* RingRingRingCRUNCH: Luna is startled by Sundance's alarm clock and ends up blasting it through the walls.

** "Luna Vs. The Dreamlands 2" definitely takes place after [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS2E2TheReturnOfHarmonyPart2 The Return of Harmony Part 2]] as it deals with Discord, and "PONIES! IN! SPAAAACE! Part 4" is set after "the Discord incident."

** In "Ponies in Space 2", we meet pony versions of [[{{Mythbusters}} Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman]]. Also, Luna's description of the God-Alpha of the Diamond Dogs sounds a lot like [[MyLittlePony Cruch the Rock Hound]], and after Blueblood gets scared out of joining the program, Luna quotes [[Videogame/{{Portal}} Still Alive]].

** Luna is pretty calm throughout 'Vs Dreamlands 2'.

* [[spoiler: HeroicSacrifice: This is what happened to Luna's unnamed suitor about a thousand years ago (pre-Nightmare Moon) according to Luna Vs. Storytelling. In the "Progressverse," the smooze from the G1 movie was pretty much how it would be if it was a real EldritchAbomination, and it attempted to devour Equestria during that time. When it was revealed that he sacrificed himself to by time for all the ponies to be saved, ManlyTears were shed along with any possible tears that Luna, Sundance, or Hoyden shed.]]
