Princess Luna has a problem. Her elder sister is nowhere to be found, and it's almost time to raise the sun! The clues in her room point to one obvious conclusion, but in her sister's absence, Luna must assume her duties. The night princess can think of but one pony perfect for the task of tracking down her sister: her most faithful student.
(I know some folks have been wanting a Celestia chapter of my fic 'A Pony Walks into a Bar', so think of this as kind of a spiritual successor to that hypothetical chapter.)
My goodness (or maybe it was a pun that only looked like a typo)
Unclear who is speaking here. Celestia nods, but then Luna speaks? If it's Luna, it could be appended onto the previous paragraph, which also had Luna speaking.
Also, vaguely funny. Needs 38% more hyperbole.
I've never actually heard someone hiccup while drunk
6949716
In my experience it only happens with high tannic acid ciders. Not even nitrogenated stouts cause it.
Boooo to the down voter !!! Great story.
6949716 ...uh, I do it sometimes
I am prone to hiccups anyway, but add some booze in there and the likelihood of it happening goes way up.
Well color me surprised he's a griffon. Either we never knew or I'm a scrub that doesn't pay attention to what I read.
Also, got a little lost halfway through after Twilight casted the sobriety spell. Luna just kinda slipped in there but I see now she did teleport in right around that time. If it were a snake it woulda bit me.
6949714 corrected the speaking confusion, thanks for reading!
The Bender? *thinks it over* OHhhhhhh now I get it! Fabulous story and futurama refrence. It was great
6950958 No, not a Futurama reference, I think. A bender is a term for an all-out drinking spree usually resulting in one waking up with little to no memory of the past several hours.
6951221 huh I see then. Thanks

Actually a bender can be from any drug. Just take Charlie Sheen for example.
[technically a "run" is the same as being on a "bender". Although bender does usually mean a wild drinking spree, rather than a wild drug spree.]
Remind me of another Celestial Hangover of sorts.
And I thought I had seen some mean drunks in my time.
I really want me some of that.
6950552 actually in the other story he's a unicorn. I actually forgot what he was when I was writing this lol
6950958 Actually, I think Bender's name is a reference to alcohol, not the other way around.
6955873 Okay that threw me for a pretty decent loop cause when I read the whole griffon thing I was like...
So that definitely makes heaps more sense.
Some parts seemed to move a bit fast, but it was a fun read nonetheless. Kudos! :)
6956253 ah OK thanks:)
is this
a reference to "the restaurant at the end of the universe"
Oh this needs a sequel with all three of them drunk with the rest if the Mane Six looking for them.
6959672 maybe...
6961462 i'll take that as a yes
That ending.
Hypocrite Luna is hypocrite. A really fun self-contained chapter though!
JUST A BIT!?! JUST A BIT!?! YOU ARE ON THE FUCKING MOON HOW IS THAT A BIT?!?!
Always wondered what the Royal Princesses were hiding from their past.
Now I know...
Great work!
Celestia grinned. "Remember the last time we drank together?"
Luna stifled a giggle as well. "Indeed, but the world would be far less interesting without Discord, would it not?."
Sooo, Discord was created out of their joint, drunken stupor ??
