Pre-canon Celestia is tough to write · 7:45pm Apr 18th, 2019
Mainly because I have my version of her as being still pretty guilt-ridden over Luna's fall from grace and writing about a depressed character and their thoughts doesn't exactly put a person in a good mood. Harry being in a similar headspace...well...it's not exactly sunshine and roses.
But, I really want to push on through with this chapter as this is the one I wanted to write since the start of the story. I've only ever seen a single full episode of MLP (got into the fandom from another fanfic called 'A Hollow in Equestria' as I'm a big Bleach fan and from random songs on the internet) and that was the impetus that fueled Equestrian Elegy.
Hopefully it'll be a pleasant surprise for readers but I'll understand if I'm the only one who gets the feeling of payoff when this is finally done.
As of writing this, I only got like 3k words written and I'm still in the beginning. I don't think it'll be quite as monstrous as the 'Perspective' chapter, but I could easily be wrong as I have a tendency to drone on.
This blog post is a pretty good example now that I think about it...
