On the season finale (spoilers ahead)

[magicalrealist]

So...i-it's really official now, isn't it? All I could've wanted was for my friends to go back to the ponies I know and love them as, but this...I don't know what to say. I just...want to thank all of my friends for being there. None of this would be possible if I didn't meet them when I came to Ponyville.

(She rolls her eyes.)

...And yes, you can add this to your list of titles for me. How many are on the list now? Princess, Touhou Girl, Jedi Knight...

...The One Free Mare? You're going to have to explain that one; I only know the term half-life for its literal definition.

Really?

[Shining pulls away from the hug to wipe his eye.]

Heh. What do you know? I do. [*Sniffle*] I guess I was just too excited to get it out.

[magicalrealist]

I think we're all a little too excited to do be concerned with things like that.

(Because even Twi is tearing up, though she makes no effort to hide it. Nothing to hide from, really.)

It's hard to believe we've ended up where we are now, isn't it?

[shine_on_armor]

Aw, I always knew you had great things in store for you.

I never thought we'd both be royalty, but still.

[magicalrealist]

(Totally blushing up now.)

I don't think anypony could've expected this. Still, I hope mom and dad didn't pass out after hearing the news.

[shine_on_armor]

Oh, don't worry about that; after all, even if they did, they were still there for your coronation!

[magicalrealist]

(She laughs.)

Well at least they would've been tended to immediately if they were here.

(Though that mostly might've been due to seeing their princess daughter fly for the first time.)

I still need to thank them for everything.

[shine_on_armor]

I'm sure they'd love to hear from you...

And, hey, now that you're a princess, I expect you to visit Cadence and me more often. Okay?

[magicalrealist]

Of course! Maybe I'll be able to fly there myself!

[shine_on_armor]

You'd better be able to fly there after you took off from Canterlot like you did.
