Here to post pony.

Luna is back in Equestria for the first time in 1000 years following the defeat of Nightmare Moon. Celestia intends to bring Luna back to Canterlot on the train, but Luna has never seen anything like one before.

Special thanks to Lunafan1k who edited the story.

Trains make Luna happy.

Edit:Constructive criticism is welcome.

And this explains why she didn't make an appearance when Discord showed up. :rainbowlaugh:

Ha, made me chuckle but not laugh as I though it would, slighty disappointed but still enjoyable and could you imange if Luna was a mortal pony instead of the Goddess of Night? She would have been killed :rainbowlaugh: And the last line...I see what you did there:raritywink:

this is totally gonna get featured

EDIT: its decent enough as a one shot, but it follows the pattern that most featured oneshots do. idk, maybe because it follows the pattern so well it won't get featured. in any case, it is a decent little story that i liked

A funny little "Luna does x" fic. Personally, I would have had Luna get up to more crazy shenanigans, but whatever.

Yeah, I'm kind of aware of that pattern, but really I wrote the story because I love Luna and wanted to write her in an optimistic way. That and it had to be short because it's my first story.

It would be amazing if it got featured but I think that cause I'm greedy.
Edit:Never got featured, people really dislike a silly Luna story being up there.

The longer stories are underrepresented, but that's because they require a lot of investment, at least for me. If I start reading one I can't put it down and much time is lost. Maybe if the site took length into account when calculating stuff? Lunafan1k has a few longer more serious fics that have been buried, I guess it is kind of unfair.

I need to think more and sleep instead of watching this climb charts.

"It's amazing how tough you alicorns are, but even still, I doubt she'll be up and about until at least season 2."
Oh, look what ya did! You broke the fourth wall! It's gonna take forever to fix it now!

<--- Luna's reaction after the train ride

Brilliant! At least she learnt what a tunnel was :rainbowlaugh:

Hahaha loved how she wouldnt be up until season 2 at least

Oh you. a nice silly little story. :twilightsmile:
Not so short that thou couldst avoid misuse of archaic Equestrian, apparently.

"Thou says thine citizens art living prosperously, of this we have yet to investigate."

Thou sayest thy citizens are living prosperously; of this we have yet to be certain.
Thine=yours, not your; art = are for 2nd person singular only. I cannot find a reliable source for the old conjugation 'to be' for the 3rd person plural, so one shall make do with 'are'.

That was awesome! :rainbowlaugh:

LOL! Love it. Perfect explanation for why she didn't re-appear until Luna Eclipsed. Now we just need an explanation for why she didn't appear after that until the season finale.:derpytongue2:

HA, that ending explains everything! :rainbowlaugh:

The moment I read that she was sticking her head out of the train, I knew she was going to end up whacking it on something. :rainbowlaugh:

Lol, I tried hard to work out early modern english grammar, but failed badly. So, I watched some Hamlet and had Luna speak Ye Olde Butcherede Englishe instead. I never expected the story to become this popular and intended to fix it later. Luna's dialogue suffers more than it should from me trying to make something work. At least I found that "Heyday!".

Woot, finished retranslating with this. Hope that's better.

And thanks everybody who likes the story!

Oh Luna :rainbowlaugh:
And by "cab forward locomotive", you don't mean this type do you? If so I'd say Equestria's RR has definitely made a step up! (also it should be an oil burner).

I don't support 1 shots in the feature box (not because of the author, but because ot their simplicity), but this thing was hillarious enough to make it!

THAT ending :rainbowlaugh::rainbowlaugh::rainbowlaugh:

Hm, that "Heyday!" interjection is interesting. I was surprised to find out that (probably) isn't a typo!

Why didn't they take their chariot back to Canterlot?

Celestia tells me it's because the royal guards were tired from bringing everypony back from the Everfree Castle. I bet she just wanted to show off her train, though.
:trollestia:

A bit too referential (the ponies seem to know it's a show), but other than that, funny stuff. That is exactly why you don't ride on top of the train. :pinkiegasp:

:pinkiehappy: Poor Luna, exspecially when she starts itching under that cast.

Oh, Luna. That's my sister.

Hyper lol.

Expected Luna to get covered in smoke inside the tunnel.

I reviewed your story tonight you can find it here

So that's where she went!
Not too keen on characters making blatant 4th wall jokes but I'll let that one slide!

This was amusing! I laughed at Celestia's joke and at her sense of humor in choosing to mess with her sister that way. I also loved Luna's quick inferences about the effects of trains on society! It was a lovely piece and I appreciate Luna's enthusiasm. She silly. :twilightsheepish: So glad she survived!
