I'm going to hell for this, but:
CUTIE MARK CRUSADERS GOTHIC CATHEDRAL RENOVATORS, YAY!

And then there was a moment when you saw it.

Oh no...they're right. I can absolutely see this happening.

Someone should make a fic where the CMC are responsible for burning down one of the most renown historical landmarks in Equestria if it hasn't been done already!

Cutie Mark Crusaders World-Beloved Wonder Arsonists!

Actually, without thinking too long, one realizes that CUTIE MARK CRUSADERS GOTHIC CATHEDRAL RENOVATORS might have been the CAUSE of the fire, being that the renovation is the apparent cause...

Or was this the joke the whole time?

Technically, turning something into ash would count for a sort of renovation...

That's how you get Phoenixes!

Right?

Well, I hear that one statue in the garden was never the same after they visited...

5045369

Or was this the joke the whole time?

Yes.

....dammit. I can't unsee it.

...it’s going to be a musical episode. They’ll be singing while it happens. It won’t be choir music...

On another site I did see the suggestion that the fire only happened because the gargoyles
had been removed (The historic protectors of Notre Dame)
I'd point out that the cathedral has survived a number of wars & citywide fires without a scratch

If you do this in the Triptych Continuum, WHEN is a bit of a problem
because Apple Bloom left to become Ratchet's apprentice. It would have to be set before Unstable Sale

You want a twist? Have Apple Jack, Cheerilee, & Rarity do it (as foals trying to get THEIR marks)

Hah! I was posting about Judge Frollo as it was happening!

I’m gonna Write this.

But where was all the tree sap?

I haven't seen a news report mentioning mysterious tree sap.


:pinkiegasp: It's a coverup!!

Ask SockPuppet first. He was considering using it.

Depending on the tree, tree sap can burn. :unsuresweetie:

(I saw a scout leader demonstrate with a cup full of gummy pine sap back in the day; it was impressive.)

My to-read queue has at least three stories that appear to be along these lines, although for some reason people think Twilight's the most likely culprit. :twilightsmile:

Somehow I'm imagining the CMC - that is to say, the old CMC several stories before Unstable Sale - using the FFine Brothers' Wood Spackle and doing an amazing job, having plenty of experience with sticky materials and an earth pony, unicorn and pegasus working together.

No cutie marks, unfortunately, but a very perplexed Twilight Sparkle.

Slightly off topic, but it plays into another pony’s character...

If there are 10 books on a bookshelf, they can be arranged in 3,628,800 different ways.

Countdown to next reshelving in 5... 4... 3...

Look, what is even the point of being a princess if you can't conflagrate a few things now and then?

If you tried a combination every second, it would take exactly six weeks to go through them all.

There's room in FIMfic for more than one. Please just give credit.

reminds me of an old "fox trot" cartoon:
Peter: "what are you doing?"
Jason: "i'm trying to decide if i should sort my games alphabetically or by category."
Peter: "what difference does it make?"
Jason: "what difference does it make?! when i have an urge to play a game i don't want to spend a lot of time looking for it, i want to find it that instant!"
Peter: "well considering that you only have SIX games to choose from..."
Jason "i don't think you understand the strength of these urges."

5045373 Good point. It couldn't have been the CMC, or the Gargoyles of Notre Dame would have come to life and started terrorizing people.

If you're going to go with my idea, I'd also add that "maybe Sweetie Belle's parents told her about this."
(Sweetie does have issues about her sister For Whom The Sweetie Belle Toils)

Or maybe Granny Smith told Apple Bloom (Not in the Triptych Continuum -the Apples have other things going on)

If AJ & Rarity blamed each other, it WOULD explain why they were estranged (as seen in Look Before You Sleep)
