You know, I never thought of it until now, but if Celestia or Luna wanted romance, it would be very hard even by royalty standards. Even if you're an accomplished soldier type, she's an immortal ruler/sun goddess. Even the royalty of other nations aren't, as far as we know, older than the nations themselves, responsible for cosmic forces, and more magical than the rest of their populations combined. Can you imagine anybody having the guts to try to have a relationship with her? Twilight, Celestia's most beloved student who she's like a second mother to, thinks she'll send her back to magic kindergarten over one small mistake, and everypony else is only more afraid of her. Even if they'd not say no if asked because nobody says no to her, and even if Celestia pinkie promised that no matter what, she will not unmake them, incinerate them, send them to the moon, or banish them from Equestria and lock them in a dungeon in the place she banishes them to,  they'd still probably be so nervous that they'd have a coronary long before anything like a relationship could develop.

Same goes for Luna. She's awesome, but she's scary; we got a whole episode devoted to that. If she forgets to turn it down, her voice will send you flying across the room, her hooves crack the earth, and her mood warps the weather, and she was their devil until a few years ago, and she's so badass there wasn't a royal guard until after her banishment - think of how many there are any time we see the royal folks. All of them - oh, and the Wonderbolts too - belong to the organization established when one pony went away, and now that pony is in front of you now, being careful not to cause destruction just by being there. Could you romance her? Could you even think of it?

I guess that makes this guard really special. 

...I forgot to actually comment on the art itself. It's beautiful, but then, so is everything you make, so I guess I'm telling you nothing you don't know! You do tender scenes like this very well.
