This story is a sequel to Friendship is Shining: Clash of The Iron Mares


Shining Armor and Twilight Sparkle's parents -- Nightlight and Twilight Velvet -- are back from their second honeymoon. They also have two announcements to share with their family. One of them will be thrilling and exciting.

The other...

Sonata, you do know that dreams are Princess Luna's domain, right?! :trixieshiftleft:

Hey there. Thanks greatly for getting this story started. I really appreciate you going to the effort. Not much I can say other than, great job on the exchanges, emotional content, humor and future chapter set-up in all the right places. I particularly liked the reference to the story that inspired this universe in the first place.

As for the two bits of news, I am going to wager that one of the pieces of news is that Shiny, Spike and Twi are going to have a younger sibling in a few months. As for the other, I am not even going to hazard a guess. Still, I am definitely going to be looking forward to more of this as soon as time and inspiration will allow.

Shining's dream sounds awful! Who would actually READ that? :raritywink:

7557176 Considering one of them actually mentions you by name...

Liked the chapter hope to read more soon

Shining Armor, have you NEVER heard of tempting fate/Murphay's Law? :facehoof:

7571641 I doubt it. Welp, Murphy's gonna come and kick his teeth for invoking him. The phrase, "What could possibly go wrong" is also another way to invoke this presence.

Hello there. Thanks greatly for getting the next chapter up. I really appreciate you going to the effort. Again, excellent job on the exchanges, emotional content, humor and future chapter set-up in all the right places. I particularly liked Spike's bit of Genre Savvy. Of course I have a feeling the disguised Princess is a pony Shiny has ALREADY met in passing, even if he, Spike and Twiley don't know it yet. At any rate, I'll definitely be looking forward to more of this as soon as time and inspiration will allow.

Hey there. Thanks greatly for getting the next chapter up. I really appreciate you going to the effort. Once again, great job on the exchanges, emotional content and future chapter set-up in all the right places. One of the pieces of news, I expected, but the other, well, it makes some sense, but still, wow. Hopefully, Twily and her friends will somehow convince the parents to change their minds concerning the latter piece of news. At any rate, I will definitely be looking forward to more of this as soon as time and inspiration will allow.

Her parents don't know that Twilight is in Ponyville by order of Princess Celestia??? :rainbowhuh:

7590698 She's not. Shining is. This is an Alternate Universe where Shining Armor is Celestia's student and Element of Magic, while Twilight is a filly who doesn't have her cutie mark yet.

What?! Why do they want Twily back in Canterlot? They're not seriously going to say it's because of Discord, right? :facehoof:

Now, what's this about Sunset Shimmer?

7609427 With the decision to have Trixie be a filly at Twilight's age, a variation of Sunset took her place in this universe's version of Boast Busters.

Oh really, the parents are worried because of Discord and a few isolated incidents that Twily wasn't involved in at all? Sounds like they're overprotective and not in a good way, especially since they're going to have another child soon. I mean really, they gave Shining Armor permission to look after his little sister, and by all accounts he hasn't slipped up yet. :facehoof:

Hello there. Thanks greatly for getting the next chapter up. I really appreciate you going to the effort. Once again, great job on the exchanges, emotional content and future chapter set-up in all the right places. I particularly liked Twiley shutting Pinkie up before she could spill the beans concerning her crush on Pound AND the scene with "Crystal Heart".

And, yeah, I hope we DO get some more clues as to Sunset's big scheme in later stories.

At any rate, I will definitely be looking forward to more of this as soon as time and inspiration will allow.

"No," Shining admitted. "At least until tomorrow evening. That way, we can spend the rest of the weekend showing you around town, and maybe show you it's not as dangerous as you're thinking."

If Shining keeps tempting Fate like that, his pseudo-villainess harem is going to get jealous.

Hello there. Thanks very much for getting this next chapter up. I really appreciate you going to the effort. Once again, great job on the exchanges, emotional content, humor and future chapter set-up in all the right places. I particularly liked seeing Nightlight and Velvet getting an idea of just how many friends Twiley has made in Ponyville already AND the parents meeting Sonata. Rainbow's comments about how protective Shiny is of Twily were also great. At the very least, the parents have some food for thought. At any rate, I will definitely be looking forward to more of this as soon as time and inspiration will allow.

Rainbow Dash needs to watch her mouth before she says something that will actually get her in trouble,

Hello there. Not much I can say other than thanks greatly for getting the next chapter up. I really appreciate you going to the effort. Once again, excellent job on the exchanges, emotional content and future chapter set-up in all the right places. I especially liked Sonata's "thought mention" of her sisters AND the sweetness of the dream sequence. I'll definitely be looking forward to more of this as soon as time and inspiration will allow.

Do I sense a redemption in store for Sonata?

And that dream sequence was too cute ...

Hey there. Thanks again for getting the next chapter up. I really appreciate you going to the effort. Once again, great job on the exchanges, emotional content and future chapter set-up in all the right places. I particularly liked Velvet's meetings with AJ, Rarity and Spoiled. Definite food for thought in the cases of the first two. As for the last one, well, it's a good contrast between two VERY different mothers. I'll definitely be looking forward to more of this as soon as time and inspiration will allow.

Velvet met Spoiled Rich? Oh dear! :twilightoops:

Nice chapter, though I found a small little thing you may want to edit.

"Just relax here for a while, and we will get you for you massage."

Once again, Velvet is letting her concerns get the best of her. Look at what hasn't happened at all since she left Twilight in Shining's care. Not once has Twilight ended up in a situation where she was hurt or in any real danger, Shining has done a fine job of protecting her and many of the threats were resolved before they had a chance to become major.

Oh no ... poor Twily. Hope she'll at least be able to visit often, if something doesn't change her parents' minds.

...Why do I have the sneaking suspicion that Sonata is the one who, intentionally or not, will end up fixing this whole mess?

Hey there. Not much I can say other than, once again, great job on the exchanges, emotional content and future chapter set-up in all the right places. I have to admit, the detail about the doughnuts on the horn was both funny and touching under the circumstances. And, hopefully, things will stay quiet around Ponyville long enough for Shiny and Twi's parents to change their minds. Or, at the very least, something happens in Canterlot that convinces Light and Velvet that Ponyville might be safer after all (especially when their son [who can produce force fields around an entire city] lives there now). At any rate, I will definitely be looking forward to more of this as soon as time and inspiration will allow.

I'm just impressed that nothing exploded.

That's it, this is where it ends? Feels kind of anti-climatic.

Well, I have to admit I'm a little sad about how this last chapter ended. On the other hand, the exchanges and emotional content were all well done in all the right places. I also really liked the stuff that showed how much her friends genuinely care about her and, now that she knows how good it feels to have friends, Twi might be willing to give Moon Dancer and the others a fair chance back in Canterlot. Unfortunately, Twi's parents seem unlikely to change their minds until the Season 2 finale (which is probably the earliest we can see a situation that, at the very least, convinces Light and Velvet that Canterlot ISN'T any safer than Ponyville). At any rate, I'll be looking forward to more of your work as soon as time and inspiration will allow.

And then the changeling invasion happened. Nice job, Night Light and Twilight Velvet! :trollestia:

7680661 When are you planning to release the next Friendship is Shining story?

7746699 Honestly, no idea. I haven't come up with what it will be about yet, and am currently struggling to work on some different stories.

i for one, want twilight velvet and nightlight go and buy a house in ponyville and move to the town, but give i don't knew what they do for live that may not have work out.....

So why did some part of her feel bad about it? She was a siren. They used their music to manipulate ponies and get what they wanted all the time. She and her sisters and done it numerous times in the past. Hay, this time she was not even going to hurt anypony. Just use her singing to manipulate the dreams a little. Not even bad dreams either.

had

To that end, I ask that you be aware of any new ponies that may appear suddenly. Especially those that seem to be extremely interested in you and the others, and are highly flirtatious.

Based on The Crystaling, Shining Armor is kind of a doofus but SHEESH! To get him to take a hint, apparently you have to inscribe it on an anvil & bounce it off his thick head. The problem with that is, it usually breaks the anvil.

"Sugarcube Corner," Pinkie answered. "I was in the kitchen helping get ready for the day when all of a sudden I heard 'I'm going to be a big sister!' being shouted really really really really really really really really really --" she took a deep breath "-- really really really really loud. I thought it sounded like Twiley and I found her singing how" -- she then started singing -- "she's gonna be a big sister! She's gonna be a big sister!" The singing stopped as she resumed talking. "And she was so happy that I just had to join.......... and celebrate with her."

join in

"Because they shower the no mommy with presents," Pinkie declared, grinning. "But I should really get back to Sugarcube corner. Have to get ready for the morning rush. See you all later."

new

"You heard what they said," Shining answered. "Mom and Dad want to keep her safe. You can't be mad at them about that."

But they're OK with Spike being there? "Hey boys and girls can you say 'Double Standard'? I knew you could." Still, Spike is older (?) + a dragon.

"Well, Miss Dash," Twilight Velvet said, "would you care to join us, and perhaps -- in a more calmly manner -- explain why you think it is such a good idea for my daughter to stay?"

Bad grammer
Either "more calmly" or "in a more calm manner"

The first story was boring as it seemed a copy&paste, but the other stories were good and more original that other stories that just put the characters in similar things, yet you for example did not cover much of the gala (that everyone knows) or put Pumpkin and Pound more older and in another class with Twilight, something that I for one liked... Are you going to make more Shinyverse stories? I for one could want to see Shining visiting the Canon Verse, or Twilight visiting the Shinyverse

Also, I really think it's a bad idea to separate Shining and Twily, I mean, in Canterlot she did not have any friend of her age, that was one of the reason they decided to give a chance, and Twilight in ponyville is also helping others and is happy. Meanwhile in Canterlot she could still be in danger, be depressed and do worse in exams. Not to say they are expecting another foal, and they will not have enough time.

Well, there's one more written already and posted. I do plan on writing a few more.

9190510

Yeah, I'm reading it, the Pinkie clones, but I decided to post the answer here as it make more sense.

And good that you continue with them. Also... Did you think to make a group for the Shinyverse stories? Mainly to not search between your 70+ stories

9190511
Not specifically for the Shiny-verse, no. However, it has its own folder in the Blame Defender 2222 since the idea was based on his Crisis of Infinite Twilights story.
