I feel the need to ask: Why? What in it depresses you so?

A good amount of the messages I got since the last update pretty much said, “RAIN CATCHER, YOU BETTER NOT FUCK/IMPREGNATE THEM.” And it’s kinda annoying.

Also, and this might be the unfair part, the messages in there just aren’t that good. Too many of them are incomprehensible, unrelated, or just plain stupid. And I say it might be unfair to say this because I’m comparing them to PC’s or Diaries’ asks.

I guess it’s just me having expectations and then getting disappointed.

How'd you like Canada?

I only went there to see Niagara Falls. And as everyone with a brain knows, it’s that tourism hotspots don’t reflect the true nature of the country or location in question. So I can’t answer this accurately.

Honestly, Canada was nice. Unlike every other country I’ve been in where there’s an obvious difference in culture, language, and society, Canada felt very familiar. The people were nice and friendly, too.

However, everything there was SO DAMN EXPENSIVE. Again, that was probably due to the tourist effect. We were planning to eat dinner in that revolving restaurant in the sky until we found out that the prices for meals were around $30 to $70! And the one thing that pissed me off was that the periscopes set up over the falls cost C$1 to operate for like 30 seconds! What the shit?!

You keep throwing in retcons, dude. I think you're just indecisive. My suggestion: don't try to match canon, or have your universe make sense. That's where madness lies.

I can’t help it though! ;A;

It’s too fuuuuuuuun.

But yeah, I should probably calm down with the revisions. It’s just that I feel like the stuff I’ve written when I was 14 isn’t as good as it should be. They feel outdated and too loosely tied.

Really, all the key things I’ve changed are: the name of the wing disorder, SB’s cutie mark story (which hasn’t been revealed publicly in detail yet), and the Spike saga (which also wasn’t explained in full detail). And all these were part of the Rev 3 rewrite last December.

At least, all this extra writing isn’t as bad as it was in 2012. And I made it through one whole year without scrapping everything is starting a fourth revision. That must be a good sign, right?

I’m gonna promise right here and right now: No more radical changes from here on out.
