Lero, don't you dare be comfortable with this. You are starting to accept the swap situation.
Well, that was fun. Glad to see Lero and the rest of the herd are adjusting well. Heat-powered crazy-mare meltdowns are not something I want to see.
And now, unless the schedule has slipped again, I get to look forward to my belated Hearth's Warming present.
3741219
Zontargs... My word of honor, the Princess Luna chapter will be coming up NEXT.
Stay tuned.
GREAT CHAPTER
I HAVE NO WORDS JUST WOW
See, this is why I say Lero is the world's greatest fuck. What mere man could tailor sex to four different women (mares) at a time, satisfying each? If Lero had a cutie mark, it would be an iron cock.

Sexy times, information on sexy times, then TONS of sexy times. Quite the chapter good sir. It shall provide me with lolz for the coming weeks
Looking forward to that Luna chapter. Really liked getting more details on estrus. Now I'm trying to figure out how things are going to over to go so wrong so that dash ends up at the cottage. That and whether rarity will leave the herd and why or branch off from further tales and keep her in the herd.
3742448
Actually, I've discussed it with the Further Tales author, and we've agreed that some of the backstory details of Divided Rainbow and Further Tales are just too different to be the same continuity. We're sharing ideas and I'm trying to make my bit stick as close as possible because allot of the ideas are really cool, and the collaborative and sharing nature of the storytelling in our little community is awesome, but considering them part of the same story universe isn't going to really be possible.
That, of course, has no relevance to Rarity's decision- except point out that we're under no obligation to reinstate the Status Quo at the end.
3742448
Or maybe I'll spring a completely different plot twist on you all that none of you will have ever seen coming from a million miles away.
Stay tuned!
Best.Line.Ever, looks like that Rainbow Dash inherited the "Flutterage" part.
Bravo that chapter was really nice. Hawt. Funny.
Lero can tell that he almost fucked out butterflies from a cutie mark. Quite achievement.
Also, hillarious, Lyra and her way to disable Rarity was neat.
But geez when I'm thinking about how Lero is feeling down there even with boosters.... God bless for magic in Equestria. Healing spells are must have this time.
3742037 As Far as I'm concerned he can start a new sport discipline. Iron Cock competition.
3742553
It's already incompatible on the face of it anyhow; XFT specified that Lyra got swapped out with Bon-Bon, for one thing, while Divided Rainbow has alluded to Advanced while not incorporating the results of the Blank Plague, etc. Fun stories on both sides, with interesting ideas that might cross-pollinate from time to time, but not sharing a timeline.
3743550
Yeah, I didn't mention the Lyra/Bon-Bon swap because that Idea hasn't even been mentioned when he and I discussed it. but yeah, I see it as us mutually building the world and sharing the results while telling unrelated stories.
No excuse? HE IS A MASSAGER, He DEALS with pegasus all the time AND has training with a griffin on how to massage ponies and griffin, he should KNOW the most of the 3, seriously they teach him those place to AVOID them, he has the perfect excuse. Or did you forgot that, little detail?
3744147
If there is one thing that makes no sense was Lyra and Bon Bon being switched. That always bugged me in further tales.
3745683
Yeah, but he's legitimate- he doesn't do happy endings. Mostof his professional training would be on how to relax those areas without turning them on.
3756005
Correct he don't do happy endings, but he know they exist being sloppy can raise red flags as well, besides if he KNOW about those place don't you think he, will research a bit of them? I mean a massager that know about secret places, now helping a new mare a pegasus not to mention that they have being seudo dating for a while, wouldn't just research?
Not to mention with all those warnings, any other human would start thinking, 'ja, so they are sensitive I wonder how much' I still think he has the perfect excuse he want to make something special for Dash so he research how to massages wings and want to experiment his fingers with them, don't you think?
3751258
Well, the issue seems to be a disagreement on how the spell works- me and Mike, seeing the elements of harmony scrambled around, decided that the spell itself targeted the elements, and the mane six became scrambled because of their close link to them.
On the other hand the FT author interpreted the spell as some sort of test or challenge that intentionally targeted your loved ones, hence it functioning differently in his story.
3756313 3751258
Rik's got it pretty much nailed on the head.
Somehow, it went completely over my head that "the FT author interpreted the spell as some sort of test or challenge that intentionally targeted your loved ones," (If so, it begs the question: why was Spike untouched?)
I always thought he was just trying for something 'different.'
I took a very literalistic interpretation of Starswirl's unfinished spell and tried to be as abosuletly faithful to the Magical Mystery Cure TV episode as possible within the context of Xenophilia's world, (such as with Twilight going to work on it ASAP, instead of setting it aside and forgetting all about it for as long as she does in FT.)
To me, the spell's a seriously defective piece of magic that targets the Elements of Harmony and their Bearers, just as shown in the TV show, scrambling their memories, cutie marks, and life roles. It needed to be fixed not so much as a 'test,' a 'challenge' or a rite of passage, (as though Celestia were simply giving Twilight some kind of final exam,) but for much the same reasons that a dormant bomb needs to be defused. It's DANGEROUS.
Regardless, the FT author's free to make his own interpretation. Frankly, I'm very curious to see him actually go and write it, just to see how he executes his vision.
3756005 3756022
Like Rikmach says, Lero doesn't do 'happy endings' when operating as a professional masseur. He works in a spa, not a cathouse.
On one hand, your arguments are not without merit, Lightingace. I can see where you're coming from, and Lero could've used 'research' as an excuse for having foreknowledge about the sweet spots on Dash's wings, just as Twilight had.
But the Swap's made Lero a very guarded fellow, who watches his every word. He'd rather err on the side of caution than boldness. Ignorance -- a simple 'I don't know' -- is a much easier lie to fall back on than an alibi.
Besides, I give you my word as author that this won't set off any red flags with Rarity or Rainbow Dash. They understand Lero's not perfect, and that he sometimes goofs every now and then. They're willing to live and let live.
But I also assure you that this heat gives Lero the perfect excuse for Lero to "learn" everything he "didn't" know about pegasus sweet spots.
And we all know Lero's such a "quick study"...
3756655
...Mike, I think you just gave me a brilliant idea. I'll explain as soon as I see you on google next.
3756655
If it switched loves ones then how was Lero not touched? Why was the relationship between Rarity/Bon Bon and the herd not altered in any way because of it? It just raises too many questions.
Anyway, in the past when it was just three of them Lero with the stamina drink could pull it off. Here it looks like he was about to be overworked and this was just the first day. He might just see the idea of a second stallion helping as a real possibility with the herd getting bigger. Possibility of Fluttershy wanting to join is possible thanks to how things are shaping up.
3756835
O…k, thanks to clarify that
3757170
Well, keep in mind, my "Explanation" is based on a brief conversation months ago. It might simply be that it only affects ponies, and Spike and Lero aren't valid targets. I dunno, ask the writer.
3213954 The cover art is nice, and well made...
But I can't help but laugh at Lero, his position is so...
It just makes me laugh every time I see it
And now, he kissed the Butterfly Mark.
Things will be so weird after unswapping...
3741093
Yeah, that little bit of internal monologue was really damn alarming/disturbing.
EDIT: I imagine it was supposed to be like a hopeful/positive/uplifting epiphany, but instead... Eugh, did not give me a good feeling.
3776779 3741093
Heh heh heh...
I'm not going to say whether you two are wrong or right to feel uneasy and disquieted by how Chapter 26 ended. (Don't want to spoil the ending, after all!)
Either way, I genuinely applaud you simply for seeing it from a different point of view, trying to read between the lines, and coming up with this different interpretation on Lero's situation... so thought-provoking and rife with dramatic possibilities!
Yes, has Lero truly scored the victory he believes he did?
Or is the Swap a far more insidiously subversive piece of magic than any of us could've ever suspected?
Stay tuned!
3776927
Well, the swap magic tried forcing them to be only about their cutie marks and it didn't work. Lero found a way to make the swap work in harmony while under the curse without changing it. It feels threatened but recognizes if it can win over the human and the purple pony then it has nothing to worry about.
After all, this life is actually pleasant now. No need to bring yourself more heartache when everything is unswapped and you have to face the consequences.
DAMN YOU WRITE WELL SON!!
I've always been impressed with your story arc but hell, this is one of the best chapters i've read in a long time, thats a fact. Gushiness aside I simply cant wait to see how you play this all out, the subliminalist and the face value reader in me are having a deathmatch at the moment.
GODSPEED!
I'm really wondering what would happen if they go back to normal. I imagine the cutie marks as more of the memories and not the personalities. The feelings, not the reason. So rarities memories and feelings would return to dash, so dash still loves him, but dashes mark returns to flutter, oh man what's gonna happen. I think like this because even with the swapped marks, rarity is still totally rarity, dash is dash. So if they go back and rarity doesn't love them, they still would love her. It's a sticky situation though on how much the body remembers.
3826386
If Rarity does deserve some sort of comeuppance because she believes Lero to be weak in the prologue... I'd personally say she's more than atoned for it by this point in the story.
Of course, this is just one man's opinion.
Im just curios but how many chapters are there going to be?
3833354
At least nine.
3833733 Wow that's great. I was getting worried we were nearing the end.
3832754
Now that I've reached this part of the story, I can wholeheartedly agree with that.
Aw, thanks! It's the fans like you that make the writing worthwhile!
Yeah. This WILL be an aspect of the whole dilemma that Our Heroes will need to eventually face.
3885195
Experimentation Phase oh no are we coming up to the beginning of act three, it feels to soon
-- Yes, Act 3 is approaching, bit by bit.
but on a lighter note, this chapter brought out so many feels. I really enjoyed the scene in Hollandaise at the beginning, oh and Raritys thoughts on that conversation and... well I guess I loved everything
Keep up the great work.
-- Thanks! My collaborators and I are cooking up a good one for the next chapter!
3887328 OMG
I forgot I said that, Lmao.
3888651
Just wait until you get to 'Visions Of Elsewhere.'
And I'm glad you're enjoying it, Adam!
3889305 I was quite thinking along the lines of a full blown story about it. Like, not every single combination in one but maybe like one story focusing on Rarity the Farmer, Fluttershy the Wonderbolt(may not be correct labeling), Pinkie Pie the Caretaker, Appelejack the Party Pony and Rainbow Dash the Fashionista. I just think that'd be really interesting. Although two others did catch my attention...the Celestia/Twilight swap was interesting as well as Fluttershy being Leros lead mare.
Onto other news, I do not see this story ending well IF they get things fixed. Whose to say Rarity will still love them afterwords? That's just heartbreaking. Especially because Rares my second fav pony and I don't want to see her get hurt. Oh dear Celestia this would be worse for me if Fluttershy was somehow involved in the herd (shes first fav).
Though quite honestly, other than what this story has told me, I do not have a clue who Lero is, how he got to Equestria or what. I don't think I want to full explore the canon behind the story though. Not decided though.
This chapter was a real joy to read Thank you very much.
This is another great chapter with many great plot points, (both current and future) the Feedbag magazine article, Spike, Fluttershy joining the herd AND Leros new point of view on the swap
I'm now also curious to how Fluttershy will feel after swapping back i.e. Rarity inherited Rainbows feeling so will Fluttershy inherit Rainbows new feelings? if so how will that mix with what's left of Fluttershy the comedians feelings and memories, that's going to be a large, very strong and colorful cocktail to knock back.
That scene where Twilight flexes her magical muscle, it felt to me like she was still only flexing her little finger (yes this is somewhat difficult but I'm still well within my comfort zone ) if that is the case lets hope nothing breaks that self control thread (Jean Grey as Dark Phoenix anyone, and I'm not referring to the one from the X-men 3 movie ).
Keep up the great work, I can't wait to read what coming up next
P.s. Tapioca pudding.
3741355
Luna next! Great now I really can't wait until the next chapter
3743356
Goodness that's exciting, I do love a well executed plot twist, now to start rereading some chapters to see if I can spot some clues
3833733
Oh hell yeah at LEAST 9 more chapter's woo woo, but be warned I'm going to prod, push and pull you to lean towards your MOST number of chapters.
I am also loving these long long chapters, I can remember feeling tired whilst reading chapter 20, checks clock... 3am...checks progress bar... 2/3 read... and then I was torn , torn between staying up and finishing this this now! or wimping out and getting some sleep.
3892816
Nnnnope! I simply cannot do EVERY possible combination. (At least not by myself!)
Tell you what, Adam, if you really are interested in this combination, then PM me on my fimfiction.net mail, and maybe we can talk.
I actually liked Shy wearing Dash's mark and being Lero's lead mare as well. She was adorable! It was thrilling seeing her be both affectionate and gutsy!
Wish I could comment, but that would be spoilers.
Are you saying that Divided Rainbow is your first-ever exposure to the Xenophilia world? Alright, then, let me fill you in.
Divided Rainbow is meant as a recursive sequel to another fanfiction called Xenophilia.
http://www.fimfiction.net/group/1699/xenophilia-hq
Xenophilia show us how how Rainbow Dash and Lero first fall in love, her introducing him to the concept, (and helping him through the hoops) of being a 'stallion' in a polygamous, matriarchal herd. Then Twilight joining their herd... and many, many bedroom antics ensue along the way!
It gives a LITTLE more insight into Lero's origins, though not extensively.
I recommend at least giving Xenophilia a look. The worldbuilding is phenomenal... and it'll help give a stronger sense of context as to WHY Lero bends over backwards for Swapped Dash in Divided Rainbow.
I also HIGHLY recommend giving a different story a look: Into The Hedge.
http://www.fimfiction.net/story/151951/into-the-hedge
It's something I, myself, am collaborating on with its author, and fully has my Divided Rainbow canon-consistency seal of approval! It takes place smack-dab in the middle of Divided Rainbow, (right about where the story is now, with Swapped Rainbow Dash being Lero's 'fourth' mare.)
Its focus is on the world Lero used to be in before arriving in Equestria. By all means, give it a read!
3893114 I don't know how to do that fancy quote bubble thing so bare with me here.
I wasn't suggesting you do them all, or any one person do them all. I was just merely saying that thinking about all the possibilities is fun and very intriguing (embarrassing, I forgot how to spell that for a moment) makes me want to try writing out a possibility for myself.
Again I was not saying you have to do this, though I'm sure it'd be great if you did. I'm kind of tempted to try it myself honestly, but as shown my by only story on here I aint that good of a writer...well. I don't think i'm bad, but I need to improve and I don't think I can do that kind of story the justice it deserves. I'd be willing to try though. I'm babbling again, dammit. Back to main point I'm not gonna continually pester you about this certain swap. Not apposed to workin something out however, maybe help work out a plot or something.
WAIT! did you actually peek into that swap in this story and I missed it? how in Celestia's mane did I miss that.
Damn those spoilers. I keep getting them when I scroll down to far on stories and see em. wait. you can't comment on the Fluttershy involved part either? suspicious. or maybe i'm just being silly.
why does that word make me think of the movie Aliens? random bit aside, I may or may not look into it. I keep finding all these different stories on here I absolutely love and I can't finish some before finding more! Like the Lunaverse. I found that last week....I'm on story 7 now. Sudden reminder...forgot to like this..back to the top!
3892940
I'm really glad you're enjoying it! Yes, the stage is being set for an all-new story arc of Divided Rainbow, and all the plot points you mentioned have an important part to play.
I feel so bad that I can't answer this question yet! Especially since it keeps cropping up here in the comments!
Twilight's magic is VERY powerful. She would indeed be a terror if she were ever to turn to the dark side.
I can't wait to have it all written out!
Ha ha ha, yep! Swapped Rarity's a bit more of a playfully good-natured tease than her old fashionista self was.
Neither can I.

The clues that I've planted which foreshadow what's next to come are very subtle, obscure and easy-to-miss, but they're there. Good luck finding them!
I absolutely love your enthusiasm!
3893257
I didn't know how to do that either until I found an faq, it can be found here
3893259
All Hail Ubercorn Twilight The All Powerful wait what! when did I become 2nd best?
I just want to say that this is one of the best additions to the xenophile universe. I would say its even better than the original, if we didn't need the original for this to exist. Keep up the good work. I am in barely contained exicetment for the next chapters! This is on of the few fics in gonna read a second time. That's pretty amazing considering I found out about it less than a month ago.
