Defying Gravity

Yes, alicorn Starlight Glimmer, folks. Now, I know exactly what some of you are thinking. So before you get your panties in a bunch, despite the picture itself, I'm actually against the idea of Starlight being given the alicorn treatment. Why? It would just be nice for her to have a choice in the matter. Not only that, but the status of alicorn doesn't seem to be as rare and prestigious as it used to be. So if Starlight were to become an alicorn, it wouldn't really change much. I also feel we should be able to have strong characters just the way they are, and not be given wings and/or a unicorn horn just to make them "better".

So if I'm against the idea, then why even spend time making this?

Just gotta stay tuned and find out I think I could've done a better job on this, but I sorta rushed through some of it. Maybe I'll go back and fix some stuff.

The song "Defying Gravity" from the musical Wicked was stuck in my head while I finished this. The lyrics go really well with her character, experiences, etc. If you wanna hear the song, check out this shortened version sung the best by Beau Dermott on Britain's Got Talent! Such a rich voice!

I'd also like to take the time to dedicate this piece to those of you who have been going through a tough time in life and may not be feeling so good about things. No matter what, always keep the star in your heart shining bright, my friends. Things will get better, I promise Also, thank you for inspiring me to finish this through our awesome chats and your lovely friendship You rock!
