Meme's Checklist for the Luna Tag

You know, a commenter once told me that this was going to be half a mile long or something. Let’s see how that measures up.

[] She’s just there because it’s a Celestia fic.

[] Fluffy fic with Luna and Celestia’s relationship

[] Dark fic with Luna and Celestia’s relationship

[] In fact, I could end this list right now by saying that Luna fics come in two flavors: Dark and gritty or silly and slice-of-life. The gritty shit is long and boring and the slice-of-life shit is short and boring. Save for the OC romance fics, because that shit can be silly, gritty, boring and loooo-

[] -oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooonnnnnnnnnnggggggggg.

[] Luna’s an introvert

[] Gamer Luna

[] Princest

[] Luna is Mare-Do-Well

[] Detailed description of Canterlot’s politics

[] Twilight acquires control of the stars

[] Pipsqueak gets adopted

[] Pipsqueak gets shipped

[] Luna’s just there because a human arrived and he’s immediately brought before Canterlot.

[] Human gets shipped

[] Butchered Shakespeare

[] Butchered Shakespeare in the Royal Canterlot Voice.

[] Luna talks normal

[] Luna invades a weird dream

[] Luna invades a wet dream

[] Nightmare Moon is Luna’s split personality

[] Season 1 Luna

[] Season 1 Luna is Luna’s split personality

[] Nightmare Moon is horny

[] Luna doesn’t approve of who Celestia is shipped with.

[] Batponies have dark and gritty backstory.

[] Silly slice of Life

[] Nightmare Moon is Discord’s fault

[] Nightmare Moon was Sombra’s fault

[] Luna and Sombra shipping

[] Luna was once a pegasus

[] Origin story that doesn’t explain what Element that Luna wielded.

[] Chysalis needs an ex-villian who understands her

[] Luna becomes Nightmare Moon over Twilight Sparkle

[] Luna’s just there because Nightmare Moon’s there. I know, it makes my head hurt too.

[] Luna employs an old political maneuver that affects a specific pony. It doesn't mix well with modern society. Shenanigans, humiliation, and possibly clop ensures. Surprisingly, she can never undo this or consult Celestia first.

[] New Lunar Republic

[] There’s a Night Court so Luna has something to do.

[] Angsty fic

[] Ansty human gets shipped with angsty Luna. Double points if he’s a soldier.

[] Luna and Celestia go over a petty squabble, such as dietary habits or a pillow fight. That is the premise of the fic.

[] Luna and Celestia as foals.

[] “Pony Verbs a Noun” story

[] Woona nickname

[] Lulu nickname

[] Time skip to when all of the Mane Six are dead. (Twilight’s death is optional)

[] Time skip to when all of the Mane Six are dead (Twilight’s death is optional) and Celestia & Luna have to find the next Element bearers. (Not really seeing these fics anymore since the Season 4 premiere)

[] Celestia is Nightmare Moon with a different name.

[] Luna’s just there because somepony became an alicorn and that pony is brought to Canterlot at once.

[] In fact, this "bought to Canterlot at once" thing happens whenever something new and strange happens in Equestria. Which by the way, is a lot like the frquency of something new and strange happens in Canon!Ponyville. Frankly, I think it would be OOC for Celestia and Luna to look at every single new/strange thing that came their way, since weird shit is going down every other week in the next town over.

[] Luna’s just there because all of Mane 6 have become alicorns.

[] It involves Luna getting married. This is one of the longer fics. In the sequel she gets pregnant. This is even longer. By the time they actually raise the kid, it's guaranteed to be incomplete.

[] Luna and her sister raise a human kid.

[] No seriously, I can not stress how much Luna stories have the Human and/or OC tag. AND ARE LONG. (Also, go read the Unexpected Love Life of Dusk Shine. I forgot to count how many checks that story hits.)

[] Obligatory check: Luna/Mane 6 pairing.

now the third character cliche checklist... Trixie
and then after her around the time Season Six starts, Chrysalis

also this list is too damn short, it was obviously overly generalized
I think Lunaverse should still be there even if you have Celestia is Nightmare Moon as a different name to cover it

[Neko Majin C]

Asking might prove to be a fruitless endeavor, but does the fact you tagged the story and mentioned it at the end of the blog mean a new chapter is coming out soon?

[Haku1013]

[] She takes Trixie as her personal student

[] Says something like "Huzzah" and "The fun has been doubled" every chapter.

[] Story that has to do with SPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACE.

Night Court ... I loved that show.
John Laroquette, Harry Anderson, Richard Moll, Charles Robinson, Marsha Warfield...

Has someone already done this one? Because I'd love to see it.

[RanmaChaos]

When will a new chapter of "The Unexpected Love Life of Dusk Shine" come out?

[Alkonium]

I think I managed two fics filling none of that criteria.

[Bluecho]

You forgot Futa. This tends to happen a lot in the Twincest fics.

[DannyJ]

...Can't fault you for accuracy I guess.

True.

[Chiman1293]

These are quite funny. I enjoy reading these. Please keep doing them. Keep up the good work meme.

[DayDrifter75]

...But I thought my Luna is Mare-Do-Well fic was the only one...

[QuietPonder]

Was a fic I remember from a long way back where it was Scootaloo dying and Luna acting as a guide of the dead. Dark yes, gritty no. Not sure where that'd go here.

Maybe just trying to find a flaw.
Or maybe I win.

[FanOfMostEverything]

[] Butchered Shakespeare

Did you mean butchered Early Modern English? Because this makes me think she's misquoting Henry V.

[] Nightmare Moon is Luna’s split personality

Guilty.

Surprisingly, she can never undo this or consort Celestia first.

You definitely meant "consult." At least, I hope you did.
