Update... The weekend is saved ♡
Goddammt, Trollestia strikes again.
On a side note, Honor training to be an assassin is not something I expected, but now it is something I need.

Perfect opportunity for some juicy puns missed
Time to visit the poor stud to help him re~lax~♡
Not asking Luna why her batponys run amok? Damn...
Im impressed or dissapointed... Dont know yet
Hmmm... Juicy ideas increasing in intensity ♡
Funny... Never think before to use Batwings as heatsinks . . .
I learned martial arts. EB spirituel development and viewing of learning reminds me of my combat training. Mind over matter...
You dont need to be a monk to pull amazing feets out of your body
( fair warning: ones you learn to override your muscle limits your body can suffer unexpected deteriation. )
Remember the wooden punching exercise in movies!?
From personal experiences i can tell you that, if your bones and joints are not up to the task... Yes you punch trough the rock plate, no you dont avoid the hospital and the nurse facepalm how i heroicaly broke my own hand vs a rock plate in a competition
In fairness, it is his fault. He asked to learn to fight, not for a strategic brainstorming session.
OMG Artemis, why are you so adorkable?
Anon isnt a pony ~♡
I love loopholes...
Assassin training actually might not help you get a stallion.

Unless she's recently talked with Carmen or Ebonshield I don't think Luna knows about the latest situation in the Rookery, since Anon hasn't given her a report on the subject and she must be busy with ruling Equestria stuff.
Wait...everything is written in 3rd person, but the way this reads..... who is telling this story?
10699668
This is one of the bits that translated awkwardly from Second to Third person. Its a PoV story from the perspectives of each chapter's respective characters.
I have a mighty need.
Woah now, does she kiss her mother with that mouth?
Honor resilience AND EB skills? I would be...scared of the results.
Yes! Honour past-history time!...and now we know why she stands as 'it's nothing amazing' with her skills up to now, poor mare, I really hope things get better for her from now on.
*Me thinking while reading:
SURE! Let's bring who we know to "see the quality" of the photos, HEY ANON, CHECK THIS ONE!
*continue reading, ANON appears on quo
Well then, let's put ANOTHER event here...nothing to WORRY ABOUT
As for the 'every-third-day schedule', no problem Bobbles, everyone understands the reasons.
10699672
First person not second person you mean?
10699662
I really hope she does know, or else this 'Celestia meeting' might end up with any of them bringing that up by accident, with NO EXPLANATION before that from the batponies, it WILL harm the trust they are giving to them badly.
10699745
First person is "I;" Second person is "You."
10699754
Yes, that’s why I have confusion in regards to your comment which you said “second to third person”
10699781
The original greentext is written in 2nd-person form, with the narrative voice being inside each viewpoint character’s head, as is fairly common for greentexts.
10699781
The original greentext version of the story is written in the second person.
Pity Anon doesnt have hisMusic player with him, small cell phone etc.
Celestia views SPAD? Id think its time for that favourite childrens film music.
Drop The Needle.
indeed she is. i really like Honour.
ah well this is interesting. and of cource its mystical...
oh this will be good.
thats a pretty good advice. i will take that by heart
i am in on that! give me the grenades! i want to play with them too!
but than the dreams end and the awekening comes... i know that feeling...
aaaaw Shot...
Yay, the weekend isnt so bad afterall! thank ou for updating ^^
What about rifling techniques and hammer mechanisms? Does he intend to bring the firearm to Equestria? Or does he intend to suppress such... destructive innovations. Only I think a pair of ceremonial duelling pistols might suit him.
However much is going on, even something big like The Gala, I'm pretty sure Celestia and Luna have final say in their own schedules.
"What's this? Something I haven't seen in a thousand years plus of life? Put it on my schedule!"
We all knew this was going to happen.
Jesus! Tomorrow?!
Wow Celestia sure uhh....can be expedient when she wants! Whew boy. Hoping that turns out alright!
1. Holy cow, 115 chapters?! The story simultaneously feels like it isn't "that" long, and yet it feels like a regular part of my life at this point.
2. Speaking of "regular", thanks for the heads up! And thank you so, so much for keeping this on an even pace! Daily, weekly, or otherwise, it's real nice having consistency instead of "here's 100 chapters, have a hiatus for god-knows-how-long".
10699806
Ah ok, thanks for explaining.
Every third day is hitting the brakes? Compared to some fics that only update once a month or sporadically longer, every third day is still a luxury!
This was a great chapter! A little sad to hear of the slower updates, but it's certainly the right call.
A sleep-deprived newbie driver & gunner under the stress of being directly observed by royalty with a known effect akin of aerosolized LSD. What could possibly go wrong?
And speaking of sleep deprivation, it's time for mine. I was turning in when I saw this.
Good chapter
10700075
A list of what can't would take far less time..also I need to hit the rack too..have a good sleep.
10699984
Apparently, the train is powers by magic xD
Sounds a lot Cleaner to me
Nice chapter
The story is getting interesting but it's better to slow down than having a hiatus...or, Celestia forbid, filler chapters
10700249
Sometimes I like filler. Sometimes it's nice to read/watch the characters interact or do something that does not really affect the overall plot, but makes the characters seem more real.
One of my favorite anime shows is Lucky Star.
10700249

To each their own, I personally wouldn't mind some Character development chapters, but I also wouldn't want it to drown the plot, and I think the author is doing a great job keeping it fairly balanced in that regard. I'm sad knowing that soon it'll probably be closer to a week for new chapters when he catches up to the OG story he's editing/rewriting (haven't read the OG so im not sure how much is being changed) im thankful for the amazing story and one of the few that has me checking everyday a new chapter gets released.
We're starting to get close to the end...
Me: Oh God no!
...of the existing, written content for the story.
Also me: Oh sweet Jeebus dont do me like that!
No problem. Thanks for the delay. Semi-daily or weekly updates to a great story is a welcomed relief to a hectic week!
Still looking forward to more!
10699672
I thought that it read just fine but could perhaps adding a third person pronoun help, as in
"Estellar -- or rather since she is on the surface of Equestria -- Sergeant First Class Purity Ebonshield..."
When will anon get fucked by his guardsmares huh?
10699845
The weapon is Lily. This provides a mobile, potentially armorable fighting platform.
"something something star wars reference. Something something complete"
I've been exhausted all weekend but finally finished this chapter. Trust Celestia to clear her schedule for the most interesting thing to land on her table in weeks.
10700922
I know, I read it too. But with a whole section on chemical explosives, surely basic gunpowder, a simple blend of sulphur, carbon, and potassium nitrate, would be right at the start of the chapter. Combine that with a rifled tube and a flintlock mechanism, and you have a primitive firearm.
So it would seem.
I am sensing a little favoritism for our Royal Engineer among the Equestrian leadership. I know what Anon is bringing to Equestria will lead it's growth to new heights in the future, but is that really enough incentive to push back the current affairs of state?
Now I am all the more curious as to what exactly about Anon made him so interesting to the Princesses.
10701797
She probably was too idealistic to consider it. I'm pretty sure a lot of ponies have noticed that VIPs usually get assigned guards who are the opposite sex. And while Sparkshower probably did not even consider that such "arrangements" can be common even in private sector (boss with the secretary), a lot of other ponies probably did consider it or maybe are even part of such "arrangements".
You can miss a lot of "this" stuff if you are not looking for it or do not know what to look for.
So much for the plan of getting on her schedule in a few weeks.
10701252
Difficult to uninvent something, and it seems likely to cause more harm than good?
10702451
Then again, it seems that they have already made the 1st steps in that area, as per Miss Pie’s party cannon. It just doesn’t seem to have occurred them to use it for military purposes.
Yes, that is funny.
10702956
They risked her soul. I think consent was very relevant.
It always bothered me how pony characters in this story have human first names. Or that they follow human naming conventions with first and last names. But with the recent G5 reveals it looks like these characters were simply ahead of their time. When you have names like Sunny Starscout or Hitch Trailblazer, Artemis Sparkshower no longer sound odd.
Still don’t like it, however.
