After a 1000-year condemnation on the moon, Luna has rehabilitated her position as Princess of the night.

A slumber party is a decision Luna makes on her endeavor, so are the six equines as special guests. With aid from Celestia, Luna just might make her first step.

This isn't necessarily my first attempted fanfic, but it's my first completed one. I hope you readers will enjoy; criticism is appreciated.

Sometimes, when you leave home for a while you come back to things feeling different.
A week and you may find lots of mail.
A month and your neighbors have started using your driveway for trash can storage
A year and people wonder when your house was abandoned
Ten years and your neighbors are probably gone
A century and your house is probably demolished, and a happy cybernetic family has moved in atop its remains.
Two centuries and people would ask why you are using "classic English"
A millennium and you may find you no longer recognize what those things in the sky are, and why the floor keeps glowing for no reason
A million years and you may find your species had to abandon its home-world
A couple million years, and you would find yourself in the situation I ended up in.

Update, May 11: Published the re-written chapter 2! Left certain parts out, put a few new parts in; it's more or less the same, but I'd like to think that I've ironed out the wrinkles enough to start up the final chapter!

As a long time anti-brony, Morgan has always hated Friendship Is Magic. It doesn't help that his two best friends are bronies that are hell bent on getting him to give the show a try.

Rarity invites Applejack and Twilight over to help her taste a new case of wine from Canterlot.

My Little Ponies are, well, little. And alcohol works fast on them.

A conversation with Applejack spurs Fluttershy to check up on Twilight's mental well-being. Twilight's reaction to her encouragement, however, is probably not what she had in mind...
