ohh Nice whats the article about

Trying to mine one of Lovecraft's lesson known stories for Cthulhu gaming ideas.
To paraphrase an appropriate quote: "Anyone powerful enough to give you everything you want, is powerful enough to take away everything that you have." - Unknown
Also, it seems that Majesty's weakness is that she can make any wish she wants, but only once each.
Yiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiikes.........
Moondancer.....
This was absolutely beautiful! I loved every bit of this!
"Heck, what's another closed causality loop in time among friends?"
And the best line of the year award goes to...
Very enjoyable little story! Thank you!
Wonderful. I love you forever.
Is this in the same continuity as your other Whooves fics, and do I need to read those first?
lol someone has invisible fairy godparents
“Are you sure you’re up time travel today?
needs a "to"
otherwise, it was fantastic.
That was...a... Fantastic story.
Very nicely done!
Though, poor Moondancer...

It's totally stand-alone. Fans of the Three Whooves will find it perfectly fits within the life story of Ditzy and the Doctor, but no prior knowledge is necessary to read it.
Although, I think there's a nod to this story I might make in the upcoming "Doctor Whooves and the Mare in the Moon"...
3454876>>3459979>>3454876 Yeah, I decided to give the blogger Lady Moondancer a tribute the way Samuel L. Jackson likes his cameo roles to go.

Hold on to your butts...

Thanks! Tell me how you like Three Whooves, by the way.
Not the right Doctor but I think it might fit ponyland anyway.
Nice to see your Pony version of Leela, Pepermint knives for Janus thorns? Did she end up marrying another Time charger?
Another truly wonderful story. Thank you for all your great work!
P.S. - Do I detect a small reference to "Progress" at the end there?
3454857 I think that was Thomas Jefferson, but then the thread descended into "don't believe everything you read on the internet."
I picked that "one time each" thing up too. Poor Majesty. BBC needs to adopt this for a whole episode. Keep the names the same, just make them humans.
Why does this have so few views? Absolutely disgusting(even worse than my spelling thanks to spellcheck), where can we spam this so it get the attention it deserves?
As entertaining as this was to read, it threw me off that you had Majesty cast spells by making a wish.
Twilight (G1 Twilight that is) was the one that casted spells by making a wish.
Majesty would cast spells by saying a rhyme.
I'd kind of like a link to the relevant RPG.net posts, that sounds interesting.
Also, damn, this got pretty dark.
Ekndfljnflf. You have no idea how long I have been failing to have enough time to read this. I can't even remember how long it's been at this point. What kind of idiot place priorities on how he spends his free time that blatantly conflict with what he wants to do? This idiot, that's who. Does it even count as free time then? But at long last, I have found my way here. So let's get reading.
Bah, it's the third dimension that's the tricky one. The fourth dimension is far easier.
Oh, Tennant. I've missed you. Smith and Capaldi are fine, but they're just not the same.
Silly Ditzy. Any manestyle looks good on you.
Well, unless you comb your forelock over your eye. If you must hide one of your eyes, do it with an eyepatch so you look like a pirate.
Strictly speaking, you're precisely where Sexy wants you two. Sometimes she takes suggestions, but it's important to remember who's the real pilot here.
Oh man, it has been so long since I've said anything crude about tails. It was almost worth the months of never quite finding the time to read fanfiction just for this feeling of coming home.
Although my normal lines don't actually fit here. But I will not let such trivialities ruin my return!
Well if you're going to give a pretty young mare all of time and space, I should hope you take the time to appreciate your work.
Frankly, I don't trust anypony who is having a tea party. It's like whistling; sometimes it's just what it seems, but overall it's suspiciously innocuous.
I'd tell you, "If you eat the food, you'll be trapped forever," but it's already too late.
"Mostly about your muffins, though. In fact, forget about the history and culture."
You're scaring the poor mare, Ditzy. You just come charging in out of nowhere and crash their tea party; don't you ever think about what the Cultural Ministry will do to them for interacting with outsiders? If they're lucky they'll be put to death.
The Doctor is often scared. He's seen the universe, so he tends to know exactly how scared to be.
Oh, and any chance I could hear that song once it's done?
More than you even know.
Well, it would hardly be worth being so scared about if you could simply leave.
Silly little pony. He's no mere wizard. He's the last of the Time Chargers. He's the Oncoming Storm. Wizards run when a good stallion goes to war, and he is a good stallion. Pray he does not go to war.
Image is important. Titles don't matter, but appearances do.
'Tis better to have lived and lost than never to have lived at all.
Oh dear. This is serious.
So much for remembering Queen Megan in a positive light. Forgive me for my weak grasp of pre-Equestrian history, but weren't humans only able to come to Dream Valley if specifically brought? Bringing destruction upon them seems unwarranted under the circumstances.
I can see why Ditzy is such a keeper. Ponies who don't know how to speak their minds are so very boring.
It would be rather odd if he weren't making demands. No respect for authority, that Time Charger.
That's very big of you to admit you don't know.
That says rather a lot about you, wouldn't you say? You probably enjoy random acts of cruelty. You may well prefer to make them occur based on the actions of the victim, though it is well within your power to make them happen as pure diving intervention (so to speak). You're not afraid of uncontrolled fire.
I don't know, it sounds like a pretty nice nickname in general to me. It's just inconvenient in a few cases. I'd still call it a net positive.
What would it take to pry that story out of you, Doctor? Did you end up dropping her off in some less-totalitarian locale of her choice, or were you forced to leave her behind?
I've read that fanfic in more than one place.
Everypony dies sooner or later (with a few exceptions). For a time traveler, from a certain point of view, everypony is dead far away and long ago. The best you can ask for is that it be in a place of her own choosing.
I wouldn't worry about him so long as Majesty is intent on torturing him. When you get to be his age, one thing you find is that you have always been through worse before. Her imagination will run out before she comes up with anything new.
Really, Majesty? Mixing euphemism levels just makes you sound amateurish, like you wanted to hide the destination but weren't clever enough to fool so much as a lobotomized diamond dog. Sure, something like "take him to the Happiness Room" would not have hidden the context at all, but at least it doesn't come off so half-plotted. Yes, something like "take him to the Holding Cells of Despair" can sometimes come off like you're insecure and trying too hard to be intimidating, but even if that does happen it's still better than the alternative.
Come on, Ditzster, don't blame the slaves for what they have to do. It's questionable whether anypony or anything in this Luna-forsaken valley can truly be said to act on its own will rather than Majesty's.
I would totally sign up if you offered a guided tour of the universe's dungeons.
That doesn't presage a good future for Moondancer. In fact, it doesn't look very positive for anypony. Unless Majesty changed quite drastically (which is not impossible, were she tricked into making the right wish) the fact that nopony recorded her reign of terror implies that none of her subjects outlived her to write it.
The sense I get is not "one day she'll try bringing back those who die of other causes." The sense I get is "one day, Majesty will stop being afraid to kill ponies just because they're useful to her alive."
She doesn't seem like a subject Majesty would much like. I wonder if Majesty's opinion on the whole thing would be anything other than "good riddance" if not for her desire to pin more charges on the Doctor?
He's well before my time, but even I know 4 when I see him. Tom Baker is undeniably a classic. Not that I know much about what sort of Doctor 4 was.
Well of course. How does one say no to a pitch like that?
So basically what you're saying is that you're like an angel. An angel who sometimes takes requests (and then usually lands somewhen completely different).
Well that's going to be a weighty question, in total. Just don't let anypony catch you answering.
Wow, that sounds so . . . non-coerced. I guess being a spoiled child was something Majesty grew into, rather than how she was born. And I suppose we'll know why by the time we're done with the unofficial Galaxy story.
I don't think it's going to be a feel-good story.
Color me impressed. It's so rare for despots to find good actors, especially in a place like Dream Valley, which seems to be relatively small.
This is not where I thought we were. Do you have a map? Apparently, I'm lost.
Ugh. I hate villains who think they're so clever. Nopony appreciates your punishments but you.
And I'm not sorry! You deserve to be punished too!
And I thought you knew the Doctor.
I'd like to see, yes. I've still got plenty to learn from how you treat your enemies. And now's your chance to prove that you're not all bad. Aren't you excited?
Poor S'ngac. Another innocent victim of somepony who's clearly never seen an illusion before.
Funny word, that. Everyone throws it around like it's an objective measure, but what does it even mean? Often you make decisions about who lives and who dies, usually for reasons that are difficult for others to understand. Does that make you a monster? You've spent much of your life trying to improve the universe wherever you go. Does that make you not a monster?
Every terrible ruler has a huge ego. If they could just let something like "You've failed" go, they wouldn't be nearly so bad.
No repeats?
I pray that I never meet your mother.
Well, at least you realize that you can't.
Poison joke? I can't imagine why she would have left poison joke behind.
So difficult to tell when he's teasing you, and when he's just being a silly forgetful old stallion.
Did you think Majesty would leave them without another leader or two to protect them? Even once they remember how to deal with a spooky cloud, there will always be the occasional problem that merits the big guns.
What did they call Mooncatcher before he caught the moon? Was he enough of a badflank to go by simply "The Hunter"?
If you want to give the short version, yeah. But that hardly does the story justice.
My one pet peeve with this story is that Majesty in the official comic, casted spells by saying a rhyme.
The one the casted spells by saying a wish was Twilight (the original Twilight, not G4 Twilight)
This story is INCREDIBLE!
Ach! My two greatest literary weaknesses: backstory and deep lore!
Loved it
