After coming to live in Ponyville and discovering the joy of having friends, Twilight found a new appreciation for Hearth's Warming and its story about companionship keeping the cold at bay. It would come as a surprise to her to learn that anypony could think she's forgotten the spirit of Hearth's Warming, but the new Princess of Friendship has a habit of sometimes missing details, even when they're right under her snout.
On Hearth's Warming Eve, Twilight is visited by three ghosts who take her on a journey across time to show her what she's almost missed.

I'm killing myself to be the third entry
I'm gonna read this, bats. You got my interest.
Aaaaand it begins!
can't wait to see the next chapter!
I like this version of a Christmas Carol. Looking forward to tomorrows chapter.
Dammit, just when it was getting good!
And here's the next contender!
Awesome!

Twilight, there are blind people in deepest reaches of the Amazon who could see what was going on with Applejack there
Luna's dream scene is hilarious
Luna is best Marley.
*squee*
Jesus, Twilight. There's oblivious and then there's aggressive antisocial tendencies.
What's the wench got to tell you? That she wants to take advantage of you romantically whilst standing beneath a sprig of a poisonous, fruit bearing bush?
Would that be both obvious and dorky enough to get through your skull?
bats plus Luna plus TwiJack plus Christmas?
Bring on the goodness!

Something wrong with this bitty here
Oh my this is going to be good. Twi's obliviousness is still adorable as ever.

I see nothing wrong with this statement. I guess it is missing ScootaBelle....and Scootalove....and Flutterknife....and the random killing of a mudpony.
3604458
Well, in the context of this particular story there's a slight error there. If you take "bats plus Luna plus TwiDash" out of context and have it just as it is then there's nothing wrong there.
And yes, it is missing the ScootaBelle, Scootalove, Flutterknife, and random killing of a mudpony that would make it truly complete.
I feel like this is gonna be a bit contrived, but I also feel like I don't care :D
*bells ring wildly*
ALL ABOARD THE CHRISTMAS HYPE TRAIN
sweet! a twijack story based on an old christmas story!
wow, it's moments like this that just make me want to Gibs Smack twilight.
You're doing very well, how mixed the traditional Christmas Carol with this. I'm impressed.
Damn you, bats, damn you! I wanna read moooarr and I can't wait!

fak...
3606995 You do know there's straight ships and a Rule 63 group if you don't like gay ships? I mean, it's your choice if you don't like homosexuality and don't want to read fics involving it. But I don't understand why you'd start reading a fic and pretend one of the characters was male. I'm a gay dude, and I'm still fine reading a love story between two women, I don't feel the need to pretend one, or both, of them are the opposite gender.
3606995 GOD I hope you're just a troll.

I think their point was (well, at least mine is), why did you feel the need to point out that you don't like homosexuality and are reading the fic pretending that Applejack is a male if you like the story enough to follow along anyways? What's the point of stating you follow the Bible if you're reading this anyways?
It just seems like you're saying that to get attention, which you just got from all the people that don't give two shits that this features lesbian ponies.
3607280 I never said that you didn't like the story, I just find your logic confusing. I don't get why you would even start reading a gay fic in the first place if you don't like homosexuality, and don't want to read about it. Other than to bitch about the fact that it is a gay fic, of course.
3606995 lets not.
Ah,,, Twilight you dumb twit.

I'm Christian too bro, but there's no reason to bring this up here. Jesus taught that those things should be that way, but never taught that you have an obligation to tell others how they should live.
I've been in Twi's position before not seeing something that's right in front of me but like the Spirit said, she's not looking for it. How can you see what your not looking for? With people like Twilight you can't be subtle otherwise they won't get what's happening.
bats did you just XD
I can't believe I ever doubted you! Silly me, thinking that you were gonna rehash the normal story in ponies. Especially since we all already knew this is TwiJack...
Also, I'm loving how utterly passive-aggressive this form of communication is XD
*CHRISTMAS HYPE TRAIN TOOTS ITS HORN*
This is why I never promise anything and never bet.
This is off to a really fun start... the melding of Dickens and Pony works far better than I could have imagined!
Okay, I really want wing snaps to be a thing now
Oh, Twilight.
Can't wait for more, bats.
So much love for this right now...
Only one glitch that I saw:
The idiom should be "Applejack was nothing if not dependable."
3613860
Hate that idiom.
Fixed now.
Give the mare a cookie, she figured it out. Let's see how our resident princess tackles this.
Very nice. I was worried for a second there you were going to cram two ghosts into the chapter. Thank goodness.

Come forth, and know me better Mare!!
Beautifully sad chapter, I'm getting teary-eyed now
did twilight just completely derail (when she went to see aj) the plot of the story through sheer force of will or am i forgetting something
"....and how do I tell her that I don't swing that way and that I only like stallions?"
DUN DUN DUNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!
Sweet Celestia, finally she get's it! I almost thought that she won't realised until she wake up the next morning!!!
