Oh dear.... that's gonna draw some attention... but at least she is happy

Yes. I am so certain Princess Celestia is gonna pop in and be like "Young colt, what the buck are you doing?? Deaging ponies??!!""
I really can't wait for when he meets her
Ah getting used to new procedures, nothing like potentially literally making someone younger by accident.
How long until the childhood arc ends and the youth arc begins or jumps to the adult arc?
If he really did reverse her aging, maybe that's what'd get the princesses to hire him

It definitely feels like there is only a matter of time until he gets his cheeks spanked for drastically changing pony society. Although, it also wouldn't surprise me if Cure being there at all is kind of a predestination paradox, where his actions will clear up some of the inconsistencies between this time frame and the one seen in the show.

I've been absolutely horrible at guessing in the past, so I'm hesitant to say. I can tell you that I originally wanted to be into his adulthood by around 400k words. That is obviously not going to happen. The way I expect this to work is I'm going to keep doing chapters for new experiences and interesting random encounters, but I expect to do a LOT of time skipping particularly in ages 11 through 15. I'm talking like 4-5 months and maybe a chapter, then another 8 months later or whatever. Of course I put a high value on reader input, so if I start doing that and everyone collectively loses their shit then I may re-evaluate. At the same time, I really am writing this for fun, so maybe not.
If I absolutely had to guess a number I'd want to aim high and say 700, maybe 650k, but again... I'm HORRIBLE at guessing. Hell, this was supposed to be like a 1000 word chapter and look... almost 3300?
Anyhow, I have a list of things that Cure has thrown out there as ideas, and a lot of them are things he can't feasibly do until he's older; at least 13-14, because at that point he should be basically be fully grown.
It's likely that I'll have to take a break once his childhood years are up so I can do some offline world building and planning, because I have some ideas of what the world outside Equestria looks like, but I definitely want to take some time and come up with some "this is what's going on here and this is why it's important to us" kind of stuff. The only question will be how much effort I want to put into it.
Cure will be fine for now, but in the future there will probably be trouble when Violet is still breathing when she suspects she should have kicked the bucket by now. If Celestia catches wind of this...
Cure really just made someone a couple of decades younger all in a day's work? I think his godfather is going to be very interested in this procedure, both for himself and the other family members his age.

Thanks for the answer, I personally find this fanfic incredible, you write incredible

Cure's response
11450432
I wouldn't be surprised if this ends up being one of those stories that's three million words at the rate you're going.
Those fillies, every one of em, gonna end up in Cure's harem. Calling it now. Or at least most of them. Who wouldn't want a biomanipulating prodegy who's also a kind and generous soul siring their children? Hell, maybe he ends up being the grandsire to a certain flame-haired unicorn mare in the future...
"YET"
He most likely could with enough knowledge, power, and time. But who knows what kind of insanity he will be he able able to perform once he reaches his peak.
Edit after finishing chapter
Looks like he may have done so by mistake already.
Impressive. It's nice to see Cure still getting surprised by his abilities.
11450443
I'd guess that along with whatever else, she'd also be secretly ecstatic; now she could potentially have non-alicorn friends that don't die on her within a century.
This does pose complicated long-term considerations, though. On the one hoof it's unethical to not pursue ethical forms of immortality, but on the other you have to contend with a suddenly immortal population that still has a reproductive drive, or worse, a class divide between immortal ponies and those without access to it.
11450428
Yep!!
Thanks for the update!
Since that de-aged pony is probably a rich noble of some sort, and a graduate of a magical unicorn academy. I’d say if for some inexplicable reason, Celestia wasn’t going to visit him before. She’s definitely going to do so now. Can’t have all the nobles in power trying to make themselves immortal or triple their lifespans. I can’t imagine what that would do to equestrians economy and distribution of wealth. Not to mention the paperwork, the enemy of all with the ability to write.
dam cure, hes going to get mob'd by the golden girls horde next
meanwhile in bulwarks office in the guard station "bang's his head on his desk REPEATEDLY"
11450390
Yeah, that was more than cosmetic, might ruffle some feathers
I'm fully expecting Celestia to come in disguise to experience his services for herself and get found out because I doubt she can hide her actual presence from such an in-depth magical screening.
If anything he isn't charging enough.
He's charging roughly the same to a little more what others would charge but he's extremely fast as well as high quality.
Oh sure you can heal the broken arm for $3k and a cast and months of pain and waiting or you can spend $3.5k and have It fixed in a few minutes. It's a huge difference, like he should charge at least double whatever the normal rate is.
11450536
She'd probably know that and send a SMILE agent instead.
If she hasn't already...
11450610
Yeah but a fool can dream.
You might as well have written a letter. "Dear Princess Celestia, today I learned how to reverse ageing..."
How much longer before he winds up outright resurrecting some recently dead pony? If some foal is dead, he’s GONNA try it.
11450654
Cure: "I can't believe that worked!"
Bystander: "He resurrected Lazy Rest!"
Cure: *facehoof*
11450682
“There’s a difference between MOSTLY dead and ALL dead.”
Also:
Sgt Bulwark: “I have a headache behind my eye. I’m tasting metal.”
Need to FUS RO DAH intensifies.
Good chapter!
Para Cure curar el envejecimiento no es gran cosa, solo tiene que curar los problemas que genera este mismo y es como si nunca los hubieras tenido, así que prácticamente puede hacer "Inmortal" a cualquiera que lo logre convencer.
One hell of a story.👍
Wow best ch so fat thank u
I hope when you wrote Cure to "fix everything", it didn't include restarting her estrus too; Starlight's family tree might probably be weird now.
Plus, "fix everything" is very potent that he might even have accidentally done brain surgery too. I'm sure Cure might not like the full implication of what he's done sooner or later.
This is really intriguing! I hope more moral dilemmas befall Cure's family and friends. Cure is, for all intents and purpose, now a god. Only these kinds of dilemmas will truly be his downfall

I think everyone is assuming the worst when he may have only repaired what was worn out but not the underlying issue of old age. This mare will probably live longer but I also suspect she will "age" at an accelerated rate. You all remember that bit about cells only having so many growth cycles in them before they just up and quit, right? If he didn't get right down to the very DNA of the issue, it's still there and we will eventually have a very well-preserved body in the casket.
This isn't saying Cure can't do it. I'm positive he can and will (on himself no doubt) once he's older with a larger pool of mana to work with.
He might also want to charge 5k or 10k since vanity is one sin noble ponies have in spades. (Let the hounding of Cure begin!)
11450654
Resusci-..whatever. Paramedical help. If that recent and brain didn't die, he obviously can fix lethal issue. At limits of Kreb's cycle.
*high enough
"Low enough" implies he might need to make the price lower to run the service
And a graduate of Celestia's school no less, there be risk right there alone! 😂
I feel kinda bad... He's working at such a young age! Enjoy your childhood, Cure, you only get two of them ;-;
...Kid just made more then his parents do in a month, in 40 minutes. My gods.
