*** She also ends up designing the tapestries... that more than a thousand years later Rarity spends so much effort restoring.
* {{Cloudcuckoolander}} : Pinkie Pie's scholarly discussion on the phrase 'Slippery When Wet' rambles on for three pages, and ''makes no sense''.


Added DiffLines:

* DefeatMeansFriendship : Princess Platinum ends up firm friends with Luna, and accepts her right as a princess... after being totally humiliated and ejected from the castle at high speed.
* EasyEvangelism : Luna averts a war between the Griffon Empire and Equestria... with sweets. And rhyming. But mostly sweets.


Added DiffLines:

* NervesOfSteel : Say what you like about Princess Platinum, she only trembles briefly at Luna's display of magical power, royal canterlot voice and her angry manticore pet before going right back to taunting her. Whatever else she is, she's certainly not a coward.

* DevelopmentGag: One of Pinkie Pie's entries in the journal of friendship is about her efforts to create and popularize a new holiday, "Lollygabbing Day". This is based on an actual episode pitch by Amy Keating Rogers that didn't make the cut.

Added DiffLines:

* AsYouKnow : Conspicuously averted, for good reason. The diary entries cover a fairly short amount of time, and neither princess goes into great detail about what happened [[VoodooShark before they became rulers of Equestria.]]


Added DiffLines:

* InsaneTrollLogic : The griffon ruler reasons that since the Pegasus Empire no longer exists due to being absorbed into Equestria, all it's territories are legally up for grabs. Both Princesses point out how little sense this makes.

It could be seen as a sequel to the Elements of Harmony reference book with a similar cover design and production values, though instead of a guide to the show it functions more as a totally in universe history book.

The Journal of the Two Sisters is a officially licensed companion book to the MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic series written by show writer Amy Keating Rogers, designed to be a {{Defictionalization}} of both the Journal of the Two Sisters (dur) and the diary Twilight Sparkle and her friends were writing throughout Season 4 of the show.

It could be seen as a sequel to the Elements of Harmony reference book with a similar cover design and production values, though instead of a guide to the show it functions more as a totally in universe history book.

As such the first half of the book consists of diary entries by Celestia and Luna, depicting the events of the start of their rule over Equestria and their struggle to find their place in the new kingdom they have created. The second half consists of the letters written at the end of each episode of season 4, expanded and illustrated.


!!'''This book provides examples of:'''
* WorldBuilding : The main function of the book. The first diplomatic contact between Equestria and the Crystal Empire, Griffons, Zebra, Dragons, Manticores and the various internal tribes of Equestria are all depicted in detail.
