Lighting the Past

BG: [link] [link]

Ok, so I'm reuploading this with a new headcanon...
And I'm worried I'll come off like rubbing salt in a wound. And i really dont want to do that, but I really like this idea, and I'm afraid ill make cat angry or sad again and i dont want to do that but I'm trying to make this different than what she was doing... I'm sorry Cat if this is rubbing salt, but you really inspired me

So that whole "Northern Lights=Lightning Dust" was a horrible prank from some douche, and I feel really bad for Cat (And now I'm afraid she doesnt want my sympathy because it might be touchy but if it isnt ill come off as a jerk and im going to stop here before I go into a spiral) but I really liked the idea of Lightning dust being from the future, but I understand cat not wanting anything to do with that anymore, so I'm not going to make her northern lights. I just got really inspired by the idea she posted in Busted My Chance (deleted deviation in which lights was trying to get dash kicked out) and I started thinking about how I could work the idea into my headcanon, and then I thought about what she said about the same old future, and then it clicked for me, what if she didnt just create her future? What if she disturbed the time continuum in a way that made pinkiedash canon in this universe? So now that northern lights isn't at all lightning dust, that busts my headcanon, right? [link] !

TL,DR; Lightning Dust is a Spitdash daughter from an alternate timeline in my universe (IE; All the same world building shit), in which Dash is accepted into the wonderbolts without an intervention from Lightning, and Pinkie did get letters back from RD. Might draw that verse sometime.
