This story is a sequel to Shipping and Handling


Magic is limited only by the strength of the mind and the passion of the heart.

After the events of "Shipping and Handling", young Dinky Doo sets off to begin her first term of study at the most prestigious magic school in Equestria, Celestia's Academy for Gifted Unicorns. The adventures that await her there will exceed even her wildest expectations, and a cast of colorful new characters will be by her side to share in them.

(This story is the sequel to "Shipping and Handling". It's highly recommended you read that one first!
Occurs during Season 3 of the show: After the Crystal Empire but before Alicorn Twilight.)

Chapters (20)

Oh my gosh...

I have a feeling this is going to be amazing.

Oh yes, this is going to be amazing, I can already tell!

And so begins Dinky's adventures at Celestia's School for Gifted Unicorns. We shall await the next chapters with bated breath.

Yes...

It's here.

IT'S HERE!!!

EDIT: Wait. Someone disliked this already?!

So much win!
Loved the book passage :pinkiehappy:

It's finally here!

And here we go! Looking forward to the ride.

YAY! It's here!:yay:
Now, let's jump in and see what trouble Dinky can get herself into.
Edit:
Nice beginning to this new tale :pinkiehappy:

YAAAAAAAAYYYYYY! It's here!

And now, something that has been on my mind since the blog with the title

I anxiously await the next part. :pinkiesmile:

:pinkiegasp: It has arrived...

Time to read!:pinkiehappy:

... I have never heard those two words outside of the Swedish language and quite frankly they sound absolutely ridiculous in English.

Therefor you must be swedish

Yay Dinky~!

Also

Dinky picked up her book again. It was even more beaten now than it was when she received it months before. The cover was blotched with stains, the corners of the pages were bent, and handwritten notes were scrawled in the margins in many chapters

and handwritten notes

Well, it's a promising enough start. I like how Twilight sort of blanked out on the obvious there.She does that a lot in the show so.........

So.... Before reading, Dinky get shipped or what?

This should be awesome! :pinkiehappy:

I'm so happy that a looked at the featured bar today!

I love it!! :pinkiehappy: I have a feeling this is going to be good! :twilightsmile:

yes. YES. TAKE MY YES! TAKE IT!

New story from PRB? With Dinky? Continuation of a favorite fic?
INSTAFAVE.

Yes! Yes! YES! "Shipping and Handling" is one of my all time favorites, and I hated when it ended. I saw this in the featured box and all but fell out of my seat. I cannot wait to see what you do with this and I'm sure it's going to be fantastic.

I have no intention of ever reading this.

But that cover picture is the coolest I've seen.

you’re going to blow them all away up there.”

My initial reaction: :twilightoops: A quick reread: Oh, it says "away"

All that these few pages have done is shownyou the path to follow, and allow you to take those first few halting steps.

Forgot a space...

I really loved the excerpt from the book and had expected for that to be the end of the chapter. I feel like that would have the perfect ending for this intro chapter.

I really feel that this story will be as great(if not better) than S&H. I eagerly await moar!

Ah yeah I'm glad to see this has arrived. Please make more soon. :pinkiehappy:

And we're off on the train to hogwarts.

Instant favourite. Let's get this show on the road.

Order of Operations: Fave, then read.

I'm waaay too excited to be using this font :rainbowlaugh: :pinkiehappy::pinkiehappy::pinkiegasp::yay::rainbowdetermined2::twilightsmile:

Kind of a slow beginning to be honest, but given the nature of the story, to be expected. Can't wait to see what Dinky(Harry Potter) encounters.

Wow. Shipping and Handling was one of my favorite stories ever and this is easily my favorite incarnation of Dinky and Autumn Breeze is the only Pony I could actually believe in shipping Ditzy with, except for the Doctor of course. Looking forward to another grand adventure. :pinkiehappy:

and here we go again

Yeah I know the beginning was slow. After all, nothing new actually happened when you think about it; the chapter ended at the very same moment that chapter 13 of Shipping and Handling ends. It just discussed things the first book didn't, like Dinky's tutoring.

Hopefully once they get to the academy I'll be able to make this more interesting.

Be aware, while this premise simply by nature is kind of Harry Potter-esque, I'm gonna do my best not to directly parody any plot points that it used. Dinky will be at a magical academy, yes, but other than that I hope for the content of the adventure to be as original as possible. Wish me luck on that...

YESSSSSSSSSSSS! Sequel! Time to see what PRB has in store for me this time. :D *gleefully dives back into S&Hverse*

Yes!
Yes!
YES!

Yes, Finally!:yay::yay::yay: I've been waiting forever for this.

So no Sorting hat or house of evil children?

2198226

Nope, no sign of either in the upcoming chapters! (There will be an opening ceremony/feast though. Some things are just general enough that they need to be used :applejackunsure:)

2198309

I can see it now.

:trollestia:Welcome to my school, students.
:ajbemused::rainbowderp: No special school for us?
:trollestia:Nope. Unicorn master race. So get the buck out.

I cannot answer for the author's Swedishness (though I am Swedish), but yes, the phrase "hocus pocus" exists in English and is in no way a specifically Swedish phrase. There is, for instance, the movie Hocus Pocus from 1993 which is most certainly American. Here's more from Wikipedia, because why should you trust me: Hocus Pocus on wikipedia; Hocus Pocus on wiktionary - the origin of the word is similar in Swedish

Otherwise: hejsan på dej! Vi kan ju alltid hoppas författaren är svensk i alla fall!:pinkiehappy:

Yes! An awesome start to a promising story.

Love what you've got up to now, keep it up!

2198797 "hejsan på dig"?

ok nu är jag bara mistänksam om du verkligen är svenst eller inte eftersom ingen (som jag känner i alla fall) säger "hejsan på dig" i sverige.

för helvete mäniska, prata normalt.

oh, och tack för infon

Jag säger i alla fall "hejsan på dig", eventuellt till och med "hejsan på dejsan" till andra människor, men jag är en gammal gubbstrutt jämfört med de flesta bronies (42, senast jag kollade - det är väl ungefär som Carrot Cake eller så...). :coolphoto: Och klaga inte på att andra människor inte pratar "normalt" bara för att de inte pratar som du.:ajbemused: Däremot får du gärna klaga på att jag är en jävla besserwisser, för det var lite ofint av mig att hoppa in och klaga på vad du skrev; författaren kan väl skriva själv, får man anta. Ursäkta!

And now we return to the usual English of the comments; sorry, I'm just trying to prove my nationality here.

Hahaha, to answer the various people discussing it, I'm not Swedish.

In America, Hocus Pocus is sometimes used as just a generic magical phrase, much like "Abracadabra".

Aha! Yes, I've been waiting a while for this one!

2199038 you are now officially the coolest 42 year old swedish brony in the world. im 18 myself and must now beat myself up for offending an elder.

but seriously, you are badass and sorry for the comment. you can greet others in whatever way you see fit

I have soooooo been waiting on this story! If it's anything like Shipping and Handling this is gonna be epic! :eeyup::yay::derpyderp2:
