That was exceptionally sweet, and strangely familiar somehow...I dunno, like something out of a dream. That worn little abacus is going to stick with me for a while I think.

Fantastic story very cute.

I was going to nitpick that Equestria isn't advanced enough to have aircraft, calculators, and microwaves. But on further thought I realized that they actually could have them. But they'd be primitive, bulky, and expensive by our standards. But since these are the Princesses, of course they'd have them!

This is a great group of stories, and I have to say that I love one major fact you've focused on. That Luna and Celestia are sisters, and in these stories they act like it, with the friendly banter and everything.

It's also adorable to see that Luna is a total geek.

DJ Kat said...

My god, I thought Fluttershy was somewhat cute, but she pales in comparison to Luna now. She's so adorable, awkward, and innocent it almost killed me. I was embarrassed for her at one point. Oh, if I could blush, you'd see it last for half an hour.

I love these, though I find your portayal of Luna a bit weird (i.e. at odds with my personal views). :) Celestia strikes me as more of the mathy, workaholic type; I'd think Luna would be more flighty and emotion-driven. I figure that as part of the reason for her fall.

I am on chapter 3 now and I hope you keep these coming. I usually don't read fanfics, but find your novels to be light-hearted, and funny enough to enjoy them. The microwave was funny enough to work in the setting. The mention of the space-program part maybe seemed a little too far from the MLP:FIM setting and caused some unnecessary friction in the story for me. Still it is a great story, and I will continue to read it.

“I hate it when you’re right," Sundance groaned.

“Because it’s so often?” Hoyden asked smugly. Sundance smirked.

“No, because it’s so rare.”

“Ow," Hoyden said, holding a hoof over his heart theatrically. He then looked up at the ceiling. "You know, we don’t necessarily need another colt for tonight’s date...”

“What’s that supposed to imply?” Sundance asked dangerously. Hoyden gulped.

“Nothing!”

@supervanman64

Well, I have a Doctor Whoof story idea in regards to the abacus (Wouldn't Luna be happy to know her abacus helped save the universe?), but I might write more for Progress itself.

On the other hand, I do want to branch out a little in the characters I write. I already have two Doctor Whoof stories that have yet to be posted to ED, and I've got a pretty lengthly Luna fic. I might try my hand at a Trixie fic next.

Andrew said...

@Anonymous

It made Luna stressed and freaked out, to the point Hoyden would arrange for a blind date with Big Mac which would hopefully lead to Luna loosening up a little and not feeling so depressed about modern life.

She didn't count on all the specifics, she just established the proper emotional circumstances based on the existing relationships. Not a Xanatos Gambit, more like a Batman Gambit. But she pulled it off all the same.

This sir, is the best fanfic I have ever read.
I never laugh at anything I see when I am alone, not so much as a smile. But your stories make me chuckle, to other people they would be crying.

The amount of research, the incorporation of so many good jokes, and incorporated well I will say.
the comedy, the cuteness, the fanservice that is so well managed.
