That One Strange Fellow


Literally dead inside and out, but that's okay.

T

An ancient pony contemplates the past and what is. It is how she stays sane after so long alone, and how she keeps in touch with who she is. Remembering those who have long passed...

wow eso fue profundo y emocional al extremo una realización de una verdad innegable de la inmortalidad y su horror se que desde mi idioma no pondrá mucho significado a este mensaje pero gracias por escribir esto fue hermoso y estoy agradecido por verlo y guardarlo en mi memoria solo puedo decir gracias sin ser capas de realmente expresarte lo mucho que aprecio que se me permitiera verlo. Dios te bendiga

Poor Twilight. This actually makes me wonder about Celestia and Luna.

I haven't read it yet, but this is gonna hurt isn't it

Indeed it did, but also EXPLAIN

I don’t know if this means Twilight is immortal or just lives very long, considering the ending where she visits her friends. Don’t know if her seeing them means she’s able to see them and is soon to pass, or if she’s just visiting and is immortal. Considering the span of years described, I think it maybe be the former, but either way, nicely written little one-shot.

It does make me think, indeed, what has become of them.

11684131
Not that. I mean what were their lives like as alicorns? Did they have friends? Did they lose them all? Same with cadence and flurry.

I think I also meant that. But you explained it better.

I’d think they’d have gone through something similar to Twilight’s situation, but I wonder in canon, if they would just be immortal and live out forever in retirement, or if they would eventually die. Living forever in retirement sounds like you would be annoyed by living that long. Maybe there was something said about what the last episode really means that I don’t know, but I’m just thinking.

I think it’s just them living longer.

11684161
Yeah. And I think for a kids show, them being immortal would probably be too sad. Spike shows that he ages so I’d think it’s just a longer lifespan, like dragons. But probably 5-10x longer if not more.

11684170
That’s a good point.

IIRC, Dragonshy referenced a “nap” for an adult dragon being around 100 years long (though the writers seem to have forgotten how adult dragons worked when they started exploring the species in detail).

Mmm that sounds interesting. Sounds like I have to rewatch that episode again sometime soon. Thanks for that little tidbit! If one nap can be 100 years I don’t even know what 8 hours of sleep would be like. :applejackconfused:

A theme I liked for the fic.

The trail off about the Mane 6 felt like filler, I would have had her remember about Spike. If any, what is she doing recalling something a trillion years ago? I would have had her remember that at the first million, let alone thousand.

But anyway, I appreciate how sweet and hopeful this is. It's such a low energy and very mysterious, yet it feels empty. Twilight, at her trillion-year mark, would have been a shell by then not-gonna-lie.

Annd... that's the gambit!

IMMORTALITY ......SUCKS !!!!!!!!!
