#twilighting

season one

- friendship is magic

first episode, adorable twilestia nuzzle scene!

- a bird in the hoof

celestia messing with the mane 6 and especially twilight. hilarious. twilight implying celestia would go easy on her.

- the cutie mark chronicles

brief, but twilight's whole cutiemark story.

season two

- lesson zero

celestia messing with twilight part two, and twilight being a wreck. ohh it's great.

- a canterlot wedding

if you like angst this has a brief moment just for that!

season three

- the crystal empire

twilight's biggest fear being disappointing celestia..

- magical mystery cure

the SONG? oh!!

season four

- princess twilight sparkle

if i remember correctly (this info is all on no recent rewatch of mlp), there is some twilestia here.

- twilight's kingdom

same as above. also you should watch it just because twilight is awesome.

season five

- make new friends but keep discord

the entire ending scene alone is worth watching for. celestia dragging twilight to the dance floor;

season six I can't think of any moments for! :( luckily, following seasons more than make up for it, in my opinion.

season seven

- celestial advice

the WHOLE THING! i need to do a twilestia analysis on this.

season eight

- horse play

ANOTHER TWILESTIA THEMED EPISODE! start to finish this is one of my absolute favorites.

season nine

- 2, 4, 6, greaat

celestia getting called a jock is good on its own, but it has some lovely twilestia interactions.

- the ending of the end (I believe? I could be getting this wrong.)

it's so incredibly telling that the whole song is about these ponies' dreams, their aspirations, things that maybe aren't exactly likely but damnit, the gala is spectacular, and miracles happen at miraculous places..

..and twilight sparkle, protege of the sun, who's frankly spent the season making friendships and forging (what will prove to be) lifelong bonds with people as well as being said protege practically her entire life, has her own little verse where she sings about having celestia's attention the whole night.

at the gala, with the princess, is where I'm going to be

we will talk all about magic and what I've learned and seen

it is going to be so special, as she takes time just for me!

and towards the end, just to reinforce it

fluttershy: To meet! applejack: To sell! rarity: To find! rainbow dash: To prove! pinkie pie: To whoop! twilight sparkle: To talk!

every twilight and celestia interaction in this episode is so baiting the shippers. celestia you can't be saying this stuff.

Well, I want you right by my side the entire evening, so we'll have plenty of time together!

the look on her face?
