"Fluttershy, was it?" Lauren spoke to the shy mare, who tried to hide behind her mane the moment she was spoken too.
Aww, cuteness overload indeed. The queen giggled inwardly before moving up to the butter colored pegasus. Fluttershy looked like she wanted to disappear into the ground, which hurt Lauren. Was she really that intimidating because she was so much bigger than anyone else? Regardlss, the alicorn of writing (authors?) continued her approach until she was right in front of the mare. Carefully Lauren extended one of her wings, wrapped it around the smaller pony and pulled her closer. With her other wing, Lauren slowly stroke down Fluttershy's back.
"There, there, no need to be afraid." she cooed motherly. Need. To. Suppress. Squeal. She's just too cute. Oh, why did I make her so cute. I hope Luna and Celestia won't be jealous.
Really Faust? Now you actually start thinking about them as if they're your daughters?
Fluttershy in the meantime relaxed inside Lauren's grasp. For once she got to experience what her animal friends normally did. Slowly Fluttershy brought her face out from behind her mane, looking up at Lauren like a cute little animal. From a former humans perspective she was a cute little animal.
The others looked at the scenery with various dumbfounded expressions, except for Pinkie Pie who kept smiling. Lauren kept doing the gesture for a little more, until she was sure that Fluttershy had fully calmed down. "Feeling better?"
"Y-yes." came the meek reply from the pegasus.
"Well then Fluttershy" Lauren let go of said mare, but still stayed close to her "why don't you tell me a bit about yourself?"
The others shifted a bit in their positions, so they were sitting (more or less) in a circle again.
"W-well, I take care of a lot of animals in Ponyville." she started explaining. The alicorn's hope to hear something she didn't know quickly disappeared after the first line. But then again, what else had she been expecting? Animals were her life.
"I let them stay in my cottage, take care of them...nothing special."
The alicorn couldn't help but snort. "Nothing special? I think this says otherwise." she pointed at Fluttershy's cutie mark. "You shouldn't be so hard on yourself. Living with animals sounds very exciting, but I guess it's not easy taking care of....how many animals are we talking about?"
"Oh, well, half of them actually don't stay in my cottage, they just live around town or maybe in White Tail Woods. Goodness, I never really counted them."
"Sounds like a lot."
"You can bet on that!" Rainbow Dash zoomed in front of Lauren, surprising the author a little. "She's got like a ton of animals at her place and looks after each of 'em, like they're her foals or something."
Fluttershy blushed at the praise.
"Really?" Lauren faked her surprise as best as she could. "Now I have to see how you live. I always wanted to have a dog, but my mother was allergic against dog fur. And afterwards I just didn't have the time to take care of one."
"Oh that's too bad." Fluttershy commented.
The newest/oldest alicorn in the meantime didn't notice the mistake she made. She had mentioned her own parents, ergo Celestia's and Luna's grandparents. The thing was neither of them ever met their grandparents and didn't even know that they existed, although it was only logical. Still, they would have some questions for their mother, later as soon as the three were alone again.
Seeing that despite her efforts Fluttershy still wasn't much of a talker to strangers, Lauren tried to hold a conversation with one of the other ponies, namely Applejack.
"Ah swear, that li'l filly gets herself in more trouble than RD and that's saying somethin'."
"Hey!"
Lauren giggled, after hearing stories about the crusaders, even she didn't know about. One particular being where Sweetie Belle tried to give Applebloom a new haircut. It didn't end so well.
"I suppose your sister sees you as her role model, Rarity." Lauren commented after hearing the story of the haircut. Come to think of it, wasn't one of them supposed to get her cutie mark as a hairstylist? Oh right, no. That was Babs.
"It's not that I don't feel honored." Rarity bit her lower lip. "It's just that sometimes, she can be a tad too enthusiastic at times."
"Kids will be kids and they should enjoy being young, while they can." Lauren giggled. "Why I remember the time Luna and Celestia had their little prank war going on, they accidentally burned each others mane and dyed my fur a deep black. I couldn't reverse the effect until the ambassador of the dragons arrived. I think it worked to my advan....tage..." the alicorn trailed off, as this time a set of pictures came along with the words she said.
The princesses were torn between embarrassment, happy that their mother regained even more of her memories and worry, because the queen was rubbing her temples with both hooves, obviously experiencing a headache.
Wh-what is this? This looks like Celestia and Luna....only younger and...they're charging up their horns and then...I try to interfere...this feeling of...that is magic...their magic, they accidentally used on me....ARGH! Lauren groaned as her headache was starting to get worse. In less than a moment, Celestia and Luna were beside their mother, each asking if she was alright.
"I think...I need to go to the bathroom for the moment." the former human stated. As quickly as possible she was escorted there with her daughters flanking her on each side. When they arrived in front of the door, she insisted on going in alone. Although a little hesitant, the princesses complied to their mothers wishes and left her alone inside.
After some fiddling with her hooves, Lauren awkwardly managed to spray some water into her face. It felt kind of weird getting her fur soaked. It was like she was wearing some wet clothing around the facial area.
"What's going on?" she mumbled to her reflection. "You're Lauren Faust, an author. You write stories for little children, cartoon stories. You have a husband named....oh dear, Craig." How could I forget about you?! Oh, he must be worried sick already! Needless to mention Lauren's mood dropped immediately. What would happen if she didn't find a way back? What if she was stuck here with no way of even calling her husband one final time, leaving him to wonder for the rest of his life what happened to her?
"No, I can't just throw in the towel. How long have I been here, a few days? Plus I managed to get here somehow, meaning there should be a way out of here. If I play my cards right, I can convince Celestia and Luna to help me find a way back, maybe I can connect it to the mirror. And those "memories" I can sort out along the way. I just hope it won't take centuries for them to find a way back. Maybe I should start studying magic just as obsessive as Twilight does? Yeah, me and magic, I can already see the chaos coming from a mile away.
...
Chaos...
Dimension?"
"And one of the guests almost banished a pony into another dimension!"
"Discord!"
I needed to cut things short, because I won't have time to write on Sunday. I promise next chapter will be longer. Cross my heart, hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my OW!!! eye....
Quite Hilarious keep it up!
Man this story is going to be one of the best of the best
But i really hope that she stays in Equestria because you know Luna and Celestia are so happy
Maybe if Lauren can get her Husband from the other world everything might be alright, right?
I'm almost expecting Discord to be one of her nephews or something.
6239866 ...Don't give me ideas. Don't give me those F*****G ideas!!!!!! Pleeeeeeaaaaaase!
I love it sooooooo much
6239870 You know you like them.
I expect Faust actually is the Alicorn...she just happend to lived her life as a human with some weak connection to Equestria so she can create the show through bit and pieces...
C'mon, Lauren! Asking Discord for help? You helped create him! You know how likely it will be that his 'help' will turn out to be nothing of the kind!
Where is lauren faust's husband?
6239992 AND THEN HE EXPLODES BECAUSE YOU MENTIONED HIM! And it's all your fault Faust is crying, you meany.*glares at you, then smiles*
6240023 When i see Lauren Faust fiction, i always say. where is her's husband. but this is 5 time. Anyway, Faust is really miss her husband in bed. Ya know? Love and hug.
Now she alone. DO SOMETHING ABOUT LOGIC!
P.S: bad english - grammar.
Funny how I thought of Shuma-Gorrath instead of Discord.
Time to take a break from marvel.
Looking forward to the next chapter.
A lot of chapters are unedited. You sure you don't need a temporary editor? Like me?
6240107 Well, I'm very sorry about my bad grammar. Not one of my strong suites.
Well, well! I follow...
Damn, a lot of people are reading this right now.
6239992 Plot Twist he's Discord.
Isn't Discord still imprisoned? Cause I'm sure Twilight doesn't have wings yet........
6239917 that's what I'm guessing. Whatever happened to her sent her to Earth and she forgot who she actually was
Faust is the alicorn of creation. Her inkwell cutie mark represents her power to write the laws of physics and reality and what-not.
Hmmm... This is going to be awkward. I can only imagine the interaction between her and Discord later on...
6240862 ya sure?
6239917
Which means she had to get there somehow, which means she can return and bring Craig to meet his... daughters-in-law.
Totally not awkward at all.
6240471 there WAS a season where twilight didnt have wings and discord was good aka season 3
6241192 Oh, that season
6241117 Prove me wrong.
6241208 Well it IS an inkbottle for one. But who can prove that Lauren (alicorn) created that world? It WOULD be 'funny' to see her defy logic and stuff.
But taking it so far? it seems a bit too much...
She might have created the 'standard-rulez' of Equestria - here I talk about the Alicorn--
Her Cutie Mark might represent THAT! You know being a 'kinda' Moses(?) for the ponies.
Uniting them and shit!?
yeah thatz my opinion.
6241282 Well for one thing, she didn't unify the three pony races; the lieutenants (did I spell that right?) of the rulers of the original tribes did as seen in the Heaerths Warming Eve episode. Also, I really can't see Fausticorn as a Moses figure in the MLP:FIM universe (that would be a unicorn with two stone tablets for a cutie mark). Finally, Faust is generally regarded as the mother of Celestia and Luna, who are potentially goddesses in the pony-world, and nine times out of ten that would mean that their parents are deities as well. Hence, it's not impossible that Faust "wrote" Equestria and the rest of the world into existence.
I like this.
Oh dear.....
6241377 ...meh back to reading
DISCORD!!!
6242084
Yeah, he is probably involved.
What's Faust to Discord I wonder.
A fellow comic reader!
Oh. So far it is very interesting. Poor Lauren Faust.
But yet, there is a lot of fun things to do with the author of the show inside of it. And the fact that you make her the queen, mother of Luna and Celestia is a very interesting idea ; with all of the memories thing. Wonder what will come out of this.
6247175 ....Cake?
6247874 Does it comes with a cup of tea ? 'cause if it does, I want the cake !

6249498 John?
6299917 who?
6301759 Like, who's John(at this point I can only think John Egbert, but that's almost definitely not who you're going for)
6304413 Lol, I forgot about my Discord is john comment, No I was saying Discord being John D lennce (I can't spell his name) being Q, being discord or something like that.
6306053 Oooooh, John De Lancie?
