The You I Fell In Love With

Source

A short one-shot where Sunset and Twilight go to a café to take a break during finals season. Twilight feels a little insecure over her new look, but Sunset is there to ease her fears. This one-shot is a character study of Sunset Shimmer and includes my personal headcanon about her relationships with the two Twilights.

To be fair, Human Twilight also has those long, twirly strands of hair on either side of her face (don't know if there's a name for them) that are fairly distinctive, but they also don't stick out as much as the glasses and ponytail/bun. Like, I didn't notice them consciously until an artist pointed them out, but looking back I realized how much difference they make and how weird it'd look if Pony Twilight had them or Human Twilight didn't.

In any case, very cute story. Always love these two together and this was just adorable and, though brief, did address the subject well, I thought.

“I still can’t get over the fact that you let your hair down today.” Sunset said. Her and Twilight were sitting together in a local café near the school. They had made plans with the other girls in their group, but their schedules didn’t align as well as they had hoped. Sunset didn’t mind the change too much. With finals just around the corner, it was getting harder to find some one-on-one time with Twilight that didn’t involve textbook readings or handmade flashcards. It was to be expected, though. What Sunset didn’t expect was for Twilight to show up at the café without her signature ponytail.

Imo, I wish we saw it more often when eqg still aired. Still, stories like this are the closest I'll get and I'm not complaining!!!

“Twilight?” Someone’s voice cut in. Sunset looked up and saw Flash Sentry walking up to them. “It’s good to see you back in town!” Twilight turned to look at him. His smile faltered when he noticed her glasses. Sunset felt like she could see the train of thought that crossed his mind, the same one she had when she first walked into the café. Without her hair up, Twilight looked much more like the other Twilight, the princess from Equestria. The only thing separating them now was a pair of thick-framed glasses on her face. There was a particular issue Sunset and Flash both faced in those few seconds. Not only did they become friends with the princess from Equestria, but they had grown to love her as well. They weren’t just happy to see their old friend again, it was more than that. Sunset felt it in the way her heart skipped a beat when she walked through those doors. She was sure Flash was feeling this as well.

If I was in their position, I'd just comment on it rather than question it seeing there wouldn't be a logic the princess would be at the cafe to begin with.

“Oh,” Flash said, awkwardly placing a hand on the back of his neck. “S-sorry about the mix up. I hope you girls have a good time. I’m just gonna… go over there now.” He forced out a laugh before heading to the other side of the café where his friends were sitting.

Some things never change.

“Of course not! She’s always writing to me about all these quests and battles she goes on in her world, and every day I realize more and more how different our two worlds are. The two of you live completely different lives. Sure this world is much more… tame than hers, and magic is much more unpredictable. But the princess has absolutely no idea what daily life is like here! She’s never learned how to drive a car, she never competed in the Friendship Games, she never had to go to a summer camp where the camp director went crazy and grew a magic wall of vines to keep everyone inside.” Twilight laughed. “My point is, that you are you . Your memories, your experiences, your life is what makes you different from her. And most importantly,” Sunset lifted one of her girlfriend’s hands and placed a gentle kiss on her knuckles. “You are the one I fell in love with, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.”

Lovely.

“I believe you.” Twilight smiled again. “And I love you too. I love you more than anything else in the world. In any world.”

A great way to end a perfect, albeit short, story!

A solid little ship fic. Plus, excellent choice with the cover art. I love their work. As far as feedback, think if you want to expand. Perhaps use another art piece and come up with another 1000 work short. *reminds self to get back to unfinished writing*
