So... You're ending this early because this is a fantastic stopping point, but what does that mean for the next chapter? Is it sooner? Was this one sooner but I didn't notice, and the next will be on the regular schedule?
I don't blame ya, wonder what she will think of being a kid though xD And also what method sarah will take to escape....
Oh god, Tranquility Lane always creped me out. Also, I apologize if this has been asked earlier, but will the DLC's be involved?

I have a schedual? I know that it's usually once a week but sometimes it's just how often I write and because I'm me (no paitence whatsoever) I usually just publish them then.
I am seriously starting to think you dropped Intelligence for something like Strength, or Perception with Sarah. Luna has a sword, a cutting style weapon, and Sara asks her to stab it.
Fuck that Vault with a rusty, bent fork.
This... this makes sense to me. Nightmare is a part of Luna, so why wouldn't Moonbutt be able to hear her?
So, two things:
When are the DLC's happening?
I hope to God that Luna 'grabs' Sarah when she returns to Equestria.
3960886
Well... Sarah's not really a sword girl. She sees a big sharp thing that's good for stabbing and cutting and Luna has said that it's hard to break and thus assumes that you can stab through things. As for the dropping of INT she did, she has about a 5 to a 6 while her perception and endurence are raised a little higher.
As for the other questions... well... we'll see.
3960915 5 to 6? That's average level.
Considering the 5~7 (generous!) Int, she should know that it could cut it. Also, Luna's sword has been shown to cut through friggin' everything like butter.
3960886
If she can stab into it, she can cut it. The tip is sharper than the edge, and a sword stab has a lot of weight behind it if it's a traditional cutting/slashing style weapon. It's also easier to continue a cut than to start it. This is why tearing a sheet of paper is relatively hard, but to continue a tear all you need to do is move your finger into the tear. Partially it's a matter of leverage, which could do some pretty hefty help on its own, and partially it's a matter of there already being a gap in the material to continue work on.
On top of that, I think she meant stabbing it into the lock. Like the knob of a door, except stabbing through the mechanism keeping them together, at which point it could be pried apart.
Also, unrelated:
When I got into Tranquility Lane, I'm pretty sure my first playthrough I was just exploring every nook and cranny and I accidentally found the super creepy house and just did the chime puzzle without realizing it actually did anything. I literally stumbled blind into the good ending.
There will be... side effects of having Nigh...Nim inside of her head.
No. This doesn't end well. This ends hilariously.
Calling it now, it was all a damn dream, and both characters are just starting out on the adventure they both finished (the story's beginning) when they woke up. Cyclical ending is best ending.
3960886
Unless the sword is curved in some way, it was designed to stab.
3955523 Enope. Don't mind at all.
As for it not ending well, I am remembering a reply that you made to an earlier comment to me...
God, this music really brings me back. I remember the first time I went to tranquility lane... Im so sorry timmy!
I would love to see Nim not able to do anything to affect the Vault's dreamscape, and have Sarah do the murder ending, so it could be used as charecter development. Nim tells Luna what occurred in the dreamscape, while Sarah's dad just blows it off (like seriously, your daughter just murdered the entire vat and u got nothing to say about it?) and then have pony and human have a long and deep talk... Then have sex! Yah!!!..... No just me?

'Kay, with that out of the way, let's get down to the nitty gritty... or the lack thereof. Really, there isn't much to say except Luna and Sarah clogged my aorta. I was not expecting Nim to go into Tranquility Lane with Sarah, either. Good call. However, I feel the need to voice my opinion on how Sarah will end the simulation. I really, really, really hope you don't go for the Chinese Invasion program. I feel that it isn't something Sarah would be observant enough to find, and I believe that Stanislaus forcing her and Nim to become the pint-size slasher would open up several paths for you to take, specifically in interactions between Sarah, James, Luna, and Nim. Granted, this is your story, and I'd be happy with whatever tickles your karma meter, but it is something to consider. Having a blow like that to Sarah's moral integrity would be phenomenal.
Well shit... here we go...
oh dear lord, the nightmare Nim has now thrown herself into is one she will not soon forget. Keep goin and stay golden^^
3960886 If I'm reading this story correctly Equestria time seems to go a lot faster than Earth time.
How long ago after banishment did Luna get that little Astral Projection to Equestria?
Also Nim in Sarahs Head... Anyone else thinking Alicorn! Sarah here?! I should point out that the name Sarah basically means Princess

Unless the sword is a fencing style sword, rounded sides with a pointy end, it was designed to cut. The bend of the sword isn't what matters, it's the edge(s).
This is a stabbing sword:

Straight blades are best for thrusting, because the mass of the blade is behind the point.
Convex blades are best for slashing, because the blade is designed to be in constant contact with the cut.
Concave blades are best for chopping, because the center of mass is far up the blade's length.
3962893 No,Thats a sewing needle with part of a thumb tack added for a guard.
is Nim able to get her own body hear?
is going into 'Tranquillity Lane' like going into the matrix in the movie 'The Matrix'?
is Nim able to take control of a left over dead body after they leave 'Tranquillity Lane' from somebody else who died in a different pod in 'Tranquillity Lane'. giving her own human body?
making the party one alicorn, Luna. and two humans, Sarah and Nim, (each with their own body)
is all this possible?
3963013
As interesting of a group dynamic as that would be... that's not happening. Sorry. Also, in that case the party would be one alicorn and three humans (you forgot James)
Tranquility Lane was creepy. The first time I entered it I didn't want to hurt anyone and began exploring until I found the abandoned house and stumbled onto the musical objects that opened the failsafe.
I wonder how this will end for Sarah and Nim
Nim in Sarah's head...This intrigues me. Depending on whether or not Nim has full access to Sarah's thoughts and feelings, it has the potential to completely alleviate Nim's concerns about Sarah betraying Luna. Of course, how Sarah would feel about eternal night remains to be seen...After all the Wasteland IS pretty damn hot, and plants don't grow there anyway. Hmm...
In any case, this really makes me wonder whether Nightmare really is manipulating Luna to do her bidding, and VERY effectively, or if she's just an iron lady who's beginning to soften up a bit when someone actually shows affection for her/Luna.
Lastly, I too have read "The Wizard And The Lonely Princess" and I approve wholeheartedly of the name 'Nim'.
Hmmm......it'll be interesting to see what Nim does here. It's tempting to say that she would take the evil path, but since she's a part of Luna, who is the guardian of dreams, it seems more likely that she'll spend the whole time frothing at the mouth trying to gut that bitch in the park.
Also, this story needs to take them through the vault with the hallucinations. Because that place was creepy as fuck and watching Luna/Nim hallucinate about the ponies from their past will be entertaining.
3962937
Those are all true statements.
For some weird reason, all of those have edges for cutting...kind of like my original point.
Let me explain my reasoning with this nice little chart:
Most Swords
/ \
Stabbing Cutting
/ \ / \
Foil Straight Curved
There, I hope that helps.
3962954
Yes, I'm sure insulting the inanimate object will make reality bend to your whims so you can be right.
/sarcasm
Also, you should have responded with "No, this is a knife." followed by a picture/video of the scene, as such:
[youtube=_vW54lAtldI]

Before this goes any further I'd just like to say that I'm not an expert in swords (like at all) so I suppose the only way to really solve this is to go back to the chapter where I really describe Daybreaker which is in chapter 4.
I would imagine Sarah might have a unquie option in dealing with Stanislaus, that is if Luna and Nim are still connected while Nim is in TL. Luna might be able to physically unplug Stanislaus, thus disconnecting him from TL and removing his control.
On the topic of Luna's sword: why is conventual reasoning being applied to a magically enhanced sword? Aside from that, based on the description in chapter 4 it is Not a fencing style sword and likely could slash through a Vault door as (as they are around 2.5 to 3 feet thick if memory serves) it is long enough. That said, it isn't clear exactly how sharp the sword is and even if it is sharp enough it would likely be very taxing for Luna to generate the amount of force needed to cut an opening through 3 feet of solid metal (remember magic isn't as easy for her in the Wasteland as in Equestria, otherwise she could just rip the door open with her magic).

Alternatively, since mad science is a real thing in Fallout, someone clones Luna and Nim takes that body for her own.
3964306
It really didn't. That chart was... not very logical.
As a matter of fact, foils are not weapons at all. They are practice tools, designed to allow for nonlethal practice with rapier-style weapons.
Saying that a foil is a stabbing weapon is like saying that this is a cutting weapon:
exploringtokyo.com/images/photos/articles/full/buy5.jpg
Rapiers have cutting edges too. Just because a weapon was designed to do a specific job does not mean that they can't do any other job. A good weapon can do anything it's wielder needs it to do.
Straight blades are designed to stab, but making a weapon that can only stab is just plain foolish.
Another example: spears.
Spears are made to stab, but even they have cutting edges.
I've been studying medieval weaponry and martial styles as a hobby since I was fourteen. I know what I'm talking about.
3964317 It managed to get a sarcastic remark thats funnier that what i said,So my role was still completed.....Gotta love the Xanatos Gambit
3961280
Er, hahahaha. No. So. Much. No. Most swords are versatile and you can chop, cut, slash, stab, and beat people with them. Most of them are also straight blades. The gladius was meant to hack and chop. Sure, you CAN stab with a claymore, but you're doing it wrong if that's your go-to attack with a claymore. You hack people to death with bastard swords. Various swords might be designed with different goals in mind, but if you aren't using a rapier, you can cut with it, curved or straight.
Hmm, dem Brainbots freak meh out lad. legit.
Good show with this chapter, with plenty of lolz~ XD hehehehee~
I loves it! :D keep it up my friend ^^
