“Queen Novo may come off as a bit rough and harsh, but once you get to know her, she’s actually quite the soft spot. She can be very affectionate and doesn’t mind hugs at all. Though she has to be careful with creatures she hugs as a SeaPony, as they can’t hold their breaths underwater for long periods of time like she can. They’ll probably let her know, however.  
So yesterday was the 3rd anniversary of the MLP movie, and of course I would end up drawing one of my favorite characters from said movie. You could consider this a warmup for this year’s Novoember, which will be here before you know it. I certainly can’t wait.”
