Considering the fact that you are armed with a guarded sabre adapted for hoof and I'm armed with a glass bubble helmet, spaaace and magic, I think I would win. Space magic is stronger than swords. "The ability to destroy a planet is insignificant to the power of Space Magic."

People had nothing to go on for Luna's personality in the early days when Bronies was becoming a thing from Fall 2010 to late-Summer 2011. That was back when it was in the news and generated quite a stir over the intertubes being either brony or anti-brony or gay allegations and whatnot. Back in those days, Luna's only appearance was at the tail end of Friendship is Magic, Part 2 and she looked like this. The entirety of her dialogue was "I'm so sorry! I missed you so much, big sister!" (to Celestia) By the time she made her first appearance with a noticable personality, she had already developed a quiet, introverted and somewhat recessive personality according to popular consensus in headcanons and fan-fictions. The inertia of this consensus continues to carry forward an alternative representation of Luna's personality even though it's been quite firmly disestablished by the presentation given in the show's canon in Season 2 and 3. Luna Eclipsed was anticipated as a very big reveal, and extremely few people predicted her boisterousness. As time went on and brony culture continued to influence the showmakers, it is quite possible that the shyness interpretation is responsible for the rather unusual and surprising appearance she made in Season 5. Thus it could be said that the fan-conjecture came full circle and actually canonically affected what Luna's personality is like.

I don't mean to be rude but you got a great deal of this patently incorrect. Metaphysics is the primary stuff of Philosophy. Meta- does not refer to existence, it means "referring to itself". Metaphysics means you're considering abstract stuff, first principles that don't truly "exist" in reality because they're considered at a level "beyond" mere existence. Being, substance, time, cause, identity and property are things that are analyzed with metaphysics. One of the most famous questions in Philosophy, "what is the meaning of life?" is a derivative of the metaphysical question "what is meaning? what occurs when something "has meaning"?". Physics is a branch of science concerned not with things that exist, but how things move and interact. (Existence is a separate branch of philosophy called Ontology, "the study of what is, and existence", not to be confused with Epistemology, "the study of knowledge and what we can know".) Ghosts and Telepathy would fall under the speculative concerns of Paranormal activity. Since there is extremely little that can be done in the way of empirical science regarding paranormal activity, it remains well outside the realm of physics. You're mistaking the Schrödinger's Cat Paradox (a physics analogy) with Impossible Objects (a logical category). Other impossible objects include square circles, married bachelors, weights too heavy for an all-powerful being to lift, and skylight windows too strong for Batman to jump through. Schrodinger's Cat is an analogy used to describe Quantuum Fluctuation, whereby subatomic particles can exist in multiple locations in spacetime, until they collapse into single locations by being observed (implying looking at things is actually a way of interacting with them). The Map-Is-Not-The-Territory breakdown of the analogy is similar to how Kinetic Theory does not describe that atoms are actually tiny balls moving around and colliding, but simply as a mental picture to demonstrate the sub-molecular interactions within matter. The applicability of quantuum theory to M-theory however is negligible, since quantuum physics has little to do with cosmogeny, unless you're talking about Planck Time and the Big Bang. --Neither of which have anything to do with portals (whatever those are) or Equestria (a fictional place). This is a bit of a blend between Solipsism and Physicalism-- both of which are Philosophical ideas which not everyone believes. Solipsism is latin for "My mind alone" and refers to the philosophical belief that one's own consciousness is the only thing that really exists. Other things like trees, birds, human beings, sensory experience and time are just things being fed to their consciousness by some unknown and unknowable source. It might very well be on this view that one could actually just be a brain in a jar being stimulated by a very powerful computer. The big shot to the foot of this idea is that everyone you ever meet will argue with the same strenuousness as yourself that their consciousnesses exist with the same level of reality as your own. It is extremely difficult to posit a reason why and how other apparently conscious beings would be lying about something like that. For that reason, Solipsism doesn't get very much traction in modern philosophy, though it makes its rounds in popular culture, like the "what is real" quotation by Morpheus in the movie The Matrix (1999). Solipsism was effectively defeated by Descartes in Discourse on the Method (1637) with his famous proposed thought "Cognito Ergo Sum": "I think, therefore I am". Physicalism is not so easy to summarize because Physicalism vs. Substance Dualism is a hotly contested matter of Philosophy of Mind right now. In short, Phyiscalism says that 'the mind' or 'consiousness' is essentially an illusion caused by the signals inside human brains. Substance Dualism says that 'the mind' is a self-existing entity which might exist independently of matter-- thus one's mind might persist (somehow) even if the matter of one's body was destroyed. There's a great deal of pro-- and con-- to both views, but it should be sufficient to say no one is clearly right or wrong about the question. In summary, the accuracy of your answer here is entirely dependent upon how "real" one ascribes the projections of their own imagination.

1. Assuming the Multiverse exists, then a potentially infinite set of universes with equally potentially infinite variations on their characteristics 2. If there is such an enormous variation on those characteristics, one of these universes could have characteristics extremely similar to our own plus a set of characteristics which makes it resemble characters and locations as described in out fiction, in their present concrete reality. 3. If (1) is true, then the probability of (2) also being true approaches 100%. This is what I call the "Fiction-Reality Interpretation" of the Multiverse Theory (M-Theory). It's not a new postulate, it's been around nearly as long as M-Theory itself. If it seems to general, that's because I made a logical generalization out of your hopes for "an alternate universe"; the same could be true of My Little Pony, Star Wars, DragonTales, Bionicle, Doctor Who or the Legend of Zelda. BUT the description of (2) is also ignoring the fact that for every single instance of a universe coinciding with fictional descriptions that appear in our universe, there would also have spawned billions upon trillions upon quadrillions of other universes which simply didn't have the proper fundamental physical properties and came out as basically "waste" universes with an ineffective fart serving as a Big Bang, promptly evaporating into heat death. Just like how billions of species died off to produce the modern Earth biosphere, 10100^1000's of universes would come into existence and then vanish again before (whatever generates universes) would ever cause the idealized "My Little Pony" universe, or "Lego" universe. But the big damning characteristic of M-Theory is that one of its central tenants in the hard physics of the matter is that the vast majority if not all of these alternative universes are unobservable, and that information and matter cannot be transmuted between them (as far as anyone's been able to figure out, for the past thirty years). Wormholes and Black Holes would not connect to these other universes because they only interact with spacetime within our present universe. It would be easier to argue that Wormholes connect two locations in physical space where "Ponies" as we imagine them exist as a sentient species located on a distant planet or within a distant galaxy. While this is a much more effective theory than begging your headcanon through advanced theoretical physics, it's still a pretty remote hope.

Welcome. Welcome to the City of Canterlot. You have chosen, or been chosen to be transported to one of our finest Equestrian urban centers. I thought so much of Canterlot that I elected to establish my university here, in the citadel so thoughtfully provided by our Princesses. I've been proud to call Canterlot my home. And so, whether you are here to stay, or passing through on your way to parts unknown - welcome to Canterlot. The fairest of all. --- We now have direct confirmation of a disruptor in our midst, one who has acquired an almost satanic reputation in the minds of certain citizens. Her figure is synonymous with the darkest urges of darkness, confusion and fear. Some of the worst excesses of the fall of Princess Luna have been laid directly at her hooves. And yet unsophisticated minds continue to imbue her with romantic power, giving her such dangerous poetic labels as the the Mare of Dreams, the True Princess. Let me remind all citizens of the dangers of regressive thinking. We have come so far since the time of the Mare in the Moon. Let us not slide backward into regress, just as we have finally begun to see the light. If you see this so-called Nightmare Moon, report her. Civic deeds do not go unrewarded. And contrariwise, complicity with her cause will not go unpunished. Be wise. Be safe. Be aware.

Metal water bottle, hatchet, run to the gas station and buy a zippo/a few lighters. I'm lucky I'm me! I always carry three things on my person: smartphone, wallet and keys. My smartphone has several emergency numbers stored, I keep bandaids in a side-pouch of my wallet, and my keys have a Swiss Army knife on the ring. My backpack has a leatherman, a pen, toothbrush and some paper in it at all times.

Let me tell you bout Yu-Gi-Oh.

It's kind of dark in here and I wish the lightswitch was easier to reach from my computer desk.

That was gettin' heavy!
