Blossomforth: What? It was good! Cocoon was there! He’s always great! Lyra: Ugh! Cocoon is the worst villain in the show. Why does everycreature like him? Blossomforth: He’s devious and sneaky and dangerous and… he looks cool! He doesn’t just fight the heroes, he tricks them!
Raindrops: The doppelgangers were pretty cool.
Lyra: The doppelgangers were pretty cool- Blossomforth: Cocoon made them! Lyra: How?! Where was this skill acquired? And why was it never used until now?! Nevermind how much of a waste it all was. That plot thread went no where! Blossomforth: He needed to find the source of the heroes’ powers! Lyra: Which never would have worked if the heroes were acting like themselves! The writers could have done anything to fill in that gap, but instead they introduced these six doubles and dumbed down even Twain and Jacob just so everything would “work out”. Just like always! Every time Cocoon shows up the heroes act like lunatics! [Pause] No offense.
Princess Luna: We shall not feign that no injury was incurred.
Lyra: Sorry…
Princess Luna: You are forgiven.
Raindrops: Did… you watch the episode, your highness?
Princess Luna: Indeed. We found the plot structure to be rather juvenile, but resigned that the objective was comedy. And in that regard, believe a moderate success was enjoyed.
Bon-Bon: Kinda weird not being the only adult in the room for a change…
P. Luna: From the future?! This is most serious, Lyra. We must get to the bottom of this post-haste! Tis a shame such a dreadful occurrence would fall upon this day of merriment.
Lyra: I don’t think you understand, your highness.
P. Luna: Have you the benefit of knowledge on this subject? Please, enlighten us as to the nature of this dash- is it of the Rainbow variety? And upon what am I to withhold our voice upon so as to avoid its “eyesore”? Lyra: I our? P. Luna: Eye hour? I-We said… Oh… Heh heh heh. Lyra: You’re a- P. Luna: Hahaha! Lyra: You’re breaking character your majesty! P. Luna: AH HAHAHAHAHA! Lyra: Hahaha!
P. Luna: Oh I so love participating in this every year! So much fun to overact!
Lyra: And I love having you here! Thank you so much for flying out here every year!
P. Luna: Wouldn’t miss it for the world!
Oh hoho, I think it’s been a while since I’ve been there!
We’ve regrettably been without such a blessing. Upon our return there were many a lesson to be learned. And there is no rubric to the knowledge of a millennia’s passing.
I for one consider everyday to be a fantastic opportunity to learn!
Well, I have been tutored recently on how to properly receive a foreign dignitary.
Ah yes… The dreaded foreign dignitary. Advisory in a conflict with stakes too great to lose, but impossible to win.
I had no idea.
And I thought I was the only one stressing out over their visit!
Far be it, Cadance. There can be no “friendly visit” when it comes to foreign affairs. One must receive them warmly, and make every effort not to offend. But also demonstrate your might and inspire awe. Affirm your solidarity to allies, and establish your dominance to the ambitious. And all in tandem. For today’s comrade is tomorrow’s political rival. And if you’re lucky then… Are you transcribing our conversation?
Me? Oh, I’m taking notes! This is incredible information! A first-hoof account, no less!
Being that our sister’s sun rests at a mere hour and quarter past noontide, the conceivable answers are too numerous to catalog.
You there! Unless you’ve some ulterior agenda, you’ll find it best to candidly reveal thy nature, rather than just thine presence!
Ah yes! We too like the way this celebration looks! ‘Tis most fanciful in its merry use of deceit!
Oh wondrous day! We always did enjoy a good tale of chill and fright! Shall we share a few?
I-I don’t know that there’s time-
A celebration would simply not be complete without regaling The Tale of the Filly’s Death-Glare!
Oh dear…
Ah-Hah! A clever ruse has left you baffled at your sudden change in conversation partner! Twas but a guest speaker! Her services, and many others, enlisted in celebration of a day for wily subterfuge! But worry not! For your hosts will soon return and once again attend to your inquiries!
What are you talking about this time, you silly? Though I do appreciate the clarification on that abbreviation. Thanks for taking the time to-
Behold! I, your Princess of the Night, have arrived to participate in your merriment! Present to us our assigned prompt so that we may commence with our entertaining monolog!
Oh! P-Princess Luna! I-er… I had to end the joke early! I, sort of ran out of asks I could use.
Oh… I see…
I’m so sorry, princess.
It is just that, we traveled all this way. Altered our sleeping schedule to make room…
I-uh… I still needed to go back and reply to a few comments. If you wanted, you could join me in-
And so we shall! Ha-hah! ‘Tis high-time we dispel the queer rumors of our frightening nature!
Yeah… Probably don’t want to use the word queer…
Has its conversational use changed as well over the millennia?
Ye- A little.
1) As far as I know, she still spends most of her time studying all the changes that have taken place since her imprisonment. She does seem to be regaining more of her own duties, though…
2) Ask Scootaloo what? Whether or not she had a dream that Princess Luna was in? What would that prove? But no, neither the Princess Luna or Celestia of my world have a tumblr. At least that I know of.
7) It was an interesting work in it’s own right, but not worth basing a continuity on. Accept it for what it was and let it go.
8) Please see three answers up.
1) Uh… Huh… That doesn’t sound made up.
2) Nice troll, buddy. Next you’re gonna to give me “proof.”
3) Most paparazzi don’t turn an entire town against themselves. That would be why it wasn’t their special talent, despite their evident skill. You gotta pick and choose who you write about.
4) Hard to say. Usually it has to do with how relatable the subject is. If it’s something the audience is supposed to relate heavily to, but the subject is off-the-wall bizarre to our culture, make them ponies. Instantly more relatable! On the other hoof, if any attempt to tie the subject to reality is being withheld…
5) Buddy, all the cool kids are hanging out with their friends.
6) Not in particular. I’m sure I’d like it if I did, but who has the time?
7) No, a villain is a technical designation by the Equestrian government designed to identify any entity that has made an attempt to over-through, take over, destroy, damage, or otherwise undermine Equestria’s authority as an international power, as decided by the Princess herself.
I swear, if I didn’t know any better, I’d say you bronies just sit there looking for loopholes. Almost like you think I’m making this stuff up on the spot!
Lyra here! Saw that filly Applebloom with one of these and thought it was pretty rad. I probably won't get the kind of following she has, but whatevs.
I've been asked if I'm a wizard and that somepony I don't know loves me. That's kinda cool, I guess.
Here's all the Drawings I've done so far (not that they're very good)!
Ah yes! We too like the way this celebration looks! ‘Tis most fanciful in its merry use of deceit!
