Set 3 years and a month after Spike and Photo Finish wedding, the changeling are back, though they come in peace. Spike was there just to document what was happening, The Princesses didn't trust the media with the truth, he didn't want to end up engaged to Chrysalis because of it. Can Spike make any of this work? What about Photo Finish how does she feel about this? What about Roseluck or both of his children or his friends for that matter? What is Chrysalis thinking she is going to gain with any of this, and what is she really after?

This story includes a pairing that i have never seen done, and am surprised not to find anything one so read and enjoy. Set with an older Spike x Photo Finish

Photo Finish comes to Ponyville for the first annual Flowers and Friendship Carnival set up by Princess Twilight to find true beauty but is put off by a hard rain. Twilight letting her stay inside of the castle along with others awaiting the festival, but in her pursuit of beauty she meets someone broken by past events and sees the chance to make more beauty.

P.S. This is not a one shot.
