Was this inspired by the ending of 'The Goddess Within?' Because I reacted the exact same way Luna did to that revelation. I mean, that would make 99.99% of all the pony gene pool come from Celestia.
1513429 Yeah, that sometimes happens to me. I'll be walking along humming something I thought that I made up myself, only to hear it on the radio as I pass by.
Still, though, if you explain the concept and flesh it out to a satisfying degree, there's no problem.
Ummm, two problems. One: the cake twins were not with Celestia, seen by carrot's explanation. Two: Do you know how horribly mutated and complacent that would make them? *Sees Scootaloo* Nevermind...
You. Author. Your headcanon is six kinds of fucked up. You are a bad pony and you should feel bad. In other words, the world needs more awesome like this, please.
(My own brain is helpfully supplying: The biomagical cloning laboratory must have come in really useful when she was subsequently developing the spells that turned all of her alleles recessive and ensured sufficient genetic variability in her offspring. Otherwise Equestria would be a nation of white and/or inbred alicorns.)
1513950 That explanation was hasty and ended with "that makes sense, right?" And also the adult Cakes are earth ponies while the twins are not. Look at it that way and this makes some crazy sort of sense.
Wine only turns to vinegar if bacteria gets into to it to eat the alcohol. But yeah, 1000 years... it can only age so much. Beyond that it doesn't change unless contaminated.
Sorry for the delay, but now you know the Terrible Secret of Space.
But wait, there's more...
Wat.
best line of the story so far (Do you know what ponies in my day called it when I did that? 'Thursday!'")
I guess I was right about Celestia's balls, just that they DEFINATELY ain't blue LMAO!!!

Wow, not consciously, but now that you mention it, maybe it was and I wasn't even aware of it?

I just 'what the fucked " myself a little.

Somewhere in another universe, Zeus is cursing himself for not coming up with this.
As for the hows, it's bloody magic.
All of my wats
I nearly died laughing at Luna's reaction. Keep on good brony.

You're right, but I liked this outcome more, so I ignored that minor fact. And by that, I mean "it's magic, etc."
LOL I love how it is almost impossible to shock or disgust Luna.

I lol'd so bucking hard. I loved luna's reaction when she's starting to catch the hint about celestia fathering all those foals.
And now we see the truth: All the ponies are West Virginians....

I'm sure one or two ponies figured out 'tab A goes into slot B'

"I expected some horrible laboratory with half-formed ponies in glass tubes!"
good to know I wasn't the only one.
What the bleeding fuck.
