In her short life, Diamond Tiara has accomplished so much. And today, she has achieved her goal of becoming mayor. Sheʼs elated, of course, but what does that mean for her future?
In her long life, Mayor Mare has accomplished so much. It is time to step aside and spend her days in peaceful retirement. Sheʼs elated, of course, but how does one leave behind the past when itʼs defined you for so long?
The past and the future meet in the middle and together, come to an understanding about the present.

BRAVO!!!! It’s so good to see a Diamond Tiara fic, and this gives Mayor Mare a much needed focus as well. I appreciate how you’ve handled the two characters interacting, and I’d most certainly read a series continuing in this direction.
Cozy and not catering, simple but not plain, straightforward and right into the spot
Good read
I had thoughts of doing something kind of like this myself. But you did better than I ever could've done.
The fact that Diamond's not even calling her "Mother" says volumes.
"That's what I thought. Then we ended up with the worst turnaround in the nation."
Good concept here. I'd have loved to have seen the confrontation between Diamond and Spoiled, but that's arguably outside the scope of this passing of the torch. Nice work all around. Thank you for it and best of luck in the judging.

Nearly dropped my phone in shock when I saw that FoME commented on my story.
But thank you for the compliment.
Glad you noticed.
And who knows? Maybe one day, I will write about Tiara and Spoiledʼs falling out. I also wanted to explore Tiara and her relationship with Mayor Mare more in depth, but unfortunately, I ran out of time for the contest.

Of course! Again, I certainly hope you’ll make a series out of it. Though I probably wouldn’t mind taking a crack at it myself or in a joint venture
Good short story that has the scene and characters filled out well. I like it.
This was a very touching read, I loved the dynamic between Diamond Tiara and Mayor Mare. I really enjoyed what you did here.

It would be an honor. Iʼve never had any of my works translated before, so Iʼd appreciate it. Just send me the link when youʼre done. I would love to see the final product.
“But you donʼt speak Chinese.”
“Shut up, self.”
Amazing. Simply amazing. Wonderful job and a great pair.

Thank you so much! Like I said before, I donʼt speak Chinese, but I am beyond honored that someone find my story good enough to translate it.
And donʼt worry about taking too much time. Itʼs okay.
The May Pairings contest must have had some insane competition for this not to place.

Competition was tough this year, but thank you so much for the kind words.
A fun pairing, and one we don't see very much. I always like seeing MM getting the respect she deserves.
