Whoops

For what everyone says is a dead site, it seems to me that tumblr still has a lot of interesting content still coming out. Still got some legs! But the era of Ask Blogs has become a niche, and I will say that this blog was one of the better examples of the kind.
I, uh, thanks! I never really considered it better or worse, I was just having fun with a project and seeing where it went
Death shine : hello fellow. Knights Guards. Men... Sorry I was told to make friends with other guards, its night to meet you both
( Sorry, the blog is sort of in this winding down mode. No more role-play, just explaining parts I never got to, such as why Luna was never nightmare moon in Westy's dimension, and why that dimension's Discord there was what destroyed that dimension)
OH SHIT WHADDUP OG ASK PONY BLOG FAM, WELCOME BACK TO DEAD WEBSITE
Yay dead website! Holy crap are there a lot of memories from here, but it'd be foolish to try to somehow live in the past from it
It's so awesome to see you on here again! Having you joking around again and seeing the fanart of Adamant & Westwood is really cool.
Glad to see that this tumblr is still around! And very impressed to see that you have notes and a story bible document. That puts you ahead of at least 90% of authors. Please consider posting your notes if you do decide to wind down the blog, as I'm sure I'm not the only one who'd find them fascinating!
I am winding down the blog, and fighting the same procrastination and anxiety about posting stuff as the procrastination and anxiety about posting an update back when I stopped making strips
Sorry to hear about the RL situation. The MLP movie has its flaws, but is still worth watching. I'd be very interested in a link to a story bible if you put it on dropbox or gdocs or the like.
I'm actually interested in watching it and seeing what they do since they take G4 into lore. I should probably finish watching the new Transformers trilogy too. Gotta make sure Best Pony is still there
I do have a story bible, but I have to make sure I don't have any personal information in it, as it does contain chat logs as well
Surprise! Gift art!
Seeing @askthenightguards come to life again has been a blast from the past and reminded me of how much I enjoyed the adventures of Adamant and Westwood!
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa thank youuuuuu
Belated happy birthday to @nightguardmod, celebrating the glorious return by drawing the true stars of tumblr, Westwood and Adamant of @askthenightguards, dressed up as some unknown noponies no one remembers anyway.
Happy Bday and enjoy!

Aaaaaaaa, thank you so much! I really need to get back to answering asks, especially of why I stopped
What if I glued shut your butt?
Sir, that’s my own personal comfort butt!
Just wanna mention I blame this blog entirely for introducing me to the concept of SCP Foundation of which I'm now obsessed with. It was a slippery slope all along
Mwahahaha. I have succeeded in my goals
Since Tirek and Nightmare moon are WCP's, does that mean the Mane Six have done the job of the Archivists, or is their style of neutralization different from what Adamant and Westwood do?
Yup!

They're considered a task force, and given how Twilight was their intern, it's all good
Of course, they use magic and friendship, where the bat ponies can use vorpal wings and combat. Because manly! or something. I dunno
Was there or is there and end goal to this little story, or has that changed due to the combination of parody and the inherent interactivity of this strange site?
Originally there was no end goal, but two emerged:
1. Explain any plot holes and oddities if you incorporate all of MLP, and by referencing Grimlock, all of G1 Transformers and Beastwars, and because the G1 TF has had crossovers with GIJoe, add that too
2. Tell Westwood's story as a means of me working out my own feelings. I think I'll move the art reflecting life bit elsewhere, but there were two endings. If I finished before G4 ended, it was going to be a happy ending where Westy deals with his demons. If I was unable to finish, LCP-7391 was going to rip its way from Westy's dreams into the dimension and basically be a down ending. I chose option 3, to stop at a cliffhanger because dammit, I kind of painted myself into a corner. That and the RL situation that spawned them had changed significantly
Has your list of WCPs had as much variation and change as the mainline SCP's of our world?
So I did treat WCP numbers in a less random way than SCP, given that they're a wide variety of authors. At first, I was random about my numbers, or rather, it was fourth wall meanings. Humanity was WCP-1984 because that's the year the movie/pilot came out for MLP. Grimlock was 2005 because that's the year Transformers: The Movie was set in. But as time went on, I made a rule that these numbers were in chronological order of discovery. The only WCP that matches up to its SCP counterpart is 008. SCP-008 was zombies, WCP-008 was the legend of the blanks copypasta.
So here's my file about WCPs. It didn't have anything about LCP-7391, and I can't remember exactly why it was 1937, but that might be the year about quasars or magnetars, given the nature of it
BTW, I’m going to tag all this as “Asked The Night Guards”
So Westwood. You still flying about to clear your head?
I really could not think of what to follow it up with. I tried "Adamant meets DayDream" to introduce her, or "Adamant talks about bat ponies" which is why I commissioned so much art of other bat pone; they were to be photographs in the comic
Westwood never got his degree at Miskatrottic, because of LCP-7391 happening before graduation. So his work in the LCP reserves, growing up with Manzanita who was in the LCP, all that he learned, and her influence when they escaped into this universe, is what got Westwood into the night guards in the first place. He could have earned it, but he was never tested. This contributed to him not getting checked by DayDream way back when
Anyone want to ask about the WCP numbers? 😸
Have you had to do much reorganizing over the years with the stuff you're containing?
You could say that:
Oh, if you did mean in story, I never really covered reorganization beyond hints of messy piles of books and scrolls
