Chapter 4: Blind My Mind

Spike woke up to a voice he had known his entire life. It was Twilight Sparkle telling him to get up.

"Spike, wake up!" the voice spoke warmly.

The dragon pulled the blanket over his head and mumbled something that couldn't be heard.

Twilight used her magic to levitate the blanket up and away from Spike. He looked to the purple pony that had a concerned look on her face, "How are you feeling, Spike?" She wanted to not open any wounds on the dragon. She learned of what had happened the day before about Rarity not returning his feelings.

The dragon sat up in his

A pink pony was waiting on a bridge. Looking over the railing, she looked at her reflection in the water. Her white and pink mane looked as if it was moving according to the water's reflection. But she knew there was no breeze or anything of the sort. If there was, she wouldn't have worn the tiara that she normally would be placed on her head. It was her name, after all, and Diamond Tiara would look odd without it.

She looked up from the water to see an orange colt with a green mane walking to where she was. Diamond Tiara blushed slightly as she saw the unicorn. She looked away fr

Chapter 3: Give It All

The next day, Spike returned to the Carousel Boutique brimming with confidence. Sweetie Belle had challenged the dragon to admit his feelings to Rarity, and he felt like he could conquer the world and Rarity's heart. Knocking on the door of the shop, a familiar unicorn filly was on the other side with a smile.

"Hey, Spike! You seem to be in a good mood," Sweetie Belle said, moving to the side for Spike to enter.

"I am! I feel like I can do it, Sweetie Belle. I feel like I can admit my feelings to Rarity," Spike proclaimed proudly.

Closing the door, the filly was s

Chapter 2: Times Like These

The white filly and the purple dragon were quick with finishing the task that Rarity had given them. They both went to inform Rarity that they were done, but after seeing the unicorn working intently on her designs, Spike and Sweetie Belle both agreed to leave her alone. With this, the two went out for lunch.

"So Spike, what do you wanna get to eat?" Sweetie Belle asked as they left the Carousel Boutique.

"Oh, anywhere is really fine. I'm not too picky," Spike smiled to the filly.

Sweetie Belle's face lit up, "Alright! I know just the place!" She used one of

Why Can't We Be Friends?"Why Can't We Be Friends?"
By Closer-To-The-Sun (Joseph Noblit)

Hello Mister Bunny, how are you today?
Why do you freeze when we meet?
Is there something wrong?
I only wish to speak with you, yet you don't make a sound.
I hope we can put whatever differences we might have aside.

Please, tell me about your day.
When you awoke in the shrubs this morning, did you smell the flowers?
When you hopped into the grass, did you feel the dew between your furry toes?
Standing on the concrete, did the sun warm your body like it does mine?
Did you hear the birds sing their lovely tune?
Or did your eyes happen to gaze into the vast blue sky?
I

Twilight Sparkle: Studying Hanukkahby *Closer-To-The-Sun

Fan Art / Cartoons & Comics / Digital / Movies & TV

"Honestly, Spike does not know what he is missing! This Hanukkah holiday is very interesting and rich in history. Let's see, I just lit the menorah for the first day, so now I get to play with the dreidel. Oh! What's this about chocolate gelt? That sounds very interesting to learn about! Oh, and potato pancakes? This is going to be so fun! I really don't see what Spike is doing to miss this!"

---------------

More holiday art, this time touching a bit on my ancestor's traditions. Since Hanukkah is on the eighth this year, why not have some pony art to celebrate? And who better than everyponies favorite egghead? I really can see Twilight Sparkle studying about different traditions and holidays. Also, I was inspired by

's art work of humanized Twilight Sparkle (here and here) to go with Twilight being Jewish if she was human (though I do think if she was human, she could easily be Indian [as in India] or Filipino). And even if she's not, she would love to learn.

This was really fun to draw, but alas, I must get better and random objects like tables, books and, in this case, menorahs. One step at a time, right?

Why Filipino?

(Not trying to be mean, just curious.)

*Closer-To-The-Sun Mar 3, 2013 Hobbyist General Artist

I don't know. I just get a feeling like that. I see my best friend (who is FIlipino) and Twilight having so many similar qualities and traits. Guess it's just how I see her. We all have opinions on such.

~neme567 Mar 3, 2013 Digital Artist

Ok. Besides, I wonder how Twilight would react to the myths, especially that feared horse creature.

*Closer-To-The-Sun Mar 5, 2013 Hobbyist General Artist

Well, again, just my opinion of such.

~elr79655 Dec 8, 2012

Shalom! Hanukkah starts tonight! There's just one thing wrong with this picture: menorah candles are lit from right to left, the same way one would read the Hebrew alphabet.

*Closer-To-The-Sun Dec 8, 2012 Hobbyist General Artist

Oh darn. Well, it was done last year and didn't think much of it. So sorry!

~elr79655 Dec 8, 2012

No offense. By the way, I do agree with the conversation below about Twilight being Jewish because Tara Strong is Jewish.

*Panda-Nikki Dec 25, 2012 Hobbyist Digital Artist

She is? Omg! Now a know a ton of Jewish Celebrities. I wonder because I am Jewish. XD

*MagicClare Dec 23, 2011 Hobbyist Writer

Someday I'll figure out why grown adults like to look at ponies doing... everything imaginable.

*Closer-To-The-Sun Dec 24, 2011 Hobbyist General Artist

Because ponies make things 20% cooler/cuter/funner....yes....funner....
