Thanks to Weirdraptor for giving me a subtitle. I've also put up the names and summaries of all the Season 1 episodes except for the season finale. I'll post those after Cold War is done due to spoilers.

You're welcome. I'm already starting to read through. I'll tell you what I think when I'm far enough along to get a beat on it.

Thank you for the suggestion and checking it out. Hopefully you should get the idea after the five-part premier or even before. I wonder what FiM could do with five parts. Here's episode 3. My Little Pony Legends 1x03: Cold War Part 3This one has a lot more dialogue than the last two and it makes me wonder if it would run a little long. However, there is a massive chunk where someone is talking over the action which would make it seem longer. Please check it out and tell me what you think.

Nice. You make pony society feel like a place that could have been on levels I will never meet. I like the treatment of the characters, though I wasn't expectig script form. That's alright, though, it makes it feel like I'm reading through the design of a show.
You are definitely a Wind Whistler and Fizzy fan (so am I). The two do play off of each other well. Fizzy's bubbly nature and Whistler's all-business attitude make a great duo.

Yes. I am a fan of them.
I wish I could draw so I could show the designs of the ponies. Maybe I can find someone who can draw them.

Also, its alright if you let some chapters run long. We're here to read, so we have patience and attention spans. I totally get that you're treating these like teleplays. I've been told that writers are always made to alter their length for the sake of an episode. Once, even Bruce Timm actually had to make a teleplay he thought was too long, longer. So there are multiple factors that would take an entire team to pick up on and have changed that just aren't necessarily going to come out just with a script typed out.

I said part of the reason for doing this way is that it gives me a sense of pacing. How long would an episode be?
I'm keeping the villain of the season hidden for now. We'll be made known of their presence at the end of Cold War. Any guesses as to who they are? I can tell you they're a classic Big Bad from the original series.

I know. I'm just saying it doesn't always have to be exact.
I'll have to sit on the second point for a while.

Again nice chapter. I liked your inclusion of danny, molly, and even TJ, and showing more of molly's life back on earth was a great idea! Nice use of lightning, too. I have plans in another story to go into my reimagined version of the Mountian boy ponies (Especially my adopted ponysona, Tornado Firehooves XD)

Lightning and the other Mountain Boys are unicorns in my version. Sunburst is a surgeon as his magic is healing wounds both internal and external. The others are collectively known as storm unit with Thundercloud as their leader.
Interesting you bring up Tornado. He's Gusty's husband in this and appears in the next episode.

Yeah, my version is over there in my avatar. Mary sue-ish, I know that's why I omitted him from twilight then, twilight now when the other mountian boy ponies showed up. Anyway, you had mentioned them being a unicorn corps before. Just curious, are you going to use Dr. Medicin or any of the G2'S?

No. The mares featured are the ponies released from 1983 through the end of 1985 (the first sets of so soft and twinkle eyed ponies.) Then there are the baby ponies issued in 1986 and the Big Brother and Mountain Boy ponies along with a bunch of OC stallions. More ponies will show up in later seasons, but I'm not going to include G2 or beyond.
