Day 27 and 28 didn't really have a story prompt. Double Trouble features Geist and Falling Snow's kids. Twins! The black one is named Strider (after Spirit's dad) and the sorrel paint is called River. People on Devart would correct me with things like "that's not how horse genetics work" "isnt Strider Spirit's dad?" and I'm debating on changing his name to avoid confusion and unwanted remarks like that. I was thinking Wander! Like Shadow of the Colossus C:

On day 28 I wrote out my thoughts about Geist and her strange presence online in the form of those edited screen caps. Throughout October I learned from people that she was really popular in Poland of all places. Someone told me that the internet was pretty new at the time, so kids saved/collected all kinds of images, not knowing about copyright issues. And no one spoke English so they assumed art like mine among others was official. 

I was pointed towards german and russian sites that had galleries of fanart, and more of those edited images. It was wild and pretty neat. I wrote how I realized a lot of kids go through phases like that. When I was 12-13 and had internet access for the first time, I hoarded Sailor Moon and DBZ fanart and I thought everything was official works because a lot was in japanese. I remember the infamous Dragonball AF manga XD

Originally I thought it was some people being butts and stealing my art, but it was just a bunch of kids who really liked Spirit and anything related to it. I'm flattered Geist could be a part of it X3

Moving onward, day 29 did have a story prompt. And the idea was what if Spirit lived in Bojack Horseman's world and the complete opposite of everyone's favorite dysfunctional celebrity.

Day 29: Costume

“Back in 2002, I was in a very famous horse movie 🎵

Bojack  knew this guy in college. One of those “free spirit” types who refused  to be broken by hardass teachers and the educational system. Once he  graduated, and started getting into show business,  Bojack never heard  from him again. But a few years after Horsin’ Around ended, a western  period piece called Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron was the talk of  Hollywoo, and it starred his old college buddy.

Yeah sure, the  movie was OKAY, he thought. But this guy makes one movie and suddenly he  thinks he's the big shot in Hollywoo? Pfft, whatever. What annoyed  Bojack the most was he had his life in order. The guy lived off the  royalties of his one movie, married the lead actress even, and they had  some kids. Several actually… He even had a good rapport with his mom!  Bojack was convinced he was hiding a dark secret. No one had it THAT  good. He thought about starting a scandal by dating his daughter or  something. But she was seeing some life coach looking dude, with wavy hair and all. Bojack thought about catching up with him but his Matt  Damon-like voice drove him nuts.”
