Sometimes, running is a very efficient method not to run out of time. And Twilight certainly has every interest in making sure she doesn't run out of time, and therefore in doing things as efficiently as possible. She wouldn't want to be late, after all.

I had no idea what this was, but I think I liked it anyway. Thumbs Up!

She's stuck in a time loop...

Fascinating. Excellent work in conveying both the sheer number of repetitions and the breathless rush of each one. I suspect Discord has the right of it, but it will take many more tries for Twilight to accept that. Thank you for this.

No sort of comment on the author notes or anticipations they contain? I'm a little disappointed, I was hoping to see at least someone react to that.

I'm looking forward to future work and glad Equimorto is enjoying Fimfiction, but I don't have anything constructive to offer beyond that.

9739937 Pfft, all she has to do is waggle K9's tail before the next loop.

Her fault for not watching Tom Baker's 4th Doctor! He escaped one time loop and created another, deliberately!

So...what exactly was Twilight trying to do exactly that caused all that trouble for the others?

Man, I hate speedruns.
I enjoyed this, but I hate speedruns.

START PLATINUM, ZA WARL-!

if this fic isn't a jojoke im gonna be very disappointed in you young man

Not sure what I read, but I love the cosmic feeling in it. Kind of Lovecraftian, really, only without (literal) madness and nightmares, hahaha.

I'm taking my ride with destiny
Willing to play my part
Living with painful memories
Loving with all my heart

Made in heaven, made in heaven
It was all meant to be, yeah
Made in heaven, made in heaven
That's what they say
Can't you see
That's what everybody says to me
Can't you see
Oh I know, I know, I know that it's true
Yes it's really meant to be
Deep in my heart

I'm having to learn to pay the price
They're turning me upside down
Waiting for possibilities
Don't see too many around

Made in heaven, made in heaven
It's for all to see
Made in heaven, made in heaven
That's what everybody says
Everybody says to me
It was really meant to be
Oh can't you see
Yeah everybody, everybody says
Yes it was meant to be
Yeah yeah

When stormy weather comes around
It was made in heaven
When sunny skies break through behind the clouds
I wish it could last forever, yeah
Wish it could last forever, forever

Made in heaven
I'm playing my role in history
Looking to find my goal
Taking in all this misery
But giving it all my soul

Made in heaven, made in heaven
It was all meant to be
Made in heaven, made in heaven
That's what everybody says
Wait and see, it was really meant to be
So plain to see
Yeah, everybody, everybody, everybody tells me so
Yes it was plain to see, yes it was meant to be
Written in the stars
Written in the stars
Written in the stars

v-a-e-e-a-v-e

Great story! I don't understand, but its great.

This has a deeper meaning Im missing.

:/

Well this gave me massive groundhog day vibes at the end... It all makes sense. Sadly this also implies that she's been stuck in this one day for months. Possibly even longer. I worry for her mental health when she finally escapes the day.

I knew it was a loop just after a few paragraphs.
Such precision can only exist in infinite time spent on learning it all.

You bring up a good point. :ajsmug: I'll admit, I was very suspicious when Twilight distracted the first pony with his cart. But when in the Everfree, that definitely sealed the deal for me.

Wonderful story! :heart: It's amazing how well you captured your story into this ominous atmosphere. Ten out of ten stashes :moustache:

Made in Heaven! Time Accelerate!

Great fic, but I still wanna know what she's late for....

Twilight Sparkle: The Ultimate Speedrunner.

My only question is why she needs the heart and the elements for this.

Maybe shes just chasing a hopeless conclusion. She might think the heart and the elements have the power to free her.

She has no way of knowing if it will, yet, because she takes too long.

tfw you try and speedrun all of existence

TDR

hmmm the talk with discord slowed her down the most.

eyes of heaven when?

Actually I got the impression that Discord did a time-stop, which Twilight uses to actually catch her breath - once he his gone she instantly is back to her previous speed.

For the rest: I'm simply confused as hell - and as much as I like the writing, I simply LOATHE this kind of open-ended stories (where the reader is simply left wondering about the main plot and/or the ending) - or maybe I'm just to dumb to understand what is going on *sigh*

Reminded me of a speedrun. I suppose it is, in a way!

I was thinking it was a time loop story from the start, with how much numbers are important in it, but I'm still not sure what's happening/causing it.
It was extremely good and interesting, but the end really confuse me, I'm not sure what she's trying to do, though I felt like she tried to stop a death... Or worse, the talk with Discord seems to hint that's it not something that can be stopped... Maybe it's just that she's trying to stop The End.

Interesting story, I loved the ominous feel and the way you show how much times Twilight has been through this day. I still wanna know what she was late for though!

Hey guys, DeSinc here and we're just gonna do a reverse bunnyhop off this inclined plane, saving about 7 seconds as we clip through this wall and land in an inch of water, avoiding all fall damage

Alicorn Twilight tries to talk to Unicorn Twilight, but is for some reason invisible.

Also, if I had to guess, Twilight is trying to go back to being her old self, based on what happened as well as what Discord says.

Twilight why do you want to reset the world?

Some thoughts,

It seems that Twilight is trying to stop the End of sorts. Everything fades into the Void. I also think thats its fitting that Twilight and Disocrd are the only two that have ever tried to stop it. It's fitting. Where there is nothing and everything is exactly the same is in a sense Perfect Harmony and Perfect Chaos. So the Agents of these two Trying to stop it, would be futile.

There are exactly 6,666 words. I have no idea the signifigance of that but it could be attempting to contrast the Heaven title, but I dunno.

As far as the writing, it was amazing. I was immediatly hooked and kept on reading, searching for an awnser as I truly felt Twilight was racing asap. Discord's break felt like just that, a break. It slowed down allowing my to process what was going on before the speed ramped back up dramatically. It was amazing.

I feel like there's context I'm missing here, but I dig this.

Had a nice Groundhog Day feel to it. I can only think how many times has she done this, and how many more will it take. It seems the real wildcard is the time with Discord. I'll have to read it again to see if it has changed since the last reading.

What the fuck did I just read, and why was sit so amazing!?

I am very very confused

Will there eventually be an ending for twilight. Askin since I read diary of time looper, an these kinda stories always makes me wanna know if it'll have a good ending or at the very least a proper ending, ya know?
I understand if you don't think it'll have one. Great work though
