Description Rainbow Dash must have forgot, In the heat of the moment, that only Pegasus can be on clouds.

Anyway the semester is over and now that I’ve heartily failed my finals I can focus on pony. Well maybe.

IMPORTANT NOTE: the following describes
He is a well cool dude who deserves undying love from you, like he has from me, because he did the vector of the cloud in the third and fourth panel. You can find is utterly magnificent whirly cloud here: [link] or here [link] without his help failure would have been assured. In addition to the whirly cloud I must commend him for his snide comments and wonderful reviews of my comics, which are featured on my page alongside my newest piece.

you know loved the fact fluttershy was also launched by the cloud and caught by the other pegasi even tough she could fly herself. that made me laugh a little

it takes imagination. say the pegasi can slow down the speed of falling ponies is they mash the clouds together to like increase the density. or something. but it only slows down the fall so they would need to be launched back up to be caught by the other pegasi.

I thought that too, but I made an excuse for myself as to why it caught them. I can't remember it though...

Allfather-Vohas In reply to NuclearMuffinCookie [2012-12-22 23:00:38 +0000 UTC]

Twillight cast the Cloud walking spell before they left so she didn't have to cast it when they got there?

Silky-Cotton In reply to Allfather-Vohas [2013-02-01 09:36:00 +0000 UTC]

In the episode, they clearly show that Dash made the cloud more denser.
Or maybe it wasn't easy to figure out, but that's basically what she did.

TechZeroPyro [2012-12-19 09:16:06 +0000 UTC]

Twilight obvious cast the Cloudwalking spell.....

...oh wait. The Academy is on a plateau, not a cloud.

....Did Twilight know?

Amazing. This might be the one time Twilight could get KILLED by researching too much!

Eh, who am I kidding? Twilight is terrible at actually figuring stuff out. She PHAILED at experimental data gathering and theory proving/disproven over the Pinkie Sense, declaring victory (and defeat) way too early multiple times. She publicly humiliated herself when she tried to called Chrysa-dence evil with no evidence. And don't get me started on the end to "Two Many Pinkies."

So...as long Twilight is not being "MMMMYstery on the friendship express" Twilight today, everypony will be just fine. Well, I'm relieved. Now I'm going to snap a faygo....

Actually, it only lasts a few days IIRC. Though there's no reason Twi didn't just cast 5 more of it.

jmartkdr In reply to salqour [2012-12-18 05:26:17 +0000 UTC]

I thought so too but then fridge logic: Twi would've cast the cloudwalking spell on them beforehand because she would assume it would be a cloud city like Cloudsdale and so they would be prepared...

That whole train of thought is brought to you by too much tvtropes.

Valtz7 In reply to ??? [2012-12-18 03:50:41 +0000 UTC]

I just figured what dash was doing was... condensing the cloud so it could become a more solid surface?

Chitty-bang In reply to ??? [2012-12-18 00:53:59 +0000 UTC]

I Think its because Dash spun the clouds together and made them so compact that they where able to hold everypony. My other gess is that Twilight cast the spell that allowed them to walk on clouds before they went to see dash because the wonder bolt academy is on the top of a mountain and they would be expecting there would be a lot of clouds thats they would have to walk on

Scyphi [2012-12-17 16:58:45 +0000 UTC]

I was thinking that maybe if you condensed clouds enough, it would be solid enough for anypony to walk on temporarily, so long as said condensing persists. Theoretically, the physics for that make sense, and throw in a bit of the natural magic Equestria sports everywhere...
