Hi, I'm Back With More Of This Silly MLP AU That I'm Definitely Not Taking WAYYYYY Too Seriously

hi, I'm back with more of this silly MLP AU that I'm definitely not taking WAYYYYY too seriously

the idea I'm going with for as to WHY Luna was banished is that Celestia has the gift of prophecy as well as the whole sun thing. so she gets a vision of Luna turning evil and to combat that, she just sends her sister off to the moon instead of, I dunno, having a healthy conversation with her sister? and after the fact she spins this tale of the evil Nightmare Moon to justify her actions to her people and she tells it so much that she begins to believe it herself

and then Celestia gets a vision of Luna returning, so she panics and sends Twilight to go study the movements of the stars and moon to ensure that she is prepared for her sister's return. most people think that Celestia is being crazy and/or paranoid but go along with it because she's their queen (did I mention she's queen?) and they have to

and on the Luna side of things, Celestia sending Luna to the moon causes Luna to become the very thing Celestia was trying to avoid and she becomes powerful enough to break free of her prison and return to Equestria with no assistance. she begins becoming the very tale Celestia spun to justify her actions and it's up to Twilight and the gang to work together to restrain her enough to purify her from moon-magic or something, idk all the details

and then on the Cadance side of everything, which occurs after Luna is returned to Equestria, Cadance was locked in battle with her father, Emperor Sombra (instead of King because it's the Crystal EMPIRE not the Crystal KINGDOM), after he killed Empress Amore (the unicorn from the IDW comics, btw (Princess Amore (why are all of the monarchs princesses????))) for full control of the empire. the battle lasts a thousand years and when Cadance finally seals her father away, she can reconnect with old allies

which is when Shining Armor is chosen to act as a diplomat to the Crystal Empire by Celestia to work out some allyship stuff and that's how their relationship starts. and so the union between the new empress of the Crystal Empire and a high-ranking diplomat is a great way to represent the new alliance forming. but Queen Chrysalis gets word of the marriage and of the fact that some of her changelings have fled the hive and are living in Equestria (Fluttershy and her family in this AU). so Chrysalis takes the form of Shining Armor in order to feed off of Cadance's supder duper op crystal magic (bc changelings in my AU feed off of magic instead of love). and then the whole thing happens with the Canterlot wedding but instead it takes place in the Crystal Empire. and maybe this could be where Fluttershy is revealed as a changeling or it's at least hinted at and during later storylines she's outed and it's a major conflict or whatever

i dunno, I'm just pulling stuff out of my ass at this point. and I still haven't figured out how to include Sunset Shimmer in a correct-sounding way so this AU is NOT ready

would it be crazy if I made a My Little Pony AU where Twilight is an astrophysicist and she was studying the movement of the moon and stars for Celestia to figure out what the hell is going on with Luna and that's why she went to Ponyville? because that's where Luna was banished and it has the best vantage point?

and would it be crazy if Fluttershy was a changeling and she and her family are the ones who discover the reformation thing instead of Thorax?

and would it be crazy if I made it so that Rarity's family is uber rich and that Apple Jack is the sheriff and that Rainbow Dash is the deputy?

and would it be crazy if I shoved Sunset Shimmer into Ponyville as an actual doctor, disgraced from her school because of unknown reasons, who had a one-sided rivalry with Twilight that they have to resolve in order to fix something big that is happening in Ponyville?

and would it be crazy if I made Pinkie Mr. and Mrs. Cake's niece instead of just a random kid because what the hell was going on with them in canon?

Oh my god he's SUCH a big brother!!!!!!

Scaring the shit out of Shippo while the poor baby is already on edge is SO big brother-coded

It's only season 3 and he's already bonded to Shippo despite claiming he hates him. Cutie patootie behavior

*this post was written while watching "Shippo Gets an Angry Challenge"

Watching Inuyasha again (I never finished it but it's technically a rewatch where I am), and I think Inuyasha (the character) would make a good big brother

I mean, the way he treats Sota (Kagome's younger brother) is SO big brother coded. PLEASE tell me I'm not the only one who thinks this

It's time for the girlboss and her boyfail brother

Barknight is a great friend. She's fiercely loyal and would never leave anyone hanging. If she was human, she'd be a girl's girl who always carries pads/tampons in her purse to leave in bathroom stalls to ensure someone who needs it might have something

She is often the leader of any battle patrols that are needed because of her prowess. She's also an incredible mentor and was the main reason Fluffypelt didn't turn out worse

Treetail is Whitestar's mate and the enthusiastic father of four. Chronically tired, he does his best

He's a bit shy and doesn't really converse much with the other Clans (unless he's bragging about his kids). He isn't the best warrior, but by God, does he try

hi, another addition:

Diamond Tiara's dad, Filthy Rich, replaces Mayor Mare as mayor in this AU because it gives Diamond Tiara a reason to feel superior to the CMC, even if Sweetiebelle's family is literally on-par with DT's

and Spike is Twilight's apprentice, not an egg she hatched and child she raised. he goes to the Canterlot School of Science and Magic as a student but is studying mostly under Twilight, which is why he's able to join her when she moves. he's also going to be a teenager here because it makes a bit more sense in my head. plus it gives me a chance to invent a whole family for him

and Discord! Discord is gonna get a mini overhaul. he's going to claim to be the chaos god and probably is, which is why he was sealed away over a thousand years ago by Celestia, Luna and the then Empress of the Crystal Empire, Amore. this allows him to have some sort of reason to go after Equestria in particular. and maybe he's released from the sheer amount of magic Luna had to use to escape her moon prison, so it cracked his seal and then his prison was completely broken open by some kids who are messing around or something. maybe his statue is in the middle of Starlight Glimmer's village and they worship him like a god and that's how Starlight controls them, because when their chaos god leaves she can step in and claim to be the only one to communicate with him now and she can keep these people in line

tying in Starlight was originally going to be hard for me but now i've just figured it out. thanks, rambling tangets!

yall can’t tell me this isn’t them

WHOA WHOA WHOA!!!!!

(Episode I'm talking about: "The Stone Flower and Shippo's First Love")

Satsuki is probably fucking 5 maybe 7 or 8 and Miroku said fucking WHAT???????

"[...] she was fairly attractive, I must admit."????????? What the FUCK???????????

You, sir, need to be locked up and put to the fucking BLADE

That is a literal child! It's not even young teenagers anymore! It's a literal child!!!!!!!!!!

They let this man be on live tv??????????

I'm killing Miroku. I'm exploding him with my mind. I don't care about his goals at all. I hope that wind tunnel devours him and he never passes on his lineage so that there isn't another one of THOSE THINGS running around

Inuyasha, kill this man

"Miroku is trembling"

Girl, they just made his eyes vibrate, tf you mean he's 'trembling'

Bro SHOULD be trembling, cause when I fucking GET him bro, no wind tunnel is gonna save his ass from my goddamn GUN

I hate this man. I can't believe he's eighteen flirting with kids younger than him (fifteen, sixteen, fourteen, etc)

AND DON'T YOU FUCKING DARE TELL ME "IT WAS THE FEUDAL ERA IT WAS NORMAL" SHUT THE FUCK UP AND LISTEN TO WHAT KAGOME SAYS IN THAT EPISODE

Anyways, I'm gonna beat Miroku's ass one day and then he's just gonna lie on the ground and cry. Or be dead. Whatever happens first
