Bat bony?
I think you mean 'bat pony' here, either that or your autocorrect really screwed the pooch in telling us this entire story was about ponies, instead of bonies.

...wow. I just... wow. I'll fix that
Interesting
Fun chapter, as always. But my one big take away from this chapter is the question of who the hell lets novice mages young enough to still be called children move the sun and moon? While seemingly unsupervised, no less. I barely trust anyone under the age 25 with anything more important than fetching me a glass of water, much less with something as important as maintaining the solar cycle.
Artemis vs Discord
Can't wait for that to happen!

Well, the idea is that, while novices in terms of being entrusted with the sun and moon, they've basically been trained by the previous generation of keepers to take over since early childhood. At least, that's how I figured it'd work. But I definitely see your point.
So, Celestia has the Mantle of the Sun-
"I am the DAY!"
-Luna has the Mantle of the Moon-
"I am the NIGHT!"
-Twilight is going to get the Mantle of Books-
"I get ALL the books, yay!"
-and Cadance has the Mantle of Pink-
"Hey!"
-so that leaves Artemis with the Mantle of... ummm... Goth?
"I am not that emo! Am I? Yeah, I'm not! Take that back!"
Nope. It's been said. Can't take it back.
Incoherent, impotent raging.
the buildup of artemis' harem begins!
Woooooo! New chapter!!!
ArtTwi in full swing! Yes!!!!
Love these updates! Always make my day!!
You ar so amazing!!!! Ahhhhh!!!!!
We wub yew!!!!
There is an opportunity here, Artemis, so don't miss it.
This story's Celestia is entirely too smug and self-satisfied. She, Luna, and to a lesser degree Cadence enjoy scheming and smirking while others squirm at the results.
Get on the ball, Art, and dose those ladies with a hearty helping of their own medicine.
This is a great read; glad to see it continued and I do hope Artemis will go see the old army squad to talk about being so twitchy.
Seems Candy is noticing Arty and Twi's chemistry. Good on you, girl. I knew you were observant.
Romance is crack, to me; you see.
Artemis is going to get the Mantel of Storms, isn't he.
A lovely little update, and heh. He tried to dodge it, but alas, he tried.
Nice. The memory thing is a bit confusing for me. I think last chapter hinted towards Artie being an alternate universe version of the princesses' brother, I guess. If that were true (instead of being a reincarnation), wouldn't he have no way for the memories to show up as they never happened to him? Unless it goes back to what the elements did.
"How am I in charge of the Night Court? Putting me in charge of that without my knowledge would take some kind of political gen-CELESTIAAAAAAAAAAAA!"
8270318
Top three herd mates. GO!
Read the first part of this listening to the opening of Westworld. Surprisingly fitting.
School starts early for young ponies.
And other decrees that might annoy Celestia.
Later that night, Twilight thinks back on this moment and gets a little hot under the metaphorical collar.
Then she thinks about wearing a collar and it gets hotter.
And going into the territory of "too much".
8270213
Looks like you can blame me for that too.
I despise smug people, and I hate being manipulated. If I was ever in a position like Artemis is in with the night court I would smile and agree to go, then hide somewhere until it was over just to annoy the person telling me to. Not sure if he would be able to get away with doing that though. Magic and all that.
8270703
I kinda of would like him to make some silly strange decree that would cause celestia to briefly replicate munch's painting "the scream"
8270523
So his cutiemark is an alicorn, leaping in the air like a toon, electrocuted by a lightning bolt?
I can't wait to see how he handles Night Court; tired, not enough sleep, cranky, and almost no filter on his mouth... He's gonna make Discord proud! If he wasn't a garden decoration right now, he'd getting a little teary-eyed right now.
p.s. Arty should go visit Manehatten, I'm sure the rude ponies will make him feel almost human again.
Well, this was a rather average chapter not much highlights in it and there didn't seem to have much in a way of focus on the chapter or plot development, except for what I thing is more set up for following chapters. I am curious to know how Artemis can manage to read so fluently Equestrian when he was complaining of how bad he was for him less then a month and now can read technical legal jargon? For the part that him mane and tail permanently staying white, well, I was really hoping that their would be more play on the twin theme between Artemis and Luna especially with how they kelped sharing many similar habit with one an other. But I guess that I will have to move on from that. I was more hopping that there would be more interaction between Luna and him and maybe, learn to bond with each other by making pranks on Celestia with as payback on her and put more focus on the recovery with humor. I think Artemis might be recovering a little too quickly on some aspects.
Noooooo, why did the cliff hanger have to be before court
8271082
Because I'm a heartless bastard
8271111
I hope your favourite writer get writers block for two months for I'm vindictive
8271150
Well, I'm glad I'm your favorite author, but I really don't have one of those myself. At least not that I'm aware of.
8271157
Sorry to disappoint, but you're only in the top 5. Arctik fox takes the top spot
8271173
Ouch! I've been struck a deadly blow to the ego
I'm hoping he isn't some reincarnation of the brother and just has some memories from when he was merged with Luna. Otherwise in excited for more.
Lol i love it. Made my day so much better. Thank you, i really needed something and this was it, will be waiting on the next chapter
😓😶😓😶😓
8270216 YOU, Bat bony, yes, YOU, you bony with bat wings, no, you are not pony, you are BAT BONY, DO YOU UNDERSTAND!?!?!?!
ME? I!!AM!!!HEAVY!!!!!!!
8271111
*suppresses snort*
I wonder why he's getting the real Artemis' memories. Must be from his merging with Nightmare Moon. I can't wait for him to tell Luna about those 'dreams' though.
Also, I sure do hope this does not turn into another generic harem fic as some here are hoping. There's already plenty of that in this site. This story is already strong enough to stand on its own even with romance.

He just woke up guys, give him a break
Fucking brilliant my good sir, this is my vice, and god be damned I want more.
I wished he kept some of his human aspects. Like being more cautious behavior towards suspicious ponies, more anger towards being manipulated (granted he does get angry but gets over it quite easily) and when he was talking to twilight he was really sweet and soothing i just would have liked him a little more blunt and a little less caring (but not heartless) he just seems to be maturing really quickly but maybe that's just because I've forgotten whats happened in the previous chapters . This is my opinion ya don't have to take it to heart.
8270944 I bet he will at one point tell one of the ponies asking him something to be sent to the dungeons for no reason other then being tired as all hell. "Fifteen years dungeon."
8270845
That's hardly can be called "manipulation". She just gave order to him and run away giggling before he could voice any objections.
Welp, it's official. The Elements are either utter morons or a really dumb Smart A.I.
"Oh, we totally fucked over a complete innocent by imprisoning him and a sadistic genocidal psychopath on the moon in the same body for a thousand years? Make it right by sticking him in the body of, and/or mind-raping him and implanting the memories of, that psychopath's apparently long-dead brother! All better now, right? Right?"
Also.
God fucking damnit Celestia. You literally just apologized to him. Don't instantly manipulate and antagonize him. We literally watched what progress you had made fall apart this chapter. I'm entirely sure at this point she is either: a) a sociopath. b) exactly as much a manipulator as Artemis thinks. c) socially incompetent d) just oblivious (no wonder Luna went NMM if this is what she had to deal with.) Same goes with Shining. Stop bloody using people and talk to them! Maybe they say no or disagree but that's their goddamn right as sapient beings!
I like the theory that when the main character was human, he was an alternate version of the pony Artemis, kind of like all the EQG humans are alternates of Equestria's ponies.
I like that theory because the alternative is that everything about the main character is being erased to pave the way for the reincarnation of some ancient background pony.
8271178
Vindictive, remember
8272110
The story is also giving me that reincarnation vibe with all the hints and "old" memories popping up. It's been done before you know, ever hear of the story "Five Score, Divided By Four"? Check it out and the offshoots. https://www.fimfiction.net/stories?q=five+score
Well if you really want Celestia to have a "Scream" moment have Artemis outlaw the making and consumption of any and all cake and cake products. Or at least let her think he did. She'll be the getting trolled.
NNNNOOOOOOO I caught up and my reading binge is over!!!!
... good story though
Twilight....Artemis.....NopeNopeNopeNopeNopeNopeNopeNopeNopeNopeNopeNopeNope
I know how ya feel my main pon! I absotivly posolutly hate polotics.....
The old guy at the gardens... Didn't Chrysalis didn't like hummed a tune? And he hummed it too... eather she or a changeling who leaened it from her...
THEME to Artemis VS Tirek.
Artemis is told about the giving up plan by Celestia and Luna. Refuses chooses to face Tirek alone but is then joined by the Pegasus guard. The clouds roll in. The fighting is intense lightning rain, Magic, fire. Finally Artemis stands alone against the tyrant and in the end freezes him in place.
End song.

Bat pony?
I think you mean 'bat brony' here, either that or your autocorrect really screwed the pooch in telling us this entire story was about bronies, instead of ponies.
This would be a perfect opportunity for Artemis to get back at Celestia if he took the book with him and held it up to read it where everyone could see while holding Night Court. ♪♫
8274238
Oh no, it was bonies, no "r" in there you see.
Now just imagine this story being about undead, skeletal horses.
