pony glee

Yesterday: Discovered the proto-existence of Mane 6. There's also a pony fighting game in development that's based on Super Smash Bros. but I don't care about that so much.

Yesterday: marzipan_pig sent me a link to Friendship is Optimal. Haven't read it yet.

This morning: Someone behind me whistled the MLP theme when they saw the little Rarity toy on my Adult Professional bag. (I didn't know what secret handshake was appropriate in return, and I didn't see who it was.)

what I'm reading

• What are you currently reading?

Invader! Jago is so cute. Whatever the atevi equivalent of a massive crush is, she definitely has it.

• What did you recently finish reading?

Foreigner, of course. Wow, those intro sections remain unhelpful. Having written atevi POV such that it was not obviously alien kind of undermines the perceptual and emotional differences the rest of the series hinges on. (Also mecheiti are spelled wrong sometimes even this early, argh. Spellcheck will learn words, people!)

Something which I have just sent off in a package as a hopefully-welcome surprise.

Also Yuletide including:

Lesbian Saffy

Crossing the streams of Nina Hoffman's early novels

A lost episode of Community
(also adorable and hot Troy/Abed/Annie smut fics, one of which is hilariously in character)

And "Friendship is Optimal" was much more interestingly creepy than the offhand rec had led me to expect.

• What do you think you’ll read next?

That would be Inheritor, which I guess I should get from the library. Either we don't have books 2-9 or I just can't find them; either is fairly likely.

I want something fluffier for tandem reading. Not sure what yet.
