Now that you mention it...You're very welcome! <br /><br />Now that you mention it, I understand why you portrayed Luna in such a fashion. I still do feel it was rather out of character for a more detached canon version of her, but I agree it feels appropriate for the circumstances. Still, it's a minor issue considering you wrote both characters quite excellently. <br /><br />I agree it is subjective to your tolerance for cliffhangers and such, but then again, Awaken, Scootaloo's ending could also be considered a cliffhanger. I just feel that the conflict was unnecessary and leaving it unresolved sort of adds to that. Either way, it's a trivial problem. <br /><br />Toodles~Adrian Mujica-Martinezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15356210765139180348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1928523650573730843.post-12792401290302827992014-07-15T23:15:42.185-05:002014-07-15T23:15:42.185-05:00I've always been a little leery of 'closur...I've always been a little leery of 'closure' when writing, and I'm not sure if it's because I do it so poorly or because I have a hard time drawing a solid line at the bottom and declaring 'Fini!' (which may explain why I don't write closure well)<br /><br />Well, that and I love cliffhanger chapters. <br /><br />I really didn't see Luna as OOC in her mothering role probably because I've written her that way quite a few times too, but other than that, very nice review.Georg Felishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03550333227450728733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1928523650573730843.post-75311733987665826132014-07-15T22:12:30.094-05:002014-07-15T22:12:30.094-05:00Thank you for your thoughtful review of my story. ...Thank you for your thoughtful review of my story. I'm very happy that you enjoyed it.<br /><br />When it comes to Luna's more motherly approach in this from time to time, you are certainly correct that she's a little more detached in the show. The Luna here gets a bit closer in certain instances. My thought on that was that if she is returning, it's because Scootaloo needs extra care and the need is arising from a lack of closeness. Thus, Luna knows that Scootaloo needs some mothering. However, I don't fault anyone for pointing out that this is not the Luna that the are used to. <br /><br />The secondary problem depends heavily on your tolerance for unresolved threads. It sounds like you don't care for them, and that's understandable. It's something for me to think about in the future. I heard from many concerned readers about that ending, but this is the first time anyone's talked to me about the secondary issue. I'll remember that for the future.<br /><br />Thanks again!xjuggernaughtxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12286896058684660654noreply@blogger.com
