Continuation of my Masquerade/Soarin drawrings hehehe :3c

Figure they eventually meet up again sometime after the Canterlot wedding........ At this point she's (as far as she's aware) the only Changeling left in Canterlot. Masquerade is afraid of what Soarin knows, and consequently she has to seek him out, unsure of what the outcome of that interaction will be and whether or not he'll do anything with the information he has. They meet in private where she confesses/apologizes to Soarin about deceiving and using him, but he's like super chill about it he just misses his friend. :)

They have a long conversation about Changelings,,, since he knows her secret. He promises not to tell anyone about what she is so long as she answers all his questions, not that he would expose her, but the pretend leverage is a little bit helpful when she's so tightlipped typically. Masquerade has never been cut off from the hive like this before, and she admits she may need help sustaining herself, which he obliges so long as she stays, not in a forceful way but like an "I enjoy your company and would miss you" way haha.

I think her feeding off him wouldn't be severe enough to impact Soarin in any diminishing ways, minor fatigue potentially, but still able to do his Wonderbolts stuff. Might be why he has baggy eyes.
