Glory to the Ponystate

A blog of fandom joy, salt enough to make the Dead Sea flavourless, shark apologia, and, occasionally, ponies. Current focus: Bucky, superhero accountability, Stucky, MCU. Old Man Rogers is either a Skrull or Red Skull and Natasha deserved better.

Every time I see some joke about Star Trek-style teleporter technology I'm like "I should write a story about the potential of this technology re: the whole 'killing and copying people' thing and the ramifications of being able to essentially print people" and then I remember I already wrote it. Every single time.

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

#*two hours later* hey derin? what the fuck was that

Expected result of teleportation technology I think

#I WAS TRYING TO GO TO BED 😭😭😭#just reached the end of part 1 i can't stop send help#fiction

Read the rest in bed! Problem solved!

[duarzish]

#Holy fuck, this story changed me.

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

Good, that's what stories are supposed to do!

[antique-scarecrow]

Oh wow. Wow wow wow wow geez. Go read this

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

[annawry]

I say this with all the love in the world. What the fuck.

(Also, hey, go read this. You'll think you know what you're getting. You won't.)

[defat1]

No, that's about what I expected from a Derin short story. Those things stick with you forever!

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

If I'm going to go to the effort of typing it up it had better fuck people up or I might as well go play computer games instead

[autumnmercy]

Whelp, that just entered my category of “stories that aren’t technically horror, but really feel like it.”

That’s a good thing of course, the story was brilliantly written, and I’ll be thinking about it for a long time.

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

That category is most scifi

[inprisonforsparkling]

Just read this. What the fuck Derin

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

Stori

[dawnsiren]

Derin, what the fuck was that???? Cursed implications

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

Stori!

[tinycrowthings]

Derin, what the fuck.

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

I keep telling you guys! Stori!

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

#my grandpa liked your story#he says you have a marvelous imagination and developed a very unique story#and said the ending was poignant#I agree with him#great story

You guys heard it here first, mysterious-corpse's grandpa liked my story.

[omnilily]

I thought I had thought of all the fucked up implications. I had not. Not even close.

Derin, what the fuck?

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

There are way more fucked up implications that didn't fit this story, I'm considering returning to the topic with a new one at some point.

[ocean-again]

Derin, what the FUCK?

[gricekrispies]

WHAT THE FUCK IM CRYING YOU NEED TO MAKE THIS INTO A MOVIE

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

I don't know how to make movies. Best I can do is more short stories.

[histrionic-dragon]

Hold on, I thought I had read this, but turns out I only read part one?! Hoo boy. Buckle up, I guess.

#und keine fucking maultaschen?! sauerei

Das ganze Bild ist polnische Propaganda! 😂 Dreimal Pierogi plus Vareniki, als ob das nicht völlig das gleiche wäre, aber keine Maultauschen, Käsnudel oder Powidltascherl, diese Lurche!!

[cure-icy-writes]

the human mind is prone to catastrophizing when left unoccupied. And that’s why it’s important to always have a little Blorbo to rotate in your head. It acts as a protective charm of sorts to redirect your imagination away from harmful spirals

thoughts without Blorbo: oh my god I was so cringe in seventh grade why did I do that

thoughts with Blorbo: I haven’t considered the interactions with bleebus; I must rectify this immediately

Turns out getting a little silly with it is incredible motivation for my visual development phase, so here are some Guards! Guards! textposts!

HATE when a character seems intentionally designed for me to be obsessed with and it succeeds

[sometiktoksarevalid]

[hardrockerhippie]

At first i was like: why the hell is this on tumblr?! And then it suddenly made sense...

[ekjohnston]

This is incredible.

Dean coming out playfully 🩷💜💙

(can we take a moment or several thousand to appreciate that he came out to the audience using His Line "sonofabitch"? he's bi and it’s authentic to his hypermasculine cowboy ethos and we’re blessed. when you Dare To Defy stereotypes so hard it bodies the network who only ever paid lip service to the idea and failed to suppress you)

bonus:
