SS meets Princess Twilight

Just thinking how jaded Princess Twi would be in the future
All her friends dying and being forced to move on
Even after SS told her the option of becoming a princess, one that Celestia was going to force on her. Still choosing to put her faith in Celestia because her teacher wanted to see her live to her full potential.
At the end of it all, SS manages to use the time scroll to propel her into after the events of season 9, after her friends are long gone. Confronting the Twilight again, after so many years.
"Do you regret your decision?"
>The silver fillies words hung in the air
>Princess Twilight looked down at the silver filly
>The sight was painful, she'd been a shoulder to cry on for the cutiemark crusaders when one of their number had finally passed of old age
>The same shoulder she'd offered to lil cheese when her mother had passed
>The room silver spoon was in was practically covered with paintings
>Many ponies she knew, the element bearers, her friends, and a few ponies she didn't recognize
>With a heavy sigh Twilight finally answered
>"Regret isn't an option for me silver spoon, once I chose this path I couldn't afford to regret it. I can only hope all I have done has been worth it."
>A cold chuckle escapes the alicorn, the only movement being her mane flowing in an unseen wind
>"Rarity would be proud I suppose, the ultimate action of generosity, putting everypony before myself for all eternity..."
"Because it was your decision."
>Twilight furrowed her brow, mostly in contemplation before nodding.
>"Yes. It was."
"Without me it wouldn't have been."
>"Yes. It wouldn't."
"...If it wasn't, would you still say that Celestia would have made the right decision?"
>Twilight was silent for a minute.
>"She only wanted the best for me, the best for all her ponies."
"She wanted the best for all of Equestria and her subjects. She saw potential for you, and wanted to use it."
>"She wanted me to use it." Twilight corrected, her words still held faith in her teacher. "And I did. And if I had the choice to do it all over again I would."
"You almost hadn't."
>"Almost." Her gaze softened. "I suppose I should thank you Silver Spoon. For giving me that choice."
"You always had a choice, you just needed to realize it."
>Twilight chuckled. "And did you make the right choice?"
"Huh?"
>"You knew all along that would happen, did you not? And you changed it. Do you think you've made the right choice in telling me? Have you made a better future for everypony?"
"I-I, I don't know. I'd like to think so."
>Twilight smiled, before approaching SS and laying a hoof on her shoulder. "I'd like to think so too. How about we have some tea together? It's been some time."
"We had tea?"
>She chuckled again. "Yes, a great many times, over the course of years. Your age varied with each encounter. I could never guess what you knew and didn't."
