FIRST!!!!!
Well with that out of the way. Thanks for the Chapter.
I've got zero problems with the story taking its time. While I am curious how Cure's first encounter with Luna will go, I am 100% content to wait and read about all of the entertainingly-bizarre situations Cure will wind up in until that point; SoL, or not.
Are you sure about that?
Heh, great chapter : )
Sooo, kirin/gryphon/dragon fillyfriends when? Can't leave our prince without proper representative harem, aren't we? : )
Yay!
It's more Cure Wave!
Awesome to see you incorporating the bat-pony culture into your story!
I look forward to seeing more of the bat community later. Perhaps Cure will actually find a bat-filly he likes, maybe not.
Back to 12k chapters I see 😊
awesome chapter, dam the reporters this will blow up to media circus
he i just also had that vivid image of a room full of about 25-30 filly's checking out the new MALE alicorn
ps: Cure Wave Addiction satisfied for now ^^
Where have I read this logic before.
<grins>
Awesome chapter, I very much enjoyed this chapter. RL always comes first, hope you have a good trip what ever it is.
I'm hoping this story goes on for quiet awhile, it's a really good one. I love Cure as a character, and all the other characters are awesome
Making Mondays great again with Cure,
Good chapter as usual with interesting idea of him getting a bat filly to his growing harem
Honestly, I am fine with you taking your time as long as updates come frequently. Also, real life comes first always but its to see you are giving your readers a heads up for a hiatus.
Should be May 22nd
That poor teacher is just trying to do her job, cant let a child she is responsible for just leave without something or someone relieving her of that responsibility. I do hope the letter for Miss Apple was signed either Celestia or Serpentis though just to really drive her crazy. Seriously though, respect to teachers that accept responsibility for a ton of kids they have very limited authority over to leverage.
Hope you enjoy your trip in August. Real life always comes first and we don't want you to get burnt out with the story either so breaks can be a good thing. Just remember to come back! It would be a real shame if something happened to an unattended pony.
Thanks for the chapters and Can't wait to see more Loved the prank on Title with Savvy. Can't wait for Savvy to grow up she will be so spoiled by everyone and will be a little explorer.
neat chapter. I was saying that I thought a skip was coming soon because you kept saying one was soon some chapters before
I feel like Cure should sit down with Song and have a talk with her. I understand where Song is coming from. Even if it isn't her daughter she wants nothing more than for a bat pony to be given a chance. Here is the thing though. Wouldn't she rather any of the fillies wind up with someone who loves them for who they are, instead of an arranged relationship or one based on looks.
Opinion on that over, so now for the author's notes. Do I love the story? Absolutely. Does it bother me when RL comes up and I have to wait for more? Absolutely NOT. You are a living person with a life outside of writing this story. You're life comes first, we aren't even a second. We are where you decide we are, and we shouldn't complain about that. You are in no way obligated to write this or any other story. If anyone tries to rush you or berate you F*** 'EM. You always come first in my book.
Enough tirades now. Love the story, enjoy your trip in August, and keep doing you. See you later.

Don't forget a hippogriff. They'd be on Mt. Aeris at this time.
I just need a gif of Stewie's head turn.
As always, an enjoyable read. I especially liked that little laugh you gave us at the end! I seriously thought her daughter did that for real!
Love the story, and please stay awesome as you are.
And it is as you said, rl come first and it is all about the journey- But i do have a question: Cure wanted to put something near Discord stutue, like a music, when will He do it?
11621062
Shoot, what about interactions with Sunny? And what of the Apple's untimely demise? At the moment, Granny Smith should be pretty young at the family farm on the outskirts of a budding village called Ponyville.
Personally, I'd want to keep the time skips to a minimum to watch Savvy grow up. As for all the hoopla over a new alicorn Prince, I seriously doubt it'll last more than a few years, tops. Ten or twenty down the road and it'll be back to business as usual in Equestria. Just two royals instead of one-- Celestia could actually take a vacation! (Not if Cure has anything to say about it, he's smart enough to know he wants nothing to do with that throne)
I'm a bit disappointed with how half-assed he has been with hiding his identity. Like you'd think he'd try a lot harder considering he is putting a target on his friends and families back if word gets out. More importantly they'd have to deal with people following them everywhere and sucking up to them constantly.
Although ponies are different then humans so maybe it wouldnt be as bad as if the president lived in a small neighboorhood house. Also, the reporters constantly hounding them and writing stories about ever part of there life would really suck. His filly friends would have it the worst and there families would get so much hate mail.
Maybe the diarchs already have laws protecting them and their friends from such things? Like if I was a dictator there would be loads of laws against besmirching royalty and such things.
I just got the mental image of them acting like those hanging row of metal balls you see in CEO offices, just clacking back and forth
--------------------------------
Personally, I'm perfectly fine with the story not reaching 'canon time' for a looong time. I read this for the world you've built, and to have it rushed so you can reach 'canon' sounds wrong. A sad fact of reality is you can't please everyone, so concentrate on writing a story you want to write, and can look back on with pride. Not to say you shouldn't listen to constructive criticism, but it is YOUR story, not theirs, remember that

He’s 8 years old.
Damnit. Now we all have the mental impression of our hero helicoptering.
Poor shy Ebony. Maybe Cure will talk with her later. Celestia is going to be stoked when she reads the story in the paper. Shame about the doctor shortage. I wonder what he’d have to do to be eligible for a doctorate -medical or honorary. Would an honorary degree suffice? Maybe not…
It would be pretty cool if Cure got a green light to visit Hollow Shades in the fall or near future to get a bat pony population surge started. That’s an uncommon location for stories. With all the booms likely coming, there’s also a reason to look into the food production. Teaching earth pony magic secrets to the agricultural sector could be fun. I do wonder what he’ll learn from the fruit tree Celestia sent, too.
11621400
Hippogriffs are a thing, but it was established earlier that Mt. Aris isn't.
How hard is Polished Apple going to vapor lock/blue screen when it is revealed Cure is Serpentus?! Poor teach. “Oh Celestia, I told him if he worked hard maybe he’d be good enough to be his own assistant!”
LOLd at kitty Cure’s ‘whut’ face when Sgt Song went all Fat Bastard “Get. In. Muh. Belly”
11622063
Oh, right. They're hybrids in this version of Equestria, aren't they? My bad.
Thanks for the chapter
No worries with the upcoming hiatus. As you said, RL always comes first. I'll just hope that whatever's calling you away is safe, enjoyable, and memorable and that you return refreshed and ready to go,
11621702
You do make a fair point however, should he be found out, would you risk pissing off an immortal God by bothering their friends and family.
I feel the ponies in this universe basically worship their Princess and the Prince because he is Alicorn Colt. A foreign country would receive a herd mentality focus of "displeasure" if they did anything.
Someone else also pointed out in an earlier chapter how Cure could either appear as Serpentus and puppet a Cure body or change Heavy to Cure's colours and voice in order to disprove any theorized identity.
With all that said, I do wonder what kind of trouble Cure's friends and family might receive if/when his identity is revealed.
What exactly bothered you about the last chapter that made you feel Cure was being careless. Beyond Sgt. Song arriving a minute before Serpentus randomly teleported in. The only ponies who could workout his identity are the Guards... no? Or are we referring to Sergeant Song's theory of discovery?
11622357
I just thinking too many people know or suspect his identity and there was that bit at the start about them thinking how easy it'd be to narrow him down. The whole 5,000 male earth ponies and only so many earth pony colts his age in the area. Yes I'd think ponies would think differently about rulers then humans who've gone through dozens(hundreds?) of unique forms of rulership. Still the whole worshiping the ground he treads and him being the only male alicorn would cause many problems. He will be the only male and the only alicorn to have prospective mates in living memory. Blueblood told everyone his approximate age and that he was an earth pony so finding him in shouldn't be very difficult if you know his area(which was in newspaper). Although ponies can be extremely bad at seeing/finding the obvious (aka mare do well and chrysalis).
I'm loving this story.
There’s LOTS that’s been set up to happen just this story year, so I sure hope LFOD doesn’t get into too many big time skips too soon;
Ok, school year is wrapping up, is the talent show next week? Do we get to see??? RP needs to bring her Sax out of hiding. That’s the kind of event that may find a few other cutie marks too.
Does the family FINALLY get into their new home?
Does Miss Apple get a mystery invitation to the capitol for SSC? There’s probably plenty to be covered in that two week period: summer births, the extended family and friends getting stuffed into the palace, Cure’s room(!), the sunrise, coronation, his speech, Cloudsdales births, the twins birth… His identity coming to light would be reasonable in this time frame. I know some of this stuff will kind of be a rehash of the prior Canterlot and birthing season arcs, but I think it’s worth more than a ”I delivered 300 foals today” blurb. I’d bet that this month, in story, will have multiple chapters.
I sure hope we get to follow Cure to the squad competition for the guards
Cure needs to join Celestia for some diplomatic events, do we get to meet Citrine (?) the dragon again? Who else? Some zebras? How’s that going to play out?
Do his mk1 trees get found?
Has Cure ever got around to making his glow in the dark lavender plant?
Then there’s some significant near future plot points to be made; His discussion about his memories, cutie marks for the rest of the crew, how does the “long distance” relationship work out when he and Dawn go to CSGU and the others remain behind. Who all joins the guard, do they stagger their enlistments or all sign up together? Does Cure go??? Kinda like how the British princes would be commissioned as officers… Does Solar end up joining Celestia’s honor guard, or Cure’s? Do the rest of the girls get assigned to his guard, to keep them close or are they kept in “administrative” positions locally?
Then there’s some canon irregularities, Celestia spoke about wolves, but the timberwolves weren’t mentioned
So, yeah, there’s a ton of story to be told before we get anywhere near canon…
Idle thoughts behind this spoiler, actual chapter related stuff further down. I have to wonder if eventually Cure can create life with Metaphysical qualities at some point. Like full on creating a Dragon Egg that needs a metric ton mana to hatch or plug in to the tree harmony to make canon events actually work. Summon ponies through cutie marks because he can sense the ponies already through life sense.
I dunno, I feel like he's really set himself up to become the events in the show later while he takes a more passive (but still very busy) role
Anyway, thoughts aside, this chapter.
I enjoyed this chapter quite a bit, fun to see Cure hang out with the bats and Sargeant Song, and it would be interesting to see if any bat fillies will join his posse. Unlikely cuz the cast is getting pretty full, but could be fun.
Sucks we missed a Sunday with Celestia what with that 9 day time skip. I imagine nothing important was discussed, hence missing it, but I would like to read a hug at least. Celestia hugs are very few in my updated stories list, this being the only one.
As for Ms Apple, I'm really surprised she's acting the way she is, like, Cure is clearly competent in all fields, helpful in class, and wingpony to a lonely Mare. One has to wonder if she only fights so hard because she wants him around as much as possible and is too proud to say it.
Also, Alicorn biology, we never really explained it to the reader yet and what it specifically does. At least I don't remember anything Discussing Alicorn bones or Mitochondria or how effective the body is compared to the basic tribes + other races. I'd be interested in a full on 15k word introspection and mechanics dive at any point.
I think the only thing mentioned is his bone armor, but not what it's derived from in particular. I wonder if giving someone genuine Alicorn body parts would make them instant Ascend, since just looking like one isn't enough.
Anyway, looking forward to more Cure and Family hijinks, keep up the excellent work
I am still enjoying this story. hope that you are safe on your travels
I was severely disappointed in Shadow Song in this chapter and lost respect for her. She was basically trying to force or at least manipulate Cure into potentially getting with either her daughter or another bat pony filly.
Not. Friggin. Cool. Song.
If I was Cure I would most likely distance myself from her because of her doing that. Because if she was actually willing to do that, despite being a guard and something close to being Cure's friend, then just what else is she willing and capable of doing?
If her daughter had said something to her about being interested in Cure and she was simply trying to help Ebony out, then she seriously went about it the wrong way.
If that was the case, then Song probably should have just had a talk with Cure about it instead of trying to be sneaky. At the least she could have asked if he would at least talk to her daughter about it, even of nothing came of it to give Ebony some closure.
11621960
Honestly? I really wouldn't mind seeing more of Ebony after this chapter, possibly even becomimg a friend of his. There is basically every tribe in his friend group except for a bat pony, so that would add a new and interesting dynamic and perspective.
Though I don't want to see any more of Shadow Songs meddling in the matter though.
11622840
I can at least respect subtly trying. No forcing the interactions on her part whilst enabling the scenario seems ok to me. She'd be a fool to not at least try to encourage some interaction, and it's ok to be interested, who doesn't want a good future for themselves and their children?
I'd lost more respect for the others there who are clearly making a spectacle of themselves which is what caused Cure to make an announcement in the first place.
11622840
11622846
I don't see how she was forcing anything. Yes, she engineered a scenario where he would meet a bunch of bat fillies, but once he was there she stayed out of it.
I kinda get where the skipping people are coming from, as seeing Cure interact with the M6 era characters (And particularly, Cure possibly being present when Luna/NMM returns) are one of the things I'm looking forward to the most.
It kinda sucks that those parts are so far away, but honestly, I have great faith in your writing skills. You'll get there when you get there, and the trip will be pretty fun along the way.
Personally, I don't think you should time skip all that much, unless it's mundane stuff that's considered repetitive then you should, but yeah I'm not in a rush to get to the current Era. Definitely don't skip the key critical events that we , as readers, actually want to read. So yeah long and short of it, keep doing what your doing and I'm looking forward for the next chapter.
11617037
Uh, I live in the States, so Imperial is what I'm used to... and I went to school, so I can read XXIX VI MMXXIII as today's date just fine.
Thanks for the heads up about the trip! I hope you have a wonderful time and no matter how long the wait is I'm just grateful for you sharing this wonderful story of yours. ❤️

Agreed. No need to rush or huge time skips. Time skips are needed just to avoid repetition or unnecessary things. Short, medium or long. But yea decades is mad *stares at the end of G4 & start if G5*
I just thought when will you leave? will there be a chapter this week? it would suck to wait for it just to find out you are already gone.
