Are ya winnin' son?
Damn, all parties are suffering from the blowout...and honestly I have mixed feelings on whether or not they should get back together
11062856
I think that they should eventually get back together, but it would be a mistake for Anon to take them back immediately or because he pittied them. They need to earn another chance.
Nice
a few minor flaws, but honestly this is a much better take at this whole situation than I was expecting and you can color me impressed. Good job my guy
" are they really not coming for me .?..."
that line stings man ....
Cadence seems pretty good at this whole relationship thing
Good chapter this one.
Gives everyone some breathing room and time to reflect.
And Go, Princess of Food! I feel like this was a good depiction of Cadence. She isn't the "Kiss and Makeup" that some people write her as.
This is the version that is down in the trenches in the mud and blood, fighting for Love the whole way.
I really like this depiction of Cadanve, though breaking Luna and Celestia's hearts is hard to watch.
This chapter is just.. Perfect. Not everything can be fixed with a simple apology. I love the realism of it, and how Cadence stood her ground with her choices. Thank you.
Anyone else wondering if the legitimacy of the marriage was/is questioned now that anon has been away from the castle for weeks?
Actually, I would have guessed that Princess Cadence, being the Princess of Love, wouldn't settle for a quick resolution (especially being that this was highly unlikely), and would rather want to ensure that the root of the issue was laid bare so things could be resolved if Anon eventually wished for this. But whether or not that happened would depend on how it was written. I'd say what I read here was perfectly done.
Fuck......... that hurts me in a very different kind of way.......

I'm left wondering how many ponies got banished to the moon for even suggesting it wasn't.
Oh my god... a great depiction/character of Cadance -- but poor Luna with that line, "I wish I'd never come back..." OUCH!
My girl Cadance doing her emotional chessmaster thing again.
I'm actually really happy Anon went this direction. It would feel very hollow if Anon did end up saying yes under the pressure of both his peers and former lovers. Letting him do it on his own terms (hopefully) will feel much more authentic.
It starting, no matter if they used a mask, it was real and Anon knows that. He knows it and that is what hurts, I wonder if he even asking 'do they actually like me? all this mess is just so they can get away from a law, they never really love me…right?'
I bet he needs to ask that question, ask them if this time it will be real. If this time they actually wish to be with him not because of a stupid law but because they feel in real love with him
why you making me want to cry on a holiday weekend? monster!
ok. yep. anon in this story is a fucknig huge peice of shit. first of all the second he was going to get married to the princess and they told him to keep any potential "suiters" for him a secoret, he fucks off to a bar and starts chatting up people. how fucking low can you get. and he has the audacity to get pissed off at the princesses. fuck this guy to the moon.

a foundation built on lies and lack of trust isn't worth standing upon.
Prediction: Things will get better. Not just because this story isn’t really aiming to be a tragedy, but also because at some point Anon’s bound to get his head out of his ass long enough to stop and consider that going all “You lied to me ONCE and so I can never trust you again!” is just perhaps not the most mature response to either the situation he found himself in or the very two princesses who originally set him up so he could live in relative peace and quiet in Canterlot in the first place when it turned out that there was no way to send him back home (touched on all the way back in Chapter 2, for reference). Note that I’m not for a moment suggesting that he still owes them anything for that -- that’d be kind of petty, and besides, his arrival does seem to be basically fairly directly Nightmare Moon’s fault --, but it definitely does say something about what kind of ponies they are when one is not currently busy being all sorts of angry at them.
Anon’s just going to need the time and opportunity to process everything, is all, and I for one don’t begrudge him that.
11063216
they where upfront from the begining really. knowing it was a political marriage. the only difference is that they actually fell in love with him. this sad sack of shit anon is just as at fault as they are. he bacisly went right away to get tail knowing that if he was caught he would spell doom for the princesses. and he did nothing really to hide it, flirty openly with another mare. even tho it was celestia.
really the princesses where not being other pony's, just there younger self's. and knowing that they when to check up on my to make sure i was ok and actually falling in love with me. and having such a hard time trying to break it off would be that fucking flattering its amazing. but no, he has to be a cock about it. they dident even really lie about anything. it was them, all be it in a younger form. they did not make him fall in love with him through deception, it was them. 100%
all the people that are downvoting my comment are all incels and have never had a relationship, or 2 brain cells to rub together.
...Well..... Shit!

Please, DO take my downvote, and go simp somewhere else. May even a troll like you never be gaslighted like Anon was here. What the sisters did is not something an "Oops, sorry" can fix. The "why" will be relevant after the "what" has healed over, if it does. It doesn't matter why you sticked a knife into someone's heart, but that you did. The twisting is just an added bonus.

Dude, your complaints about the downvotes are pathetic and factually incorrect. If my wife had wildly misled me about this much, we would be on very rocky territory - and if I had pulled this on her, I would not expect her to be all right with it.
I think the distinction you're missing is: He knew that 'it' was a sham from the beginning, but the issue is WHAT 'it' was. He knew the official visible relationship would be a sham. He didn't expect his actual emotional attachments to be false in any way as well. From his point of view after the revelation, until maybe just now, it looked like they have trying to keep him happy and quiet so he wouldn't mess this thing up for them. The nobles make noise? Well, I guess we have to drop the unicorn personas and fall back on doing it in our regular forms!
Finding out that two pairs of ponies who you have very different emotion sets towards are actually the same is going to be seriously confusing and distressing.
"Sometimes forgiveness isn't as simple as a "I'm sorry" and "Okay, I forgive you""
So much truth in this,
I like the story but I have one major question. Didn't you mention Anon having a home a good distance away at the start of the story? Just curious why he is spending 2 weeks with Javelin
11063225
Except it wasn’t just the lie. There’s also the fact that originally he was meant to be nothing but a scapegoat that could only have a hidden relationship because of a fuck up that Celestia made and needed his help with. Combine that with them lying about being the 2 people he actually started to like, and its understandable why he’s like this. This whole thing was a bunch of bullshit from the beginning, they just never expected to actually catch feelings for him. So its not just “One lie=no trust”
11063498
Like Raven said in the last chapter, Anon wants to avoid anything that even reminds him of the princesses. The estate that they gave him at the beginning is just a reminder, so he's avoiding it and crashing with the only pony he really considers a friend at this point.
11063558
Gotcha, makes sense
11062865
"I am the liquor, Javelin"
11063216
True. However, a foundation isn't worth anything if someone refuses to build on it. The Princesses may have lied by their form (being disguised as unicorns), but all of the three didn't even attempt to do much social interaction before the bar, and Anon was told at the very beginning that it was a marriage of convenience (though he was later told he could make some relationships after the marriage was solidified). Then, when the lies are revealed, he is told at the same time that those disguises weren't only just the Princesses as unicorns (so technically not truly a disguise), but they fell for him (making the marriage as more than a convenience). What does Anon do? He focuses on the fact they hid who they were, and ignores all other information given to wallow in his self-pity that the ponies he liked were 'fake' (despite being told that the personalities he saw were Celestia and Luna without the Princess duties, and the unicorn forms were how Celestia and Luna would look if they were unicorns) for several weeks. In short, Anon didn't build on the foundation before the disguises, tore down all that was built when the truth was revealed, and refused to rebuild after.

It’s fascinating for us because we have the perspective to see the whole picture, yet still make conjecture upon the different facets.
And it’s a unique look on how a single lie can turn into a whole web that just ensnares everyone involved.
The princesses were in the wrong, no doubt, even with good intentions (the road to hell and all that), yet Anon lacks the perspective to see that they really were falling for him. Which is why they had such a hard time coming clean. Right now, Anon can only focus on the lie, the hurt. Cadence was brilliant in this by making Anon face that hurt so he could move past it. And hopefully give him the perspective he needs to properly handle the situation, rather than simply reacting.
11063216
Unrelated to the arguments but the CIA saying that is too funny
Tell me what y’all think
I really don’t like inkwell. She’s still not considering the way anon was impacted and expects him to just suck it up for the princesses sake. He’s an individual, and from the very beginning, they didn’t take seriously enough that he has his own life when they strong armed him into this relationship. I mean, come on. He doesn’t owe them, and then they trampled his trust by lying to him after he decided to help them. Then inkwell comes along and just expects him to deal with it, putting him in a difficult situation with her plan to force them in the same room together. She really doesn’t respect him as a person, and it seems she sees him as someone undeserving of any personal choice in his life, as if her and the princesses opinion somehow negate the validity of any feelings he has. She expects everything to be magically mended, by simply having cadence there, and then she lashes out at cadence when the obvious happens. She’s plain childish!

Pretty much how I felt reading this. It's irritating how she and jav can't seem to comprehend that people don't need to be with someone else to be happy, and that they aren't really obligated to be together outside of just keeping up appearances for the law. Obviously he will forgive them in the end (Unless Crimson rick rolls all of us but I doubt it) but them seemingly ignoring what he wants and trying to force them to mesh after everything that's happened is getting pretty grating. I'm just glad this wasn't some lame cliche instant forgiveness route and we might have some genuine healing/forgiveness from a MC.
Urgh, this better be the last good chapter, my heart can't take this anymore!
Wait. Is that Shining Armor on the cover?
I'm looking forward for him to forgive them I can see where he's coming from and why they did what they did that being said I wish they would just make up for my hart can't take it 😢
11063960
No, that's Javelin on the chapter. He's my friend's oc, but he just happened to design him similarly to Shining Armor's design.
11064325
Oh. For some reason I've been picturing him as dark-ish grey this whole time.
11064611
Nah. He's just kinda off white. Like, a bluish white, but still white.
11063274
That isn't what happened in the story, though. From back in chapter 7:
And then at the bar:
Your posts might be getting so many downvotes because you're not talking about what actually happened in the story, but rather what you projected onto it. Also, given the way you worded it:
I'm not sure you're a credible source for relationship evaluation and advice.
11063593
Using what Anon knows, and only what Anon knows, prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the Princesses aren't lying about their feelings and that this isn't purely about regaining their protection from the nobles learning about their relations. And before you say "but Celestia never manipulated Anon!" remember that at the bar, Anon said that he was going to leave, but Celestia begged him to give the princesses one more chance. That's shows that she is perfectly willing to lie if the result benefits her.
By the way, saying "but Jav/Raven says 'x'" is not a valid source of information either as they just blatantly lied and manipulated him to get him there, and on top of that Raven has already shown that she is willing to take Celestia at her word. For all Anon knows, Celestia could be lying to her as well.

He sure told the truth. Except for all the times he lied. Like 11064853 pointed out.
11065173
Also, the very first thing they did after tentatively agreeing to the idea was to drug Anon during the engagement announcement.
11065344
No way, he's totes telling the truth just like Jesus did. He couldn't even find a ponified version of that image to use. I'd be surprised if that isn't an alt.
