Crossed Quills


Writer, poor artist, and voracious reader.

A thousand years ago, a series of popular bodice-rippers were published by a mysterious writer who wrote under the nom de plume of 'Gibbous Eclaire'. Books in the series ended rather suddenly, and what exactly had happened became one of Equestria's many mysteries.

Meanwhile, in the modern day, a burnt-out Luna frets over palace paperwork, and looks fondly at a spare inkpot and a pair of crossed quills.

I might change the rating when I get back from work, then. Admittedly, the story got somewhat edited in the submission table, but it does sound like that would be a better fit for how it turned out.

I don't expect that this story in particular will have additional chapters. That said, it is in continuity with every other story on my profile, so if you like the characterizations, feel free to check any of them out!

Bottlecaps indeed!

I like the image of the Ponyville Wrecking Crew - they get the job done with a maximum of property damage.

I was about to say that Ponyville Wrecking Crew is such a great description. In this universe, they seem to be the equivalent of the Dirty Pair. You call them in only when the threat is so huge that them leveling the town is a comparatively small price to pay.
