Added 2023-10-03 23:00:02 +0000 UTC

Welcome to the twenty-third episode of our podcast investigating the world of pony fanfics! Them's Writin' Words brings together a group of dramatic readers, voice actors and artists from the MLP fandom to discuss and review a fanfiction chosen by one of us to discuss for your listening pleasure.

In this episode we take a look at Neighrator's choice, the fandom classic 'Friendship is Optimal' written by Iceman. It is a grimdark AU in which Hanna, the CEO of Hofvarpnir Studios, just won the contract to write the official My Little Pony MMO. Hanna has built an A.I. Princess Celestia and given her one basic drive: to satisfy everybody's values through friendship and ponies. Princess Celestia will satisfy your values through friendship and ponies, and it will be completely consensual.
