I like this chapter you haven't lost your descriptive touch, glad you are tying up loose ends. Though the pacing is the big issue it feels choppy.

Sweetie Belle at this point could just get her own story because this is a Rarity story and Sweetie Belle's focused parts can be removed without affecting the story at all. Sliver Lens has outlived her purpose it seems once a driving element now a nagging fly in the ear. Same for Shining and Hershing I was once rooting for them but now they crossed over to Lex Luthor paranoia you never want to go there.

I have to say for a queen with a hive of changlings at her beck and call Chysalis doesn't seem to use them as much as she should. In the fact villains are dropping the idiot ball so often that I'm surprised that I am surprised I figure this out just now, maybe the side effects of the powder cause one to experience a arousing high hence why they are so laughable incompetent. But I did find myself laughing at their attempts.

Sunset bee form will be missed,

Sonata was with Spike in one scene and then is at Rarity's house in another, I'm guessing we are just going to have to imagine what happen to that sandwich huh :( I can imagine what happens so I'm fine but it still feels a little bad to skip love scenes in an erotic story,

Oh I was not excepting that erotic surprise Darktry clever though gross to most I'm among the few that actually found that scene with humor and arousal. ^^

So I enjoyed it, there are some grammar mistakes, pacing issues and redundancy,

I praise the descriptions though the dialogue is long winded I'll let it pass since this is a Rarity story its like her to over dramatize something.

Rarity still best ^^
