It has been a terrible week, in Craig’s very educational opinion. Firstly, he woke up in a cave covered in dust, and he doesn’t really like dust. Secondly, he can’t remember when Equestrian became so advanced. So many cities! Thirdly, the lands are so different, he can barely tell his way around. Fourthly, critters from every forest he’s wandered keep jumping him. Fifthly, nearly everypony that sees him either faint, stare, or just run away screaming; it’s actually kind of amusing. It’s like they’ve never seen an Alicorn before, or is there something on his face? Let him just... Sixthly, everypony he’s been able to eavesdrop on seems like they speak Ponish but... don’t? Seventhly, why are Marks called ‘Cutie Marks’ now? When did this happen? When he gets back to his throne, he will fix this insulting problem. No pride is involved or anything...
Lastly, and the worst, his own daughters don’t even remember him! This is something he must repair. “How?” you ask? Why, snuggling of course!

Art by Mornings Dew (ヾ(´・ω・`) I kinda just created my own ‘Pony Craig’ as a doodle born from this idea or scenario that has been at the back of my head for quite some time. Kinda saddens me that there aren’t many fan made things with Pony Craig and Lauren together, or Craig at all. So, ta~da! :}
My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic belongs to Lauren Faust and Hasbro respectively!

Goodness! Thank you guys so much for the support! Love you all!
I had this neat idea that I am certain others had that I want to share! Basically, as you can already tell, Craig McCracken in Equestria, but a very confused version of him and with a story to tell. I really love this old man and the shows he has made, along with the cast for each show, but I guess I’m being biased, since most of his creations were most of my childhood. I feel I at least know or predict him enough to be comfortable with dialogue and personality traits in this Pony character I’ve imagined. Most of the time, he is confused but with purpose; I feel it's the cutest side of him. I can say with certainty that it will not be perfect, nothing is, and I will not hit the right notes most of the time, but I have you guys here! Feel free to add constructive criticism, I’ll appreciate every last bit! If you can’t, that’s alright, just reading my crazy stuff is more than enough. Thank you!
My ‘Old Ponish’ isn’t the best, but I hope you enjoy! Oh, and remember, just because the show has ended, doesn’t mean its “ended”. The fandom will live for a very long time.

9932738
Why, thank you!
going to guess that luna's and celeistia's mom was his daugther
9987250
Interesting?
9987259
well luna has no clue and I think it be funny and sad he think those two are his kid only find out they his grandkids,
mostly cuase I can see it like this
craig "so how did your mother die anyway"
"died of the plague 1020 years ago after birthing luna"
craig "and my other daughter?"
"also the plague week before"
craig "wait they were alicorns we don't get sick"
"um magical plague??"
9987268
Yes, that would certainly be rather sad
9987272
that or other daughter died but had mortal blood line that ends with twilight,
or daughter happen to be nightmare and the changeling queen.
...hmm, looks interesting...
I didn't know Craig McCracken had anything to do with the creation of Friendship is Magic.
Thank you for this.
9987250
Did you even read properly? is everything ok with you?
9987904
9987665
Don’t thank me
9987399
He certainly did! Craig is the husband of Lauren Faust, the creator of MLP. He helped name Canterlot ’Canterlot’ and Cloudsdale ’Cloudsdale’, as well multiple other little details that Lauren added.
9988089
Well I did. What you going to do about?

9988088

9987904
yess i just like to think of twist
This is really good so far, and I can't wait to read more of it.
9988092
That's very cool! Nice detail!
Loving the story so far. I can't wait to read more!
Another good chapter, look forward to the reunion of father and daughters
10144497
Many thanks
Mmmm... is there any reason why the Princesses' mother didn't tell them about their father?
10144572
We’ll get to that soon, don’t you worry.
”Know thy place, mortal!”
Like the story, wouldn't review if I didn't.
OBTW, look up "ring vs. rang vs rung".
10144613
Thanks
Okay, so I see that you're trying to go for the Shakespearean lingo. That's cool. Let's give you a crash course on the various forms of "thou" that you're not using.
"Thee"/you - Used when doing something to the subject. "I shalt smite thee!"
"Thy"/your - Used in regards of possession. "Take thy leave and return anon!"
"Thine"/yours - more difficult. Used in regards to possessions, or in place of "thy" when it's in front of a vowel. "His spirit will take courage from thine."
English is fiddly.
10144758
Oh! I am so fully aware! Thank you, though. I have to put more thought into the speech and not write at one in the morning.
Ooooh, cant wait for the reunion.
Thanks for the update!
If Luna pop up in Craig's dream, it would be amusing.
10158223
It would certainly be surprising.
This is wonderful so far. The forgotten memory sound like he went through trauma and is suppressing it for the daydreaming nightmare scene. As for the princess to forget their own father? Might be from a massive spell Or spell backlash that expunged his mentioning and memory from everyone but his wife.
10158348
Woah. Intense.

10159512
OOF
10159512
He has no idea
10188796
Well I'm sure this'll be amusing when I get reading it..
The can only be princesses eh?
