Summer Knight


I like to write about ponies going on adventures. And crying. And kissing. Sometimes all at once.

This story is a sequel to At the End of a Tough Day


Yesterday was tough on Sunset Shimmer and Twilight Sparkle. Sunset attended a funeral to say goodbye to her uncle Silver Shine, while Twilight gave a very important presentation at a scientific conference; one that might just make her career. It was a trying day for them both, but their mutual love and support got them through, as it always does.

Today is different. Today the loving couple enjoy a nice breakfast, celebrate the things that got them this far, and look forward to the future. Twilight also has something she's been hiding from Sunset, a surprise something that will change everything. For better or for worse.

Today is a good day.

Cute, fluffy and sweet. Nothing like waking up to a little SunLight.

A nice, sweet little read, to this and the story before it. Always a pleasure to let a bit of SunLight in.

I can’t! How, can I describe this? Beautiful! No words! The emotion, I love it! <3

It was a really cute reading.

I never thought Twilight would propose to Sunset. I always thought Sunset would propose to Twilight.
I nearly screamed when Twilight pulled out the box. It was so beautiful and I started to cry when Twilight propose to Sunset. Is there a sequel to this? When is the wedding?

And this is definitely a nice follow up

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed them!

Hard to say. I didn't even plan to write this one originally, I had meant Tough Night to be a one-shot just because I'd never tried writing a shipfic before. But I really enjoyed doing it, so I wrote this followup.

I am thinking of writing another one of them sharing the news with all of their friends, I don't know if I'll write the actual wedding or not.

Fantastic follow-up to the prequel. Life goes on, and often in very positive ways. Thank you for this.

"Yeah, a bit, I guess. You, on the other hand, are just in time!" Sunset replied. She gestured toward the counter, where a plate of bacon and eggs sat next to a cup of coffee; black and strong, just how Twilight liked it in the morning. She turned back to the stove, where she was frying up another few pieces of bacon for herself.

Huh. Most fics have Sunset as Vegetarian, though I confess I can't recall off the top of my head if that's been established in canon or not (that's the trouble with reading so much fanfic - the lines between Canon and Fanon tend to blur).

Still, either way, that was immensely enjoyable and a great continuation from the last story.

Also, bit of advice, Twi - try and get Sunset to attend the meeting too. Not just for emotional support and her own magical knowhow, but because, between your skill with science and her skill with people, you could probably double the donation at least. Just a thought.

They had stayed up long past midnight, talking about nothing in particular while Twilight held Sunset close. Sunset liked to express her feelings through touch, especially when she was sad or upset, and Twilight was always happy to oblige. Twilight herself preferred to show her affection through acts of kindness and devotion—but, she'd learned, sometimes those acts could be as simple as offering her shoulder to a loved one who needed it.

Agreed, my family has helped me there during tough times as well. 😕

"I don't know about that," Sunset interrupted. "You invented a device that could detect and store magic when you were working all on your own, in high school . Give yourself some credit."

That eventually sucked it all up and turned you into midnight sparkle, but that last part was cinch's fault! :twilightangry2:

"Well, we know that this energy can change people's bodies. For better or worse, as we both know all too well. If we can learn to control the transformations, there may be possibilities to regrow missing limbs, fix genetic defects, maybe cure cancer!" She realized that she was practically shouting in her excitement, and shrunk back in her seat with embarrassment. "Of course it's all speculation at this point," she muttered. "But if we can transform people's bodies in a controlled manner, it could be the biggest medical breakthrough since the discovery of antibiotics."

I think your overthinking it twilight, especially the cure for cancer. 🙄

Indeed! Or, rather, I already have, but I'd like to give more. Right before I called you I donated ten thousand dollars to the lab you work at, with the condition that it be spent at your discretion to assist in your work.

:pinkiegasp:

Yup. Ten grand donated to our department, with your name on it. Congrats, looks like you impressed somebody yesterday.

Congratulations twilight! :pinkiehappy:

Twilight thought of her current situation and cringed. Of course she's going to say no. What were you thinking?! The two of them were their pajamas, in the kitchen of their rented one-bedroom house. Twilight hadn't even brushed her hair. This was not how you were supposed to propose to your significant other!

It's not a big deal twilight, I've heard stranger engagement stories than this. You'd be surprised where my grandfather proposed to my grandmother of all places. :ajsmug:

Twilight belatedly remembered the next step of this ritual. She pulled the ring from its box and delicately slid it onto Sunset's third finger. She then gasped as Sunset suddenly grabbed her arms and pulled her into a passionate kiss. She slid a hand behind Sunset's head and held her there, wishing the moment would never end.

Congratulations you two. :twilightsmile:
