With the aid of her sister, Princess Cadence, and even Twilight Sparkle, the four will embark on a small adventure of a lost race which sought to give the rest of the universe eveything they could for a brighter future.

I’m not sure how I feel about the talking toilet but I can’t stop reading… This has me chuckling and worried at the same time.
I'm assuming that's from the brain tissue removal.
In the Year 2525... If man is still alive..
That was cute, really cool to see you still writing after all these years.
Hmmm, very interesting, and also silly ...

OH, Lucy's chocolate scene is rather close to Pinkie's cherry one
Imagine having a cellphone as a diplomatic ambassador.

Makes me think of Singularity Sky...
Very light hearted and funny I love it
anytime i see '2525' in the tittle of something i think of the tv show 'cleopatra 2525'
I seriously expected the microwave to just say "MMMMMMMMMMMMMM" like a human would. Maybe a demo is what they needed to pick him.

Im ashamed to admit it was inspired kinda by the episode of Bobs Burgers, where Gene finds a toilet in the woods.
10795790
Maaaaaybe.
10795972
I'm kinda glad it was the cell phone that had you concerned the most.
10796440
Hah, actually that would have been fun too.
I don't think I want to know what my toilet would have to say about me lol
I kept thinking... Brave little toaster. This was incredibly well done; though, you're right the last section was a little short. Thank you
Thats random

The earth looks different, but the debris field is exactly the same. Not sure if someone ripped someone else off or what.

This was a fun story. It's a nice change of pace to read about post-humanity stuff without it getting heavy.

Pretty sure the one you found is a variant done by the same artist. He's selling one nearly identical to the cover art (only with blue tinting instead of gold) through iStock.
I'd like to point out Luna didn't specify which one is which and Luna IS the smaller of the 2.
LOL!! It's Courage's old computer!!
The microwave with the brain the size of a planet--"Life? Don't talk to me about life."
But no arby?
Thanks for the story, hope you're feeling better
In my house when sick, we always had a Hot toddy (whiskey & honey) before bed.
But this story got me now looking for retired princess stories.
Oh yes. I've heard even Celestia enjoys their tune dedicated to her, titled-"Here Comes The Sun... Goddess."
I have absolutely no idea where this is going, but I simply must find out!
Madness. Madness, indeed. But, adorable madness :)
10795857 WE are going to make certain that does not happen. You filthy monkeys will never threaten my galactic real estate trade empire! Right Ginyu? (Absolutely, Lord Freeza!)
LMAO THE TOILET
i have several questions that i feel shouldnt be answered
10799489
Not after we breed our women with Sayians
10799680 "Princess Truuuuuunks..."
Well that was a interesting fic...wait, a vacuum...toaster..lamp..radio..angry car....hmm, was the toaster brave by chance?
This was a fun and silly read. Was a little disappointed that the Flying Scotsman wasn't the steam engine for choice considering its world renown fame and achievements.
Thanks for the fun read.
Good story. I really liked it.
"Hello wonderful person! Today we are going to be taking a look at the mysterious objects in the night skies!"
"Stardate 6 and 7/8ths. Captain Brave Little Toaster commanding the Starship Junkheap towards the mysterious planet of diminutive enchanted equines. Commander Vacuusuck has just beamed down to make first contact with this alien civilization. It is as yet unknown if we shall have to violently conquer them and/or impregnate all their mares. The Prime Directive is... nebulous... regarding the situation at cord."
Alondro waves from the side of the screen, "And I helped!"
Alondro leaaaaaans into frame again, slowwwwwwly and creepily, "I REALLY helped!"
My toilet is a fecophiliac.
IMPROPER PHYSICS DETECTED!! NUCLEAR REACTOR CRITICALITY DOES NOT RESULT IN DETONATION, BUT MELTDOWN!! ANY EXPLOSIVE EVENTS ARE CAUSED BY HYPERCRITICAL STEAM PRESSURE!!! THIS STORY HAS FAILED MY SCIENCE SENSES!! REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!! *Robcakeran53 is CANCELLED from all social media... and all appliance conventions... for his GRIEVOUS sins!

No... no, trust me you don't.
10805602
HAH, GOD NO. I'm dumb but not suicidal.
10801423
Actually no the toaster was an absolute coward. I even said one planet with a water species wanted the toaster, to which it nope'd the fuck out of that.
10805593
IT WAS THE TWENTY FORTH CENTURY, PHYSICS PROBABLY CHANGED BY THEN OR SOMETHING.
10806651 YOU CAN ONLY CHANGE PHYSICS IF YOU KNOW THE COSMIC SOURCE CODE!!!
Or do that manifestation thing all the Tiktok thots are into now... why is humanity becoming stupider by the day now?
This should actually be "We are standing before thee, dost thou not see?"
10809708
Shit, now that I read it, you're right. Man, I'm bad at olden timey speachy peachy. Thanks, I'll correct it.
Sammy, the mobile phone, cannot move on her own.
