Nightly Discussion #3974

 

Artist: AngelitaRacoohn

Well, Luna thought it was a funny joke! Good evening, folks! Time for nightly chatting. 

Discussion: Will Twilight Sparkle a Better Leader Than Celestia?

The world of Equestria is pretty filled with horrible things happening at any given moment. At least from the years we got to spent with cartoon poni. They have dragons clogging cities with smog, fillies trying to drain magic from everyone, a literal god of chaos running around doing whatever he wants, and even minor political squabbles between groups of ponies. It's not an easy place to lead at all.

Do you think Twilight will do it better than Celestia? She seems to be more powerful at least. Can she handle the throne as the new head of Equestria?

Fanfiction (Scouted): But Can You?

[Shipping][Sad]

Author: RunicTreetops

Description: Sometimes, my mind wanders towards my sister-in-law. How she used to get so excited to see me, how her eyes used to glow with an optimism and love you just didn't see from anypony else.

How that glow disappeared one fateful afternoon.

It was supposed to be a normal meeting, a chance to catch up. That was when she asked me the question, one that I thought quite silly at the time.

But Can You?
