she mostly has a plan, dang it rarity!
3 things stuck out to me in this chapter:
1-Kudos to Twilight and Celestia for acknowledging the political ramifications of Rarity's actions, especially with how much favor the humans have. Really glad to see both royals adjusting to their new world in what seems to be a step forward in the right mindset.
2-Cerbs really starting to dance on the line of no return again, though like last time it's more for his healing than simply trying to bed a mare...even if some of said mares have that endgame in mind.
3-And here I thought Rarity and Fluttershy would behave after the speech Rarity gave not too long ago...4 chapters in and we've already almost got a political crisis on our hands.
Great chapter all in all, hope your feeling better man
Holy shit... I had twice to run the text to speech function because how mutch content and difficulty this puzzle was showing.
Daaammmnnn!
Rarity really drowned the Puppy with her actions...
Hope Spike is getting better and he really will in fact get natural replacements.
Pinkie Pie is a riot and i am looking forward to her antics. Highly entertaining!
In case we need at some point a new God of Chaos, I vote Pinkie.
Luna will be probably quite salty without her saltlick Kelly.
Fluttershy is back in action? Finally she pulled the
'ooo the poor homicidal Owlbear is dead' stick out of her ass... Because... I fear going Derpy from facepalming so mutch after reading her reasoning...
Looking forward to the part where the humans come up. Even if it's basically them staying in bed and talking all day because everyone and their Uncle is fucked up one way or another.
I fear for Big Mac, poor guy will have to learn to life with blueballs syndrome.
Kelly probably will be out of frustration leak a river worth of frustration.
Poor Becky has ridiculous levels of backlog to teach the ponies...
At least Lumberman and Applejack will have less drama on their laps. Perhaps they can start a Building school or something? Ever Nation will want his actually learned and proven teachings to share. 👍
All in all glorious story update 👍
1 both flutters and the marshmallow are being borderline yandere and it looks like tia is about to go conversion burau Celestia or at least daybreaker and i REALLY think both twi and sunbutt need to lay off the hooch for a bit it seems to me they are starting to drink when stressed and thats not healthy and needs to be addressed and....huh......where did sunbutt get the wine from i thought they had no concept of alcohol

Let us not forget, even if it's been a while, something BonBon once told Lyra in CTTB: Chapter 49.5 Interlude: So, About the Humans the Other Night.

I'd say that Cadance's letters also reflected her acknowledgment of potential ramifications, thus all the selective wording she chose for phrasing how Cerb's care was attended to, as well as addressing him as ambassador Husk. Also, she referred to Thunder, Rainbow, Fleetfoot, and Spitfire as "heroines involved in the Young Ambassadors Rescue Event," which could be used as a tactic so that not her or any other party in the know could challenge their qualification to be trusted with Cerb without drawing attention to that event in the first place.
Even the ending of the letter was calm almost apologetic instead of hurling insults or leveraging her own demands. Cadance did play her cards rather smartly to present the best picture for how she was caring for Cerb without inviting retaliation.
With Celestia, she's been in power for a 1,000 plus years, so this is nothing new to her. For Twilight, though... She picked up quick to realize that Rarity fucked up, but it's not clear if even she knows how much of a powder keg this situation could turn into if Rarity tries to lite the fuze again.
Cerb... I almost want to say fell into the same trap as did with Flutters and Rarity, but I could also say that he never really got out of it with them, and Cadance kind of stepped in and ran off with him when Flutters and Rarity had their break downs. Cerb never got all the help he needed. He never had the chance to with everything else going on. There was a plan to really start working on his issues, and there was some moments of him opening up, but the plan was always for him to got to Crystal Empire to fix himself anyway. Only now, his two prior lovers got left behind.
Although, as far as some of his other weaknesses go... that boy might be in trouble.
Oh, they learned their lessons on how they let screwed up with abandoning Cerb when he needed them. This new mess is new set of fuck ups trying to make amends.
This is just the start of things.
Thanks for saying so, and it looks like some of the wheels are in motion for me finally getting my medical case more attention.
11488508
Yeah, I did cram a lot into this chapter. Sorry bout that.
Well, more like she just got over-passionate about reclaiming her gentleman.
Spike should get some more attention drawn his way eventually. I couldn't fit him in this chapter with everything else going on.
Pinkie did get screwed over in the first arc, so I wanted her to take a more serious role this time around... but as soon as I started to write her dialog... ya know... more Pinkie came out.
Oh, good lord. As if were ever even a question.
Saltlick? I could have sworn I wrote it more as a honeypot than a saltlick.
Regardless, with Kelly off doing some of her self-improvements and giving Luna a free pass on Cerb, I would think Luna would have other intentions for her #2 on Who To Bed List.
Can't blame the girl for having a hard time after watching a creature die right in front of her. Literally watching the life drain from its eyes. Otherwise, she knows she screwed up and wants her Cerb back, so she's going to let her preditor eat his kill.
It will be interesting to see what they have to say. Each person is going to be busy with their own shit and have different takes on the subject, not to mention priorities given their position, jobs, or... needy mares. ***Cough**** Chris ***Cough***
Oh, boy... Both Big Mac and Kelly messed up when Sugar Belle entered the picture. Still gotta see how that is gonna turn out. Not sure how Big Mac is gonna deal with Little Big Mac until Kelly comes around or Luna... Umm... Damn... How does Luna play into this with Kelly taking a break from both of them?
And she has Shining to take care of while he's watching over her in Rainbow's absence.
Less drama? Probably
A builder school? I doubt it.
Thanks, bud. I'm just glad it came out on time.
11488726
of course. I just had to think how some plans of hers didn't work out in the show, you know?
11488710
Fluttershy could possibly be a yandere. At least in one scene that's kind of what I was going for when she was about to lose her shit. Still looking cute but also about ready to snap.
At this point, Tia is struggling to maintain control so she put things in order and... well... Apparently she has a plan/
Very right you are. They are stress drinking, and no one is there to stop them, let along in any position to stop them.
Starlight went a little overboard duplicating the booze, and I'm guessing Celestia must have taken some home with her like she did with the nutty butty bars this time around.
11488754
It's all good, and I got ya. Also, if you didn't notice, a vast majority of the plans made by the pony characters made in the first arc never worked out or went anywhere.
For some reason, the humans kept on acting in ways that ruined any long-term plans.
11488743
True, Cadence does deserve Accolades for how's she's been acting in all of this. She truly has matured for the better alongside the other royals

At the very least Lumberman should bring out multiple books worth to teach others the basics:
- Foundations and placing of buildings 101.
- Wall stability and durability 101.
- Wall isolation and heating 101.
- How to
plow Applejacknail walls and stuff.- Building materials and why they need to be rost free.
- Indoor plumbing, how to not freezing your nuts off in winter...
11488776
In a lot of ways, it's hard to tell if it's actually Cadance or Celestia who lost the most. Both lost their families and their lovers. Although, Celestia still has her sister while Cadance has her daughter, but Shining may have pulled a Good King Sombra and chose to part ways as well. Of course, we still have to hear his side of the story, so that's to be decided.
Otherwise, it seems like she's also learned a lot from Celestia and might even be playing her a bit, using her to play some defense with the Travel Ban... All the better to hold tighter to Cerb with, I guess.
11488768
yeah
11488778
If anything, wait til his business takes off and spread his teachings that way. Make it a franchise... but that would be if he was in it for the money.
11488791
Pretty sure he is in it for the idea to share common sence and building basics.
If he earns some bits, all the better!
One letter to screw them all over, I have slightly more respect for politicians after this.
Rarity needs anger management therapy, further is she coming off as a owner who's dog has been taken away. Rarity sure needs to work on that.
Pinkie Pie has also a lot of potencial for improvements, in time maybe she get a human to snuggeling into when she learned self restraining herself and her antics.
Fluttershy was adorable but she needs to toughened up before reunited with Justin.
Because conflicts will be coming one way or another.
I wonder how the Nobel ponies and Blueblood will develop without Harmony guidance.
Luna had a lot of Kelly power drinks in the past, should that not usually boost her magic?
Her dream magic seemed iffy before... or was it only towards humans and their direct lovers?

Cadance is more than a princess. The crown comes with responsibilities, and those responsibilities come with complications she has to navigate.
I'd say it's more like she's taking ownership of her responsibility and not Cerb as a person. She's trying a bit too hard to fix her mistake, not really in the right way. At the same time, she doesn't know any other better way to do so.
Pinkie was always a kind soul and values the happiness of others above her own. She had to be reminded of that, but was able to see it come to fruition in ways she hadn't with others through Benny. More than that, his happiness came in a manner by giving him something she found out too late that she wanted as well, but had to give up. So, seeing that two of her friends had it, but screwed it up after trying to deny her of it, she has every right to be pissed off.
Very true, now they just need to figure out how to accomplish that.
Can't really say. They'll have to figure that out for themselves.
They already have, that's why she was able to fight so well against the echoes. Also, I'm sure her powers will grow as her body learns to adjust to the Order.
Her dream magic struggled to work against those who were freshly exposed to Order. We've only seen a limited use of it against Cerb when he had a nightmare. Otherwise, we have yet to see what she can really do now that she's coming into understanding the limits of her power.
