This story is a sequel to The Calming Christmas Flame


On a cold snowy Christmas night, the question finally came out and Twilight accepted. But that joyous moment of certainty was not the last moment of their lives. Many years lie ahead and marriage is not a free ticket to perfection. With their friends by their side, the new couple fights to steer clear of the typical bout of relationship problems. Like putting the toilet paper roll on backwards...

At least there's the honeymoon, right?

NOTES
1. Please be sure to watch all the Equestria Girls movies, as this does contain spoilery material otherwise.
2. This is the sequel to The Calming Christmas Flame. I'll admit V-Day Fire was just a tease. ;)
3. The story's primary Twilight is the one from the human world, NOT from the pony world.
4. Dog Spike is a dog. He doesn't talk in this story.
5. Please understand that this is rated Teen, not Mature. There will be no explicit scenes.
6. I started this back in March. Love won. Does that make me a hipster? :trollestia: (I kid.)

First featured October 15, 2015. :heart:

cant wait for the next part

also, rainbow cake... cool as hell

"Dog Spike is a dog."
NO WAY! I thought dog Spike was going to be a penguin...
but seriously, I know why you said it: so that people don't get disappointed, like I was, that Spike isn't a human. But can you please fix up the warning, a bit?

This was adorable. I was grinning like an idiot all the way through.

What is it with pony-fiction weddings that make me happy? First it was The Life of a Non-Brony, now it's this!

Setting aside how unlikely I find it that Two would want a religious ceremony (or even believe in a god) SunLight is best ship. This is SunLight. Ergo, this is best story. (Censored to avoid offence. Proceed at your own risk.

sounds like this could be interesting :twilightsmile:

My face hurts from smiling so much. :pinkiehappy:

Twilight had won the argument regrading which of them should walk to the altar first.

Regarding :raritywink:


Great start, looking forward to reading more!

Fairly sure at least some ponies view Celestia as a deity. Noting Rarity's "Celestia as my witness, I will never be sisterless again!" as a ponification of Scarlett O'hara's "God as my witness, I will never go hungry again!" As well as the apparently catholic priest holding a funeral that Sweetie Belle interrupted during the Let's Get Cheerilee Laid song.

5772477 I can say with relative certainty that Principal Celestia isn't a goddess. Relative certainty. I can see the worship (or at least, tribute) of Celestia in the pony world, but not so much in the human one. As for your priest... I've got nothing. You've stumped me, good sir.

Let's Get Cheerilee Laid song

You are a terrible person.

Add sex in future chapters please Q_Q

And nice story :3 :twilightsmile:

While Earth-Twilight might not worship Principal Celestia (... she's still a nerd, she just might), Sunset is a pony. Ergo she might actually carry over the general faith from Equestria. If she does, Twilight'd have no real reason to say no, even if she has no faith of her own.

I am absolutely terrible, I will admit. Now you have to admit that that's essentially what the song actually was.

The only empty seats in the chapel were near the back. Sunset tightened her grip on the beautiful bouquet of purple flowers and tried not to think of the two ponies that weren't in the room. Her parents. She couldn't think of them, nor anypony else in that world beyond the portal. This was her new Equestria and she was about to marry the girl of her dreams.

Really? I could understand not connecting back with her parents after the unpleasantness of her leaving, but with a connection between the two worlds that doesn't have the "once every 30 moons" limit there's nothing preventing her from having contact with Equestria, apart from her own shame or a worry that it would pull her away from her human home. And unless there's really bad blood between them (or she thinks it would be kinder to just let them continue thinking she's dead or whatever they think happened), Twilight should have the opportunity to meet her in-laws.

And while it may be acceptable that inviting Twilight Sparkle to Twilight Sparkle's wedding might be... inappropriate, not thinking about anypony beyond the portal would be a bit of a mistake when Twilight comes through it next time. Unless she leaves off visiting her other friends to avoid the "oh god oh god oh god that's me" issue with Sunset's significant other, they're going to bump into one another again sometime.

If you meant "She couldn't think of them right now," that would be different, but as it is it is a bit... troublesome.

Ignoring my nitpicky complaints, I love it.

Just like I thought. Freaking adorable. :twilightsmile:

Love stories don't stop when you get married. Marriage just means you've finished up the prologue and have reached Chapter 1.

Not a good start 'Sunny'....

Not that Sunset hadn't already seen this particular aft before.

That particular aft just so happens to be a particular ass.

Cute chapter. :twilightsmile:

I really love your header / line-break art. You did it yourself, yeah? I don't suppose you take commissions on something like that?

6216465

Thanks! And I might take commissions if anyone wanted... *bats eyelashes* :pinkiesmile:
(Where's a good eyelash batting Pinkie gif when you need one? :rainbowlaugh:)

Sounds to me like this boats about to get a little steamy.

General quarters, general quarters: all hands, man your battle stations!

D'aw. That was sweet.

(I couldn't come up with any sort of pun for this chapter.)

This is a good story so far. I can't wait to read more.

This is quickly becoming one of my favorite fics. Keep it up!

Uh-Oh, run, Sunset! The dreaded "We need to talk"! It's over! Abandon ship!

This is getting good. It'll be interesting with Rainbow around.

Yaaaaayy!!!!!!! Please continue!!!! :heart:

I'm wrapping up my other story, Hive Alive, right now. This story will become my primary one once that's done. So y'all gettin' more! :ajsmug:

If there is ONE thing I'm always touched with in fics it has to be weddings... this was no exception.

Huh...

On another note, looking forwards for more!

I love this story for so many reasons.
The flow.
The pacing.
The story in and of itself.
But the one aspect of this story that I only just now figured out that I like, is that I can't guess how it's going to end. That doesn't happen often.
Keep up the good great work!

*Why am I not following them yet? Time to rectifie this mistake of mine.*

Hmmm... I feel like you missed out on an awesome magical girl transformation sequence.

I just noticed 'cause you did it twice in the same chapter, but it's beet-red like the vegetable not beat-red like "Wow, did someone just beat you? Your face is wicked red!" With that out of the way, the story continues to be super-cute!

Sunset leaned over the counter and lightly pushed her wife on the nose. "Boop."

Is that a reference to this?

Friendship had been the power behind their friends but there was another power at work with her and Sunset.
It was a power as strong as true friendship but passionate in a different way.
Love.

So, Kinklight Sparkle and Foreplay Shimmer?

6613632 That's what I immediately thought of!

6622309 Ah, I can definitely see that.

I still can't get over Midnight and Daydream.

I think the first thing I said after watching that movie (after I calmed down) was:

"As the Sun sets on Daydreams of Twilight. The Midnight begins to Shimmer and Sparkle."

Don't know why I said it or what it was supposed to mean. But I guess there's no Sparkle in there anymore. Hehe

what was vinyl going to say

This chapter really says it: It made me stay warm. Really nice chapter.

I just realized you spelled Twilight wrong in the picture.

Fun fact: I misspell Twilight's name 90% of the time when I type it and then have to go back and fix it. For some reason, she makes me seriously dyslexic. Apparently, she does this to me in my art too. :twilightblush:

Geez! :rainbowderp: Bit of a harsh chapter, this one. All throughout, (at least in the second half,) it seemed like playfully harsh words that would soon lead to an affectionate falling action, but that resolution was never quite there. And the end was rather abrupt... Perhaps just building up tension to then resolve in a sweet, resounding moment next chapter? I hope so! xD I suppose time will tell...or just more reading, really. :raritywink:

Ahh, romantic sexual tension~ Hello, old friend. :raritywink:

Good chapter. :twilightsmile: They're starting to get back into the flow, it seems. Hooray for lovey-love love. The only real apprehension is effect of their love and desire for one another. It's so sweet~ :heart:
