Okay SO BEFORE YOU READ there are some important things that need to be made note of:
1) This is a story I wrote years ago and submitted only to Equestria Daily. It was long ago enough that Sethisto was still one of the major moderators that oversaw the approval of content to the website, which just kind of shows this story's age now that there are teams of moderators doing that sort of stuff. I wanted to bring it over to FiMFiction to archive it and also introduce it to a new audience. It's an early story of mine so I don't feel the dialogue or story progression is at a standard I hold today, but I still see it as passable enough to archive on my FiMFiction account. That and...
2) Literally no one cares about it but I find this hilarious and I thought I'd share it with everyone here: I made the FIRST My Little Pony/Fallout fanfiction EVER. Years ago when the most major repository for MLP fanfiction to be widely seen by the Brony fandom was Equestria Daily, I remember randomly searching EqD to see if there were any Fallout-themed MLP stories to read because I was really into playing Fallout: New Vegas at the time. There were none when I searched EqD in early 2011, so on a whim, I decided to write the first Fallout/MLP piece (To my knowledge. One could have existed on a chan board or general fanfic website before, but I didn't know of it and if it did exist it seems to have been lost to time.) My story went up on EqD on Saturday, April 23, 2011. Kkat's Fallout: Equestria story was first submitted to EqD later that year on Sunday, December 25, 2011 with the prologue, introduction, and I think the first or second chapter ready to read. Don't get me wrong, I think Kkat's story is MUCH better in terms of character, writing, and story and deserves to go down into the MLP Fanfiction hall of fame for how influential it became on the fandom. I just think it's rather hilarious that Kkat's amazing story could have been all that AND one of the first widely released Fallout/MLP fanfiction crossovers...but my stupid little rinky-dink short story stole that thunder. Still, it just goes to show that the firsts to the finish line aren't always the first to be remembered.
Anyways, please enjoy this weird little quirky tidbit of MLP Fanfiction history haha.
The original Equestria Daily description:
Story: Blue Moon by Sethisto
[Crossover][Sad] Luna and Fallout? That's the wildest combo ever! I'm pretty sure Luna stories are default awesome judging by the 20 five star stories in her part of the archive.... but can she survive a nuclear crossover?
Author: Bongo
Description: Nuclear bombs have struck Equestria and the world is plunged into a nuclear winter. Princess Celestia is soon sick with radiation poisoning while trying to protect her smaller sister, Princess Luna. The great emotional intake is starting to take its toll on Princess Luna, as her world starts to grow darker and darker with sadness and grief... Based off the apocalyptic nuclear wasteland of Fallout: New Vegas. Best read when listening to Frank Sinatra's Blue Moon.
