Earth pony Ivypool?

Local 1/4 zony teen is

terrified

the local towns are besieged by umbrum infected ponies, she just got CURED of being one of them, her father Birch Branch just turned into a monster and ran off into the woods, her sister Mourning Dove is maybe possessed?!? By some ghostly magic spirit thing claiming Dove is going to be an ALICORN!?! Mayor Flaming Comet claims everything is under control but it's NOT!!!

And Ivy doesn't know WHAT her talent is, but she screams to the moon for help

and a princess, one who knows what it's like to be the overlooked sister, answers

I think my beta and I need therapy

There’s a discolored rock on the left here. I wonder if this is the switch?

*As the hidden doors swing open, you feel the faintest breeze coming from the other side. It all seems familiar to when you first came down here. Destino takes a step back, their face filled with anger and betrayal..*

*You notice Destino pause.

“You know those dreams of yours are just silly. There’s no way you’d be able to get to the surface. You must stop thinking about it as a possibility. We would have sent our people up there by now if it was possible.”

“Stop these childish games. You are next in line to rule and you want to pretend to go to the surface? What a stupid idea. Only foolish Pokémon would dream of trying to go up there. You don’t want to be a foolish Pokémon, do you?”

“My child, you must end this foolishness. The surface is filled with fairy types, the cruelest Pokémon of them all. They would kill you if you ever found a way up there. End these ridiculous dreams before I have to silence you myself.”

The echoes of what their parents said to them bounce around in their head. Always being told that their dream of going up there was ridiculous. Always being told it was impossible. Always being told it was a stupid dream for stupid Pokémon. They doubted what everyone was saying about a tunnel to the surface being true. They doubted that their parents would actually lie to them.

But…

Right in front of Destino was the very thing that they claimed to be impossible. A tunnel. A tunnel that goes to the surface. The tunnel they said they would use to bring their subjects up there. What logical reason would their parents have to lie to them? The evidence was clear. It was right there in front of them.

It was all too much.

So very much.

Destino couldn’t take it. All these lies. All of this responsibility that fell onto them. Why did it have to be them? Why? That was so much effort. Perhaps they could just forget they ever saw anything and continue lying to themselves? Claim they had no idea what anyone was talking about and continue to live their life, relaxing in the throne they would eventually claim for themselves.

But they couldn’t do that. They had to do what needed to be done. Go to the surface and save the world. Finally believe what everyone was saying. Destino hated this.*

Destino: I guess it’s time to head to the one Pokémon who I know can help me out with a disguise for heading up there.

*Will you follow Destino to this mysterious Pokémon?*

Sooooo Narcistoru's motivation on hating food was pretty much because he's extremely picky eater. Geez. Kinda interesting that he found something he actually liked and had a clear sudden change of heart due to it.

Like the moment he learns that GENTLU was the one who made those candies he came to like, he kinda became... nice. Amane ofc didn't forgive him, but saw that he deserves to have fair justice? I liked that.

The world exists in such a baffling state of simultaneous sex-aversion and sex-hegemony. Every social platform on the internet is trying to banish sex workers to the shadow realm but I can't post a tweet without at least two bots replying P U S S Y I N B I O. People are self-censoring sex to seggs and $3× but every other ad you see is still filled with half-naked women. Rightwingers want queer people arrested for so much as existing in the same postal code as a child and are also drumming up a moral panic about how teenage boys aren't getting laid enough. I feel like I'm losing my mind.

I just saw a theatre almost entirely full of men very audibly gasp and/or moan at the site of a shirtless Hugh Jackman and let me tell you if was a religious experience

Some writers: *meticulously plan out every plot point and the tone and meanings before they start writing*

Me:

[thechekhov]

I've had this little idea in my head for a while now, so I decided to sit down and plot it out.

Disclaimer: This isn't meant to be some sort of One-Worksheet-Fits-All situation. This is meant to be a visual representation of some type of story planning you could be doing in order to develop a plot!

Lay down groundwork! (Backstory integral to the beginning of your story.) Build hinges. (Events that hinge on other events and fall down like dominoes) Suspend structures. (Withhold just enough information to make the reader curious, and keep them guessing.)

And hey, is this helps... maybe sit down and write a story! :)
