Midwest Brony. Really appreciate critiques, especially if you catch grammatical errors. I'm far more used to prose and poetry than narrative, so any advice, hate mail, etc. is appreciated.

Have you ever been so angry that you turned your faithful student into a princess?

A tongue-in-cheek (hoof-in-mouth?) response to the fandom reaction following the announcement of Princess Twilight.

A story over 7,000 words about a princess turning into a lightbulb.

OH MY GOD IT WAS WRITTEN BY PONIVER

:rainbowlaugh::rainbowlaugh::rainbowlaugh::rainbowlaugh::rainbowlaugh:
omgroflmao!
Great story. Good lord, Celestia made Twilight a princess because she didn't know how to change a lightbulb. Hilarious!

This was ingenious. Faved.

I somehow knew that Twilight would be like "srsly?" , dood.

This made me laugh, dood. Awesome.

Yes, the madness is delicious!

Silly silly alicorns.

2094374 You talking about the story or the people comments, dood? (hard to tell with internet words.)

Former: Celestia has a book to read, Luna has night court, Cadance has to go sleep with Shining, and Twilight has to go back to Ponyville, dood.
Latter: JOKES ON YOU:trollestia:, prinnies don't have sexual organs, dood.....aw man.:raritydespair:

2094395 What's a prinnie?

Luna: This lamp has passed on! It's no more! It has ceased to be! It's expired and gone to meet its maker! It's a stiff! Bereft of life, it rests in peace! If you hadn't left it plugged in, it'd be pushing up the daisies! Its electrical processes are now extinct! It's off the twig! It's kicked the bucket! It's shuffled off its mortal coil, run down the curtain, and joined the bloody choir invisible! This...is an ex-...LAMP!!
Celestia: ...Better replace the light bulb then.

Sorry, had to write that after seeing the 'ex-lamp' line. XD

2094403 A human soul that has done crimes in his/her life time placed into a penguin suit to become the bitch of hell, dood. Google or Disgaea will explain it better.

Had to make a Monty Python reference for my gf. I imagine that Luna made that whole rant while she was shaking Celestia, but Celestia was tuned out for most of it.

You say that like people know who I am... do people know who I am?

Glad you all enjoyed my twisted humor. Thanks a lot

Also: OMG feature box? Wow. For a story this silly, that feels like an accomplishment. Good to know I can get featured without writing... dirty stuff...

BUT MUH AUTISM!

Genius little idea you have here. It was amusing to see the princesses in shambles, and still they all seemed in-character. A great light-hearted approach to this whole alicorn deal! I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Alicorns are silly.
Pinkie hoarding weapons. Party cannon.
All of this over a book. P.C. and P.L. did have a book
at.thd start of Season 3. Seems legit.

Two hours ago. TWO!!! This thing had 25 likes and 2 dislikes.:applejackconfused:
'Tis now on my read list.

Scratch that, 3 hours ago.

That was pretty entertaining.

This was a pretty awesome story.

And I have the answer to the title of the story.

NONE. Celestia would make Twilight and her friends do it :rainbowlaugh:

I don't think I'll be rereading this, but it was a fun read. A funny parody of what's been going on, lol--I approve. :pinkiesmile:

That ending...that made my night! :rainbowlaugh:

An amusing story. :twilightsmile: Oh, but one minor quibble:

The nubile princess yelped...

nubile [ˈnjuːbaɪl]
adj (of a girl or woman)
1. ready or suitable for marriage by virtue of age or maturity
2. sexually attractive
[from Latin nūbilis, from nūbere to marry]

Was that actually the word you were looking for, or...? :rainbowhuh:

An ever better question would be, how many words does it take for the Princesses to figure out what a light bulb is?

The answer is apparently over 7,000 :rainbowwild:

*gigglesnort* This is rich! Always love to see a less serious side of Celestia. And the author notes are right: even though the fandom's been a bit topsy-turvy over the past few weeks, let's not forget that sometimes, you just need to laugh to make your fears disappear.

That said, I'm a bit relieved that Pinkie Pie's request to be made an alicorn was ignored. Too much power in some dangerous hooves >_>

Well... one of Pinkie's requests was ignored, anyway.

Baha :rainbowlaugh: This was a good laugh, nicely done, ingenious concept :pinkiehappy:

That was thoroughly amusing! I knew Twilight becoming an alicorn is a stupid idea for stupid reasons.

I especially enjoy the reference to Monty Python... and I believe there's a reference to Charlie the Unicorn in there :pinkiehappy:

:rainbowlaugh: Even the Gods can't do everything right, this made my entire night, i bucking love it:ajsmug:

You know what's the best thing about this story? It would still be funny even if there was no Alicorn-drama.

2095666
Er whoops. I more thought of the word being defined as virginal and young/inexperienced. I know the word has sexual connotations though.
2095778
I've seen what happens when Pinkie becomes an alicorn. And all I have to say is this. A world without water, populated entirely by fish.

Amazing, not sure what I will think of the episode though, hope it's as good as this!
Elixir :yay:

WHY CAN'T THIS BE THE FINALE???!? pretty sure the ragefans would become laughingfans.

Now whose BRIGHT idea was this? Shine some light onto the subject. Wing it off on the next in line.

Great story, have some puns.

You sir, have made my day.

I was laughing all the way through and found it incredibly enjoyable, completely random and very silly - but in a good way.
It's about time someone else took a silly approach to the whole Twilight-Alicorn thing ;)
Hehe, great job :rainbowlaugh:

Glorious. Truly glorious. Though I really want to see what Pinkie does with/to the guards.

Goddamnit man you forgot to mention the change in Twilight's voice when Morgan Freeman takes over her voice acting role.

2097259 "Twilight raised a hoof to silence the nonbeliever...."

Don't they say in Charlie the Unicorn "SHUN THE UNBELIEVER!" or something like that or am I reading to much into it? :derpyderp1:

2097538 Oh Tara Strong. She is such a troll. :twilightsheepish:

Effin' hilarious. The part with Pinkie was especially inspired. :pinkiehappy:

This is glorious.

Oh dear sweet Celestia, what do we have here?

FUN! :pinkiehappy::pinkiehappy::pinkiehappy::pinkiehappy::pinkiehappy:

The lamp has ceased to be! Bereft of all life, it rests in peace! It has expired and gone to meet its maker!

This! Is an ex-lamp!

Well, if nothing else, this scenario ensures that there will be at least one semi-sane Princess in Equestria.

Lightbulb burnt out? None of the other princesses know how to fix it? Solution: create a new one who does!

But Cadence moved to the crystal kingdom...

I was talking about Twilight Sparkle. And, yes, I know that things are bad if we're listing Twilight as the 'sane' one.
