Galaxiour; My Child there is one option that would guarantee Luna's place permanently on the throne. Though it would mean something you would not like.
What is it?
((Accurate depiction of what I would do.))
((Hahahaha. Though, yeah, I can understand that reaction))
…Wait, I thought Spiders hated water, why is that one in a toilet?
((ooc: The space between the rim and the seat in little-used outhouses or public restrooms is a popular location for spider nests. They’re well protected against predators and tend to attract insects.))
Galaxiour; Ah here is one probelm, you see Corona is not considered "born of" Celestia. By law she has the same problem as yourself.
Your acknowledgement of her as Celestia’s offspring should be enough, unless Celestia chooses to disavow her (which We doubt she will do, since that will make Molestia her heir). Our only option is to marry Corona.
*Apple Bloom looks around, what little light exists in this place rapidly vanishing; she and Nightmare Moon can see each other as clearly as ever, but little to nothing else is visible* Alright, now ah'm here ah just gotta find mah friends. *she walks forward, calling out* Scootaloo! Scoot-Scootaloo! *no response*
*Nightmare Moon’s horn glows, and she sends out a global search pulse for unicorns (the easiest ponies to locate magically).*
Listen, I understand you're angry, but revenge will only bring you more suffering, and nothing more. If you try to harm Celestia in any way, shape or form, though, you'll have to get though me first.
We expect We’ll have to get through legions of Royal Guards, unicorn battle mages, and various ‘surprises’ in order to bring harm to Celestia. Adding one more unicorn to that list doesn’t impress Us much.
Of course, sometimes We will pretend to get really into it, if We think it’ll creep the other pony out.
Starbuck ended up getting lucky that way.
*Kiss* It was a dare.
We understand. Though We don’t know why ponies think kissing Us is such a good dare. We don’t think We’ve ever reacted negatively. Well, once, when Celestia did it.
*She gives Soarin a friendly kiss back on the cheek.*
Galaxiour; Would that it were, Corona is not the eldest. She was born of the same manner as you and technically younger than yourself. If anything Fusion would be next in line. That is if her birth is not disputed.
It’s not the means of birth that’s the problem, but the fact that it must be somepony that can be considered Celestia’s daughter. Read the fine print. Luna’s children, including Us, are disqualified, since Luna steps down when Celestia dies. Celestia’s two eldest daughters, or Celestia’s eldest daughter and her spouse, will take over should Celestia die.
As you can see, We have only one way to solve this.
