It seems as if Twilight Sparkle knows all there is about the night sky. During a fateful astronomy exam, however, she learns that sometimes the most amazing things to learn come from her teachers, and not from a star chart.

This is a little tribute to 3 of my favorite Ponies and to all the team of MLP:FIM, those guys totally rule.

Nice to see this here, now to down load the EPUB file. :twilightsmile:

I remember this! Old but good.

It was she who had asked Princess Celestia to allow her to add the signature to her classes.
While I find everything else quite readable, I've got no idea what this sentence is supposed to mean. If I replace 'signature' with 'subject', it makes a lot more sense to me.

Aha! I thought I recognized this--it was one of the first fics I read after joining the herd. Good memories.:twilightsmile:

Thanks for liking and remembering my story guys. :twilightsmile:

I see your point, It will be changed right away. Thank you.

It is an absolute travesty that this fic hasn't gotten more attention.
I love your portrayl of Luna, in my headcannon it was as you showed, she was just trying to stand up for herself.
Great stuff mate.

In the beginning (when Sky Gazer wonders if she is a metaphorical "manual"), you changed his name to Star Gazer. You might want to fix that! :twilightsmile:

Anyways, keep up the good work! :raritywink::heart::pinkiehappy:

1196653 How did I miss that for so long?:twilightoops: Fixed. Thank you very much.:heart:

haha, No problem! :twilightsmile:

Your story is a masterpiece. It was beautiful. Beautiful as the perfect night sky you were writing about. I absolutely loved it. I doubt it could have been done better. And you an only guess where this is going. :twilightsmile:

It was time I took another look at this. Such a nice reminder as to way I enjoy your writing. Of course I can't forget to give PhilomenaSage her credit too. Thank you to the both of you for writing such a wonderful little story. :twilightsmile:

PPS

The earth pony got into the tower, put the flaming black telescope back in its case, and went out the tower’s room, leaving the unicorn and alicorn alone.

Was the telescope on fire the whole time? That is a weird mental image.

I really enjoyed this story. Celestia needs far more love, and this was a nice change from all the Trollestia stuff. :twilightsmile:

This was an interesting piece. I really like the idea of it and the insight it gives into the people involved. I was a little lost at the beginning when you started hopping between Twilight and Sky Watcher's points of view. But once Celestia showed up you cleaned things up nicely.

One question though, Sky watcher hasn't seen a "real" sky either has he? Does he just have the artistic touch or I mean how does he know what good is?

2680600 Thanks for your opinions and I'm glad you like it. :twilightsmile:

No, Sky Gazer has never seen a real night sky, but he and Celestia have been friends for years, and even though he doesn't know the full story, he does know she didn't create the night sky originally. Also, being an artist, he has always given his advise to Celestia, and has seen her "create" more beautiful skies than the one from that night.

This story has officially been deemed an Opal by The Gem Hunters.

This story is quite good, but Celestia at times felt a little bit out of character in the flashback. I know she's tired, and stressed, but she's still a bit too aggressive.

4019307 Oh! How Nice! Thanks. :twilightsmile: Glad you liked It.

Indeed my Celestia from the past can be very mean, and this is not the meanest she gets to be in my head canon. I just imagine Celestia with a very different character a thousand and something years ago. She was a lot more flawed, easier to crash under the stress and intransigent. Overall, not a very good ruler yet.

I reviewed your fic tonight find it here
