I'm unable to read it at the moment do to a splitting head ache, but I've got this at the front of my reading list. Knowing you, I can only imagine how adorable and funny this story is and I give it maybe 10 - 60 minutes before it's featured and all know the glory of Ghost Chrysalis, the Spoopiest Queen
3421167
Nah, I doubt that.
3421158
Agreed, its completely adorkable!

I'm surprised that there have been so few to read this so far with that ADORABLE pic
Larvaesitter would work better.
Also, "Siddie" ends up changing coat color apparently... He goes into town with a gray coat, but when he is found by Chryssie, he is white .-.
I just hafta say.... LOL D'AWWWWW

Whoopsie, fixed. Thanks for pointing that out.
A nice slice of pointless fluff. Damn it these make for good pick me ups.
I get the nightmare before Christmas reference in the title there buddy
3421456 I don't give a Fawkes about your Order of Phoenix!
Words cannot describe the pure intense joy and heart-exploding adorableness that is this fic. You have no idea how many times I screamed at how adorable Chrysalis was during the entire story.
That was adorable.
Gotta admit, that was pretty darn cute, and I'm not even usually a fan of "good Chrysalis" stuff; too easy to Mary Sue her, but you did a real nice job Mr101, hat's off to ya! Have a Happy Halloween!

Yeah, couldn't help but imagine that scene but with a changling head for Obiwan, and Obsidian's pony disguise for Anakin's.

Great story by the way!
I saw "chrysalis' First" and I was like :D
but then it was nightmare night and I was like
Have all of my dawwwsss. All of them.
It's cute, but the issue I keep coming back to is that it's Chrysalis. It feels so at odds with her depiction in the actual series. And while I know, sure, she was younger and could've changed as she grew up (even though the whole experience feels like it'd have the opposite effect and guide her away from the way she turned out...), but it still feels implausible.
I mean, I still like the story, and it's rather funny, but it doesn't make as much sense as the ones that had Celestia and Luna because the whole thing centers on a villain.
*Sees cover image*
*Reads*
regardless of how chryssie turned out in the end a nice story, really liked this when they were young series.

I don't understand your reasoning. Are you suggesting that Chrysalis was a villain even as a young child?
ER MAH GERD! THE ADORABLE! SO MUCH ADORABLE! in all seriousness though, I do enjoy me some of the "lighter side" of chrysalis.
duuude, make more of this series. like do sombra or NMM or more Chrysalis
Oh, for the lost days of youth, that we both cheer and mourn at their passing remeberance.

An out-and-out villain? Probably not. But we are talking about a fairly hefty change between her depiction here and her depiction as an adult, which I feel hurts the charm of the story.

We're also talking a pretty hefty time-gap. I don't see how it could be unreasonable to suggest that Chrysalis might change over the years. Particularly as she transitions from Princess to Queen (Which would indicate a loss of parents). But hey, there's me looking too far into this.
So ridiculously cute.
I will Strike at dawn. Or most likely just after 10.
Nice work! This was really cute and I loved the ending.
Hehehe
