After Twilight Sparkle’s library was destroyed, she needed to list everything she lost in the battle for compensation. And the pony handling her file has a few
. Actually, a lot of questions.

“
 I’m in trouble, aren’t I?”

"You could say that again" Luna, Discord and Cadence from the backroom probably

“I see. Now, tell me, Mrs. Sparkle, are you familiar with the ‘Want-it-need-it’ spell?”

Huh?

This was absolutely Celestia tits burning marvelous ♡
This is a masterpiece for everycreatures library :rainbowlaugh:👍

Luna be like:
"I should have hired a lawyer instead of going Nightmare Moon!"

And Duly Noted be like;
"About that..."

Luna:
"No way..."

Duly Noted:
"Did you know that Celestia forget to officially exile you?"

Luna:
"Em... Nooo?..."

Duly Noted:
"Apperently you are the 'Queen' now, until Celestia get out of the dungeon..."

Luna:
"Huh... Neat..."


Later~


*Duly Noted burns up in a green fire and Queen Chrysalis emerge*

Queen Chrysalis:
"I love it when a plan succeeded ~♀"

Pharynx:
"What now my Queen?"

Queen Chrysalis:
"We do what we try ever night!"

Thorax:
"Nibble on love and eat popcorn?"

Queen Chrysalis:
"Every second night with exception of Mondays."

Pharynx:
"Take over the world by snuggeling ponies?"

Queen Chrysalis:
"Exactly! Now we will sue ponykind into it and than let it go for favors like a date, snuggeling or even..."
*blushing deeply* "Hoove holding!"

*The holes Chrysalis swarm is blushing profusely*

Gave me a good laugh! Now i wonder how this will end for Celestia

Oh, is that the wrong mrs? I probably meant ms. Thanks for pointing it out!

“What? Th-that can’t be right. I mean, Celestia recommended that Library to me.”

what a snitch

To explain the difference: "Mrs" is specifically referring to a married woman, whereas "Ms" is if you're unsure or neutral of her marital status. "Miss" is for young unmarried women by comparison.

I'll just chuckle at this... :moustache:

After all, bureaucrats are a sin against society. Plus, I agree with Shakespear (the REAL one) that all lawyers should be banished...

:rainbowderp:
This story is fucking impressive! :rainbowlaugh::rainbowlaugh::rainbowlaugh:

So is this comment! :rainbowlaugh::rainbowlaugh::rainbowlaugh:

Duly Noted stared at the towering crystal tree, letting her eyes trail the long branches that hug above her.

The crooked crystal branches stretched across the sky, catching a few clouds in their long branches when they drifted by. Duly had seen a lot of interesting homes over her long career, from cloud castles to swamp shacks, but the tree in fort of her was unlike anything she had ever seen before. But, considering her file, the odd new home was the least of her concerns.

Misses a couple of letters there. Hung and front

I thought I saw this sometime after that every episode aired, was it republished?

11680953
There were a few stories like this, one that comes to mind is an HOA story that I forget the name of. I just typed this one up this morning on a whim after checking through some writing prompts I had.

11680941
Thanks for pointing these out! It always surprises me when Word doesn't catch these issues.

11680960
Lol, makes sense.

This was great. I love stories that poke fun at little things like.

Also appreciated the Sunset Shimmer reference, best girl!

That's not an insurance investigator, that's a golpista taking her shot.

Also, what the hay happened seven hundred years ago? Are we talking about a legislative hangover from the not-so-brief reign of Dandelion the Abominable?

Now I'm picturing Equestria's law libraries as fragmented and liberally seeded with cognitohazard memetic land-mines. Old archives of statutes, codicils, and ukases that can literally warp and dominate an unwary law-reader, and turn them into agents of some lich-like legal agenda reaching from beyond the veil.

“
 I’m in trouble, aren’t I?”

“Probably a lot, yeah,” she noted.

Don't fuck with the IRS

Oh dang, I did love how smoothly Twi handled the Want-It-Need-It question. n_n

Thanks! I really loved your little addition to the end. It's a really funny way to tie in Luna and to add that extra little plot twist that can fit in nearly.
I always love it when commenters are able to add on to the story with their own unique spins.

“Yes, well
 I’m afraid these are the less concerning books. For example, you listed, and I quote, ‘A comic book that can suck creatures into the story,’” she read aloud, receiving a more hesitant nod from Twilight.

Seems like fun. I can see why it was made illegal, every foal around would want it.

To be fair, Celestia didn't lie per say about Sunset. In much the same way I can claim to know that a specific comet is somewhere in the universe, I might have well not know where it is at all. Sunset quite literally went into an entirely other universe :moustache:

I feel like Luna would have committed some crimes too (serious jay walking), and Equestria would default to Cadence, but she counts as treason or something with forming her own kingdom -- plus Flurry Heart attempted genocide of crystal ponies, so it would default to Chrysalis since the statute of limitations passed since her invasion or something :unsuresweetie:

Should throw the Cutie Mark Crusaders in prison too.
For knowingly using an illegal love potion.

Hoisted by her own petard.

“Oh? Really? It’s only been three months since I made that claim, I thought it would take longer,” the princess commented idly, placing her book back on the shelf before she trotted out with a hoof out to Duly. “Hi, I’m Twilight. It’s nice to meet you Miss
”

“Noted, Duly Noted,” she replied, accepting Twilight’s hoof with her own as the princess smiled.

Twilight withdrew her hoof awkwardly, disturbed at how this mare had apparently found her greeting worthy of getting noted for whatever she wanted.

Surprised it wasn't tax evasion that ultimately brought down Celestia.

Also the spell that blows up the target and banishes them to the mirror pool, a spell Twilight fired with near reckless abandon at what could have been one of her friends.
also part of the problem is less that Twilight has some of the books its more that the books are on display in a public library easily accessible to even children.

This desperately needs another chapter asap. Its honestly really good and funny.

“You could
 If Luna wasn’t the reigning monarch right now.”

Luna finally wins in the end, and what better way than by default?

Pfft. I love this.

Short, sweet, and ... cute.

The reigning monarch dosn't pay taxes D:<

lets be real, Twilight for all intents and purposes STOLE ownership of the public Library of Ponyville. Honestly how often was it REALLY used as a Library after she moved in? from what little we know of the inside of the place there was not much "Library" left after she moved in.

11682309
Pretty much implied it wasn't really used as proper library in the first place. Ponies never borrowed books! We only ever saw the Crusaders use it as an educational space in Twilight Time.

Wonder if dream walking and love spells are illegal too...?

This is actually perfect because it seems like the type of legal system a cartoon monarchy would have. Yes of course no one is above the law, but as long as my friends are cool with me breaking it, then no problem. And the drama is petty grievance, embarrassment, hubris and misunderstanding :pinkiehappy:

I work in insurance, and I wouldn't need to dig into which books may or may not be illegal before denying the claim. The policies I work with all have exceptions for resultant loss from war and terrorism, of which Tirek's work is possibly both.

11682309
I always found it a little odd that Twilight just moved into the library of all places. Did they ever give a reason for why she was even at the library at all before Nightmare Moon arrived? I remember Pikie Pie throwing a party there, but was Twilight invited to the Library for the party, or did Pinkie just know that Twilight would be there?

"Starlight, you did a lot of bad things, not just to us but to a lot of ponies, but you said you were sorry so we'll pardon you."

11682563
Theoretically, being the only surviving member of the royal family of a place you completely destroyed does make you a foreign power.

Luna: if i knew i only need to have my sister audited, i saved a 1000 years on the moon, huzaah I'm in charge, send celestia to tartarous for her crimes

Lovely display of ne-ponyism here by Celestia!

Tisk tisk. Toollight's lack of common sense shines through again.

Best way to deal with uppity agents and pencil-pushers. Open a portal to an alternate universe behind them, kick uppity agent through, close portal. Anyone asks and you simply say "Nope, no idea where they went."

Silly ponies. Always having to do things the hard way.

11682345
"Ponyville Archive" doesn't have the same ring to it.

love this story

Looks like Twilight, BETTER YELL BELLE!

11684588
I really like the idea of Sweetie Belle becoming a Better Call Saul parody.
