Wut...
My Brain no working today, wut just happen?

This comic, it... it cannot be true... THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE!

Arcane Scroll said...

Love it! Celestia isn't the only prankster in the family!

are the cutey mark really the same? I never looked.

ZeldaFan777 said...

Oh god, it makes sense!!!!

Was I the only one who thought something else at the *Clop Clop Clop* ?

Norwest said...

That would explain so much... put a damper on all the Twixie stories, though.

Holy crap that actually MAKES SENSE O.O

Eddie Perkins said...

Panel 5 is kinda scary out of context.

Mind = Blown....

Geldon Yetichsky said...

It does make sense! Although the cutie mark isn't identical they both share a crescent moon as the base.

Cyberfox said...

@Stargazer
Search your feelings. You know it to be true.

Kill me, I still don't have an actual sccount said...

@Anonymous

nope

I'm willing to let this be "official" until S2 destroys all with it's canon Luna

Sonic Rainblast said...

The first mind-blowing comic I've ever read. The creator is a surefire genius.

Sir Leadhead said...

it all makes sense now!

Bobcat said...

It's a fun idea. While I don't necessarily want it to be taken too seriously, after some consideration and some points raised by others when I knee-jerk called it my new fanon, I like the comic.

Narwhals' Bend said...

@Norwest
No, it makes all the Twixie stories 1458645877% better because it has Luna.

7heSama said...

I do not accept this!

Luna is infinitely superior to Trixie!

Burndog said...

NO Trixe, YOU are the Luna.
And then Trixie was Luna.

Eddie Perkins said...

Uh oh. Someone else is using 'Stargazer' as a name now too? This could get confusing. I'll have to figure out some way of telling us apart.

For the record, I'm the Stargazer from Ponychan (for example, http://www.ponychan.net/chan/art/res/23052.html )and have been since at least February, and I post here as Stargazer from time to time as well. Not saying I somehow own the name or anything silly like that. Just wanted to give a head's up.

A Terrible Person said...

Of course, if you let this become your fanon, it makes the Out in the Cold followup stories really interesting.

C. Theron Vulpin said...

That's some really good artwork there. I'll leave it at that.

Desertwind said...

That was my first thought when I saw Boast Busters. TGAPT and NMM had such a similiar modus operandi.
Wonderful fanon and until season 2 nothing is set into stone.

Also more Trixie and Princess

...Ponyception?

CoffeeGrunt said...

@Everypony

Go back and read the final chapter of Out in the Cold, Twilight helps Luna have sex with herself.

FlutterSky said...

o.0 it makes PERFECT SENSE !!

*reads comic*

.......LIES!!!

there is no way that best pony Luna and that annoying one are the same.

Wow that's one of the most bullshit fanon stuff I've ever set my eyes upon

Ditzy Derp said...

Well, my logic just overloaded, if you need me i'm just gonna chew on a muffin for a few hours

KShrike said...

I really badly wanted to do inb4 outrage.

Pinkie_Pie_fan471 said...

Now it all makes sense...

Anonymous said...

I would love it if this explanation was made official. I really, really would :3

Sinez said...

...

so... does that mean that all luna-trixie ships are now, technicaly, clop fiction?

@CoffeeGrunt

wait, that fic has TWILUNIXIE?

HOW COULD I FORGET?!?!?

I'll be sure to read it now.

Braukoly said...

I lol'd. Hard.
But yes, it does make sense !

But I'm pretty sur that it was an idea of Celestia to test are "Most faithful student" ...

Rohit Eligeti said...

Cute but it's ridiculous! that's not true, it's purely Trixie! LOL

Dionysus said...

That would be an awesome twist ! xD

Arcel said...

Oh wow.... that actually makes alot of sence to me.... Brillent!!! =D

I don't think its true in the slightist, but it is still great!

Killsteal_Wolf said...

Until we see a pony disquse themselves as another Pony in the series, we have to call this off I'm afraid.

Granted, Twilight might eventually try something like this to help one of her friends out. Some sort of the "Being in 2 places at once" sort of deal...

That, or Zecora's knows how to brew Polyjuice Potion.

The Lord of Ábrocen Landmearca said...

Welp, issue solved. Good to know.

WAHT A TWEEST

2 words: Mind Blown

RifferKyle said...

Wow... My mind is blown... lol This is incredible!

We need fics on this subject. ASAP!

Fall said...

And here was me thinking Celestia simply had her assassinated when nobody was looking.

Adcoon said...

Thanks for all the comments. All this attention sure is stroking my ego ^^

Anonymous said...

Although fun, I pray this won't ever become canon in S2.

Yes, the idea crossed my mind as an explanation of where Luna has been. There is, a few issues though which is why I hope it doesn't become canon.

Although yeah, it makes quite a few Trixie fics really, really weird.

Anonymous said...

@Killsteal_Wolf
This is a fanon thing :D
for actual canon there's nothing to do but wait for more Luna in S2...

PoorYorick said...

That's just straight up bullshit, fuck your stupid fanon.

Anonymous said...

Mind=Blown. This is now canon

Joey Wonton said...

Trixie Ponies! We hates them.

ElectricZoNe said...

Hahaha, great comic!

Tears of a Valedictorian said...

I'd like it if Luna kept a bit of an edge in season 2. She got pissed off enough at Celestia to turn into an evil superbeing with her own war gear, so it wouldn't seem OOC to me if she still had a slight spiteful streak now all is forgiven.

Star Winged Brit said...

Wait a minute, wasn't there a post on here a few days back where Trixie claimed that Luna wasn't a... whatever you call a pony with wings and a horn?

Luna said...

To bad I thought of this last month.
I was putting it into story-format, however, with more smoke and mirrors and a press-on tattoo.

Anonymous said...

CANNOT COMPUTE!

Derpy Hooves said...

lol Nice. That explains why I like Luna and Trixie both. Or maybe they're both just great characters. Either way, that's a twist alright. :D

James said...

Oh that's good... Really really good. XD

Fallin' Winter said...

@Star Winged Brit:

Luna could just be trying to cover her tracks. Who would suspect a pony to be the same pony they just tried to disprove? That or Sethisto got the commercial email before this comic.

I like it. Whether I like this being fannon or not, I'm sure this will end up making great stories in the future.

anzul said...

dont give ideas to hasbro!!!!!

bcause i totaly se that hapening in the show..

LMAO said...

HOLY FUCKING SHIT! SHAPESHIFTING PONIES :O

Please give me a moment while i pick up my jaw from the floor

Sir, you just spawned a huge batch of ideas...
Like what now...is SpitFire actually Gilda in disguise o_O?(they have the same voice actors) then again none possed magical abillities

Is Trixie actually Zecora in Disguise? or the other way around?

Then again i think only Alicorns should be able to shapeshift...

Well time to make someone shapeshift Celestia...but i can barely find any side-characters....perhaps background ponies could work too

Anonymous said...

And then Seth inadvertently hopped on the Luna bandwagon and all was well.

Now we just need to establish that Celestia is Gummy.

Anonymous said...

So glad I am not the only one who thought this might be the case. The creator is amazing. Its gorgeous!

Timber said...

I can totally see that as what happened.

Anonymous said...

After reading the comic, all I could think was "of course!", then my head exploded, twice

Vermillion Twilight said...

Bravo! First thing in a while to be actually interesting.

Mind is utterly blown, though for a second I thought it might be Celestia disguised as Trixie, but either way that was Goddess Level Pony Trolling.

Also: *CLOP CLOP CLOP CLOP* WTF

Star Winged Brit said...

@Fallin' Winter ... GENIUS!

LoLZorZs said...

I Love her expression in panel 7 xD

Anonymous said...

@LMAO

Celestia as Zecora?

Keep that in mind and then re-watch Swarm of the Century for an outstanding "Trollestia" moment! XD

It makes perfect sense!!

Kjh242 said...

wait a sec. Then Twixie and Twiluna are one and the same? YESSSSS. Also, another fic that this would send to all kinds of paradoxical hell; "Tonight We're Gonna Party Like It's 999"

Anonymous said...

NOOOOOOOOO! why must you soil the reputation of one of the best ponies by relating her to that vile bitch! oh well. still a good comic.

No sorry I don't see it.

WHAT IS THIS MAGIC

Anonymous said...

Luna having shapeshifting powers would actually explain a lot. Like where she got that moon-armour, and where it went after she was "defeated"

Twilight Sparkle said...

A glamor spell?
Really Luna?

Anonymous said...

I kinda like the idea for what it does for Luna's personality. I don't much like the moe Luna purity sue that so many people like, I could support a hammy prankster.

Anonymous said...

This reminds me of the intro to Red Alert 2.

Simple said...

Oh good, princess Celestia's slow clop function is still working. At least we have that.

I like this idea. I wish to subscribe.

JakandRatchet79 said...

Until officially said otherwise, I'm counting this as cannon.

Less depressing than the lonely, homeless version a lot of fanfics have.

Delta Pangaea said...

Bah. Shenanigans.

If this was true, that'd be one less shipping possibility.

If they were the same, then Triluna would be a particularly odd form of clopping.

YonderVandal said...

Oh man, that makes enough sense that it's kind of scary. Very clever idea!

LordOfTheWrongs said...

Me, I've always liked Luna as a bit of an artist and trickster. Bookish Abacus Luna is cute and all, but it doesn't quite fit my idea of a moon goddess.

@Norwest
No, it just converts all Twixie into Twiluna.

@Geldon Yetichsky
If by crescent moon you mean streamer of magic sparkles. Seriously, look closely. There is no moon on Trixie's ass.

Anonymous said...

Fuck no, this better not be cannon or I'll kill a kitten. I hate Trixe, but like Luna. I don't want to hate Luna.

Anonymous said...

I really like this idea, they should make it canon.

DJ Kat said...

I was just reading the comic and expected somethin' hilarious to happen to Trixie.

Then I got mind fucked.

Why would you do that?!

MABE (I38VWI) said...

Luna is best goddess of chaos!

Anonymous said...

someone needs to get this into season 2

Nova25 said...

I wonder if Sephisto realize that ''this'' comic *might* means that Trixie never really existed, that she was a ''illusion/creation'' of Luna ?

QUICK ! All under the tables ! ;)

...or maybe Luna just copied ''that mare'' she saw on a poster, somewhere ?

Yuri said...

HOLY CRAP! THAT IS CRAZY!!!

Yuri said...

Dear god, I swear that this might very well be in the plot for season 2! It is brilliant!! Mad but brilliant!

Wierdplatformer said...

Sense? What is sense you are talking about? There is only ponies.

Pojo267 said...

The only difference between there cutie marks is trixie's moon is a bit mis-shapen and has a wand next to it.

Lunasta said...

*head explodes and implodes and explodes and implodes*

Well now that my head is back on, this does make sense as Celestia may have been trying to show her that her self-centeredness is what caused everypony to hate her a thousand years ago.

Didn't breath after I saw that or while I was typing this... In shock at the revelation.

Drakengarde said...

Okay, okay, okay, okay

I got it.

WHAT IF...

There really WAS a Great and Powerful Trixie, only she NEVER ACTUALLY MET Twilight Sparkle or ever been to Ponyville, with the Trixie who DID actually being Luna-in-disguise? (With the real Trixie being just as haughty (if not more so) than Fake-Trixie was).

OH. MY. GOD.

I literally have not the words for this epic shit.

Anonymous said...

@NotAGoodUsername360 Hey, that reminds me: Why the hay hadsn't somepony written a Supernatural crossover where Pinkie is a trickster that enjoys poetically killing troublemakers in the style of MLP fanfics?!

Seriously, look at Supernatural's description of trickster gods: IT FITS PINKIE PIE TO A T.

2% said...

Seen this before.

Even so, it is disturbing how easily the producers could devastate the fandom by making this canon. All those Trixie fics– *fwoosh* –just like that. And it could conceivably work. This is mind-blowing.

chiselite said...

I guess Seth is happy now. It looks like "Trixie" won the best pony poll a long time ago after all.

Anonymous said...

Celestia is basically a pony goddess so luna has just as much magical ability maybe enough to alter her appearance and maybe even disguise her mark I play dnd a lot and sometimes gods like to throw random things at their subjects to teach them things "testing" them Luna troll'n every pony was actually a test to see how they would react to a big loud mouth and luna being behind most of the problems in Equestria would explain how celestria seems to know everything before it happens. And it fits her charactor She is the moon rising every night shadows and stuff like that seems to fit her personality.

Anonymous said...

I've always wondered why Luna and Trixie look so similar. This comic just explained everything!

Overkillius said...

This can't be true... then Past Sins doesn't make any sense! That is bad because Nyx is the second best pony!

Rarity is the BEST pony of course.
