A mane fit for a princess

Source

As the new ruler of Equestria, Twilight must learn one last thing from Celestia--the secret to the wavy mane.

And it's not what Twilight expected. At all.

Just a little impulse write I did in less than 2 hours. Hence, the proofreading may be a little spotty.

Somewhat inspired by my real life experience with a vibrating neck massager...

Just a random idea I had, based on the fact that the wealthy European nobility in the 1600s/1700s wore powdered wigs on a daily basis instead of using their own hair. And that was considered a privilege.

I made this in 1 and a half hours before I went to bed. You can take it for what it's worth...

You know... Twilight could always... you know, on those lonely nights... where the pain of celibacy becomes too much... just let Spi-

Nope. I'm gonna shut up now.

Or Brad, aka Flash Sentry. Or Starlight Glimmer. Or Trixie.

I'm not sure if royal concubines are a thing in Equestria, but I didn't include them in this story.

Bet this one would look better if it caught fire though. Actual cause of death for a few people in those days.

My head canon for Celestia and Luna has always been they have sex with each other in secret.

P.S. I plan to give Spike a motorized wig as well, in the shape of Rarity’s mane.

“More like getting laid,” Luna grumbled. She was slouching against the wall where the bed used to be. “Do you know how hard it’s been being celibate for 1000 years?”

"Luna, you were banished on the moon for a millennium."
"Isolation-induced hallucinations and dream magic are a potent and sorely tempting combination."

To be involved in a romantic relationship with somepony would complicate political relations, and lead to potential bias. Celestia and Luna had explained this very clearly to Twilight.

Twilight had asked how Cadence made it work, but then Discord had run into the room to let everypony know just how badly he'd ruined everything.

“I don’t think you understand, Twilight. Only the most important princesses of Equestria get the privilege of wearing a wig and tail attachment. Even Cadence is not of high enough status.”

"What about Mistmane?"
"Pillar of Beauty, remember? Who do you think invented them?"

Delightful silliness. Thank you for it.

Pretty funny I admit. Though it's obviously not true since manes start waving with strong magic as was demonstrated several times. But that's the fun with fanfics.

I'm not trying to market my story as being consistent with the canon, but...in my story Celestia does say this:

“While it is possible to make our mane and tail wave using magic, it requires comparatively more powerful magic than, say, opening a door. The near constant use of magic for such a trivial purpose as a waving mane is a waste of our alicorn magic. We created these motorized wigs and tails to reduce the effort required.”
