ok you need to take a break. this menny storys in this short a time will stress you to no extent.... not that im comlaning i love your storys and cant wait to read this one

A promising beginning.  Color me excited!    I look forward to what's coming.

Nice start.

Its so promising!!!! Haven't been excited about the beginning of a story in a longtime

HEY! You forgot to give me credit in the description.:

Impressive as always! I love how you make all the stories fit together, makes it seem like one huge story instead of several different ones.

>>484906484906 Here, have a credit. *alters description* Logged in from work, hope you're happy!  And on an unrelated note, as with most of my main stories, expect updates once a day.  Hope you all enjoy reading!

>>485604485604 they're all sequels and prequels and... Stories that happen in between? What do you call those? Either way he's a great writer

>>485703485703

Lol. Didn't mean for you to go that far.

This I enjoy

First!

And lol hes been there one day and already doesnt trust pinkie

“They haven’t healed at all, have they,” she said softly, her eyes tracing over his frame.

“No.  It’s part of who I am now, and not even magic is going to help.”

So there was good reason why he's "hiding" himself. It seems like all stallions who comes to Ponyville have bad past behind them.

Hmn, some sort of horrible scaring?

So, Macintosh is interested in Cerulean's sister? Are we getting a two-for-one romance this story?

just saying, cerulean was right, it's smarter.

>>488606488606 you know... I was wondering about that yesterday... because if he actually was right, then the shame falls on me. which is has. I will find a fix for that.

>>488615488615 the more you know

You sir, continue to amaze me. It's about time AJ got some lovin.

>>488615488615 What, did I miss something? *Sighs* Oh well. Never said I was perfect! xD

How fast can you type on a key bored? You made three chapter very quick

>>489223489223

We started this well before we were even half way through Unplanned, I won't say how many chapters we have done already, buts its enough that there will be plentiful updates.

>>4899648996 that cool You guys plan a head that good and even know the next chapter maybe done ready. I still can't wait to read what happen next in this story You guy make really good story

That ending... must.. have... more!

>>489960489960 Before I begin, A. I'm on a phone, so excuse autocorrect, and B. Because of the phone, I cannot PM you, and since this isnt a personal matter, I felt it appropriate to put it in a comment, replying to yours, because notifications... I'm rambling, aren't I?

Anyway, Story Ideas! If you ned any ideas, you could detail Storm's wedding, adventures of the pranks of the Royal Castle, Rainbows pregnancy, Rainbows life as a wonderbolt, and so many more. By the way, I've always wanted to collaborate with you on a fic. You seen to be able to expand on basic plots easily, while we both can create plots well. I'm available out of school hours on school days on Skype or Steam, go ahead and name something if you'd like to collaborate. PM me if you would like to reply by means which are not visible to the public.

Signing off (not literally, but you know what I mean,) awesomekik.

Hey pal thanks for the heads up I'll read this when I'm done with your other work. Really want to see what happens but I must wait to find out. Thanks again for the warning.

Oh AJ.

Starfall Tavern is a great name.

Lying about what?...

>>493208493208

About his relation to Berry. She heard from him that Berry was his cousin, but then Pinkie pops out and announces to everyone they are a couple. So right now the confusion from the two is making her angry and figure he is a lier.

>>493259493259

I know but why I asked was that Applejack is Element of Honesty. She should be able to tell that he is actually telling the truth.

>>493266493266 Yes, Applejack is the Element of Honesty, and can typically discern truth from lie.  However, her emotional state is in turmoil, and thus distorting her perception.  In spite of all this, she's sitting there listening, trying to convince herself to give him a chance and is met with a: he's opening a tavern, and she isn't exactly on good terms with alcohol, and b: Pinkie declares that he's in a relationship when he had said otherwise.  Something tells me his stammered out rebuttal would fall on deaf ears the way she's feeling.  Does that make any sense?

>>493266493266 >>493295493295 I find it ironic that the author forgets something else... To them, they ARE BOTH telling the truth! At least as far as I know of, AJ would only be able to tell if somepony is lying about something, and they KNOW they're lying, and Pinkie isn't lying. She's just misinformed. So to AJ, they're BOTH telling the truth, but it seems like Pinkie is to her, since she knows and trusts her. Make sense? (Written on my phone, so I can't correct anything. Hope it makes sense still...)

>>493381493381 Ironic?  I forget stuff all the time.  Your explanation works though too, so thanks!

Countdown to unwarranted social faux pas...ENGAGE!!!  

Surprised no one has mentioned the scene with the ring, was my most favorite part of the chapter with how funny it is seeing Scootaloo react

Dammit Pinkie Pie. Why you have to mess thing up for other pony. stop troll

That a pretty good chapter. I like the part of scootloo reaction to storm ring.

Interesting.  I like your development of Rarity.  Given that she does have a tendency towards displays of selfishness and possessiveness, it makes sense that this would extend towards her friends as well as objects.  In which case, she perceives Storm and Cerulean as taking those important friends of hers away, which leads her to look for excuses to try and shun them.  Given the lead-up Applejack's problems got in your previous work, I get the feeling that this is signaling that Rarity is next on your list (or getting close, anyway).  

This was a very nice chapter.

Great work as always. You've definitely made your way onto my top author's list. Keep em coming

Ok. I am wondering: Is a Silver being a Booze Alchemist not that interesting for it to be mentioned by anyone? Or do we have to wait for him to start using it to make actual strange and amazing drinks?

I like where this is going.  keep up the good work

>>498224498224

I challenge you to say that by the end of chapter8/start of chapter 9.

I was planning on posting this warning at the end of seven, but seeing as how Ominous likes to troll I will just say this now.  There is a sad tag on this for a reason, and things are going to get really rough really fast as eight ends and nine begins.  So brace yourselves, everypony.  It's going to be a bumpy ride.

*braces for one more chapter today* :P

>>498242498242 Im sure it is related to Silver's scars. I got good hint of it when Cherry commented about it in end of chapter, I forget which haha.

This is prelude to dark/sad chapter next eh? Im bit worried what will happen when Applejack find out the reason why he always wear clothes, especially with Luna and Celestia right there.

>>498782498782 I think you meant "chapters."  I shall say no more on the subject for now, only that any seemingly "out of character" actions will be fully explained eventually.

>>498822498822 It's fine, you already explained why Applejack is "out of character" and it does make sense.

Ahh misunderstandings bane of my existence

>>497870497870 I found it very interesting actually, though you are right in that it is even more interesting now that he has started mixing drinks up.

It reminded me of Drop of Moonshine in fact, which is kind of funny since that fic was just uploaded here.

Another good chapter. I LoL'd at berry's last line

oh no applejack why!

And drunk princesses me gusta

Sneaky, sneaky, stupid, stupid, Applejack. I expect severe burns and scars, along with rage filled Silver. What will Twilight do? Find out tomorrow when he double posts again, which I do not recommend. By the way; as far as I know this is first post.

EDIT:BUUUUUUUCK! Never get first post.

>>500363500363

More than one post a day ends today.

Oh AJ!

Oh that cliffhanger!

Was that a doozy Pinkie was having earlier, or was I just reading too much into her twitching?

>>500372500372 But I love that! Just because I said he shouldn't doesn't mean I can't indulge in the creative masterpiece you two cal a brain.

That was awsome

I am vaguely reminded of the scene from Phantom of the Opera, where Christine removes the Phantom's mask for the first time.  

>>501787501787

Was unintentional, I assure you. I have never even seen the movie.

The amount of chapters for a week is very impressive especially with the lengths of most of them, very excited for future of your series. I recently read all of them this week xD. Talent my good sir, you have it. I especially liked the Rainbow-Storm story very heart warming. I enjoy series and great job. Also since I couldnt work in a emoticon here --->

Excellent. Proceed.

Next time on Under the Starry Skies:

One rage-filled Silver.

Two drunk princesses.

&

Three innocent bystanders!

---------------------------------------------

Applejack, I am not pleased with your actions.

stupid anticipation

MUST......KNOW......WHAT ........HAPPENS........NEXT

I look forward to the rest of the story

yup still looking forward to more

Cerulean you never cease to impress!   I know no other writer that simply releases a 3000-4000 word chapter daily, sometimes more with material as quality as your work

>>503174503174 It's more consideration for the readers than it is skill.  I start my stories and don't start releasing chapters until I have, normally, at least five finished.  I always hated waiting for updates when I was reading, so I try not to make my readers wait too long.  I also have OminousBrony helping with ideas and Magical Trevor editing, so I can't accept all the praise myself. I do typically write around 3000 words a day, though.

Oh man, poor Silver. Well, at least AJ appears to be heading straight to Manehatten to try and bring him back.

>>503174503174 that being said, we might can safely expect one or maybe two more chapters today based on his track record so far on this fanfic. Looking forward for moar

>>501814501814

Here you go: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=prYtzjLILDg

In case you were curious.

Wow, no wonder alchemy has mostly been abandoned if it is that dangerous.

Am I remembering correctly that in your established backstory, AJ was assaulted in some way as she left Manehatten back when she was just a little filly? Or am I thinking about another story?

>>503506503506 You are correct, she was nearly abducted as a filly.  Was in "Tears," glad people remember!  It's rather important to her development.

>>503506503506

Alchemy. Wonderful results when it works, big prices to pay when it fails. However there is a reason why Perfect Jewel has lesser and smaller scarring than Silver.

sweet so far so good keep up the great work

Must read another chapter!

I like where this is going even though this has been up a little bit i think you deserve this...

Cant wait for the next chapter

love your story's. and poor cerulean gets the short end of the stick a lot.

Wow nice though i did knid of expect this coming but still good job just like your other stories. I think your good stories might be the main reason i joined just so i could get updates right away.

>>501814501814

ummm OminousBrony

phantom of the opera is a play as well

I see the next chapter to be either Tearful/Romance/Kiss or Tearful/Hating/Abandonment

Wow emotional. I cant think of anything elde to say

Wow emotional. I cant think of anything else to say

AH SHIT SON IT'S GETTING REAL NOW

Aww shit....

One of those moment where you say before you think, which ends up hurting Applejack even more and himself as well.

Looks like my prediction was right... shame

Damnit Silver, she didn't care about your scars, at least not enough to stop her from finding you and crying all over you, that should have told you something.

That being said, going straight for a kiss was a little fast on the part of AJ.

Guess his pride just got in the way there... big time

Uh... I'm pretty sure we made it clear it was his fear that caused him to do that.

>>508482508482 Yes. Same thing I was thinking. They probably skimmed the story rather than read it for line to line.

Going through these comments i feel dissapoint at people

I do not understand why would she ran off. Well she did get rejected again but she should had know that was risk that she had to take.

OMG I think I am getting way into this fanfic. but it is so good

Kiss a gal you like them tell her you'll never see her again... For shame, Silver.

Loving this story so far

>>509850509850

There was no kiss.

I have a feeling of deja vu coming along

anyone else feeling it as well?

Fantastic...All of Ponyville is depressed, Silver's brain is full of "fuq", and Applejack is broken....What a wonderful place to end a chapter .

I get that it's dramatic and all, but why do you insist on ending chapters at cliffhangers like this?  I'm supposed to be writing a term paper and studying for finals, but instead here I am reading your story and now all I'll be able to think about for the rest of the day is what's gonna happen in the next chapter.....

Hah! I thought that's where we were going with AJ's abduction and Silver's dad.

So did she leave her hat in Manehatten? Also, what the hay is Silver trying to make that is that dangerous?

>>512652512652 Eeyup! PERFECT place to end the chapter! Glad you think so too! Now you know how I felt back when I was pre-reading this, however long ago that was!

p.s. gl with the paper. What's it about? Maybe we can help! xD

>>512717512717

You will find out soon enough. I will say however that it is responsible for about... a good 90-95% of the scarring and burns. only a few of them come from other things that he has finished and is in no danger from anymore.

>>512743512743

I'll be fine now.  Right after I posted that I refreshed the main page, and what wondrous sight do my eyes behold?  Is that what I think it is?  Why yes, it is indeed the next chapter.  Insomnia: 1   Cliffhangers: 0
