Description

Yes, Tempest, it is.
 
I’m finally stating an age for him. I was kinda nebulous about it before in the Other Royal Sketchbook. I think I had him at about 2-3 when adopted before but I felt it just worked better if he was more aware of what all is happening.
 
And for the record, Starlight and Tempest are just friends/sorta-roommates, bonded over being reformed and taken in by Twilight. I also have no idea what Tempest’s cutie mark should be. I’ve used fireworks before but I’m not sold on it.

I believe that was a reference to Friendship is Witchcraft. In their version of the CMC’s introduction episode, Apple Bloom decided she wanted to be president when Applejack made an off-hand remark about it.
 
Applejack: Don’t you worry. In no time at all you’ll get your apple-mark, and then you can start working the apple farm until the day you die. Just like everypony in our family has since the dawn of time.
 
Apple Bloom: But my special talent might not even have to do with apples.
 
Applejack: Don’t be silly. We didn’t name you “Apple Bloom” so you could grow up to be the president.
 
Apple Bloom: Be the president? Be the president! Be the president!

the wing and lightning bolt represent her dexterity on the scooter, similar to sweetie belle’s musical note and star representing her talent as a star singer, and apple bloom’s apple and heart, representing her talent as the president of equestria.

I’d have to disagree there. Scootaloo has a cutie mark with, what I think is a sheild of some sort, and a wing on the inside. She’s really good at using the scooter when not crusading, but I see nothing that resembles a scooter, So I’d have to disagree the the cutie mark matches the name all the time.

Her real name is fizzlepop berrytwist, most ponies have cutie marks based on their names (limestone’s cutie mark is a lime and some stone,) so obviously her cutie mark is a bottle of soda. Raroty’s talent/cutie Mark is finding gemstones, and her career and passion is as a dressmaker, so it’s obvious that your cutie mark doesn’t absolutely define your career or abilities.

Well, I honestly don’t think that Silfoe was going this direction, now that I had time to think about it, plus, I was half asleep when the thought came to mind. But on the off chance, here it goes.
 
Silfoe mentioned Twi and Luna discovered a spell that allowed them to produce blood related children, without the need of a stallion.
 
Could it be that Tempest and Pterus’s mother spent a night together, and by adorable accident, Pterus was the result? Perhaps when trying to find records of Pterus’s father, he reveals to Twi and Luna his Mom said he had two moms and no dad.
 
Like I said, it’s too out of place.
 
 
@Dickard  
Meant to spell Pterus. Was using my phone, and sometimes it auto corrects on me and I don’t catch it. So Petrus must have been one of the closest auto corrects it could find.

That’s like saying you’re a doctor because you’ve been trained in first aid.  
Except worse, because she’s never had any training of any kind.

I wonder if she has had a chance to meet Flash Magnus?
 
Now that I think about it, at this point I think she would have a cutie mark cause she was serving under Pterus’s birth mother in this AU, and……….
 
I just had a crazy thought, but, I think it would be too out of place.

First off. Wow, they need to read up on what to tell four year olds. He’s just a toddler, and I don’t think he was angry.
 
And second, as for a cutie mark for Tempest, I would suggest two options, one she didn’t earn it yet, cause she hasn’t found her true calling yet, or two, perhaps a sword. Where Shining Armor and Petrus have sheilds as part of cutie marks, they’re more about defense, when you think about it, so a shield makes sense.
 
Tempest seems more for offense, so having a sword as part of her cutie mark at least, seems reasonable. That’s just my opinion though.
