Dashite forever!

Sunset and Twilight have been together for awhile now, and are in the final preparations for their wedding. However Twilight raises a question that makes Sunset pause, what about Sunset's family from Equestria? So they set out to find out what happened to Sunset's last surviving family member, her little sister.

Okay, now I see why you've been unable to watch Gaim and things like that. You've been busy contracting this masterpiece! Completely forgive you. I admit though, I should have seen Scootaloo, and her Aunts coming a mile off. Maybe I was half-hoping it'd be someone different, a change up from the norm. Not complaining though.

9120827 To be fair, Sunset is almost never related to Scootaloo in fics.

9120838
Only think I've ever seen it done once. The name of the fic escapes me for the moment, but when I remember it I'll be sure to tell you.

9120848 I think I know what you're talking about, that one where Scootaloo was the daughter of a rich family from Cloudsdale right?

Scootaloo is lucky. All of the Mane Six and at least one background pony have been her guardian in at least one universe. When her caretakers aren’t ponies, she’s usually adopted by average-joes from HiEs or badasses from crossovers. I’d say that my favorite Scootadoption is where her father is freakin’ Vaati.

9120922 Not to mention some villains, minor characters, etc.

what a twist

9120954 Yeah, even if she doesn’t have her aunts, SOMEONE in the multiverse will take care of her.

This is a cute story...

On the plus side, I like the idea... I'm a sucker for Sunset!Family fics, and I really like Scoota!Family fics too. I haven't seen this pair yet as siblings, so the promise of it really appealed.

Not exactly cons but... It feels really rushed? Like, the concept is great, and I get that you wanted to finish this for a contest, but you could have done so much more with this story. The characters keep repeating the exact same thing over and over, and then another character comes in and reinforces it. There's tension, but it suffers from something that ultimately puts down any story: everyone just accepts things, everything flows so nicely and positively... there's little to no conflict of any sort. And yeah, I get that the story's aim is not that, precisely, but it leaves the story wanting.

Overall, good idea, but it could really be a lot more even as a short story.

9121065 This is actually the second one to have them be sisters that I know of.

As for the other stuff, yeah, I need to work on that, maybe I can try and refine some of it before the contest is over.

Can’t....contain...the feels!

Just saying, your descriptions of Aunt Holiday and Lofty were incorrect.

This is what they look like

As D noted, this does get redundant at times, and it could've used another proofreading pass or two. And there's the question of why only Sunset's analogue had a different name. (So Dr. Twister wouldn't freak out about his older daughter rising from the dead and not knowing about it until her wedding, of course, but the lone exception to the cosmic parallels bothers me something fierce.)

Still, this was an enjoyably sweet story. Best of luck in the contest.

9121989 No, it’s based on their appearance in the comic books.

I want to see this story of shamelessly love couple of Princess Twilight Sparkle and Tempest Shadow.

9123012 I really should write a fic about those two sometime.

Huh. So, Twilight didn't have any vows? Just goes straight from Sunset's to the rings.

Also, they said they were thinking about honeymooning in Equestria, but they're flying somewhere instead? I presume they changed their minds, but should perhaps have been noted.

Still, cute story overall.

9125023 Oh, whoops, I forgot where they were going... my bad.

Beautiful and I loved it!

good story enjoyed it thoe it felt a bit rushed

Once again, you amaze me with your writing skills and the ideas you come up with for the stories. This one in particular I felt is a great read, and hopefully one day gets an audiobook reading of it. Good work, keep it up.

9132172 I'd like that, and thank you.

9123210
I very much enjoyed the story and I truly hope you do end up writing a Tempest/Twilight story.

9151784 I have so many ships, yet ScootaBelle and FlutterDash tend to be what I write about the most... I should work on that.

"Makes you want to finally put a ring on Tempest Shadow huh?"

If nothing else, this line made my day. XD The headcanon for Sunset's sister was very clever, though.

"Probably go insane," Twilight said with a giggle as she leaned down and kissed Sunset gently on the lips. "Come on, lets send a message to Princess Twilight that we might be swinging by there tomorrow and..."

Maybe or maybe not, you never know.

"I still don't want to wear one," Rainbow Dash said as she crossed her arms.

Why, you've worn dresses lots of times rainbow?

"Actually, my dad was a Pegasus," Sunset admitted kind of sheepishly as she rubbed the back of her head. "I come from kind of a weird family."

:pinkiegasp: Didn't see that coming.

"Okay, time to face the music," Sunset said and got to her hooves as she looked back at Twilight who gave her a nod as they headed into the house together.

Sounds like a reference from somewhere but I can't put my finger on it.

With that the two aunts went to make dinner and Princess Twilight decided to leave the couple alone for a little bit in order to talk. Sunset sighed a little and rested her head lightly on the lavender Unicorn's shoulder lightly and closed her eyes. It was hard to believe that they had actually managed to get over this obstacle, now all that was left was to actually talk to her little sister.

So far things have been going smoothly, hopefully it won't go downhill once Sunset sees her little sister for the first time in years. 🤞

She looked at Twilight for a long moment and gave her a soft smile as she nuzzled her gently. Twilight smiled and looked back at her for a long moment, she had to admit that it had taken a lot to get used to when she realized she was dating a pony turned human, but she didn't care, she loved Sunset for who she was no matter what species she was. This wasn't her first time being a pony, but it was nice to know that she'd always have someone, or somepony there with her.

Never judge love for someone you know as long as their happy.

She stretched her wings out a little as she secured her scooter and opened the door to the house. "Aunt Holiday, Auntie Lofty, I'm home," she said and started towards the stairs that would take her up to her room.

I can't believe it, sunsets sister is scootaloo!?!?!?!?!?

Scootaloo paused for a long moment. She had always wanted a big sister, had even envied the relationship her friends had with their older siblings. While she had that with Rainbow Dash, what was her real big sister like? Was she going to be cool? Was she going to be able to help her fly? What kind of pony was she? What did her aunts even mean by what they had said before.

The flying part is very unlikely.

"Thanks Sunset," Scootaloo said as she hugged them both and sighed happily for a moment. Sunset nodded and they hugged the filly back, they were just glad that they were together, as a family.

Good to see everything worked out in the end family wise. :twilightsmile:

"Makes you want to finally put a ring on Tempest Shadow huh?" Equestria Rainbow Dash asked just as Princess Twilight started to drink her punch when she nearly did a spit take. "What did I say? You two haven't exactly made it a secret that you're a couple."

Dang, didn't see that coming either.

"Of course," Dr. Twister said and shook hands with her. "You remind me a lot of my first daughter, but its probably nothing. I'm just happy to help a friend of Twilight's, I'll see you around, congratulations to you both."

Interesting.

"His elder daughter Sunrise, she was killed in a car accident when she was only 10," Twilight said with a shake of her head. "I can't be sure, she looked a little different from you, but I think she may have more or less been your counterpart in this world."

Now it makes sense, at least we know that the human sunset is no more. :fluttercry:

She looked at Twilight and over at Scootaloo and her aunts and smiled softly. She had her family here and that was what mattered. She had a long way to go on this journey they called life, but she wasn't about to give up on it, especially now that she had Twilight with her.

Not to mention has reunited with the remainder of her family. :pinkiehappy:


Despite the ending caught me off guard and how scootaloo was Sunset's sister I enjoyed this story very much. Might even make my own version of this but with a character who isn't from mlp fim and is Sunset's sister. That's gonna happen for another time but I'm glad I got to read this story and see how great it was.

Applejack pointed out as she put her arm around Rarity.

Why Rarity wouldn't Pinkie Pie make more sense for this part. Are you trying to imply that they're together, I don't mind I actually find that shape very cute in this world but I'm just confused

11098352 Its been a while, but knowing me, yes that's exactly what I meant.
