Alternative title: Ultimate Boast Busted.
Technically it will not be Lunaverse.
Well that doesn't answer very much, but just to reiterate...
TrixieXUrsa clopfic? Nice.
2208137
Uh...you may end up disappointed. The only pseudo-clopfic I plan to write one day is the sequel to In the Heat of the Moment. This isn't it.
2208138
Author also "announces" possibility of eventual sequel to other really great fic as well, complete with even more pseudo-cloppy goodness. It's like Christmas (in July) has come early.
2208138 No Ursa X Trixie ?
2208179
You know, surprisingly of all the crazy ships I've seen in this fandom, that's not one of them. Yet now I must wonder why not?
Ooh, colour me interested.
Btw, is this an AU of an AU? IE. an AU of the Lunaverse like the 'Sexyverse'?
Huh. Well. Trixie able to put her bits where her boasts are? This should be very interesting, assuming I'm interpreting the picture correctly.
Technically not Lunaverse? So, more universe hopping, or just a non-canon story like Heat?
2208307
Or she just doesn't notice the bear...
2208341
Well, like I said, it's alternate title is Ultimate Boast Busted.
2208523 So... how long till Lunaverse Ultimatum?
2208523
Does this mean the characters will be Darker and Edgier, some of the main cast will be killed off for no reason beyond shock value and Twilight will die and be replaced by a zebra?
2208523 Ahhh, I gotcha, I missed the Ultimate connotation.
2208693
No, that's not it!
The zebra just thinks Twilight dies because Twilight's too big to be killed off, even in an alternate universe.
Also, if there's gonna be an Ultimate Lunaverse, does this mean we'll ever get Lunaverse NOW!?
... The exclamation point is part of the title. I'm not yelling my question. Just wanted to clarify that.
2208523
...I get it now.
RDD, pull yourself back from madness. Now. I am not kidding.
Who needs stories when I can just watch this thread unfold into theories, conspiracies, and breakdowns?
2208187
This trope, perhaps?
2208932
Hasn't stopped people from shipping Rarity with not just Spike, but a full grown adult Spike.
Hmm, my prediction is that this is going to take place in the Mane-verse that the L6 visited and battled Antithesis in. It'll be that Mane-verse Trixie trying to do... stuff, involving an Ursa. That be my theory.
Is- is this the real life?!
Or... is it just... fantasy?
I'm assuming it's a combo of Boast Busted and Magic Duel with Twi actually accepting Trixie's challenge and Trixie delivering.
2209006
Possibly, though the compression to Marvel's Ultimate continuity makes me think it will be more like "reboot" of Boast Busted, or perhaps better referred to as a sort of what if in regards to had he written it at a different time, under diferent circumstances and expectaions.
I'd assume that Spike presence in the cover there isn't because this is the Mane-verse, but rather because in early drafts of Boast Busted he was going to be Twilight's traveling companion. Likewise, we might see the return of other scraped draft ideas such as Roseluck being one of the two earth ponies in Trixie's circle of friends. Speaking of the L6, I might also expect to see some things that didn't make it into the Lunaverse because they didn't exist yet. For example the only reason we have Raindrops is because there was a lack of background pegasi prior to Hurricane Fluttershy, whereas RDD has said had he written the fic after that episode he would have used either Flitter or Cloudchaser instead.
But how will the Ursa get into the socks?
2209489
Probably not the recast Elements. Parker was still Spider-Man in the Ultimate line, after all. Well, until recently, but he was at the launch.
Otherwise - nail, head.
2209748
Shame. Much as Raindrops is probably my favorate character, I'd have been interested to see what you'd do with Cloudchaser/Flitter in her stead. Also to be fair, while Peter was still Spiderman, some of the other staple characters of his supporting cast and rogues gallery got juggled around or out right reinvented/replaced.

Will this Trixie be like the "canon" one in Crisis of Two Equestrias, unskilled but with potential?
