o this looks to be good. I am still rereading the first story.

All of my feels have been hit.

I hate/love to say this, Z, but you should have done this from the beginning. That last arc was just plain weird.

7252807

Yep it was, thus why I'm doing this now, years later

To be honest I have no idea what I was thinking then, but it doesn't matter now. Here's to the sequel, yay!

Amazing, AMAZING.

Such a sweet ending! Yet, at one point, I was half-expecting it to go south... glad that it didn't though! Also, really glad to see you back!

This is so much better than your previous arc.

I am happy to read this!!!

Seems Chrysalis is drunk on this new feeling of hers and is terrified to lose it. She also seems to have picked up some of Richard's mannerisms and turns of phrase. I actually almost forgot the original plot when it was mentioned how Richard was saving Equestria from a population crisis. The two characters here seem perfect for each other with them being mutual outcasts too, so there is a good character dynamic going on there.

From what I can infer so far, I think your intention with Celestia is to make her jealous, and since you made her intentions vague enough during the first act it can still work. I like the direction of this much better than what you had planned before. Good stuff.

Ah!!!! at long last the sequel!!!!

Ouch. That description is a mess.

i love it already

I freakin love this story and I eagerly await all that is to come. seriously write at your own pace I'm just glad to see more but if you could TRY to make upload's as close to instantaneous as possible that would be great

So much for "I'm not writing anymore," eh?

Oh hey, you're not dead.

totally forgot this was a thing, i forgot you even planned a sequel! im looking forward to reading this in its entirety

Bro...the second act...it still happened. I'm so sorry. :(

I am looking forward to this though. Gon b gud.

So, is all that weird stuff with Richard being reincarnated as an alicorn son of Celestia and Luna getting pregnant and banished still going to happen, just differently, or are you going to go with something a little more down to earth and less nigh impossible to follow? :b

I'll check it later. I liked the first act, but that second and where the third was going....*shudders* that was a dark place. One I've been to, granted, but dark none-the-less.

Sorry, it's been long enough that we forgot the first arc. This was the story where Celestia kidnapped a dude to "save the species", right?
Keep going! ;)

More or less, yes. Celestia refused to find him a way home when he refused to save their race. So now he begrudgingly gives 'samples' every so often and in return is supplied with bits and a permit to own a house.

But as the summary here says, there may just be another reason why he's kept in Canterlot...

IT'S HEEEEEEEEEEEERE! I'll get to it the moment I can.
So excited though!

We have liftoff!
I repeat, we have a liftoff!

Must... Wait... Until completion.

yep this is defiantly going to be a good story to keep a vary close eye on.

Now THIS is more like it. Can't wait to see more.

This is so much better then that Act 2 garbage.

Oh thank goodness, that second act was traaaash~

Looking forward to seeing where this one will go

7253733 aw... hell now I'm thinking of that... just a blur of motion and rapid fire tapping as the drugged up humming bird frantically hits the up vote button, all wide eyed and screaming about flowers, nectar and thumbs...

Aww yeah, Act two did leave a bit of a bad taste, especially the ending.
I will be following this closely.

Good job.

Really liking how Chryssi comes across in this story. Prequel included.

Rustled jimmies have been un-rustled.

That reason being probably that she has a BIG crush/love/obsessiveness on Richard and want's him by any means necessary.

I just hope that you will not make Richard Celestia's son.

Hehe... I know what it feels like to be dipped into a wall. Or more accurately, the floor.

It hasn't even been a day and this story's been featured. GG.

7256455 everyone is celestias son. She's pony Jesus.

Well done

How long has it been since the original was written?

At first I was hesitant on reading this... But I'm getting over that, the story is just as enjoyable as the first.

D'awwww... All of them feels.

soooooooo does celestia still know about richard being her son or are we going a differnet path here?

7478160 on the last story after the chapter where chryssy revealed her true form there was a note saying these chapters are non cannon

>>Bro Belix Lunix
i am rather relived that ending was rather stupid 😫

um but I liked the second act? Can you at least say what you had in mind for that version?

But in the meantime, I really need to protect my dignity, TO THE BATHROOM!

I picture Batman saying this with me comenting "and out of the tights"

So the second act had the Clop...

Second act has the Clop...

Clop...

Sounds like what we need is a clop cannon. I think I read a fic like that once. It's about Pinkie rather than our lovely Queen, mind you, but you take what you can get.

This isn't fantasy, this isn't a book. Whatever irritation I felt fled as I felt utter contentment fill me up, his love so giving, so much filling me up alongside it. This is real, just Richie and I dancing to a silly training tape.

Yeah, rub it in our face why don't you?

Nice start of the sequel. I wonder how Celestia will react to her blackmail failing
