"No, w-wait! I've been lying the whole time! I'm not actually royalty, I swear! Don't believe anything that scroll says!
Handsome, suave, and just bursting with charisma, Prince Blueblood is the stallion every mare in Equestria pines for. At least until they spend five minutes with him and realize he's a pompous blowhard. When a royal summit at the Crystal Empire goes sour, the only nephew of Princess Celestia is ordered to mingle with the "lowly commoners" with the intent of reconnecting with society. Though begrudgingly accepting his punishment just to humor his auntie, things quickly go from bad to worse when a certain pink pony from the boonies crashes into him bearing the worst possible news...in the worst possible place.

Written for Writer's Training Grounds #003 with the prompt, "While helping Twilight Sparkle with her genealogical research, Pinkie discovers another surprising familial connection. Pinkie heads out to investigate."
*Gasp* such language from only a filly!
Fun little story. Is it really over, though? The tags still say "incomplete"...
By the way: has anyone ever done this premise on a serious basis? I think this is the first time I've seen it at all.
This makes sense. Now the crystal ponies will beat him to a pulp.
Forgot to post this: He flirted with Cadence
Shiny should have ended him.

Karma, you wonderful thing.
So if BB is a descendant of both Celestia and Sombra, does that mean that down the line those two were lovers?
Its the Prancy Prince! GET HIM!
I like this premise!

As far as continuing the story, it's possible. Like I said, I was hard pressed to get this done in time for EqD's WTG while dealing with a cold at the same time. Still kinda reeling from it as I type this now
Anyway, that's why I left the tag open like that for now. It can stand alone as is, but I'm fully capable of continuing it. As a matter of fact, I'm actually able to continue the other two stories I wrote for the WTG if I really wanted to, but I've been trying to focus on finishing the first arc of Ancient Legacy more than anything.
Goldy, if you're not going to continue this story, may I put it up for adoption in my group?

I'm afraid I can't do that
I have had a story idea cooking in my head for the longest time, something with a direction I'm pretty confident in, though I just won't be doing it anytime soon. Though I appreciate your interest in continuing my work ~
