Phew! These absences are getting longer! Sorry about the lack of activity everyone, there’s been a lot in my hands lately to be able to make art to post. ;w;
Anyways, we’re in the #Mermay Challenge month and I wanted to draw something for it so badly, at least one wiiiddle drawing. And then it hit me! An idea I’ve been trying to sketch down since the MLP movie was released.
Despite her unconditional love for flora and beauty of the forests, deep down Harmony secretly loved the submerged world inhabited by the Sea Ponies and dreamed of one day being able to see it the way Sea ponies do.
While growing up she heard stories from her parents about the Sea ponies and their kingdom in the depths of the ocean. This curiosity helped developing her interest in swimming later on in her teenage years as she slowly reinforced her health and became independent, turning it into one of her favorite daily activities right next to running.
She even met a few Hippogriffs whom shared their stories about their sea roots and that only increased her curiosity about their world. But Harmony could never bring herself to ask any of them to use their transformation power on her, even if was just for a few seconds to experience how it felt like to be a mermare. She thought it would be selfish of her to ask such favors from them, and settled for what she had in her swimming sessions.
Harmony accomplishes this small dream of hers a few years in the future thanks to Pandemonium’s slick nature for secret planning. The two cheesy love birds share everything with each other, their fears, their dreams and secret passions. Heck even the lamest things imaginable. And so when Harmony confessed this little dream of hers the prince secretly put his paws to work right away. Nothing would make him happier than seeing Harmony happy, and this was something he just HAD to do for her. After a lot of-quoting his own words- BOOOOOOOOORING politics and paper work between his parents and Queen Novo, he set off for a “quick expedition” with a plus one to Seaquestria. A “genius plan” he called proudly.
Pan used his magic to form oxygen bubbles for him and Harmony as they made way to the underwater kingdom. And shortly after their introduction to Queen Novo and Princess Skystar, Harmony was called to approach them. As Novo held up the Pearl of Transformation to the guest magic suddenly burst out of it and when Harmony opened her eyes she was utterly surprised to see that she now had fins.
This experience lasted just a few hours but for Harmony it felt like a lifetime and she couldn’t be happier, even more so that her dorky prince did it all for her happiness. Pan said they could repeat the experience anytime she felt like because he “took care of all the boring paperwork”, but Harmony just chuckled and said that one time was enough to treasure in her memories.
