Journey Entry Number… eh, let’s call this one Potato.
Sunny and Moony are away for the day over at Rainbow Falls, returning the following morning.. In other words, it was yet another rare time my sister and I had the castle to ourselves since their introduction.
And I loved every last second of it. In fact, today had been shockingly calm. No nobles showed up for the afternoon court complaint session, which is outright miraculous given they always have something to complain about. I’d almost call this dreamlike in a way, except Luna’s assured me this is not a dream.
That makes this the best day I’ve ever had in centuries. I’ve caught up on a few books left unfinished for a time, took a walk through the gardens without Philomena and Shadebeak squawking as Sunny chased them around to ‘help’ with their preening, made a batch of moon cookies without worry of any doughy eldritch abominations… truly, it’s a day so mundane anything abnormal would actually make it seem interesting. Frankly, in these final evening hours very little could make this day the worst day ever.
Knocking at the door? Curses, I think I spoke too soon. Who’s there?
Sunny? Goodness, you’re back so soon. I thought you planned on staying there overnight. Was Rainbow Falls really that uninteresting?
Well, I wouldn’t use “frustrating” to describe anything there other than the annual trading event, but if you’re really that peeved, you know where Brutus is. Just be careful with the reinforced wall--you put a dent in it yesterday, and I had it built to last for the rest of the month.
Uh, no. I’m not going to watch you hit the wall. We went over this at least a dozen times. I trust you to be able to hit a wall without adult supervision. Now if you’ll excuse me, I have an entry to finish since you’re back early--
...There’s a changeling on my desk, and it doesn’t smell like coffee. Sunny! Hit it with the big stick!
Ow! Not me, the changeling! This is not the time for roughhousing!
You’re still hitting me! I am not a changeling, that one is! Get serious and HIT THE CHANGE--
…

Journal Entry Number… wait, the numbers are vegetables? Oooookay, that’s weird, but whatever. I guess this entry is… Celery?
Ahem. I am Chitin, leader of the Canterlot Capture Team. The castle is ours, and rather swiftly conquered. Our intel about the princesses employing body doubles served us well--infiltration was such a breeze, nopony suspected a thing.
Although actually capturing the princesses proved to be a difficult task. Celestia took at least thirty blows to the noggin before Elytron finally managed to render her unconscious. Moving her body into a cocoon, even with magic, felt like lifting three wedding cakes at the same time.
Let it be said that taking down an alicorn princess is not easy when you aren’t a love-supercharged queen. She needed a full two minutes to catch her breath.
Midgut and Tarsus had a far easier time. Luna had been in the middle of channeling a spell, presumably whatever it is she casted to view dreams.
And lucky them, she weighed far less than her sister. They got a cakewalk while we dealt with a heavy, dense cake, I suppose.
As far as I know, the whole plan went off without a hitch. Tarsus and Elytron have already replaced the princesses, and we’re about to teleport the real ones over to the hive before sunrise.
...Wait, how ARE we going to handle the sunrise? I hope Chrysalis has a plan for that, otherwise this might not last as long as she thinks it will.
Oh well. If the body doubles come back, we should be able to handle them.
Theoretically, at least.

They won't be able to handle Sunny and Moony because those 2 are too unpredictable.
I assumed they'd snuck into the castle and put like a necklace of that magic nullifying stone around their necks and THEN KOed them when they woke up, but this works too.
Well this does explain who was dealing with the celestial mechanisms.
Well done Sunny and Moony, I'm proud of you.
Well, if she did have a plan, then it worked...wait, this could've been after they took out the Mane 6 and Spike. Hm...Perhaps she expected to obtain so much love that she could do it herself, or maybe the impostors would gain enough love to do it themselves? Yeah, it might get shaky at first, but no one batted an eye when Twilight did it, so...
7667885 Really, kidnapping Celestia and Luna has never been the hard part of any plan.
Maybe it's because they insist that they're Princesses. Everyone knows Princesses get kidnapped, so fate is not on their side.
"Sunny? Moony? Want to play....with the big glowy things?"
And so the path of the solar ember zipped in trails of flame spelling "Sunny was here, Moony is a chubby-plot." whilst the moon once more developed a face- making a raspberry at all below it.
Ahh, we're going to play an "Everything Wrong With" for the season finale, I see.
Yeah, it had a lot of plot holes. And I didn't even THINK about the most glaring one because I was more focused on "how did they manage it"...
Plotholes aside it was still an awesome season finale.
Bug stick?
Can't wait to see what you come up with for that.
So... is there really a changeling named "Ovipositor"?

I enjoyed the season finale. I really did. It had a lot going for it.
But holy damn did it leave so many questions unanswered, especially by the end after everything is 'resolved.'
Of course, I'll get to those questions in time. But for now, I'll just snack on some peanut butter crackers.
7668262 You do that. And I'll snack on Trixie.
That's funny as she just finished off her 4th!!

7668262 Chryssi can channel other energies other than love from her 'special' pods, She also breeds up a 'special' magic endowed ling' to handle celestial movements using this harvested energy. Hows that for Selley's NO MORE GAPS™?

I'd assume that's how the mighty 'H' would answer it!
7668161 Tia was brutally Brutus'ed!

7668069 Think more sinister Sunny and Moony.

Just in time for Nightmare Night.

7668262 Yeah, but how do you feel regarding the garrish, hideous elephant in the room?
Sunny and Moony are away? Well, it's a good thing they don't know about their real selves getting kidnapped by the changelings. I'm thinking that they'll return from the trip and would be like, "Hello, Celestia and Luna! How was it while we were away?" And the real princesses would be like, "You have no idea what happened."
Speaking of the season finale, I do agree about how there was one big question about how the princesses were captured. But when I think about it, the changelings have numbers and stealth while the princesses only have power. I think the changelings must've captured and replaced each of the characters one by one so that no one will notice. Chrysalis must've planned this whole invasion out for four seasons after being defeated in the season 2 finale. Too bad she got blasted by love twice in her defeats.
Overall, I really enjoyed the season 6 finale. I loved it just as much as the other season finales.
I figured Discord handled the celestial mechanics. After all, everyone would probably blame him if something went wrong.
In any case, this is certainly one explanation for how the changelings captured the diarchs. Though they may regret doing so...
7668281 Damnit Takei!!!
What the heck happened the last time Celestia tried making moon cookies? Did the moon Cthulhu just pop out and try to destroy her?
