idk if anyone remembers that post on tumblr abt a what if situation, with Fluttershy returning to the past and having to befriend pre-stone discord in order to go home, BUT……
the mane 6 ends up somewhere due to an Magical Incident!! Wowie!!
is this their timeline’s past? Who knows! Have they accidentally dimension hopped to the next universe over? ¯_(ツ)_/¯
All they know is that they’ve wound up in an era of Equestria that’s under the rule of discord, while their once peaceful princesses are waging both a civil war against him, and a first contact war with the countries around Equestria in order to maintain their country’s border
things are going Down
twilight is now a third alicorn that Celestia and Luna are very interested in. fluttershy desperately wants her highly traumatised and distant best friend back. dash and aj are very quickly becoming legendary heroes. and rarity and pinkie pie are single hoofedly making world peace a viable option
guard dog rarity scaring away the big bad ponies while fluttershy goes for a walk, yeehaw
I love her
first is based off the colour palette of the moon that I saw in a space photography exhibition in Hamilton!! A Visit to Tycho by Andrew McCarthy ❤️❤️
second palette is a bit closer to canon colours!! very blue toned but still wanted that patchy crater moon vibe
had fun w the horn tho!! Had the idea that alicorn funky magic personalises their horns somewhat. Her, luna’s horn is held together w a lil singularity!!
eldritch dragon misses pony friend, more at 11
more doodles……
captain wuzz is a shanty singing hooligan, and mcbiggun is the poor guy that has to deal with him. he just wants to kill squizzard and go back to his wife, but wuzz keeps pissing off every god on the pantheon
fluttershy is an ancient oath paladin creatively named shyflutter, who is the last worshipper of Entropy, God of Change, and she effectively makes her entire group immune to magic
princess luna is the goddess of moon and night, and patron of hopes, dreams and creativity. her eyes are closed bc she’s experiencing ppls dreams even while conscious and walking around
princess cadence is a toss up atm. She’s the ruler of the crystal empire FOR SURE!! but I don’t know if she should be a god who willingly abandoned her divinity to be w shining armour, or if she’s this AUs version of Helen of Troy.

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
unicorns!! specifically, rarity!!
in the polar opposite direction as pegasi, i think that unicorns would envision 'beauty' being decided by either how magically gifted you are. or, in rarity's case, how close you are to looking like a de-winged alicorn!
more than pegasi or earth ponies, i think that unicorns would hold the alicorns in extremely high regard, and set the majority of their beauty standards up against them. a unicorn is attractive based on:
1) how tall they are
2) how powerful they are, and
3) how distinctly their colouring sets them apart from the crowd while still looking clearly like a pony.
as a rare white unicorn w an incredibly stark purple/blue mane, rarity has the third in spades, along with the first due to her ancestral relation to felines.
while not having the sheer magical power of twilight, rarity has incredibly refined control that lets her levitate a large amount of different objects without ever making a mistake. i.e, controlling needles, spools, measuring tapes, and bolts of fabric while using the sewing machine at the same time.
this is all to say. the world is very very lucky that rarity became a seamstress instead of a model, bc the world would've been extremely screwed!!
oh!!
rarity had a bit of a wild youth in her teen years. she subscribed to the philosophy of 'work hard, party hard', and probably still would be if her friends weren't so allergic to canterlot!! one day she'll get fluttershy and applejack into a nightclub, mark her words!!
i posted this ages ago on reddit and twitter but never here, late gang OOP
fare thee well, among us era. you did us a world of good.
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
