ridiculous but hilarious my little pony fandom crossover spam here

WILL BE ADDING MORE SHORTLY, sometime today, haha. THE THINGS WE AMUSE OURSELVES WITH. if these were real, though, i would totally get them for my niece. especially the snafu pony and the welsh pony lol, they're adorable.


in other quick, related-to-fandom news. i, um. have a new ship.

unf. they'd be quite destructive and dysfunctional, but quite fascinating too, and definitely sexy -- lmao i could ramble more, but i'll just say this for now.

SO THEN. [livejournal.com profile] awoken made a mix. and it's perfect for them. go, go, download. i don't care if you don't know the fandoms, it's a mix that's lovely and broken and a bit dark yet fascinating, anyway.

lmao, jenny totally mentioned that you would be quite excited for these. =D (I WAS SO HAPPY TO FIND THAT PONY CREATOR ON DEVIANTART. it's ridiculously fun.)

i'm still making ponies, so there's more pacific ponies to come! ...the cutie marks are just harder to decide on then it seems like they would be, haha. except for cobb's. cobb's was hilariously easy.

I SO WOULD COLLECT THESE IF THEY WERE REAL TOO. HONESTLY, IF SOMEONE MADE THEM, YOU KNOW HOW MUCH MONEY THEY WOULD MAKE? we'd all buy them, lmfao. and totally start prodding people for fic, every fandom deserves some crack!pony fic, okay. i would write it myself but everything i touch ficwise turns to angst :|


definitely check out [livejournal.com profile] awoken's mix, it's beautifully done and cemented the idea of them in my head. --the ship actually came from a conversation where i was talking about how the guys' reactions to war/ability to cope later on in life can be different depending on their experiences in life before the war, and both snafu and liebgott were ones i think definitely had trauma/harsh lives pre-war, which comes out a lot in their reactionary actions/violence/or dissociative indifference in snafu's case--- and LMAO IT WAS A LOT MORE IN DEPTH THAN THIS LITTLE BLURB, but the point is: it ended up having me think of the two of them at the same time, and really ...they'd be so destructive and dysfunctional but there's something a little kind of beautiful (and totally sexy) about them at the same time. I THINK THE WHOLE "FUCK AND TEAR EACH OTHER APART BOTH AT ONCE" is a pretty good explanation.

Well, I've always had a weird soft spot for My Little Pony, and the new series is both excellent and great crack crossover fodder. [livejournal.com profile] uniformly was actually showing me links to these yesterday morning - I managed to guess almost all of 'em first off, too, which is testament to how well you've done them. I keep scrolling back and laughing over details, like Penkala's hair and Lena's fierce expression, not to mention Harry's freckly butt. And the genius of Cobb goes without saying. (Poor little pony, he'd have sulked like hell at being stuck with a terrible pun for a cutie mark.)


I will definitely check out that mix! I really would love to see more BoB/TP crossovers, just comparing guys and how they deal. Snafu and Liebgott would be intriguing just as gen fic - two men who were strange and damaged before the war, and its impact on them after. Especially the contrast of Liebgott's fiery temper with Snafu's unsettling calm.
(Though it goes without saying, the thought of them, uh, together, is certainly not unappealing. All skinny limbs and snappy teeth.)

i swear like half of the people who love my little pony/watch that show are in their late teens or older, lmao. and it totally is great crack crossover fodder! and ohh, she told me she was showing someone, but she didn't say who! okay, harry welsh!pony might be my favorite. HE'S JUST SO TINY AND RIDICULOUS. thank you so much, i really thought about how to make them fit for each person (: (AND COBB. COBB ALSO DOESN'T HAVE A TAIL. LIFE SUCKS FOR COBB!PONY, OKAY.)

check it out! ♥ and man, i totally agree, i'm fascinated by crossovers. the beautiful thing about these fandoms is that there's so many characters, and they're all wonderfully dynamic since they're based on real people, so the possibilities really feel endless, you know? [livejournal.com profile] augustbird is already all over this (http://skylilies.livejournal.com/172140.html?thread=829036#t829036), and i'm SO EXCITED to see where it goes. the contrast between the two of them -- and yet, that they're similar in ways, at the same time, really fascinates me. i can't decide what their opinions of each other would end up being. (AND SKINNY LIMBS AND SNAPPY TEETH. ...um. unf. yeah. agreed.)


oh, also! hillbilly and haldane ponies are up!

HARRY WELSH IS AWESOME IN ALL UNIVERSES
Even when he's a pony. God, he'd be like Pinkie Pie but with grenades. Which is a terrifying thought.

The new ones are fantastic! Gibson pony's face, oh my god, I cracked up. That and pony Hillbilly's pointy muzzle. (Also came over all patriotic at Haldane's liberty torch mark, which is good going given that I'm not even American.)

[livejournal.com profile] augustbird is an amazing writer, so I'm really looking forward to seeing what she does with the concept - and always encouraging people to do more. There's two huge and fantastic casts and fandom so often just focuses on a handful, which is to be expected, I suppose, but also a bit of a shame. And there's just so many characters I'd love to see interact - Liebgott and Snafu, yeah, but also Snafu's take on Speirs, and Leckie talking writing with Webster (that's another pair who'd either love or hate each other), Runner and Chuckler shooting the shit with Easy's mortar boys, Haldane and Winters comparing leadership tips, Lipton and Hillbilly reminiscing about home, Sobel and Captain Jameson (H company's chickenshit CO from ep 1) trying to out-martinet one another... the possibilities are endless.
