After the show ends; you can tell bc Twi is talking about courtiers and embassies and Celestia says she's retired
nice story! I wonder what Celestia is going to teach Twilight though...
I gotta say, when I saw there was no romance tag on this story I was very curious just where this fic would find itself by the end, and I could not be happier with the result. Twilight realizing she's ace at almost 50 years old simply because she had never put much thought into it before seems a little too accurate to the character...
Oh Twi, I wish I could give you a hug. Very well done in such a short spate of time. Bravo.

I know when this story is set. This quote just seemed oddly specific .
Did… Did Celestia fucking reset Twilight by igniting her? Like a phoenix?
If Twi's ace, that's a rough revelation for a 47 year old mare. Nice little bite, but the toast analogy probably isn't going to sit well with Twilight
Hurray, ace rep in fan fiction! You'd think I'd do that more myself, but I write so much romance, ironically...
Come in...
Twilight are you okay?
Yes darling, You look peeved.
Peeved? I find out Celestia had Lovers Did you hear me? Lovers As in a lot!
Wait until she hears about us...
Yea, The dracony foals are a dead give away
Why me...
It's never too late Twilight
OH Eat your cake!
The playing cards in Equestria have suits of Sun, Moon, Love, and Friendship. And, well, we now know who's one of the Aces.
Holy shit twilight being asexual makes so much sense WOW good story
I like Twilights confusion here. Its very sweet as she slowly realises she's acee, even if she's afraid of being different/spoiler]
Brilliantly written and brilliantly conceived. My only complaint is that you didn’t write this last month. Best of luck in the contest, fellow competitor! (You won’t need it.)
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSS
AROACE TWI AROACE TWI
Seeing fics like this always brings me joy. They remind me of my own time finding out that asexuality exists
Got a bit of confusion here, but it was nice for a smile at night at work~
And Celestia being like that? Color me impressed…
I like that it can be read as Celestia just messing with Twilight, because c'mon, she would totally do that. Twilight is fun to mess with
Isn't the whole point of this fic that Twilight isn't bread?
So thanks for that.
good thing she doesn't have the urges, cant have someone seducing her and screwing over the country or die and leave her pining for eternity
I've been thinking about doing an asexual twilight story, never been happier to be beaten to the punch. 10/10. Wonderful writing.
First let me say that this is a very good story. It has a strong voice and does a lot in a thousand words. However, I think it's not as good as it could be.
The exact moment when I think this story begins to falter is "She had simply assumed that alicorns were immune." I think there is a sudden drop in quality right there.
Prior to that sentence, the story's focus has been on Twilight's initial question: "Why don't you [Celestia] date?" Celestia has established that she has lovers, and Twilight is shocked. Twilight thinks, "It didn't make sense," and has many questions. At this point in the story, I was expecting a humorous twist ending that makes unexpected sense of Celestia's revelation. Something like: Celestia has a secret force of commandos that storm the homes and businesses of ordinary people to destroy evidence of her affairs. Or: Celestia has put mind control spells on half of Canterlot so that they don't talk, and Twilight realizes that she, too, has been under mind control. Something like that.
But starting from, "She had simply assumed that alicorns were immune," Twilight doesn't try to answer her questions. At this moment in the story, she abandons all her questions about Celestia's lovers:
Dissected, these paragraphs read like:
Celestia, in a stunning feat of conversational judo, has redirected the conversation to Twilight being aro/ace. Her lovers are mentioned one more time and only to emphasize that Twilight is aro/ace:
This could be followed up in numerous ways:
But in the story, Twilight simply drops the subject again:
It's completely in-character for Twilight to doubt herself, and it's completely realistic for conversations to get derailed. But the derailment in this story is swift and entire, and it means the story never really comes to an end. Imagine that we skip ahead in time:
Where does this leave the story? Well, Twilight now understands that she's aro/ace. Progress. But we still haven't resolved, "It doesn't make sense." Celestia might have nothing more to say, since she's already explained about the tunnel and the bags of gold and her foals. (One wonders how inbred the nobility is.) What's unresolved is Twilight's reaction. And she could react in lots of ways:
None of these are complete endings, but they do start to resolve Twilight's feelings about Celestia's lovers.
So I feel like the story is incomplete as it stands. Despite that it's a good story. I just think it could be better.
(Sorry about how long this comment got to be!)
aww so true. also i bet it’s a lovely shade of puce
nice
so true actually, best not to think of his origins. also absolutely love that of all the adjectives one could use to insult him, Twilight chooses “unscientific”
aww Twily thought she was so special!
so true bestie
aww aroace Twilight!
truly, the Princess of Friendship!
ehehe
love this trying to make an illustrative metaphor out of whatever food is lying around. very Celestia, i feel.
absolutely delightful and valid take on Twilight and Celestia’s respective love lives. excellent work, thank you so much for writing!
Yeah, this is definitely a conversation that Celestia should send Cadence’s way. At the very least, it’ll give her time to come up with a better analogy.
Delightful golden-brown slice of life. Thank you for it.
I love it!
I think I've read my fair amount of shipping, but ace Twi is also a lot of fun to see. Now that I think about it, I don't think I see very much of it.
Really nice work, this was a lot of fun to read. I think I'm going to go dig in the archives some now.
