Raikissu Interview
Hello again everyone/pony. Today the queen herself raikissu has had an interview done.
Please read and enjoy
Blog Talk: Could you tell our readers your name, age and place you call home?
Raikissu: My username in most websites is just Raikissu, but a lot of people just call me Rai. I'm nineteen years old, and I live in Canada (:
Blog Talk: Is it a good place to live?
Raikissu: Yeah! it's pretty nice, here. Although I could go without the harsh winters here..
Blog Talk: Being 19 are you in school or working?
Raikissu: At the moment I'm not in any type of higher education, just working at home and saving up for things in the future (:
Blog Talk: What's your social life like way from tumblr?
Raikissu: away from tumblr? I'm not sure if I even have a social life aside from that website! But all jokes aside, my social life could be better, could be worse. I have only a hand full of friends outside of the internet that I try to keep in touch with.
Blog Talk: How long have you been drawing (or any other form of art)?
Raikissu: I've been drawing ever since I could pick up a pencil. My brother was the one who inspired me to work on my art work more and I only began working with a mouse digitally when I was twelve years old.
Blog Talk: When did you start drawing MLPFIM and related pictures?
Raikissu: only last year! My boyfriend began watching the show regularly, so I decided to join him. Soon I found myself drawing little ponies and developing my style.
Blog Talk: What was your first episode?
Raikissu: My first episode was well, the first episode of MLP. We started right at the beginning and made our way up to the season 2 episodes.
Blog Talk: What was your favorite episode?
Raikissu: I don't know the titles to episodes, so bear with me. It has to be a tie between the episode where Pinkie thinks she's lost all her friends, or the episode where Fluttershy becomes a super star.
Blog Talk: Who's best pony?
Raikissu: If we're talking canon ponies, then Pinkie Pie. But if we're talking about any pony in Equestira, DJ PON3.
Blog Talk: Who's worst pony?
Raikissu: People are going to dislike me for this answer BUT, Rainbow Dash. I just can't stand her attitude towards most situations the mane 6 have to solve.
Blog Talk: favorite antagonist?
Raikissu: Chrysalis. I absolutely love her character design and how she manipulates ponies with her shape-shifting powers.
Blog Talk: Could you tell our readers about your blog(s) on tumblr?
Raikissu: Sure! Well, I have only two ask blogs that are more for answering questions. I do have a third one, but that's just a doodle blog. Anyways, The biggest one that most people know me by is AskMLCblobs.
I've been running that blog for over a year now, and currently been updating it every day (and hopefully it stays that way, too!)
There's not a lot of things to it, really. It's just a parody blog wrapped in cuteness and diabetes.
My other ask blog is Chrysalis-Replies. Like I explained in the last question, I love Chrysalis as a villain and a design. However, the blog has been on hiatus for quite some time, and I don't think I'll be rebooting it until I have a clear idea on what I would like to do in further updates.
Blog Talk: What's your tumblr social life like?
Raikissu: It's alright! I have loads of friends that I absolutely love. Unfortunately, it is rather hard to keep in touch with them on a daily basis with things like skype and steam, but I've been trying to keep a habit in checking up on them from time to time.
Blog Talk: Has there been any events (good or bad) that stand out from all others while on tumblr?
Raikissu: Honestly, the entire trip through tumblr has been one big awesome event for me. There's nothing that stands out to me as one stand-alone moment, just a long, amazing year. Well, actually, if I could pick out just one event, I'd say it was when I first started AskMLCblobs. The amount of positive feedback I received that night was amazing!
Blog Talk: Ok time is running out. Is there anything you'd like to say to our readers before we go?
Raikissu: Well, I'd like to take this time to tell any new ask bloggers out there that's wanting any advice -- just be yourself, and don't worry about the amount of followers you have. I have a lot of people ask me questions like "How do I become popular?" or "What do I do to make people like me?"
Well, just be yourself! Really! That's all you have to do. Don't worry so much on being popular, or wanting some kids to notice you. Just have fun. That's what I did! (:

Stitches The Goat Interview
Hello again everyone/pony. Another Interview today and this one has a goat...A GOAT!!! GuyS!!! A GOAT!!! stitches-the-goat
Please read and enjoy
Blog Talk: Could you tell our readers your, name, age and the place you call home?
Jenn whywouldyoudothat: Hi! The name's Jenn, I’m 21, and I -reluctantly- call Florida my home
Blog Talk: Is Florida a good place to live?
Jenn whywouldyoudothat: hah nah, not in my opinion, its always too hot or too rainy :/ and then we have random zombie outbreaks in Miami and people eat each other’s faces off. lol i don’t recommend vacationing here :/
Blog Talk: Being 21 are you working or in school?
Jenn whywouldyoudothat: I’m currently in school, going for an animation major, and minor in painting. Just got accepted to SCAD! Or Savannah College of Art and Design, I’m excited!
Blog Talk: what's your social life like away from the computer?
Jenn whywouldyoudothat: haha, well in my time off, i do art shows in local bars, cafes, galleries, nothing too big. i have a lot of art type friends. all traditional though. so i often go to art show openings when i have nothing else to do. or just have tea with the ladies~~
Blog Talk: how long have you been drawing (or any other sort of art)?
Jenn whywouldyoudothat: Well, I’ve been drawing ever since i could grasp a pencil! But my true love will always be oil paintings~ i love painting way more than just drawing... There's so much more involved. and I like that its such a slow process. there’s no pressure. cuz oil paint takes weeks and weeks to dry. But i literally just started doing digital stuff on a tablet about 4 months ago. I actually started the Stitches blog just to learn how to use it.... because im absolutely terrible with technology. ive been avoiding it for a while now haha
Blog Talk: How long have you been drawing mlpfim or related pictures?
Jenn whywouldyoudothat: Probably the same amount of time with the tablet, about 4 months. I come from a fine arts background, cartoons were looked down upon. So i went to the animation side... so i have the ability but need to learn the tech part. An old crush actually introduced me to mlp fim haha. And even though it didnt work out for us "romantically" i love the show and I’ve made a lot of friends through it. The last four months has been very pony filled. :D
Blog Talk: what was your first mlpfim episode?
Jenn whywouldyoudothat: The Diamond Dogs episode! :3
Blog Talk: Is it your favorite episode?
Jenn whywouldyoudothat: hmmm it’s hard to say. i like so many.... I'd have to saw the Sisterhood Social one is my favorite -rarity is best pony-
Blog Talk: What make rarity best pony?
Jenn whywouldyoudothat: I think the has a lot of depth to her character, in all honesty. So she can locate gems. But that's not her main calling, she is a fashionista! And she must create! I like that about her because I can relate :D
Blog Talk: favorite antagonist?
Jenn whywouldyoudothat: Chrysalis, hands down.
Blog Talk: what makes her stand out from the other villains?
Jenn whywouldyoudothat: Hah i just really liked her design, and the music that accompanied that story.
Blog Talk: Favorite background pony?
Jenn whywouldyoudothat: Viiinnnyyyllll scratch/ octavia cuz i can’t pick which i like better~
Blog Talk: Favorite song from the show?
Jenn whywouldyoudothat: hmm... this day aria
Blog Talk: What about it made it the best?
Jenn whywouldyoudothat: it had such a great score. I’ve heard a bunch of instrumental remakes of it and they are gorgeous.
Blog Talk: So tell our readers about your blog(s)
Jenn whywouldyoudothat: Well there's Stitches-the-goat, my OC ask blog. stitches is basically me as a goat. I like goats ... a lot. so yeah, i didn’t want to be a pony lol. And i also have a mod blog, which is mostly art reblogs, my own personal art, and a lot of pastel goth stuff... I don’t know why. but that's at thegoatsarewatching.tumblr.com
Blog Talk: what's your tumblr social life like? Any friends?
Jenn whywouldyoudothat: I’ve made a number of fantastic friends through Stitches' blog! A lot of people who are really nice and lovely and help me get through all the technical difficulties. People had to teach me how to stream ^^; so i am really happy to have met them all! And as for the mod blow, i just have all these hipsters follow me... and they don’t like to talk or socialize or interact with other humans, ive come to realize :/
Blog Talk: What are some major highlight (good or bad) that you've had on tumblr?
Jenn whywouldyoudothat: I'd say i was pretty happy when artists like Pig-fish (or now magnifryer) or monstrnoir (stripey mod) started following me. I absolutely adooore their work and i feel that i can learn a lot from other artists on here. I know i certainly have learned a lot so far in this short amount of time! ^^;
Blog Talk: what are your future plans for stitches? What do you hope to accomplish in the next few months?
Jenn whywouldyoudothat: Well, i just got done with a month long parade of doing gift art for all the blogs that inspired me to make stitches! And now i have some plans for a possible story arc that isn’t too serious, just something fun to do. And to just continue to make people happy :D
Blog Talk: Do you think you've improved at what you do since you began tumblr?
Jenn whywouldyoudothat: oh yes indeed! i had zero experience in drawing anything cartoony and drawing it on a tablet - which turns out to be suuuper different from traditional stuff. it was a huge learning process. i feel that my stuff looks a lot cleaner and i know how to work the programs better ^^; i really was just a few steps away from being basically Amish. :V
Blog Talk: ok time is running out, is there anything you'd wish to say to our readers before we go?
Jenn whywouldyoudothat: Thanks for being so welcoming and awesome! and showing me the ropes! I really appreciate every single one of you and lets just all group hug and be best frans 5ever! <3 <3 THANKSSSS! xoxo

Blog Talk: How long have you been drawing for?
Sparky: Oh man. Since I could hold a crayon without wanting to eat it.
Blog Talk: what got you into drawing mlp fim?
Sparky: I've always liked drawing ponies. I had a bit of a soft spot for the older generations, and when I saw they had revamped the show and it had a mass artistic following, I knew I had to jump on in!

Blog Talk: With events both good and bad, any highlights of your time on tumblr that raises above the others?
Sparky: When Nowler started following me was one. He was pretty much my sempai. And when Klondike fiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinally guessed that "Spurs Hollow" is a Gilmore Girls reference. But the best part so far was starting my first story arc, and starting my collab with Pitch Patch. <3

Ask Sea Swirl Interview
Hello again everyone/pony It's been a while. Today we have the wonderful blog ask-seaswirl check it out my friends.
Please read and enjoy
Blog Talk: Could you tell our readers your name, age and the place you call home?
Whimsy Morning: My name is Adam, and I'm 29-years-old. I actually just moved from Arizona to Alabama, though I'm planning on moving again in the next few months.
Blog Talk: Is your current home a good place to live?
Whimsy Morning: Well, I grew up in the area, so it feels very comfortable to me, and it is. But, I think I'm better suited to a somewhat more urban environment.
Blog Talk: Being 29 are you in working or in school?
Whimsy Morning: I actually JUST finished serving in the military, where I did computer networking. I have a degree in the field, but I'm going to be going back to school to upgrade my degree before getting back into the workforce.
Blog Talk: What are you hoping to get into?
Whimsy Morning: Programming is where most of my fervor is, so I'd like to end up in a job that entails that. If we're talking dream jobs, I am very into game design, but any kind of programming is fun for me, really.
Blog Talk: what's your life like away from the computer?
Whimsy Morning: I do a lot of traditional drawing, reading, and writing, even away from the computer! But I do also like to get together with friends during evenings and weekends, and I go hiking now and then. I also went to my first brony meet-up about a week ago. Very fun!
Blog Talk: How was the brony meet up for you?
Whimsy Morning: It was rather small, but the attendees were all very friendly and intelligent. We went to a restaurant and to the movies - there was actually very little pony involved outside of the opening small talk! But that's probably a testament to how comfortable it was. I'm definitely looking forward to trying another!
Blog Talk: How long have you been drawing and writing for?
Whimsy Morning: I don't remember ever not drawing. My older brothers draw based on comic books, so I was copying them in that from a very young age. I switched over to anime in high school, and since then, have been trying to branch out a lot more. I only started digital art in 2010, though.
Blog Talk: what got you drawing mlpfim and related pictures?
Whimsy Morning: I wanted to give something back to the fandom, and it seemed the best way for me to go about it. The first ponies I ever drew were actually for EQD's 2011 X-Mas banner contest, though I ended up not finishing it!
Blog Talk: when and how did you get into mlpfim?
Whimsy Morning: I watched G1 with my younger sister growing up, and liked it fine. Then, in early 2011, I was on a forum I frequent and saw someone complaining about how cartoons "for girls" in the 1980s only had plots about styling hair and baking. Wanting to prove them wrong, I began digging up Youtube clips of some of my favorite G1 scenes, and stumbled upon G4 by accident! I got hooked pretty quickly, after some initial wariness.
Blog Talk: Out of G4 who's best pony?
Whimsy Morning: It simply must be Rarity. She refined and sassy, while still being friendly and funny. I admire her dedication to her work/art, but I probably like her most for being a small town pony that strives to be classy in spite of it. It reminds me of myself when I was younger.
Blog Talk: Who's worst pony?
Whimsy Morning: I'm about to lose all of my followers, but I'm going to say Luna. I really admire and respect Celestia for running Equestria so well for so long, doing both her job AND her sister's for 1000 years. Yet, she's totally overshadowed in the fanbase by Luna, simply due to her tragic backstory. In the series, Luna felt ignored because everyone loved Celestia. Ironically, the situation is reversed in the fandom. I want to see Celestia get some love!
Blog Talk: favorite antagonist?
Whimsy Morning: It's tough, but I guess I'll say Queen Chrysalis. Most of the villains are very direct with the heroes, presenting themselves to them and stating their intentions. Though Chrysalis does that once she's been found out, I like that she spends so long trying to be sneaky and behind-the-scenes with her villainy.
Blog Talk: favorite canon background pony?
Whimsy Morning: Probably Lyra, honestly. She and Sea Swirl were my two favorite background ponies before I really got into the fandom. When I DID get into the fandom, I found tons of great stuff about Lyra, that made me really love her, but nothing about Sea Swirl, hence the Tumblr.
Blog Talk: Favorite episode?
Whimsy Morning: A Friend In Deed. I love the felt stop-motion, Cranky's 8mm film flashback, and the Yankee Doodle musical motifs during the episode and closing credits. Pinkie also always annoyed me a little, so it was hilarious seeing Cranky feeling that until it got bad enough that he was terrified by her very presence. But, even so, the episode totally reversed my opinion on Pinkie with the incredible "Smile" song. When I stopped to think that all of her antics might not just her uncontrollable hyperactive nature, but also a conscious effort from her to make her friends smile, I gained a newfound fondness for the character.
Blog Talk: Favorite brony made song?
Whimsy Morning: That's a very tough question. I listen to so much, and have so many favorites. Aviators, Bagpipe Brony, ElectroKaplosion, TripleBlueShell... I do feel that I should mention Vivix, though. He has an indie rock style that I really love, but he's almost totally unknown in the fandom. I really like his songs "The Great and Powerful" and "A Dragon." But I have hundreds of brony songs, so picking one's impossible for me.
Blog Talk: could you tell our readers about your blog(s) on tumblr?
Whimsy Morning: Ask-seaswirl is a story about one of the lesser known background ponies, with an aquatic cutie mark, who ironically finds herself alone in a flooded Equestria. The story is set several years after the flood, and meant to be an adventure story about her trying to find the cause of the flood and put a stop to it, with questions from viewers as the framing. It's been pretty heavily sidetracked so far, but I still plan on eventually getting there.
Blog Talk: Do you interact with other blogs?
Whimsy Morning: I LOVE interacting with other blogs! In the world of Tumblrpon, ask-sea-foam has been declared Sea Swirl's twin sister, while askdolphindream is their cousin, and I attended the Tumblr Pony Prom with ask-staccato, to name just a few. I don't want to let blog crossovers sidetrack things too much, but some brief crossovers are always fun.
Blog Talk: Ok time is running out is there anything you wish to say to our reader?
Whimsy Morning: I'd like to offer some advice to other people trying to run ask-tumblrs. I think anyone running a comic-style blog, regardless of whether they want a lot of followers or not, should make sure their story works without any. I see a lot of ponies out there asking their followers for questions, and they have none because there's nothing to ask about! Give your pony a life, and a world, and put people and objects around it. Plan on telling your own story - then people will want to ask about it. That said, if you do have followers that are being active, don't be afraid to let them sidetrack things a bit, and don't get frustrated if they don't give you the questions you want - that's part of the fun! And try something new every update, that way you'll know that even if you don't get any new followers from it, at least you grew a little as an artist!

The Sober Berry Punch Interview
Well hello everyone, Today Todd the mod of sober-berry-punch was interviewed.
Please read and enjoy.
Blog Talk: Could you tell our readers your names, age and the place you call home?
Sporky Berry: My name is Todd Miles, I'm 25 and I live in Phoenix Arizona.
Blog Talk: Is it a good place to live?
Sporky Berry: Only if you like the heat. A lot of people vacation here a lot to escape the shiver of the northern states and to thaw out.
Blog Talk: being 25 are you still in school?, working? None of the above?
Sporky Berry: None of the above, unfortunately. I'm thinking about going to school again because there are pretty much no jobs to apply at anymore.
Blog Talk: what would you consider your dream job?
Sporky Berry: My dream job would be doing anything with computers. I've been working with computers since I was 14 and now I run an out of home "business" and sell them to be able to get by.
Blog Talk: what's your life like away from the computer? any friends?, hobbies?
Sporky Berry: Oh yes. I run an Anime club every Sunday. And I attend a lot of Brony meet ups as well. Although joining this fandom made a lot of my friends confused on why I like cartoon ponies, they stayed my friends and just tolerated my pony talk.
Blog Talk: when did you start drawing?
Sporky Berry: I started drawing back in 6th grade. I was very engrossed with '90's anime and the Slayers was a big monolith for me. I would draw Lina Inverse all the time, using a picture at the side as my base.
Blog Talk: when did you first get into mlpfim? and would that be about the same time you started drawing mlpfim and related pictures?
Sporky Berry: Actually, no it wouldn't. I got into the show around May last year. I fell asleep watching the '60's Batman and woke up to MLP FIM. At first, I didn't want to see it, but it was one of those mornings where I couldn't move for a good 15 minutes and the remote was about three feet away from me. But after, I was enjoying it a lot and I didn't know why until I found out that Lauran Faust worked on it. The time I started drawing for the show was around November of last year. When I got my first Bamboo tablet.
Blog Talk: what was your first episode of mlpfim?
Sporky Berry: Surprisingly enough, it was episode 1 of season 1. A lot of people kept telling me that it wasn't the best episode, but I keep disagreeing. I mean, if it wasn't good, why am I in the fandom now?
Blog Talk: who's best pony?
Sporky Berry: Cheerilee.
Blog Talk: what makes her best pony?
Sporky Berry: It's because she has a passion for teaching to not only her students, but to everyone she meets. And since the fandom has grouped and/or placed her in Berry Punch's family, it puts more perspective on her that she can continue to keep a level head with a drunken sister and a hyperactive niece.
Blog Talk: who's worst pony?
Sporky Berry: Really, I'm asked that every day. And I still can't decide. Not because there are a lot. But the fandom has changed my view on it. A long time ago, I would have said Trixie. But now she is my Yu-Gi-Oh card protector on my side bag. Now, I can't say that anypony is worse than the other.
Blog Talk: favorite episode?
Sporky Berry: Hearts and Hooves Day.
Blog Talk: favorite antagonist?
Sporky Berry: Gilda.
Blog Talk: why?
Sporky Berry: I used to play Dungeons and Dragons a lot when I was younger. While everyone else had a steed as a mount, I had a Gryphon. So I always had a soft spot for Gryphons. And the way that they portrayed Gilda as a jerk was fantastic, because it takes a lot for someone to gain the trust and respect from a Gryphon.
Blog Talk: favorite song from the show?
Sporky Berry: Smile Smile Smile.
Blog Talk: what makes it your favorite?
Sporky Berry: Because I see that as one of my own goals in life. I work hard for a smile, especially from someone that's having a bad day. So I can relate to it a lot. "There is one thing that makes me happy, and makes my whole life worthwhile! And that's when I talk to a friend and make them Smile~!" And for me, it's always true.
Blog Talk: Your blogs on tumblr, could you tell us about them. how many you have, the names and how long they've been around for?
Sporky Berry: Well, I've ran Sober Berry Punch for about 3 months now. It came into being after I stopped working on Slayer Ponies and after my friend had to send me a new stylus pen. It started after trying to find ideas for a new blog while on Drunk Celestia's page and getting a butt load of inspiration. And then I have my MOD blog found here: http://sbp-mod.tumblr.com where I post random drawings and update sketches. And a side project that I don't really promote enough because it was just a bit of a test on crossovers called Abducted Braeburn: http://abducted-braeburn.tumblr.com/ that is based off of the movie "Cowboys and Aliens". I plan on making an OC blog soon, because I want to practice on a few other things that I can't do with Berry, her being an Earth pony and all. And finally, since I'm a really big Sonic The Hedgehog fan, I might start a blog around that as well, I just have to think of who I'm going to draw for it.
Blog Talk: Do you interact with other blogs?
Sporky Berry: Yes, a lot of blogs. Currently, one of the main ones is Meanie Belle. But I plan on working with Drunk Celestia more and Scootabot hopefully. Then there are a lot of other collabs that I'm looking forward to as well. One of them is including Rough Sketch.
Blog Talk: Where do you hope to see your blogs months from now?
Sporky Berry: Well, really I hope to see my art skills increase more than they already have. I have learned a lot from a lot of other artists, but the main thing is trying to learn more from myself. And in any given months, I want to see people list out the Berry Punch blogs and have my name amongst them, even if they don't have a Tumblr.
Blog Talk: alright we are running out of time, do you have anything to say to our readers before we go?
Sporky Berry: Thanks for taking the time to read this and keep being awesome, guys~!

Kid Discord Interview
Hello Everone/pony Today we have a cute blog just for you guys! Kid Discord
Please read and enjoy
Blog Talk: Could you tell our readers your name, age and the place you call home?
Twyla (Kid Discord): Well, my name is Twyla and I'm eighteen. My home is found within the magical land known as Illinois, in a dinky little town close to Chicago.
Blog Talk: Is it a good place to live?
Twyla (Kid Discord): The town's rather wonderful for the most part, although it's a bit small. I'm rather lucky as our house is relatively close to the areas where I like to hang out: the park, pool, and library. The only problem I can think is that it's really close to an airport so there are always airplanes blasting through the sky really loudly. There's never really much of a moment of quiet due to that, but I've lived here all my life so I'm pretty much used to it by now.
Blog Talk: What's your life like away from the computer? Any friends? Hobbies?
Twyla (Kid Discord): Most of the time it's just school that saps up most of my excess time. Otherwise I usually try to drag my friends out of their respective homes to go do something. Although, I only have a few really close friends here to go do that with. For the most part, my hobby is art. I love all mediums, but photorealism, ceramics, and cartooning are my favorite things to do.
Blog Talk: What classes in school do you excel in?
Twyla (Kid Discord): I honestly do rather well in all of my classes so far. I usually get the same grades, or pretty darn close to the same grades, in all of them in the end. My parents have conditioned me to be a bit of a nerd. Calculus and Spanish tend to give me a lot trouble though. My favorite classes, however, are of the science variety, especially Biology. There's something about me learning about the pure world around us that makes me just so interested with it.
Blog Talk: So what are your plans for after High school?
Twyla (Kid Discord): I'm definitely going to college after high school ends. I'm planning to be a doctor in the future or have some sort of job in the medical field, so I'm going to need all the schooling I can get in order to get those degrees. No matter how long it ends up taking me.
Blog Talk: So being a doctor is your dream job?
Twyla (Kid Discord): Indeed it is~! I like the idea of having a job where I can help people every day. That and the science field, as I've said, interest me in general. So it seems like the perfect job I can go for.
Blog Talk: How long have you been drawing for?
Twyla (Kid Discord): I loved drawing ever since I was a wee child, but I truly got into it when I entered into the sixth grade. Even so, my art has been improving greatly since then and now, especially within this year.
Blog Talk: how long have you been drawing mlp fim and related things?
Twyla (Kid Discord): Ever since the start of the second season. I've known of MLP a bit beforehand but I've never really had any good ideas art wise for it, nor did I really end up watching much of the first season. Mostly because I found the fandom about a month before the second season started. After that I've been drawing it rather constantly, mixed in with my other various doodles during school.
Blog Talk: Who's Best pony?
[8:25:57 PM] Twyla (Kid Discord): Ooooh, a toughie~! Hmm, lemmie see.....If I had to pick one pony, it'd have to be Pinkie Pie. She's just so full of life, moxie, and happiness that watching her just automatically puts a smile on my face. It makes me wish I could have her personality sometimes. I also find her gags rather funny as well. Plus her design is adorable, poofy, and really fun to draw in my opinion~! Although this one's a really close tie with the rest of the Mane Six. They all have reasons to be the best pony, but Pinkie's pretty much the best in my eyes.
Blog Talk: Who's worst pony?
Twyla (Kid Discord): Woah, now we're digging into the deep questions, aren't we? Honestly, I really can't think of anypony as the worst, as all of them have their own quirks and faults as well as their general personality. If I had to give an answer, I'd have to say Rarity, but only for the reason that a few of the episodes centering her, ended up with her disappointing or throwing her friends and family under the bus. But this is just a general pet peeve, not like freakish hate or anything. She's just lowest on my list.
Blog Talk: Favorite antagonist?
Twyla (Kid Discord): Is this a trick question...? Of course Discord~! Everything about him in his two episodes interest me to no end. His character design is wonderful and amazingly unique, although really difficult to draw most of the time. His personality is also awesome as well. So for the most part I like everything about him. They made his character really awesome. Second place would have to be Chrysalis though, and only because of her design and evil plot to be honest.
Blog Talk: Favorite Minor antagonist ?
Twyla (Kid Discord): Ah, I’m going to have to say Diamond Tiara, only because we really see the most of her. I’m well aware she's mean and an overall jerk to the Cutie Mark Crusaders, but she often piques my interest as well. She also has her moments of cuteness hidden under all that quasi-evil emanating from her.
Blog Talk: Favorite non pony character?
Twyla (Kid Discord): I'd have to say Spike, just because he's so darn adorable most of the time. Plus he's a wonderful assistant to Twilight considering his age as well as a bunch of character development for him as well. He's not just her assistant, he has his own little plot threads and seems to be Twilight's voice of reason. So they seem to look out for each other.
Blog Talk: Favorite episode?
Twyla (Kid Discord): I would have to say the ending of season two. The ending was plenty amusing. We get to see the mane six open up a can of battle ready might against a swarm of shape shifters, epic looking new villain, wonderful songs, beautiful animation, and an all-around good ending to the second season. Although the way Chrysalis was defeated was a bit cheesy in the end, it still ended on a positive note.
Blog Talk: Favorite mlpfim song?
Twyla (Kid Discord): I honestly don't really care much for the songs in the show to be quite honest. I do listen to a few of them on occasion, but I prefer the fan interpretations of them more. The one song I really love though is "Love is in Bloom" because it's just so happily upbeat and rather fun to listen to. Plus it's more of my style of music for the most part.
Blog Talk: who's your favorite brony music artist and song?
Twyla (Kid Discord): I love a LOT of songs from the brony community, so that's another toughie, but I would have to say it's Super Ponybeat's "This day Aria (Changeling mix)". I honestly don't have many favorite artists per say, due to me liking a whole bunch of songs from a bunch of different people but I can think of two right off the bat. One of them is SherclopPonies and whatever song ends up coming out of Friendship is Witchcraft, they are all so wonderful and fun to listen to. The other artist is Deltabrony, or KingSpartaX37 on youtube, who makes a bunch of really good video game-esque instrumentals as well as mixing FiM songs with video game tracks, which I love to listen to all the time.
Blog Talk: Ok so how many tumblr blogs do you have?
Twyla (Kid Discord): I have two of them. Ask Kid Discord (http://ask-kid-discord.tumblr.com/) is my main one for the most part, as I spend the most time working on that one and have the most fun doing so. I do have another one though; Lavender Swirls Says (http://lavenderswirlsays.tumblr.com/), which is pretty much my mod blog, mixed with a general MLP art blog and a mini ask blog if I get any questions for it. I haven't been using it for much yet though.
Blog Talk: how long have they been around?
Twyla (Kid Discord): This message has been removed.
Twyla (Kid Discord): Ask Kid Discord's been around since about late June or early July, I'm unsure of the exact date, never usually end up keeping track of those kind of things. I created Lavender Swirls Says in about late August
Blog Talk: Do you participate in the tumblr pon community?
Twyla (Kid Discord): I believe I do, or at least I'm trying my hardest to do so anyway. I wasn't here for most of the events that already happened, but I'm scrambling to finish a bunch of panels towards the whole Nightmare Night event going on this month. Other than that, I do a few blog crossovers and am doing mini collab with Ask-Discord-Master-of-Chaos. The only other thing I can think of are livestreams, which help me get to know the community more once that stumble into my streams.
Blog Talk: Alright we're running out of time But before we go do you have anything to say to our readers?
Twyla (Kid Discord): Thank you ALL! I love you all, I really do~! Fweeeee~!

The Sketchy Interview
Hello everyone/pony here's another interview. This time we have Matt the mod behind the NSFW blog sketchy-replies, ask-stitches a SFW blog and a couple of others noted in the interview.
Note:The interview does NOT have any NSFW pictures in it.
Please read and enjoy
Blog Talk: Could you tell our readers you name, age and the place you call home?
Dr. Beard (Sketchy-mod): My name's Matt, I'm 18 years old, and I live in New Zealand, home to hobbits and sheep.
Blog Talk: What's it like in New Zealand? is it a good place to live?
Dr. Beard (Sketchy-mod): It's pretty nice, lovely weather, people here are pretty relaxed about things and the sights are beautiful.
Blog Talk: Being 18 are you in school or working?
Dr. Beard (Sketchy-mod): Just out of school, in university now doing a bachelors in Computer Sciences, so Networking and the like. I have a small part time job in an electronics/gaming store, so that's pretty sweet.
Blog Talk: what would be your "dream job"?
Dr. Beard (Sketchy-mod): Hmm, I guess it'd be something within the realms of IT, lots of pay yet a lot of freedom to do what I'd want. It'd still be rewarding to do, and wouldn't feel like a job when I do it, which would be great. Maybe something with graphical design, I'm not entirely sure.
Blog Talk: What's your life like away from the computer?
Dr. Beard (Sketchy-mod): Well, I spend a lot of time on the computer, chatting to people around the world and drawing ponies, so, life away from it is basically filled with sleeping and going out places to meet up with friends. Not quite as 'action packed' as my online life can be.
Blog Talk: when did you start drawing?
Dr. Beard (Sketchy-mod): Doodling and stuff since I was as young as I can really remember, my grandma would collect my drawings in a box to show me on my 21st. But, in terms of tablet drawing I guess, I received my tablet as a Christmas present last year, and have been drawing basically everyday on it since then, so, I've been tabletting for just under 9 months now, and I can definitely see an improvement since I first began.
Blog Talk: when did you start drawing mlpfim and related things?
Dr. Beard (Sketchy-mod): Around about the same time as receiving my tablet, though a little earlier. I did try doing some doodles on paper about a month or so after finding out about ponies. My style has changed a lot since then though, nowadays my ponies look more like long necked dogs with big ears than ponies, at least according to my dad.
Blog Talk: When did you first get into mlpfim?
Dr. Beard (Sketchy-mod): Oh man, that was a while back, I think it was around the time Call of the Cutie came out episode wise. I first saw it on a porn site to be honest, browsing and kept seeing ponies pop up. I thought it was a troll or something, but there was a lot of it. So I thought, "Why not?" And gave it a go, nearly gave up before the intro was finished, but I'm glad I stuck with it.
Blog Talk: who's best pony?
Dr. Beard (Sketchy-mod): Everypony's best pony!
Dr. Beard (Sketchy-mod): But of canon, I like Pinkie Pie of the Mane 6 the most, and Lyra Heartstrings of the background ponies.
Blog Talk: who's worst pony?
Dr. Beard (Sketchy-mod): Tssssss. I don't like thinking about worst ponies. Hmmm, I don't really think there are worst ponies, but Prince Blueblood got on my nerves a lot.
Blog Talk: why?
Dr. Beard (Sketchy-mod): Well, just the way he disrespected Rarity as a lady and was rather self-consumed. Rarity's only just behind Pinkie in terms of favourite pony, and I generally don't like people like Blueblood.
Blog Talk: favorite non pony character?
Dr. Beard (Sketchy-mod): Spike or Gummy, off the top of my head. Dem reptiles are cold blooded balls of cuteness.
Blog Talk: favorite antagonist?
Dr. Beard (Sketchy-mod): Discord. Hands down. Chaotically crazy, great voice actor and just generally fun, especially with how far the brony/tumblr community has taken him.
Blog Talk: favorite episode?
Dr. Beard (Sketchy-mod): Feeling Pinkie Keen, though it changes a lot. I haven't watched any episodes lately, but it's typically a Pinkie centred episode, so it might be Smile Smile Smile or A Friend in Deed.
Blog Talk: favorite mlpfim canon song?
Dr. Beard (Sketchy-mod): Argh, there are too many amazing ones to pick just one! Again, Pinkie is just amazing, so, probably Smile Smile Smile.
Blog Talk: what do you hope to see in season 3?
Dr. Beard (Sketchy-mod): Trixie's return and redemption, because I like to see redeeming characters, fleshes them out a lot more. Hmm, more incredible songs, a new antagonist, more friendship and more crazy pony shenanigans.
Blog Talk: do you think the show could be changed and if so what would you change?
Dr. Beard (Sketchy-mod): It could be changed, yes, but I don't think for the better. I like it the way it is, appealing to pretty much all audiences, though I myself would like to throw more references to previous shows, like Looney Toons and the like. That's one of my favourite aspects of MLP FiM: the little 'Easter eggs' they put in there.
Blog Talk: Alright could you tell our readers about your tumblr(s)?
Dr. Beard (Sketchy-mod): Sure, I have basically three 'main' tumblrs, and then one of them has about three deviations from it.
Firstly, there's my now neglected mod-blog, drbeard.tumblr.com, whose role of posting random pictures and sketches has been replaced by one of the sub blogs.
My second blog, made all the way back in January is the SFW Ask Stitches, (ask-stitches.tumblr.com). She was my first technical OC in the pony fandom, and now sports a health 450 something followers. She looks like a slightly scary pony plushy, but I can assure you she's a living pony with an unfortunate back story of nearly being burnt alive and only just making it out by being saved by some...thing. Slightly clichéd, but hey, it works.
My third and most popular/most updated tumblr is Sketchy Replies, (sketchy-replies.tumblr.com). She's basically a sketched pony, and is aware of it. She's NSFW, though thanks to the sub blogs of her I have, it often doesn't display TOO much outright NSFW content. She's witty, enjoys teasing ponies sexually with her replies, and can usually twist a sexual question into a humorous one.
The three sub-blogs from that are Sketchy-RP (sketchy-rp.tumblr.com) where a lot of smutty, well written *in my opinion* Role Playing goes on. If you want to RP with Sketchy, it usually turns sexual, just as a warning. The second sub blog is Sketchy Kinks, which I don't update as often as I should. There people send me requests for fetishes or poses or what have you for Sketchy to be in, ranging from futa to bondage to S&M to inflation. I made it a sub blog because I know a lot of people get squeamish about such things, and I don't want to scare them off Sketchy's main tumblr. The last tumblr is Sketchy's Sketches (sketchys-sketches.tumblr.com) which has in essence replaced my mod blog, I just upload random pictures and sketches I draw there.
Blog Talk: Having an nsfw blog is it any different from have a sfw?
Dr. Beard (Sketchy-mod): I think it is different, on one hand you can receive a much wider range of questions, and feel a larger freedom when it comes to answering them. Though on the other, in some places you can be looked down at for 'turning something innocent like ponies into crude porn." I don't feel that way, porn's going to happen either way, no matter what I do, and if I want to draw a pony displaying her goods, so be it. I also find that for every follower lost due to it being not safe for work, you gave three. Though, one thing that does kind of limit Sketchy is the fact that she can't collaborate with some of the 'safer' tumblrs like Ask Moonshine due to Sketchy's reputation.
Dr. Beard (Sketchy-mod): All in all, I'd say you have a little more freedom, and receive a little more judgement if you draw a NSFW tumblr, though I haven't received too much 'condemnation' from running Sketchy yet.
Blog Talk: Do you think yourself as bad or disgusting making this kind of porn? or do you think of yourself as a regular person just with a different and more open drawing style?
Dr. Beard (Sketchy-mod): The latter, though everyone's got their own piece of disgusting about them. I enjoy the stuff I draw, others enjoy it too, and those that don't like it haven't told me they don't. If they don't like the way I draw it, I'd like them to tell me how to draw it 'better', and if they just don't like it at all, then I'd ask them to unfollow.
Blog Talk: Since sketchy is nsfw has she interacted with other nsfw blogs?
Dr. Beard (Sketchy-mod): A few, yes. Some of them being simply art trades, others she might get featured in a question, usually involved in a sexual act with the ponysona of that tumblr. Sketchy's most common form of interaction with tumblrs is asking the question "Bagel?", I'd reblog their answer so my followers can see the potential of their tumblr, as I feel the question can be quite open ended.
Blog Talk: What is it with sketchy and Bagels?
Dr. Beard (Sketchy-mod): Hehe, I don't even know really. After seeing Ensayne, another NSFW tumblr ask ponies about their butts, I wanted Sketchy to have something she was fanatical about too. The first thing that popped into my head were bagels, and so she's been a bagel lover ever since then. Bagels are just good, you know?
Blog Talk: What do you hope for the future of your blogs?
Dr. Beard (Sketchy-mod): I don't really know to be honest with you, I draw for fun I guess, Sketchy's nearing 1000 followers, I don't really have a set goal. Just keep drawing I guess, or even move on to a fresh new tumblr, see how I do with that. It'd be awesome to get to know some other major tumblr artists, but as with almost the entire populace of Tumblr, I'm too shy to go out and talk to some of them.
Blog Talk: alright, time is running out. do you have anything to say to the readers before we go?
Dr. Beard (Sketchy-mod): Um, well, thanks for reading, check out Sketchy if you want. I believe I'm one of the first NSFW Tumblrs you've interviewed, right?
Blog Talk: yes that's correct.
Dr. Beard (Sketchy-mod): so, don't be afraid to talk to us NSFW artists, we're pretty nice and chill people who are usually down to earth. Thanks for the interview.

The Kappa Interview
Hello again everyone/pony, we have another interview! Ika! the mod behind askkappathekirin for your viewing.
Please read and enjoy
Blog Talk: Can you tell our readers your name, age and the place you call home?
Ikasama/Kappa: I go by Ika, Ikasama or Kappa online. I'm 22 and I'm up in Canada by the mountains o3o
Blog Talk: being 22 are you working, in school or none of the above?
Ikasama/Kappa: none at the moment.. I'd like to go to school but I need funds to do that so.. I'd like to do both, really! I just can't seem to find anything right now
Blog Talk: understandable, what would you like to get into as a job?
Ikasama/Kappa: what I'd really like to do is professional character design.. for video games or movies or what have you
Blog Talk: what is your life like away from the computer and tumblr?
Ikasama/Kappa: I don't really do a lot on weekdays.. but on weekends I often hang out with my friends and depending on which weekend it is my local brony group either has its biweekly meet up where we talk about the pmvs and news that has come out recently or if its the alternating week a small group of us come together and we play a sort of pony dungeons and dragons.
Blog Talk: how long have you been drawing?
Ikasama/Kappa: since I could hold a crayon probably :D my grandma has a lot of little kid fridge art
Blog Talk: How long have you been drawing mlpfim and related pictures?
Ikasama/Kappa: I think it was a little less than a year ago.. when I brought my sketchbook to my second meetup here.
Blog Talk: when and how did you first get into the show?
Ikasama/Kappa: One of my friends, who I'm not really in touch with anymore, he introduced me to it.. all like Ika Ika you HAVE to watch this
Ikasama/Kappa: and I was all like.. 'eww that’s for girls' and so he sits me down anyway and gets me to watch the first episode.. and then the second.. and then the third.. and by the time we're done we've watched every episode that came out at the time
Blog Talk: who's best pony?
Ikasama/Kappa: rarity!
Blog Talk: why?
Ikasama/Kappa: I think it mostly has to do with when I was young I read a lot of unicorn stories and the 'ideal unicorn' was pure white and graceful and just really gorgeous. So maybe that’s why I like Rarity.. and maybe its because she's generous and awesome to her friends but still can be a total drama queen
Blog Talk: who's worst pony?
Ikasama/Kappa: hmmn.. I don't really have a worst pony.. there’s no one in particular I really hate.
Blog Talk: favorite antagonist?
Ikasama/Kappa: I really like Chrysalis's design.. but Discord made things really difficult and he seems like he has a better backstory
Blog Talk: favorite episode?
Ikasama/Kappa: I still really like the suited for success episode from season 1.. its a really good example of how Rarity does work hard.. but the animation in season 2 definitely got better and its really hard to beat that finale
Blog Talk: favorite none main character?
Ikasama/Kappa: Lulu luck from the bling bags series.. she's good at everything
Blog Talk: tell our readers about your blog kappa
Ikasama/Kappa: oh dear.. where to start. Well, before Kappa my main OC was Rogue, and my group and I were just starting the Savage Worlds.. pony.. campaign.. thing. Anyway. I thought Rogue would be too rash and harsh on my companions, so I made Kappa. A really silly, innocent creature that has no comprehension on equestrian pony modern life
Blog Talk: what are your future plans for kappa's blog?
Ikasama/Kappa: future plans.. hmmn.. I know I should be doing some story arcs in there somewhere. I'm actually making a sad one soon.. and I still have one of those 'what would you be discorded' questions from way back when. I really should address all my 50 some odd questions! But I get caught up drawing fanart or just silly things..
Blog Talk: how long has kappa been around?
Ikasama/Kappa: I think I started in January of this year
Blog Talk: do you interact with other blogs?
Ikasama/Kappa: I try to as much as I can! I really like doing collabs and stuff
Blog Talk: Any friends on tumblr?
Ikasama/Kappa: yup! I think I've got a pretty good handful of them
Blog Talk: ok were running out of time, do you have anything to say to our readers?
Ikasama/Kappa: I think that this fandom is really wonderful in the way you can make awesome friends, in and out of the internet and that you never know what you can do until you try to do it.

The Ask Sweet Star Interview
Hello everyone/pony A great artist today one that WILL give you Diabetes asksweetstar visit/follow and ask this person stuff. n_n
Blog Talk: Could you tell our readers your name, age and the place you call home?
Mindy aka Sweet Star: I'm Mindy. Nineteen years old.... I feel so OLD!!!! Um... I call my house my home which is located at Southern California. Are there going to be people trying to find where I live now...? That would be a tiny bit creepy...
Blog Talk: Tell us about where you live; is it a good place to be?
Mindy aka Sweet Star: It is an interesting place in my opinion. There are always the ups and the downs to each city. The weather is usually nice, but there is too much L.A. smog to clearly see the environment. It is actually kind of gross when you land at LAX during the day... There is a blanket of brown cloud over the city. However, there are a lot of different types of food around here.
Blog Talk: being 19 are you working or in school?
Mindy aka Sweet Star: I am attending a college at the moment; however, I do take commissions to bring a little bit of cash in.
Blog Talk: What dream job are you gunning for?
Mindy aka Sweet Star: I am going to be a boring accountant one day! I honestly do not have a dream job. I would like going into art, but I fear that I'm not good enough. Especially since I'm not flexible with different types of style. I also lack a lot of drawing experience while just staying at my comfort zone... However, I rather just support my future family so they can do what they dream to be.
Blog Talk: how long have you been drawing for?
Mindy aka Sweet Star: I have been drawing since I was a little baby, but I started to get serious about 4 years ago. I would say I improved the most when I first started taking figure drawing. It helped me sort out proportions of the body and the basic movement/flow.
Blog Talk: when did you start drawing ponies?
Mindy aka Sweet Star: I started around February, but I only did one or two pictures a month. They're not that great either. I started to constantly draw ponies when I started Sweet Star back in May.
Blog Talk: do you consider yourself a brony?
Mindy aka Sweet Star: It really depends on how you would define a brony... If it is someone who likes the show and the music, then yes. However, I do not own any plushies, toy figures, or shirts. So, that might remove the title of brony from me. I do like drawing them because each character is very unique, and some of the characters that people create on tumblr are very interesting. I also enjoy some of the fan-made music too.
Blog Talk: Who's best pony?
Mindy aka Sweet Star: Of the mane 6? I like Twilight Sparkle the best. Rarity would be runner-up for me. Overall? I can’t answer that one... My favourites would be Twi, Vinyl, and Luna. I do not know Vinyl Scratch that well as a character, but her design is pretty awesome. Luna is my favourite princess because of seeing how hard she tries to fit in with everyone else. Luna is a sweet, caring, and beautiful alicorn.
Blog Talk: who's worst pony?
Mindy aka Sweet Star: I, personally, can't think of a pony to be the worse pony because it is just like pointing out someone is the worse person ever. However, if I had to pick out of the mane 6, it would be Applejack. The reason why I pick her is because she does not stand out to me. That does not mean I will put down anyone's opinion about her though.
Blog Talk: favorite antagonist?
Mindy aka Sweet Star: Um... I have a hard time picking between Discord and Chrysalis. I like how much of a troll Discord is, but Chrysalis was the closest one to winning. I think she screwed up when she revealed herself to Twi. Also, This Day Aria is one of my favourite songs if not my favourite.
Blog Talk: favorite episode?
Mindy aka Sweet Star: Another hard question.... I can’t decide...... Um... First two episodes and finale for Season 2.
Blog Talk: favorite none pony character?
Mindy aka Sweet Star: Owlowiscious because he is adorable and a wonderful pet.
Blog Talk: favorite brony music?
Mindy aka Sweet Star: So many hard questions!!! My brain is going to explode from all this thinking...... Um..... My favourites would be... Discord (The Living Tombstone's Remix) by Eurobeat Brony; Beyond Her Tomb, September, Been Dreamin' by Mic the Microphone, Nightmare Night (Ft. Mic the Microphone) and Avast Fluttershy's Ass by Wooden Toaster, Want It Need It by Jeffthestrider, 20 Percent Cooler by Ken Ashcorp, Party Cannon by The Living Tombstone, and Luna by Eurobeat Brony. Sorry for such a long list... I just can't decide....
Blog Talk: Ok so let's switch things, Could you tell our readers about your tumblr blog "sweet star"?
Mindy aka Sweet Star: The blog is about a filly, Sweet Star, moving to Ponyville because of her father getting a new job. Originally, I wanted Sweet Star to be all grown up already, but I decided to have her as a little filly because I wanted the followers to feel like as if they're watching her grow up like a parent would.
Blog Talk: do you have any other blogs?
Mindy aka Sweet Star: Besides Sweet Star and the mod blog? I do have a small comic series blog that I share with two other friends, but we have pretty much stopped updating that one because we're all busy. Sweet Star has taken up almost all of my time from drawing other things that I want.
Blog Talk: Do you interact with other blogs?
Mindy aka Sweet Star: Yes, I enjoy working with blogs. It is interesting to see how the characters would interact with each other. Also, it wouldn't be as fun if Sweet Star just talked to the characters within the show.
Blog Talk: Are there any blogs you look up to?
Mindy aka Sweet Star: There are several... I look up to Flutterguy, Hot Blooded Pinkie Pie, DawnStar, Drunk Celestia, Jitters, Corrupted Discipline, Rai, FrigidDrift, Sunflic, Crackpot, and several others... I would try to list them all but that might take forever...
Blog Talk: You must have some friends on tumblr, right?
Mindy aka Sweet Star: Yup! I have a few friends from around that have a tumblr, and I made several wonderful friends that I absolutely love to talk to!
Blog Talk: where do you see Sweet star in a few months?
Mindy aka Sweet Star: Hopefully, she will have her cutie mark in a few months... I still have no idea on what her cutie mark will be though...
Blog Talk: Is sweet star a pony version of you?
Mindy aka Sweet Star: No, she is not. I tried to make her not like me as much as possible, but I have been told that she acts like me quite a bit.
Blog Talk: Alright time is running out, is there anything you wish to say to the readers before we go?
Mindy aka Sweet Star: I do hope you enjoy my little blog, and I love all my followers.

The Askprosopeio Interview
Hello again everyone/pony, Here we have another interview but a little different as it's not an art blog BUT a great audio blog. askprosopeio
alrighty, read and enjoy n_n
Blog Talk: Could you tell our readers your name, age and the place you call home? Jorick Soriano: I’m Jorick, the mod of Prosopeio the Masked. I’m 30 years old as of last July and I live in a lovely place called Oceanside, California Blog Talk: Tell our readers about your home, is it a good place to live? Jorick Soriano: Oceanside is a nice place, relatively calm and quiet and pretty much a central hub City, since from here you can get to any and all main attraction parks and cities in undeer a couple of hours. We only have two seasons, warm and not so warm, and has a lot of lovely views. Not much of a night life though Blog Talk: Being 30 are you currently employed or in school? Jorick Soriano: I’m employed part time in Wal-Mart, not exactly where I saw myself being ten years ago lemme tell you. I’ve been wanting to go back to school, but I need to help support my family first and foremost Blog Talk: With times as ruff as it is, it’s good to see a family man. Could you tell us a little about your family? Jorick Soriano: *laughs* I’m not the kind of family man you probably think I am. I help support my parents and little brother and sister. Mom’s a Nurse, has been for longer than I’ve been alive, while Dad stays at home and helps keep the domestic things in line. Little Brother recently graduated College and is trying to find a job, while my little sister is still going through community college Blog Talk: What job would you say is that “Dream Job”? Jorick Soriano: Oh goodness… well… I suppose being an Editor of some kind or even a writer. Though of late I’ve had a better feel for helping people with their own ideas than working on my own. Anything where I can help someone develop their ideas, since doing so usually helps me with my own as well. Blog Talk: How long have you been a writer? Jorick Soriano: *laughs* I’ve been writing stories as long as there’ve been shows to inspire me. Of course, my writing at fourth grade wasn’t the best. Still, I can honestly say I’ve been writing for quite a long time. Blog Talk: Do you have any other skills/ such as drawing or singing? Jorick Soriano: I can’t draw. As much as that will anger the number of artists out there, I cannot. As for singing? Well.. I try, but I can admit to being a tad tone deaf. I do love to sing despite that slight handicap. A majority of my skills are writing related, be it short stories, poetry or writing up characters for role playing games. I suppose if making friends was a skill, I could own up to that too Blog Talk: Do you consider yourself a brony? Jorick Soriano: Yes. While I’m not an absolute fanatic, I am a big fan of the show and am willing to admit this in public ^^ Blog Talk: how long have you been into the show? Jorick Soriano: well, I loved the first generation as a kid. I watched all cartoons, and something about the adventures really entertained me then. I saw some of the second generatiion, but strayed from the show when it was less about interesting adventures and more about ponies living relatively human lives. That and other cartoons caught my eye. A friend of mine showed me the Friendship is Magic show when it first came out and I got re-hooked Blog Talk: What was your first eposode? Jorick Soriano: The very first episode, Nightmare Moon’s return Blog Talk: who’s best pony? Jorick Soriano: Ahh.. Pinkie Pie. I love musicals and laughing, she sings and is element of Laughter. It’s a perfect match ^^ Blog Talk: Who’s worst pony? Jorick Soriano: Is there such a thing? As a writer, all ponies have the capacity for best or worst depending on the situation. So I can’t really choose a ‘worst’ Blog Talk: Favorite antagonist? Jorick Soriano: hmm… difficult. Top of the list would have to be Discord, though Discord, Chryssalis and Nightmare Moon are pretty even to me. I just kind of wish Discord and Nightmare Moon had songs *laughs* Blog Talk: favorite non pony character? Jorick Soriano: *laughs* not a lot of them, are there? If I had to choose, then Spike. He’s a perfect sidekick/foil and is usually the only guy in any given episode. Being the only guy with mostly female friends is something I can relate to quite well. Blog Talk: favorite episode? Jorick Soriano: hard choice… There are so many, but I suppose it’s a tie between the Cake on a Train episode or the one where Pinkie sings Smile. Blog Talk: do you think the show can be improved? Jorick Soriano: There’s no such thing as a perfect show. There are a number of things that can improve the show from a story perspective; after all, they have a whole world to play with, as well as a number of creatures from past generations they can alter to fit the new generation. That and a cast of characters that tend to be mostly one offs when they can do a lot more. Blog Talk: what would you like to see in season 3? Jorick Soriano: Seaponies, the return of a number of side characters like Zecora, Gilda, Princess Luna, perhaps even other races aside from Zebras and Gryphons. Blog Talk: tell our reader about your blog on tumblr Jorick Soriano: AskProsopeio is an audio blog. Since I lack the ability to draw in any fashion, I wanted to do something different. It started off with Prosopeio doing poetry based off of other pony blogs, but recently I’m in the middle of a small story arch that is taking a little longer than it should. The character himself is a masked show pony who lives to entertain the masses, both because he loves doing so and for his survival. Blog Talk: how long has the blog been around for? Jorick Soriano: good question.. less than a year for sure. Maybe about 6 months ^^ Blog Talk: In that time what changes has you seen to the brony tumblr comunity? Jorick Soriano: Changes? I’ve seen friendships formed and broken, social circles redrawn, and artists slowly improving their craft. I’ve seen memes fade in and out, then in again and reblogs cropping up after months of sitting in tumblr limbo. I do like the fact that I’m seeing more community events like the Summer Camp, though I wish there were some way I could join in sometimes since they are more for art blogs and not for a voice blog like myself. Blog Talk: Do you socialize with other blogs? Jorick Soriano: Regularly ^^ I have my own chat where I talk regularly with Full Force, Sliver Overlord, SHibari Stich, Jack Harkness Pony, Rainbird, Earthbound, Raito 1, my best friend Chance Meeting, Buckshire, Lovelace, Sweet Star and Edge Doodle. I also speak with Sweet Cream from time to time, as well as a few other blogs. Ever since starting Prosopeio, I’ve been fortunate to meet and befriend much of the community, like Drunk Celestia, Rockin Roolo, her sister Peaceful Shimmer, Laura, Maelstrom and a number of other amazing blogs and mods. Honestly, there are so many people out there that I’ve met, spoken with and enjoy talking to and playing games with I can’t list them all for fear of boring people with a huge list. That, and I’m afraid I’d miss somepony and would hear no end of it from them *laughs* Blog Talk: Are there any art blogs that have inspired your writing? Jorick Soriano: Well, Rose Wine was a massive influence, mostly because she was the first to draw Prosopeio, but also because she took a different approach from drawing her pony as opposed to many blogs who follow the norm. Buckshire and Sweet Cream have given me a number of ideas on writing as well, due to their characterization of their characters as well as the art they post. Love Lace has been quite the inspiration as well since somehow my pony and hers found themselves in a relationship *laughs* But honestly, I follow many wonderful art blogs, and there has been many times where someone does something in their story that I’ve been like ‘Yeah! That makes sense!” and started writing up ideas. Blog Talk: alright we’re running out of time. Is there anything you wish to say to our readers before we go? Jorick Soriano: Yes. Keep doing what you do tumblr, Artists keep drawing, Writers and Role Players, keep Writing and Role PLaying, and Voice Actors and Musicians keep Recording! We grow and learn as we receive Comments and Criticism, and hopefully I will be able to proudly say I stand amongst the greats like Ogatamon and Wild Card. Until then, shout out to all my friends in the Super Secret Clubhouse and all my other friends as well! And a major thank you to Blog Talk for having me here today.

The BuckShire Interview
Hello everyone/pony, It's been a while since the last one huh? anyways things are going to move forward again. Thanks for keeping with us!
So here read and enjoy n_n
Blog Talk: Can you tell our readers your name, age and the place you call home? Jo Lynn: Jo is my nick name, just turned 24 and I live in Austin, Texas. Blog Talk: What’s it like to live in Texas? Jo Lynn: It’s hot, humid, and sticky. The old town I used to live in was boring as hell, making me hate the state, but moving here to Austin opened my eyes to how awesome this place is. What I found in common in most places here is that almost everyone is friendly compared to other states I’ve visited. Blog Talk: Being 24 are you working or schooling? Jo Lynn: Just working. Would love to go back to school, saving up for it now, my only worry is that work may cause my schooling to slack. I really want to take drawing and graphic design classes, I have alot to learn. Blog Talk: what do you work as? Jo Lynn: Call center representative for a cell phone company. It can be mentally taxing to listen to people cuss you out on a daily basis for silly reasons, and then try to sell them something, but it pays well. Alot of mind games involved and to be honest, I picked up a few habits from it lol. Blog Talk: What’s your dream job? Jo Lynn: To be a character and story designer of sorts. Be it a game, cartoon, book, something that allows me to create characters and tell stories. Blog Talk: how long have you been drawing for? Jo Lynn: Well pretty much as long as I could hold a pencil properly. Started by tracing disney characters and then copying and learning from it in elementary school. It would be an on and off thing, I would have drawing phases, then “inventing” phases making things out of trash. I think if I hadn’t gone the drawing route, I’d probably be an inventor. But near junior high it became a somewhat consistent thing. Blog Talk: are you still “inventing”? Jo Lynn: Nah, I mean, I get ideas every now and then when I see something interesting, but I don’t have the drive or knowledge on how to go through with it. Blog Talk: so what type of drawing are you into? Jo Lynn: All kinds. Mostly anime style, but I like to experiment with others. Cartoony, realistic (which is the hardest), etc. Ponies is a new territory for me, and a fun one. Blog Talk: when did you start drawing ponies? Jo Lynn: Few months ago, somewhere when Season two was airing. I saw several threads in /co/ on mlp, and several pictures on DA that made me want to try it out as well. At first, I couldn’t get the hang of it and quit, but then I picked it back up a bit later to try again. Blog Talk: what was the first mlpfim episode that got you into the fandom? Jo Lynn: Well to be honest, the first two episodes of the series was an eye catcher, but I didn’t pick it back up again until Lesson Zero episode. We had just moved into our new apartment and had no internet, so I was watching each episode on my phone through youtube. Lesson Zero showed me that this show really liked to have fun with it’s characters. Blog Talk: who’s best pony? Jo Lynn: It’s really hard to choose. Out of the mane 6? At first I liked Pinkie Pie, but then it became Rarity. Her over exaggerated drama provided many laughs. Blog Talk: who’s worst pony? Jo Lynn: AppleJack. lol just kidding. Nopony is worst pony. I don’t care much for the CMC. Separately, is fine, but together, meh. Blog Talk: why is that? Jo Lynn: I can’t really explain it, I just know when a CMC episode came on I’d groan. Blog Talk: favorite antagonist? Jo Lynn: That’s a toughie. I want to say Discord. Although I don’t care much for his voice, his wacky playfulness slays me. And the chaos he causes? Oh man, I loved it. Blog Talk: favorite none pony character? Jo Lynn: The Windigos. They had only a few scenes but the idea of them is awesome. Blog Talk: favorite episode? Jo Lynn: The Return of Harmony 1/2. Blog Talk: what makes it your favorite? Jo Lynn: All the stuff Discord does Equestria. Day and night in seconds, the bunnies with the long legs, just seeing the world turned upside-down and crazy was awesome. Blog Talk: favorite song? Jo Lynn: Winter wrap up, winter wrap uuuuup! and “This day” was pretty awesome too Blog Talk: This message has been removed. Blog Talk: could you tell our readers about your tumblr blog? Jo Lynn: Well, it’s a story about two young colts and their lives in the small forest town they live in, as well as many other characters. It’s planned to grow into an adventure/drama story as time goes on, and even has an ending and squeal blog planned. Blog Talk: Who’s your favorite to draw? Jo Lynn: Even though there isn’t much of ‘em, Passion Link. I love the colors. Blog Talk: Where did the name buckshire come from? Jo Lynn: Google to be honest. I was looking up names for towns and Equestian words to combine. I’m terrible with naming things Blog Talk: do you have any other blogs? Jo Lynn: Well, there’s a mod blog where I post doodles and reblog stuff, and Zuka Zuna a zebra blog that is currently on hiatus until I revive it soon, then there is another up coming ask blog I’m working on with a friend. Non-pony. Blog Talk: where do you think your blog buckshire will be in a couple of months? Jo Lynn: Hopefully to the point where the kids are exploring Ephraim and Equestria, and at least one character has died off. Blog Talk: ok time is about up, but before we go do you have anything to say to the readers? Jo Lynn: Yes, this fandom is the most fun I’ve been in. All the creativity and people working together is the best. The drama is the same with every fandom, but what makes it stand out is the interactivity of it all.

The WildCard Interview
Alright readers the newest interview is up. Please read and enjoy n_n
Link: thetalesofwildcard
Blog Talk: Could you tell our readers your name, age and the place you call home? Wild Butt: Just going by Wild is fine! I'm 26 and live on the East Coast, most recently having lived in Orlando, Florida. Blog Talk: Being 26 are you working or schooling? Wild Butt: Both, actually. I have a Bachelors in Education with a minor in English. I'm currently attending grad school to get my Masters in English/Literature, and work for the school throughout the year. In the summer I work on my thesis and am a senior landscaper for a couple companies in the town I live. I used to be an actor for a living, but the economy kind of disrupted that lifestyle. Blog Talk: What is your dream job? Wild Butt: I lived it, temporarily, and that was performing. I did stage shows, characters, and emcee work for such companies as The Walt Disney Company and NBC Universal. I've done some voiceover work for radio here and there. I would love to get back into that life, but here's the problem with Entertainment: you can lose your job in an instant, with no reason whatsoever. In this country's poor economy, it's better to be safe than sorry...hence, why I'm back in school. Blog Talk: What's it like in Orlando, Florida? Wild Butt: Humid, more than anything, and outside of the theme parks and touristy areas it's actually pretty laid back and quiet. Even so, there's really never a shortage of things to do, which is one reason I loved living there so much. That, and I love the sun and heat. Mmm, warmth. Blog Talk: So aside from Voice acting, you of coarse draw correct? Wild Butt: I had a hand in some of the artwork at the beginning of my blog, but I don't really draw as well as others on tumblr, or make a hobby out of it. I've mainly used what limited experience I have fleshing out poses and skeletons while more artistic friends of mine put on the details. Blog Talk: When did you first get into mlpfim? Wild Butt: It was a few months after the new series came out, in January or February , I believe. My first 'exposure' to it was seeing those meme-esque pictures involving ponies, and I kept wondering where the hell they came from. After seeing it being brought into the light more and more, I decided to watch an episode at random and see what the fuss was about. The first episode I watched was Bridle Gossip, where Rarity had to make the dresses for the Gala. Being an actor and musical freak, the Sondheim-like song that was performed really piqued my interest, that and the ponies' extremely entertaining personalities -- Rarity being the foremost amusing, as I've met so many actresses exactly like her. I watched more and more, and like any other fan, I got hooked. Blog Talk: Do you consider yourself a brony? Wild Butt: Haha, not in public! I do enjoy this fandom enough to consider myself one, but it's not something I wear on my sleeve as a badge of pride. It's great to have something fun like MLP to enjoy in private or with people who have a similar passion for it, but in the workspace or when around people who really wouldn't get it, I don't make it a point to advertise I'm a brony. I have to think about my job and social life, after all. Blog Talk: who's best pony? Wild Butt: Applejack is best pony, no question. Poor girl doesn't get enough love. Blog Talk: What exactly make her best pony? Wild Butt: Well, for one, I have a penchant for earth ponies. They're definitely the underdogs, not having flight or magic, but they still make do anyway and are much hardier than their privileged cousins. There's also the fact that she's a cowgirl, and if anybody reads my blog I clearly have a weakness for Western stuff. Her accent is adorable ; she's a hard worker; and she's honest, the latter two being qualities I always respect. Blog Talk: who's worst pony? Wild Butt: Gilda is worst pony. But she is BEST griffon. :D I love her too. Blog Talk: Favorite antagonist? Wild Butt: Well, as mentioned above--and if she counts-- Gilda is my favorite baddie. She wasn't 'evil' , just somebody who was conflicted by something I'm sure we're all guilty of -- jealousy and overprotection. She had that real quality of having a poor self-image, hence why she was such a bitch. There wasn't any motivation to destroy the world or create chaos for the sake of it. I like characters when they're a bit more realistic, and she fit that bill. Blog Talk: Favorite episode? Wild Butt: Nightmare Night! Anybody who knows me knows that I'm a Halloween nut, and when any show I enjoy does a 'Halloween' episode, that usually goes right into my Favorites. Seeing Luna get some more exposure was nice too, and I'm glad it helped destroy the 'poor me' personality the fandom had made for her to be waifu status. A close second favorite episode would probably be the Royal Wedding, since it premiered Shining Armor -- the only canon pony I can voice. Blog Talk: Favorite none pony character? Wild Butt: If we're still talking about the show, I really don't have any favorites outside of the ponies, aside from the aforementioned. I've never been a huge fan of Discord. He was entertaining, had some AMAZING voice acting by John de Lancie, and had a neat design, but the whole zany, unstoppable entity of havoc thing felt incredibly forced to me. It was like they were trying to think up the most ridiculous villain to really 'wow' the fandom. It also brought about the whole 'ponies being discorded' concept that's become so popular with tumblr, which I think is one of the biggest cop outs for real character building. Blog Talk: Is there a pony you would ship with Wild card? Wild Butt: As much of a guilty pleasure it would be to ship a lot of canon ponies with Wild Card, I would probably never do it outside of private RPs or stuff that was basically non-canon to his storyline. One reason is because Wild is substantially older than the Mane 6 and many of the other ponies, being in his 30's. Another reason being : it's very much Gary Stu/Mary Sue-ish, unless there is some AMAZING explanation that makes sense in every way. I've seen a couple OCs shipped with Princess Luna and Celestia, like, legitimately...and I can't help but roll my eyes. It just seems very farfetched. Now, if we're talking about drunken one night stands, HELL YES, let's go for it! XD Just some harmless, social fucking y'all. Wild Butt: That's totally Wild's MO. Blog Talk: How many blogs do you have going on? Wild Butt: Serious blogs? Just two. I have The Tales of Wild Card, and Shining Armor Reports, both voice acting blogs. I'm having a bit of difficulty getting some new audio posts up for them, mainly due to some stress at home. Blog Talk: How long have you been running them? Wild Butt: Wild's blog has been running for a little over 6 months now, though I've had the character for much longer. Shining's blog came out literally days after the Royal Wedding premiered , due to some goading by close friends. They're both a lot of fun to work on, very different sides of a coin: one is a brash rogue who likes to drink and shoot people, while the other is a stand up knight dealing with issues revolving around his marriage and the Changeling incident. It's a good way to stretch my acting legs, and practice makes perfect. Blog Talk: Which is your favorite out of the two? Wild Butt: Well, Wild, definitely. He's my baby, after all. Don't get me wrong, I still love Shining , but his blog tends to put a bit more stress on me in multiple ways. Considering his voice is an impersonation/impression and not something I made up, I have to live up to a specific standard, namely how the original voice actor sounds. It's a tough thing to balance and stretch sometimes, especially since Shining Armor didn't have a lot of lines to begin with. But you know what they say: nothing ventured, nothing gained! Wild Card's blog is just flat out fun and hijinks. There are moments of seriousness, yes, and some depressing character development, as is expected for a Western. At the end of the day though, Wild Card has always been about representing the myths, brutality, and adventure of the Wild West--pony style, and that to me is incredibly fun. Blog Talk: Is there anything that bothers you with any of the blogs you own? Wild Butt: Ha, probably just forcing myself to crank out audio journals when I don't have the muse. It's a lot of work recording and editing all that stuff, especially when I have to work in other actors , music, etc. Outside of that, I guess the only thing that 'bothers' me about doing these blogs is the lack of appreciation voice actors receive in this fandom...provided you're not the actual cast of MLP:FiM. Art seems to always take precedence, and while I understand why, it upsets me seeing voice actors just get kind of thrown under the bus. Blog Talk: Is there a popular question people ask wildcard? Wild Butt: Most of the asks Wild gets are flirting, which to him is just fine. XD There's also those hotshot pony OCs who think they can take him on in a fight, but I usually chalk those up to infantile pissing contests, considering the OCs who -do- ask are usually overpowered alicorns or pegasi who can teleport or some shit. In most cases I ignore those. Blog Talk: What are the future plans for your blogs? Wild Butt: My current plan for Wild's blog is to flesh out his character a lot more, introduce some aspects of his past and make him more than just a bandit king who has fun robbing rich people. As that progresses, I intend on taking him down a very different route career-wise for awhile--but I'm not about to give that away just yet. For Shining, it's hard to say. I have some preliminary moments planned out, but I'm mainly letting my gut guide me with his story. A fellow voice actor I'm friends with his started up a Princess Cadence VO blog to coincide with his, which should make things interesting. Blog Talk: Do you interact with other blogs? Wild Butt: I try to, when I can. In the past I used to interact with a lot more blogs, like Lyla the Equestrian Wolf and Fortunate Cookie, two blogs that have sadly become inactive. Sweet Cream, who is a good friend of mine, is somebody I cross over stories with often, and she's kind enough to take a lot of my commissions for things I need done for my own blog. Lately I've been getting to know a lot more voice actors in the fandom and have been doing projects with them outside of tumblr, but I usually keep my blogs separate from theirs in respect to their own universes. I also try to crossover with my girlfriend's blogs when time permits, but she and are often so busy we hardly get the opportunity to do it. :( Blog Talk: Is there any shout outs to friends you wish to say? Wild Butt: I really don't want to play favorites, here. The people whom I'm closest to and have helped me along know who they are though, and know I love them tons! To all of the people who follow me though that I haven't met personally : you guys are fantastic. All the support and such I've been given by people I barely know, blows my mind, and it's one of the few things that lets me keep faith regarding the pony fandom. Blog Talk: Any last words before we go? Wild Butt: I've got at least one final thing to say. I know a lot of you pony bloggers are discouraged. You don't have a lot of followers and you think that everybody is better than you, and nobody cares what you have to say. A lot of people will tell you: stop being jealous; stop complaining; you'll get followers eventually, it'll be okay; and of course the ever popular 'followers don't matter'. There is a ton of truth to what the say, because, really, this is the internet and who fucking cares. But if you're really upset by a blog you think is more superior than you, or you think you can do just as good as : USE IT. Use your jealousy or aggravation and turn it into DETERMINATION. Keep thinking that you can top whatever the rest of them can do, and work hard, bust your ass to get your name out there and show them just how awesome you are. This goes for the real world, too. Don't let your jealousy or disgruntled feelings stall you, let them push you to being just as great. I can't tell you how many blogs I see crank out stuff, or so called voice actors pump out some their routine and think, " Hah, fuck that shit. I can do better. " , and it's part of what keeps me going to keep doing the best I can. You're your own worst enemy, guys, not the competition. Kick your own ass first, before you kick theirs And that fun tangent aside: thanks for having me on! It's been a real honour to be interviewed, Blog Talk!

The Jitterbugjive Interview
Hello everyone/pony and As you've requested Jitters/Discorded Doctor whooves has been interviewed!
links: jitterbugjive and askdiscordwhooves
Here it is, read and enjoy n_n
Blog Talk: Alright could you tell our readers your Name, age and the place you call home? JitterWhooves: Jack/Jitters, 22. I grew up in Oregon and I moved to Florida 2 years ago. Blog Talk: Being 22 are you working for a degree of some kind or just plain working? JitterWhooves: I've been attempting to find work for 4 years now with no luck. 4 years and only managed to nab 7 interviews in total. So, instead, I've been freelancing, which is keeping me afloat fairly decently. I'll be opening up a business officially soon, so I can sell t-shirts, commissions, sculptures, and other products. It's looking quite promising so far. Blog Talk: What was it that you were working as? JitterWhooves: I just draw. It's practically my life. Every single day, I'm usually drawing, and it's been my dream since I was little to turn my art into a career. Selling my art for money on commission is nice and all, but I'm hoping one day I can publish my own comics once I've reached a level I feel is professional. Blog Talk: What would you consider professional? JitterWhooves: Well, like something you'd see on a comic book/manga shelf at a store. Good perspective, anatomy, a grasp on the story, something that's clean and nice to look at. Right now my big challenges in art would be perspective, backgrounds, and anatomy around the hands and legs. I feel like I'm getting very close to reaching that threshhold. Maybe in 2 or 3 years I can finally be content with how my art looks. Blog Talk: How long have you been drawing exactly? JitterWhooves: I've been drawing since I first learned to pick up a crayon. I think that might have been around 4. I remember tracing a lot of my cartoon books when I was 5 or so, and I started drawing sequential (comic) style things in second grade. We were told to make storybooks, and that's how I did it. I believe I started my first actual frame by frame comic when I was 12. Blog Talk: Do you have any Off tumblr projects? JitterWhooves: I have quite a few, though at the moment I wont be able to share much about them. I plan to do so once I've revealed my other identity to tumblr. For now, I can say that I have three in mind that I hope can be published some day. I have a horror, a dystopia/apocalyptic story, and a comedy/romance. Blog Talk: Being at the lv that you are is it stressful to undertake all these projects or is it so easy it can be compared to breathing? JitterWhooves: It's hard to say. It takes up a lot of my time, and I really enjoy it. The stress tends to come from missing deadlines and having delays, because when one project suffers, all the others go with it. Also, there's an issue of having a lot of commissions built up on the side that are outside of tumblr. I love doing tumblr commissions because they are quick and I have boundaries set that keep me from taking too much, but offsite I made a big mistake and I have a lot of hard work with things I'd rather not draw. I want to draw my own creations and with my own style, and more recently I've decided that once I get my plate clear of commissions, I'll be sticking to live commissions and my own art only. Blog Talk: How long have you been drawing Mlpfim? JitterWhooves: My first pony drawing was back in March, 2011 I think. I drew myself as a pony with the caption "Yeah... I got addicted too." Since then I've been drawing ponies in various styles, trying to find one that I liked and felt comfortable drawing. In fact, I was still experimenting back when I first started Discord Whooves. The first few posts are VERY different from how I draw ponies now, and there's even a post that says "I think I found a style I've settled on." Right here, actually: http://askdiscordwhooves.tumblr.com/post/14555415321/ooc-i-think-i-settled-on-a-coloring-style Blog Talk: How many on tumblr activities do you have your hands in? JitterWhooves: Well, for Discord Whooves related blogs, there are four that I'm a part of. I partially draw the Master blog and I work with the appointed writer to make sure our stories line up and match. I have a Derpy blog that will later be connected, but I can't say what it is yet. Obviously there's Disco himself, and lastly I'm working with someone for the Minuette blog which will become active in hopefully a few weeks. As for other tumblrs, I also have Jitterpony, but I don't draw in that one often because it's just for fun. I have 2 other draw blogs that I can't talk about yet, though both aren't very active either. Finally, I'm a part of 'Skittles and Butterface' which is just a silly little collab thing with a couple of other mods. Again, I don't post in it very often. Blog Talk: Do you consider yourself a brony? JitterWhooves: VERY much so, yes! I love contributing to the community and I love seeing what everyone can do. I'm there in the live streams whenever new episodes air, screaming out background pony names when I see them, flailing my arms around whenever something amazing happens, etc. I absolutely love being a brony and I say it loud and proud. Blog Talk: Who's best pony? JitterWhooves: Doctor Whooves is best pony! Twilight Sparkle is best mane 6 pony, though. Blog Talk: Why are they your favorite? JitterWhooves: Doctor Whooves brought me to another fandom, which has made me a combo Brony and Whovian. I'm not really sure exactly HOW I became a huge fan of him, really. I think it might have been Derpy, because I saw him with her a lot in the fandom and it made me curious. Derpy's nice and all, but she's got a spot in almost every episode thanks to her fame. I really freak out whenever I spot the Doctor. As for Twilight, she's grown on me. I realized she's a lot like me in many ways, and I think she's the most adorkable thing ever. Also, she's my favorite color. Blog Talk: who's worst pony? JitterWhooves: Well, if I HAVE to choose, I'd have to say Pinkie Pie. Her crazy hyper attitude gets out of control sometimes to a point where it becomes inconsiderate and in the show it's just treated like "Oh that Pinkie!" when in reality she would make a LOT of people very upset. I mean, her being hyper and fun is cool and all. She was okay in season 1. But in season 2 it became an excuse for her to be very rude and invasive with no repercussions. Also, her 4th wall breaking has been really getting out of control. It used to be subtle, but now it's like it's becoming the main joke for her and it gets WAAAAY out of hand. Blog Talk: Favorite none pony character? JitterWhooves: It'd have to be either Tank or the hydra. Tank because I love turtles/tortoises and he's just so cute and tries so hard. The Hydra because I LOVE LOVE LOVE Hydras in general, and because that one head that's different than the others at all times. Blog Talk: Favorite antagonist? JitterWhooves: Queen Chrysalis. I love her design, I love her voice, I love her eyes, and I love her song. Also shape shifting is probably my favorite super ability ever. Chrysalis was probably the first villain in the series with purely evil intent. NMM wanted night forever out of sheer jealousy and the fact that she wanted the ponies to love her as well. Night time forever is bad, but it's not THAT bad. Discord isn't evil, either. He's just 'chaos' and wanted to mess around. The other characters, like Trixie and Guilda were more like school yard bullies. But Chrys was really evil. She wanted to overtake Equestria and literally feed off of them. She was also extremely powerful and cunning in the way she did things. As a person who loves villains, I found her the most villainous. Blog Talk: Favorite minor Antagonists from both seasons? JitterWhooves: That's a bit of a tough one for me since there weren't many in the series... Umm, yeah there were only about 4 or so I can think of and I wasn't really all that fond of them. I do like the Flim Flam brothers though, so I guess them? Blog Talk: Favorite episode? JitterWhooves: May the Best Pet Win. One of my favorite songs, Tank is awesome, and the whole episode was really fun for me. Of course, the Wedding finale is at a tie with it, but I mean really, what could top that? Blog Talk: Did it disappoint you to see how she was defeated? JitterWhooves: It was a little cheesy, but I admit I wound up tearing up at that part anyways. The scene was just so beautifully done, and I'd say it was at least a lot more dignified than Discord's defeat. Blog Talk: Favorite mlpfim song? JitterWhooves: Musical number: Find a Pet/This Day Aria Score: Fashion Show Blog Talk: Favorite brony made music? JitterWhooves: That I honestly can't say. I love WAY too many fan-made songs. I will come out and say right now though that I don't like the dubstep stuff. Blog Talk: What do you hope for in Season 3? JitterWhooves: Well, from what I've seen so far of it, I'd say I hope to see more wonderful animation. It looks like the animators are really stepping it up for this season. Of course, good music as usual, and finally I really want to see some more lessons we can all learn from with less 'we have to make the pony learning the lesson a huge jerk to learn it' episodes. Also a Scootaloo episode. Because what the hell, the other two got episodes!! Blog Talk: would you change anything about mlpfim? JitterWhooves: Only one thing, and that's because I'm very big on writing consistent characters: They need to stop generalizing the personalities of the mane 6. Season one felt well rounded, but in season 2 a lot of them fell victim to stereotyped and exadurated traits of their original personalities and it made a lot of them less enjoyable. Blog Talk: How would you react to hasbro calling you up about disco. and wanting to put him in the show? JitterWhooves: I'd be very VERY confused and I might have to decline simply because I'd worry about copyright issues and I'd feel like I'd lose him somehow. I mean, it's a great thought and all, but it seems rather out there. Besides that, the character is part of a rather mature story, and I'd feel kind of guilty if he popped up in a kid's show XD Blog Talk: Alright we're running out of time, Do you have anything to tell our readers before we go? JitterWhooves: Just that I love and appreciate all of them and I don't plan on leaving any time soon. Oh, and that they better be prepared for more feels, because I've barely scratched the surface of the story.
