Also Starlight enjoys being praised and having her ego stroked.

@marinus18  
Good point.

@Background Pony #EAE6  
She would be strict right now because he is new. Later on she would be more lax about things but when someone new is introduced she would try to do it exactly right.

@marinus18  
Can we even call that “praise”? It feels more like a very polite feedback, that covers positives and negatives.
 
However: I have a hard time to believe that she made her system so strict that even “compliments” are forbidden, not to mention, such rules would be impractical, or better said, not checkable.
 
Also: She is alone with him in her house and the rest of the town probably doesn’t know what’s going on, so why would she even care about staying 100% true to her system? She wouldn’t be the first political leader who makes “exceptions” in some fields.

I am kind of surprised Starlight is pushing the praise onto him. Isn’t she all about equality and that nobody has any superior skills?

@Iam_Nirek
 
It could work out that way but it would be a bit harder to insert drama, and it would be interesting to see them biker or him question her and his sanity whilst trying to take down a princess of equestrian, along with the distraction of their relationship possibly earning the relationship goals tag.

@stemo  
I just came up with a random idea - they are together even after Starlight’s reformation. I know, a bit off-topic, but mnaybe at even further point of this lovely comic it could have sense? :)

@Culu the Bluebeaver
 
Nice!

@stemo  
Thank you. I actually finished the “script” (their dialogue) for the next pages. But it will take again some time to draw it.

@Culu the Bluebeaver
 
I know I look forward to more ‘development’ between these two, whether that be character development or something else I leave that up to you (maybe booth if you would like)! I will be eagerly awaiting an update at any point in the future, anytime that works best for you of course as I don’t want poor quality.
 
In any case I hope you have a nice day and continue doing molestia’s work son!

@stemo  
Your comment is inspiring.

@redweasel
 
for all we know she may get feelings for him and try to ‘feign’ taking his cutie mark, at least it would be quite interesting to see her get emotionally involved against her intentions and maybe some drama after that, this could even make for a better villain story for why she wants to hurt twilight sparkle personally if she manages to make him leave starlight. Who knows, but I hope we get a sequel of her at least somewhat falling for him, like he tries to get into an actual relationship with her and does some stuff to help her and she finds herself appreciating someone caring for her directly for once. Something like that.
 
Anyway I hope you have a nice day!

@redweasel  
Yes, it does.
 
And: Not exactly.

it continues ♥
 
wait so is starlight going to feign pregnancy in order to get him to give up his cutie mark??

Full comic with sex and everything?

You mean this: https://derpibooru.org/2160838

I love Starlight’s expression here on the 2nd last bottom panel; would love to have a pic of just that. 🙂

@whatever4096  
Thank you very much :) I will rework the text now.

@Culu the Bluebeaver  
Yes, I believe they meant “pair” as in the same couple.
 
A few text suggestions:
 

@Iam_Nirek  
Thank you very much. BTW: Could it be you meant “pair”?

Wow, nice comic after all! :) Looking for a sequel of it with the same pare tbh. Have a nice day :)
