20120722 Terl MLP:FIM Rough notes for story idea. STANDARD DISCLAIMER APPLIES (I dont own any MLP or FIM property, rights etc etc, this is a fan work that tries not to abuse things too much etc etc.) ---------------------------------------- Princess Celestia calls Twilight to see her privately about a special request. Draws back a tapestry showing her and Princess Luna heads side to side, smiling. Behind it is a painting that looks absolutely identical. Asks Twilight, what do you see. Twilight looks carefully, compares, says identical. Asks Twilight, You know how your freindship is so strong, what do you believe about the picture. Twilight thinks, freindship is more than just freinds, its more than just what you see. Twilight blinks, looks at the picture. Theres a third pony there, buh, buh, beTween the picture. Thats right dear, one of the most intelligent students ever to have been at the academy. Unfortunatly, he was not quite the smartest, or self confident. Very Enthusiastic though, and work. He had just completed the first draft of theseis application, and was coming to ask our permission. His timing as ever was perfect, as the disagreement between myself and Luna reached its peak, and I banished her. It was many days later, as the confusion died down, that we discovered one of the smaller labs destroyed. His work was neatly packaged in our private quarters, sealed with the Canterlot seal. With this image. Twilight confused. But, nopony than yourself and Luna can go there, or use that seal. Correct dear, Nopony can. After Luna returned, with your help, we found out thats what he had become. Nopony. He cared for us so much, he banished himself, to be with Luna in spirit, using his thesis to make it so. Twilight nods, So all we have to do is find him, then use the Elements of Harmony to. No dear, there is nopony for the Elements to be able to affect, unlike with Luna and Discord. You have to look for that is not there, Follow to that which you not care, To find that which was never banned, Return them to Equestria land. Twilight confused. But, but. Its ok dear, he has waited patiently a thousand years so far, he will be happy that you tried at all. Twilight nods, turns and runs off to get her freinds. Celestia moves the painting to the side, reaches in without looking and pulls out a card. Turning over, the words Thank You Twilight are shown. Celestia smiles softly. May this lope, be the lope home.
