Thistle Gravity

How much should a princess know about mental illness? This becomes the private debate of Princess Celestia, after a young petitioner approaches her, wanting to die.

As Princess Celestia attempts to help the young mare, she begins to question her private assumption that her own behaviors are healthy and normal - especially when she finds unexpected thrill in the mare questioning her every move.

Bee isn't sure about any of it.

How has there been no comments for this? I guess I'll be the first then.

I absolutely love the pacing of this story, first off. It allows the reader to digest information at the same speed the characters are.

Secondly, the way Celestia doubts herself in this, not only through her internal critic, but through her own words and thoughts, feels very believable. As someone who has those thoughts almost constantly when I'm at work or alone at home, it's pretty accurate.

I really can't wait for the next chapter when it comes out!

Second comment here, seconding the first. Celestia genuinely wondering if she's doing right by disliking Bee's parents, hoping she's doing right by Bee, fee!s real. The slow build feels natural. I like!
