I'll be honest, I don't ship Twilestia. But this fic caught my eye, and I just had to follow it. I loved the first chapter, and can't wait to read more. :twilightsmile:

I mean it more in overall view. You have 17 stories, 5 completed and 4 from them is one-shots. If you continue like that, than you don't be able complete them all. My recommendation is to write one or two stories at once and start new when you complete it, or just write a one-shots. Anyway I like your stories.:twilightsmile:
You are a good but impatient writer.

Amazing story! A very sweet one too. Can't wait for more chapters!

5760018 Ah, yes. He is truly a god among men.

... Are you sure you're not a boy?

5760694
Well I could ask my husband... *giggles* yeah i'm certain

5760700 Sorry. I tend to make stupid jokes sometimes.

Quickly added to my fav's . Made me laugh in chapter one , If this is just chapter one . Then the rest will if following statics should be better .

5760715 Hey Foals, your story got featured again

5758739 I know I heard that from somewhere before, but I can't remember what it is from...
mind reminding me?

I like this story so far hope to read more soon as well as Celestia's Twilight and Mother:twilightsmile:

Need to go read more TwiLestia stories now. Can't wait for the next chapter! :twilightsmile:

Normally I dont read stories like this. But I gave it a chance and I'm pleasantly surprised. This was a sweet chapter and I cant wait to see more. Take my Like and my watch

Cute, spot on-Celestia like always, and the icing on the cake:

After a few moments, Twilight Velvet beamed at Night Light. “You owe me twenty bits.”

:twilightsmile::trollestia:<- We need a Trolvet face.

Next chapter the reasons will be explained... probably while Celestia softly bangs her head on her desk or wall ^^

Liking that last bit.

and now the story really begins

the clock ticked its last tock as e became frozen in time together

you're missing a 'w' there

Absolutely loved it, Foals. Just a few errors to note:

fromfinallybeing

Missing a space between the words here.

adorable,if overpowered,filly.

Need a space after each comma.

So cute, like always. It's always nice to just have good things happen to characters.

last tock as e became

Little mistake.

“What do you mean, ‘we have to be married in one week’?”

The transition from cute to funny was great.:rainbowlaugh:

I have but one question:

Abigail?

Why dost thou tease us with thine cliffhanger, author why! :fluttercry:

I have to wonder if that was Twilight of Celestia at the end, I'd probably say Celly since the description and all.

Also my bet is on some stupid traditional law about marriage.

“Twilight Abigail Sparkle… will you marry me?”

Abigail? That's ADORABLE. :rainbowlaugh:

I suppose the simplest way to handle the "walk through fire," part is that part isn't very specific. A low temperature alcohol fire set to only be a few inches high and thick is one option. I also note it only says "without the help of a spell," the tech level of Equestria is pretty consistently portrayed as mid 1930's to early 1940's a fireproof asbestos suit is well within the pony tech level and isn't magic.

How long before it dawns on Celestia that, according to the way things are described here, she has to undergo the three trials as well? She is, after all, marrying an alicorn princess.

hi hi

Twilight could probably borrow Applejack's fireproof boots, but if friendship is magic, would getting help from a friend be considered a spell? :raritywink:

Question: Why doesn't Celestia have to do the trials? Twilight is an alicorn princess that was asked for her hoof in marriage, which fits within the law, meaning Celestia would have to do these trials too.

Have no fear ^^ Luna is going to notice this fact right before the spell is cast.

1: It's not even possible to do a background check on Celestia, and barring Luna Twilight is the foremost expert on Celestia to begin with. We can consider this covered.
2: Celestia walking through fire. ... REALLY? Covered.
3: It's a body-switch spell, Celestia will be Twilight and Twilight will be Celestia. Covered.

She is.

5899183
Hahaha, that was my first thought as well.


Also, 5899395, there is an unnecessary (or at least I assume it is unnecessary) break in this line:

Twilight to shook her head. "I don't even question it anymore, and Tia, I could spend the rest of eternity studying Pinkie Pie and I still don't think I'd understand her. Now back to this law. It
seems that the one week thing isn't too big of a deal since Pinkie Pie is in charge of it, but how deep does this background check go?" She couldn't help her voice squeaking just a little bit at the idea of somepony getting too deep into her closet of skeletons.

And it might be a matter of personal taste, but the saying (at least over here) is 'numero uno' (as in the spanish for 'number one'), having 'number uno' just looked a little weird to me.


Also, squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! Another update.

I don't remember that they official anounced their weding. So until they anounce it officialy they have lot of time to plan.
And we mustn't forget that in this case it was Celestia that asked Twilight to marry her. So it should be Celestia that must go through the trials not Twilight.
Another question is if the law works for two princesses or in case the princess is the one asking.
Swaping bodies? Realy? In the first chapter we saw Celestia changed like unicorn. So why not use simple illusion spell? And we mustn't forget that swaping bodies is nonsense. Both beings have different number of neurons in different position. It is impossible to swap memories between two brains without damaging or losing some information. And there is still the killing of original mind. They said that it is simple spell but the oposit is true. The caster must be able to copy billions of positions of neurons and than copy it to billions of neurons that doesn't have the same structure and number.
The only way it could work is to conect their brains to the other body without changing anything. The mind would be still in original body but would control the other body. So there woud be no swaping of minds only redirecting of control. For strong willed and magic mares like Celestia and Twilight it shouldn't be difficult to reconnect back to their body.

It even included the idea that it was possible to turn a pony into a manticore against their will, and that wasn't even among the worst spells.
That's nothing new for Twilight. She has good experience in turning ponies or animals into something against their will.
