I was immediately reminded of this.

Why nobody messes with Luna, indeed

There is very little advice which is better, in an objective pain-avoidance sense, than “Don’t pick a fight with someone whose day job is moving planets.”

It also reminds me uncannily of the opening to Equestria’s First Warp Drive. I haven’t finished reading that story (I found myself suffering from choice paralysis when the author split the storyline into a second divergent path) so I’m not exactly giving an informed recommendation, but the part I did read was a fun tale.

I recall reading another MLP fanfic once in which a fleet of starships came to attack Equestria and Luna defended the planet to devastating effect by swinging the Moon around like a giant mace. She was rather upset about all the blemishes she was putting on its surface in the process. Name of that one’s slipping my mind, alas. Might have been a Homeworld crossover.

Anyway. I shall ponder the definition of “fanfic” some more, this is an interesting gray area indeed.

That’s actually the one I linked above - it’s a Mass Effect crossover.

Ah, sorry. Didn’t follow the link.

I suppose it must be a pretty common thing for a science fiction fan, upon discovering that Luna can move the Moon telekinetically, to think “I wanna see her hit something with it!”

I followed up my half-remembered reference and found that she does it in chapter 4 of Homeworld: Equestria. Also in chapter 11 of Outside the Reaching Sky, and I’m pretty sure I remember a Borg cube getting splatted at some point too. Luna’s moon is probably a bit of a mess at this point.
