Er, what's going on?
You scared Fluttershy. HE WILL NOT BE ALLOWED TO LIVE!
Rarity is already smitten
Applejack must have really bad grades in geography if this is the case.
5738040 "United Kingdom? What is that? Another fantasy land through a mirror portal?"
I love the idea of Sunset Shimmer X Blueblood. And of course, Rarity chasing Blueblood around will never get old. I wonder, does this world have a Blueblood? Does Principal Celestia have a layabout nephew on a trust fund?
The idea has occurred to me, Sunset's stated goal before she was redeemed was to become a Princess of Equestria, and her unstated but widely assumed goal was to become part of Celestia's family. If she had married Blueblood, she would have become a Princess, and Celestia's niece. That seems like a much easier goal than becoming an alicorn. I always wondered if there was a period of time where she chased Blueblood around like a far more aggressive and terrifying version of Rarity, maybe she was even the mare who put the fear of gold-diggers into Blueblood in the first place.

I got the impression Sunset wanted to be a princess because it was the highest goal she could find, the most powerful position she could ascend to by her own strength. Her villainous shtick was pride, being better than everypony else, and I'm not sure if she'd be able to gain the title by marrying somepony beneath her in ability and still justify her ego, if that makes sense.
Or maybe, like you said, she's the reason he ended up like he did. I've written BB being chased by an obsessive, skilled unicorn filly before, with only mildly traumatizing results.
5740497 What you are saying does make a lot of sense, Sunset did seem driven by overwhelming ambition to strive for ever more. I am sure she coveted the magical might of an alicorn, and if Celestia had somehow given it to her back before Sunset initially went through the mirror, I am sure that in the end, Sunset would have worked to overthrow Celestia, because that would be the only remaining challenge.
On the other hand, while Sunset is in the EqG Universe for two and a half years, she spends a huge amount of her time working to become the most socially influential and prestigious member of the school, mainly through winning all those meaningless princess contests. We don't see Sunset winning any academic or athletic competitions, just those popularity polls. In fact, she admits later on she dated Flash Sentry (implied to be one of the most admired and high-status guys in school) because she wanted to use his popularity to make herself more popular and prestigious. If she's willing to date a guy to win a meaningless Princess title in an alien high school, marrying a guy to become an honorary Princess in Equestria doesn't seem that much of a stretch to me. Of course, Sunset wouldn't stop there, the day after the wedding she'd be right back at the dark magic, still scheming to gather more power and influence, but I could see her viewing Blueblood as one tool in her arsenal.

I actually forgot about her and Flash again. She might not have been willing to rely entirely on her boy-toy being the means by which she gets where she wants to go, but was willing to use him like anyone else.
Ooh, good point!
Though for the sake of clarity, that wasn't what happened in this story. Very interesting angle, though, definitely something this fic could have been if I were going for one of those political-backstab-fest-intrigue things instead of the goofy rom-com (weighted towards comedy) it is.
5741455 He definitely would not have been plan A, of course. I just mean if Sunset had never found that mirror, and Celestia had not thrown her out but told Sunset she would never make Sunset a Princess, I could see Sunset doing it as a backup plan. At least trying to research a love potion that Celestia and Cadance couldn't detect, as a possibility.
Obviously that would be a very different story than this delightfully goofy rom-com. Here, I'm more inclined to wonder if Snips and Snails would get jealous, or something.
Aww no singing but it's a tradition to sing in the cafeteria during lunch
Great story by the way can't wait to read more.
Ho? This is interesting, and I can't say I've seen it done before. Coupled with some rather insightful observations and a dash or three of genre savvy.
It has certainly caught my eye.
Here we go again.
Goddammit Pinkie!
Oh dis gun be gud!
I see.
I have no idea.
Other than be really creepy considering he's most likely several years older than you and he's had a similar experience?
Riiiight.
Hm.
Riight.
Agreed.
HEH!
Oh boy.
Good luck with that.
You're a moron.
Dare I ask?
Riiight.
Hm.
So mainly only Fluttershy is into girls in this fic, huh? I'll stand by you shipping preferences so long as it's not the hated Flutterdash but I hope you don't mind if I keep my fingers crossed for certain pairings.
TwilightOrSunsetTwilightOrSunset!
Oh, and the chapter was good. Poor Applejack! XD
Nice story, ever going to finish it?
7003101
Not any time soon, I'm afraid.
7003814 too bad, it has potential.
Thought I'd put this down to be tracked. It looks interesting, but if there's no chance of it being completed any time soon, I really don't want to dive in just to have to wonder how iot's all going to eand.
