Season Finale & Debut

[shine_on_armor]

 Okay, mun. I'm glad you're excited, really. But you might be overdoing it a little.

Anyway, I'm glad things went off without a hitch... er, the second time. Twilight and her friends really came through for us. I feel bad about yelling at her now.

In retrospect, I should have realized that wasn't the real Cadence. We never argued about anything, but me and that... Changeling argued at least once a day. Ugh, my head still hurts.

All in all? I'd definitely call this the best wedding ever. Now I just want to relax with my wife on my honeymoon. Somewhere nice and quiet, with no evil shape-shifting bug-ponies.

You can't be blamed for not noticing, Shining. Trust me, I know how much effort it takes to keep a spell that big up, and from the way you were saying it, you'd had it going for several weeks or longer already. Even if that changeling wasn't screwing with your heart, you weren't as focused as you would have needed to be, considering how you feel for Cadence.

I have to wonder why you didn't find it weird that she started referring to herself as "Mi Amore Cadenza", though - Cadence NEVER used that name before.

[shine_on_armor]

It's 'Mi Amore Cadenza Armor' now. But you're right. The name was a big giveaway.

I guess I was too distracted with everything.

[mommy_twi]

Magic can be a dangerous thing when in the wrongs hooves. It's a good thing none of her spells were permanent.

[shine_on_armor]

Tell me about it.

I just want to spend my honeymoon forgetting this all happened.

[magicalrealist]

It wasn't your fault; that Changeling took advantage of you, but she won't be a problem anymore.

I still wish you could've told me sooner about all of this, but I'll let it slide this time.

[shine_on_armor]

Hey, things had been piling up. Wedding, shield, brain-washing. I had a lot on my plate.

[friendship_reporter]

You did the best you could.

Maybe it's just me, I like the sound of "Shining Cadence" more.

[magicalrealist]

Don't worry about it; the important thing it's all taken care of and you have a honeymoon to look forward to.

Also, my mun really wants to commend yours on how surprisingly accurate he portrayed you. Are you sure he doesn't have foresight?

[shine_on_armor]

Huh. It does have a nice ring to it...

[shine_on_armor]

He certainly thinks he's psychic.

[mommy_twi]

Good for you!

...Hey, do you want any suggestions!? Me and your father know at least a dozen places across Equestria!

[shine_on_armor]

I'm sure you do, but we're already heading out to one of Princess Celestia's estates in the countryside.

[magicalrealist]

If he really is, then maybe he won't mind if I perform a few tests on him? Nothing harmful at all; I just want to know how it works.

[shine_on_armor]

He's not psychic, Twilight, he's just lucky.

[mommy_twi]

Oh...[slight disappointment, but she gets over it.]

Well I hope you and Cadence have a fantastic time!

[shine_on_armor]

We will, mom.

Plus, now that we're married I'll finally be able to...

[He stops when he realizes this really isn't something he should talk about with his mom.]

[magicalrealist]

And Pinkie's just energetic.

[shine_on_armor]

Hey, if you want to run tests on him, be my guest.

[mommy_twi]

...[Yeah you really shouldn't]

Now that you bring it up. I am expecting grandfoals now...

[shine_on_armor]

I don't think Twilight's even dating anypony, though!

[magicalrealist]

Great! It won't be too difficult at all; I just need to strap him in to this machine over here...

[shine_on_armor]

You never said anything about machines.

Is that the same thing you used on Spike on his first birthday?

[magicalrealist]

But they're the best way to examine this sort of thing!

Well there's that one as well, but I also have a few things from when I tested Pinkie and her Pinkie Sense...

[shine_on_armor]

Sweet Auntie Celestia, you've gotten even crazier ever since you moved to Ponyville.

[dashingrainbow]

You um, haven't seen Soarin around, have you? I wanted to thank him for the dance.
