    With permission from MallaJong, I am continuing the story of Spike and Princess Luna's relationship.

    Fair warning, my writting skills are not of his level, so please bear with me.

    After the Grand Galloping Gala, Spike returns to Ponyville and continues as Twilight assistant. However, the connection with the Princess leaves them both wanting more. But with their duties to perform, such luxuries are few and far in-between. When can they meet again, and how will they go about it without raising suspicions?

    Okay, friend. I like the direction, and all. Good story to say the least, but one thing clear, use italics for letters as well as journal entries if those will incorporate into the story, and there should not be an intermittent comment in the story like the rules say. Un-bold the author note and just a little lesson in Ye Olde English,

    1. Thy is "your" when referring to the person.

    2. Thine is "your" as in ownership.

    3. Ye is "you" at the beginning of a sentence.

    4. Thou is usually "You're" but I'm not sure.

    5. I don't know much upon the -eth suffix, but it could be past-tense as far as I'm concerned.

    That's about all I think I know, I'm not sure on any of these but there's always Wikipedia :raritywink:

    >>1350714 actually, the "thy, thine, ye, thou, ex..." is best expressed in a chart:

    Nominative Objective Possessive

    1st sing I Me My/Mine

    1st plur We Us Our/Ours

    2nd sing Thou Thee Thy/Thine

    2nd plur Ye You Your/Yours

    3rd sing He/She/It He/Her/It His/Hers/Its

    3rd plur They Them Their/Theirs

    >>1351012 oh... I just remembered... the "-est" thing...

    apparently, in early english it was added onto verbs used by the singular second person (thou) but only on the present or past tense. For example:

    to know: Thou knowest, Thou knewest

    to make: Thou makest, Thou madest

    to be: Thou beest (or "Thou art"), Thou wast (or "Thou wert", but was originally "Thou were")

    to do: Thou dost ("Thou doest" in non-auxiliary use), Thou Didst

    and the rule also affected "shall" and "will" as well (Thou Shalt, Thou wilt)

    PS as a side note: a common abbreviation for "Thou" was "Þͧ" or "Þu" much like the origin of "Ye" was actually an abreviation of "The" as "Þͤ" or "Þe"

    I read it and I still dont get it. But I appreciate the notes. I'll look into them in a bit. Thanks.

    I have taken your advice and re-done a little of the story. I have removed the bold on the 'letters' as well as removed the 'intermittent comment'. Then I tried to streamline the story together.

    Again, thanks for the advice.  :twilightsmile::twilightsmile:

    As for the Elizabethan English... well... thats gonna take a little more practice before I'll dare to use it.   :pinkiehappy::pinkiehappy:

    :moustache:  A continuation of a Spike/Luna?  You bet I'm tracking this.

    Just one thing, I know what you were trying to do, but maybe you should have made use of "A Canterlot Wedding" instead.  The canon in "Luna Eclipsed" really seemed to chain you down in what you could do with Spike and Luna.  You need not be a slave to canon.

    This is MallaJong. I apologize for the fact that I am commenting without reading it yet (I will soon, I promise).

    First off, I am so grateful for the fact that you have continued the story. I promise to promote this story to the fans of Spike's Luna (one way or another). Thank you for providing a continuation. I am happy that you produced a chapter.

    I'll comment once I read it. Thank you again! :)

    Wow... thanks everyone. :twilightsheepish::twilightblush::twilightsheepish:... I'll try my best not to disappoint.  :twilightsmile:

    Lets see here ...  

    Dragon Master Spike

    I know using 'A Canterlot Wedding' would have made it easier, but there is a reason behind me using 'Luna Eclipse'. Long story short, there is another story out there titled 'Spike's Luna' which was written during the events of 'The Great Galloping Gala', and with permission from the author, I am continuing from said date. Pushing it after the wedding would have left too big a time gap. :pinkiesmile:

    Also, I do not see it as a slave to canon. I see it as a challenge. To see if I can keep the story going from another point of view, having the freedom to place anything anywhere I want, to create a whole new story, while having its initial barriers to have to weave through. Kinda like 'Back to the Future 2' movie. :twilightblush::twilightblush:

    Minor formatting quibbles: If a quote is followed by a dialogue tag, use a comma:

    "Hello," Spike says. <- CORRECT

    "Hello." Spike says <- INCORRECT

    Also, while more a matter of preference, italics tend to be used for thoughts rather than speech.

    Overall a good start though.

    I didn't notice the "Part 1" on the chapters title. :twilightsheepish:

    What I find... awkward of this story, is that most stories take place at a time when Spike has grow up a bit. It gets funny when I think about how small he must look at the side of Luna XD But don't worry about it. I'm jut thinking aloud.

    Keep it up.

    Noticed an error.

    Does my little Spikie-Wikie know something about this?

    I don't think Rarity is suppose to be calling Spike "Spikie-Wikie" just yet. The events of Sweet and Elite occurred before the events of Secret of my Excess, which is where Rarity first uses her nickname for spike.

    True, it is the first time its mentioned in the series, and yes, I am aware of when it was used, but who is to say that it is only in 'Sweet and Elite' is that term FIRST ever used. :raritywink::raritywink:

    >>1530280 You... DO know how to reply to comments, right? And also, italics aren't used for normal speech. It's sorta the rules for English. And the tense keeps shifting from present to past -tense.

    1) Pick either past or present tense. Stop using both.

    2) Remove those italics in the dialogue. Italics are for emphasis, thoughts and spoken quotations, and nothing more.

    So u want me to go and change the italics from the previous chapter(s)? Sorry, too lazy to do that. The fact that I already stopped using italics is good enough for me.

    And yes, I was already told about the shifting tenses....There is no need to repeat. If you read it in the lastest chapter, then I apologize....

    >>1694653 Yep, the lastest chapter is gooder than the last one. In fact, it's probably the bestest chapter. I wondered if you were really that lazy, but then I realized that you just weren't very smart. Of course, when you replied to my comment with insults, and, due to your inability to use the reply button, I never read it, I put together a sandwich and watch episodes of Justice League.

    If you thought that my earlier comment was an insult, then I apologize for it was not meant as an insult, just how I feel about it. And if the 'gooder', and 'bestest chapter' crack was an insult as well, then I have to say it was a cheap one. Also, if you believe that I am not a smart person, then well, so be it. After all, that's just your opinion. The reply button? Yeah, I don't know how to use it. It just comes out numbers. I guess its the post number. But like I said, I'll live. And if you judge the contents of the story from my latest comment on your comment, as well as the fact that I do not know how to use the reply button, well, its your loss really. Oh and lastly, I was watching Iron Man - Armored Adventures myself earlier.  :twilightsmile::twilightsmile::twilightsmile:

    You probably don't care, but when you hit the reply button it puts those numbers in on purpose. After you post the reply the numbers turn into their name and in turn they receive a notification, which makes everything easier
