ggg-2 3,555 July 2, 2015 Share July 2, 2015 We know that Celestia is capable of performing Luna's duties and in fact had to for 1000 years. But could Luna do the same for her sister? Don't be a nerd. Join the herd! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manic 121 July 2, 2015 Share July 2, 2015 Probably, although maybe less skillfully. I know the comics are not canon, but she's done it there and I don't think it's unfeasible. She DID have aspirations to being the only princess remember? I doubt she would have made a play for the throne if she could not do a basic function of it. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyoshi Frost Wolf 42,202 July 2, 2015 Share July 2, 2015 I would say she could. She seems just as capable as Celestia in that regard. Unless she goes Nightmare mode and makes the sun go supernova on the spot. This could potentially make a pretty cool episode idea, the first part, not the Nightmare supernova part. Celestia cannot raise the sun for...whatever reason and maybe Luna has to do both jobs for a day, this could have her active in the daytime as well for once, that would be interesting to see. 1 Redeem me into childhood.

Celli 4,349 July 2, 2015 Share July 2, 2015 I don't see why not. Celestia was certainly capable, and Luna is a powerful alicorn like Tia, albeit a bit younger. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you haven't read the IDW series there's an interesting story arc where Celestia goes missing and Luna has to handle both Sun and Moon duties for a while. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have not read that issue actually. That is very interesting. That also means that it either could be easily made into an episode or that it never will be since they have kinda already explored it...That's a shame because it most likely is the second one. I will have to read that one eventually. 1 Redeem me into childhood. Show me myself without a shell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truffles 2,033 July 2, 2015 Share July 2, 2015 Since Twilight had to handle Celestia's AND Luna's duties for a short while (albeit poorly ) in the S4 finale, I'm sure Luna could handle raising the sun by herself. Of course, she had both of their powers in her, so I don't know whether that still counts as having 2 ponies handle it. 1 Are you a Spike fan?

Alto 437 July 2, 2015 Share July 2, 2015 unicorns used to raise the sun and moon before the alicorn sisters since alicorns are op in magic power im guessing eeyup 3 What is broken can be reforged Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justin_Case001 4,934 July 4, 2015 Share July 4, 2015 Yeah, I'm sure she could. Maybe she'd make it even better and add some lens flares. Abrams it up a notch. Omg, OMG, I just had the best idea ever! When Twilight had all the alicorn power and tried to raise the sun, she should have done this: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superdogz1999 551 July 4, 2015 Share July 4, 2015 She might take the role of Celestia but not as good as her. If somehow Celestia died or was ill. Luna will take over and try to rise and set the sun like her sister. She may also try to do Celestia's duties as well as do her usual duties like entering everypony's dreams.

Dark Horse 12,971 July 4, 2015 Share July 4, 2015 She'd certainly bring a lot more excitement to the job, and actually sound like a proper Royal. "YOUR PRINCESS IS PLEASED WITH THIS VISIT!!" But anyway, if you had asked me this back in season 2 Luna, I'd have probably said no. My arguments being she hasn't adjusted enough to modern Equestrian society and perhaps still harbored fears of being disliked or unappreciated at least. But now I think she'd be fine for the job, she's definitely shown much more confidence in her later appearances, and if anything, I think she's actually much more professional to her work, unlike her somewhat mischievous sister. I dunno, I just see her being more practical when it comes to important issues, rather then Celestia's usual "Let Twilight handle it." M.O. Omg, OMG, I just had the best idea ever! When Twilight had all the alicorn power and tried to raise the sun, she should have done this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G5CZ58CBGtg Ugh, yes! Y U No do this Twilight?? xD 1 "Always watching - Always lurking." Signature by @Kyoshi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
