Fan/gift (mainly me fanboying, though!) art of a scene from @asklostcelestia that I like that I wanted to try drawing out!

Hidden

Finally, after spending She-knew-not how much time in that accursed tower, barely escaping from the group of assassins sent after her, and running until her hooves ached, Celestia and Sky could rest.

By the might and dutiful work of Sky Warden, she had survived, and she owed her life to him, though he said she owed him not. Now they had run a great distance, and Sky said they were near a shelter.

Stepping into the cave, hidden behind the crown of a tree, Celestia could not believe her eyes, for though the cave was pitch-black, beautiful gems shone from many stalactites, hanging from the roof.

Immediately upon entering, Celestia sat down, and nearly collapsed from exhaustion, had it not been for Sky, who caught her, as she fell. Though she said nothing, she smiled, and nodded to thank him.

With a stoic demeanour, characteristic of a trained soldier, Sky nodded back, though he smiled not, as he helped her down. After quietly asking her to be cautious, he turned around to guard the cave.

While Sky sat at the mouth of the cave, looking through the leaves before him, Celestia looked over his armour, yet she recognised it not. She did not understand; which war was it, that he mentioned?

In the silence, Celestia could hear much. Every time Sky shifted his body, even the tiniest bit, he inhaled sharply, and she knew why when she saw many feathers, stained a dark red, beneath his wing.

Without turning around, somehow, Sky knew Celestia was looking at him, but he only sighed, and told her to get some rest. He would stand guard at the entrance, and they would head out in the morning.

Many thoughts and questions arose within her mind. Though she was wary of him, as he had selflessly saved her numerous times, getting injured in the process, she knew she could trust him. She had to.

Still, as she laid down, she made sure to keep an eye on him, although she knew not whether she did so out of caution for herself, or care for him. A smile grew on her face as she slowly fell asleep.

Neither yet knew what the other thought of them…

proper ref now that orion finally has a permanent fit :] some fun facts below the cut

he's ambidexterous!

while Millie is the pet he brings to fights and such, he also has a whole collection of pet octopuses who stay at home

no seriously there's zero relation to grandmother raven, his wings were a gift from artemis. he needs to spend time around stars to be able to fly-- if he spends too long indoors/underground or in a world with permanent cloud cover they're basically useless

his freckles glow :]

sometimes he does artemis's job when she's busy with beastmoon, and uses his brush to paint the night sky

in terms of biological age, he's the oldest of my wizards! technically not immortal but he does age MUCH slower than the average human.

he keeps his hood/mask down most of the time, only putting it up when he's going to be flying for a long time. it gets cold up there!

The girlbossification (negative) of Celestia flattened her character so much in the fandom. It’s just this image.

An AU where Cadence can see the red threads that connect soul mates. However red threads are always subject to change due to how someones life has changed for them and around them. Sometimes someone can just not have a red thread. She always saw her Aunt Celestia without one, but recently a red thread has been spawning into existence for her. Cadence couldn't be happier, and has been trying to follow the red thread to it's end to find Celestia's soul mate.

thought abt focalors + tsaritsa sagau fic bc it'd be funny as hell to throw them in a room together but now its actually got me thinking a little too much.......similar but only in the barest sense and complete opposites..one of them fearing celestia and the other trying to bring celestia down.

One thing that fascinates me about the connected Hoyoverse titles (honkai impact 3rd, genshin impact, and honkai: star rail) is the idea of frameworks. Each game has different worldbuilding—the honkai in hi3, celestia, archons and gods, and the abyss in genshin, and finally the aeons, paths, and stellarons in star rail. But since they’re all within the same universe, isn’t it possible that they may contain the same things but with different names? What if the abyss is the honkai? What if celestia is the honkai, opposed to the progress of human civilization as they are? And what if the honkai, in turn, is a manifestation of a stellaron?

Guard

It did not take long before the Princess fell asleep, after which Sky sighed deeply, and laid down, guarding the cave entrance. It had been a busy day, and Sky feared the coming days would be busier.

Though exhaustion had yet to catch up to him, still, while he stood guard, he made sure to rest. As he laid there, alone with his thoughts, his mind started to drift to Celestia, sleeping behind him.

Turning around to the exhausted Princess, he smiled for a brief moment, before he put his facade up again. He knew, whether by duty or another reason, he was bound to her, and he would stay with her.

At that moment, he flinched, and lifted his wing to check a great wound, hidden beneath a couple of feathers. He had to be cautious, so he grabbed a small medic bag from his pouch to clean the wound.

But even though Sky had been trained to fight through the pain, now, since he had no need to fight, he felt every tiny move. Eventually, he gave up, and laid down again, frustrated and in great pain.

Then, Sky heard light hoofsteps, slowly approaching him from behind, and he sighed again, before he tried to turn to tell the Princess to rest. But his pain was great, and for a moment, he spoke not.

Yet, without a word, Celestia laid down by him, looking at his wound and the medic bag next to him. Sky clenched his teeth and folded in his wing, and stoically told the Princess he would be alright.

But Celestia shook her head and took the small bag with her magic, pulling out a needle and thread, before looking at Sky, and nodding. For a split second, his facade shattered, and his lip quivered.

Turning away from her, Sky lifted his wing for her, whereafter Celestia took his hoof, and quietly, yet sweetly said to squeeze her hoof should the pain be too much. He nodded, after which she began.

Not long after, Celestia had treated the wound, while Sky only squeezed a few times. She cleared up the supplies as Sky got up, but Celestia put her wing around him and said she would take the watch.

With a growing smile on his face, Sky slowly closed his eyes…

On your Equestria Girls rewrite, pretty tragic how Sunset used to be friends with the Rainbooms (albeit only close with Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy back then), what was the reason why she turned mean? And what caused her initial friendship with the Rainbooms to end before the first movie's events?

Sunset Shimmer in the first movie has a gigantic yet fragile ego, so I took that and made it into her fatal flaw: it's a horrible superiority complex hiding some unaddressed abandonement issues. And the root of all that is her attachment to Celestia and the (very misguided but unfortunately not entirely wrong) belief that Twilight replaced her as Celestia's favourite. It was the reason she first portal-hopped into the human world (rather than the "ough i want so much power" from the comics).

In the human world, she no longer had "God's Specialest Girl" privileges, but that actually helped her heal a bit. A mix of RD's tough love and Fluttershy's kindness made her mellow out a bit, and despite still not being a saint (she is rather prickly), it was enough to let her walls down and consider the human 5 her friends. And despite not telling them the entire truth about equestria and ponies and all that, she eventually tells them her backstory, in a roundabout way. And they manage to convince her that maybe it was a really rash decision to run away from home, and she should at least give her "family" a chance to prove to her that they still love and appreciate her.

So she goes back to Equestria when the portal opens again, ready to confront Celestia and/or Twilight. And she sees this

And she recognizes the ponies in the stained glass.

And she sees Twilight there among them, right where she would've been.

And it proves in her head that she was right all along. That Twilight really did replace her. And worse, that rather than fighting for her rightful place as Celestia's champion, she'd just left and allowed Twilight to take it without raising a hoof.

She loses it.

She runs back through the mirror (not without startling a few of the castle staff) and, irrationally furious, lashes out at the human 5 for... a lot of things, really. For convincing her to go back, for betraying her like that (she knows her friends aren't really the ponies in the stained glass, but she's having a breakdown and her mind is kinda conflating her two lives together), etc etc. She becomes extremely inflammatory and unfriendly (can't be abandoned if you push everyone away first), though for some incomprehensible reason RD and Flutters stick around, and decides that she will indeed return and exact her revenge against the world that did not value her as they should have. (Just like a certain Princess of the Night)

That's where we find her at the beginning of the rewrite.
