538454Thats just my take anyway, I've only wrote a bit like the snooping cadence green earlier. Him being weaker than Celestia/Luna is fun imo, he has to over rely on what he is good at and I Imagine it'd force him to be more ruthless in fights to gain the upper hand/end them quickly so his enemies don't overpower him. Extra doubt from Sombra's return is fun, could be a lose-lose? he could have gone with Prince to seem less like Sombra but people still talk
>>42538316I think if Celestia does return it she be done in a manner that gives Anon and Luna enough time to get to know each other. Like Celestia attempted to break the spell, two years after the banshiment happened and thus she pops up two years later after Luna's return.
>>42537783Looking very cute so far
>"Hail Citizen">The tired guard shuffles past you, oblivious>He did not recognize you>The earth pony couple didn't either>"Oh my, I didn't know the King had a wife! Are you really the King's wife?">The ancient mare was the same story>"Ye look like a fine daughter. Why did the King never mention he had such a beautiful daughter?">On an early morning comet you came down from the Sun onto a quiet street>Accidentally banishing yourself when you were trying to rescue your sister was embarrassing >But now you've returned you sense something's not right>Everyone talks strange>Nopony recognizes their princess>And in the centre of this strange town there's a foreign standard hoisted depicting a single rearing Alicorn>You watch as a young stallion hoists another banner, this one long and thin between two buildings>"Happy King's Day."
>>42540029Love this
>>42540331Hm, did Anon accidentally cast himself into a different dimension?
>>42540542It's from the point of view of celestia upon her return. I imagine she would have mixed feelings. Glad to be free of the burden of rule yet hurt that no one remembers her and that she can't be all motherly over her ponies.
>>42540331I like it. I feel though if Anon was a fan of both Princesses he would have kept the summer sun celebration and made another celebration for Luna. If his plan was to look for and find Celestia, while also readying himself for Luna's return. He would have done more so that the ponies would have seen the Mare in the Moon as a tragedy and not some foal snacking monster.
>>42540936>Anon ended up putting a lot of money into state-sponsored theater to keep the memory of the Two Princesses alive>The story of Nightmare Moon ends up becoming one of the most famous screenplays in the country, ponies from all over flock to Canterlot every Summer Sun Celebration just to see it>It ends up having the same effect as making her a boogeyman did, except instead of ponies fearing her they pity her>She is not happy with thisCould be part of why she still sorta hates his guts even after he proves that he didn’t kill her sister
>>42540569>Implying Anon wouldn't immediately have her officially recognized and splitting the workload by the end of the week.>Implying any Alicorn gets to weasel out of doing their fair share of the paperwork. You're a real jokester, anon. A real silly little pony.
>>42540974I still think having some ponies pitying her, meanwhile in the 'cannon timeline' outright terrifed of her, is better. Because among all the pitying there would be ponies that are happy to know Luna go a good ending, and feel happy for her.Much of Luna's dislike for Anon would be based on her big sister. Anon just shrugging and saying 'I don't know' would sound like a lie to her. Though she can just visit his dreams so she'd learn that he's telling the truth.
>>42540980>Both princesses return>Anon sees it as his time to step away and let the rightful rulers take over>To most ponies it seems like he just disappears and there's panic>Now they have to find King Goofball and the horseshoe is on the other hoof when it comes to suspicion>Anon has no idea because he decided to become a NEET in a literal cave for a while
>>42540996>Anon's master plan to collect all the other Alicorns so they'll take over his work>Luna and Celestia return>Cadance and Twilight ascend >Flurry Heart is born>Cozy Glow is locked up in Magic Kindergarten suspension for the next few centuries to really make her understand friendship >Sunset retrieval arc>Discord reformed and there to give a hand when necessary genius
>>42541021It's crazy to me the King Anon deciding to retire actually would make sense. Like there, there's roughly six of you, figure it out.
>>42540936Oh he would keep the summer sun celebration. But would he pass up the chance for a big vain holiday about himself where he doesn't have to work?
>>42541204If I was Anon in that situation I would have given Discord his own holiday, just call it 'Tospy-Turvy' the one day where Harmony be damned, embrace the chaos of life. As for the King's holiday, nopony has to work. It's the ultimate do whatever you like day.
>>42541281>just call it 'Tospy-Turvy'>not calling it 'Opposite Day'with Equestrian shenanigans, having a literal Opposite Day would be the perfect holiday for Discord especially because, due to the nature of the day, nopony actually knows when it is
>>42540331>King's day>Not green day
>>42541281>20 years into his reign and Anon is fucking tired and needs a damn break.>Decrees one annual day of rest, nobody is to do anything but relax, beyond the absolute bare minimum needed to keep society going. >No court either, no petitions, no politics, nothing. >Unofficially called the King's Day of Rest >Shortened to King's Day overtime because it's snappier. >at some point the name change is made official under a quickly passed Bill in the House of Noble Ponies, as it's something beneath the notice of the king. >Anon realizes he has an easy way to give himself more days off, quickly officially recognizing: Summer Sun Celebration, Nightmare Night, and a hastily put together, ponified thanksgiving called Green Day.>All to give himself a guaranteed day off each month in the last few months of the year. >For the most part, this has made the last few centuries a lot more bearable.
Computer broke, no drawings for awhile sorry
>>42542256Understandable. Have a nice day.
>>42540974>Anon considered Luna one of if not his number 1 favourite pony several lifetimes ago>Seeing her in person after a very, very long time waiting made his year>But as she recovered from the rainbow blasting she grew suspicious, bitter, downright hateful of the green stallion>She was shocked, if not a little frightened the moment they met but as the days turned to weeks his attempts to talk to her were met with the cold shoulder, glares when she thought he didn't see>Spending entire evenings in the library 'catching up on recent history' >Keeping him at as much distance as she could while she recovered from the mix of thousand year banishment, possession by the nightmare and cleansing by the elments of harmony>The night of the grand galloping gala Anon made another effort to make her feel at ease, inviting her to the festivities >They were quite regal together greeting visitors and guests>Anon in a princely black suit & cape lined with white and gold> Luna in a gorgeous astral-themed ballgown that complimented her still regular, cyan mane>A few comments were made about them being a 'cute couple' among the typical flattery expressed toward royalty, though most of it toward Anon of course>Luna afterall, was the foal story come to life, the stranger, the 'newcomer'>Anon trying his best invites the night princess to dance>She keeps a formal expression on her face as she declines>Then to the delight of court-intrigue, leans in and whispers in his ear>....That he's a filthy usurper and she'd rather go back to the moon then ever dance with her sister's killer>It was almost audible when that little piece of lingering humanity inside the prince died
>>42542256>>42542672success, i've ghetto rigged my laptop to function as my tower for now, my tablet will work for it but i dont have access to my other files, unfortunate but i can draw still so no biggy.
>>42542682I could only imagine what that would do to an overworked and extremely tired lunafag.
>>42542682Sounds like a problem for Twilight to fix.>Anon starts to lose patience with Luna's behaviour.>If she wants to rot alone then let her>Luna gets even more bitter, throws in some comparisons between him and Sombra
>>42542682>she'd rather go back to the moon than ever dance with her sister's killerWhat's up with Moonbutt thinking this? Was it some irrational decision made while still exhausted from her whole beamed-with-a-rainbow-laser thing?
>>42542863probably jumping to conclusions, celestia just vanished and some random stallion took her place and because of it both her and her sister have been largely forgotten by Equestriayou could also take it that anon being nice comes across placating, like he did something wrong hes trying to make up for
Really enjoyed reading the Anonkirin story, took some creative liberties since theres no official young kirin design afaik
>>42543113Look at that silly little doofus, great picture Anon.
You think anyone ever called Anonicorn Big Green?Let that pony alone!
>>42542803>Luna whispers something to Anon during some public festival/celebration>Suddenly the normally stoic and composed king is crying for the first time in centuries, and it’s in front of thousands of ponies>Luna is taken completely off guard by this. Usually he takes her jabs and insults in stride>Now she’s stuttering and babbling trying to justify herself to the mob of angry ponies that are furious she made their beloved ruler sad
>>42543370>Cadance goes from hopeful to furious
>>42543113Cute! I bet this little guy gets all the kirin pussy.
>>42543113Soo adorable, thanks drawchad!
>>42543113Oh shit, that looks really good. Nice job anon>>42543177Probably only Discord, I feel like the vast majority of ponies would feel too scandalized by the very idea of addressing their ruler like that.
>>42544761Speaking of Discord, do you all think he should have meta-knowledge/know Anon’s history? I can’t decide if it would be funnier or not.>Discord knows all about Anon’s world and where he came from>To everyone else, they appear to be constantly speaking in some sort of secret code>Foreign nations spend millions of bits hiring their best codebreakers to decipher their ‘hidden messages’ for state secrets>They’re actually both just making shitty pop culture references to each otherAlternatively:>Discord has no idea where Anon came from, and no matter how he tries he can’t goad the information out of him. Anon occasionally references something human and Discord is silently FURIOUS that he can’t be in on the joke
>>42543113Cute. The horns surely grow over time. Just imagine what the situation in the womb would be like if it didn't.
>>42543113Thank you so much for this! I seriously love everything about him! It’s always so awesome when someone draws art based on one of my stories it’s such a huge motivator. I can’t stop smiling right now. I’ve got a 4 day weekend coming up next week so I’m planning to get the next chapter out then, hopefully. Funny enough, when I was first brainstorming the story, I actually debated whether the young kirin should not have their full manes, like in pic related and the way you drew him. I always thought the idea of kirin growing into their full manes was cute, and seeing how adorable your anon kirin looks makes me regret not going that route. Anyway, Glad to hear you’re enjoying the story, I’ll definitely be looking forward to more of your awesome art!
>>42543113>Kirin kids have shorter, probably softer hornsThat's cute as fuck anon
>>42542772Glad to hear that it works out for now. Hope the repairs go well too.
>>42545933You're very welcome anon, I love your prose (? if thats what the word for writing style is.) you've captured a wicked vibe with your writing
>>42545933Looking forward to the next anonkirin chapter when it comes out!
>>42540029It's like Anon doesn't process what's going on.
>>42541204>a big vain holiday about himselfAnd what would that be? The national spaghetti day?
>>42547361puhsketti day
>>42547611Erm, I love puhsketti day! Erm it's my most favorite national holiday!
>>42547611Or autism awareness day.
>>42548082Squinting right now very hard
>>42546964>Anon is so touch-starved that he doesn't recognize affectionChecks out.
We have anon, pegasus anon, anon kirin, anon thats celestias bastard son, anon thats an alicorn taking celestias place, what other flavours of anon are there in this thread?
>>42548211We had an earlier concept of an evil hermit Anon, and also the homunculus or 'spawn' of Chrysalis and Sombra.
The Kirin is pregnant AGAIN
>>42548269They just cant stop
>>42548254Its been an active thread creatively eh
>>42548269Anon-Kirin does not understand how to pull out
>>42548686Pulling out is for chumps.
>>42548211We need an evil nigga sombra loyalist anon
>>42549603I don't think there are enough people who care about Sombra.
>>42548269Wow
>>42549826Now Queen Umbra on the other hoof
>>42550104Imagine Anon Stallion being Queen Umbra’s husband unf
>>42543113What a handsome little fella.
>>42550104>>42550353>The yandere queen and the autistic kingThis would turn the realm into a mushroom cloud in one way or another.

>>42548211>>42548254the evil baby should be adopted by cadence and shining dragon anonapple anon, nice dude, prefers pineapplesevil anon that works for tempest could also be the hermithave we ever had a batpony one?
good morning
>>42550104Grand Visier Anonymous' codename abroad? The Raped
>>42551533Morning! Love the drawing, very nice!
>>42551533I love it, nice job Anon
>>42551533very nice, I particularly like the mane
>>42551737peganon is addicted to flying so i imagine his mane has the wonderbolt look, all swept back
>>42551778sound logic, I like it
>>42551778I second the other Anon's liking. It's a fun little detail
>>42551778It would definitely make sense.
>>42551533someone color this!
>>42538500Personally I feel the only ponies that should still be wary of him in the present would be scholars, and those generally knowledgeable of the past. Not as in downright distrust, but just by going off of old tomes and knowing the king's prior ruthless nature and temper. Considering most ponies had already forgotten about Luna's reign it would be fitting that the majority of the populace are overall fine with the concept of having a king since that is the only ruler they would have ever known in their lives. I love the idea that Celestia disappeared along with her sister. This would give genuine credence to the ponies knowledgeable with their history slight worry due to how convenient it would be for two princesses from a bygone era to disappear and suddenly be replaced with a stern alicorn proclaiming himself king of equestria. There would obviously be a lot of nuance in how he eventually became king, and like most conspiracy theories, the fine details end up lost to time. Also in relation to sombra, I can definitely see some ponies questioning the validity of a title like king in the first place. I could actually see this event turn into a Magna Carta-esque civil war, where both sides still want to cling onto their national heritage of a royal household, just one side wants the king to serve more as a figurehead rather than an acting political force.
>>42540029It's like anon is conflicted between receiving unconditional love, and that love coming from a pony who he did not care for in the show.
>>42551533Bless you, drawfag. This is really good. Im in desperate need of a peganon update. Sunn are you still alive? I need more cute RD and Anon!
>>42540331Fantastic green, I would love to see this possibly turn into a stranger in a strange land type of story, but having the concept of Celestia being the supposed foreigner instead of anon would be a fantastic twist.
>>42540996> After taking the newly returned princess to his palace, Anon is nearly jumping with joy to finally be done with ruling"This is a bit out of the blue, but I figure we'll have both of your coronations by weeks end, and uh, I dunno let's close out the remainder of the year and I believe the two of you will be completely ready.">Celestia, while cordial although fairly inquisitive since her return could only muster a neutral look towards the king of Equestria, clearly attempting to form an eloquent response. >Luna on the other hoof was less tactful in her approach"Naive, doth thou ignorance truly envelop thine era? We are royalty by right of founding oure nation long before thee pitiful ascension.">Celestia couldn't help but wince slightly at the disparaging wordage from her beloved little sister>Anon meanwhile was too preoccupied with his master plan to finally return to neetdom"I understand that, however my ponies do not. Even if it is purely ceremonial in function, it is a necessary step for a proper transition of power.">Anon didn't like the way Celestia pursed her lips, her neutral facade melting away due to the trio conversing in private"I must apologies King Anonymous, while I will accept my former title merely as a token gesture, I do not wish to retake the burden of leadership.">Anon could feel his heart sink, and his ears slightly fold "Bu- but, uh I um surely you just need some time to rest, I shouldn't have tried to push such a decision on you so early.">Celestia could only shake her head"No, I understand the weight of responsibility which is shackled to leadership. King Anonymous I, along with my sister have been given a second chance. However in a much more peaceful world. I wish to capitalize on this. I would like to explore this similar yet oh so different world. I'm sorry.">Anon eyes grew to the size of dinner plates, he could but meekly fix his attention back to Luna"...A-and you Luna, surely yo-">Luna cut off the desperate pleas of a monarch she cared little of"Tis been too long without my beloved sister... We hath much to discuss... As well as fix.">Celestia could only warmly smile at her beloved sister>Anon felt the world closing in around him, madness taking hold of his mind>Here's to another thousand years of nation baby sitting
>>42553028>His hair fell from its arcane flow>Somepony was speaking but the King wasn't listening>He felt his eyes narrow to pinpricks at the weight of their words>A hoof rested on his withers>"Your majesty?" Celestia asked softly>He turned to look at her>A severe look on his face"Discord's in charge.">There was silence for a moment >Celestia opened her mouth to respond but was shortly cut off>A cackling filled the room>The now former king swiped his own crown off his mane and held it up>A lion's paw materialised and grabbed it>"HA." the dracconequis chuffed>"Told you they wouldn't go for it! Looks like I win our little bet nonny!">Celestia and Luna were aghast, they of course were not privy to Discord's release.
>>42553028>That broken Elizabethan
>>42553115Anon wins. The Princesses will not let Discord rule unopposed, and as a result of the immediate exile of King Anon due to allowing Discord the throne, Equestria will once again need rulers. We've gone full circle.Anon's reputation will be utter trash, but reputation will mean nothing when he's in his neet cave.
>>42553216based!
>>42553216Cut to like a month later. An extremely heartbroken Twilight is confronting her old teacher, who's gone full neet/hermit and is fucking drinking blue milk and shit.
>>42553132Sorry, I could really only care enough to look up quick definitions on Google. I wouldn't have even bothered but I felt more anons would have been annoyed if she wasn't speaking old timey
>>42553216Until some world ending disaster approaches making the begrudging princesses to set aside their grievances towards anon. It would just turn into increasingly convoluted plans to force Anon into helping them... Or at least get him off of his makeshift couch.
>>42553260The idea that Harmony wouldn't allow Anon to become a neet is actually pretty funny to think about. Like Harmony was A'okay with Celestia retiring, but Anon, nah... get the fuck back on the throne.
>>42482585*Wears trenchcoat as stylistic choice
>>42510584Altho he's now in a place unbound by the constraints of human world, so he has more flexibility.
>>42543370That would fuck me up. Do everything in your power to make your favorite ponies' lives easier or better, and when they come back, they hate your guts, and nothing you do makes it better.I would just retreat into myself at that point and just go 'auto' mode.
>>42553269I hate that they had the princesses retire. Especially for Luna, she barely got any time on the throne compared to her sister. And most of Celestia's reign was spent regretting Luna's banishment. Like, the reunion is the perfect opportunity to turn over a new leaf with each other, and rule as intended.
>>42553344Luna becomes autist storyline
>>42553352It really was the best time for Luna to shine. Have Equestria benefit from her powers more which they've been without for a thousand years, yet instead her powers didn't really seem to do much and well... Equestria was doing really well without her.
>>42551373>dragon anonNot a big fan of this. Anon would eventually outgrow the ponies and that would be shit for many reasons. Not being able to make love with one included.
>>42553352>I hate that they had the princesses retire.This was by far the worst decision in the entirety of the show. And the last two seasons had many flaws to count.
>>42553344Would make a great drama. Especially if Celestia were to return, and Luna would have to come face to face with her needless aggression, however her attempts to make amends fall on deaf ears as either anon has fully entered a day-to-day autopilot mode, locking himself away in his mind, or becomes genuinely spiteful for the needless aggression he was subjected to. Could culminate in Luna desperate to make amends, she forces her way into his dreams only to discover he never wanted to rule in the first place.
>>42553361>her powers didn't do much and Equestria was doing really well without herForgets Luna enters the Dreamscape to help subjects with anxieties and problems from waking life
>>42553468Which is a nice way to support her ponies but completely unnecessary for society to continue succeeding, as they did for one thousand hears without her.
>>42553468Cute. So do ponies with therapy cutie marks. Equestria losing Luna for a thousand years did borderline nothing to it. Ponies got over their nightmares by themselves. The 'nightmares' of the dream realm never escaped and caused problems. Etc,etc.
>>42553483Actually, the only 'nightmare' to almost escaped the dream realm, was a nightmare that LUNA made.
>>42553492Kind of sad when you factor that even after she returned, she continued to play second fiddle to her Celestia, and during the short time she got to reign she was never given the opportunity to accomplish anything of note.
>>42482452/anonstallion/ current baker here, new thread>>42553511>>42553511>>42553511>>42553511
>>42553501Luna got done really dirty by the writers, or just not enough thought was put into it, because it's absurd. The fact that Luna comes back after her fall to find Equestria better off without her and ponies only know her as a nightmare that eats foals, how did she not spiral.Well, at least Princess Celestia was happy to have her sister back, and that's all that really mattered in the end.
good thread lads
>>42553609This. It was a good one.
