Nightly Roundup #855

Hope you all had a wonderful holiday and are just as tired as these ponies here. Next up is New Years so lets make the most of these scant few days before we ring in 2014! Let's leave 2013 on a good note, eh?

Story: The Shadow of a Doubt

[Shipping]

Author: Ardensfax

Description: Ten years have passed, and even the best of friends have begun to drift apart.

Twilight Sparkle finds old regrets are beginning to weigh upon her, keeping her trapped in the past. However, the bustling, decadent nights in Canterlot are made for sharing secrets, and tonight, an old friend is waiting for her among the crowds. Perhaps a familiar face and a guiding hoof could be enough to lighten the young princess's burden.

C&D Is Magic

In this entertaining and informative video, the team behind the Fallout: Equestria game adaptation share some knowledge and know-how in the realm of understanding copyrights, trademarks, and the dreaded "cease and desist." It's a good place to start with learning about these issues, so check it out after the break!
