Welcome aboard the sequel to Welcome to Batstralia. This story should continue their story, as well as give some glimpses into things happening back in Batstralia as it deals with maximum overbat.
We have some time to build up toward the show itself (as the description says), and while it would be lovely to take things a day at a time, I think there might be a few gaps appear. So sit back, relax, and ponder what questions you might have for the cast as you read.
A serious question, however: There is planned to be some romantic shenanigans leading to a few sexual scenes later in the story (probably way later). Would everypony rather me label this story Mature + Sex right now, or make a separate story with those particular chapters in it (will leave little blank spots in the narrative in this)?

It's more convenient for me to have them in the same story? But I'm okay with having them be separate if other people need them to be. I'd prefer having a tame version in this story instead of a literal gap, though.
8942287
It depends how vital to the plot you think the specifics of it are, but I think any hot and heavy scenes should be a side story and you just gloss over the events in this one. But if the details are important, then definitely include them here and change the tags now.
Another option is to post a second version of this whole story with a mature rating, doing something similar to what the Five Score Divided by Four original fic did. (When originally posted, the mature version was hidden and linked from the teen rated version, but now the rules forbid hiding it for that purpose, and allow publishing both as long as they have different ratings.)
8942287
Definitely label it mature. It makes things easier for everyone.

8943669 The scenes will not be for quite a while—there's a literal ton of world-building to do first. I am going to leave it sit as T for a month or two before I contemplate all the suggestions. Thanks for the feedback!
Absolutely adore this story already. The characters behaviours are so entertaining and interesting.
8943679 Thanks!
Joyce is now Lyra's sister? Sounds like the setup for some Seinfeld shenanigans later.
Finally! I’m not the last person to ask questions anymore. I know from experience that exotic fruits like durians and mangoes are actually expensive because of them being imported. So, I’d love to know what counts as a delicacy for earth ponies?
8943728 Same (apparent) age, familial bond, pranksters... What could go wrong?
8943730 Everyday delicacy for an earth pony? Brussels sprouts, asparagus, saffron, truffles... Basically, the harder a crop is to grow/harvest, the more rare it would be, but of course it needs to be something delicious, too. There would be the opportunity for magic to help, but there could even be a "Grown Magic Free" movement among ponies.
8943728 It may look it, but Joyce is really Lyra’s (Mike’s) mom. I know from experience because my mom’s been mistaken for my older sister multiple times.
8943752 But don’t earth ponies already have magic?
8943798 We've seen them do some amazing stuff with plants, but in this case by magic I mean unicorn magic.
8943801 So unicorn magic-grown plants are like GMO’s?
8943818 A more accurate description than any would likely wish to use, but yes.
8943797
Yes, I know. I was rolling with the misconception.
bwahaha!
Excellent start so far, looks like momma Joyce is starting to get a life now that transformation trouble happened.
8944193 I'm sure the Royal Guard have a shirt design for informal use, that reads:
PRINCESSES HAPPEN
Hold on, Joyce is 34? That opens up all kinds of questions about her backstory if she has an 18 year old daughter. Also gives all kinds of interesting context to her current situation of essentially being de-aged back to 16. At 16 the first time around she was dealing with having to be a full adult early by trying to balance school and deal with a child. Now suddenly she is back to 16 and going back to school without having to worry about taking care of children, essentially giving her a do-over of a section of her life she had to grow up too fast on. Also interesting that her youngest daughter is having to bear the responsibilities of an adult at an even younger age.
8946247 You're the first to notice this (and comment). Yes indeed, this is a very real do over for her. I hope you enjoy the story!
This story is proving up to be super fun and vary interesting.
this will be a story to keep a close eye on.
Woohoo! Sequel! I. AM. SO. PUMPED!
My poor eardrums... Why did I get Snapdragon for you?
8943752
Well, you have to wonder if Joyce's mental age has been dialed back too. Yeah she still has her life experiences, but a 16 year old's brain really does function differently than a 34 year old's.
8946490
8947103 Well, there is also the aspect that her human, bioelectric brain got turned into a pony brain, then went to a magic pony land. Is it still bioelectric in nature? Is it a little lump of marshmallow that fizzes and pops with magic? More to the point (at least outside her medical studies), does her pony brain react in all the same ways as a human brain?
8944198
Nah. Big stamp for incident reports.
"It all started when the Awkwardly Placed Mauve Tearoom started flooding with maple syrup..."
*APPROPRIATELY COLORED "PRINCESS HAPPENED" STAMP*
"...and so that's why we have to manually bail out every ironmonger in Canterlot."
do we need read the orginal first?
8956379 I'm going to try to fill in blanks as needed, but there are going to be some facts that will surprise you unless you read the first one.
8982953
alright thank you
8982956 Sorry I missed your comment when you posted it. It's been a crazy few weeks.
8982960
no problem I been busy as well
Heh, and so the next adventure begins!
9021213
Well this is definitely off to a good start! Younger Cadance and Shining Armor are a nice touch.
This was a funny chapter and I liked the reactions of Shining Armor and Cadance. I imagine that Cadance and Luna will have to work past several misunderstandings when they meet.
8944198
May I steal this idea? Because.. I'm the kind of person who loves to make obscure jokes.
10970384 Go for it!
I think this site has broken my perspective on story lengths. See 200k words and think "That's a lovely way to spend an afternoon."
11355463 Hehe! 🙃
Time for some comfort readings while I wait for everything to update.

Hey. It's been a while. Long enough that we don't trust picking this up from where the site last had us. Let's see this one through, eh?
