Hmm what incidents lead to Sunset Sapphire being so scared of Twilight? Did she conduct experiments on relativity near Sapphire?

What I'm imagining is a sorta cross between "The Omen" and various horror things with some of the real difficulties of raising a mentally disabled child. You'll see some of them soon, I think.

Nice chapter. Really reminded me of Jack Jack from the incredibles there. I wonder how Cadence is gonna handle things...

LOL LOVE IT:rainbowlaugh: can't wait to read more of this story and the next chapter of Empty Pages as well:pinkiehappy:

Where you watching the incredibles when you where writing this.

Nope, but I did a school report on Jack-Jack attack when I was in high school long ago.

How do you have a sequel if this isn't finished yet...?

Empty Pages is not a sequel. This, my friend, is a prequel.

XD

She grabbed a pair of tongs from the fireplace, and picked up Twilight with them, then battered the burning carpet feircly with her tail, scorching her primaries.

In one of your replies to the Jack Jack comments you mentioned having finished high school... You failed biology didn't you? That's why you think that touching fire with the tip of one limb will scorch a completely different limb? That a griffin's lion tail touching fire will cause their eagle wings to burn?

One, that's a somewhat rude way of saying 'you made a mistake here'. I realize you said it like that because you wanted to sound funny, not to hurt my feelings, but honestly you hurt my feelings a little. Still, thanks for letting me know I goofed.

When a person's writing it's really easy to lose track of what's going on. Originally in that sentence I had Rose battering out the fire with her wings. Then I switched to her beating it out with her tail, because it made more sense to me. Wingblows could seriously damage a baby, tail blows less so.

I'll go fix it.

And fixed.

6023244 Yeah I just got that, still a little odd that both are not finished, so that's why I was confused. I figured at least one of the two would be completed.

6023387

Nah, the story behind it all is that I want to get a look at Twilight and Cadance's early relationship before she shows up in Empty Pages.

More cynically, neither being finished means any update to either one drives traffic to the other.

6023376

Wingblows could seriously damage a baby, tail blows less so.

Baby? What baby? Was there a second baby sitting in the flaming carpet? And why didn't Ruby grab that baby when she grabbed Twilight?

6023426

Apparently I managed to confuse myself. There is no second baby, no worries.

Don't mind me. I'm going to go over there and slam my head against the wall.

*bang* *Bang* *Bang*

O.K. Back. Regardless, original scene, before I even hit publish, had her using her wings to put out the fire. Then I decided wings wouldn't work for some reason. Most likely because I thought about her holding Twilight and trying to beat with wings and it would be awkward.

The whole thing with her trying to beat out a baby is the product of the way that I am very good at confusing myself. Sorry. Just... yeah. Embarrassing.

About the recent 'update': Publish button is right next to edit and save buttons. I just woke up. I feel dumb. >.<

Sorry

"Very well. See you tomorrow, at 4:00. We'll be back by 10." Velvet finalized.

In the corner of her eyes, she saw shining armour let out a breath he was holding in.

So that is six hours then?
So... Shining Armor has been downgraded from a person to a thing? Also, you're British?

Four hours later when the Twilight Velvet, Night Light and Shining Armour returned,

So, it wasn't six hours then? Only 8:00pm huh?

A reasonable precaution, as the lights slowly came on in neighboring houses in a slow spread,

Isn't 8:00pm a little early for most of the neighborhood to be asleep?

6163566
Ehheh... six hours, not four. I miscounted somehow. I fixed the capitalization error and the time error, but I think it's important to spell Shining Armour's name consistently, and I like the british flavor it gives Twilight's family. I'm pretty sure I spell it Armour everywhere. If I tried to spell it armor, I'd have to change it everywhere in all of my stories. That's a lot of work. And it's a name anyway. And I like the spelling armour better.

I'm pretty sure I spell it Armour everywhere. If I tried to spell it armor, I'd have to change it everywhere in all of my stories.

Eh? That wasn't an error. The only error I was pointing out in the name was the caps issue. Other than that I was just deducing that you might be British from the spelling and added the underline for folks who didn't get the reference. Personally I'm not one of those snobs who really care about British vs American spellings. The only reason I favor 'Armor' when I type it is because the show is American and he has an 'American surfer dude' voice. If he sounded like Pipsqueak I'd use an 'u' myself.

Awesome to finally get another chapter, though when are we going to see some Cadence action? @.@

6163971

Sorry, someone gave me a hard time about the armor/armour thing earlier, so I reacted a bit... yeah. Sorry.
6164170

Either next chapter, or the one after that depending on what order I publish things in. <3 Soon either way

By the way, to all my fans, I love you all!

Sounds kinda like Cadance is going all film Noir there

FINALLY we get a little Cadence action!! I've been waiting for this and it's even better than I thought <3

My only complaint is that this chapter is so short T_T

, and are problems are like this...

, and our problems are like this

yay new chapter

haha, love that Cadance is having such a dramatic internal monologue! A nice introduction! A bit short tho, as it really feels like a intro to the chapter rather then a complete chapter. Otherwise keep up the good work!

why do I feel like Cadance is going to tell them after 1 night with twilight to get her into the gift school asap,

also I want those two to meet.

just when it wasc getting good, I would love to read more . so please update when you have the time please.

it is a surprise that twilight burst into flame, but that also make this story 70% cooler too

I've only got a chapter till I mark this thing as complete. I don't really have a lot of good 'twilight has only just met cadence' stories to tell right now, I'm afraid. Next chapter is going to be Cadence babysitting Twilight. After that, I honestly don't have more plans for Clean Slates, I'm going to work on Empty Pages and Rock Moon, and Blank Notes >.<

I might reopen this for a chapter or two if I can think of a small idea though, after that.
