Honestly it's your story and your choice. I'll personally enjoy the story either way.

I don't mind it is your story and who know maybe it might make your story flow better or maybe not, but you'll never know unless you try.

Also do i sense a bit of a romance forming between our protag and Luna or will it be a deep and meaningful friendship?

Thanks again T-O-P-T for another great chapter. Changing the Tense of the writing sounds fine to me, it's your story after all.

And so, Phase One of Celestia's "Social Experiment" draws to a close... can't wait to see how this fans out

Please update.

That was a nice scene at the end!!
