Second of the 10 upcoming Bronycon prints!
 
Had an idea for a story, but I no write so good, so I drew it instead ^^
 
—  
Basically, Twilight assigns Tempest to go apologize for what she’s done and make friends. Understandably, not too many ponies are quick to hear Tempest out after all she’s done. Tempest accepts the reality of the situation she put herself in and gives up trying.  
Twilight, however, comes up with an idea and convinces Tempest to try one last time. Twilight sets Tempest up to apologize to Derpy. Tempest not only apologizes, but the two end up getting along rather well.  
Derpy empathizes with Tempest and explains that when she was younger, she was an outcast as well. She can understand why Tempest felt the need to ‘fix’ herself at any cost to fit in with others. Derpy goes on to explain that as she grew up, she realized she didn’t need to ‘fix’ herself at all to fit in. She was true to herself and those that gravitated to her wound up being her true friends.  
Tempest and Derpy bond over their somewhat similar pasts. Tempest succeeds in apologizing, makes a new friend and even learns a bit from Derpy and her life. Tempest sees that this whole making friends thing may not be all that impossible after all.  

 
And there’s a super quick, simplified version of the story that went through my head for some reason.  
For whoever wants to turn that sloppy jumble of thoughts into an actual cohesive story, be my guest! I’d love to see what a writer (Unlike myself) could do with this premise.
