Anyway, here’s my version of the ‘canon’ kids to fit with my own Next Gen AU

[butterchurn-art]

My “Butterverse” next gen AU :)

Twilight Sparkle and [REDACTED]

Twilight Sparkle gave birth to Berry Fizzion under a royal hush. The identity of her other parent is officially unknown, but whispers of a former villain with a shattered horn have made their way to every corner of Equestria. From a young age, Berry was fascinated by both of her parents - even if she had barely gotten a glimpse of her "unknown" parent.

Her special talent is combining magical theory and chemical experimentation. She's the only pony around who could enchant a fizzy drink to cause anti-gravity! Poor Uncle Spike has his claws full when he comes to visit Twilight.

Fluttershy and Discord

After years of trying and wishing, Fluttershy's heart began to ache with dreams unfulfilled. Discord could no longer bear to see his wife cry herself to sleep at night while their friends raised foals of their own. So, one day, he gave her a gift. A single egg, magically formed by Discord and attuned to Fluttershy's essence. She cared for it devotedly, keeping it either warm under her wing or tucked safe into a nest made of blankets. Then, on a wintery morning, it cracked. Menagerie emerged a healthy draconequus. As he grew into his lanky body, creatures nobody else could approach would walk up to him and nuzzle into his side. His special talent came as the innate bonding with and gentle tending of the world's most odd and magical creatures.

As soon as Menagerie had hatched and was able to stand on his wobbly hooves, Discord had begun to feel the itch again; the chaos of creature. Within mere months, another egg had materialized through sheer impulse. Faunomaly hatched in the middle of the night, under a full moon. She emerged through layers of reality, her eyes unable to focus on just this world alone. Fauna always seems to know more than what she says. She sees glitches in the world, hears cracks in time, and plays with them if her dad permits it. Her special talent is seeing magical anomalies and shifts in the universe.

Years passed after the two draconequus foals were hatched. The two were nearly grown and out of the home when Fluttershy was rushed into Ponyville hospital. There were no eggs this time, no fanfare. Just a foal entered into the world literally upside down - her little legs kicking in the air and giggling before she even cried. With long ears and sturdy limbs, she resembled a mule more than a pony of draconequus. Her special talent emerged in a simple joy: gardening.

Applejack - Rainbow Dash - Rarity

While she loves her family, the stress of Big Macintosh leaving the farm and Apple Bloom growing up and getting ready to move out with Scootaloo made Applejack rethink where she was in life. She'd only lived the past few years to serve Equestria, but now that everything had settled down... what did she really have to show for her life? So, without a thought, she ran. She made her way to Appleloosa and started doing rodeos in her spare time. Eventually, she ended up in Canterlot with a broken leg and nothing to lose, and succumbed to a passionate night with a unicorn of royalty.

Golden Gala was born while Applejack was still traveling Equestria and partying herself sick. By the age of three, Applejack had returned to Sweet Apple Acres to two angry siblings. Despite the tension when she returned, Applejack did her best to settle down again. Sweet Apple Acres needed her, and so did Golden Gala, even if she didn't know how to be a mom - especially not to a foal who demanded napkin rings and chandelier placements more than apple bucking. Gala’s cutie mark appeared during the annual Apple Family Reunion, when he single-hoofedly turned the chaotic gathering into a stunning, smoothly-run gala that had his step-mom Rarity crying in delight. His special talent is large-scale hospitable event planning.

Applejack hadn't been looking for love when she made her way back home, only a purpose. But it turns out that love had been waiting for her. Rarity, who had never stopped writing letters while she was gone, and Rainbow Dash, who proudly declared that "Applejack'll be back when she's ready" and then waited, silent and loyal, until she was. The three of them started slowly. Hesitant steps, shared chores, shared glances. Then one morning, Applejack looked up from her breakfast and realized that the Apple family had just... grown. Without fanfare, without labels. Just love. And from that love came three foals.

Buckshot Blitz came out fighting, a daredevil with the energy of a lightning bolt. She lives for rodeos and races, as well as any opportunity to show off. She's fiercely protective of her younger siblings and the farm. Her special talent is high impact performance.

Southern Belle is graceful and stylish, but unafraid to get down and dirty with the rest of her family. She makes the perfect apple tea when you come over to the barn for her tea parties. Her special talent goes hoof-in-hoof with Golden Gala, venue curation. She can blend rustic and high class with ease.

Savoir Flair is fast and fashionable. Even though he just got his cutie mark, Flair commands the room with confidence and flash, strutting into every situation like it's a runway. Rainbow Dash is a little disappointed her only son is a fashionista, but he still strives to make her proud with his competitive spirit. His special talent is helping others with their personal personas. He can take a pony who has fallen from grace and remake their image within days.

Pinkie Pie and Cheese Sandwich

The easiest love story of all. Two hearts that bounced at the same rhythm, two ponies who could make a whole town laugh just by being together at the same time. After only months of throwing joint parties across Equestria and never quite admitting they were a thing, they got married in the biggest party of all. A week-long festival that went to every corner of Equestria. Their traveling slowed down after tragedy struck and the Cakes were lost in an accident that shook Ponyville. Without hesitation, Pinkie Pie and Cheese Sandwich stepped up and took in the Cake children. They lovingly refer to these two as their "practice foals." Pound Cake ended up becoming a delivery flier, and Pumpkin Cake ended up moving to the Crystal Kingdom as the royal baker.

Soon after adopting the Cakes, Cheesecake came along with a calm, clever, and deadpan personality. He inherited his parents' flair for joy, but channels it into his culinary arts. He learned everything about making cake from his big sister Pumpkin Cake - he got his cutie mark from making the best cheesecake in all of Equestria. The princesses put their stamp of approval on it!

Confetti Cream is quiet yet energetic. She’s a planner, a fixer, and the go-to filly when a party falls apart five minutes before go-time. She doesn't need to be, or even want to be, the center of attention. She runs the show from the sidelines, making sure everyone feels like they belong. Her special talent is emergency party coordination.

Cherry Pop Pie is pure, unfiltered volume. Loud, fast, opinionated, and constantly throwing confetti around. Her voice can lift ponies' moods, crack glass, and start a party with a single shout. Her special talent is emotional support parties.

SunPest NextGen Lineup (kinda)

This is part of like.. my "official" nextgen, if you will. Not that I'm doing a whole lot with this "official" nextgen lol. Don't even know what a good name for it would be lol.

Link to my TH folder for this MLP NextGen

But yeah! Sunset and Tempest have two children together, but I had only come up with one at the time of drawing this. Their daughter's name is Solar Flare, partially named after her grandmother, Stellar Flare, who Sunset had been making amends with by the time Solar was born. They're trying to make peace.

There is. SO MUCH. to read below this cut, so you've been warned lmao.

I imagine Solar Flare would be quite gifted with magic, in large part thanks to Sunset's mentorship but also thanks to the raw magic power passed down to her from her mother Tempest. Solar is a bit of a powerhouse lol.

Other than that I have done very little brainstorming. But I hope you like these designs! :)

Edit: Including some info I'd come up with while discussing with a beloved mutual :))

Q: "This is such a wonderful pairing that would get so much out of being with one another, there's a level of guilt I think both of them will never quite be able to let go of but it will shrink the more love and acceptance they're shown. As the saying goes, shared joy is double joy but shared sorrow is sorrow halved <3

I saw you've said you've done very little brainstorming so I thought I'd ask some toughies hehe

How do you think their pasts would impact their parenting? Does Solar Flare ever have an ambitious streak of her own that worries her moms? How much would she know about her moms pasts?"

A: "OOGH THOSE ARE GREAT QUESTIONS!! Honestly I think the fact that she's such a powerhouse of a prodigy paired with who her parents are might make some people wary of her now that I think about it.

(This is so fucking long strap yourself in)

Honestly I feel like Sunset would definitely encourage her daughter to go crazy with what she's capable of doing, like she wants her to absolutely reach for the stars because she most definitely has the means to. Her mom was the former pupil of Celestia, after all, and Solar is likely seen as the next important name in the world of powerful unicorns once she reaches adolescence. Sunset may have applied a certain amount of… pressure on her daughter, but unlike with Solar's younger brother who cracked under that pressure (much like Sunburst), Solar THRIVED under it. She's a junkie for studying and tests and WINNING EVERYTHING lmao. The important part is that Solar had the raw talent to carry her past others who worked just as hard. Honestly she might not appreciate that fact enough, sort of believing that other people just need to get on the grind like her (including her brother).

Tempest is definitely more laid back when compared to Sunset. She's much more introverted and used to having strict limits placed on what she's allowed to do, so she's not always as much of a go-getter in the same sense, especially now that she's settled down. It's not at all that she Discourages ambition, she just doesn't place quite as much importance on success. She can help keep the family grounded at times and provide a nice balance to Sunset who can sometimes get swept up in the glory of her spectacular eldest child. The only thing is that Tempest is often very busy with work, which allows the family dynamic to swing a little far towards Sunset's (accidental) intensity (especially since Solar takes VERY well to Sunset's style and is kind of mean to her brother for not doing so).

With Aurum Dusk (the Sunpest boy, younger brother who I've been referring to), he became so afraid of failing, especially after not being as immediately talented as his sister, and disappointing his mothers, that he gave up on trying at all. This Devastates Sunset because she loves her boy and believes in him. It's just that the pep talks she tries to give him scare him. He usually takes better to the mellower approach from Tempest, but that's only when he's receptive at all, which isn't often in his somewhat-reclusive teenage years. Eventually things get better once he opens up to Sunburst, who helps explain things to the rest of his family since he can relate to Aurum's own struggles quite intimately."

Sunset is becoming her mother and hasn't realized it yet but when she does she's gonna be MORTIFIED lmao.

Heyyyyy y'all. My semesters almost over, as in finals are next week 💀. I'm working on compiling reference sheets for my next gen characters. I've also been trying out that website character hub to get them all organized (since I'm usually horrible about putting everything in writing).

*slight warning on mention of dubious consent*

Silver Venture is the illegitimate son of Shining Armor and Queen Chrysalis. He was conceived sometime during the events of a Canterlot wedding and born afterwards. He was born and lived in the changeling hive until he was around 7. It was when another kind-hearted changeling, named Thorax, left with him and snuck him into the Crystal Empire together (in disguised forms). Thorax knew Queen Chrysalis only kept him around because she was able to feed on his love for her. He raised Silver Venture the best he could, trying to remain undetected by the residents of the Crystal Empire. Upon Thorax befriending Spike and consequently Twilight Sparkle, it was discovered Shining Armor was Silver Venture's father. This discovery changed the lives of the royal couple in the Crystal Empire. Princess Cadence was happy to take him in, despite the dreadful circumstances that brought him into this world. Naturally, Shining Armor has had a harder time accepting the truth of it all, especially all the trauma surrounding his existence. Silver Venture was 11 years old when he moved into the castle and felt anything but comfortable. He knows the intense stigma against changelings, and to make it worse, his mother is a devious villain who had already attempted to overthrow his father and stepmother. He is deeply ashamed to be a changeling and spends almost all his time in his disguised form. He is never undisguised outside of his room. Hopefully in time he will be able to make peace with who he is and experience the magic of friendship. (He is pictured as an adult in the reference, but his appearance generally stays the same throughout his life, he's a simple guy lol)

.....

That's all I have for him so far, putting it all in writing has been crazyyy

My Little Pony: Fringes Are Hereditary

[cuttlekiss-mlp]

"you can't buy happiness, but you can buy tea and that's basically the same thing!"

pumpkinella spice pie, but preferably called "pumpkin" by all, is the eldest daughter of pinkie pie and cheese sandwich. she has a close relationship with her parents, despite some...recent familial issues.

pumpkin, like her parents, is big on smiles, fun, and happiness! she concentrates this into providing natural remedies and potions to the ponies of ponyville. she studied under zecora, whom taught her all the things she needs to know. she has a teashop not too far from the bakery, where she spends most of her day.

as the oldest, she has given herself the role of fun older sister! she is close to her little brother, neapolitan sweets sandwich. with his "losing his curl" and everything, pumpkin often tries to take neo off of her parent's hands and spend time with him.

----

i'll hopefully be adding some more to her bio soon!

Continuing on my AU are the ships! Can't have a good AU without shipping haha

In this Alternate Universe, Twilight Sparkle and Pinkie Pie are each other's special-someponies. Due to Twilight's busy schedule with studying and tests, and Pinkie's equally busy days spent party planning, the two can barely find the time to take some down time and rest. During these rare, and precious moments, Pinkie loves to listen to Twilight's rambles on what she learned during the day's lesson. All cuddled up, comfy, cozy, and warm, she loves to watch her marefriend and admire her beauty.

More on the AU here!
