mail-mi he/him Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Glad you like her! We'll see what mail-mi has to say about her. I found a few tutorials for drawing unicorn auras, but they're all written for programs I've never heard of. I still refuse to be converted to ponies, but...she's cute.
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted February 19, 2015 Author Posted February 19, 2015 I still refuse to be converted to ponies, but...she's cute. Would a pony comic of Timeport losing spectacularly change your mind?. 1
mail-mi he/him Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Would a pony comic of Timeport losing spectacularly change your mind? It might help.
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted February 19, 2015 Author Posted February 19, 2015 It might help. Any votes for who he should lose to? Moral Guardian? Funtimes? Backtrack? ....nope, he's going to lose to Fantomah. 1
Voidus Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Any votes for who he should lose to? Moral Guardian? Funtimes? Backtrack? ....nope, he's going to lose to Fantomah. Metronome. Everyone loses to Metronome in the end. 1
Kobold King he/him Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Any votes for who he should lose to? Moral Guardian? Funtimes? Backtrack? ....nope, he's going to lose to Fantomah. I want in on the fun! But why, you ask, are Sam and Timeport playing chess in the Cutie Mark Crusader's clubhouse? Make up your own reasons. I'm as stumped as any of you. I still want to see Timeport losing to Fantomah, though. 4

TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted February 19, 2015 Author Posted February 19, 2015 Once I have access to the pony creator again, I will ponify the glorious curbstomp between Timeport and Fantomah. 1

I'm as stumped as any of you. But they're playing on the wrong side of the board! /s Edited February 19, 2015 by Tulir
Kobold King he/him Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 But they're playing on the wrong side of the board! /s You're supposed to pay attention to the look of defeat on Timeport's face. Not the board.
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted February 19, 2015 Author Posted February 19, 2015 You're supposed to pay attention to the look of defeat on Timeport's face. Not the board. My headcanon: Timeport insisted they play from the wrong side of the board. Sam tried to correct him, but he fingered his battleaxe, so she agreed to play. And Sam STILL won. 2

And then Funtimes teleported in, blew a raspberry at him, and teleported Sam away before he could do anything particularly horrid to our innovative victor? 1

Kobold King he/him Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Yes. It happened exactly like that. The scene that could have been. (Though for the record, Timeport entering the same room as any of the vanillas is to be avoided at all costs. Unless he's entering a room with Angel Zoe Finch, and then only if she's heavily armed and bearing his weakness. ) Out of curiosity, how many rooms are in the Tillamook cottage? Did Funtimes account for things like bathrooms or showers or internal heating? 1

Did Funtimes account for things like bathrooms or showers or internal heating? Preferably with Remington and at least one Reckoner running support. Let's see....there's the main area/Remington's room, Sam and Revolution's room, the room Funtimes shares with Nathan, and a small kitchen. There are two bathrooms, wiring for electrical lights run by a generator, and central heating. If they looked in the fridge they'd find milk and eggs, and if they opened the freezer they'd find ice cream. That's all Funtimes thought to stock them with when she made them.

They can stand by, but my internal karma-meter demands that Angel deal the killing blow. Cool. Two more questions: How likely would it be for one of the cottage's faucets to issue lemonade, like another Doctor designed in a certain Christmas special? And what kind of ice cream? This is the kind of important detail that literature is made of. 1
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted February 19, 2015 Author Posted February 19, 2015 <p> They can stand by, but my internal karma-meter demands that Angel deal the killing blow. Cool. Two more questions: How likely would it be for one of the cottage's faucets to issue lemonade, like another Doctor designed in a certain Christmas special? And what kind of ice cream? This is the kind of important detail that literature is made of. The lemonade faucet is about as likely as Timeport committing eight new atrocities while walking to the bathroom. Which is to say, almost a certainty. Let's see....she had just found Nathan when she made the cottage, and she had just checked on him to make sure he was safe when she went through the kitchen and bathrooms making things like hairbrushes and the fridge, so that means the type of ice cream most likely to be in the freezer is... Caramel fudge brownie. 1

TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted February 19, 2015 Author Posted February 19, 2015 As promised, here is Timeport meeting Fantomah. A little background: Fantomah is a Golden Age comic book character, predating Wonder Woman by about two years. Called "The Woman of the Jungle," she has incredible, almost godlike powers, which she uses to protect the jungle and its inhabitants from exploitation. She does it in some…er…interesting ways. Like making it rain panthers. And she is about to meet Timeport. 6

Edgedancer he/him Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 To paraphrase the Monk theme song: There's a jungle out there, and it hates Timeport. Panthers in the very air we breath.

Jo and the Bush all/any Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 2015: The Epics SparkCloud and Hardwire wage war in Portland, Oregon, destroying the city's central power grid. Was that taken from Sightline's intro? Because in his second post he states that he got his powers in Bend, which is where those two had fought. I can move it to Portland if you want though.
