Backflipping through reality at ludicrous speeds. What does RB stand for, anyway? | Ko-Fi
Right Angle, Ponyville's resident building inspector, has seen a lot of strange domiciles in his life. Twilight Sparkle's castle, however, just might be the strangest.
The castle seems to think so, too.
Inspired by a discussion with the lovely Perfectly Insane. A big thank you to ChudoJogurt, gapty, and AllThatShimmers for prereading.
Ko-Fi. Y'know. If you feel like it.

Awwww.
Twilight, how many times has damage to the castle regrown overnight? Or just by looking away for a moment?
I feel like he could have led with that.
”Namepending Castle” is so impersonal, after all.
I’m always a sucker for having fun with the palace-tree and the logical ramifications of its progenitor. (And I can only imagine the other princesses’ reaction if they ever heard what their castles think of them, especially Granny Everfree.) Lovely bit of silliness. Thank you for it.
I call adorableness. Lots of it
... And this story comes out when?!
Either do a second chapter or a sequel where twilight gets to talk to . . it . . i guess?
Okay, that ending was a nice addition
Overall, my type of story. A fun way into a strange building, not even talking about the last person we met and what she stands for.
Okay. I like this. I like it alot.
Honestly, I feel like this should be the main takeaway here.

I do believe this is the plot of G5.

A connected blog says that a sequel will be happening, and in fact actually started planning first.
what's to report at this point other than the Castle promisses to abide by the Equestrian Standardized Building Code: Ponyville addendum, revised 789 P.E. and further revisions are to be posted through the slot on the door
really makes thing easier, no grandfathering required
Did Ember EAT part of the castle one time...?
Cute story. Fun to read
I can almost imagine the castle having a conversation with a tired Spike at some point, who was so out of it he didn't realize who he was talking to
That was a good story.
Wait, does that mean the castle's "manifested" to Spike before now too? And he also never thought it important to mention it to Twilight?

I could just see a ponified Captain Kirk shouting back "I NEED MY PAIN!"
This is very cute!
You know I never thought House of leaves and Friendship is magic would do well in a cross over, but fandom has surprised me once again.
Very awesome premise and execution! Enjoyed it thoroughly
I was already giggling almost nonstop while reading this, but I HAD to stop and comment when I got to this part because I CRACKED UP:
THIS WAS DELIGHTFUL and I am SO glad I happened to visit the site and explore the front page prompts today XD Thank you for sharing! I would like to know the castle's name! And quite frankly would enjoy spying on one of those castle-embodiment teaparties. Fabulous job, I laughed SO MUCH at Twilight's consternation especially XD
say……didn't that tree of harmony manifest once before? isn't this castle made by that tree? i'll say it again, that tree could use a character tag.
Pendingname Castle, but you can call her Penny.
Well, at least she's not a tsundere.
For some reason, the first thing that sprung to mind was Shinto.
Well written, cute, and fun!
I would very much like to see a sequel where Twilight meets the filly and has to try not to freak out or go full research mode. Overall, very cute and fun
Perfectly cute. Sequel, please.
I beleive one author decided the Castle was called Seshat?
As for the sentience, hologram etc etc?
Its an immense crystal optical quantum processor. The trick is Stopping it becoming sentient, ujust look at the less than billionth capability that is GPT etc.
It going to be fun when teh Castle starts playing with gem shards such as Neodymium Ytrium Aluminium Garnet, or Lithium Titanium Niobate.
A sequel. Please.

Oh absolutely xD it has a unique personality, history, and, well, everything enough that it caN have so many possible stories on it!
Fun but unpolished.
Not the first "Twilight's castle is alive" story I've seen, but it definitely had fun with the concept.
Lovley little bit of silliness. Into ‘Best of Comedyʼ this goes!
Also, headcannon accepted.
Quite the funny story you've got here. The thought that all the palaces are alive is making me invision Twilight telling the other Princesses about this and all of them going, "Oh, we knew that already."
It's okay. Satisfactory. Well polished. Kept me smiling from start to finish.
My only criticism would be; does it need the comedy tag? Comedy is perhaps the most subjective tag we have so it must be taken with a grain of salt. It wasn't so over the top that it became zany or insane, in fact it was low key and witty. Both of which are quite rare to run into these days.
yep. definitely amusing.
"I refuse to believe that my castle is alive, sapient, and manifesting as a little filly!"
"You didn't have any problem with a dog living under the map table and giving you friendship missions."
"Actually I had a LOT of problems with that, if you'll remember!"
"Hey, I resent that! I'm only doing my job as a manifestation of Harmony!"
"Oh, um, sorry... wait, no, did you know all about this?"
"Well, yes, I've been trying to get NP over her shyness for years now! And might I add, your skepticism is NOT helping!"
"She's not so shy with me."
"Well, of course not, Glimmer. You're polite, considerate, and you apologize for something at least once per day, unlike SOME ponies."
"And how am I supposed to apologize to someone who won't even let me SEE them?"
"Well, this is just me talking, but you could start by maybe BELIEVING THEY EXIST? Kind of an important first step here!"
"You know what? You two work this out. I'm going to go over to Sugarcube Corner with Spike if you need either of us."
"Could you bring me back two cupcakes with sprinkles?"
"And a box of dog biscuits."
"And some chocolate covered roofing shingles."
"WHO SAID THAT??"
*giggle!*
(I forget which fics have the Harmony Map run by a dog living in the base, but it amuses me to have both it and this be true simultaneously)
Ahhh, she has her mother's mentality
This was hilarious. I loved it! My only complaint is that there isn't more.
At least it wasn't twins. Twins+ long corridors = bad news.
All castles need a name. It's only right.

need to have a comic of this interaction :P I lol'd hard
11520774
Seshat is in TDR's very entertaining Twilight gets a puppy
I’d probably be laughing too.
11521032
I guess that depends on what your definition of 'comedy' is. Most people think its 'oh wow I get it that was a joke/reference haha', but it can also be witty stuff like you mentioned that just makes you smile but isn't zany to the point where you outwardly laughed or chuckled. I think this is still a comedy, but if you disagree then yeah I can sort of see that perspective.

I would say if the story is meant to instill a happy feeling or make you laugh in any way, it should have the comedy tag. Whether it achieves its purpose or not isn't indictive of if it should have the tag or not, but rather the tag represents the author's intention. If the writer wanted to use wit and banter instead of chaos and surreality, it's still their choice if they intend it to be a funny story.
Nice and enjoyable slice of life. Thank you for this.
More Namepending shenanigans. This is a good day.

Ah yes, the Sunset Shimmer Is MAD stories, if I'm remembering correctly.

To be fair, your entire body is literally covered in things that eat you, or at least your excess dead skin and oil.
