The life of a Princess of Equestria is always a stressful one, whether you are an experienced one or not. Sometimes you need to get away from it all. That is exactly what Twilight and Cadence thought when they decided to take a trip to the Hoofwian Islands just the two of them. The vacation is suppose to be about having fun, but deep down one of them wants a bit more than that. Their only concern, though, is how the other will react to this.

I waited this all my life

I am so sorry it took so long. I wanted to make sure it wasn't cliche
3368877
Don't worry, I'm far too happy to care!
3368881
Well I'm glad you're happy
Very nice. :)
Before I read this later today, does this take place in a world or time zone where Shining Armor and Cadance are not married? I don't like stories where two ponies cheat on one another
Interesting and well-written. Good premise. There were a couple places where there should have been commas but none were, but otherwise, it was gramatically sound. However, shouldn't Cadance, being the Goddess of Love, understand the value of a single true partner? I would understand if she chose to seek out another after Shining's death, as she is immortal, but it just seems... off, somehow.
3368971
It does not but I think you should read it anyway. You might find yourself surprised
3368977
We struggled with that concept my editors and I. This was what we came to an agreement on because it was the least cliche of all our ideas
Eh... honestly I didn't really feel anything with this one. But I'll still thumb up it, just no fav
3369021
That's fine it cant be everyones cup of tea
I'm kind of with the others Mayhem, while I do like the idea that Twilight and Cadence ending up together it just the idea of Cadence more or less cheating on Shining and admitting she is promiscuous just rubs me the wrong way. I won't vote this down, but I won't vote it up either
3369085
It's fine everyone has things they just can't get into
Nothing personal, but it really bugs me when people ship a character who's already married, or just in a deep, meaningful relationship, in canon. Especially in this case, because of these two characters' history; the whole "date your ex-babysitter" thing didn't work out for Spencer Shay, I doubt it would for Twilight Sparkle.
3369090
Yeah, with me the only way I can see them hook up is before the Wedding and after Shining dies. I just see the bond between Shining and Cadence being far too strong for either of them to cheat on the other
3369105
No offense taken I new before posting this that there would be some who are opposed to the idea
3369110
That's fine I knew there would be people who didn't like the idea. I take no offense from any of it. It's like me and HiE fics. I just can't get into them
3369131
And me and NLR/SE fics, would rather see the fic burn the fires of the Sun and then their ashes frozen by the cold of the shadow of the Moon then to let them into the Library
3369139
Molestia to
Your heart's in the right place
... but... yeah, I couldn't really get into this one either.
and admittedly that cover art is gorgeous; I hope you got permission!Points where they're due: Cadance being Omni of course makes sense; she's the Princess of Love and naturally has seen it all. The rest, though... there were two characters here having an island vacation, all right, but I didn't believe it was Twi or Cadance. They felt like two generic humans in a Hollywood movie. Especially when I hit the drinking scene.
And then there's the loose end of Shining, which
I care about the leastis a pretty big thing.I'm with 3369085 on this one. Can't downvote it, but can't upvote it either. Don't feel bad, though -- Cadance With Any Mare At All is one of those 101% Hard Mode Holy Grails.

molestia and trollestia as well
3369152
Well thanks for the feedback. This was just a random idea I had over the summer. I didn't expect it to get that much love
3369157
Agreed
I dub this ship 'Candlelight'. I know that it doesn't really fit the description of Cadence/Twilight but it sounds perfect to me.
3369457
Hmmm...
3369457
If you couldn't tell from my last comment I like it. Now we must make it a thing
3369486 Well considering that Cadence is the goddess of love and one method of romance is a candlelit dinner it clicked for me.

Whelp grats on featured.
3369542
Thanks I'm shocked it happened.
3369538 How about an AU story where Cadence never married Shining Armor and instead married Twilight?
3369595
I contemplated that while writing this one. I just don't have the time honestly
3369602 Maybe later then. Or you can make it into a challenge.
3369689
Possibly
Ohhh... adultery, mah fetish.
Is it weird that right now, we have a Shining cheating with Luna story in the feature box as well?
I might have to upload my adultery fic soon... I like competition.
3370128
Lol
That first paragraph is far too long. It must be fixed.
3370269
I've seen much longer
Well done but why would Cadence cheat on Shining Armour?
3370302
She wouldn't in most peoples minds (pretty much the reason why TwiCadence is tabboo in the fandom), that's why I added the part about her being polygamous and Shining knowing about it all
I can see why this made feature...

3370357
I was a bit shocked when it did. I started working on this at the beginning of the summer
3370378
And who said procrastination never resulted in good things?
~Skeeter The Lurker
3370387
Nobody that's who
3369595
There is one, however it also chrysalis x Shining
3370407 Let's see...Syphilis?
3370434
I don't think that ones gonna catch on
Made me laugh though
>(10/19/2013)
You just put the middle of the pyramid on top
3370502
Ummm
Clarify perhaps?
This is so wrong.
