Every action taken is like dropping a pebble in a pond, creating ripples that extend ever outward. Every choice has consequences, good and bad... Putting on a Crown may have changed Sunset Shimmer's life...but it also Changed two worlds...

Huh... I have to say, much like Sunset, I didn't even notice Stupid Little Voice was gone for a while...
And now Sunset's locked it away for now, but for how long?
But I guess that does confirm Mental Sunset is just part of Sunset's consciousness transfered to Twilight and protecting her... I think...
Sunset doesn't know it yet, but she has made a cardinal, terribly understandable error.
How is Sunset that smart and that stupid at the same time?
Demon Shimmer . . Sunrise . . Whatever . . was allways on her side.
She allways did what was neccessary to help get Sunset what Sunset really wanted.
So of course, if Sunset really wants to protect Twilight, then her Demon Core will do exactly that.
Even if it means hurting Sunset herself, because she is that stupid and the Super Ego is that determined.
Or rather simplified:"If it helps Sunset, it helps her other side"
Twilight:
Sunset: 💥👿
I'm so nervous/excited about the chaos that Sunset just did to herself 💀
Sunny can't just chill and be happy. She has to find a way to doubt herself no matter what. You're gonna need that Demon/ extra aggressive side real soon Fireball.
The BIG concern here is that Stupid Little Voice is implying that it's not just Sunset and her in there, but possibly other aspects as well that can manifest and that only the one was dominant. Also, it possibly means that unless Sunset had cast some sort of protection spell while they were making love that Twi is now completely exposed and defenseless from Cinch and Sidh magic.
No good can come from denying a part of yourself.
I have a feeling Sunsets going to have a hard time keeping that voice down from now on
uhhhhmmmmm, so that was fun. also succubus behaviour right there Stupid Little Voice, tut tut tut.
does that mean if daydream appears that stupid little voice and her will just be like the angel and demons on her shoulders-
also sunset you can be rlly dumb sometimes yk? "hey, cinch, heres my gf, u can have her"
tut tut tut
That may end up being a mistake, Sunny-buns.
Welp, looks like Sunset's gone to the Harry Dresden method of dealing with voices in her head. Though where he had to deal with a Fallen Angel, Sunny's got the problem of this being quite legitimately part of her... and something that may always have been. Cutting off a core part of you, especially if magic here works like I think it will, is going to stunt her strength at best and is going to harm her physically at worse. Either way? Take back what I said the other chapter. Sunset just handed her girlfriend to Cinch on a silver platter.
Goddamn it Sunset. I'm getting why you don't trust it, but you just tossed Twi to the wolves and patted yourself on the back for it.
Granted, SlV really needed to do a better job explaining. But it wouldn't be Sunset, even just part of her, without some sort of self-sabotage

There's definitely some tendencies in their personalities and interaction, isn't there? Cady has already explained a great deal to young Twilight, and of course, Twilight's the exact kind of person to go do research on a subject to get answers. She's not naïve or in the dark at all about what she's feeling. She's just not...quite ready or able to voice it out loud, lol.
Each of the families in the story are different, just like the girls are all different. We see a lot of the Sparkle household, and they sort of do represent a family who "has their shit together." They're big on mental health, communication, and familial love and affection, but they've also got the healed over scars that got them there. Velvet and Night arent perfect, their marriage and life together has had issues, but they're more...through that personal growth journey than is really drawn attention to, and it puts them in a unique place to help love, guide, and support the kids as they go through it. Other families in the story arent quite so...put together. Rarity's parents are kind of a mess, AJ's family is "broken but still good", Dash's parents both work hard but try to arrange things so that at least one of them is there for her at any given event, Fluttershy's family is a disaster of toxic proportions because her pustule of a brother gets his attitude from their paternal grandfather and her parents are doormats, and Pinkie...is kind og the Pink Sheep in her family.
so yeah, Twilight's family is meant to be an example of a good, supportive family. You're supposed to want a family like that--Sunset does, and most of the story is from her perspective.
The Games are going to be something alright. :P

Its actually funny, because I did have several points through the arc where Sunset has noticed the voice's absence and commented to herself on it. And I'm surprised more people didn't notice it--I've never left something like that dangling without a plot reason.
How long? What will locking it away do? Is Stupid Little Voice also Mental Sunset? Hmmmm....So many questions...
11833312
"You have chosen...poorly."

Fear is not an intelligent emotion. People do really stupid shit when they are afraid. History (and the news) is full of examples of people acting out of fear. The only less intelligent emotion than fear is anger, and the benefit to anger is that for most people, anger is a short term thing. Fear is not. Fear lingers. Fear seeps into you.
She's reacting out of fear. Fear of a type of creature that is the closest thing to absolute evil as her culture understands it. Fear of her own failings, of the knowledge of just how terrible she had become to turn into one. Fear of becoming that being again. Fear of falling, and in that fall hurting those she's come to care for.
Its really an extension of the fear and worry about her rage. She has had drilled into her, her whole life, that her rage is a terrible monster and that its all her fault and responsibility to contain. THere are no excuses or justifications for rage. When you act out in anger, when (not if) it gets away from you, its YOUR fault. Always. No one ever says "oh, its okay, you have a rage issue" the way is said for literally any other mental problem, disability, or struggle. She's doing what she's always done--Push the thing down and put it in a box to control it, because its too dangerous to let roam free.
She doesnt see it as a tool. She doesnt see that its acting in her interests, or at her deepest desires. She sees a weapon. A monster. A thing that will cause nothing but pain and suffering if she doesnt immediately cage and contain it.
Is that healthy? Hardly. Just like rage, the dark parts of ourselves need to be understood as part of ourselves in order to be better people. But...that's a journey unto itself, and not easy when society and culture tells you to be afraid of those things. She's not there yet, and fear makes her stupid.

*lots of cool explosions.*
*sunglasses*
Hehe.
11833396
She was happy, til SLV opened its mouth, lol.
11833406
There's some definite questions as to what is going on inside Sunset. Time will tell, I suppose.
As for Twilight being vulnerable...well. We'll see there too.
11833483
Cant keep a good voice down?
Or would that be "cant keep a good demon down?"
Hmmm...
11833717
So fluffy. Its like being buried in kittens.
11833727
Suspicious, aint it?
*Cackles*
You're assuming Daydream is scheduled to show in the games. :P
11834017
"Not my finest moment."
11834472
*smiles wickedly*
And yes, this will have consequences. Of course it will. That's basically the through line in this story--For every action, a consequence.
11834767
Sunset is definitely not thinking straight.
11835460
Welcome to the story! I do hope you enjoy your stay with us, and look forward to seeing you in the comments! :}
11835479
*nods* Not every story is for every person, and I completely respect that you aren't huge on EqG. If this story is something you end up liking, I'll consider that a compliment to our writing/storytelling. If you don't that's okay--you were taking a leap, and that doesn't always pan out. If nothing else, know that we're happy to hear you're giving Rubicon a chance.
I will warn you, however, that this isn't just a side story set within canon. This starts out fairly close to actual events, with some minor alterations, but diverges with things that occur during Rainbow Rocks. After Rainbow Rocks ends, it heads in a bit of its own direction, with differences becoming more pronounced as time goes by. Major events will still be treated like touchstones, though the circumstances and actual "what happens" may only bear surface resemblance to the canon versions.
Hopefully, you're still willing to give us a chance! :}
11835526
Really? Huh... must've forgot. With a story as long as this, some things tend to get lost in favor of major events.
11835526
hmmm, tbh i dont really think she will be due to the nature of the fanfic with the fear of magic taking over.
if it did, a devil and angel on the shoulder would be hella funny to me (dont mean for that to sound pushy or anything-)
Oh my goodness I thought this was abandoned until I saw recent comments from yesterday and then I realized..
I can't wait to read and especially because sciset
11835536
Yeah, that's fair. :}
11835726
11836096
There's definitely plenty of fluff in the story to squeal over, promise. :}
11836391
You're fine. We dont mind the enthusiasm. Only person I've ever "told off" was someone who got very detailed in the comments about what NSFW fetish they though we should do. (back in like chapter 20)
11837228
Nope. Not abandoned. Updates weekly. If I have to take a week or two off for stuff, I announce it in the author's notes. Other than that, I take off every December because of holidays, birthdays, and family shenanigans.
11837627
You are correct. I usually catch those, but every once in a while, one gets by me. Thanks for pointing it out. :} Fixed it.
Mental breakdown.
