Fun little prompt · 2:27am Feb 24th, 2023
Apropos of nothing, just an idea I had that I'm sure has been done before, but I thought I'd enjoy seeing comments about it.
Celestia and Luna aren't sisters they're just amicable exes and they go with 'sisters' because it explains their closeness and prevents socially acceptable rumours shipping them because they're over it.
“Sisters?”
“We’re close.”
(This has been your obligatory RENT reference).
I've always liked the idea they are "battle sisters" as in that they are not related by blood but by bloodshed. They survived Discord's rule together and all.

Sisters of Battle!
Something like this headcanon was a necessary starting point for a VERY strained reading of the lyrics of "When the Day Met the Night" (also Celestial trans IG) I was toying with at some point.
It's kinda cute, though.
That feels like it would lead to some unfortunate yet amusing misunderstandings with some people. Like, maybe they're hanging out with Twilight and since they're with someone they trust, they let their guard down and do some acts with each other that are just a bit beyond sisterly love - nothing sexual or romantic but their history and relation (or lack thereof in terms of blood) lends them towards something just a bit more intimate.
Cue Twilight observing and overthinking things, wondering if this is what true sisterhood is like
or if this is possibly even incestuoustill Celestia and Luna hurriedly clear the air and reveal the truth.God forbid their youngest awkward alicorn buddy asks Rarity if that's what it's like being sisters with Sweetie Bell.
Okay I'm definitely laughing but I cannot stress enough, the first place my head went when I posted this was being absolutely exhausted by paparazzi.

The musical that popped into my mind with this prompt was “The More You Love Somepony, The More You Want To Kill Them” from Avenue eQuestria.
I have no idea how I got here, but I find the idea interesting enough to like it.
