>>2152 >For as much as you were channeling yourself, you sure wrote the dialog well to the characters. That first bit there could fit right in the show. I think you did an alright job with Celestia considering the subject mater. thanks, I appreciate that comments. That happened with the FiM season 1 opener with my Luna´s fic, the intended part initially was the 2nd part with Luna and Celestia, I just introduced it because I had to find a way to shoehorn it properly, same goes with this one. But thanks to that minor addition at first, the story could extent much further than the main message, I guess that´s the beauty of organic writing. You don´t only write what you want but develop a thing that you didn´t think you were going to write in the first place.
About Celestia, I am impressed to hear that but she was the most fitting for this and I had to find also a way to do something else beyond posting images without saying anything. I have found myself more comfortable writing Daybreaker funnily enough, mostly because I love using sarcasm.
>Celestia is not nessinarily stronger to the temptation but better at suppressing it (if that makes sense). Yeah, the problem is there for both sisters. Just that one has faced it right away several times and has reminded to herself what she should do. Luna has faced struggles, up and downs with it but she has overcome it and she knows there are ponies behind her that will have no doubt if she goes for that route. Meanwhile Celestia, only Dolores and Luna know what actually happened. This mostly happens because Celestia is obsessed of keeping her good image to the kingdom.
>I could run my self in loops thinking about Luna and Nightmare moon. Personally I lean to a similarly that NM ad Luna are indeed one, though some things both in the show contradict each other. FiM is not free of plotholes and much less when different writers come into the alicorn topic. I heard somewhere that writers are free of writing whatever they want in EQG as long as they don´t enter the alicorn topic and write about Luna and Celestia. I think Hasbro is planning to keep their backstory as a big appeal for season 9 or in the future. It´s taboo for them for now.
>Heck, Friendship is Magic and Lunar Eclipse even do if we take Luna's transformation at face value. The things that gives me a bit of pause and prevents me from just dismissing theoies is that, for all the changes is i writers and it being a show aimed for little kids originally, there was still things that were done with a certain intent and meaning, even in season 1. keep in mind that FiM was NOT supposed to have high amounts of lore or deep thinking at first, only 65 episodes of morals for children and that was it. It was not supposed to have continuity, a world that most RPG would love to have, lore to previous innocent events or characters (Gilda and the griffons for example) and so on. And yeah, season 1 had deep thinking to some extent but it was mostly reduced to simple slice of life stories. Lauren did a great job at establishing the world but we were mostly stuck in Ponyville and we only had a subtle arc with the Gala. That depth was mostly intensified, putting it into the front, and even managed to keep that childish feel (at times) in the end. FiM is unique at that. Seeing how little things that had some thinking but were mindless ideas turned out to be hugely relevant (in an unexpected way and schedule) that would define even entire arcs or feedback episodes.
