Tired Old Man


Celestia's exhausted personal paperweight.

Tutoring is something not many were born to do. I certainly wasn't. Having been a premier magician that performed in the great halls of Manehatten, imagine my surprise when the King and Queen of Equestria approached me with a job opportunity I couldn't refuse, and had no real reason to deny.

Of course, the job was to tutor their two lovely daughters Celestia and Luna, and even though the King and Queen told me they'd be a hoofful to handle, I was certain I could keep them in line.

And you wouldn't believe how wrong I was.

One thing is certain: Starswirl's life is gonna get interesting...

If they make this canon in season 5, that would be awesome.

:rainbowlaugh::rainbowlaugh::rainbowlaugh::rainbowlaugh:I love this... Especially since I'm a fan of history stories. Historical comedies are few and far between, but this one outshines many other comedies I've read.

At least Starswirl didn't start with teaching them firebending... Equestria wouldn't survive that...

Hahahahahaaaaaaaaaah. :rainbowlaugh:

I wonder if Starswirl has realised he's just taught two pranksters how to clean themselves without ever having to set hoof in a bath ever again.

The maids will be most displeased.:flutterrage:

Or they'll be thoroughly relieved they don't have to bathe two deviant princesses.

I personally lean towards relieved.

4567486 Don't you mean devious, not deviant? I noticed that was in the story as well.

Headcanon updated: Fluttershy is of some relation to King Tidus. This explains the phenomenon known as "the stare" that she has exhibited.

"Let's put a smile on that face":pinkiecrazy:

Headcanon Updated: Trixie Lulamoon comes from a long line of illusionists and stageponies, beginning with Starswirl the Sorcerer. Also, starry capes and hats are a tradition in this line as well.

Quite a fun story. Hope to see it continued someday.

OMG little Celestia and Luna are so adorable. :rainbowkiss:

I don't know who would even give this story a thumbs down :twilightangry2:

WONDERFUL JOB ON THE FIRST CHAPTER!!

please finish the book author :raritycry:

"...the arrival of Queen Aura, who had a rather flustered and annoyed look on her face. Her mane was slightly unkempt, with a few strays fighting against the flow of her golden hair..."

Two things:

1. It was the King that controlled the sun.
2. And if the Queen or King controlled the sun their name would be RED (referred to the first chapter)

"...the arrival of Queen Aura, who had a rather flustered and annoyed look on her face. Her mane was slightly unkempt, with a few strays fighting against the flow of her golden hair..."

One thing:

1. I suggest the word mane instead.

DO PLEASE FINISH THIS STORY:raritycry:

“Aw… I’m going to miss those…”

:ajbemused::pinkiesick::derpytongue2::rainbowlaugh::duck::trixieshiftright::facehoof::unsuresweetie::fluttercry:

Luna and I shared a glance. We both smiled, covered our ears and turned away so we didn't see or hear anything.
We still heard it.

BWAHAHAHA:rainbowlaugh:

Please finish the story!!!!!!!

NEXT CHAPTER!!!!!!!!????????????????????????????

You should revisit this one someday. It's really amusing. Would be a shame to never see more. :)

I grin stopped, and my face had a genuine look of curiosity upon it

Either my instead of 'I' but then you use my twice in the same sentence or change this to 'stopped grinning'.

Everything is better with sparkly glitter...SNERK!! and the levitation training may go badly for him.

Me thinks Lulu has played a spider prank or two on Tia before and after this event.

That mentor wouldn't happen to be Princess Platinum would it?:rainbowhuh:

4567486 This story has a thousand years of potential, please say you're going to continue it?:pinkiesad2:
