Poor Celestia she must suffer the jerk paradox. So desirable that no one thinks they would stand a chance and so no ever asks her out. Then the only people who do are the losers who hit on everyone and are so used to rejection they don’t care about striking out.
Welp Twilight, if you don’t want the mare that you’re fanatically loyal to to end up disappointed, you have only one option: turn yourself into a stallion.
TS pretends to be the mystery admirer wearing a cloak. It’s painfully obvious.
1a. Celestia is secretly heartbroken. The ponies find a touching way to cheer her up.
1b. Celestia laughs it off, being the responsible adult figure she is. Telling Twilight how much she appreciates them and she does not really want love in the first place.
1c. TWILESTIA
They luck out; they find a stallion who’s willing to go on a date with Celestia.
2a. but he’s a jerk. They unmask him as a villain, but before TS could confront him Celestia steps in and blasts him away with the power of a thousand suns. They all go out for ice cream.
2b. but he’s too intimidated by her title and eventually flees. Move on to 1a,b,or c.
2c. he’s Mac. They have a pretty good time. Bronies everywhere write Luna-Mac-Celestia love triangle fics. Andy Price writes a Cheerimac/Celestiamac one.
Yeah if I gave an impression that the “Fic” was a 1:1. Then my apologies I should have been more clearer in stating that the Image only reminded me of that Fic, due its similarity.
