Twilight crossed the private train car to me, jumping onto the seat next to me, “So… uhm… Page, Twi said you was from the human world?”
I nodded and closed my notebook, “’A’ human world anyway,” I agreed, “Not the one on the other side of the mirror. Close, but not quiet.”
“How did you end up here?”
“No clue,” I admitted with a sigh, “And to be honest? At this point I don’t think I would go back. I mean, hands are nice, but horn and the ability to fly? More than makes up for it. Never mind this is where my friends are now, where my Luna and…” I glanced across the cabin at Sunset where she was checking on Amber.
Twilight nodded and followed my look, “…I’m still not sure how Sunset Shimmer returned to Equestria, yet alone get in a relationship with this worlds version of me.”
“My fault,” I said with a grin, “Actually, thinking about it, I’m probably responsible for most of the changes. I’m fairly sure this timeline split from yours when I arrived in Equestria.”
Twilight slowly nodded, “Huh.”
“Yeah,” I said and stretched my wings as Sunset moved up, “How is she?”
“Annoyed she’s not allowed to move,” Sunset said with a smile and gave me a quick nuzzle before jumping onto the couch next to me, scooting close.
Smiling I nuzzled back and settled my wing over her back, “Good. And Twilight here was wondering how come you ended up back in Equestria.”
That got a small laugh from her, “Did you tell her?”
“Not yet.”
Now Twilight looked really curious, so Sunset smiled at her, “He went to the human world with Twi and forced me back through the portal by threatening to stab me.”
Twilight blinked at her and looked between us, “Uhm…”
I grinned, “Our relationship has improved since then. Sunny is my best friend and has been for quite a bit, the entire upgrade from that is rather recent.”
Sunset nodded, “Yeah. Kind of glad he brought me back to be honest, I was in a bad place mentally.”
Twilight frowned slightly and glanced down, “I see…”
“I got together with Twi well over a year ago,” Sunny then added and smiled, “We just kind of clicked. Do you have a special somepony back in your universe?”
Sighing softly, Twilight shook her head, “…Not really, no. I mean… I look but I haven’t gone on any dates or anything.”
Sunset nodded, “Oh? Anypony special you look at?” she asked as I started to look for a way to escape. Sadly, I was trapped between her and the couch. No way to make an easy escape and make it look natural.
Twilight blushed slightly, “Well… there is this one guard in the Crystal Empire. We kind of gave it a small try but we didn’t really click.”
“Anypony else?”
What is it with mares and gossip!? Sunset wasn’t even that much into this kind of thing!?
“I don’t know,” she said and shifted her wings a bit, “I… I do like spending time with Princess Luna.”
I couldn’t help but smile at that.
That Luna might not be my Luna, but if there was anypony else that I thought would be a good match with her it would be Twilight.
And Luna did deserve somepony to love her. Even if it wasn’t m…
I blinked and I felt my eyes go wide as I suddenly finally understood why she was so much for me and Sunset getting together. Because she thought I deserved to be loved.
I felt the same way about her. I wanted My Sky to be loved. She deserved to be loved, even if it wasn’t by me.
Even if I loved her, she deserved all the love.
Sure, it was still a stretch to think about her with another pony, but I was fairly sure that was just my human upbringing making angry monkey noises in the back of my head. I mean, I was perfectly fine with Sunset and Sparks after all.
But I finally got it.
“If you do decide that you want to pursue a relationship with Luna,” I told her with a smile, “I may have a couple of suggestions.”
Twilight nodded a bit, looking a bit shy all of a sudden, “I…I might.”
“Twilight!” Twi called out, “I think I know what this equation is!”
Twilight quickly jumped off the couch rushed over.
Sunset looked over at them, leaning against my side as she smiled, “You know, I’m kind of happy this happened. I think this may be the first time Twi met somepony that can actually keep up with her.”
I couldn’t help but laugh and not at that, “Well, you’re not wrong about that.”
Sparks was for one hundred percent sure the absolutely smartest being I ever met. Human, pony or otherwise.
“You know, they are missing the obvious though,” I then added and nuzzled at Sunsets mane.
“Hmh?” she asked and turned to look at me with a frown, “What do you mean?”
I raised an eyebrow at her, “Discord got her here, maybe he can get her back?”
Sunset blinked and me before she facehooved, “D’oh. You’re right.”
“Of course, I am,” I said with a grin before I shrugged, “Assuming we can find him and get him to do it. And that he actually can, maybe he just redirected the spell… which I can only assume is easier than doing the entire thing.”
She sighed, “Well, there is that. Let’s see if they can figure it out first before we try that option.”
“Yeah.”
Relying on him for anything was just asking for trouble. He kind was the one that caused this after all.
If he would even show up when called…
…Then again, he was most likely hiding out with Fluttershy anyway.
You know I'm expecting Twilight to Tease about Foals when she leaves.
Pages expression, priceless.
Great chapter as usual.
Just as a mention:
it should be were.
Sunlight ?
Probably

Clearly she's just speaking with an accent to differentiate herself from the local Twilight.
9218181
I guess that makes sense.
MORE SNUGGLES! I DEMAND MORE SNUGGLES!
Please continue. This story is fun.
So Discord brought this Twilight to Page to have him change her by saying things. Brain isn't working right now.
I'm a little confused about Luna's reasoning behind setting up Page and Sunset. I was running with the practice of a herd mentality up to this point.
9218612
It isn't that hard to get... Lunacorn KNOWS AND FEELS Page deserves all the luv... So she's going to encourage him to get everyone he wants, especially considering that their schedules are usually out of Sync...
I am thinking that the Lunacorn will keep consulting with the Princess of Food for the signs of Page wanting moar luvrs...
9218916
That makes sense. I don't think Page will go beyond moonbutt, twiggy and bacon hair tho.
9218934
Never underestimate the power, reach and tenacity of both the Lunacorn or / and the princess of food
I may not be a native speaker, but I'm quite sure that is supossed to be a were...
Somewhere in the Crystal Empire Cadence is squealing.

The whole "was" and "were" is one heck of a mess.
I am still unsure how to use them beyond 'were' for plural and 'was' for singular.
9219636
Yeah, it's the cover art.
It is so....so....
9219405
Was/were, usually a matter of the person and number of that which is referred to.
Singular third person; was
Singular first person ; was (I screw this one regularly)
Second person ; were (no matter the number)
Plural first/third person ; were.
When you need to not be a native English speaker, to have been drilled in the rules.
Just be careful with third person determined and undetermined amounts.
(depending on sentence structure undetermined may use 'was' just to be confusing)
You may need to grab your old English teacher for this one;
"everyone was wrong" or "everyone were wrong"
Using 'were' here implies that 'everyone' can be swapped with a certain 'they', while with 'was' everyone is an uncertain number (thus 'was', becouse 'everyone' in that case, could refer to any number of people between zero and infinity.)
And maybe everyone was a bad example here
It's more the subjunctive mood than the actual tenses. Though the tenses do enter into it.
Simple Past:
I was.
You were.
He was.
Subjunctive:
If I were a carpenter;
If you were a lady;
Would you marry me anyway?
Would you have my baby?
Basically it's one of those bits of English that's still more Germanic than Latinate.
9219405
I was also taught that you should use was for "I" and "he/she/it" and were for "you, we and they" when talking ib the past principle.
9219717
I'm gonna be brutally honest here; your grammar and word selection sucks. You seem to be having a bit of a problem with tenses and apostrophes, and I don't think I've seen more than two dozen commas throughout this entire installment.

Well, in Hiver's defense, English isn't his native language.
This is:
Sorry, Hiver. I couldn't resist
Finally caught up with the refresh and into the new stuff.
BTW, there is an obvious McGuffin that's available to sending CanonTwi & Spike back (besides Discord): This timeline's version of the Time Spell they were using.

You forgot to mention that 'OFF' has two effs.

To be fair... Screw the main timeline if you can have this one i guess ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I like how twilight is learning a little more about empathy in this world. She really needed to polish those skills so she didn't just have to be told someone is upset to care about their feelings.
This THIS RIGHT HERE DESCRIBES MY FEELINGS TO A T
One Twilight is awesome, two are Twilightlicious!
- Sunset Shimmer ~♡
Starlight Glimmer learning that she basically doomed the world to many versions of the end if all...
That should help this one become sane, or at least enough to stay away from time spells...
