>the Heart is usually controlled manually by Cadance; it functions not entirely different from a computer
-
2.
-
3.
>she inputs a mares request for love, and the Heart spits out a match
-
4.
-
5.
>sometimes tho, the Heart does things of its own will
-
6.
-
7.
>Cadance is rather shocked to see that a human match has been found for a very unlikely candidate
-
8.
-
9.
>the last being in the world she thought would be matched
-
10.
-
11.
>Chrysalis, Queen of the Changelings and archenemy of Equestria
-
12.
-
13.
>after much debating, back and forth, Cadance convinces the other princesses that "love will find a way", even if that way seems impossible or just downright stupid
-
14.
-
15.
>while the Human Operation; Rescue & Search Event (or H.O.R.S.E for short) takes place in your world, envoys are sent to Chrysalis hive
-
16.
-
17.
>it takes a whole lot of political favors, bribes, and promises of treatys to get the Queen to even consider it
-
18.
-
19.
-
20.
-
21.
>and so it happens one sunny spring day, that you and your match meets for the first time, on neutral ground, surrounded by soldiers from both sides
-
22.
-
23.
>and you feel love, pure and strong, shining into your heart for the first time
-
24.
-
25.
>you can just hope that she feels the same
-
26.
-
27.
-
28.
-
29.
>she does
-
30.
-
31.
>perhaps not as strongly as you, but there is definitely a spark inside of her
-
32.
-
33.
>it's something she's never felt before
-
34.
-
35.
>love willingly given, instead of harvested from those unable to defend themselves
-
36.
-
37.
-
38.
-
39.
>due to the delicate circumstances, it's generally agreed that you should take it slow
-
40.
-
41.
>you are given a small property at the edge of the village closest to her domains
-
42.
-
43.
>you are given privacy obviously, but your actions (and hers specifically) are under close observation
-
44.
-
45.
>it goes great at first
-
46.
-
47.
-
48.
-
49.
>well, perhaps not great
-
50.
-
51.
>there are some cultural hiccups in the beginning
-
52.
-
53.
>it takes awhile for her to accept your carefree lifestyle and non-formal ways
-
54.
-
55.
>and more than once you find her trying to sneakily drain you of some extra emotions
-
56.
-
57.
>you on the other hand have to fight certain frustrations
-
58.
-
59.
>she didn't talk with you for the whole day when you accidently called her Chryssi
-
60.
-
61.
>and you have a basement now, apperently
-
62.
-
63.
>filled with green sticky slime that has ruined more than one pair of pants
-
64.
-
65.
-
66.
-
67.
>it takes awhile, that's for sure
-
68.
-
69.
>but neither of you are willing to give this up
-
70.
-
71.
>so you press on, taking it day by day
-
72.
-
73.
>you teach her to cook, and she teaches you about military strategies (you never thought something like that could actually be intresting)
-
74.
-
75.
>you spend your days learning more and more about eachother, and soon you don't sleep in separate rooms, but share a bed
-
76.
-
77.
-
78.
-
79.
>and one day, a few months in, you both find yourselfs relaxing on the sofa
-
80.
-
81.
>her head is in your lap, while you stroke her suprisingly soft neck
-
82.
-
83.
>you call her "your little lovebug", and instead of scowling at you she smiles and kisses you softly
-
84.
-
85.
>life is good
-
86.
-
87.
-
88.
-
89.
-
90.
-
91.
>but such is life, that the good times never seem to last
-
92.
-
93.
>and all the good things you had, one day comes to an end
-
94.
-
95.
-
96.
-
97.
>it begins with a knock on the door
-
98.
-
99.
>and before you know it, your home is filled with little bug-horses
-
100.
-
101.
>even tho it been over six months since their Queen left them, they still treat her with the outmost respect
-
102.
-
103.
>but behind all the bowing and title-calling, you can feel something else
-
104.
-
105.
>dissapointment, and anger
-
106.
-
107.
>they are meant to be ruled, not left to fend for themselves
-
108.
-
109.
>the Changelings demands their Queen back, right now
-
110.
-
111.
-
112.
-
113.
>Chrysalis is torn between her love for you, and her love for her people
-
114.
-
115.
>she admits that this whole adventure has clouded her judgement a bit
-
116.
-
117.
>so great and comforting was these new feelings of love, that she more or less abandoned her subjects
-
118.
-
119.
>not that everything is falling apart without her, but she is still their Queen
-
120.
-
121.
>and a Queen belongs amongst her people, nowhere else
-
122.
-
123.
-
124.
-
125.
>you don't remember alot from these harrowing hours, but you remember the end of that day
-
126.
-
127.
>you are on your knees, begging her to stay
-
128.
-
129.
>she can't look you in the eyes, lest she starts crying
-
130.
-
131.
>you beg her to take you with her, to live in her Hive
-
132.
-
133.
>and you nearly go deaf from the cacophony of protests
-
134.
-
135.
>the bugs are adamant; either she comes back alone, to how things were before, or she stays here, and will always be remembered as the queen who betrayed her people
-
136.
-
137.
-
138.
-
139.
>In the end you close your door to an empty house and an empty heart
-
140.
-
141.
>and the good times are gone, just like that
-
142.
-
143.
-
144.
-
145.
>time passes
-
146.
-
147.
>not that you notices
-
148.
-
149.
>in your mind it's still a cold day in fall, when everything went awry
-
150.
-
151.
-
152.
-
153.
>ponies try to cheer you up
-
154.
-
155.
>the princesses themselves drop in on a visit, giving their condolances and leaving you with vague promises of trying to fix things
-
156.
-
157.
>you all know it won't go anywhere
-
158.
-
159.
>the Changeling empire have closed their gates, and the empire of Equestria is not willing to escalate an already very sensitive political situation simply for one man
-
160.
-
161.
>Cadance even offers to try to match you again
-
162.
-
163.
>you scream terrible things at her, and then break down crying
-
164.
-
165.
-
166.
-
167.
>days turn to weeks that somehow becomes months, and before you know it it's spring again
-
168.
-
169.
>the flowers are blooming and the world is ablaze with life
-
170.
-
171.
>but for you it's always fall
-
172.
-
173.
-
174.
-
175.
-
176.
-
177.
>and then one day someone knocks on your door
-
178.
-
179.
>and the love of your life stands outside, dirty and tired
-
180.
-
181.
>she doesn't get as much as a word out before you grab her in a bearhug
-
182.
-
183.
>she hugs you back and cries into your neck
-
184.
-
185.
>it doesn't take long before you're both blubbering messes, hugging and crying and kissing
-
186.
-
187.
>and you get an explanation
-
188.
-
189.
>she choose wrong, she realised far too late
-
190.
-
191.
>her empire can do without their queen
-
192.
-
193.
>they might not like it, but they'll manage
-
194.
-
195.
>but she can't do without you
-
196.
-
197.
-
198.
-
199.
>so after far too many sleepless night where she longed for your embrace, she left her hive for the last time
-
200.
-
201.
>to get back to the one thing that truly made her happy
-
202.
-
203.
-
204.
-
205.
>that night you hold eachother as tightly as two beings can
-
206.
-
207.
>she mumbles in her sleep, and you slowly caress her mane
-
208.
-
209.
>there will be consequences, that's for sure
-
210.
-
211.
>and there are no way of telling how hard they will hit you
-
212.
-
213.
>but it doesn't matter
-
214.
-
215.
>because she is back where she belongs, in the life you two have created
-
216.
-
217.
-
218.
-
219.
>and in your mind the rain curtains of fall fades away, and the sun is once more shining
