Pretty sure you meant arrival.
Oh it was so beautiful, the abject terror, the fear and revulsion, the fearful curiosity, then the careful desire. Oh my, oh my, I can't wait to see her reaction to...Twilight's herd.
Kudzu, you spoil me. Updating when I wake up? I am flattered.
*Is just kidding of course, but he did totally wake up when it updated by pure chance*
Sunset Shimmer is freaking out and Bucky hasn't even gotten to the fun stuff yet. Like Dark Magic no longer being illegal or considered inherently evil. The Shetland Islands situation in full, the flat out murder of most of the griffon race, ect, ect.
One thing I'm wondering, is her submissive response because she is trying to be humble, or does she think he's going to want 'services' from her. I wouldn't be serprized, if she knows anything about who Bucky is or his family that a deal like this would have strings attached. Or does she trust Twilight that much that she would accept the word of some random Warlock.

Dark magic is still illegal.
Bucky is allowed to experiment.
Yay Sunset. You're back. Yay
5299399
Flash does seem to have a tendency to pick up feisty mares. Maybe after Sunset earns her freedom something could happen there, I wouldn't be opposed to it
5299430
I don't think so, Kudzu mentioned Twi's herd was set. Would love to see if Sunset finds some play... Maybe Rising Star, kinda creeper since she's like older than everyone, but she was in high school in the human world. And he does have that Pyro overwhelming charisma. Not to mention she had that kick as flame succubus look going on....hmmm.
Shouldn't that be stoves? While stones would make sense too, in some way, you don't want open fire in those temporal shelters. And how do you make stones in a FORGE?
For some reason, this came to mind.
I have no idea why.
Bucky didn't object to being called Master, oh right, there's a difference on choosing to serve.
5299480
He was annoyed though. And called her Minion to annoy her back.
5299483
I found it strange she went with it without raising an eyebrow.
5299485
5299483
I suspect she was expecting to have to Kow tow when she was summoned by a Prince. After getting over her shock it would only be a matter of seeing how far she would have to bend.
5299483
... I get the sense that he either failed miserably in annoying her back or there is something here that flew so far over my head the lander on the comet can reach out and grab it.
(I love humanity and their achievements. So many available metaphors.)
Oddly enough, I expected Bucky to start screaming in fear whn Sunset did, then ask why they were both screaming after she ran out of wind.
I love how casually Scorch is mentioned. One of the archdukes of Hell has become the family's wacky uncle.
And Sunset... yeah. Really, I think this is about as good as it could've gone, especially with how quickly Celestia was lured out of sulking in her room. Now, time to force the sun queen to grow up a little. I look forward to it, and to seeing Sunset and Bucky develop the rapport they have in The Chance.
One tyop:
Okay, I try to give you a pass on dialogue, but that's pretty egregious right there. "Where are they?"
5299445
Haven't you ever seen Avatar: the Last Airbender? Everythng is connected. Even Metal is just Earth that has been purified, so making stones would just be a matter of making unrefined metal, like melting the ores and then not separating the slag before pouring it out again. it's relatively Point!ESS, but doable.
5299553
no no its a wondrous magic item, 'stone of wood burning' page 345 of the GMM, place 'stone of wood burning' on wood, the wood burns.
I do love Sunset Shimmer's reaction to seeing them in Equestrian for the first time, totally rational reaction for someone who's been gone since pre-Nightmare Moon. That will be a fun first encounter, when she figures out she has accepted as a master a Tainted Warlock War Chief of Equestria who serves under the Former Nightmare Moon. Oh the screaming to be had even if she is aware of Luna through the other world as a vice principal.
Also I just noticed, but need an emoticon for Luna on this site, I mean, we have one for Twist, but no Luna. No wonder she feels underappreciated.
5299566
Bah, seems like a waste of effort. If you're going to make a magical stone that burns, it should either be ammunition or capable of providing heat comparable to a fire on its own.
5299587
Yes, one of the lesser known wondrous items, really it's just a magical lighter that is safe to keep in your pack and use able even when wet.
5299599
That does remind me of something though. I wonder if someone (possibly Sunset) will invent Thaumathermal heating. It would be like geothermal heating, but tapping minisculely into the leylines. Sorta like the Mako Reactors in Final Fantasy VII, but hopefully with less chance of slowly killing the planet and all life as they know it.
5299610
haha yeah they have a hydroelectric plant, going Arcanoeletric would be cool. But I'm just picturing a nuclear meltdown of the Leylines causing all kinds of problems.
5299621
Lol. Something like in the summer everyone cranks up the air conditioning and then the planet explodes?
5299627
holy shit, I could actually see that happening. Haha
cdn.screenrant.com/wp-content/uploads/Star-Wars-7-Rumor-Emperor-Returning.jpg
I feel Celestia will want to give a wing slap or two to Bucky but won't because he did everything within his power, darn that unicorn cleverness.
5299441
That's an even better idea
5299508 *is now slightly peeved that this didnt happen xD*
that was more negative than it sounded in my head.
put simply, was hoping for myrmidions facing a major social shock, and shock by tasers. the comedic gold for that was incredible. and they did kinda lock the pony up in chains immediately and all........ and did go into a world where their powers do not exist anymore.
other than that......... i do not think i am gonna like sunset shimmer as much as i want to here. not gonna hate her, but it is clear you never watched the movie.
A- she feels magic in the movie, a lot of magic, harmony magic.
B- this goes against her experiences and development to want power. in the movie she is fearful of what she once was, and is still enduring the backlash for it. as she says at one point, "I am in a far better place than i was". still she could be smarmy and sarcastic given the right moment so that is sitll there. but she fell into corruption, and was pulled out by the skin of her teeth. scared the fuck outta her.
otherwise......... just a small confusion. why make her a type 3? her creation makes it fairly clear she was a legitimatel rivla to twilight, least when she was a unicorn. she exists as a parrallel to what tiwlight could have become herself, so caught up in attaining strength she forgets why she wanted it to begin with; twilights rival.
the rival not being anywhere in the same league kinda defeats the purpose of them being a rival. and she was a legitimate one, not a presumed one like Trixie.
SUNSET SHIMMER
Celestial is going to be surprisingly calm, I think. Even grateful to see her former student. I have yet to see her go beyond wing slaps and a frown of disappointment in front of Bucky. It's like she's too afraid of losing more ponies to get that mad at them. She'll ask the whys and and accept Bucky's reasoning. Sunset will be hugged and placed under Bucky's care and we can move on to the next arc.
5299935
Clear I never saw the movie huh?
Do you ever even listen to the crap you type?
I SAW THE FUCKING MOVIE. AND I DON'T FUCKING CARE.
5300158 ???? you confuse me to no end. disregarding the primary source of her characterization, and good characterization at that. not like with flash sentry where you have zilch to work with.
not to mention the whole 'wish i could feel magic again' thingy kinda makes no sense when she can feel incredible magic every time she plays a song with her friends.
put simply she is acting like all of her character progression got left behind when she went through that portal and pinkie is scooping it inot a jar to save for when she gets back.
5300158 Your caps make me laugh.
5300171
You saw her for a brief moment in ONE scene. I suppose you know her character now in The Chase, correct?
5300213 she states she wants power, blatantly and flatly insulted someone. those are rather massive step backs, more like the pre demonic possession sunset shimmer.......
besides, the demonic possession thing. she lost control of her own will and was puppetted by all the ugly in her soul. had a total emotional breakdown from that experience. and all because she managed to get the power she craved.
put simply would someone who went through that want power anymore? she was in deep in dark magic further than anyhting bucky has experienced and it was only by providence that she was pulled from the brink.
besides her craving the feel of magic makes no sense. she feels magic, the magic of harmony itself, every time she plays with her friends in the human world.
be like someone saying 'oh how i want a glass of milk' and ignores that fact he has a fridge full of milk.
5300260
She wants magic again. Real magic. Warp reality teleport rather than walk do impossible things sort of magic that she has direct control over.
As for the insults... just wait.
Sometimes it is such a crime that you don't have the next chapter ready to go instantly.
Edge of the seat here with interest of the looming reunion.
Say, fellow chasers, how many F5 keys were destroyed due this story?
5300294 ........ she had that too. if it can blast people it can be transferred into some kind of magical effect. remember that scott pilgrim battle? manifesting semi solid projections of the siren forms, blasting with magic energy? pretty sure it is capable of that kind of magic. heck they individually have their own power to work with. either way it is obviously REAL magic they are using to begin with.
either way why would unicorn magic even matter to her when she has the warmth of her friends and access to a power far greater than she ever imagined, and far more comforting than the fires of malice that burned her when she become that demon? ............
........... more so, why make the rival of twilight something far weaker than twilight? she exists as a parallel, yet she is a type three where tiwlight was a type four.
5300403
You missed an obvious point. Never mind. Not even going to bother.
If somebody wants to point out what he missed, feel free.
Sunset Shimmer was not the element of magic that Celestia hoped for.
5299485
Going to have to agree. The Sunset meeting -> submission seems very rushed. I had no time for a sense of gravitas to set in. This doesn't feel like Sunset, regardless of the whys.
5300488
You might be mistaking submission for fear and a desire to return to casting magic.
5300440 i know she wasn't the element of magic perhaps. and i presume that sunset sensed that disappointment herself and lead to certain decisions on her part.
her not being the element of magic however would not mean she would not still be powerful........ she was created to be a parallel to twilight. she might not be an element bearer but that does not mean she would be weaker than twilight when it comes to magic. least unicorn twilight.
the power of the humane five is REAL magic, magic from the element of magic itself. perhaps using an odd medium, but it is not to be disregarded. powerful magic is not always manifested through explosions and fireballs, it can easily be the most subtle of forces that can destroy your enemies.
5300524
Your still missing the important point.
5300492 which she already had access to, if through a different medium. seriously, they had a scott pillgrim type battle with astral projection and energy blasts ending with what seems to be the summoned embodiment of harmony to win the day. you can't get more real magic than that.
Sunset Shimmer is a Unicorn with a Talent for magic, when she ended up in the human world where there is no accessible magic is akin to an Internet Troll ending up in 6th century Europe. No internet no electricity and no way to recreate it. At best she can start a tabloid that gossips about the local goings on. Its almost the same but not nearly as having the anonymity and freedom that the internet provides. To be offered a clean slate, the chance to redeem herself from her earlier transgressions, and the opportunity to pursue her natural talents again is a very alluring prospect.
I believe her submissiveness is related to this. Her new boss is a Warlock, typical traits of any power hungry mage is inflated ego and a god complex. Its how Sunset would want to be treated if situations were reversed. She is willing to do anything to pass the interview, and with her bad first impression shes got a lot of catching up to do to get into his good graces.
