This story is a sequel to Flounce!

Flash Sentry doesn't know when Pinkie Pie became his best friend, but nothing is ever certain whenever she's around. The only thing he can expect is that her company is always a bright spot in a dull world, and that might be enough for him.

A spiritual sequel to Flounce!, and commissioned by ShortSkirtsandExplosions

Princess Celestia is the paragon of Harmony. She is kind to her subjects and generous to those in need. She is loyal to her ideals and never compromised. She has a good, if mostly unknown, sense of humor. Above all else, she is always honest. Right?

Twilight Sparkle trusts Princess Celestia implicitly and in all things. The Princess has never steered her wrong, not once. When Twilight thought that her concerns for Nightmare Moon were being ignored, Celestia had her back, even if she was withholding information.

Wait a minute.

Shortly before Celestia leaves for Canterlot with the redeemed Luna, Twilight has a conversation with her mentor that will change her perspective on the Princess forever. She will receive something new, beautiful, and damning all the same.

Cynicism.
