i majorly pooped out on this piece after farting out some thumbnails on paper but whatever it’s done it’s highkey scuffed but we can pretend i put effort into it hahaha. i’d been wanting to scribble something out surrounding Cadence meeting her husband’s son, so this was where i landed likeeeeeeee a year ago when i started this piece lmao.
My thoughts surrounding Mimic and how he’s eventually handled is that at the end of the season 2 finale, Cadence and Shining Armor, ride off into the night after their wedding, and eventually a clutch of unique Changeling eggs is found in Cadence’s bed chambers where Chrysalis had been residing while under her guise. I think Celestia and Luna would be able to tell that when he hatched, he wasn’t a normal Changeling grub, whether by looks or maybe he sparks some unicorn magic from his lil baby horn. Regardless, the princesses kinda put two and two together that he’s Shining Armor’s and they send for Cadence to figure out what they’re gonna do with him.
I am a fan of such scenarios!… as long as Cadance and Shining Armor were intending to remain chaste until after the wedding, and it was only some aspect of Chrysalis’s mind control (either brute force “do this” or “for the next hour, the wedding was yesterday”).
I have so many questions… Like, who is the father and mother? Is Chrysalis be the father? And does Shining this? As in what happened that resulted to this?
And mimic are so cute
