PHEW! This took me a few days to complete, but I'm pretty proud of it. So basically I was inspired by one of Kilalaaaa(?)'s latest journals about artists putting themselves out there. One thing she suggested was creating AUs showing existing characters in different views. I wanna do more art of this AU and others I'm thinking of in the future.

So, this is an AU where Rainbow Dash does not succeed in performing the Sonic Rainboom, and the mane 6 don't get their cutie marks. You may be wondering, "Wasn't this the Season 5 Finale???". Technically yes, but also no. At Nightmare Moon's arrival, Celestia was able to get to the elements of harmony first, and used them on Nightmare Moon turning her back to Luna. In all the instances where the mane 6 used the elements, its Celestia and Luna using them. Anyways, the mane 6's lack of cutie marks has changed them a lot, so let me give you a quick description of each of them~

Twilight Sparkle: Because the Sonic Rainboom didn't happen, Twilight's magical power wasn't triggered and she failed her test. Celestia gave Twilight the chance to retake her test a few weeks later which Twilight passed. Twilight is now working as a teacher in Celestia's school, and she is married to her friends Moondancer. Twilight also works on the side tutoring fillies and colts in their magic abilities so they can pass their own entrance test for Celestia's academy.
Applejack: AJ's aunt and uncle continued to mold her into the perfect little Manehattanette. AJ now lives in a penthouse in Manehattan with AppleBloom, and she is a major contributor to the Apple Family Business's marketing. The Apple Parents are also alive.
Pinkie Pie: Pinkie grew up to be the obedient foal her parents trained her to be. She still works at the rock farm day and night trying to please her parents. She has many scars across her body and face, from both work and her own parents. Applejack orders many rocks from the farm, and Pinkie is AJ's favorite delivery mare.
Rarity: Rarity was never able to break open the rock she found as a filly, so she believed working with rocks was her destiny. She was taken into the Pie Family, and still works at their farm to this day. She hates her workload but she is thoroughly convinced that rock farming is her special talent. She loathes Applejack's high life-style, for Rarity wishes she had it for her own.
Fluttershy: Fluttershy was never able to find out she could communicate with animals. She still lives in her Ponyville cottage with her animals, but she is completely oblivious that they understand her. She typically spends her time now wandering gardens and forests, selling flowers and running a little vet service with her girlfriend TreeHugger. Also, I headcannon Fluttershy as a transgender mtf.
Rainbow Dash: Because of Rainbow's complete failure in the race she competed in as a filly, she became a social outcast usually hanging around Fluttershy. No one really remembers the race anymore, but Dash does. She extremely discouraged in flying, and will chicken out whenever she tries. Rainbow spends her days living with Flutters and TreeHugger helping them with their business.

WOW. Longest description I've done! I just want to try the AU business, so definitely expect more in the future!
