Description
Part 2: [link]Bonus! - [link]
Got onto Equestria Daily's first comic set of 2013: That was unexpected!
Happy New Year all. 
I write Twilight's mother, toy canon as "Twilight Velvet", as a playful, edging on eccentric, type who is in many ways her children's greatest fan.
I've got a lot of comics on the go in my WIP folder but I thought something cheerful and silly would be a good way to end the year!
Mrs Twilight's hair is coloured to differentiate her from her daughter. I'd have done Twilight's too but those tail highlights are a pain to do by hand. Thanks to the hair, plus the speech bubbles, this pic's rather purple, which isn't so bad... Full colour would be nice but I want to finish this ever before 2013. Also: One of these days I'll learn to do consistent pony proportions but that day is not today.

my sis says your rendition of Twilight Velvet remind her of me for some reason, and i'm starting to agree XD

This is really funny, but what would have been great is if Twilight had a hard time catching on to the possible misinterpretation and Spike starts giggling-then busts out laughing-then has Twilight lean and so he can clarify the possible interpretation of her statement. But great job!

Yeah, not sure where Spike is for these... Still, I barely got the comics done before 2013 anyway, so it's probably just as well I didn't include anything else!

I love it. I completely love that Mrs. Twilight is a shipper.

Twilight: I'm not into mares!
Try telling the bronies that.

There's something ever so slightly bizarre about writing shipfics involving your own kids, but hey - why not?
(Also... don't deny it, Twilight! ^_~)

Yes.

Aye.
BTW, any plans to turn this into an ongoing series rather than just a two-parter? It's far too much fun to just end after the second page, and I'm dying (well, so to speak) to find out what'll happen next.

It got a bonus comic due to its popularity [link] but I have a lot of other comics to finish!

Why would Twilight's mom write romance stories about her son? And how in depth do they get?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I imagine they're just fluffy "and he lived happily ever after" ones.
Maybe a couple of "and then that ***** broke his heart for she was really a filthy harpy in disguise" short stories if he had a bad relationship experience (I know my mum gets livid when guys mess me about)!

That's actually a really sweet idea, now that I think about it. Twilight's Mom is best fanfic writer.

So have you written any son fics by Twilight's mom yet? If not I'll have to get on that.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Not yet.

Oh definitely! Like self-insert fairy tales and the like.

Pretty much!

How's this for a premise, "Shining Armor of Saddle Arabia"
While on a diplomatic journey to the Sultan of Saddle Arabia, Shining Armor gets separated from the rest of his comrades during a large sand storm. When at the brink of death from the heat and dehydration he's saved by a mysterious mare who guides him to an oasis. Truly it is love at first sight as the two drink from the rare desert waters. Only later does he find that she is an exiled princess forced to flee from her home when her evil aunt, a unicorn witch of tremendous power seizes the throne from the Sultan. Now the pair must fight to reclaim the throne, but will their feelings for each other compromise the quest? And will the love between this simple guard pony and royalty be allowed to exist at all?

Twilight's mom. Greatest ship-fic writer of all time. XD

I have seen a lot of "Twilight's mom is a writer" lately. Where did that come from?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I'm not entirely sure... She has stars as a cutie mark, you'd think they'd link her more to magic or astronomy! Maybe it just seemed like a stereotypical "middle class mother" thing?

Twilight took the news that her mother was writing shippy fanfics about Shining Armor pretty well...

Up until that point it hadn't been her problem?

That would be utterly creepy. I hope that no one actually does this.

I figure it's just one step above the "He/She seemed nice, will he/she be coming over again?" type of questions parents ask when they like one of their children's close "friends". And of course the background speculation by grandparents/parents/aunts/uncles when someone brings their "friend" to a family event ("they do seem to get along well, I wonder if they'll get together?").

Twilight's mum is a fanfic writer who ships her own children?
My head is full of what.
This could go very wrong, very fast. I'm kinda excited.

I figured it was just one step above the "so, he seemed nice, is he coming over again?" type of comments I get from my parents!

Grammar error: "Does mean I need a new character to write about," just pointing that out. ^^
Other than that, good comic! Can't wait for more!

A mother writing about her son's possible romantic stories?
Woah. So glad my mother is not like that.
She surely has a open mind. Or she begs for a new source for her next romance stories. Poor Twilight.
Very good comic

Celestia's mane, how horrifying. D8
I'm gonna go drink some rum now and huddle in a corner while I contemplate this.
