Right Behind Me: When Star starts talking on duty in the opening chapter, naturally Luna picks that exact moment to enter the picture. Apparently Star forgot that doors can be opened from the inside as well.

Anti-Magic: Dragonfire resists magic. When Starstep has his wings burnt, they absorb this particular property, though this also means that the wounds cannot be healed magically.

Brutal Honesty: Luna values this trait immensely. One reason Starstep manages to win her over — after a few learning experiences — is when she is satisfied he will never withhold the truth from her, regardless of the consequences.

Ruling Couple
 To Love the Moon (Fanfic) / int_30849c3e
comment
Ruling Couple: An interesting variant. While Celestia and Luna rule Equestria jointly, when Starstep marries Luna he also takes on several responsibilities of ruling. Combined with his status as Luna's Shadow Guard (making him her proxy when she is not available), this ultimately grants him a significant amount of authority, power, and influence. Luna also points out that irrespective of Star's disregard for his title of Prince, it means something to other ponies.

Even Evil Has Standards: Steelhoof is very angry about the actions of his (ex) enforcer, Granite, after the enforcer assaults Dinky, and later tries to murder her, Sweetie Belle, and Pip by burning their house down. That said, Steelhoof is probably more concerned out of pragmatic, rather than moral reasons.

Character Development
 To Love the Moon (Fanfic) / int_3b113b7
comment
Character Development: Plenty of it: Starstep matures significantly into someone worthy of standing by Luna's side, but also becomes darker and more anti-heroic. Lighthoof develops into an effective leader and tactician. Luna becomes far happier as many of her hidden fears and pain are dealt with, and she becomes far more confident in herself, and that she's not an inferior version of her sister. She also displays far more affection, both towards Starstep as well as her subjects. Nightmare is particularly surprised by the latter, and notes how much Star has changed her in this regard.

Son of a Whore: Lighthoof is one. Unfortunately his mother was the complete opposite of a Hooker with a Heart of Gold and a terrible parent, leading to him having nothing but contempt for her. It also means that a "pleasure pony" is something of a sore spot for him. Or more specifically, one engaging in unlicensed/unsafe behaviour, and he has no tolerance for pimps.

Socially Awkward Hero: Star starts off as one, but matures significantly over the course of the story. invokedLuna has improved from her initial reintroduction to society, but still isn't completely there. Among other things, she appears as Nightmare Moon to Starstep and Lighthoof as a 'prank', though she quickly apologises when called out for the very poor taste of it all.

I Want My Beloved to Be Happy
 To Love the Moon (Fanfic) / int_60547993
comment
I Want My Beloved to Be Happy: This is actually Star's motivation in attempting to court Luna in the first place; he wants to make her happy. Though he'd just as readily see her happy with someone else, just as long as she was actually happy. Scootaloo feels this regarding Star. Luna herself feels this way regarding her lovers, and is more than willing to let them go if they're unhappy. She also offers Star a choice between publicly being her consort (with the benefits and drawbacks of being such a figure), or having a far more casual secret relationship with much more freedom, on the grounds that she could not bear it if he felt trapped and stiffled at her side.

Heroic Sacrifice
 To Love the Moon (Fanfic) / int_6439de78
comment
Heroic Sacrifice: Luna's first love, Goldwing, ended up sacrificing himself by taking a spear meant for her. Given that, in Celestia's own words "it always goes back to him", it appears Luna never fully got over his death. Star demonstrates this trait several times. The first is when after one of Luna's pranks goes awry, he immediately launches an attack on 'Nightmare Moon' in a rage, and then when he rescues Sweetie Belle and Dinky from a burning house. While his willingness to throw himself head first into danger initially upsets and infuriates Luna for fear of another Goldwing, she eventually realises that it's simply in Star's nature.

Backup Bluff: Lighthoof decides to use this tactic while on patrol in Chapter XXII, when assigned to patrol a large area with him and Star by themselves. Since all guards look the same in their armour, by using different flight paths it's possible to give the impression of there being many more guards.

Teacher/Student Romance
 To Love the Moon (Fanfic) / int_6d892421
comment
Teacher/Student Romance: A complicated example. While both Star and Cheerilee seem to fondly reflect on the other from time to time (and in Star's case with the occasional fantasies), there's no real hint of romantic interest from his time as her student. Having grown up, Star returns to Ponyville for a week in order to pick Cheerilee's brain on his current problems, and ends up developing a relationship of sorts with her after a liasion during her heat. While they don't end up in a formal relationship as such, both clearly care for the other a great deal, though both also have other ponies foremost in their hearts.

Culture Clash
 To Love the Moon (Fanfic) / int_70ade2c4
comment
Culture Clash: Star nearly causes an incident at an official function in Chapter XIII due to this, when he knocks out a griffon insulting Luna in an attempt to defend her honour. Not only is this a highly embarrassing breach of protocol from Luna's perspective, but by griffon standards it also ends up making her look weak and dishonourable. Thankfully both sides agree to pretend the matter never happened, but not before Starstep is suspended and banished for a week, and comes a hairsbreadth from losing all chance of ever being with Luna.

comment
The Oldest Profession: Prostitution is legal in Equestria, albeit licensed and regulated, and common in the more seedy parts of Canterlot. Steelhoof also runs his own brothels, and suggests to Star that Sweetie Belle can pay back her debt via working there if she can't afford the repayments on her loan.

Naughty by Night
 To Love the Moon (Fanfic) / int_834b4abe
comment
Naughty by Night: Both princesses show this, with both aspects of the trope being justified; as royalty they have to maintain a certain public image. Also, having lived for such a long time, they're interested in finding new ways to enjoy themselves, and have had a long time to figure out what quirks they do like. From the brief insight into Lighthoof and Sherry's love lives, both seem to heartily subscribe to this. Starstep seems well on his way towards this. Both by virtue of Luna demanding and expecting an adventurous bedroom spirit from her lovers, but also in his own right, if offhand comments are to be believed.

First Girl Wins: An extremely complicated example. Scootaloo and Starstep were childhood sweethearts, but even at a young age he only really had eyes for Luna. After they bump into each other in Canterlot and have a one night stand, Scootaloo is secretly heartbroken when she realises Star will never love her in the way she loves him. Meanwhile, Star eventually comes to realise what she means to him (even if Luna is first in his heart), and Luna is happy to accept Scootaloo into their relationship. This is then complicated when Scootaloo ends up breaking off from the relationship for fear of being in Luna's shadow, only to eventually rejoin when Star manages to convince her that he wants her in his life, and that he appreciates her for who she is.

Anti-Hero: Star develops into one over the course of the story. While still overall a very heroic character, he drops a serial rapist into lava rather than let him escape, and psychologically tortures a griffon captive for information with Nightmare's help to gain information about an upcoming attack (with an extremely good reason to think the captive had that information). While Luna approves of such tactics when circumstances require them, she is also quick to remind him that if he ever steps too far into the darkness, she will be the one to personally deal with him.

Luna is furious when a pregnant petitioner accusing a unicorn stallion of Parental Abandonment is revealed to have restrained him using a magic dampener before overpowering him. Luna only deciding not to make an example and inflict a serious punishment at said stallion's request.

Compliment Backfire: Star's initial attempt to compliment Luna in Chapter VI nearly ends any chance of him having a relationship with her, after she takes great offense at Star telling her what he thinks she wants to hear, instead of his actual opinions (which are received far more warmly).

invokedLuna has improved from her initial reintroduction to society, but still isn't completely there. Among other things, she appears as Nightmare Moon to Starstep and Lighthoof as a 'prank', though she quickly apologises when called out for the very poor taste of it all.

comment
Broken Bird: Luna. While she hides it well beneath her regal mask and pranking, Star observes that she's secretly in a lot of pain. Contrite over her past, lonely, and still worrying about being overshadowed by her sister, she improves significantly when Star wins her affections and demonstrates he loves her for who she is, as well as when he's able to show her just how beloved she and her night really are by her subjects. Celestia is also not as happy and well rounded as she appears, and secretly desperate for affection and companionship. While she eventually chooses Lighthoof as her consort, her reasons for doing so are not healthy, a fact that Light himself is all too aware of, but he goes along with it out of what he perceives to be his duty.

No Good Deed Goes Unpunished: Dinky attempts to negotiate with Steelhoof over Sweetie Belle's extortionate loan. This results in her getting assaulted and nearly raped by an enforcer, until Star and Light show up. Though Dinky herself realises it was stupid to go alone. Starstep frees the spirits of Nightmare and Dawn from their prison, only for Nightmare to torment him specifically since it's allowed under the terms of their agreement (and because she finds it amusing).

comment
Undying Loyalty: Lighthoof is loyal to his princesses almost to a fault, since he engages in Celestia's unhealthy behaviour by agreeing to become her consort out of duty. Lighthoof also shows this towards Star, after Star helped and stood up for him during his attempts to get into the Royal Guard. Regardless of where Star goes, Light's got his back. Starstep would follow Luna to the ends of the earth if needed. Nightmare roundly mocks just how far he's willing to go for Luna's sake.
