TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted March 4, 2015 Author Posted March 4, 2015 (edited) MAJOR Firefight spoilers. Do not click the spoiler tag if you have not read the book. Seriously, people. Just don't do it. Also, don't take this theory seriously. So my brother and I were talking about Calamity. We covered all the usual ground—he's evil, he's being coerced, he's been twisted by whatever caused him to twist the people he gives powers to—and then we landed on another theory. What if Calamity isn't evil, and he isn't coerced? What if he's something far more dangerous? What if Calamity is a moron? Edited March 4, 2015 by TwiLyghtSansSparkles 4

He had to be a gigantic moron to the point of the powers using itself to miss what's happening though. Unless what he meant by telling David to "Take it! It's yours" was "Ugh, just take the powers already! I want to get back to my Jersey Shore marathon!" 2

That's the most hilarious possibility yet proposed. :D ...Would this make Mister Meh his Chosen One? 2

That's the most hilarious possibility yet proposed. :D ...Would this make Mister Meh his Chosen One? Yep. And if Calamity ever puts his phone down long enough to notice his Chosen One is dead, he'll create an entire army of new Epics to send after Timeport. ….which actually explains the Unicyclist and Sunburst quite well. 2

Kobold King he/him Posted March 4, 2015 Posted March 4, 2015 Yep. And if Calamity ever puts his phone down long enough to notice his Chosen One is dead, he'll create an entire army of new Epics to send after Timeport. ….which actually explains the Unicyclist and Sunburst quite well. I wasn't aware the Sunburst or the Unicyclist would be attacking Timeport. Not that I object to either, of course. What's Calamity's favorite mobile phone game? He strikes me as an Angry Birds type. 1
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted March 4, 2015 Author Posted March 4, 2015 So that's why Backtrack got powers, Calamity wasn't paying attention. "Huh? Yeah, sure, you can have the power to see the past or something. Would've helped me with Flappy Bird, but whatever." 1
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted March 5, 2015 Author Posted March 5, 2015 You know what? I'm making a pony. Any suggestions about who? Make a Superman pony so he can get seriously freaked out at the Steelheart pony. 1
Kobold King he/him Posted March 5, 2015 Posted March 5, 2015 Sounds excellent. EDIT: Pony code: 3Q002S41701B287AF7BF990400100BB96UN1D3F10A00000070BA8200FF7FFF33115B5300FFFFFE I like him! Let's just hope he's not unfortunate enough to have his logo as his cutie mark. That could make the whole "secret identity" thing a bit trickier to navigate. 1

That could make the whole "secret identity" thing a bit trickier to navigate. Please. All he has to do in the comics is mess up his hair and put on a pair of glasses, so if pony!Superman puts a pair of glasses over his cutie mark, he'll fool literally everyone. I love Superpony, by the way. He looks just like a Superman pony should look. 3
Kobold King he/him Posted March 5, 2015 Posted March 5, 2015 Excellent. That's what I was aiming for. (I didn't want a superpony to look like a steelheart pony...) If you don't mind, I'd like to put him into the Pony Vault.
Kobold King he/him Posted March 5, 2015 Posted March 5, 2015 Okay! I don't mind. And there he is! Right between Stephen Vondra and Timeport, because he'd make one awesome member of The Dalles City Guard and I'd like to see him pummel relentlessly go a few rounds with Timeport. 2

Any day Timeport gets curbstomped is a good day. Oh, you know what'd be interesting? If Superpony met Fantomah and they got to talking about what a menace Timeport was, and talk led to a team up..... 2

mail-mi he/him Posted March 5, 2015 Posted March 5, 2015 Are there any storylines that need my posting?
Kobold King he/him Posted March 5, 2015 Posted March 5, 2015 I approve of this soon-to-be comic I don't have Fantomah's pony code, but I succumb to insanity long enough to make a pony comic. Major Firefight spoilers: Remember how Regalia mentioned her plan to have Megan seduce David? I choose to interpret her as an evil Shipper on Deck from now on. 7

I'm glad I could return your sister's favor. For that matter, I'm glad I could spark a few laughs at all. On a less humorous--but still pony--note, I put together Newton Mark I. It's hard giving a pony a suitably punk-like appearance. Anypony got thoughts or criticisms? 2

On a less humorous--but still pony--note, I put together Newton Mark I. It's hard giving a pony a suitably punk-like appearance. Anypony got thoughts or criticisms? I pictured her face being rounder, and maybe if you added some pink to her mane or tail, it would help with the punk flair? Edit: Here's the Fantomah code, for anyone interested. 401N061281E2E2E2A8A8A804511F2DFDFON183720504000380FEEC3DFF7FFF02107F3FCC004CB2 I should have the comic done tomorrow.

I was lamenting my inability to make her face any more sharp and angular. I guess we're operating from slightly conflicting visions of the canon. I'll definitely try some pink, though. Tomorrow, as I await the next installment in the Adventures of Pony Fantomah. 1
Edgedancer he/him Posted March 5, 2015 Posted March 5, 2015 Any ideas how to fill the last 1,5 pages of this thread, so the new one can start with a Fantomah comic?
Kobold King he/him Posted March 5, 2015 Posted March 5, 2015 Any ideas how to fill the last 1,5 pages of this thread, so the new one can start with a Fantomah comic? Ooh! I know! We could discuss ways of filling the next 1.5 pages of the thread! That's sure to kill some space. 2
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted March 5, 2015 Author Posted March 5, 2015 I suggest we fill the next 1.5 pages of this thread with suggestions for how to fill the next 1.5 pages of this thread. 2

That is a brilliant idea! It's so brilliant there will definitely be people trying to copy it. There's always the classic pony and jokes method. Or people could place bets on the current fights.
