It's a fun idea. While I don't necessarily want it to be taken too seriously, after some consideration and some points raised by others when I knee-jerk called it my new fanon, I like the comic.
Uh oh. Someone else is using 'Stargazer' as a name now too? This could get confusing. I'll have to figure out some way of telling us apart.
For the record, I'm the Stargazer from Ponychan (for example, http://www.ponychan.net/chan/art/res/23052.html )and have been since at least February, and I post here as Stargazer from time to time as well. Not saying I somehow own the name or anything silly like that. Just wanted to give a head's up.
That was my first thought when I saw Boast Busters. TGAPT and NMM had such a similiar modus operandi. Wonderful fanon and until season 2 nothing is set into stone.
Until we see a pony disquse themselves as another Pony in the series, we have to call this off I'm afraid.
Granted, Twilight might eventually try something like this to help one of her friends out. Some sort of the "Being in 2 places at once" sort of deal...
That, or Zecora's knows how to brew Polyjuice Potion.
I'd like it if Luna kept a bit of an edge in season 2. She got pissed off enough at Celestia to turn into an evil superbeing with her own war gear, so it wouldn't seem OOC to me if she still had a slight spiteful streak now all is forgiven.
Luna could just be trying to cover her tracks. Who would suspect a pony to be the same pony they just tried to disprove? That or Sethisto got the commercial email before this comic.
I like it. Whether I like this being fannon or not, I'm sure this will end up making great stories in the future.
Please give me a moment while i pick up my jaw from the floor
Sir, you just spawned a huge batch of ideas... Like what now...is SpitFire actually Gilda in disguise o_O?(they have the same voice actors) then again none possed magical abillities
Is Trixie actually Zecora in Disguise? or the other way around?
Then again i think only Alicorns should be able to shapeshift...
Well time to make someone shapeshift Celestia...but i can barely find any side-characters....perhaps background ponies could work too K
wait a sec. Then Twixie and Twiluna are one and the same? YESSSSS. Also, another fic that this would send to all kinds of paradoxical hell; "Tonight We're Gonna Party Like It's 999"
I kinda like the idea for what it does for Luna's personality. I don't much like the moe Luna purity sue that so many people like, I could support a hammy prankster.
Me, I've always liked Luna as a bit of an artist and trickster. Bookish Abacus Luna is cute and all, but it doesn't quite fit my idea of a moon goddess.
@Norwest No, it just converts all Twixie into Twiluna.
@Geldon Yetichsky If by crescent moon you mean streamer of magic sparkles. Seriously, look closely. There is no moon on Trixie's ass.
*head explodes and implodes and explodes and implodes*
Well now that my head is back on, this does make sense as Celestia may have been trying to show her that her self-centeredness is what caused everypony to hate her a thousand years ago.
There really WAS a Great and Powerful Trixie, only she NEVER ACTUALLY MET Twilight Sparkle or ever been to Ponyville, with the Trixie who DID actually being Luna-in-disguise? (With the real Trixie being just as haughty (if not more so) than Fake-Trixie was).
@NotAGoodUsername360 Hey, that reminds me: Why the hay hadsn't somepony written a Supernatural crossover where Pinkie is a trickster that enjoys poetically killing troublemakers in the style of MLP fanfics?!
Seriously, look at Supernatural's description of trickster gods: IT FITS PINKIE PIE TO A T.
Even so, it is disturbing how easily the producers could devastate the fandom by making this canon. All those Trixie fics– *fwoosh* –just like that. And it could conceivably work. This is mind-blowing.
Celestia is basically a pony goddess so luna has just as much magical ability maybe enough to alter her appearance and maybe even disguise her mark I play dnd a lot and sometimes gods like to throw random things at their subjects to teach them things "testing" them Luna troll'n every pony was actually a test to see how they would react to a big loud mouth and luna being behind most of the problems in Equestria would explain how celestria seems to know everything before it happens. And it fits her charactor She is the moon rising every night shadows and stuff like that seems to fit her personality.

ReplyDeleteNice!
ReplyDeleteOki Doki Loki!
ReplyDeleteWut...
ReplyDeleteMy Brain no working today, wut just happen?
This comic, it... it cannot be true... THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE!
Love it! Celestia isn't the only prankster in the family!
ReplyDeleteare the cutey mark really the same? I never looked.
ReplyDeleteOh god, it makes sense!!!!
ReplyDeleteWas I the only one who thought something else at the *Clop Clop Clop* ?
ReplyDeleteThat would explain so much... put a damper on all the Twixie stories, though.
ReplyDeleteHoly crap that actually MAKES SENSE O.O
ReplyDeletePanel 5 is kinda scary out of context.
ReplyDeleteMind = Blown....
ReplyDeleteIt does make sense! Although the cutie mark isn't identical they both share a crescent moon as the base.
ReplyDelete@Stargazer
ReplyDeleteSearch your feelings. You know it to be true.
what a twist
ReplyDelete@Anonymous
ReplyDeletenope
I'm willing to let this be "official" until S2 destroys all with it's canon Luna
ReplyDeleteThe first mind-blowing comic I've ever read. The creator is a surefire genius.
ReplyDeleteit all makes sense now!
ReplyDeleteWhat a TWEEST! D:
ReplyDeleteIt's a fun idea. While I don't necessarily want it to be taken too seriously, after some consideration and some points raised by others when I knee-jerk called it my new fanon, I like the comic.
ReplyDelete@Norwest
ReplyDeleteNo, it makes all the Twixie stories 1458645877% better because it has Luna.
MIIIINDDD FREEEEAKEEE
ReplyDeleteI do not accept this!
ReplyDeleteLuna is infinitely superior to Trixie!
NO Trixe, YOU are the Luna.
ReplyDeleteAnd then Trixie was Luna.
Oooooo-kay then...
ReplyDeleteUh oh. Someone else is using 'Stargazer' as a name now too? This could get confusing. I'll have to figure out some way of telling us apart.
ReplyDeleteFor the record, I'm the Stargazer from Ponychan (for example, http://www.ponychan.net/chan/art/res/23052.html )and have been since at least February, and I post here as Stargazer from time to time as well. Not saying I somehow own the name or anything silly like that. Just wanted to give a head's up.
Of course, if you let this become your fanon, it makes the Out in the Cold followup stories really interesting.
ReplyDeleteThat's some really good artwork there. I'll leave it at that.
ReplyDeleteThat was my first thought when I saw Boast Busters. TGAPT and NMM had such a similiar modus operandi.
ReplyDeleteWonderful fanon and until season 2 nothing is set into stone.
Also more Trixie and Princess
...Ponyception?
ReplyDelete@Everypony
ReplyDeleteGo back and read the final chapter of Out in the Cold, Twilight helps Luna have sex with herself.
o.0 it makes PERFECT SENSE !!
ReplyDelete*reads comic*
ReplyDelete.......LIES!!!
there is no way that best pony Luna and that annoying one are the same.
Wow that's one of the most bullshit fanon stuff I've ever set my eyes upon
ReplyDeleteWell, my logic just overloaded, if you need me i'm just gonna chew on a muffin for a few hours
ReplyDeleteI really badly wanted to do inb4 outrage.
ReplyDeleteNow it all makes sense...
ReplyDeleteI would love it if this explanation was made official. I really, really would :3
ReplyDelete...
ReplyDeleteso... does that mean that all luna-trixie ships are now, technicaly, clop fiction?
@CoffeeGrunt
wait, that fic has TWILUNIXIE?
HOW COULD I FORGET?!?!?
I'll be sure to read it now.
I lol'd. Hard.
ReplyDeleteBut yes, it does make sense !
But I'm pretty sur that it was an idea of Celestia to test are "Most faithful student" ...
Cute but it's ridiculous! that's not true, it's purely Trixie! LOL
ReplyDeleteThat would be an awesome twist ! xD
ReplyDeleteOh wow.... that actually makes alot of sence to me.... Brillent!!! =D
ReplyDeleteI don't think its true in the slightist, but it is still great!
Until we see a pony disquse themselves as another Pony in the series, we have to call this off I'm afraid.
ReplyDeleteGranted, Twilight might eventually try something like this to help one of her friends out. Some sort of the "Being in 2 places at once" sort of deal...
That, or Zecora's knows how to brew Polyjuice Potion.
Welp, issue solved. Good to know.
ReplyDeleteWAHT A TWEEST
ReplyDelete2 words: Mind Blown
ReplyDeleteWow... My mind is blown... lol This is incredible!
ReplyDeleteWe need fics on this subject. ASAP!
And here was me thinking Celestia simply had her assassinated when nobody was looking.
ReplyDelete*clop* *clop* *clop* *clop*
ReplyDeleteThanks for all the comments. All this attention sure is stroking my ego ^^
ReplyDeleteAlthough fun, I pray this won't ever become canon in S2.
ReplyDeleteYes, the idea crossed my mind as an explanation of where Luna has been. There is, a few issues though which is why I hope it doesn't become canon.
Although yeah, it makes quite a few Trixie fics really, really weird.
@Killsteal_Wolf
ReplyDeleteThis is a fanon thing :D
for actual canon there's nothing to do but wait for more Luna in S2...
That's just straight up bullshit, fuck your stupid fanon.
ReplyDeleteMind=Blown. This is now canon
ReplyDeleteTrixie Ponies! We hates them.
ReplyDeleteI KNEW it!
ReplyDeleteHahaha, great comic!
ReplyDeleteI'd like it if Luna kept a bit of an edge in season 2. She got pissed off enough at Celestia to turn into an evil superbeing with her own war gear, so it wouldn't seem OOC to me if she still had a slight spiteful streak now all is forgiven.
ReplyDeleteWait a minute, wasn't there a post on here a few days back where Trixie claimed that Luna wasn't a... whatever you call a pony with wings and a horn?
ReplyDeleteTo bad I thought of this last month.
ReplyDeleteI was putting it into story-format, however, with more smoke and mirrors and a press-on tattoo.
CANNOT COMPUTE!
ReplyDeletelol Nice. That explains why I like Luna and Trixie both. Or maybe they're both just great characters. Either way, that's a twist alright. :D
ReplyDeleteOh that's good... Really really good. XD
ReplyDelete@Burndog
ReplyDeletelol
@Star Winged Brit:
ReplyDeleteLuna could just be trying to cover her tracks. Who would suspect a pony to be the same pony they just tried to disprove? That or Sethisto got the commercial email before this comic.
I like it. Whether I like this being fannon or not, I'm sure this will end up making great stories in the future.
OH SHIIIIII
ReplyDeletedont give ideas to hasbro!!!!!
ReplyDeletebcause i totaly se that hapening in the show..
HOLY FUCKING SHIT! SHAPESHIFTING PONIES :O
ReplyDeletePlease give me a moment while i pick up my jaw from the floor

Well time to make someone shapeshift Celestia...but i can barely find any side-characters....perhaps background ponies could work too
K
And then Seth inadvertently hopped on the Luna bandwagon and all was well.
ReplyDeleteNow we just need to establish that Celestia is Gummy.
So glad I am not the only one who thought this might be the case. The creator is amazing. Its gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI can totally see that as what happened.
ReplyDeleteAfter reading the comic, all I could think was "of course!", then my head exploded, twice
ReplyDeleteBravo! First thing in a while to be actually interesting.
ReplyDeleteMind is utterly blown, though for a second I thought it might be Celestia disguised as Trixie, but either way that was Goddess Level Pony Trolling.
Also: *CLOP CLOP CLOP CLOP* WTF
@Fallin' Winter ... GENIUS!
ReplyDeleteI Love her expression in panel 7 xD
ReplyDelete@LMAO
ReplyDeleteCelestia as Zecora?
Keep that in mind and then re-watch Swarm of the Century for an outstanding "Trollestia" moment! XD
*reads panel*
ReplyDelete*reads panel again*
....
WHAT THE FU-
*boom*
It makes perfect sense!!
ReplyDeletewait a sec. Then Twixie and Twiluna are one and the same? YESSSSS. Also, another fic that this would send to all kinds of paradoxical hell; "Tonight We're Gonna Party Like It's 999"
ReplyDeleteNOOOOOOOOO! why must you soil the reputation of one of the best ponies by relating her to that vile bitch! oh well. still a good comic.
ReplyDeleteNo sorry I don't see it.
ReplyDeletehead hurts
ReplyDeleteO.o
ReplyDeleteWHAT IS THIS MAGIC
ReplyDelete*head asplodes*
ReplyDeleteLuna having shapeshifting powers would actually explain a lot. Like where she got that moon-armour, and where it went after she was "defeated"
ReplyDeleteA glamor spell?
ReplyDeleteReally Luna?
I kinda like the idea for what it does for Luna's personality. I don't much like the moe Luna purity sue that so many people like, I could support a hammy prankster.
ReplyDeleteThis reminds me of the intro to Red Alert 2.
ReplyDeleteOh good, princess Celestia's slow clop function is still working. At least we have that.
ReplyDeleteI like this idea. I wish to subscribe.
Until officially said otherwise, I'm counting this as cannon.
ReplyDeleteLess depressing than the lonely, homeless version a lot of fanfics have.
Bah. Shenanigans.
ReplyDeleteIf this was true, that'd be one less shipping possibility.
If they were the same, then Triluna would be a particularly odd form of clopping.
Oh man, that makes enough sense that it's kind of scary. Very clever idea!
ReplyDeleteMe, I've always liked Luna as a bit of an artist and trickster. Bookish Abacus Luna is cute and all, but it doesn't quite fit my idea of a moon goddess.
ReplyDelete@Norwest
No, it just converts all Twixie into Twiluna.
@Geldon Yetichsky
If by crescent moon you mean streamer of magic sparkles. Seriously, look closely. There is no moon on Trixie's ass.
Fuck no, this better not be cannon or I'll kill a kitten. I hate Trixe, but like Luna. I don't want to hate Luna.
ReplyDeleteI really like this idea, they should make it canon.
ReplyDeleteLuna is best goddess of chaos!
ReplyDeletesomeone needs to get this into season 2
ReplyDeleteI wonder if Sephisto realize that ''this'' comic *might* means that Trixie never really existed, that she was a ''illusion/creation'' of Luna ?
ReplyDeleteQUICK ! All under the tables ! ;)
...or maybe Luna just copied ''that mare'' she saw on a poster, somewhere ?
HOLY CRAP! THAT IS CRAZY!!!
ReplyDeleteDear god, I swear that this might very well be in the plot for season 2! It is brilliant!! Mad but brilliant!
ReplyDeleteSense? What is sense you are talking about? There is only ponies.
ReplyDeleteThe only difference between there cutie marks is trixie's moon is a bit mis-shapen and has a wand next to it.
ReplyDelete*head explodes and implodes and explodes and implodes*
ReplyDeleteWell now that my head is back on, this does make sense as Celestia may have been trying to show her that her self-centeredness is what caused everypony to hate her a thousand years ago.
Didn't breath after I saw that or while I was typing this... In shock at the revelation.
ReplyDelete*Quoting Red VS Blue*
ReplyDeleteThis doesn't seem physically possible!!! O_o
NO!
ReplyDeleteNO IT CANT BE TRUE!
Well there you go Seth, You don't have to feel guilty about posting all those Luna with socks pictures now.
ReplyDeleteOH GOD MY BRAIN JUST EXPLODED AT THE POSSIBILITY
ReplyDeleteSorry but , WUT ???
ReplyDeletewhat the........THAT MAKES TOTAL SENSE
ReplyDeleteOkay, okay, okay, okay
ReplyDeleteI got it.
WHAT IF...
There really WAS a Great and Powerful Trixie, only she NEVER ACTUALLY MET Twilight Sparkle or ever been to Ponyville, with the Trixie who DID actually being Luna-in-disguise? (With the real Trixie being just as haughty (if not more so) than Fake-Trixie was).
OH. MY. GOD.
ReplyDeleteI literally have not the words for this epic shit.
Ok...
ReplyDeleteWHAT???!!!
...
ReplyDelete*dips wooden stake in blood*
...
...LUUUNNAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!
*lunges at Luna with stake, intending to stab it right through her heart*
@NotAGoodUsername360 Hey, that reminds me: Why the hay hadsn't somepony written a Supernatural crossover where Pinkie is a trickster that enjoys poetically killing troublemakers in the style of MLP fanfics?!

Seen this before.
ReplyDeleteEven so, it is disturbing how easily the producers could devastate the fandom by making this canon. All those Trixie fics– *fwoosh* –just like that. And it could conceivably work. This is mind-blowing.
I guess Seth is happy now. It looks like "Trixie" won the best pony poll a long time ago after all.
ReplyDeleteCelestia is basically a pony goddess so luna has just as much magical ability maybe enough to alter her appearance and maybe even disguise her mark I play dnd a lot and sometimes gods like to throw random things at their subjects to teach them things "testing" them Luna troll'n every pony was actually a test to see how they would react to a big loud mouth and luna being behind most of the problems in Equestria would explain how celestria seems to know everything before it happens. And it fits her charactor She is the moon rising every night shadows and stuff like that seems to fit her personality.
ReplyDeleteI've always wondered why Luna and Trixie look so similar. This comic just explained everything!
ReplyDeleteThis can't be true... then Past Sins doesn't make any sense! That is bad because Nyx is the second best pony!
ReplyDeleteRarity is the BEST pony of course.
"Overkillius said... Best Blogger Tips [Reply To This Comment]
ReplyDeleteThis can't be true... then Past Sins doesn't make any sense! That is bad because Nyx is the second best pony!
Rarity is the BEST pony of course."
Agreed on both of these!
