Unicorns!! Specifically, Rarity!!

element of magic vs element of magic!!

quick colour blocking and sketch. how would a Celestia of thousands of years ago react to a bunch of her (supposed) subjects rejecting her commands and defending a tyrannical (albeit depressed) discord?

WELL

I imagine that, similar to how twilight is a prodigy of magic in the modern age, Celestia was the same back in her prime. the key difference between the two is that twilight wanted to learn everything, while Celestia and Luna were forced to prioritise and develop combat magic over everything else due to how violent the world was back then

they’re consuming all of my waking hours. a bunch of scenes I’m envisioning in my head but can’t seem to actually write down in my fic

i like to imagine Pegasus as a chimera race like griffons, hence the good relationship between the two of them

griffons would be a carnivorous chimera of predatory birds and cats. Pegasi would be a herbivorous variant between ponies, birds, and cats

I feel like the other two pony races would find the pegasi vaguely off putting bc of that. Pegasus would look very different from each other, and unicorns/earth ponies would struggle to see where the griffon starts and the pony begins

Fluttershy is likely seen as rather undesirable by other pegasi bc of the fact that she just looks like a winged pony. She doesn’t look particularly unique, and she isn’t a strong flier or powerful in general, so other pegasi would probably rate her a tentative 3 at best, and that’s only bc her lion eyes are insanely wicked

however, the other races would think she’s insanely stunning bc of that. They’d consider her ethereal and almost angelic, and that’s definitely one of the reasons she’d be hiding out in the fringes of ponyville. She’s either mocked in the sky or stared at in the towns/cities, so there’s rlly just no winning

more post infection fluttershy!!

she wakes up and miss maam has been turned completely to stone. she doesn’t have the need to eat or sleep or anything, and she doesn’t have any sense of sensation. she can hear and see, but doesn’t feel or smell anything. She’s able to talk but only barely, and her voice fails more often than not.

her body is almost wholly stone, except for the magic that holds her together. it’s an incredibly strong magic that doesn’t seem to diminish— which is rlly good, bc the moment she’s not stone, the infection will finish running its course and it’ll be a ✨shitshow✨

might tweak the design more as I fiddle around with this!! For now, I think the stone skin and the forget-me-note are pretty integral parts of her design

OKAY BUT!!

guys what if Fluttershy was an oath of the ancients paladin in Guy’s Night’s O&O game

I’ve spent the better half of today world building an entire campaign for two ponies, a dragon, and a draconequus to enjoy. I don’t even spend this much time prepping for my own weeks sessions YIKES

the mlp gang plays world of warcraft!! Combining my two godforsaken special interests together yayyy

after the events of the series, with everyone spread out across equestria, they all decide to dedicate themselves to one night of gaming a week to hang out! They decide to play spike’s latest obsession: world of warcraft

twi plays a pandaren arcane mage bc she likes that they’re trying to preserve their history, as well as their harmonious and neutral way of life. the mage part is very obvious

flutters is a highmountain Tauren resto/guardian druid! taurens are chill and gentle and very spiritual, and she likes the big moose horns she gets from the allied race version

pinkie is a goblin!! a goblin outlaw rogue who somehow managed to replace the in game pistol shot with her party cannon and, to this day, none of her friends figured out how she did that. she chose gobby bc they match her crackhead vibe and her gluttony for finger foods

aj is ye olde classic combo of Tauren Prot/Arms warrior from thunder bluff! unlike the others, she didn’t have much of a reason why she chose that race. She just liked how tall and big they are, and thought the bull horns would work well with her hat. Hint: they do!!

The rest are playing alliance!! Dash, Spike, Rarity and the princesses coming soon……. Maybe…..

guy discord is an eccentric weirdo w no social skills who manages to, somehow, consecutively trip upwards from rock bottom. gal discord is walking sex w a wolf cut, a fantastic sense of humor and a revenge streak

Fluttershy is down bad

Applejack thinks they should just hold hands alrdy

mlp infection in 2025 yahoo

a vague idea. An au where, after the infection spread, discord only had the power to snap it out of existence by combining his own pool of magic with another entity that had just as much power- which, in this Equestria, doesn’t exist. The only other alternative was siphoning the magic out of enough creatures to amass a similar equivalent- which would’ve wiped out the entire nation.

instead, twilight came up w the idea of siphoning the magical potential out of one pony, but across every currently existent multiverse- which is the equivalent of infinite power, due to there being infinite possibilities. However, it comes at the cost of erasing one pony completely out of existence

all of them were willing to sacrifice themselves, but everyone had someone relying on them— except for Fluttershy. Her parents, much like the others, had died early to the infection, and her brother is plenty able to take care of himself, unlike the young foals and children that rely on her friends. Plus, already at risk of turning due to recently being bitten, she’s the most reasonable one to sacrifice since she’ll die anyway

they do it. discord looks her in the eyes as he snaps his claws. and then she’s gone.

Except, she wakes up.

sketches!! there’s a ton of fun to be had w the using thicker brushes and a simpler style, but I did miss fine lining

applejack prettyyyyyy
