We all have bad dreams. They can be unsettling. Thankfully when Twilight has a very specific recurring bad dream, she has her Royal Adviser and good friend Spike to remind her that her dream isn't real and will never be real. Ever.
Hope everyone's coping with the post-finale blues well enough. We'll get through this, I promise.
Edit: for those of you who aren't understanding it and are telling me this clashes with canon, yes, I am aware of that. I did that intentionally. This is basically my way of saying that there were certain things I didn't like about the finale making canon, so I made my own canon.

Post-traumatic-End of MLP experience
This was cute. I really didn't appreciate Twilight being a carbon copy of Celestia but with her colors.
Pls go back to sleep, it's nighttime where I am rn.
Part of this needs changeing. It is CANON that Twilight now handles the sun and moon. Maybe not fully like Celestia and Luna.
But they gave the power to handle them to Twilight. They could probably handle them again if they need to. But they don't do anything in retirement as far as we know.

Yeah, that's pretty much why I made this. I actually liked the episode overall, but wow, I don't know why anyone thought it was a good idea to just recolor Celestia with Twilight's color scheme. Not only is that visually jarring, but it's also raising a lot of questions about alicorns that aren't going to have many good answers.

Not changing it.

Just to spite everything, or too lazy to? Cause now you've lost all the good I gave the story. And I don't mind that I did take it all back.
I'm coming up with crossover continuation stories featuring kids of the mane 6 who are all boys except for Pinkie's child.

Made an edit to explain the story. No need to be upset, dude.
I want to like this. I really do. But it's pretty obvious that a large portion of it is (by your own admission) just a thinly-veiled excuse for you to complain about Twilight and Spike's future designs. Regardless of my own thoughts on the matter, I don't feel comfortable giving any support to stories like this; whether or not they're good (and I do think yours is relatively alright), they end up getting a bunch of undeserved praise and attention solely because all the like-minded people drink it up.
Sorry.

You called him a stupid ass. What did you think was going to happen?
I'm not really a fan of fix-fics. It seems odd for a character to be traumatized over a little detail like that, especially when the character has experienced far worse things. I still gave it a fair chance, but it didn't work out for me.

No need to apologize. I mean, this website is a place where meme fics get featured pretty frequently, but if a vent-fic is below your pedigree, that's your perogative.
9893959
There's plenty of reason I should be. The edit doesn't help this story at all. Just confirms that it's just another fix fic.
And those are near universally bottom tier of the writing spectrum.
9894079
It can't be bottom tier. If it was, it would be a meme fic.
9894083

The difference is that meme fics' first and foremost priority is to entertain, be it through their innate absurdity or, preferably, through their actual comedic value.
9894097
And what I wrote is meant to entertain people who didn't like what happened in the finale. Quit trying to Lord your preferences as immovable law and just say "I personally don't like it", just be upfront.
Ah, I love a good fix fic.
I like the version of future!Equestria you've cooked up, especially compared to the canon version, especially Spike's design (though Big Twilight is growing on me). But, this is really, really lazy. An excuse wrapper of Gallus the guard so it's not just Spike being the author's mouthpiece. A majority exposition, from one character, the very antithesis of "show, don't tell."
I love a good fix fic, and this is not one.
9894168
Fine, next time I'll make a meme fic with Princess Luna doing the Ricardo dance or whatever the new hot may-may is. Maybe I'll have her holding a Nintendo Switch to o appeal to all of the "special" fans who like Gamer Luna. Will that appeal to you and fimfictions, ahem, distinguished tastes?
9894186
Definitely
9894186
You deal with criticism both poorly and loudly. An unfortunate combination for someone who posts things on the internet.
Better luck next time, sport.
At the very least I agree spikes design was very....different, than what I had pictured, especially given his teen form in the greed episode

People write fanfiction all the time to adjust some things from Canon, there's nothing crazy about this. She didn't insult anyone, so we don't have to ascribe words like spite or lazy to him.
9894332
Man, sounds like even trash recognizes its brethren. If you want to cherry-pick unrelated stats, my fix-fic has a better like/dislike ratio.
What do you think of Spike and Gabby as a couple?
This is a great story, but you really need to use the AU tag to make sure people know this wasn't done on accident.

Bro, are you disabled? You have two stories, and one of them has ZERO UPVOTES. The other one has exactly the same upvote count as mine, and I got that in one day while you put yours up years ago. Quit pushing this or you might end up hurting yourself.
9894620
I don't.
9894950
I'm not gonna do that.

>5|0 and 25|2 have at least one 0-upvote
Oh. Wow. I'm so sorry, I didn't realize you're illiterate.
My mistake. This is an incredible story for someone working with such a disability. I wish you luck in your future endeavors, such as learning what numbers mean.
9895423
Oh okay, you're resorting to straight up ignoring what I'm saying based on what I saw on your own page with my own freaking eyeballs. How clever of you, maybe your next accomplishment will be tying your own shoelaces.
9895466
Oh my goodness, do I have egg on my face.
You're not just illiterate, you're outright blind. I'm terribly sorry, beating up on you over this is terribly unsporting of me.
9895574
Oh my God, are you kidding me? How is someone as stupid as you allowed to live? Do you not understand the concept of numbers?
Do you not know what ZERO means? i.imgur.com/2DAPXcA.png
Do you not understand how the concept of time works? i.imgur.com/7nIqtgf.png
"Duehhhh, I'm gonna pretend that things aren't real so I can tell myself that I'm right, nyehhehehe x3"
Do you literally need someone to explain to you how to breathe or to blink? Do you actually think ignoring reality somehow makes you look smart? God, no wonder your follower count is so low, you can't think to save your life. I feel bad for anyone who has to put up with you for more than a few minutes at a time, give your mom my condolences, I'm sure she's making your favorite mac and cheese right now because boiling water is too dangerous for you to do yourself.

Y'know, I honestly didn't know it doesn't show up/down counts if it's not your story until it hits a threshold - as you can see by my earlier screenshot, I can plainly see the 5|0. I concede that you could not have known that I don't have 0 upvotes on my fixfic.
I also didn't know you're unable to follow a link. Truly, I'm learning several things. I hope you are too, because you seem to be similarly unaware of this site feature.
9895858
I clicked your BROKEN LINK, and surprise surprise, it DIDN'T TAKE ME ANYWHERE.
I'm done with you, child. I'm not putting up with your crap anymore. Your stories suck, nobody is reading them, you have no ground to stand on telling me what criticism is. Go. Away.
9896528
Thank you very much.
Honestly, I kinda like this story. The writing is good, and I love the story where Twilight had a feeling about outliving her friends (which is why I made a fixfic about dinosaurs). I'm not bashing the story, and I know you're trying to make it canon, but this should count as 'Alternative Universe'... unless if it took place after the end of the series, I don't know.
4.5 out of 5 stars.

I don't really see you as bashing the story at all, if you're offering your thoughts in a non-confrontational way. But at the same time I'm also not using the alt universe label because the two or three differences I'm pointing out are so minute it barely matters (height, proportions, immortal sisters).
Heck, I didn't even release this story intending it to be "good", I just wanted to blow off some steam after seeing some stuff in the show that ticked me off -- more because it's literally the final episode of the series, the changes come out of nowhere and we're told to accept it. Basically this is me just giving a middle finger to that. I know it's petty, but I wanted to be petty for a brief moment.

Oh, sorry. I meant NOT bashing the story. I edited that so I won't confuse you. Sorry about my writing.
Honestly this was a good fic, and adreesed many of the problems I had with season 8 and 9 in a comedic way, something I could have never done by the way (I’m bad at being funny).
