Friendship is Magic.

The world is full of innocence and balance, if only one is willing to open their heart and see through the eyes of another.

This a gift given by a innocent filly, and her unique outlook on the world.

Thank you, I could only trace it back as far as Cheeseburger.

11226165 NP. Derpibooru has a neat reverse search thing you can use to find (generally pony) images, or you can always use saucenao.

Isn't it?

The moment I saw this, I was inspired to write sister fluff.

Need to use derpibooru more then, the art showed up when I searched mlp art, lol.

A lovely look at both the young diarchs and Star Swirl's... unconventional teaching methods. Though Luna dropping the cutest "r = w" voice after one line bothers me. I just wish it was consistent one way or the other.

But that's a minor quibble. Overall, a good lesson for Celestia with a nice undercurrent of impending tragedy. Thank you for it, and best of luck in the judging.

Luna knew her sister was fat with all the cake she consumed on a daily basis

hehehe so true

Plus her chunky butt stole so much gravity, that Luna was suspended up high near the ceiling giggling.

aww, Luna is so mean it's so cute!

"That you're a nut who enjoys dressing up little fillies. '' Tia spoke sarcastically as she began to spin out of control one way and then back the opposite.

ehehe, love the contrast between Luna and the older and grumblier Celestia

Luna held up her hooves as she giggled at the sight of her sister now flipped upside down.

hehe, she's so easy to amuse!

"Eternal night!? It would be beautiful! " Luna extended her hooves to twirl in awe as her eyes glowed like the stars above.

oof, foreshadowing!

"I mean you always run around, you get into trouble, and always ask questions! " Tia spun in place with a look of annoyance.

"I just want to be strong like you." Luna began to sob softly.

Tia felt her eyes widen at the sound of those words as her heart sank."You want to be like me?" She turned to face the tiny filly with a look of warmth.

"Mm-hmm, you're my hero." Luna locked those large blue eyes upon her sister.

auaugh this is extremely heartwarming i love it

"Well, I honestly want to be as passionate and inspiring as you." Tia placed a soft kiss atop the forehead of her sister, a click heard as both were released from the bar above.

augh that is just too cute

"Whoo-hoo, I love the garden! Tia can eat all the cake, she's more piggy than pony!" Luna squealed as she darted out the front door in a midnight blur of color.

ehehe, Luna is just the age to be so rudely blunt without even considering it!

"You think I'm heartless?" Tia lifted her silent gaze towards her mentor with folded back ears.

augh, the folded-back ears are the perfect touch. and yes, the contrast between Celestia's aloofness and Luna's emotion stretching back to their fillyhoods is a great thing to explore like this

"Let her kindness and wonderment guide you, see through the eyes of youth and know that innocence has its own merits." Starswirl exited the room slowly as the young alicorn was left to her thoughts.

and this Starswirl is just so warm and wise! very fitting to be Celestia's mentor

Yet for now, her attention fell upon the tiny moon rolling around the garden free of fear or anxiety about the future ahead.

augh, that is such a cute mental image! a tiny moon rolling around!

"Omigosh, I have this one game about an owl who is hungry for ideas so he eats books and…" Luna began to share a world unlike anything seen before, full of magic and friendship.

One of peace.

A gift of life, she'd hold dear to her heart always.

and that is the world Celestia spent her long reign doing her best to build for her little ponies! argh.

this was a lovely mix of heartwarming adorableness and heartbreaking future tragedies foreshadowed, joined by the strife and terror of a world at war far in the background. what a contrast to the Equestria of the modern age that we see, underscoring the gulf of time that separates the Royal Sisters of the present that we know, and the vastly different world that they grew up in.

and augh, i am so impressed with just how much personality Celestia, Luna, and Starswirl have here, and how perfect they are as the younger versions of the much older characters we see in the canon. i can imagine perfectly how they grew up from this point to what we saw, and how time has changed them. amazing work!

XD, went back and added more lisp speak on Luna.

"Eternwal night!? It would be bewtiful! " Luna extended her hooves to twirl in awe as her eyes glowed like the stars above.

Didn't expect for that bomb to be dropped so early. Suerly there was more to that than this one small exchange of sentences to give a spark. The rest of fic is pretty good for what it is. I like it!
