Celestia is feeling down and Luna recognises that what she needs is a bit of romance to bring a little sparkle into her life. Could this be the dawning of a closer relationship between Twilight and the Sun Princess?
Time traveling from five thousand years in the future, Twilight Sparkle—or as she prefers, Glitter-Flanks—has one mission: to establish the closed time loop that sets her and Celestia up as a couple, by flirting as aggressively as possible.
Celestia loves Twilight Sparkle. That is a fact, an indisputable constant of the universe. What that love means, however, is much less certain. The love of a teacher, the love of a friend, or the love that Celestia dares not name.
Celestia loves Twilight, and she’s not afraid to show it. Or rather, she would show it, but she can’t. Twilight isn’t ready yet. She’s scared to tell anyone about their relationship. Celestia doesn't mind waiting. She’s a patient mare.
Celestia fears each day for her ponies. She fears for the loss of those she loves. But most of all, she fears a small purple unicorn. A mare standing outside the door to her private chambers, with a question upon her lips that could topple an empire.
