Quite funny, and while I normally support Luna in most things, I think I'm with Celestia and Twilight on this one.

why fluttershy, why?

"Fluttershy why?"? That's a tag not seen before -_o

smx said...

Fluttershy? My god, They're blaming Fluttershy? I wonder if Fluttershy has had a history.

Kitsune.Tales said...

Absolutely hilarious! I couldn't stop laughing when I learned where the prank came from! Very nice job.

Unlike I0x0r, I'll still support Luna in discovering why such a thing exists~

nukeiffum said...

I had a good laugh with this one. For some reason, I was reminded of that one other fic that had RD and Pinkie pranking Celestia with a fictionalized account of Twilight sexing up everypony, and thought this one was connected somehow.

Also...IagreewithLunaokaythanksbye.

Funniest fic I've read since Fluffershy.

Heck, this might be even funnier, if only for the ending.

Lost my shit at Luna's last line.

Good parodies are awesome, and this is a good parody. Carry on.

I can't tell you guys how much I was laughing at this fanfiction. I love it so much, especially Luna, cause shes just awesome.

We need a fanfiction archive. Google docs is nice but doesn't really cut it.

I could not stop laugh near the end.

Fluttershy is so quiet and gentle, my guess is she has a LOT of pent-up sexual frustration.

What's the maximum amount of people Google docs can hold anyways?

Pacce said...

It tickles me that this isn't the first story where Fluttershy writes erotica about her friends.

Anonymous said...

I feel the characters fell out of... character a bit toward the end, but really such hasn't been expressedly approached in the cartoon(or ever will be, Celestia willing), so I guess Celestia and Twilight could easily speak candidly about such subject matter...

Even so, Greatly enjoyed this.

DaimoMac said...

Oh gods I was giggling like mad. Excellent job

Sheepdog said...

Oh my Celestia that was funny!

chinlamp said...

That was really funny, I've seen a lot of fics that put Fluttershy in similar writing positions as this, but the letter format made it seem far funnier.

Also, Luna was excellent in this.

supervanman64 said...

This made me smile today. Wouldn't have expected that of Fluttershy. XD

lockend said...

HAhahahah Fantastic, I love Luna in that she was priceless this piece was great, Please I emplore you write another comedy piece of a similar nature! I can never have enough LOLZ

Ud the Imp said...

This is the last part of a trilogy involving Twilight getting drunk, isn't it? LOL XD

Fanloser said...

Nah, Fluttershy was just doing some warm up writings before getting to work on her real erotic novels that she sell. How else is suppose to make enough money to take care of all of those animal?

Anonymous said...

This was really well executed. What could have been a very cringe-worthy read in lesser hands was purely amusing and almost believable. Five stars.

Holy said...

This should be reason enough to make a "Comedy" tag for fics... its far more than "shipping" seriously.

That's.. ahh.. just a sugestion.. if you please, of course.. *squeek*

Friendly Uncle said...

Man, I really didn't think many people would find this concept as amusing as I did, it's nice to be proven wrong.

I also had no idea Google docs had a limit on how many people could view a document at one time. o_O I distrust DA's tendency to spaz out, so I dusted off a very old FF.net account. "Do You Really Want to Know" should be showing up on the site sometime in... uh... the next couple of hours or so.

Thanks for commenting, I love you guys!

ruff1298 said...

I was overjoyed to see that you were the same author as Fluffershy. I was more overjoyed to see that you haven't lost your touch.

I was initially thinking that this was going to be related to that sequel to "What Do You Do With A Drunken Unicorn?" and that this was the same author, but I was pleasantly surprised that neither were the cases.

First up, I enjoyed the reference to Party of One and Celestia's vague annoyance and disgust with the TMI moment. It was a pleasure to see the Monarch of Equestria being so politely disgusted.

Secondly, Twilight's response and the hilarious gleaming from Celestia's point of view was brilliant. The quip that Celestia may have been getting old was funny, too.

Thirdly, Luna's recommendation that Twilight Sparkle be spanked made me happy. Naughty, Childish Luna is the best Luna, in my opinion. I kind of hated that Celestia dropped the first clues to the ruse so soon, though.

Fourthly, the "horn" allusion was funny. It reminds me of that line from "We're Gonna Party Like It's 999!", part 2, which itself was hilarious. The tangent about Spike hanging around the back was a nice ender.

Fifthly, Luna's "I wish!" and uncontrollable giggling was hilarious. I can just imagine Luna wishing and staring in jealousy as she reads the prank over and over again, while admitting that she had to giggle at the genius. The comment about the mastermind needing counseling was fun. Luna's finding the hilarity of it was funnier.

Sixthly, I was laughing very hard when I discovered who was the source this time. I didn't go "Why, Fluttershy?" but rather "Woo, Fluttershy!"

(Yes, I know I'm messed up.)

Seventh, the volley and their not wanting to ask about it on further reflection was hilarious. Celestia referring to herself in an expletive was clever.

Eighth, Luna's letter killed me.

This looks to be a followup of the prank rainbowdash played in a previous story!

DarkJester said...

Epic story, through and through, had me laughing throughout. Very good writing!

One thing that surprised me though. When I was linked this, I thought it was from Equestria After Dark. But when I realized it was from Equestria Daily... Well, I was surprised.

It seems the line dividing porn and non-porn seem to be getting thinner by the day.

Tumbleweed said...

You know, even -I- couldn't help but wonder if this was a follow up to 'Friendship (with Benefits) is Magic.'

Had me smiling throughout. Thanks for sharing!

fireant said...

Well, its always the silent ones, isn't it? ;)
Really liked it, made me LUL'z seriously.
Not really much more to write about it - its simply works as intended!

Silverspot said...

Heee, I love Naughty Luna! Good to see EsperDerek isn't the only one using that characterization for her! :D This made me LOL.

That was Epic-ly funny.

Turns out that Luna is into shipping. How naughty.

And Celestia is afraid of Pinkie Pie.

But i like it.

Oh GOD I lol'd. Flawless Victory on your part xD

BloodyAliceOfEngland said...

My goodness Fluttershy, it's always the quiet ones huh?

SebastianW said...

Perfectly delightful and funny! I particularly enjoyed seeing Luna as a naughty filly, rather than the usual withrawn emo woobie.

tunerknightmare said...

Ehehe, that was funny

Eddy said...

This is probably the most humorous fanfic I've read yet! I find it funnier to finish the story then to go back and read Celestia's original response. One can only imagine the awkwardness of this conversation.

kriss1989 said...

Dear Twilight

I would like to know as well. Incidentally, you might want to talk to Celestia about upgrading the security on the Dragon Fire network,it's ridiculously easy to get copies to your correspondences.

For the lulz

This was utterly hilarious, especially that fluttershy was behind it all. Luna made me giggle like a mad man

Thats hilarious, I couldn't help but laugh at that ending.

Shadow Dragon said...

That was so damn funny. Though I wished Twilight would have gone into more detail about Fluttershy finding out that both Twilight and Celestia read that page of her journal. I also hope that when Luna returns in season 2, she's as awesome as she is in the fanfics.

Alyssa said...

So, that's what FlutterShy keeps in her journal....BAD GIRL!!! xDDDD

I loved both parts.

However, while five bottles of vodka might inspire Celestia musically, it can also result in gagging on your ice cream bar to hear about the results.

Friendly Uncle, your stories are entirely too hilarious and make me laugh far more than is healthy. Keep up the awesomeness.

The J.A.M. said...

I just wonder why it didn't occur earlier to EITHER of them that Luna also had access to the royal seal and parcel.

ToonNinja said...

The best/worst part is that this is actually kinda plausible, assuming Luna is more of a prankster in canon.

Speaking of canon, it just hit me. When Season 2 rolls around, most (if not all) of the brilliant interpretations of Princess Luna will be rendered obsolete. I... I need to lie down for a while...

Anonymous said...

Oh god that was funny :D

Anonymous said...

Holy Crap, what you're doing here is illegal. No, seriously, you are commenting witchcraft. It's just letters back and forth, there is no logical reason that it should be this hilarious. Hell, Celestia is even out of character in my opinion and I just don't give a goddess damned fuck about any of it. Currently I am to busy laughing and am unable to contact the proper authorities.
But when I catch my breath, you are going to prison for practicing evil magic.

poopnate said...

@ToonNinja

I hope the new producers will be as active in the Fannon as Faust. Maybe Luna will come back as a Prankster and not COMPLETELY ruin our Fannon. *hope*

Not A Good Username 360 said...

Aaaaaand a Precision F Strike seals the deal! XD

Also... WHY does the idea of Celestia going through a "fertility goddess" phase seem SO DAMN PLAUSIBLE?!?

...eh, either way, I doubt Twilight will be willing to let Luna hide out at her library sooooo...

...

*puts up "Vacancy - No Questions Asked" sign*

Cloudy Skies said...

Tears. Glorious glorious tears. Nine out of five stars and a huge hug for you, author, for making me fear that I've woken up my housemates with laughter.

Not A Good Username 360 said...

@Cloudy Skies Only NINE out of 5?! For shame! It at LEAST deserves 11 if you're using THAT scale...

Nando said...

Oh man, this was great. I believe this story wouldn't be as awesome without the "exchanging letters" format, it really gives it charm that way. And the humor, oh the humor!

That last part, with all it's calmness at the beginning, literally made me laugh out loud.

<3ing your Luna as well.

Keep it up!

I've never loled so hard reading a fict... NEVER!!! And was almost uncontrollable on the parts involving alcohol...(The one involving the ballroom and the book on part 2)

Dear Twilight Sparkle,

If Luna happens to have arrived at your library looking for a hideout, and you do NOT intend to let her stay, would you please give this letter to her?

Dear Luna,

LMFO here, and looking forward to future installments!

Dr. Robotnik said...

I like how your story intertwines with not only your side story in "progress", but with "what would you do with a drunken pony". Also, lol @ the princess being in the kama sutra.

Good god that was hilarious. Look forward to more.

This is how I see Luna acting. Hell, I wouldn't be surprised if the whole Nightmare Moon thing was a prank gone very wrong!

LOL the end of part 2 is just so funny.I loved both parts gave this 5 stars.(To bad i can not give more stars)


I can not wait to see a part 3.

This really needs a comedy tag.

SteamChaser said...

That last line in part 2 literally has me in tears right now, I'm starting to hyperventilate from laughing! Someone help me!

Rainbow Crash said...

It veers merrily into "ok this characterization isn't that plausible anymore" but I don't care because I'm too busy laughing.

Absolutely loving part 2, anything is possible once you get the magic of alcohol involved, plus royal perks.

Canon Luna may just be as big a trickster as celestia is.

Oh Celestia above... I've NEVER been one to mix adult elements with ponies, but this one, for whatever reason, had me giggling immaturely all the way through... Good show, sir.

OK, -that- was hilarious!

Interesting how it's practically all about sex, yet there's nothing too terribly graphic. OK, there kind of was, but still, it had me laughing the whole time!

I can't be the only one that heard that last line in the voice of "The Lonely Astronaut". But I also can't say anything that I haven't seen in comments before, so....all my stars, take them.

Baree said...

Spoilers

Yeah.... Chapter two was just a tad to predictable. It was funny enough at times. The ending was a bit to much maybe. Also, its never explained if Luna intended this as a prank or anything. It would make sense, but considering the vast majority of the crate contained regular books you wonder if it was perhaps some kind of mistake somehow. I like that idea to be honest, more so then the idea that Luna meant it as a joke.

Very funny. I'm not normally a fan of this type of fic but you handled it very well!

Stryke said...

WHY DOESN'T THIS HAVE A COMEDY TAG?!

Sheer brilliance, yeah pretty blatant where it was going unlike in chapter 1 where the revelation had me rolling. But man this is so funny I really don't care.

Luna said...

LIES! LIES! LIES!
I do not have a servant named 'Sundae Surprise' or 'Sundae Delight, they are not twins, and we certainly don't do things on a day about Sis. But, oh, how she'd love it if w- ... GO AWAY!.


The second just wasn't as enjoyable as the first. It went from 'what happened, where did it come from, what does it mean' to 'lets do stuff about sex, like talk about sex, read books about sex, look for books written by somepony thinking about sex'.

It just makes me think of the anime 'R-15', which was horrible from the start. The main character is a fabled 'prodigal porn-fic wrter, who has been publishing porn books since late elementary under a pen name, then comes-out and admits it's him, then transfers to a school for 'prodigies', where more R-rated events happen.

If it had continued with either a parallel story where somepony else's secret was revealed and developed to a different end, then it might be something at least slightly more enjoyable.


Also, the ending was that Luna set it up in hopes of getting together with Twilight, or at least giving her ideas of things to do so that she could at least read about them.

She knew about Celestia's stash of books for Twilight, and about Celestia's long-forbidden book, do not deny that the feather was placed there on purpose, then filled and shipped to reach her own desire.

Present Perfect said...

Woooooooow.

I read the first paragraph of part two and I can't stop laughing. I have my hand over my mouth so as not to alert others. Just wow.

Best. Fic. EVER.

Rockburgh said...

This was just... what? I can't stop laughing. (On another note, someone randomly linked me to Where There's a Whip, There's a Way right after I finished reading...)

TenchiFreak5 said...

I was laughing most of the way throughout chapter 1 and almost all of the way throughout chapter 2. And then, that ending. Holy fuck, that ending!

Retl said...

First part? Five stars. One of the stories that gets the most bang for it's length and is very enjoyable and relatively fitting for the universe. I smiled. I laughed. I starred it in docs so I can get back to it again. Five stars. If I could give it 5 stars over and over again, I would. I'm that happy with it.

Second part? Felt like majority of it didn't need to exist and lacks the sharpness of point like the first part. It felt like the whole thing was there just to fill up space... until I got to the ending, which almost justified most of the text, but made me wonder why this didn't seem like the obvious direction of events to me. I dunno, I just didn't dig it as much. Might just be my preference for short-fics speaking.

Sterling said...

great story, would definitely like to read more additions.
fell out of my chair laughing at the end of #2, mostly, i think, because i had prefaced this story with this video
