    Random Brainstorming: Celestia X Sombra Nextgen?

    I'm a sucker for next-gens, plus tragic stories of star-crossed lovers. I recently stumbled across some art that reminded me of an idea that scratched both itches, and I'm curious what you think.

    Random Headcanon: Sunburst and Sunset are the Same Pony, Pre- and Post-Transition

    I've always liked the idea that Sunburst and Sunset are related somehow. This headcanon fills in some gaps in EQG canon while playing off that idea. I'm not sure I believe it myself, but it's a fun idea.

    Any Deaf/HoH folks on here?

    Hey, odd question: any Deaf/HoH bronies on here? I'd like to consult about a story idea I have, in which Big Mac is Deaf. I like the idea, but I want to make sure I'm treating the disability respectfully, raising awareness rather than making fun, etc., etc., but the advice I got on Reddit was "Unless you're Deaf yourself, don't." I'd like to talk to someone about this idea, maybe even collab on

    Coltifornia Pones: Feedback/Thoughts?

    So, I've been reading through the rulebook for the new My Little Pony RPG (would anyone be interested in a review/writeup?), and one of the locations they mentioned is "Applewood"--pony-Hollywood, which, the book says, is where the Elements of Harmony are at their weakest. I've found myself brainstorming for what a story/adventure set there might look like, and how the ponies would contend with a

Poll: Celestia XVII shipping · 7:08pm Sep 23rd, 2018

Still working on Celestia XVII-2, and it's coming fairly well! But I keep on coming back to a question: who should I ship Twentysomething Celestia with? Vote on your phones now!

Note: I already have plans for Cadance, so don't let that impact your voting.

Ker-voted!

Thank you for not having Discord on there. I was sorely tempted to pick "Other: ANYPONY except Discord." :twilightsmile:

Clearly the answer is whoever Luna disapproves of most.

Brings back memories of when LunaMac was my otp in season 1. but this fic converted me.

I voted for Big Mac.

I love how Twilight is almost unanimous.

I'll have to read that one. I can blame my affection for that pairing on this fic.
Big Mac x Celestia just appeals to me. Or Celestia x Big Mac. :) Either way I'm cool with it.

Someone that lets her relax and be crazy.

4942657
Yeah... that was actually meant to be something of a joke option? But, if the people demand it...

srsly tho, I've been picturing both Cece and Twi as straight. And I'm planning for Twi to have a chip on her shoulder, at least at the beginning of this fic...

4942723

First: Man... It doesn't look like my dream of seeing her going on some flying dates is going to happen.

Second: Never put Twilight as a joke. Fans won't stand for it.

4942723
:rainbowlaugh: you walked right into that one, the Twilestia group is one of the largest single ship groups on the site

And also my immediate vote

4942657
4942746

Can I ask why you all prefer this matchup? I cannot see it even in canon.

4942723

You could at least have them both go with seeing if it could work out but find out they are better off as friends.

I'm voting for Mac. I admit the reason I didn't vote for Shining Armor was predominantly because, well, he's much too close to a second slightly-older brother to her (especially since his mom IS her legal guardian), which makes that pairing veer just slightly too close to incest for my tastes.

Can I vote for Chrysalis? I wanna vote for Chrysalis. :trixieshiftright:

In terms of canon, Twi has basically treated Celestia as her date at a fancy dance twice now :trollestia:

It’s also just cute, it’s a pairing that works. There’s a lot there to play with fic wise. The age difference, the student teacher dynamic, etc.

That being said, Sunlight is still the only ship that truly matters :duck:

4942767
Sunbolt / Twilight? I agree, they'd make a cute couple :rainbowlaugh:

4942767

Seriously though: I find Twilestia a little icky. The big things for me are the age difference and the power differential: Celestia is 1000+ years older than Twi, and at least began as her teacher/mentor. That feels like it crosses a couple ethical boundaries for me.

Also, since you mentioned Sunset--I've been debating about making Sunset and Sunbolt twins in the next generation of this fic. Any thoughts?

4942790

That would be cool.

4942790
Twi’s ascension made a lot of that less odd imo, also helps that in my head-canon Celestia is very silly and immature when no one’s looking.

If you take her at face value as a serene and matronly goddess it definitely comes across weird.

4942823
Jossed. Sunset implies that the way she acts now (sense of humor, etc) is new

4942827

But how much of it is that way? Sunset was an arrogant mare before she left and Twilight was highly unobservent for an extended period. Both have had their experiences with Celestia clouded by the student teacher relationship and their own personalities.

I am willing to bet based off how the castle in the Everfree was set up she has always had a very practical joking nature. Look at the two Grand Galloping Gala’s we have seen in the show. In the Discord episode of the two she was intending for Discord to show up and cause a scene for part of her amusement. My bet is that both Twilight and Sunset always had their muzzles in books and neither caught onto the hints that Celestia had a sense of humor. Now that both are more observant about their surroundings they are getting use to who the real Celestia is.

I personally feel you should ignore the twilestia shippers. The rest are more rare ships so that's why they arent getting much support.

4942886
They focus less on the story plot points and just their own head cannons. Any of the others would work perfectly.

Vote for Twilight.
Twilestia forever!

why is everyone preaching twilestia? aren't they related?

4986062
Sorta. Twi and Celestia are very distantly related, but far enough apart (~63rd cousins) it basically doesn't count. However, they also grew up together: Mrs. Velvet helped raise Cece from ages 12-18.

However, Twilestia is a super-popular ship on this site, and THIS Twi and Celestia are already BFFs. It's not too far of a stretch to think that could blossom into a romance... Except that they're both straight, and Twilestia creeps me out, personally.

Same here sister (or brother, I don’t know your gender:twilightsheepish:)
