Nocturnal Reverie


Just a socially awkward potato that can't go one day without writing something.

E

A mare is given a chance to escape her tragic fate when she is visited by three spirits who show her the past, the present, and the future.

Inspired by A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens and MLP:FiM season 6 episode 8 "A Hearth's Warming Tale"

A retelling of the episode, but more closely following the novel.

I do not own MLP:FiM, nor do I own A Christmas Carol. This story is meant for entertainment purposes only.

This is really cool! I've read a Christmas Carol a lot and your writing matches his style pretty well. Thankfully it's just a bit more modern so it's easier to understand. :pinkiehappy:

Those two kids,well foals, always creeped me out. 😱

That was really good! Everything wraps up very well. Spike's name change was very funny!

Thank you for the review! Glad you found this story and enjoyed!

The idea to write a faithful adaptation sprang up in November, so it was kind of a mad dash for me to write the whole thing in time for Christmas.

The bonus chapter will be coming soon, I was just unable to write anything this weekend and that unfortunately gave me a slight roadblock that I’m currently working on breaking down. Stay tuned!

By the way, did you catch all the pony references?

You mean finding the mane six with their different names? Or...?

No, just the background characters. Every single character in this story is ripped from canon.

Except Blizzard Gale, that is.

I did notice Vinyl Scratch at the party and Luna was probably the future spirit. I wonder if Mr. Figgypudding is related to the one of the founders of Equestria?

Mm, not quite LOL. But that would have been a good idea! Vinyl and Luna are correct, though!
