Stheno being able to claim Celestia as a thrall is definitely an XK-class event, he would be able to alter celestia's solar manipulation ability so that it causes the sun to instead give off gamma radiation instead of the UV light that negatively interferes with his abilities. imagine the "daybreaker" S but the light turning everyone into hulk monsters instead of hostile goop in that case.
It's very unlikely to happen since she's got a lot of things going for her to keep stheno from infecting her (I imagine radiation resistance being one of them) but with sufficient power he could overwhelm her and you'd have to do time travel shenanigans to un-fuck things (since stheno is a chaos being though the whole "he's already there" would go into effect if you attempt a reversal of causality at any point that it would stop him, but at least then it would be a 1v1 confrontation). I would love to kind of see this drawn out, though I kind of feel there are more pressing matters at hand that I need to attend too to get too bogged down in the fanfic stuff lol
ANYWAYS thanks to
faogwolf! I really appreciated his creative input here, I pulled up a 1950's monster movie poster/book cover or 2 with Frankenstein or Dracula doing the whole bridal carry thing, but he went with a kind of Dracula from the "Van Hellsing" movie during the vampire masquerade dance, and while I was a little skeptical at first it did work out pretty well and seemed rather in character.

Also, lol '"daybreaker" S'... Celestia's alternate form is actually named Daybreaker!
Now THAT'D be a real MLP season finale to end all finales. Stheno in one master stroke would become ruler of Equestria, wielding the same authority over all his hulking converts as the S-verse sun.
Small wonder then he seems to be making a true ceremony of this conversion, he's doing it slowly, savoring it and with etiquette...a dance of doom.
My only speculation is Celestia's only mildly shocked expression, I kinda imagine she'd be far more horrified or despairing given such an immense win by Stheno.
kind of tangent, I actually had an idea where stheno was the ruler of a version of equestria by the people's own free will and kind of a happy ending in a fucked up way, I was thinking maybe after some kind of start to a redemption arc they still had to banish him after he perhaps helped to defeat an even bigger villain due to how inherently corruptive and out of sync with their version of harmony he was, but it was less of a punishment and more like he was sent somewhere he was needed to restore balance, which would be the "fallout:equestria" universe lol. he's pretty much the only one who could fix such a blighted planet after their war. maybe I'll get someone to explore that some day, I don't have the time to do it myself.
They'd probably trick him to go there, trying to bribe with with promises of amazing scientific discoveries and mutants just begging to be improved upon. Course then again, while only something like Stheno could fix that wasteland up, one mans utopia could easily become all other ponies corrupt plutocratic cyberpunk dystopia.
Could MAYBE do more with smudge proof but he’s kinda pricey compared to slug lol. I did find a person or 2 willing to collaborate with me on the cost for that sort of thing…so eh… I could hit him back up?
