    Yeah, you and I both know who wins this one.
    This is my third public Flash animation. It's been about 5-6 months since I actually messed around with flash, so it was a bit awkward getting used to the program again (Especially when it's slow as freaking everything on my computer for some reason :L) This took about.. 2 days of working on it in total to complete? But I didn't get it completed until last night. And I was making it about a week before hand so... yeah.
    But hey! Tell me what you think! I LOVE to hear what you people have to say about most things!

    So, I hope you all have a wonderful day and a lovely night, until we meet again.

    Well well, isn't this something that isn't talked about to a mind boggling degree?
    Heheh, hello everyone, name's Avery. I'm here today (rather tonight for me) to just... ramble about Love and Romance and how it really... affects people. Now, I'm in no position to declare anything, I don't even have anyone special at the moment, but its still nice to think about these things to keep my mind calm and collected. However, with how many love songs I've been finding lately... it just makes me want to write a bit about it.
    Though most people would just pass this by, I really just made this blog to... ramble. To let my mind go and just relax as I write something that's on my mind. And believe me, I've gotten a lot on my mind that I wish I would've wrote down. But that was the past and it's done for. But now, let's just focus on something that we all know and hold dear to our hearts to the end of our time.
    I never really wanted to actually talk about romance up front like this, as I can barely hold myself together when I even think the possibility of me or one of my characters actually being in a relationship with anyone, I kinda... fall apart in a nervous wreck of everything. I usually need to walk away from the subject and take a breather most of the time! But... that's kinda my thing since I'm not used to the romantic nature of love since... well, I never really experienced it besides the love of my family.
    Of course, say what you will, I can't hold myself together when things get lovey dovey. In that sense, I'd be one of those cliché people I always read in books. But really, I love to just think about the subject from time to time... it helps me keep calm honestly. Helps me keep myself together and not fall into depression most times, and you have no idea how many times I saved myself just by thinking about one of my fantasy crushes, heheh. It's kinda amazing really.
    Though, everyone should have that special little moment to themselves, up against a couch, all cozy and warm, cuddling together next to a fireplace, it's all filled with a romantic vibe really. Something to be treasured forever, and cherished just as much. It's a great thing to do, to be with that special someone in your life, talking about events that have happened, laughing the night away, and simply being happy together. It's nice, and something I wish I did more with someone.
    Heheh, oh no, I'm becoming soft now haha. Actually, now that I'm writing about this, let me tell you about my fantasy crushes. Though, you may know both of them due to popularity alone, I like them for who they are, well... actually love them for who they are. They both have that vibe that feels like they could help me through tough times, and I help them when the time comes. Then again... I'm right here, talking about this instead of maybe writing my story (But really, its hard to write it for some reason... I don't know why)
    But they are Twilight Sparkle and Blaze the Cat. Ironic huh? A guy with a prince character happens to be crushing on other members of royalty. But... this was waaaaay before I EVER made any characters honestly. They both were the first ones I EVER really... found myself attracted to, mainly because of what they do. I felt, even back then, that they could help me with the stuff that I have trouble with. And I would always imagine the crazy adventures that I'd have with them... going through forests, the great plains, and relaxing with friends a plenty. It's also weird... I'm attracted to purple for some reason, never knew why. I guess I just like purple that much.
    ...Oh boy, I think I wrote enough. Hahaha. Well, this will be my ending statement for this entry. Even though I don't exactly make a lot of these, it's... still fun to let my mind ramble on. If you came this far, haha, thanks for reading. Though I will ask something... do you care if I started an Ask Blog for my characters? I always think that those lets people develop their character a bit more, with random questions coming from other people. Course, I wouldn't know if it was alright if I could do such a thing, which is why I'm asking this. But before I go, because I really need some sleep, how about you tell me your experiences with love and romance? It'd be interesting to hear them!
    I hope you have a wonderful day, and a lovely night, until we meet again.

    Greetings and salutations fellow ponies of Canterlot, my name is Avery and I would like to direct your attention to the mystery of Alicorns; their existence, purpose, and overall, why they are such a rare race. During this, I would like to point out that this is but a personal theory of mine, even making a video about it in the near future when I get my laptop back to me. You can discuss this however you want, but I implore you that this is my own personal thought and process about the Alicorn race, since I took the option of having an Alicorn OC, and I'm sticking with it.
    Now, I brought this up mainly because I was reading through the comments of my previous entries on this blog. Even though the previous ones were more for venting out stress, it still made me think. (Also, for somereason, I don't get notifications about the comments naturally. Which is why it took me this long to begin with.) So now, I'm going to throw my idea at you, and hopefully you'll follow the same idea that I have, perhaps... even make something from it.
    Now, the Alicorn race is an extremely rare race in which it is composed of the three main pony races. Those being: Earth Ponies, Unicorns, and Pegasi. So far, from this point, the only time we've ever seen Alicorns the majority of the time, is through royalty. Princess Celestia, Princess Luna, Princess Cadence, and Princess Twilight. First... let's look at Twilight, as she wasn't always the Princess of Friendship that we now know her as.
    Twilight was a simple unicorn in the studies of Princess Celestia, working her hardest to please her mentor as best as possible. Though with the coming of Ponyville, she then took on lessons in friendship, as she and all of her close friends were the pieces of the Elements of Harmony. During the hard and troublesome quest through many adventures, and simple life lessons, she had... gained the Alicorn gene through the magic of Celestia.
    We all know that Alicorn magic is extremely powerful, capable of raising and lowering the sun and moon, bringing love to a pony's heart, and bringing harmony to all of the land. So, something like this should be easy to handle, right? ...Well, I don't believe its as simple as that. So, let's take a look at the other princesses: Celestia, Luna, and Cadence.
    Cadence was the most recent princess that we had knowledge of before Twilight, and thanks to Twilight's flashbacks, we know that she was an Alicorn when she was taking care of Twilight when her family wasn't around. But, we also know that she is the Crystal Princess, ruler of the Crystal Empire. However, her empire was gone for well over a thousand years, so how is it that she was able to escape the vanished empire? That's an entirely different story for another time, but still noteworthy. Cadence has been the Princess of Love for quite sometime, and she has that title well kept. However, we don't know a lot about Cadence, other than she's the ruler of the Crystal Empire, and that she's the Princess of Love.
    Now, for Celestia and Luna. They've been around for well over a thousand years as well, possibly even two thousand years. They raise the Sun and Moon respectively, so their powers are supreme at this point. Celestia has been the main ruler of Equestria, giving guidance to those that were in need of it. Luna was the second in command, helping those ease their troubles, and prevent any trouble from being caused. Much like the objects they move; the sun usually gives guidance for lost ponies, while the moon helps calm the mind, usually bringing peace.
    We've always known that Celestia and Luna were Alicorns, perhaps since birth, but what about them really makes the Alicorn race so rare? Well, let's take a look at their titles.
    Princess of the Sun
    Princess of the Moon
    Princess of Love
    Princess of Friendship
    Each Princess represents something, Celestia represents the Sun, which brings light.
    Luna represents the Moon, which symbolizes darkness.
    Cadence represents Love, something that resides in every living being.
    Twilight represents both Magic and Friendship, two things that can be compared as extremely powerful in all media.
    So, what am I getting at? Well... Alicorns are basically gods in a sense (Goddesses in this one), and each one represents something in one way or another. But what if I told you, that the princesses were just reincarnations?
    Celestia and Luna represent an element, those being Light and Dark respectfully. While Cadence and Twilight represent emotions of the heart, being Love and Friendship respectfully. Now, if they were at all completely of this nature, they would look completely different, wouldn't they? They would have their bodies match their element, however, they don't, making it be that they aren't the first that they were the bearers of those elements.
    So, let's take a look into the past, FAAAAAAAAAAAAAR back to the beginning of the pony race. Where there was little to nothing. This was where the first four ponies came to existence, the ponies of the elements.
    Water
    Fire
    Earth
    Wind
    Water was a Unicorn, making the first benefit of magic, giving life to the earth below, and making it hard to move.
    Earth, the earth pony, in turn, made the landscape, shaped the world for those to enjoy it, but would be too stubborn to do anything else.
    Wind, the Pegasus, made everything move, giving purpose to everything, however being too cold for many.
    Fire, the confused, brought warmth to the land, making it better for life to sustain, but also causing destruction to what it touched.
    However, those were just the beginning, as fire came to be, so did Light and Dark. Along with life on the land, brought about emotions to share, some of the first being Joy, Friendship, and Love. Friendship believed that it was too powerful by itself, thinking that one wrong move could ruin the world. So, it fell dormant deep into the earth, becoming a seed, which would grow into the Tree of Harmony, bearing the six equally powered gems of Friendship.
    But with the emotions that came first, also came the opposite, such as Discord, Envy, and Fear. These elements have been fighting eachother for generations, each one having a new body to hold, becoming something such as Deer, a Sea Serpent, a Dragon, or perhaps simply a Pony.
    Now, with this newest generation, this is the fourth reincarnation of the elements, bringing harmony, causing mischief... whatever they were. For Light, Dark, Love, and Friendship, they were ponies, like their original selves. For Discord, Wind, and Fear, they took the bodies of a Draconius, Spirits, and a Tyrant. Quite the variety, wouldn't you say?
    But... what about you? What do you think about this little theory of mine? I would love to hear it, it ties in for so many things. But also makes for some unique stories... wouldn't you say? Well, I hope to hear from you all about this, because this is a big idea of mine. My name is Avery, writer extraordinaire, and believer of many things.
    I hope you all have a wonderful day, and a lovely night, until we meet again.

    Hello everyone, Avery here with more ramblings.
    Now, I honestly don't mean to put myself as say a downer, since I feel as if that was the feeling of the last blog post I made. I'm generally a cheerful guy, though my cheerfulness doesn't always show because of family and certain friends... sad as that is. But, I'm getting off topic.
    Now, I've seen several videos of Dr.Wolf, and most of them rock my mind with questions. Usually revolving around myself... since I'm trying to find out what to do at the moment with everything like it is. Because, honestly... I'm not having the best time with figuring out what to do. Especially with a father that kinda looks down on your way of communicating with friends... and such things like that.
    I'm trying to figure out what to do, to keep writing to get noticed, or do something else. Because I dream of sharing the wonders of creativity with the world... and I usually do that with writing, though... I'm scared to.
    I want to share my thoughts and such with the world... but I'm afraid that I'll be kicked to the curb, tossed like just some worthless bag of trash set to burn in a furnace. I really want to share my ideas... But how can I, when my mind just tells me to not do so and save myself from the seemingly unstoppable onslaught of negativity to face?
    I understand that there are negative things out there, but having them ruin your work is not something I want to experience. It'll hurt my already fragile mind. I honestly want people to read my works, give some feedback and everything. Though... I'm scared that it'll be called something of a horrible design, that I can't share the creativity that I want to share.
    ...But why am I thinking like that? Shouldn't I be positive about the reviews I'll get? Or is that just too much to ask for? To be able to not have these fears curse your mind?
    I'm not putting myself up as a way to get views on anything, that'd really be scrapping the bottom of the barrel. I'm just asking... why is this fear running around? I want to share my creations... but this fear is just making me stop in my tracks. Why? Why can't I proceed with what I love to do..?
    *sigh* Sorry, kinda making this into another venting thing. But, I'm really confused. You don't have to pay attention to me with this, I'm just kinda rambling on... also, EXTREMELY hard to type on a phone. I hope I get my computer back.
    I hope you have a wonderful day, and a lovely night, until we meet again.

    Well, hello and greetings from the mind of a person that simply wishes to expand upon a world. My name is Avery, and I decided to make a little blog thing to basically... I'm not sure, just ramble about random things that come to mind? I guess that's what happens around here sometimes, having people post random goings on or story purposes.
    I don't normally do blog type sayings, though I feel that just changing my status isn't a good idea when trying to express something. Like the ever boggling question of joining Canterlot Chronicles, or World of Equestria. I always feel like I should make an effort to make it so that I'm contributing to the community, and that means sharing my ideas with everyone, which I love to do. ...Thing is, it's extremely hard for me to make it so.
    I know there are the certain rules that should be followed so that people won't put in something like an over-the-top character, Like a forgotten Princess of Ice that was trapped within the frozen wastelands of northern Equestria during the tragic loss of the Crystal Empire a thousand years ago. Though there is a lot of potential for a story arc like that, however, people are forced to turn away from CC and WoE because of those rules and only stick with FFA.
    Now, I'm not pushing on the rules at all, though it does put myself at a very deep disadvantage when immersing myself into the world of Equestria. As one of my characters, ironically named Avery, cannot be put into those groups. Because of certain ordeals that I can understand, though it makes me feel guilty that I can't contribute to the community when sitting on the sidelines in FFA. As it seems to be the only place I can... freely do whatever I so desire. Not that I don't mind... though it feels as if I'm missing out on a lot of the RPs that go on, missing out on a lot of the fun moments that I could have.
    I want to join CC and WoE... though I'm forced not to because I won't be as immersed as I want to be. A lot of my other characters, are just... ponies that go about their lives. There's... not a lot to do with a stubborn Gemspony, an isolated Violinist, and a stuck up Drama Queen. I do have one other present character... a Changeling... though he's never going to see the light of day just like Avery won't. Though I have these other characters I could use... I only made them because I felt that it would be good to introduce them someway in the future.
    My mind is still trying to recover from my two year avoidance of the fandom in and of itself, so their personalities besides the mains that I worked heavily on are almost non-existent. But I still want to join in with everyone else... but how can I with barely any characters to really use?
    *sigh* Now, I know you might be thinking "So... why don't you work on those characters as well?" I would, and I should... if not for the fact that I can't stay on one topic for long. It's hard for me to keep to one topic and be happy with it, I usually need a friend to help me along... else I get depressed. All of these characters I have a basic storyline for, and that's all you really need for a good character... it's just that I'm trying to make a connection with them again. Having that connection is what truly makes RP so fun.
    Though, it puts me in a valley of right and wrong. Each cliff looks the same, so which one am I supposed to climb in order to climb out safely? Should I risk being depressed in order to have another character to work with? Or should I just wait for another day? Or should I just forget it and work on something else? It's just so much on my mind, too much to just calm down and work.
    I've been trying to restrict myself to one fandom at a time... though it seems that I can't sway away from others. There's too many stories to be told, to be shared, and I want to expand upon the worlds that I see, to give more creativity to people. I... that... *sigh* I just don't know what to do with trying to join in with either CC or WoE, because it's really hard just to get the one character that I want to use to explore that world so that I can be immersed to the best that I can be.
    Oh well, I chose this. Avery's an Alicorn, I'm not changing that fact. Son of Celestia to explain why he's an Alicorn, and him being missing for the past so many years to explain why he wasn't mentioned before. Forgotten and lost, almost never to be heard or seen from again. That's... part of the story I laid down in stone, and it took 5 years to make it perfect. Nothing too bad, nothing too good, nothing to make it out of character, everything is in it's right place.
    ...I should stop before I make this into a story time segment, heheh. Anyway, I'm just rambling here, you don't have to listen. Just letting out steam that's built up so it doesn't bust my brain.
    I hope you have a wonderful day, and a lovely night, until we meet again.
