Chapter 43
The Crystal Empire lived up to its name. Crystals everywhere. Even the buildings were made from them.
Hell, even the PONIES were sparkling in the sunlight.
Pushing the door open with my magic, I entered Luna's and my quarters. They were beautiful, nothing else to call it.
Large and circular, one wall made up of open windows. Not that it mattered, the air outside was nice and warm despite being far north. Part of the magic of the Empire, I guess.
The chambers were centered on a large, alicorn-sized bed. There were two more doors: one to the large bathroom and the second one lead to Celestia's quarters. Luna and I had twisted our sleeping patterns around for this summit. Which meant sleeping nights.
I just wished things were consistent, since turning the sleeping schedule around was always a pain in the neck.
As beautiful as it was, it was also somewhat plain, not a lot of furniture around. Other than the bed, there was just a table and some pillows to sit on.
Well, I had planned to lay down and get some rest, but the bed was busy.
When I walked inside, Cadance, Celestia and Luna all looked me in unison before bursting into giggles.
I froze.
Whatever that was about, it could not be good. Do not make eye contact, slowly back away. Don't run.
“Page!” Luna exclaimed and jumped off the bed, trotting over to give me a quick nuzzle with a grin.
...Damn it.
“Hey. What are you three up to?” I asked and nuzzled back.
“Just talking.”
Mhmm.
I suspected that I knew the subject as well.
“About?” I asked anyway as I moved up next to Luna while she turned to face the bed again, her wing draping across my back.
Cadance was the first one to speak up. “About how Aunt Celestia and Twilight are the only Alicorns not to have somepony right now.”
That's about what I figured.
“Oh, I'm sure that will work out.” I chuckled with a grin.
Celestia frowned. “How do you mean?”
...Crap. Said too much.
Luna shot me an annoyed look and I cringed. Oops.
“Sorry” I said quietly.
She shook her head. “Well, this might as well be as good a time as any.” She sighed and turned to Celestia, “I think you should tell Twilight about how you feel. I know now that she is an Alicorn you have a lot more time, but I want you to be happy.”
The two other Alicorns stared at us in confusion before Celestia tilted her head. “Feelings?”
“You know, romantic feelings.”
Cadance blinked and started to turn from pink to red before she burst out laughing, rolling onto her back. “Celestia and... Bahahaha!”
What.
Celestia, on the other hand, shied back a bit. “Romantic feelings for Twilight? No! I think of her like a daughter!”
Luna looked confused, her wing raising from my back. “But... she is your type! All the signs are there!”
The alicorn of the sun shook her head. “I do not have feelings for my student.”
Cadance started to calm down, giggling. “She is right. She doesn't. I would know. Not for Twilight, anyway. But there is someone she likes. Besides, Twilight has her eye on someone else, not that she realizes it yet.”
“Cadance!” Celestia quickly exclaimed. “None of that.”
Luna perked up at that, exclaimed: “Oh? Who? Tell us!!” and bounced over to the bed.
I just stared at them and then facehoofed. All that work and she didn't even... damn it.
Celestia glared at all of us before she shook her head. “I don't see how it is the business of any of you.”
Cadance just grinned widely. “I know who it is...” she said in a sing song voice.
Luna pounced. “Tell Us!”
I just watched with a slightly unreal sense of amusement as the Alicorns ended up in a pile of tickles while I started to slowly sidle towards the door. I'd make my escape while they were distracted.
“Fine! Fine! You win! It's just a crush anyway, it will go away.” Celestia finally gasped with a giggle as she struggled free before she blushed. “...It's Rainbow Dash. I have a crush on Rainbow Dash.”
I paused on my way to the door, my jaw dropping.
I did not see that one coming.

I didn't see that one coming either.
Very nice twist.
Frankly, I´m not a fan of Twilestia. Considering how much time Celestia spent raising Twilight from fillyhood, it sounds like wife husbandry to me. Creepy.
But seriously, Rainbow Dash?!
Damn. That's a tweest.
I'm a bit confused. Are we shipping Rainbow/Twilight or Rainbow/Celestia?

Wat
I better not see Flash Sentry entering this anytime soon!:0
Neither did I...I don't see it.
Tomorrow Sunset makes her move!!!!
What everyone else said...
I can't see how RD is fitting with Tia...
6890422
RRRAAAAAINBOOOOOWS
ok I never saw that one coming.
RD and Rarity yes but Twilight, really.
I kind of like the idea.
6890428 There are no chemistry between them...
I never saw that coming either.
If there will be Rainbow Dash is Gay clichè, I'm going to dump a million chairs on this story, breaking them in the process. Then I will run into the city center, screaming "RAINBOWS ARE GAY!" like mad. Then the police will arrest me and I will be put into asylum, where I will repeat "Gay rainbows are haunting me." for the rest of my life.
There is a man that says "JUST DO IT!"
I say "Do FUCKING not!"
Guys and gals, I'm pretty sure that Hiver being a non native English speaker is coming into play here and he means to say that Twilight is crushing on RD.
6890488 Celestia. Not twilight.
So CelesiDash then?
Or is it something else, I know the shippers have some form of abriviation for it
...what.
She did say it was a crush. Doesn't mean that they have met in detail.
6890489
Wait really...huh.
Well OK then. Would love to know how that came about.
6890496 RainbowLestia? CeleDash? Tibow? idfk...
Is not of their business? say the mare that start a rumor of Luna and Page? Celly that comment was a bit hypocrite
Oh, thank you for not doing Twilestia. The hinting about that in earlier chapters was one part about this story that I was not looking forward too. Now I can wait an wonder if you are going to have Page involved with the Sunset Shimmer event or not. I guess we will fine out soon.
Yeah... okay, what? I mean, they've barely talked, at all. And like so many people have mentioned, they have like zero chemistry. I can't see Rainbow sitting down and listening to Tia talk about her day, heck, I can't even see her understanding half of the things she says! I get the feeling that Celestia would spend a majority of her time feeling as if she were talking to a foal. Communication is the cornerstone of a healthy relationship, and I just can't see the communication between Celestia and Rainbow Dash being anything other than awful.
RD is not the ideal partner for Celestia. But then again, who is RD to turn down the feelings of the god princess of pony kind that controls the sun? Nobody, that's who. Unless Rainbow Dash reciprocates completely and genuinely the relationship won't work out, and seeing how fanatical ponies are about her in the show you just know she'll say yes whether she wants to or not either from pressure from her friends or her loyalty to Celestia as a princess.
6890763
The old…opposite attract she is a goddess with abilities imposible to mach with any other pony…the other is princess Celestia, so opposite and yet that opposite could be what it attract one another, and Celestia say it was a crush? you never had a crush from a super model or a great an attractive actress? I think its similar
6890782
Ah…I think Rainbow Dash could say no, she doesn't had a much of a tack and is a bit blunt with what she say if she think she doesn't like her, she will simple say it, I mean for cry out loud 'she punch a freaking dragon without a though even if that was complete pointless, so…Dash is Dash, Celestia is dragon
6890876
Okay, you have a point, I can actually see Tia finding Rainbow Dash cute, just not on a "I want to date this mare," level.
6890892
Yeah that makes sense, she is a normal pony after all, for now I'm a bit more concern about Page, like she and Luna say, Celestia is know for being the 'romantic' of the two, and 1000+ years might had make both of them idea of morality a bit shaky not to mention that Page discover multiple times that they can have harems, and he can have herds (not common, but not frown upon).
So doing the math I'm a bit scare for him: He is casual with Celestia + they both like each other company + Celestia basically start their relationship + he has prove to be a good politician and guardian (he save her life, there is something call the firefighter syndrome, where people fall in love with their saviour just because they save them) add to the fact that she enjoys Page talking back o her despite being a goddess and ruler and you could have a recipe for something bad.
I'm happy that the author will not go that way…I hope, but Celestia have right there a couple of weapons to used in order to tease Page.
CelestiaXrainbow?!!!
NNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!
6890907
She hasn't shown interest in him yet, so we'll have to wait and see. My main worry in that case would actually be Luna, she has... issues when it comes to sharing things with her sister. It wouldn't surprise me if she became worried that he might like Tia more than her, or find her more attractive, or whatever. Not to mention what that would do to poor Page's sleep schedule.
Twidash is my second favorite pairing so it's a happy twist.
6890994
Yeah that sounds scary, he better find a way to reach immortality soon in case that happen because that is the only way he can survive that
6890953 Yeah, the shipping labels just don't work well with them--although Tibow or Celebow are possibilities. However, the chemistry just isn't there--like trying to get a reaction from mixing He & Ne. Not even ionizing radiation can get them together.
6891117 what u said completely went over my head
6891132 Sorry. I was agreeing with you about there shouldn't be a shipping between those two. And shipping labels between them just don't work, either.
As for the joke, Helium and Neon are chemically inert.
6891214 oh ok
OML!!!
I hope this isn't a troll pulled by Celestia or something...
So this happened...
celestia x rainbow? 0/10
do not want
Rainbow... wut?
...Rainbow Dash? Really? Well at least you left room for that to change if needed by saying it's a crush. If you wanted to shock everyone, you should have picked Ocativa or something. (If you gonna go crack, crazier the better)
As for Twilight's future love interest, please don't make it Flash Sentry. Personally I suggest Zecora as an option...just saying...
6892554
Though there are plenty of styles that would be forced to start it from scratch once they actually got it right.
First Celestia * Rainbow Dash shipping I've seen. That really came out of the blue.
really Tia? shes the one you like? you have poor taste
I guess you could say it's a...
fem-Celash pairing
6892903 Now hold on, in other fics, Celestia sees Unicorns as the dominant and important race, while holding the other two in aloof care. True, she cares for them, but it's unicorns in her eyes who get the best of everything, including housing and medical. Here, she's smitten with a pegasus, so to me, it's a refreshing change
Say whaaaaaat
Well, I suppose Rainbow Dash did manage to pull off a Sonic Rainboom, untrained. Twilight needed the magical power from the Rainboom to hatch Spike first. Rainbow Dash is all Rainbow's own power, on the other hoof
And here is where I stop reading. Worst pairing ever.
GL to you.
6892899
You shut your whore mouth!
