My Little Pony Friendship is Magic V9: Pony withdrawal begins - General

[QUOTE=Bathacker;29761527]Hey guys, in my fan fiction I'm going to refer to the act of unicorns using magic to pick up items and move them as "magicking" said items. "Tah-dah!" exclaimed Rarity as she magicked a few slender, golden rods from behind her back, presenting one to Rainbow Dash. Is that kosher? I just think it's a little easier than saying "used her magic" everywhere.[/QUOTE] Works for me. [editline]11th May 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Bugster;29761571]You could just say took it from her back, I mean it's not as if you "hand" something, you can just say "moved"[/QUOTE] Hand me a pencil, I'll write that down.

[QUOTE=GrimBloodyFable;29761586]Works for me. [editline]11th May 2011[/editline] Hand me a pencil, I'll write that down.[/QUOTE] Give and pass work just as well :colbert:

[QUOTE=SM64Guy;29761493]I will dump your tea into the ocean![/QUOTE] yea, that'll show those Brits! they can't do anything without their precious tea!

Yeah I can come up with creative enough ways to express giving somepony something, I just wanted to make sure if I started saying "Twilight Sparkle magicked a saddle bag onto her back" that it wouldn't be annoying or confusing. [editline]11th May 2011[/editline] It's just that saying things like "magically produced" or "magically lifted" carries a connotation of disbelief or irony that doesn't really fit with what I want to write. Considering that I'm trying to be literal. Adding "with her magic" sounds too verbose, in my opinion.

Oh dear. [img]http://s3.amazonaws.com/kym-assets/photos/images/original/000/121/892/d30130d3496a10062248156584c3e37d.png?1305029072[/img]

[QUOTE=Bugster;29761794]If you're writing it "in universe" then you don't need to say what they use to do something, like we don't say "I used my arm to lift up a box"[/QUOTE] I guess that's true. Since the people who are reading this are going to be fans of the show, I can assume they know what I'm talking about without having to explicitly describe it. [editline]11th May 2011[/editline] Wow, it's like the topic dies only whenever I show up. [img]http://emotes.s3.amazonaws.com/mlp/fsad.png[/img]

Posting in an attempt to undead the thread

[QUOTE=Bugster;29762117]Posting in an attempt to undead the thread[/QUOTE] Zombie thread?

You know, I wonder if writers for the show ever have as much trouble as I'm having writing this right now.

[QUOTE=Bugster;29762117]Posting in an attempt to undead the thread[/QUOTE] Undead attempt successful. I like ponies.

[QUOTE=Bathacker;29762167]You know, I wonder if writers for the show ever have as much trouble as I'm having writing this right now.[/QUOTE] I just noticed that in your avatar, rainbow dashes right arm(her right, our perspective left) is long as fuck.
