Before Twilight Sparkle was sent to Ponyville to oversee preparations for the Summer Sun Celebration, Ponyville housed another notable unicorn, a self-styled scientist with delusions of grandeur and a startling blase attitude towards trivialities such as collateral damage. It was with a largely collective sigh of relief when he abruptly vanished about a year prior to Twilight's arrival.
And now he's back.
Oh! I'm intrigued and I can't wait to read more
I'm getting a faintly Girl Genius vibe from Boffinspark. I can't possibly think why... Is he a real professor, or is that just his first name?
Oh, by the by:
I don't know - must scientists would naturally drive you to drink...
What's debatable? Discord changing, or the professor being bad?

Rarity was referring to the professor there.
Is this in the Guarded Emotions continuity? It'd be interesting to get Moonwhisper's thoughts.

Sort of. I don't plan on having Moonwhisper really show up in this series, at least for the time being, but at some point I may do a crossover between the two.

I'm sure he'd have something to say about Shining Armor's new security features in Canterlot Castle, too.
I doubt he's impressed...
