Being sad can be fun.

Princess Celestia wants to teach her Faithful Student, the young Twilight Sparkle, the magic that the night sky holds. In an empty field that stretches on in every direction for miles, where there's no light to obscure or pollute the sky, the stars have as much of a voice as either of the ponies do.

very descriptive.... I LOVE IT!:pinkiehappy:

So many open Plot elements and holes. It's like fine Swiss cheese.:facehoof: Makes me want more but I know it is complete so my appetite will never be sated.:raritydespair:

2476424 I know! I would love more!

The plot... There's so many loose ends! Is Luna dead? How did Shining die? Was their no Nightmare Moon? Other questions? Many questions?

If the plot was a boat, it'd sink faster than the titanic. Not saying that it's a bad thing, but you've definitely left room for expansion.

I have a sad now... But it's a good sad. :pinkiesad2:

oh God, the feels hath descended upon me...
:fluttercry:

Love it. :pinkiesmile:

So i guess both Twilight parents and brother are dead (celestia saying Twilight has no one, even if just SA is confirmed to be dead).

At least Celestia gets to play mom to some extent and keep Twilight company. :fluttercry:

I'm guess this is post S3 and everypony Twilight knows besides her fellow immortals (except Luna) are dead. I have to admit I like this, the idea that ponies become the starts and continue to watch over the living, I like that and really sets this apart from all the other "emotality" fics that have popped up.

Seems it's actually alternate universe in which shining died at some point. Twilight's still a filly here after all. And Luna... might be dead? or just still imprisoned? Getting the feeling its the former though :unsuresweetie:

As for the story, well... I'm not really sure how to feel about it lol. Mostly confusion and slight touch of sadness. :applejackunsure: I don't much care about shining but a loss of Luna would suck alot lol :twilightsheepish:

Still my comment stands about the stars.

No.This is an Alternate Universe in which Twi's family is dead.Except Luna that is still sealed in the Moon.

2484157 the fic explicitly states that Twilight is a unicorn filly.

Being correct once is fine but the third time it's annoying. Yes I know it's AU, yes I know she is not an Alicorn, an full grown mare, and Luna is still in the Moon.

This was wonderfully bittersweet, and very well done. :twilightsmile: Interesting take for an AU, too. Is there a possibility of a story popping up from this, or is it just a one shot?

2488326 I think Luna is actually dead seeing that the moon is described as featureless. I'm sorry for being a bit of a wanker and correcting you though.

Looking at the amount of unresolved and unexplained headcanon I hadn't really realized was in here, the thought of making a story of Celestia's past has crossed my mind. I'd really like to get the 7 open projects I have opened and unfinished right now completed before starting something new, though.

For sure. If you get around to it though, I will totally read it. :twilightsmile:

At first I was like "wait, this doesn't work, if Twilight heard about Luna at this age then the series opener wouldn't work", but I kept reading to see if you'd accounted for that somehow... and then the AU hit, and it hit like a Mac truck full of feels. :raritycry: Well played, sir or madam.

god the feels!!!!!

THIS STORY IS SO EMOTIONAL AND AMAZING :')

Thank you very much! :twilightsmile:

“And we’ll always be together, right?”

I'm getting Lion King vibes.

You know what else I'm doing?

Crying. 👍
