Royal Brisk said...

Been looking forward to this for some time now.

Hubba_Bubba said...

How regularly will you update this story? I loved the On A Cross and Arrow, but I ussualy only read Completed stories since I hate cliffhangers + long wait time (like Transcendence).

:)

BlankFlankBrony said...

I feel not unlike Filly Pinkie upon first seeing a Sonic Rainboom. Time to read! 8D

BlankFlankBrony said...

*finishes reading the chapter... and the preview for the next chapter*

I have this huge grin on my face, and I doubt that I could remove it, even if I wanted to.

This has made my day. ^_^

Multiversity said...

Dangit! CLIFFFHANGEEEERRRR!!! Well, shoot. How long until next update? Estimates?

Kesono said...

Sequel to On a Cross and Arrow? ME GUSTA.

Alphaetus Prime said...

OH. MY. GOD.
It has interrupted my seventh rereading of On a Cross and Arrow.
I AM TOTALLY OKAY WITH THAT.

OMG!!!

I don't normally post comments before even reading a fic, but I have been waiting for this for so long, well only like two or three months, still a newish fan and all, but still this is going straight to the top of my reading list.

Mister Tulip said...

This has forced my metaphorical hand. Time to reread On a Cross and Arrow, which I've been delaying doing for the past couple days (specifically hoping to do it before this came out actually, lol).

etnoika said...

artrcland said...

My day has officially been made!
Thanks!!

FluffyWuffs said...

I thought this sequel would never happen.

Neros said...

OHMYGODFINALLY!!!!!

On A Cross and Arrow was the second fanfic I've ever read ( and my first long one!), so I have extremely fond memories of it. I've been waiting about 3-4 months for this.
I have a book report due yesterday that I have yet to start, but it can wait. I have priorities.

So, how many hours do you think it'll take for this to reach 6 star?

SteveNoBeard said...

HHNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
Took you long enough -.-

LilBlkPony said...

When I saw the picture I knew it looked familiar; when I saw the title, I nearly lost control of my bladder. YEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSS

The Ugly Tuco said...

MRGRFRRRR

This is my Valentine.

Firemane said...

with any luck this will also be posted to FIMFiction.net so can track it there and read from my tablet.. googledocs is such a pain to read on my tablet..

The J.ster said...

ohmygoshohmygoshohmygoshohmygosh! A sequal!

Cador_2004 said...

@Marshal

There's more after the part where Applebuck meets the CMC.

Neros said...

I just finished this while listening to the LOTR soundtrack
It was amazing.

To be honest, this chapter seemed a bit short. Hopefully future chapters will be longer than this, but that's really all I can criticize. Your writing is still phenomenal, the characters are believable, and the cliff-hanger you ended on is killing me. I can guess where this story is going, and I quite like it. But I know you will completely blow away my expectations next chapter, because you are an alicorn among bronies.

In conclusion...
POSSIBLE FORESHADOWED SWEETIEBUCK SHIPPING FTW!!!!!!!!

Norcon72 said...

Oh. My. GOD! It actually came out! You had me worried there Cogwork.

Multiversity said...

Jeez. You lot have been waiting impatiently, haven't you? Only the first chapter and already it's got 55 comments. 56, now, actually.

Ardashir said...

Woohoo, yes! I will enjoy reading this.

Muffinsforever said...

What the carp? Another story I HAVE to read, lol. :P

Eversor Mundius said...

My gosh i'll be looking forward to updates on this as much as actual episodes i reckon

Blackbelt said...

FINALLY!!!!!!

EonMaster said...

"Hell, it's about time!"

My first thought when I saw the description.

KBNinja said...

YYYYAAAAAAA ....... SOMEONE DRAW A GENDER SWAPPED LUNA

KBNinja said...

Update this once a day or I will kill you, you should have saved up 3 or 4 chapters.

Solar Flair said...

Omigoshomigoshomigooooooosh. *read*

Ismaldi4ever said...

ALL HELL IS ABOUT TO BREAK LOOSE!!!

Jack Clover said...

AWWWW YEAAAAAHHHH


Its about time this showed up.

Hinting at sequels and then not following up would make me a sad pony.

Kaden1991 said...

By Solaris's mighty windswept beard!
I must read!

PaladinDrakkenwolf said...

The journey I thought would not continue...

nemryn said...

Aw yeah, I've been waiting for this. I'll be especially interested in seeing how you make Trixie x Presto happen, given the setup you've got here.

Vieral said...

I'm so glad this is here. major props, Conner, for getting this up within days of the date you gave. ^.^

Leo Archon said...

Woo-hoo! Months of waiting, and it's finally here! The long-anticipated sequel to one of the best fics ever written!

Love the teaser at the end of the fic. Connor Cogwork, you have made my day! I shall look forward to this being continued eagerly!

Dj-Equestria said...

it looks like a conversion beaur story imnot complaining though i love them i hope it is

Lord Artemis said...

Yay! I hope it updates as fast as OACAA did!

Mooch said...

Woohoo, the sequel!! And already off to a good start!! Man, can't wait for the next chapter, I hope poor Pinkie won't be too disappointed to know Berry didn't come along. But I think, it would probably be best, for the good of Equestria and everyponies sanity!

karrotline said...

oh my cod, YESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYES!!!!!!!!!!!

RedSquirrel456 said...

I am going to read the crap out of this.

Violet Droplet said...

"Alright, let's just give EQD one last check before I start my homework for the evening. I got a ton of work though, so I'll just save anything I find for later..."

*checks the last few posts of the day... and notices a rather familiar drawing on one of the posts, and then notices the name which was mentioned in a previous story she'd read that was supposed to be the sequel of said story*

"... I-it updated!? It actually ACTUALLY updated!? OHMIGOSH YESYESYESYESYESYESYESYES-YESSSSSSSS~~~! I gotta read it- No! I have homework, and when I say I have homework I mean I have a LOT of homework! But this is my favorite story, and I can't go another hour without getting my fix of this awesome super-duper story! Oooooh, but my homework.... I'll just read this story and then stay up late to get all my work done. I gotta get up real early in the morning though... I'll need an energy drink though- wait, I have an energy drink!!! Ponies, here I come~!"

Confound these ponies, they drive me to insomnia!!!

Sunstone said...

The cutie mark expert would be "drowning in blank flanks"? I'm not sure if that was intentional or not.

Dusty the Royal Janitor said...

AHHH!!! AFTER ONE THOUSAND YEARS IT'S WRITTEN!

IT'S TIME TO READ THE HELL OUT OF THIS STORY

bookman said...

This is the best possible thing!! I'm so excited and reading that ending and the preview of the next chapter was so incredibly nostalgic. Even though it wasn't that long ago On a Cross and Arrow finished

Sasparilla Fizz said...

OMG, You put out the sequel! Hijinks ahoy! <3

GWGV said...

Yay, the sequel is finally ready for consumption! Cross and Arrow is one of the best MLP fanfics I've ever read, and I have faith that this will fully measure up to it!

Thunder Splash said...

BEST WAY TO END VALENTINE'S DAY EVER!!! I've been waiting so long for this fic! On a Cross and Arrow is what got me into the fandom and when i decided that i truely was a brony. This was the best valentine i got all day. /)^3^(\

ShadesofGrey18 said...

...Well, when I saw this, I took a step back from the computer and did an actual backflip in excitement. I may or may not have shrieked in joy. <_< >_> ... I'm looking very forward to the next chapter.

Melodia said...

What a time of day to discover the Epicness :/

D.A. said...

herewego.jpg

But seriously, really looking forward to reading through this one. Cogwork's previous work 'On a Cross and Arrow' was fantastic and had me checking fimfiction and ponychan on a regular basis for his updates. I expect great things from this story.

Best part is, its all (by proxy) Trixie's fault.

Toasty said...

I have all the stories from the Cross and arrow saga on my computer, so happy that there are some new stuff on the way

RisingStar said...

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Doesn't BEGIN to cover it!

Sotsim said...

WAAAAAAAAAHH!!! WAAAAAAAAHHHH!!! WAAAAAAAAAHHH!!! AT LAAAAAAST!!! IT'S HEEEEEEEERE!!! THE SEQUEL TO THE FIRST FANFIC I EVER READ!!!
(adds to a list I keep of fanfics I have to read with a "Must Read" tag and begins to wait impatiently for the chance to read it, which will be probably tommorrow at night :D)

The E-Nine Killers said...

On the next chapter: Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiet

Chibi-Sama said...

I WAITED FOR SOOOO LONG TO READ AND I READ IT!

I WAITED FOR SOOOO LONG TO READ AND I READ IT!

FartPoilce2012 said...

OMG!!!!!!!!!!! FINALLY!!

FartPoilce2012 said...

I hope it's like the last story where it changed POV :D

That Girl With The Hat said...

This is the greatest day of my life since Derpy spoke.

LordOfTheWrongs said...

Psst. It's "half-pipe", not "half-pike".

guitarfan01 said...

Existential crisis? I'm only 2 chapters into Cross and Arrow and now I'm planning to read this one.

FartPoilce2012 said...

I love the rainbowdashxrainbowblitz!! We better see this! Lol

KingOfTheRubberDucks said...

Sequel YEAH! :D and looking good so far

Warwolf said...

When are we getting the next chapter!? It's been two months now.

Conner Cogwork said...

I seriously apologize for the lack of updates. It's been slow writing for me. Not a whole lot of inspiration going on, I'm afraid.

I'm hoping that'll change pretty soon though. It may not be very big, but there IS a chapter coming. I'll make an effort to not let updates be so sparse from now on.

Cador_2004 said...

Take your time Conner, I just want to see what you finish what you started. Also Suddenly Trixie.

Kroqgar said...

OH SWEET ZOMBIE JESUS IT'S HERE

Leo Archon said...

Aaaand UPDATE! And Trixie seems to suspect something...This ought to be good.

And poor Applebuck can't catch a break...I'm looking forward to the filly CMC's reactions when they find out just who he really is.

Please, try to update a little faster. This work deserves to be finished!

Melodia said...

I love Pinkie Pie, I really do.


A shame the chapters are so small so far, but what's there is gold. Quality over quantity and all that...

So want to read more, of course.

PopeHatSkeleton said...

I'm hoping for a guest appearance by Mrs. Turnip, Roxie, Monsieur LeFlour and Lady Lintsalot.

Tangelo said...

Okay, I've figured it out thanks to this new chapter and the Sweetie Chronicles update: dimension-hopping turns anypony and everypony into massive bags of hormones, regardless of age. Keep it up, 'cause that's awesome XD.

Federhengst said...

I really like the "coupling" you did with the Sweetie Chronicals in this update - you are the first author who does this AFAIK :-)

ADavidO1987 said...

Minor complaint. Mr. Cake's cutie mark is a trio of Carrot cakes. Not Brownies. He's Carrot Cake. His wife being Cup Cake.

Insanepwny said...

Will this piece ever be continued? I really loved the last one and i am super excited about this colt version of Trixie! On cross and arrow was wonderful and has introduced me to fan-fiction. I understand if it were to be discontinued but I would be eternally grateful if it were to be continued.

charizardag said...

there has been an update, chapter 3 is out http://www.fimfiction.net/story/10851/3/On-a-Whisper-of-Wind/Part-3%3A-Through-Eyes-Unused. http://www.fanfiction.net/s/8026934/3/On_a_Whisper_of_Wind

TenchiFreak5 said...

Oh boy. Cutie Mark Crusaders Petty Theives Yay!




Anyway, can't wait for the next chapter.
