Soothing Dusk

I was just about to ask if this means that my story is canon to this timeline :rainbowlaugh:

Interesting start. Looking forward to seeing how this goes

It is the sequel to the story we collaborated on for the holidays, and I did say it was based on an AU of The Odd One. Seemed appropriate to make some reference to it.

Oh boy this may not end well for Thorax.

Maybe. They were bringing in the rail after all.

I can't believe I didn't find this already! I can't wait to see what happens!

This will definitely be interesting. I hope Twilight and the others can manage to keep a lid on things

Good job at wrangling that crowd, Twilight. Thorax, I think you were very brave!

That went very good. Thorax and twilight did a good job handling the crowd.

It's pretty accurate if it's based on DnD, you did a good job!

Vigilant would like them better if they gave him coffee

Guard pony still want black wakey wakey bean juice

Aww, Amber seems adorable! I can't wait to see what questions are asked

Can't wait for more! The thestrals are nice, I like them

We ate breakfast with vigor, everypony ready to eat hearty in preparation for a new day. Amber asked why my dish was served separate from everypony else, and when informed of the extra ingredients, asked for a sampling. I offered a small bit of the fruit salad and she became quite enamored with it, and then quite enamored with Vigilant.

:rainbowlaugh:

Fun cupcake-centric chapter! Loved seeing Pinkie interact with Amber, Thorax, and Vigilant

I always assumed the painting was made by changelings (Mirage seemed to be an important enough drone to earn that honor) and loaned to the school along with the talisman. Your theory works too, and it'd be interesting to find out who made it and in which context.

Also, you're not paying attention to tense consistency again.

Really? I could've sworn I went back through and fixed everything.

I went back through and (hopefully) fixed them.

At a glance, there are still a few, plus I caught an instance of Thorax being referred to in third person rather than first person somewhere around the painting reveal. (The episode is called A Matter of Principals, btw.) I'm not in the mood to do another detailed proofreading right now.

AJ should have also pointed out that when earth ponies do the pruning and harvesting, they're infusing their magic back into the trees and fruit. :ajsmug:

Very good chapter, I like the lesson he taught Dashie (and that Soar and Thunder were nice enough to speak with her afterwards)

Aw, poor Vigilant, and poor you. It's okay, bees make me nervous too

Well, good thing Vigilant had that not-epipen on standby just in case, and I'm sure some changes will have to be made in future handling of the hives. Glad Mac's okay

It's not actually an epipen. He was taught how to correctly measure and administer epinephrine. Epipens don't exist in this universe atm.

11776186
Ah, I see! Well, still good thinking on his part, glad Big Mac's okay

A few eager hands shot up, and Miss Cherilee chose a filly with pink and purple mane.

Pardon me, but... hands? I do believe that ponies usually have hooves, good sir. :twilightsmile:

To quote Charlie from the Hazbin Hotel...

ha ha, oops:twilightsheepish:

He wasn't in EqG. Personally, I think the color scheme that makes most sense is the one he has by default at the given moment (that is, the black one for pre-reformation and colorful for post-reformation), though I'm not sure how to explain the change in color scheme from pre- to post-reformation in a way that would be convincing to the humans he interacts with, if the story takes him to the human world again after the reformation.

11867564
The story encompasses what happens to him in one week in Ponyville, and I don't plan on having reformation take place in this story, so post-reformation doesn't really play a role here. I only mentioned it because I was sorta spit-balling ideas on his human look.
