[Genderswap]

Prince Tempo and Gleaming Shield didn't get exactly what they expected when they got married. Flowers and roses are nowhere to be found in the torrent that is their daily life together. One fiasco follows another and they find themselves apart more and more often. Having concluded the latest trouble in the Crystal Empire, neither unicorn nor alicorn wished for another problem. It's unfortunate that Queen Oscura was such a paranoid ruler, as an overlooked trap ends with the royal couple in another impossible scenario. As time stands still, a disillusioned prince begins to wonder if escape is even desirable.

A short adventure that teaches the two a little bit about each other.

NOTES

1. Timeline is roughly between The Crystal Empire and Just for Sidekicks episodes.

2. You may wish to get familiar with the genderswapped names if you are not already. Several variations exist but there is a handy list of the more common ones at MLPGenderswap on deviantART.

3. I occasionally make use of fanon in my fics. However, I do NOT adhere to it.

4. Alternate Universe only because it's genderswap. As fimfiction.net lacks this category, it ends up as AU.
