>Maybe you like the fic because I tried to justify everything with some explanations and ordinary reactions of feeling for such events. I couldn´t put Luna as an over the edge character without having a reason. I guess those little details pretty much help to introduce her logic. She has been in the lead of bat ponies, so she cannot afford to be that childish.

It was a interesting course you took with her. It was a mix that I hadn't saw before in such a way. Now granted, I don't complete many fics and for all I know there coul be some Celestia-Tier 1000+ upvote fic that I have neglected to read that may deal with the same topic, but I have read quite a fair bit of fics that dealt with Luna's return in someway and I honestly haven't seen this. This Luna felt like a mix of a naive child, and a dark leader of the undesirable night dwellers of the world. I really haven't seen that mixed before. Also, with the latter, Celestia's mistakes are often emphasized to the point that you have little sympathy with her for her treatment of the "dirty minority bat pones". As I said before Celestia was still wrong in a lot of ways but Luna's decisions as Nightmare Moon were still evil too. That's a nice balance. Not saying I haven't seen stories that treated Celestia fairly, but this had some interesting details going for it.

>but I cannot compare nor I do know how the quality of her fics are, so my writing is taken by musical influences,thoughts about the show and random thoughts I can have (I didn´t have in mind to say the Saturn line for example, nor describing FiM again at first).
>So glad to have dignified Luna´s character with this. I knew many have written about her and there was a lot of competence. Another one wouldn´t mark a difference...but I see it did.
Maybe that's one of the things that made this more interesting? Not saying that all the fics regurgitate each other but you've have limited perspective, which can be both a negative in the form that you may accidentally do something that's done to death but positive in that you are not thinking in normal fandom tropes or subject matter. Your experience with music, as you say, has taught you emotion more complex and sometimes hard to describe, with mixed feelings that sometimes don't fit with a normal definition of say, Happy > bittersweet > sad. I certainly see that in the way you wrote Luna.

>I know why it could bug you but yes, I had the purpose to narrate the episode and get the rest done quickly. If I had to retell the mane 6 acts, this fic would last 3 or 4 posts more and I personally don´t see it as anything relevant for Luna´s psychology nor the confession I had prepared.

I understand. It wouldn't really make since for you to recap the mane6. I just found the choice of meta style something that some people could find a bit off putting, even if you did skip things still.

>I smiled when I saw that rating, I wish I received that high mark in some chemistry subjects over the grade because I haven´t seen that since high school.
late semester crunch time I take it? Good luck anon.
