Based off of this Comic from doubleWbrothers
The beginning of the Daughter Starlight Timeline
Starlight Glimmer caused some troubling problems with Twilight and her friends. What past caused this pony to go down such a path? How did Twilight fix such a horrible past to make this pony better?
Check out the sequel
I loved this story. I can't help but feel that the Mane 5 's initial reactions to Starlight are reflective of the fandom's current divisive opinion regarding her characterization and reformation. If so kudos to you. If not well, still a great fic in my opinion.
Huh. Didn't expect the direction you took this story, and that's a good thing. Twilight becoming starlight's mom is an interesting concept, though I'm unsure what consequences that would have.
Now to reiterate belated1truth's statement, you captured the Fandom's reactions perfectly. I loved that moment.
Overall, good job. It was a pleasant read.
Wow -- a grammar error in the title? That's never a good sign...
6740331 An oversight. These thing happen to the best sometimes. At least you pointed it out before a week pasted. I'm thankful for that.
Any chance for a multichapter story following the future events in this universe? It would make for a great story!
6741779 Chances are at 100% possibilities
Just out of curiosity, was this based off of this particular comic?

6744072 That'd be the exact one!
Congratulations, Starlight Glimmer, you're the new Nyx
I was wondering when someone would make a story based on that comic.

OW, MY SANITY.
Welp. The sad thing is, I'd actually buy that explanation way more than the actual one, slightly silly though it is. (I mean, c'mon it's doubleWbrothers...)
You should put this in of those "Twilight becomes a mother" groups. Should help this story pick up some likes, and it's unique storyline is pretty compelling. Just imagine Twilight's parents and everyone else's reactions.
OK that was brilliantly done have a mustache
I'm so pleased to see somebody turn that comic into a fanfic!
6750206 i really want a sequel for this story
Twilight may have done something good..... Something that takes a great deal of sacrifice. But.... I can;t help but feel that her actions are wrong somehow.... That her manipulating the time-stream in such a way.... That her slowly reforming Starlight for years in the background.... It feels.... Wrong... It feels like Twilight just performed an act of a god.... All right... I'll say that isn't a problem, but I can;t help but throw up a little. Maybe it's because I'm too much of a rebellious quack to actually accept this.
Oooh, okay, I get it now. Starlight getting 'new memories' in the past wasn't new memories at all. It was Twilight's memory spell collapsing because it had served it's purpose. And thus a stable time loop was formed. This... actually works, well done.
6752331 Thanks. I prefer to cover all my bases before ending a story.
Well, I'll be, this makes so much sense it hurts...
Amazing story To be honest if I were Twilight I would be brought filly! Starlight back to the present and pray this didn't destroy the future, or give the Doctor a double heart attack.
That's what the show needs for season 6
I'm really glad you turned that great comic into a story and a good one too. Well done, have a fav.
Nice work, well done.
6818691 So... Facing a villain every four episodes according to our time? That'll only happen when the Earth stops spinning.
I half want this to be actual show canon, honestly. Even that DoubleW comic was kinda sweet. Which is odd, because usually those comics are darker than a black hole.
7073984 what does Donald Trump's heart have to do with this?
7229204 Man, that's racist. What do you have against orange people?
7229364 nothing I love the umpalompa's, it's the FAKE orange people I don't like the.
7229471 Maybe so, but I hate lying c**ts more. Trump 2016.
Wat?
Are there any chances we can see Twiight actually BEING a mother?
7468926 Ever read 'Past Sins'?
7493784
Yeah. I helped fund a physical publishing of the book. Why?
7493786 Oh. Just pointing out a story but it seems stupid now I re-read your comment.
I always preferred the comic over the canon ending. I mean it was much more hearfelt! Twimom helping out a poor lonely filly is just the best idea I have ever read in a comic!
Cute!
AAAAAAAAAAAH, THIS STORY IS A THING. MUST READ.
Ahem. Seriously, I loved the fuck out of original comics, and there's a story inspired by it. I think I can die happy now.
UPD: Ok, I'll be honest, this was eh in terms of writing. On the other hand, the memory block is a very nice touch. Nevertheless, D'AWWWWWWWWWWW
Oh yeah Spike will fill Rarity in later. Fill her up nice and good. Fun story
I loved the story!! Realy great job!!!
Then it turns out nothing was actually changed, this a predestination paradox all along.
i hope this is actually about her growing up with Twilight.
I still hope this isn't giving Spike an execuse to date Rarity but maybe rather a different dragon.
However I thought that this maybe makes me enjoy him more in a story.
not sure what to think of this, it could be interessting, but I heard once a version where she didn't had to outgrow them.
To me and some others it still looks like this is a pretty real possibility. I think this was interessting even if I hoped for Starlight to get transformed into a filly.
LOL-Very nice here!
Now this is how season 5 should have ended.
I can imagine Starlight just standing there with some sort of bored expression on her face while the Mane 5 fought with each other.
8674340
someone needs to draw that
8797791
You’re right, someone should.
I honestly prefer the comic to this fic, but that's partly because of the adorable art. Still, this was decent enough.
That comic would have fixed everything. Great fic!
If this was the actual ending to season 5,
I would have applauded the writers for taking this approach.
But then we wouldn’t of got the episode I like to call,
‘Preservation vs Gentrification.’
NO WAY!!!! NOOO WAYYY!!! THERE IS A FANFIC ABOUT IT!!!
WHY WASN'T I INFORMED!!!!
