Following a weekend that saw nearly 100 arrests of protesters at the NATO summit in Chicago, we speak with National Lawyers Guild attorney Sarah Gelsomino, who represents one of the five activists charged with terror-related crimes.

Gelsomino says...May 22, 2012 | Story

Buttery Nipple shots are a crowd pleaser simply due to the saucy moniker. No one is really sure where or when this shooter first appeared on the cocktail scene, but it is a probably a close relative to the Slippery Nipple shooter which uses Black Sambuca instead of Butterscotch Schnapps. Both Nipple shooters share a distinctive layered look which is part of the charm. The Buttery Nipple is smooth and has that 'tastes like candy' quality which can make it deadly if you have already been drinking heavily. Many purists will insist a maraschino cherry must be included in any Slippery Nipple recipe because the cherry is obviously the nipple. While visually stimulating, the taste of a maraschino cherry really does not flow with the Butterscotch Schnapps so feel free to omit it.
- A tall shot glass or shooter glass
- Bailey's Irish Cream
- Butterscotch Schnapps
- Maraschino cherry – optional
- Spoon – optional
- Part one. Buttery Nipple shots begin with a shot glass. If you are using the maraschino cherry then place one inside. Now fill the shot glass three quarters of the way with Butterscotch Schnapps.
- Part two. Fill the rest of the shot glass with Baileys Irish Cream. Remember that Buttery Nipple shots should always look layered and this part requires a steady hand.
- Technique. If you are having difficulty achieving the layered look of a Buttery Nipple, try slowly trickling the Bailey's Irish Cream on the side of the shot glass. Another option is to hold a spoon upside down over the shot glass. Slowly pour the Bailey's Irish Cream over the back of the spoon.

Brooklyn DJ Will Entertain at Convention Closing
This Brooklyn DJ certainly has his groove on – and he's about to bring it to the Democratic National Convention. Vikas Sapra, from Williamsburg will be playing for the crowd at the National Convention's closing party on Thursday.
The location for the event hasn't yet been announced, and Sapra has explained that
"I won't know where it is until I arrive in a car. This is by far the biggest honor I've had to date."
Sapra said that he hopes to play "Chicago soul sound" for the president and the crowd, and include classic hip-hop music and other feel-good finds.
Sapra has actually coming to being a DJ from an unusual path. He has a degree from NYU, where he graduated in 2007 and oversaw 400 employees at an industrial supply company for five years after college. He moved into working with a tech startup and focusing on his music. As he recounted, "I just wanted to do one indie dance party once a month, but it just started to snowball."
And now the Democratic National Convention will benefit from his expertise.

They serve the breakfast after seven, I think is because most of the people will be gone, the breakfast is very poor, mini muffins, mini bagels, no milk (only if you eat cereal), room is a little smelly, I don't know if is because they smoke outside and the smoke goes inside the room as well.

The service wasn't great. We apparently had to wake up the Manager even though I called ahead to let him know we would be checking in after 9PM. The breakfast was a few stale mini-muffins and some bagels. I visit San Carlos a lot, but I won't be staying at this hotel again.

I actually left this hotel at 9:30 pm after people tried entering my room twice from the front door and once through the bathroom window that would not lock. Worst hotel I have ever stayed at. You would be better off sleeping in your car.

Score from 509 reviews Excellent
Really nice hotel with great view! It is situated on the hill over the city of Braga, so there's a great city view. Bom Jesus cathedral, stairs and funicular are in a few minutes walking down. There are some restaurants and a park near the hotel. Host was very good, she spoke Portugese, French and a little bit English. We used a laundry, it was about 2 euro per jeans.
The hotel is situated on the hill, we had a car, and I think without a car it can be hard to stay there - you need remember working hours of the funicular or walk up the long stairs. Also if you have a lot of luggage it will be hard to get any changes of transport. One day we returned to the hotel and saw that all restaurants nearby are closed. We drove down to the McDonalds but without a car we gonna have to go to sleep hungry. So it's great place if you have a car, without it you can get some asperities.
Peace and quiet; wonderful views; good breakfast; pleasant staff and good room. Very good value for money and would definitely stay there again.
Wash basin wasn't very functional and the room could have used a second comfy chair. Tea making facilities would have been good
The Staff were very friendly and helpful especially the lady at the reception. On checking out of the hotel I had left my recharger in the room. I phoned the reception and the lady kept it for me so that I could pick it up a few days later. That's what I call good service! We would definitely book there again.
The double bed was too small for us.
The staff were very friendly and helpful and the hotel had a really nice atmosphere. The view from the breakfast terrace was excellent and the breakfast itself was very good and varied. The hotel was very clean and comfortable.
You have a wonderful view from the rooms on all Braga. I had at the bar the best cocktails I have ever drinked... True story, you should try it!
The Wi-Fi was down
Close to bom jesus which is the best attraction in braga. Breakfat wss very good.
Bed not comfortable. Simple room but fair gor price.
Great location, just across the street from the entrance to Bom Jesus. Nice view from the large balcony. Good breakfast.
Wi-Fi was non-existent. The one hotel computer in the lobby was glacially slow. Just checking email was a chore. Both the curtains and the shower curtains had mold along the bottom. Hallways are very dark. The décor was very dated. Needs a major renovation.
Location very good and super view from the window. Very big balcony. Staff was freindly although they didn´t speak English but were friendly and helpful all the time.
Terrible smell (like fresh paint) when you enter the hotel. Luckily not in our room. Wi-fi was available only in the lobby.
Great position at top of Bom Jesus. Comfortable large room with spectacular view of the valley below and an excellent breakfast. Great value.
Internet was a bit dodgy, but it worked overall.
Location of the hotel is great. Walking distance to the top of Bom Jesus. The breakfast was very good with tasty fruit pies.
Sleeping quality was terrible due to the bad smell of the room ( ex smoking room I suppose). Showering quality was also very poor, the shower is very old( or stylised this way) and it is impossible to set comfort temperature. There is no restaurant nearby to have dinner at.
Big, spacious room, comfortable bed, great view, just outside of the city, next to Bom Jesus church.
No chair or table on the balcony No eggs or bacon for breakfast, but there are plenty of options
Interesting equiped - Style 100 years ago. Many cakes and some fruit for breakfast.
W-Lan didnt work in room, only at reception. Heating is weak. First room I got was very close to street, sounds like standing outside, but I could get a more quiet room
If you want to visit Bom Jesus the location is ideal but it is out of the city so you need a car. Room was large , a bit old style but comfortable. Breakfast was good and a nice view. Marcia was excellent, friendly and helpful.
Modern hotel and good location to visit Bom Jesus.
The staff was very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was good. Very spacious room.Free parking, free Internet. Very nice view from the balcony.
The location for our purpose was very good, mostly to visit Dom Jesus. The staff was helpful beyond the call of duty. This appeared to be off season and the staff were filling many roles. Although the breakfast was a cold buffet it was very good. Other clients criticized the darkness - they practised energy conservation when they could.
Some of the furnishings in the hotel are 'tired'. However, the cost for a room for one night was so minimal that I would not expect 5* furnishings.
fantastic location, big and beautiful rooms, plenty of space, strong wi-fi signal
the garage is very narrow
Next to Bom Jesus Wonderful views Good hotel Good breakfast Nice team Nice rooms
Breakfast with portugeshe cakes Big room with good view Near by foot to the top of Bom Jesus
There were only 4 rooms occupied : why in this case put customers on touched rooms ! With noise of course... They put visa but it´s wrong
Nice breakfast
Very dated- dingy - no lights turned on

The Allpar 200,000 Mile Club
We were the first 200,000 mile club on the Web, and we remain the largest. The average car on this list has 260,000 miles; and the most popular years are the 1990s. 1994 is the most popular year.
Featured high mileage cars and trucks
The latest cars and trucks with over 200,000 miles (current total: 4765)
(In order of modification, not entry).
1998 Plymouth Plymouth Breeze (Original 4 Cylinder, 2.0 engine; Automatic Transmission.)
Owner: Jonathan Long • Mileage: 206,600 Miles • Added: 2014-01-08 • Modified: 2014-11-21
Major Repairs: When purchased from the GSA Auction in 2001 with around 55,000 miles, it was found to have a blown head gasket. The government repaired it, and I put in a new TIMING BELT at the same time. Front Brakes and Rotors Replaced a few years later; Original BATTERY replaced in 2008!! FUEL PUMP failed about two or so years ago(near home after driving all the way back from Reno and parking); Replaced the TIMING BELT for Preventive Medicine again; RIGHT-REAR BALL JOINT broke with a full load in the car while on the highway less than a year ago (it had been loose and out of alignment for years, trying to warn me), I was able to limp along the shoulder with the tire rubbing the spring, to the next exit and found a garage (at that time they also lubed the Chassis, I had been told many times that it had been "sealed for life", but how long is "life"?? At 206,600 miles the ALTERNATOR was replaced. Most of these repairs, done professionally cost under $500. The car is still running well!!! (Knock on wood it will keep going for quite a while??)
Comments: In addition to the above "MAJOR REPAIRS", the OIL and FILTER were regularly changed at 3,000 to 5,000 mile intervals; AIR FILTER changed when needed; SPARK PLUGS and WIRES replaced; TIRES replaced when worn; COOLANT and TRANSMISSION Fluid changed Periodically; SERPENTINE BELT and RADIATOR HOSES replaced (rubber parts deteriorate over time). More or less I try to follow the recommendations found in the OWNER'S MANUAL. I also try to keep the RPM's under 3,000, although I do "rev" it up now and then to blow out excess carbon.
This has been my very reliable DAILY DRIVER for the last 12-1/2 years and over 145,000 miles!! This has involved a few THOUSAND trips to the local Post Office; a few HUNDRED round-trips between San Francisco and Sacramento; Several trips up to the Sierra Mountains, and countless local trips.. Many of these have been HIGHWAY MILES, also there have been many Short trips as well. Sacramento is a very dry climate (especially so lately, can you say "drought")?? So far that I know, salt is not used on the roads in this part of the country, and the car rarely sits near the salt-air seaside. It is still virtually RUST FREE with its original paint and still looks great!!! The paint is starting to fade on the front bumper, as it lives in a carport facing south. Headlights have fogged over somewhat, although I have buffed some of that out. Original Cloth interior is still in great shape having only a couple of small tears, this despite hauling numerous loads to and from auctions. It has some scratches and dings, the battle-scars from years of California driving, and loading and unloading goods. I wax it roughly once a year. Over the years I have used this car more like a truck, and except for only a handfull of times, I have always been able to fit everything in!!!! It remains quite fun to drive and reliable (knock on wood!) and still looks nice. I (hope) we still have a lot of good miles left together!!
1997 Dodge Ram 1500 Lariat SLT (5.2 automatic 4x2)
Owner: Sarah Hays • Mileage: 208,810 Miles • Added: 2014-11-15 • Modified: 2014-11-21
Major Repairs: replaced water pump 2009, radiator 2010, transmission 2010, alternator 2014
survived hit and run driver 2011, 2012
Comments: Love this truck. Need paint, windshield & radio to go another quarter-million miles.
2001 Dodge Ram 1500 (3.9 v6 5speed standard trans)
Owner: james atkisson • Mileage: 301,300 Miles • Added: 2014-11-19 • Modified: 2014-11-21
Major Repairs: new clutch at 280000

2000 Dodge Dakota QC SLT (3.9V6 auto 3.55 track lok )
Owner: Thomas Trowbridge • Mileage: 200,013 Miles • Added: 2014-11-19 • Modified: 2014-11-21
Major Repairs: Rear end replaced with 2003 disc brake rear end, rebuilt. Transmission rebuilt, timing set, cat converter.
Comments: Bought new 2/29/2000 at Huntington Beach Dodge
2000 Chrysler Town and Country Minivan (V6)
Owner: Jonathan Long • Mileage: 200,100 Miles • Added: 2014-11-21 • Modified: 2014-11-21
Major Repairs: Routine Periodic Maintenance.
Comments: My parents bought their van new in 2000 in New Hampshire and have used it as their dependable daily driver ever since. Along the way it was driven across country 27 times with the only known problem being the parking brake getting stuck (from dust and later rain which dried to form mud on the components, it was easily fixed). My father says this is the most dependable and reliable vehicle he has ever owned, never having achieved such a high mileage before!! They continue to use it as their only vehicle.
2005 Dodge Magnum RT (5.7l Hemi, 5 speed Autostick)
Owner: Jim Weiskotten • Mileage: 330,000 Miles • Added: 2010-04-05 • Modified: 2014-11-13
Major Repairs: Added Quaife limited slip differential for performance (not a repair)
Comments: Ordered through Pete's in Great Barrington MA. in September 04 (RIP dealership) Sister car to a Limerock pace car, Thank you my friend! Sidewinder cam installed in February 2010 (crosshatch still showing in the cylinder walls during install).
1993 Dodge Dakota LE Club Cab (3.9L V-6 Automatic 2WD)
Owner: MARK MOSS • Mileage: 218,500 Miles • Added: 2012-11-29 • Modified: 2014-11-13
Major Repairs: Water pump, alternator, radiator
Comments: BEEN A GOOD TRUCK SINCE I BOUGHT IN 2008 WITH ONLY 185508 MILES, STILL RUNS LIKE A TOP. AS LONG AS YOU DO REGULAR OIL CHANGES WITH TRANNY FILTER CHANGES IT'LL RUN FOREVER(WE HOPE).
2000 Chrysler 300M (3.5 V6 / 42LE)
Owner: James Mina • Mileage: 295,274 Miles • Added: 2009-01-26 • Modified: 2014-11-05
Major Repairs: Radiator replaced at about 180,000 miles, A/C evaporator replaced after five years. Just replaced the dreaded coolant pipe which runs alongside the driver's side cylinder head.
Comments: This car is insanely reliable! It has never failed to start once, never missed a shift, never hesitated, never stalled - ever. Original starter, alternator, A/C compressor, power steering pump, drive axles, front hub bearings, radiator fans. Uses 1/2 qt of oil in 3000 miles. No rattles or squeaks. The first time the "Check Engine" light came on was at 204,000 miles due to an upstream O2 sensor heater failure. I cleared the code and the light stayed out, but I replaced the sensor anyway. The only thing that does not work is the driver's seat heater, and that is because the replacement cushion is NLA. The car is cosmetically beautiful with very few nicks, no dents, no rust. We bought this car new in May, 2000 and have no plans to replace it in the foreseeable future. We also have a 1999 300M with only 134,000 miles. I didn't hesitate to buy this car used because our original one is so good.

Comments: Made it to my goal of 300,000 miles. At 316,200 miles car continues to run great. Finally had to change the cylinder head at 280,000 miles and the transmission at 292,000 miles. Now, the cars continues on, running good. Oil consumption, 1 quart every 2000 miles.
1999 Chrysler LHS (3.5 liter V6 motor)
Owner: Known, not shown • Mileage: 360,000 Miles • Added: 2011-09-03 • Modified: 2014-10-28
Major Repairs: Radiator and transmission and that's it. The rest is all original. Just replaced the front struts and spring on 10/27. The shop said they had never seen a car that looked this good with over 350,000 miles. Still going strong!!!!
Comments: I purchased this car at an auction where it had been donated by it's original owner. Chrysler dealer maintained for everything from oil changes to wiper blades and still looks and runs like the day it was driven off of the showroom floor. This is one amazing car!

I cant say enough about how wonderful our stay was and we are terrible picky:) Our first night was in the luxurious Smith suite. We came to the Louis XIV room for our second and third night. We are so in love with every detail from the decor to the romance and luxury we stayed an extra night! We have a dog a daughter and jobs but we rearranged all that because we just weren't ready to leave this paradise.

12w, 1dShadow Day, Revisited; The Boneyard, Expanded12 comments · 139 views
I've been stuck on "Shadow Day" for quite awhile, to the point where the rest of my writing has stopped. For this reason, I have reluctantly revoked the story until I can develop a good resolution for it.
Part of the problem is the Breezies. My original resolution involved re-introducing the Breezies into the MLP universe and I was knocked a-kilter when the series decided to do this without consulting me first. (This is the second time the series has made me abandon a story; I was happily working on a story about a solitary shapechanger, and then the series introduced a whole race of shapechangers. And, try as I might, I couldn't figure out a good way to distinguish my character, the Munkydo, from the Changelings.) I kind of trapped myself by publishing the "Stormy Weather" bits; try as I might, I couldn't figure out a way to get to my desired ending without the Breezies. (Although, Diamond Tiara, Ponyville's new expert on the wonders of methane, had this idea for a stinky fuel-air bomb...)
A second part of the problem, which many of the kind respondents have noted, is that "Shadow Day" started wandering all over the place. Frankly, I kind of fell in love with the idea of mixing and matching the characters and their roles and I enjoyed trying different things out. This was fun for me, but I don't think it was much fun for the reader. I want to re-focus the story on the four main characters, Twilight, the Mayor, the Mayor's secretary and Pinkie. Each of them has something to teach the other and I don't want that little story lost amidst the sturm und drang of Ponyville battling a Storm Giant.
I hesitated over the "revoke" button for quite awhile, because I feel it is unfair to the many good respondents that shared their encouragement and thoughtful criticisms with me. But I also feel I owe them a better story than the mess o' pottage that I have produced so far, so I hope they will forgive me.
From this point on, I will only publish completed stories. No reader, I think, needs to waste time on some half-baked tale when there are plenty of other tasty treats available.
While I am working on other things, one project that I keep in front of me is a re-write of "The Boneyard." I originally wrote this for a competition and, as many of my respondents have noted, the story suffers for my attempts to compress the story below a word limit. I'd like to slow the pace of the opening down a bit, spend some more time describing the setting and the characters, particularly the revenants. I want to include a scene I wrote about the impact the of Come to Life spell in Equestria, but had to cut for length. "The Boneyard" is my "Earth Ponies are magic" story and I hope, with a bit more work, to help you feel what I felt, when I realized that Earth Ponies, across the span of eons, still see each other as family.

I'm sorry I've been away for awhile. Personal issues. Let's move on.
I'm kind of stumped about where to go with "Shadow Day." The story spun out of my control at some point, I think because I was confused about where the series was headed. (I really thought that Twilight would end Season Four much like she began. I never imagined her being punched through a mountain!) I think I need to make this story much smaller, and focus just on Twilight, Pinkie, Marigold and Fletcher. While I like the bits about Filthy Rich and his daughter, Diamond Tiara, and adore the scene with Tank, I think this story needs to be pruned a lot.
I'm pleased that the end of Season Four validates (or, at least, doesn't contradict) my story, "The Tree That Blooms in Darkness."
That said, while I puzzle over what to do with "Shadow Day," I'm now working on "Bad Gateway," a sequel to "Tonight I Shall Be Laughter." Yes, the title was inspired by an error message I've sometimes observed here on FIMFiction. "Bad Gateway" is about Captain Bucephalus struggling to command the odd lot of ponies assigned to him by the generals of the Royal Guard: a couple of Pegasus ponies, some eccentric Unicorns and the Cheese Family, who rival the Apples in their fecundity.

This evening, I decided to fix up some issues with my story, It Is My Fate To Enter Every Door.
Okay, fine. Pinkie Pie has an older sister. I fudged my story to admit that.*
Per Benman's suggestion, I've rearranged the opening, so that Emma's story comes to the fore.
Most importantly, I've added a scene with Vixen the Clever and her nemesis, Laelaps the Hunter. The business with Vixen follows the pattern of mortals dealing with fay spirits. The story of Laelaps is softer; I liked the idea that Laelaps is fond of Vixen, despite her treachery.
*Fudged again: Matilda Victoria Pie: Maud. I like that the daughters of Clydesdale Pie have these odd, grandiose names. Is it his influence, or hers?

I guess at some point in your working life, you will encounter the Myers-Briggs personality profile. This is a kind of four-by-four Sorting Hat that will reveal which of the sixteen houses you belong to.
I'm an ISTJ. Which, in English, translates to "minion." I am the orc laborer beneath the White Tower, forging swords. I am the contractor on the Death Star, working for benefits. I am one of those ridiculous rubber-suited guys trashed by Mr. Incredible, who were only working for the weekend and free beer.
As I was sitting through my last lecture about Myers-Briggs, I entertained myself by sorting the Mane Six by temperament. Most were easy-peasy:
Rainbow Dash: Artisan. Stimulus-seeker, duh!
Twilight Sparkle: Rational. Knowledge-seeker. She lives in a library!
Applejack: Guardian. Security-seeker. AJ epitomizes the Guardian type.
Fluttershy: Idealist. Identity-seeker. How many times have we seen Fluttershy struggle to re-invent herself through her caring for her friends and critters?
The last two have puzzled me.
Pinkie Pie. You might assume she is an Artisan. But she lives not for herself, but for other ponies' smiles. I judge her a Champion, a subset of Artisan. The idea that Pinkie is introverted may seem counter-intuitive, but we have seen ("Party of One") that she has a rich inner life.
Rarity. You could make the slam-dunk of Aritisan and call it a day, but I'm not so sure. I see her as INFJ: introverted, intuitive, feeling and judgmental. It might surprise you that I think of Rarity as introverted, but look at the facts: come rain or shine, good fortune or ill, she works in solitude in her shop and holds to her inner vision. She is a Counselor, I reckon.
The Myers-Briggs test is not destiny, of course. But thinking about it might give you some insight into a character that you thought you understood. And, if you take the test yourself, some insight into your own thinking.

A confession: as a teenager, I adored The Man from U.N.C.L.E. novels. Do not be surprised if this means nothing to you. You are young and these are stories from another age. The Invisibility Affair! If you had an invisibility cloak, of course you would drape it on a zeppelin! That's just what supervillains do!
James Blish, an author I had admired for his Cities in Flight novels, wrote the earliest Star Trek adaptations which, to be honest, were little more than transcriptions of episodes. Later writers of Star Trek, in this forbidden zone between the original series and its sequels, were happy to flesh out the odd corners of the universe. (How Much For Just the Planet?)
Alan Dean Foster wrote Splinter of the Mind's Eye, the first Star Wars novel. I'm still a little uncertain about the relationship between Foster and Lucas. There are elements of Splinter that only bore fruit in Revenge of the Sith, years and years later.
All of these guys had it easy. They were writers for series that were complete or, in Foster's case, in the gap between the first film and its sequel.
And, here I am, writing My Little Pony fanfiction, an ongoing series, and contemplating an upcoming episode title: It Ain't Easy Being Breezies.
I have written one story that featured the Breezies, in G3 Equestria. In a couple of incomplete fanfics, not posted here, I've hinted that the Breezies and Derpy are good friends.
I had this idea, in Shadow Day, that Derpy at last saves the day by convincing her tiny, Breezy friends to turn their monstrous storm castles away from Ponyville. I never imagined that the Breezies, or anything like them, would appear in Season Four. I'm not sure where to go with my story now.
This is our fate, I guess, as fanfic writers. We have to roll with the punches. Hey! Once, I was writing this great story about a shape-changing creature entering Ponyville. The plight of the shape-changer was moving me to tears. And then, of course, we learned about the Changelings, an entire race of shape-changers. Sigh. My story was tossed into the bit-bucket, never to be seen again.
Sorry. This is basically a rant. I need to resolve Shadow Day without the Breezies. I've got this idea about Diamond Tiara and methane. I hope it works out.
UPDATE: Nuts to it. I'm going with the Breezies. "Ready, Whoopsie Daisy?" "After you, Trough Aloft." "Ha ha ha! No, after you, Sky Blink." They nod. "Then, it's settled. Together, it is!"
- ...
Apologies for the title to PhantomFox ("Sunny Skies All Day Long").
"[F]linging his eager craft through the clawless halls of air" is, more-or-less from John Magee, Jr's poem "High Flight."
"Feathered Canyon" is a reference to Joni Mitchell's "Both Sides Now." A good name for Rainbow's house, don't you think? In contrast, Gummy's dilemma has nothing to do with America's "Ventura Highway."
Stephanos Eridanos Magnus might be translated as "the Great All-Encompassing River." My best effort at making sense of "Steven Magnet."
Pinkie's comments at the end about "messing about with boats" is, of course, a wink to Kenneth Grahame's Wind in the Willows. And "three ponies in a boat" is a nod to Jerome K Jerome's Three Men in a Boat (to say Nothing of the Dog).
*drops everything*
Must read!
And wasn't that worth it!
To quote Gummy: Wow! Just Wow!
Oh this is brilliant - with the happy ending, and Rarity having tea with her old friend.
Oh, that was just delightful! Marvelous pun hidden in plain sight with the Oolong tea, and do I detect Stephen King references in the capitalized way Gummy thinks of ponies, along with the mention of the behavior of balloons?
See you soon in the feature box, I'm sure!
These pet stories are always fun to read.
But you ain't got to make sense of Steven Magnet, any more than you got to make sense of Diamond Tiara's cache of explosives. It's just a joke about Youtube's arbitrary auto-captions that needs to have died a long time ago.
So Rainbow Dash is Gummy's personal saviour? I can see it now: Rainbow Dash, First Mare to Perform the Sonic Rainboom in Generations, Element of Loyalty, Future Wonderbolt & Saviour to Small, Adventurous Reptiles!
Or to put it another way RDFMPSRGELFWSSAR.
More awesomeness. And I can see Dash learning to enjoy Dickens!
And at last, a happy ending! Great job using Steven, too; he's not a character that appears often in fics.
Truly a most epic story. I love how Gummy's deity is the Almighty Sobek.
But why, I must ask, did he choose to appear in the form of an effeminate sea-serpent?
But that's part of the fun, isn't it? Trying to make sense of the often nonsensical parts of the "canon" (quoted, since "Steven Magnet" isn't exactly canon).
It seemed reasonable to assume that "Steven Magnet" is a corruption of "Stephen Magnus" (Big Steve) since Steve surely is big (as large or larger than any of the dragons we've seen to date). "Stephanos" (from the Greek) means something like "encompassing" or "encircling". "Eridanos" (again, from the Greek) is both a real river and, in mythology, a river than encircles the world. Add a little Latin (sorry) and you could get Stephanos Eridanos Magnus (the Great River that Encircles the World)
Here's the thing, though. "Steve's" design is clearly based on a Chinese Dragon, and Chinese Dragons are kind of a big deal. (Paired with the Chinese Phoenix; well, hello, Philomena!) Sobek, in Egyptian mythology, was one of the World Creators, associated with the Sun God, Ra.
As I hint at in this story, I think of Steve as an Old God, much diminished and eccentric, a relic of a time when the Everfree covered all the world. He was the analog of Celestia in the Old Lands, before the subtle magics of the Earth Ponies domesticated Equestria. Though reduced, he is a figure of importance within what remains of the Wild Lands. (Not unlike Tolkien's Treebeard, come to think on it.)
And I think of him less as effeminate than playful, grown childish and, yes, vain in his old age. But there was a long eon when he and his children ruled the earth. Perhaps they do no longer, but they deserve our honor and affection.
"Stephen Magnet" was the result of YouTube's horrible caption feature naming him such for no good reason during the episode.
Gummy, if you can squeeze between the crack of the door and floor, you're not predator. You're prey!
So. Adorable!
Gummy looked at them as if he had never seen them before. Living with THE PRETTY PINK THING, balloons were a natural part of the environment, like earth and air and wax teeth.
You have no idea how much I laughed at that line.
I loved this so much. Gummy, you deserve a montage song for all your hard work!
Ah, this was a fine little read! Thank you for providing it!
Also, congratulations on making EQD!
"Gummy congratulated himself on reclaiming his fierce alpha predator heritage as he huddled quietly in his box waiting for a group of pastel-colored unicorns to leave."
That line absolutely slew me. You have a dry sense of humor - I like it.
Was Gummy based off of krogan? I AM ALLIGATOR! GRAWR!
Next time I am faced with a moral quandry I shall stop and ask myself: "What would Rainbow Dash do?"
I love THIS STYLE OF WRITING. Really. It reminds me of Problem Sleuth.
It's interesting how he doesn't refer to Pinkie as a pony. Perhaps he knows something we don't.
If I'm reading correctly; all Gummy wanted to do was breed?
Well done, Gummy. A masculine reptile is the only appropriate comment.
Brilliant. I didn't realise immediately that Steven Magnet was the river dragon, but when I did I laughed so hard I headbutted my desk. A triumph.
Oh, Rarity. You may not wish to have been so coy when Ponyville River is swarming with Gummy's dumpy green progeny.
If is isn't already. Equestrian ecology is pretty darn exciting.
Yay, that was fun!
"We walked together in those Old Lands, you and I, the serpent's eyes said to Gummy. We strode the earth as kings. We chose to share our world with the small, fast, warm-blooded ones. A mistake, perhaps. But we love and honor them. And they, in turn, must honor us and our ways. The relentless and unforgiving ways of the Predator."-Steven Magnet
Gods own speed, you magnificent sonuvabitch!
Also, I think Steven is a mix between a Fjord Linnworm and a Jiaolong. AKA a great big dragon who protects the waters of his territory.
It's the Circle of Life
And it moves us all
Through despair and hope
Through faith and love
Till we find our place
On the path unwinding
In the Circle
The Circle of Life.
Gummy: I tell ya, I'm all right now, but last week I was in rough shape. I went to see my doctor... Doctor Vidi-boom-ba. Yeah...I told him once, "Doctor, every morning when I get up and look in the mirror I feel like throwing up. What's wrong with me? He said, "I don't know, but your eyesight is perfect."
yes, swimming... lol
i wounder if the gender ratio is as far off as it is for the ponies.
Stealth, cunning, guile… these are my inheritance. I AM ALLIGATOR! GRAR! Respect me, Ponyville!
"Why! It's Gummy!" declared Rarity. "Pinkie Pie's dear little… creature."
yes swimming nothing else, just swimming. Okay this story KILLED ME. I LOVE THIS STORY truly gummy is a fiece predetor againts the cute school ponies and pastel colored unicorns. BUT wow i love this story this is amazing. also i lov the names of everybody and just well eeverything, trully this is the explination of gummy
ps i belive in rainbow dash
Oh ho ho my God, that last paragraph made me laugh so hard. :'D
This is one of the funnest, best light-hearted style stories I've ever read. Spectacularly written, too. And I found that Rainbow having a (very) soft side to her was perfectly in chararcter. Well done! :D
Oh my gawd. An interaction between Gummy and Dash in a fanfic that doesn't involve Dash having a phobia of him and him trying to gum her to death?
You have made a NEW AND WONDROUS THING.
Cardboard box: too small to actually contain Pinkie (probably).
Important that. She once managed to hide inside a can of soda (unopened no less)
Wonderfully well done! I just love the style in which you portrayed Gummy's thoughts. As a zoology buff, I found this story to be original, charming and inventive. Will definitely be you to my stalk watch list, now that I've finished the story.
I really liked this story. Best bit was when Rainbow Dash turns out to like erudite literature (I've read A Tale of Two Cities and "Dude, make up your mind already" had me in stitches) and looking after little lost animals when no one's looking. That part would make a great story idea in itself.
I'm impressed with the level of detail you put into the story. I didn't even catch half the references until I read the comments, but mostly I'm talking about how you depict the pony world through Gummy's eyes. The narrative switches were excellent; another good bit was when Twilight goes from deducing that Gummy is under the box to composing a letter to Celestia about it. The fact that the letter was played completely straight only made the comedy so much greater because of the strong mismatch between well-intentioned Twilight and poor Gummy.
If I had to criticize, I'd probably say that making Steven Magnet appear as Sobek incognito came out of left-field. I get it now you explained it in the comments (rather cleverly too, but since I don't know Latin that well, is that what Stephanos really means or is this Canis Latinicus?), and in hindsight I rather like it, but not when it suddenly appeared in the story as it did. Also, Carrot Cake's speech seemed a little odd. His first line makes him sound like an age peer, not like a parent, and that comment about griffons and foreign food makes him seem a little racist. Was it a reference to Gustave le Grande or something? Lastly, the final section with Pinkie considering the Pony Pet Play Date didn't seem to focus on Gummy at all save for one last line. Considering we've just spent most of the fic following his thoughts, this seems a little rushed.
Still, it was great fun while it lasted. A fav and a like from me!
Steve may or may not be Sobek. There may not even be a Sobek except in Gummy's mind. But, being who he is, I imagine Steve's encountered this sort of shock and awe from reptiles before, and knows how to deal with it. I thought he was kind and understanding, in the way I think Princess Celestia is, knowing that someponies are a little scared of her.
The "what griffons would eat" was an allusion to Gustave Le Grand, as you inferred. I was thinking of Carrot Cake as less "racist" than merely provincial. And, just maybe, with "strudel" he's moving outside of his comfort zone as a baker. With strudel, he might have to "up his game."
As for the ending, I preferred to leave the end to the reader's imagination. I rated the story for everypony. And I thought Pinkie's obliviousness was pretty much Pinkie-as-usual.
