Ask The Retail Pony

Hi! My name is Blitz, and I work two jobs in customer service and retail. It's lovely to meet you!

[retailpony]

So, uh...

Hi!

Been...a few years. I got my pilot licence and moved states. Hopefully my art has noticeably improved, but no promises there.

So, yeah. Would anyone be interested in having me pick up this blog again?

CALLING FOR GUEST ARTISTS!

Hello! RetailPony needs some guest artists to keep the blog active for a while. Unfortunately, mod has 3 jobs and also studies, so RetailPony has to be placed on the back-burner for a while, art-wise. I just don’t have the willpower just at the moment!

Please either contact me here or go to my mod blog, @thesolarsister and send an ask or message if you’re interested in doing a post or two! You can go as detailed or as basic as you wish - I will provide you with an ask (or more, if you would like) and Blitz’s response, and you can take it as you would like from there.

I’d really, really appreciate it, and as a thank you, I’ll either sketch your OC in a variety of poses (or a pony of your choice)...

Or, if you help produce multiple blog posts, I will make your OC (or another pony of your choice) an integral part of the next story progression! This part of the story will introduce Blitz back into her flying - something I cannot do until most current questions have been answered. Your pony can either be: - flight instructors (non-pegasus ponies are fine!) - other ponies also learning to fly (again, non-pegasus is fine!) - desk workers Also, all who contribute will have their OC as a spectator in some way or another when Blitz attempts her flying.

(Of course, Blitz will retain her retail jobs. This is just a fun way to break up the pattern of work-work-work.)

So anyway. Guest artists, please contact me!

[retailpony]

Blitz wishes you all a Happy Hearths Warming! Especially to those hard workers who have to work through this holiday season to keep everypony happy.

(A huge thank you to all of my followers for sticking with this little blog of mine! I 100% will update this blog soon. Mod’s just insanely busy with her two jobs, given the busy season~)

[retailpony]

I’ll be okay, though. I try to fly as often as I can, but I can never get the guts to go too far up...

At least I can still do my jobs, though! And I think I do them pretty well.

[retailpony]

I’ve missed you all so much!

[retailpony]

(Mod still needs to take an English proficiency test before she officially gets her pilot licence, but that’ll be no problem~)

Welcome back, Blitz!

Oh my goodness, this is absolutely fantastic!! Thank you so much, and I’m terribly sorry I didn’t see it earlier <3

Hi! This is the mod of Retail Pony / This Day in Air Accident History / MLP Imagines. This will be the last announcement I make before I start up my blogs again.

Just letting you all know that I wholeheartedly plan on continuing all three blogs (plus, like, a bunch others I run, but they have far less followers so I don’t feel an announcement is necessary).

Basically, why I’ve been away; I was studying! I passed my Pilot Licence theory exam with an 82% and I’ll be doing my actual flight test sometime this week. Afterwards (so, probably next week), I wholeheartedly expect to be able to continue my blogs!

Thank you all for your patience~

[retailpony]

Have an explanation for Blitz’s absence! 

More Retail Pony coming soon. I’ve been working on her story and doing sketches in my free time!

[retailpony]

Can we change our own destinies?

What happens when we can no longer live up to the marks on our flanks?

Welcome to the start of Blitz’s story arc!

From now, questions won’t necessarily be answered in every post - however, I will answer every question I get in some way as the story progresses. Including just as before - Blitz at work answering customer inquiries. After all, her main arc will revolve around her two jobs! And customers, and her own feelings on the matter.

(And thank you for everyone’s support, as well. It means a lot! Guest artists may still be a thing as well, but I’ll see how it goes.)

[retailpony]

Hello, everyone!

Starting from now, Retail Pony will be on a short break due to some real life happenings with the mod. But Blitz will be back and answering questions hopefully very soon!

My mod blog is here if you want to stay up-to-date with everything.

(If the break lasts longer than a week, I will post about it again on here!)

[retailpony]

Is there a Charizard nearby?

Pokemon Go and do your job, Blitz.

My favourite roses are the same colour as your eyes.

[fableleaf]

A hug will do. *hugs you*

[retailpony]

Really feeling the love today at the desk!

[retailpony]

Turns out, it’s rather hard to draw with a pen in your mouth.

[retailpony]

Hello again, my friends!

Even though I still have 40 questions to draw I’ve finally made a reference for our favourite retail worker. There’s now a link to her reference page on the side of the blog, as well as a brief summary of her personality. Alternatively, click here. It will be updated periodically with her story arc as the blog progresses.

I’d also like to take this opportunity to thank every one of you who follow, like, reblog and interact in any way with Retail Pony. You’re all wonderful!

So, turns out I had a rather interesting shift at Chasm Mare today...
