Celestia and Luna want to make Twilight into an alicorn. Twilight is not happy because of what being an alicorn would mean for her new life.

Pretty good so far, but I notice two things:

1) Cadence is Celestia's niece, not aunt.

2)

Think how wonderful it will be to be immortal. Unless you are unlucky enough to be murdered someday or you die in a freak accident, you will be immortal

Being immortal means being able to live through anything, including being murdered or dying in a freak accident.

Other than a few minor grammatical errors, I really like it.
Also, Twilight should totally become the alicorn. Totally.

i pick twilight :twilightsmile:

Rarity should become the alicorn not twilight.
:raritystarry::raritywink::duck:

Rarity, because I've never seen her becoming one.

2069372 i know of two where rarity becomes an alicorn duties and so you've grown wings

Twilight would be a better choice for the role of alicorn. She's better grounded, serious, knowledgable, intelligent. and when she blows her top, the ponies know to not stress her like that again, while Celestia and Luna could run damage control.
Rarity might be a better choice for social gatherings of the kingdom and wealthy, but Honestly, I just couldn't really see her in an administrative or authoritative position. While Rarity might not be a empty headed tittering fashonista bimbo, she also doesn't have mental fortitude, nor likely the desire for boring administrative or authoritative work. With her drama abilities, she'd be better off as a court spy, the royal ear to the ground, as it were. That would be how I'd see Rarity coming in useful. Playing off of those strengths of hers, whereas Twilight's would be more suited for the Administrative or Authoritative position. Also her organizational skills are top notch.

Rarity would reject the offer for the same reasons as Twilight.

The idea of Rarity with wings apeals to me more. Although I don't support species change, I would pick Rarity if I had to choose.

Eeenie Meenie Miney Moe.
I completely disagree with Twilight - she's going to see her friends die ANYWAY. So what if she thinks she'll follow them, she's still going to have to go through that same grief, that same survivor's guilt - that is, unless she dies first, and makes them have to grieve her.
She'll have to deal with a bit of change if she turns, yes, but it's change she can adjust to It's change that she can live with, if it means living forever. Because to live forever is to hold so many more memories to cherish. So many more lives that you can remember and honor.

That said, at the end of the day I think Twilight should turn. She's a much more efficient manager and more skilled at magic and stuff. Not to mention, she can turn her increased assets towards learning necromancy and developing immortality spells to use on the ENTIRE. FUCKING. WORLD.

I would say that None of the Mane 6 would wish to become Alicorns since they value their Friendship so much, Rarity would choose not to become one also because of her sister, the same would be for Applejack because of Applebloom and Rainbow Dash because of her biggest fan/should have been adopted little sister Scootaloo.

Thoughtful assessment of the benefits and pitfalls of immortality.  S3E13 kind of took away Twilie’s choice and she’s going to have to get to grips with it anyway!  As for Twilie vs Rarity, look what happened when Rarity had wings…
