this was a good story, im glad i came across it! :pinkiehappy:

“What took you so long. Do you know how long I have been waiting here for you” The commander glanced down at the privates hooves. “And what is wrong with you right hoof private?!” The private merely looked at him with a smug expression on his face “WELL?” The commander was,obviously, starting to lose his patience with this pony. Then private shook his head.

“You wouldn’t believe me If I told you sir.”

Brilliant.

You give me this name, I think:

I thought it was going to be a luna story because of the name :ajsleepy:

Now we need another version of this story but with it starring Queen Chrysalis and a changeling guard.:rainbowlaugh:

4396708 i feel like that would be much less pleasent and would probably result in someone, somehow dying.

4396708 Exactly, then maybe King Sombra and one of his guards, or discord and a pig with wings.

4286215 And it's such a disappointment that that had no bearing on the story.

Cute story.

When I read this story I was just filled with D'aaawwwww. :rainbowkiss: :derpytongue2:

Well, Celly is over 1000 years old. Technically, her subjects WOULD feel like toddlers. :trollestia:

As I get up into my 30's, I'm amazed at how young high-schoolers look, and I realize why casting directors put twenty-somethings in those roles.

I can imagine that Celestia doesn't think she can really get to know ponies until they're thirty or forty, when the gleam of youth has faded, and they look like they can understand the weighty matters she thinks about constantly. I can imagine she sees years as we see months, and months as we see weeks. Seeing an old friend after some time has passed, she's surprised by how much closer to their eternal reward they are; "he didn't used to have wrinkles, did he?"

I imagine always being around new guards who are in a particular age range gave her a replacement for Luna during the banishment of Nightmare Moon.

This feeled me with D'aww! Also it was very adorable! I would not mind another chapter of this... See what the Private does next.... :twilightsmile:

It'd be kinda funny (though dark) if there was an alternate ending where he actually cut his limb off.

4978354 We just need Kowalski, Skipper and Rico. "Kaboom?"
"No Rico! we do not need kaboom when guarding a library. These sanctuaries of knowledge are to be protected at all costs."

Tis but a scratch!... Literally.

I would never slack off on any of my guard duties... even if I was injured.

Heh, cuteness. ^.^

And it gives me 'Idea for strange headcanon #245': All the (identical looking) royal guards are Celestia's children. The night guards are Luna's children. Occasionally there are other volunteers like Flash Sentry and Shining Armor.

I might have to write a story like that sometime.

5292871 This makes so much sense... yet I still choose to deny it...

Nice story, I now need a sequel of this or somethin'.

Aah!
Why do I keep seeing my own stories in the 'related stories' of other peoples' stories I look at?
(Also, stories. Because that sentence didn't say the word stories enough.)

5292871 you're still on #245?
I've just got to #32,768 (everyone has some form of 'pinkie scence' {ear twitch means hidden sound})
(P.S. Head cannon accepted, #32,769)

4978354 'Changlings, Love, and Lollypops' anyone?

6177192
Eh, I take it easy.
No reason to make more headcanons than I can write.

6177229 fair point,
About 80% of my head cannon I see often though,
So I see no point not to add them all in my story.:trixieshiftright:

Now to read all of your storys!:twilightsmile:

Super cute story! :pinkiehappy:

Well, Celestia cares for everypony, so it isn't surprising. Would have been more confusing for the private if she knew his name too

Never seen so many self inflicted cuts and bruises before, it was like an epidemic...but fake.

D'awwwwwww... Momlestia is never not heartwarmingly amazing.

I thought that line was strange. And if it was true, it would explain why most of the guards look alike.
