Not Author Notes:I had no tags for this tbh. to the real author notes though…

I’m glad to finally have this done. To celebrate Christmas, I decided to draw the Next Mane 6. I really like how they came out. And you may or may not like the shipping decision I made for this, but I hope you appreciate it anyways. Anyways, let me explain each one from left to right.

Sunlight Dancer

Mother – Rainbow Dash; Father – Soarin

Nicknamed Greenie Hats for her obsession with hats. She grew a custom to hide her big ears since a few bullies picked on her about it. While she hides it, she still stands up for herself, even for others. Tumble mostly helps her out. She does like to make hats, even for friends. She dreams of having her own shop of hats and collecting them from foreign places. She stands up to her fears after the incident with Princess Twilight being kidnapped, but she still likes to wear hats. She is a fan of Nikula’s Books. She is best friends with Thea and Tumble. While Thea never spoke to Sunlight again after a certain reveal, they became friends again after the incident.

Ricotta Pegmatite Pie

Mother – Pinkie Pie; Father – Cheese Sandwich

Nicknamed Peggy Pie for short. She loves her mama and papa, and joins along the party. After her papa passed away from an accident, she completely lost it. Pinkie Pie did everything she can to make her happy, but Peggy just stays in her room, and just writes in the dark. One day, when Princess Twilight got kidnapped, Peggy was shocked to hear and left to help out. She looked up to Twilight. She joins along old friends, and while they were looking down, she tries to cheer them up. And from that time, she decided to continue bringing smiles to sad ponies, and her father’s legacy.

Twilight Hellen Licht

Mother – Twilight Sparkle; Father – Flash Sentry

Named after her great grandmother, Hellen Licht. While her mother tries to get her more into magic, Hellen is more into science and alchemy. While she would love to be the next Princess, just the title Princess of Magic sounds tacky and cheap. She got her ideas from Seyes, her best friend in school, and how they ace in Science and Tech all the time. After her mother got kidnapped, many friends gathered together to try to save her. Hellen starts to understand magic a little bit more after that.

Seyes

Mother – Rarity; Father – Fancy Pants

Seyes loves technology and science. She finds it really amusing. She is best friends with Twilight Hellen Licht. Seyes dreams of making something new to the world. She does love toys, and likes to craft them. She even tries to sell them, but not many cared, like something is missing. Rarity kind of spoiled her a bit with toys back then. While Rarity does like it if Seyes went to designing dresses like her, but Seyes rather make sewing machines than sewing dresses, even though she has the potential to do it. Her and Rarity do have similarities of designing, anyways. Like Hellen, she understands how magic is after the rescue of Princess Twilight, and she wishes to study it more. Maybe even put magic in her toys.

Fiji Appleoak

Mother – Applejack; Father – Nikula Alder

Fiji is the kind that puts the blame on her brother during their childhood. Always fighting, and their parents would try to fix the problem. They eventually become good to best friends. Fiji dreams of making it big with theater and drama. She was always marked B-rank. Her brother, Raisin Brandy, helps out whatever he cans. He works on being a producer, and he would try out everything to get his own sister in the big leagues, even with little experience, and mostly did production on the fields. They both agree of one day making Nikula’s Books into play and movies. After the Twilight incident, she understands that she really needs the support from friends to make her dreams come true.

Lillie de Thea

Mother – Fluttershy; Father – Discord

It’s some kind of miracle, and even having a twin brother named Tumble. Tumble was the one that sticks up for her when bullies pick on her. She gets tired of Tumble sticking up for her. She was always jealous of Tumble, how he gets the friends, even if he looks different. He just knows his way around. She does become friends with Sunlight Dancer. When Thea finds out that Sunlight has a thing for Tumble, she just loses it, and doesn’t want to deal with any pony anymore. Tumble tries to talk to her, but she just shuts him up. He wishes to know why. Thea ends up being home schooled for the time. She just doesn’t like any pony. Fluttershy tries everything to have Thea make up to her brother. Eventually, she did, but still doesn’t like anyone else but her family. She comes up a plan to one day kidnap Princess Twilight after she has enough power. Tumble and the rest come together to try to save twilight, and talk to Thea if they can. She just only cared for herself. She came to their side, and calmed down. She one day helps out someone she never met. It felt kind of nice. She starts leaning more and more to thinking about others, and she wants to help. She decided to become a doctor. Her brother thought of the same, but Thea is much better at her job.

Well, hope you like. I could have craft more to them on their story, but I told what I could for now. Spent way too much time as it is.
