Upcoming Midnight's Shadow Story · 9:27am Mar 3rd, 2018
Midnight Sparkle is a rising star amongst the magi. She has proven herself time and again against threats as warlocks, hags, werewolves, and fey, but her recent successes yet leave her ambitions wanting.
An opportunity presents itself when the Archmagus of Eastmarch announces his retirement. The conclave to determine his successor—what should be a mundane thing—reveals a most tainted legacy as long-forgotten foes push Midnight to her very limits.
The next big Midnight story is nearly here. Expect the next chapter in the Creepy One's adventure to be posted March 5th-6th.
Midnight ... please stop smiling.

I honestly can't determine her mental state. Has she been pushed to the utmost brink of sanity... or is she just trying to make a good first impression?

With Midnight, can you ever tell?
Assuming that is your story description, you might want to correct Sparkler to Sparkle, second word.
Looks interesting.
That is a very excited smile.
Aaah, so that is what it looks like when Midnight smiles.
That is... um, good to know?

I could be wrong, butI think that’s supposed to be Magus Morning Star, Midnights tutor.

Lol looking at Shadow and Sunbeam black really doesn't crack after all.

She's got no eye wrinkles where the other two older mares do. She's dark gray. The phrase is black don't crack. Just a dumb joke

Looks like the same color as the shading in the front to me. Not seeing anything other than teeth myself.
You know, I was never really able to picture how off Midnight's smile was supposed to be. I know ordinary ponies found it disturbing, but I was never really able to figure out why. But if this is supposed to be a normal smile from her I think I finally have my reference point now.
im an idiot never mind just the shading

thanks and are there any pics of gale if so there are not enough and who else would like to see a fic from gales pov

Hmm. I can't believe I forgot about that one.
That being said, it's interesting to see that Midnight has a whole repertoire of unsettling smiles. The one in the portrait makes her look like she's on the brink of a panic-induced emotional breakdown, whereas the one in the cover here makes her look like's she's about to strap you down to a sacrificial altar and carve out your heart with an obsidian knife.
And that is why there are no batponies in the Winningverse.
