Well, that was quite feely at the end. It was a good chapter though.
GAH! Stop it with these FEELS! He was in like three chapters, WHY DO I CARE ABOUT HIM, AND WHY CAN'T I STOP CRYING ABOUT THIS?!?!?
Tugs at the heartstrings. No not Lyra.
Finally, something important has at least been brought to the forefront: Soren's continuing struggle with his identity and what it actually means to him. At least now that he's spoken with Luna on the subject, he has something to focus on to resolve this mess.
Sucks that Cal is gone, but I believe Soren will do right by him. He seemed like the warm grandpa that looks out for you and wants what's best for you type of character.
With both of those under his wings, I have a feeling things are looking up (a little) for Soren. Hopefully he can figure out how to ride this updraft for as long as possible, so he can get the most out of it.
Ah.
I got the Displaced reference immediately - I enjoyed that story (and was sad when the sequel got cancelled).
Poor Silver. Things just never do seem to go right for her, do they? First she has to be nice to Aqua, then the prof dies? That's awful.
2611763 Ooops. That capital R is on both me and the editors.
2611830
Shit, man, I didn't even notice the typo. That last line just seemed very poignant to me.
2611853 Oh, lol.
2611864
Well, kudos to you for noticing. Thanks!
2611990
I'm confused. Granted, that's not difficult to achieve.
I'm trapped in a glass box of feels.
I suppose that the good professor knew his time was up, eh?.. I really wonder how that worked. To be honest, it feels like this
is actually more of a full-on title, and that you missed the capitalization on the S. Maybe it's just the impact of the news that he passed that makes it seem so?
I REQUIRE FANART OF SILVER SCRIPT CUDDLING A LUNA DOLL ON A MOUNTAIN OF TITS.

2612016 That actually makes a lot of sense, Last Remaining Son... I think that might be what I had been initially going for with the half-way. My brain is kind of broken.
2612020 Please don't tempt me to vector that...
Step one : Place yourself as a ball on the floor.
Step two : Try to hide.
Step three : Open the dam and let your liquid pride flow.
This chapter was good chapter. Faster publish then most as well. I blame not doing a one-shot now. It also summer soon so its possible there's a bit more time as well. Well depending on age. Idk age so idk if you get more time now or not. Anyways let's dress in black for this next chapter for a great teacher who passed away.
2611594
Maybe not, but now I'm totally gonna start saying "tugs at the Lyras."
Good chapter - I liked the struggle with how to grade Aqua's test. We've all certainly done that "misalign the bubbles" thing, and I think it's incredibly petty when teachers don't award you the points for knowing the right answers - It should be the same amount of docked points if you'd left a question blank, which is essentially what happened.
I think Silver made the right choice, more just because the test was completely unrelated to Aqua's being a rapist than anything. I guess that's the "Applejack" answer, though.
The part at the beginning was really interesting, too - I think it's actually more realistic that issues with being a mare come in waves, since Silver's got so much else going on. Cycling among worries seems to be the most natural for most people.
Didn't foresee old Calcification passing away so soon, but it felt satisfying, in that we got a conclusion to what he was all about.
2612188 It's not like somebody's 'crazy' can come out all at once all the time. That would be incredibly unhealthy/dangerous.
I was actually a bit worried that people would be bothered by her seemingly cyclic bouts of 'Woe is me, for x is wrong with me today' [I'm overdramatising that, I know] but it made sense to me that things would just sort of... hit her randomly. Did her crisis of identity at least make sense?
2612238
Yeah, I thought so - It came around after she kinda forgot about it, which seems to be the way these things go.
Plus it was a believable and sudden "trigger," in that wanting to be human but finding you can't remember what you even looked like would be extremely disturbing; I was upset enough just not being able to remember for a couple weeks what I went as for Halloween last year (a cowboy going as a princess).
The only part that seemed inelegantly abrupt was wanting to use the dream to be human again in the first place. A bit of a lead in would have helped, I think, especially if it riffed off of Discord being turned into a filly, and then Silver gets a bit upset at Warren instead of just dismissing him, all like, "I'm not Discord but you can't just do that to me and think you can get away with it, lemme show you what I really am..." etc. since "being human" doesn't strike me as the first place Silver's mind would go in terms of wishes, just because of the motivations we've been presented with so far.
...Actually, wanting to be human again becoming something that distracts her from her overall mission of mastering alchemy could be an interesting conflict.
The Feels
Nooo! Doc!
I mean, uh...
Nooo! Professor!
there are no words. none. i wont even bother.
Aw...That was really sad... Luna dammit why am I reading this with Bullets and Buckshot by Madhatter in the background... It's ruining the atmosphere....
When did the whole rape.thing happen...? Did I miss it?
2612703 Interlude Chapter II. Skipable naughty scene.
I feel this is becoming a generic HiE. He's going to school in Equestria, yet I feel he kind of has to return to Earth at somepoint.
2612983 There's still another story left for Silver after this one. Only time will tell.
2612032
Consider yourself tempted!
Well THAT certainly doesn't sound like foreshadowing at all!
Great chapter, and by coincidence this started play on my playlist just when i got to last part :0
This is so true, and those are pretty tame considering the insults I toss at my friends, cause you know, League games can get pretty heated.
I just realized what Aqua Regia was referring to. Derp, goes to show how much I remember from reading about two Nobel prizes.
2611830
I thought it was a mistake that the S was not capitalized. Though I see that you now made it a title.
2612013
Er..yeah
Dammit all, this was not advertised as a sad-fic to me! There are no worse feels than surprise feels!
2611893
Failing not to cry. Failing not to cry!
2611612 Ride the updraft. I see what you did there.
2616316 Technically, Poker Night 2 wasn't out when Silver Script went to Equestria. She wouldn't even know about it.
Hm. Since he apparently knew that he was going to kick the bucket soon, might have been better to include some signs that he was nearing death, other than him just looking old. Still though, pretty good chapter.
2618584
Meh. I think it was allright this way. Not everything has to be choreographed for us. In a way I think this is better. Life doesn't really give us all hints as to what is happening even after it does happen. Something like this given the unexpected way that it does prod the story along, I think, gives a good sense that life is proceeding in the way it should... With a hint that we should have seen it coming yet did not.
You continue to write a very engaging story. I think I like the griffon characters in it the most. They are often overlooked in stories. Also, the continuing themes with Silver, especially the build up to what can only be a full-blown magic phobia, have been quite enjoyable to watch.
I hope it isn't too long before the next update.
2625938 I'll probably have the next chapter finished up and out to the editors by later this evening.
2625938 Or tomorrow might also work.

^^ I think you mean public here, not pubic.
Alright chapter. I don't know if you intended to imply in the marking that Aqua Regia was cheating (copying off the answer sheet but was one too high on it, since she was getting 100% otherwise), or if she is actually quite intelligent (also quite possible). I suppose it is a mystery.
I saw the Harry Potter reference in this chapter!
Also may you rest in peace Professor Calcification!
I loved this chapter but when i read abut what happen to Professor Calcification I was like
.






I was so sad and I had to get this song for him
I'm going to miss him and I'm happy that Luna is always there for Silver. And again I wish she was a little bisexual I can't wait to see what happens next.
oh thats so sad poor silver

Am I the only one who imagines that JackSepticEye should be voicing GearAlt? Well... what a sad ending to a chapter... what the-
The Intelligence has been dropped.

Yes, because his voice isn't that deep and doesn't really fit.
