Once you have your assignment, write a nice romantic letter in character as their beloved. Send it off as early as possible to make sure it arrives before February 14th. You can add extra goodies, but it isn't required, the letter is what's important.More info in the FAQ: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1WdEPj2W0yxVk9rNAcoYC235WMJSNBm8nfaOEEPDcqV8>What's the timelineJanuary 7: Signups openJanuary 15: Signups closeJanuary 16-18: Assignments go outJanuary 19-31: Write your letters!

...except when it does. Sorry about that.
>>42972593I'm excited for this, but I hope my parents don't get the letter while I'm at Harmony

God, I love my wife.
>>42973606I love your wife too.
I just realized you guys were on page 8 as well when I bumped the secret Santa. Black to page 1

>mfw can't write in a girl scriptAnons how would you feel about a typed out letter rather than a handwritten note? I'm no princess, and I'm afraid of asking my fem friends to write a valentines note for me
>>42974918Thats my plan. My handwriting is hot garbage so it will be typed in a handwriting font instead.
>>42974711Saaaaame, brother. >Be at work meeting>Bring notebook with notes for letter, make a rough draft while listening to them talk about office politics>"Anon, you must be taking some very good notes! Be sure to share that with the others by the end of the meeting.>picrel

lurking......
>>42974918>>42974938I'd like to at least try making a handwritten one, but if it's too bad I might resort to a typed letter instead. Or I'll just send both version as sending to the country I'll send to only had a 50% success rate for /ss/ cards I might send one version as a standard international letter (got enough stamps for that left anyways) and send another one with tracking. Personally I'd be fine with either, be it garbage hand writing or a printed letter. I totally get it.Except for like that one scene in season 1, the ponies seem to have their own font anyways so it wouldn't be surprising if they struggled with ours / needed help from somepony else to transcribe it.>afraid of asking my fem friendsYeah, in my case I know that my mother has really good handwriting. However, I do not wish to explain this event to her. She was already quite unhappy about the pony plushes I had at my place.
Reminder that ponies write with their mouths
I joined /sa/ once a few years ago, and I still adore how much thought had gone into the letter I had received from Discord via Anon proxy. Knowing I can't currently provide an experience as heartfelt and profound, I haven't signed up for this /sa/, but I want (You) to succeed. >>42975497How very sensual.
I love her so much
>page 10
>>42976500>diamond dog waifuThat's extremely surprising
>>42976740>>diamond dog waifu*Husbando
>>42975980Oi, anon, she wants to know what species you are in the letter she is addressing to you
Kids have been sick bros. I've got a kinda starting framework in my mind but havent sat down and wrote anything yet. How fucked am I?
>>42977220>havent sat down and wrote anything yetThe script for mine is done. It'll be written out in ink tomorrow and shipped a couple days after along with some goodies.
>>42974918>>42974938>>42975395I've always written in my boring handwriting, it's not pretty but at least it's manually done. I don't think it matters too much though and I don't mind what the writing I get looks like, it's more about what's in there (obviously if you can write nicely that's extra great, though). I also cope a little by telling myself >>42975497, but I've also written for unicorns and it doesn't apply there, lel. I think I actually tried doing a little bit with my mouth one time but I think I gave up.
>>42977353>The script for mine is doneI have the supplies, envelope, stamps, just haven't actually started writing a script :'(
>>42977353I'm essentially at the same stage, hopefully I'll get most of the way today. I'm not entirely happy with the script but I cope that it being a bit rough fits the character.
>>42977353The initial script of mine is like 95% done. But I'll probably spend today and tomorrow iterating over it a few more times and making adjustments. Got some of the supplies, but a few things left to get.>>42978596>I cope that it being a bit rough fits the characterI think my biggest cope is that the weird latecomer situation I'm in would have meant that anon would have gotten no letter from his waifu otherwise.
>>42978911>the weird latecomer situation I'm in would have meant that anon would have gotten no letter from his waifu otherwiseThat's true, though! Always better to get a letter than no letter.
>>42977026A humie
Anon said fillies but did not specify
>>42979530Carrot top it is or Featherweight.
>>42979599Not fillies
>>42979599The correct answer is Toola Roola and Coconut Cream
>>42979530Rumble is a cute filly
>>42979530Anon is talking about Filly Funtasia of course
>>42979530Said what about fillies? Is his special somepony just fillies in general?
filly most likely to send a secret admirer letter?
>>42980525Definitely Swibble. Rarity would give her the idea, then remind her to put a spritz of perfume on the page before sending it.
>>42979152Very good 'nonymous. She's been writing and discarding letter after letter trying to get it just write- it's really quite cute. She's been asking about how to make this letter especially sincere, and I've made a few suggestions that she's mulling over.
>>42980947Right*lets just pretend that was a pun. it's been a long night.
>10
>Secret Santa thread diedDo we need another?
>Doing background "research" because I haven't ever watched past season 7FUCK me I hate the late seasons
>>42982179Yes. January isn't over yet.
>>42982277niu /ss/
>>42981433
>>42982233I'm trying to keep it as season invariant as possible, the letter could be from anywhere from before Season 1 to after Season 8. In my imagination I'd place at some point during S3 though. But yeah it depends on the character, and even in my case some late season episodes have been helpful for writing.
>>42983440>Who is best mom?
>>42983777Nice tripsAnd while I quite like Cadance, in a best mom competition Twilight Velvet probably has her beat pretty hoofily.
>>42983777your mom
My motivation for this has been alternating between:>don't even want to think about this and regret joining>don't want to be borhered by anything else so I can work on this
>>42974230It's wrong. It's "Ein Volk, Ein Reich, Ein Führer." If you get the order wrong, you put the Führer BEFORE the Reich, when the Reich is supposed to BE the Führer.

a bump with love
>>42985770>posterHoly shit what a hot narcissist
>have to write letter same week as scholarship applicationsI need to get better with my timing of commitments...
>>42972585Letter is finished and being reviewed by top mares and other creatures that I know are in this threadNow to figure out the rest of the the project details. I can't draw very well without references, and if its coming from the mare herself, it would be odd for her to draw a picture of herself in a love letter, no? So instead I've got something else in mind. Want to thank Pony Eros again for putting this event together, as these community events really bring out the creative aurtist in me. I really hope anon likes what I put together. Seeing them happy will beat the joy I get from getting a gift in return but that is probably just cope from being grinched for my first /ss/
>>42986768>I can't draw very well without references, and if its coming from the mare herself, it would be odd for her to draw a picture of herself in a love letter, no?She might not usually draw herself, but she might want to add a picture of herself to the letter for her beloved to hold on to when they can't be physically together.
>>42985149No way, they created theology for bootlickers
>>42983777
I'd like to send a small extra with the letter, but sending more would likely increase the shipping time and I can't guarantee that the whole thing still makes it before the 14th. Slightly unsure what to do, personally it wouldn't bother me if international mail meant I'd get the letter later, but not sure how others may feel about this.
>>42986997Not a bad point. I can explain away the lack of immaculate lines with the excuse of "its not easy to draw with a pencil/charcoal in your mouth" or something else in character>>42986768Also NOT GRINCHED as it turns out, I gotta stop putting dirt on my santas name
>>42987628I think as long as Anon knows your letter is coming at all and they aren't being bugged, more effort goes a long way if youre willing to do it-Plus postal service is kinda fucky wucky rn, so I imagine late letters are to be expected at this point
>>42972585New /ss/ bread>>42987780Low effort copy paste edition
>>42987796Let's not end like the /ss/ thread too.
She's trying her hardest but she isn't a big writer, maybe Twilight could help
>>42983067
>>42986768You're welcome and don't worry about the drawing. It might not make that much sense but personally I don't think that'd matter much, but it's also absolutely not required. I myself pretty much just add a couple pictures (though I'm also pretty burnt out on drawing from /ss/).>>42987628You could ask your admiree, but I think extras would make it more sweet even if it were to arrive late (Discordfag's point about the mail this year is good, too). Also, if extras mean you have to go for a parcel, it might be easier to get tracking.>>42987796Thank you, also how the fuck did it die in less than two hours, it wasn't even prime posting time I'm pretty sure.>>42988487Could be cute, I like to include small everyday stuff like that in my letters that often include other ponies to make the letter feel more lived (and also because I don't really know how to write the romance part well, admittedly my letters tend to be more standard letters than love letters).
Teaser bump. whats in the magic box, trixie? Only one Anon will find out.
The cards I ordered should come today. Then it's just finish the text, write it out and send it.
>>42989658Cute. How you make?
Coy Caw, your letter is in the mail! With a bit of luck it might even make it to you on time.>>42989658Damn, that's a lot of effort. This Trixfag is very lucky.
>>42989946The box was something I had lying aroundThe Trixie is from Temu
Hey Sunsy Dee,sorry I gotta be weird about dox, but from what I've been told at the post office it would be better for international mail if I put the entire name on. Maybe forward that through Pony Eros or if your confident that the address you gave is sufficient, let me know and I'll put that on as is.
Back up
I should have my letter ready today.
Don't die
I have all suplies. Yesterday I did a practice round of writing the letter. Writing in a cleaner handwriting is much more tedious then just using my usual one, but having to go this slowly over the letter has usefull for noticing some parts that could have been worded better. Now I just need to write the actual one and will probably send it Saturday morning.
>>42988986>more standard letters than love lettersI might be somewhat quilty of this too, but I think it somewhat works with her and by now it's too late to do something completely different anyways.
>>42992774About halfway done, will do the rest tomorrow.>3 posts in a rowI'll go to bed now, someone you will have to take over to keep this alive.
>>42990658Sup. Just letting you know it is my plan to drop your letter off at the post office tomorrow! There is supposed to be a huge snow storm over the weekend, if there is a delay I'll let you know.
The letter will be done on time. I'll make sure of it.
>>42990367Hey Teasing Sweeper!Twilight told me she put the letter in the interdimensional mailbox. It should arrive to you soon.
It's almost February, finish your cards!
Going to try sending out my package today. Stand ready for its arrival, Private Party
>>42994457Nice, thank you!
Mooseknuckle Moist your letter is coming slower than I would have liked but I hope to have it out to you and in the mail by Sunday.
