FROM THE NOTES OF PRINCESS CELESTIA

Subject: Macintosh incident.
Date: REDACTED-REDACTED

Parallel and Perpendicular universes intersect with our own in some of the most peculiar ways.
In this file, I have listed the offspring involved in this incident.

SUBJECT 1: Sparking Cider.
Parentage: Twilight Sparkle.
Notes:

There appears to be no radical changes in the history with this child. She has, however made references to REDACTED.
I must speak to Luna about the apparent success of REDACTED.


SUBJECT 2: Scarlet Tornado
Parentage: Rainbow Dash.
Notes:

As best I can tell, the divergence in this universe seems to occur during an incident where Applejack was injured during one of Rainbow Dash’s new tricks.
To make up for it, Rainbow Dash was forced to work on the farm, until Applejack recovered.

During this time, it appears that the two fell in love.
Dash’s time in the Wonderbolts Academy seem to have been cut short, due to Lightning Dust’s recklessness nearly killed Big Macintosh.
While Spitfire kicked Lightning Dust out of the Academy, Rainbow Dash refused to return; due to what she felt was Spitfire’s complete disregard for anypony’s safety.

It took an apology from both Soarin and Spitfire to convince Rainbow Dash to return to the academy.


SUBJECT 3: Apple Pie
Parentage: Pinkamena Diane Pie
Notes:

….I have no censored clue how this worked.
I’m getting a drink.

SUBJECT 4: Golden Gem
Parentage: Rarity
Notes:

This timeline appears to diverge shortly after the Grand Galloping Gala.
A depressed Rarity returned to Ponyville, where Big Macintosh offered her an ear, and a shoulder to lean on.

It appears that not all Prince Charmings have to be royalty.

SUBJECT 5: Garden Royal
Parantage: Fluttershy
Notes:

It appears that the two have always been in love, and merely kept it a secret from the others.

Errata
I do not think I have the proper vocabulary to admit how…cliché that seems.

SUBJECT 6: Acey Mac
Parentage: Cheerilee
Notes:

The events of Hearts and Hooves Day resulted in the formation of an actual relationship between Big Macintosh and Cheerilee.

SUBJECT 7: Apple Jam
Parentage: Sweetie Belle
Notes:

As best we can tell, Sweetie Belle’s fillyhood crush on Big Macintosh bloomed into full blown romance.
And Big Macintosh agreed to date her, once she became of age.

Sometimes Romance is found in the strangest of places.

SUBJECT 8: Carson Apple
Parentage: Ditzy Doo
Notes:

It appears that the two began a relationship, due to a blind date set up by mutual friends, sometime after the disastrous Hearts and Hooves Day incident.

Other information from this Timeline seems to point towards REDACTED as the true father of Dinky, resulting in a clash between Big Macintosh and REDACTED.

Other than that, much of the timeline seems similar to our own.

SUBJECT 9: Stratos
Parentage: Cloud Chaser
Notes:

I am uncertain about this.
As best I can tell, it appears that Cloud chaser, Rather than Rainbow Dash is the Weather Team Captain in Ponyville. While Rainbow Dash is still living in Ponyville, she is the second in command, having stepped down due to an incident that apparently resulted in the destruction of several trees in Sweet Apple Acres.

It also appears that Cloud Chaser was selected as the “Perfect Pony” for the Cutie Mark Crusader’s Hearts and Hooves Day incident.

SUBJECT 10: Center Stage
Parentage: Trixie Lulamoon
Notes:

Center Stage appears to be from an alternate universe where Trixie was discovered in the Everfree, shortly after the Ursa Minor incident.
It appears in this universe, Big Macintosh discovered her and nursed her back to health.

There is no evidence of the REDACTED Incident occurring.

Perhaps redemption is found in the oddest of places, and the unlikeliest of ponies.

SUBJECT 11: Apple Cinnamon
Parentage: Spitfire
Notes:

Apple Cinnamon appears to hail from an alternate universe where Rainbow Dash was able to achieve her first Sonic Rainboom, but it appears that several ponies did not witness it.

The Status of REDACTED element bearers are noted below.

SUBJECT 15: Bellona
Parentage: Discord
Notes:

It appears Discord was somehow Redeemed by Big Macintosh, and their friendship blossomed into a relationship.
This may be proof that plan “Flutter On” may be a success.

Errata: I need a ****ing drink to deal with this. Discord a Father?
Never in a million years.

SUBJECT 16: Apple Cake
Parentage: Cup Cake
Notes:

In this universe, it appears that a fire ravaged Sugarcube Corner. Carrot Cake appears to have sacrificed himself in order to save his wife, and his children; Pound and Pumpkin Cake.

Parentage: Princess Celestia
Notes:

This universe is nearly identical to that of Novamac and Midnight Bliss, save that it appears that I, as Corona, escaped first.

SUBJECT 18: Fantasia

Notes:

This universe appears to have swapped the roles of several ponies. Here, Shining Armor and Twilight Sparkle own the Twilight Orchids in Ponyville, while Big Macintosh is captain of the royal guard, and Applejack is part of the Nobility.

Comments ( 85 )

Is the word not 'parentage'?

do you plan to make a sequel or go into these alternate universes?

Redacted? What is this, the SCP foundation?

2575282

Certainly influenced by it.

2575277

Perhaps.
I think I'll make a blog entry to answer questions about the future of this.

Calling for a Sequel and the evident child of Lyra and Mac. Just gotta finish the set and having inter-dimensional children does not fill the void that completely.

"REDACTED"?

I see tia's been hanging out with the docs from SCP (and I'm surprised there isn't a pony in inventory, yet, either...or at least not that I've seen)

Now I'm glad there isn't more of them, given the ratio Celestia is chugging drinks

SUBJECT 29: Apple zom'thing-zom'thing
Parentage:background pony #167... or #169... what'ver
Notes: Howzzcome ziz bottle empty already? I need nutha drink... well, after yeeeeeet nutha kiss-kiss-I-do-I-do, Beeeeg Macs... wait, which one is thizz one again? Did I menchon my bottle izz empty?


Thanks for the charming and funny tale. Hope to see more stories from you in the future

That was an incredibly cute story, and I gotta admit, I got a bit teary eyed when Big Mac couldn't say goodbye to the foals. :pinkiesad2:
Excellent work! Bravo, good sir, bravo!

2575764

There was the wingless Pegasus.

Another fan I know wrote a mock-up for Pinkie.
Granted, it's not canon due to the SCP Foundation's rules.

Great story. Are any of those actually stories? Because some of them sound kind of familiar.

2578262

Only Golden Sweet. She's pretty much canon to my other stories, Nightmare Moon over the Republic, and A Matter of Rules of War.

Other than that, I don't think so.

2576036

SUBJECT 65: Apple Appl..sumptin.
paranta...parennt...mom: Alululululua la or sumpin.

Notes:...why aren't their more kids with me?
howcome?
I'm still pretty, and I still got an ass that won't quit!

(at this point the rest of the text is unreadable, as the page appears to have taken large amounts of water damage.
Presumably, Celestia has spilled her drink on what she was writing.
as best we can tell it appears to be a crude picture of Big Macintosh and Herself preforming the REDACTED position..

Ah, that was a fantastic story, I loved every moment. Also, I'd totally read fics about just all of these pairings, haha! So good. :pinkiehappy:

Just a reminder People, I made a Journal Entry, that lets you ask anything pertaining to this fic and the future of it.

He finally discovered the downside of being the Ponyville Bicycle.... I gotta read more of this later.

The story was quite funny and a great spoof on just how many Mac ships there are. Not to mention it does something with Lyra other than just shipping her with Bon Bon, which is always nice.

There are two issues I had with it. The first is I noticed a number of spelling or grammar mistakes despite the proofreading. The second issue is I think it went on a little too long. The premise is great, but it can only sustain itself for so long before it starts getting tiring, and I think it went on just a little too long.

Still, these are minor issues compared to what was a really good concept for a story and pretty good execution of it.

I had a lot of fun reading this fic. My brain was close to exploding near the end (so many shipfics condensed into one (0-0) ). Adorable I think is a good word for this fic, it was feel good a slight chuckle here or there kind of fic.

I'd do a bit more in depth review of it, but I'm not really in a reviewing mood tonight so I'll just give my score

eight mustaches :moustache::moustache::moustache::moustache::moustache::moustache::moustache::moustache: out of ten
A fun fic with cute moments, that had an entertaining premise at it's center.

Good Job :derpytongue2:

P.s. Out of curiosity, did you write the last chapter first? Looks like it would come in handy with all the characters bounci'n around.

2788179

No.

That came last, but I had a general outline of the different kids at the start.

3037291

Nova is a lot of fun to write.

As for your favorites... Well, just keep reading.

3049075

If I was in his position, I would be too embarrassed to even show up.

An ambitions yet successful story. I'm putting on my ever changing top 10 list on my user page. I think this one a keeper.

3049176

Now that is high praise.
Thank you kindly.

2449292

Let's not even get into Prince Artemis and Anarchy Apollo.

This comment is older than my account, and I still feel compelled to respond to it.

It was a Sailor Moon reference; there are two moon cats as major characters, the female is named Luna, the male is Artemis.

3161110

I'm aware of that.
It still doesn't excuse Anarchy Apollo, though.

3161219
...Yeah, I have to admit, Anarchy Apollo is pretty silly.

Who's Queen Umbra?

3210835

Yes.
I've also seen her called Queen Oscura.

3273310

Well, after Cadance managed to overthrow both Celestia and Luna, She made the Elements of Harmony ruling Nobles.
Among them was Firefly, and Blueblood's ancestor.

Flashforward to the Present day, Lyra is Cadance's student.
This version of Blueblood doesn't have the "My Aunt is the Ruler!" to fall back on, and "My Cousin rules Equestria" sounds much less....impressive. so as a result he's much nicer and cheerful.

Dash on the other hand is a bit of a rebel. Ever sense Firefly has been on the ruling council, their children has followed in her footsteps.
Dash doesn't.
In order to stay away from her studies she frequently spends time with the younger children of other nobles, taking care of them.

The Three were sent to Ponyville by Cadance: Lyra to loosen up, Blueblood to fill in as Mayor, and Dash snuck along with them to avoid more of her "Destiny".

Mrs. Cake is more-or-less the same as her canon counterpart, as is Bonbon.
Flitter is sort of a weirder thing. Cloud Chaser joined the Military, while Flitter is a Nurse-in-training at Ponyville.

Interdimensional time travel works in mysterious ways.

Sir :moustache:, you are a GENIUS!!!!!

Your story has been reviewed! This is where it is!

Comment posted by websterhamster deleted Feb 3rd, 2014

3889792 Dagnabbit! I officially qualify for Dumb Pony of the Year Award!

I saw your comment and thought I'd double-reviewed and deleted the review!!!! :pinkiegasp:

I'll get it back up pronto, don't worry.

3889815 Lol its no worries, I think since I have nothing else to do when I saw you put a review I was like "YES, I CAN BE A COOL ADMIN AND DO SOMETHING" I might've stole your thunder a bit sorry :twilightblush:

Oh thank god for this last chapter, I was having so much trouble keeping all the kids straight towards the end.

Love this story, got a lot of laughs out of it especially some of the Granny Smith moments like when she asked if Applebloom had a coltfriend. I also laughed at Twilight's masterful plan to launch the foals into space and Acey Mac's conversation with Cheerilee asking if she could be a princess.

Well I'm gonna' get started on reading your sequel.

I have just finished this story and I have only one statement for it. This reminded me of Fire Emblem: Awakening, and that is not a good thing.... that is a FUCKING AWESOME thing! :rainbowkiss:

You have earned my favorite, dear author.

Golden Sweet hails from Universe REDACTED, where Discord has become a force for good, while my sister and I succumbed to the darkness within us.

*Celestia continues*...And while I can see Luna totally falling into darkness, I think that's kinda stupid in my case since I totally have no darkness in me at all! Now, I know ponies are totally gonna talk about, like, that one time 759 years ago when I dropped the Sun on a griffon city and turned it into giant glassified bowl as a warning to the rest, but SERIOUSLY!! They were EATING PONIES!!! What would anypony have done if they showed up to try and bargain for the release of their beloved subjects taken in a raid only to find said subjects ROASTING ON SPITS WHILE THE GRIFFONS PLAYED WITH THEIR ENTRAILS!! THOSE DAMNED BEAKIES ARE LUCKY I DIDN'T EXTERMINATE THEIR ENTIRE BARBARIC SPECIES!! *paper seems a bit scorched below this point*

*Celestia dampens down the flames licking around her* Erm... better remember to redact that later.

:trollestia::trollestia::trollestia::trollestia:

The Carrot Top of this universe appears to work under Macintosh on the Sweet Apple Collective.

...so, like, that time when the Apple Family was the Borg. :applejackconfused::eeyup:

:trollestia:

PS: This is one of those stories I just have wayyyyy too much fun with! :pinkiecrazy:

A very enjoyable read. Thank you.

4583835

the LyraMac specifically, or just the fact that it's a Lyra/Big Mac ship that doesn't involve LyraBon or FlutterMac?

I was kind of hoping for something like Big Mac and Lyra with a newborn foal in the final chapter, oh well.
