The Secret of Prince Blueblood
Luna was gazing at the landscape below her for the first time in a millennia as she rode in the royal carriage with her sister. She couldn’t help but think of what had changed with her banishment as she spotted towns that didn’t even exist all those years ago, and the few she did recognize by location had grown much larger over the years. However the changes she would face in this new time could wait a little longer. She was finally free of the darkness that had gripped her and was united with her sister once again. Nothing could ruin this day for her.
“Luna,” Celestia said.
“Yes big sister?”
“Well… How do I say this,” Celestia said as she brought her hoof up to her chin, “well… the family has grown since you were gone.”
“Family?”
“Yes. Do you remember Swift Hoof, the stallion that dad always hated?” Celestia continued.
“Yes. Wait… did you two?”
“About two years after your banishment,” she said quickly before continuing at a normal speed, “anyway you have a bunch of nieces and nephews. Don’t even try to add the “great” into it, after a thousand years its easier just to call them nieces and nephews.”
“Ok… How many nieces and nephews do I have?”
“Too many to count, most threw their royalty away to live simpler, more meaningful lives, chances are you may never meet them. However a few still live in the castle… though only because they are lazy or can’t live out in public due to ‘problems’ they have,” Celestia let out a sigh, “the thing I do for family.”
“What do you mean by problems?” Luna asked, she ignored Celestia’s last comment knowing it didn’t apply to her, or at least hoped it didn’t.
“Well… It will be easier if you saw yourself. We are almost to the castle and I’m sure he will be there to greet us. He is one of the few nephews that actually cares about his duty as a prince.”
Luna continued to watch the landscape for the rest of the flight to the castle. She wondered how her ‘family’ would take her return. Would they shun her for being Nightmare Moon and look at her like a monster, or would they be as forgiving as Celestia and welcome her with open arms? And what of these “problems” Celestia mentions? Her mind was so wrapped in thought that she didn’t even notice they landed within the castle walls and coming out to meet them was a tall white unicorn with a blond mane and tail.
“Auntie! You have returned,” the unicorn said.
Luna noticed his tone of voice, it was as if he was upset they had returned. Not wanting to cause problems Luna remained quiet, but still cast a dirty glare at who she was hoping wasn’t one of her nephews Celestia had been talking about.
“It is good to see you to Blueblood,” Celestia said with a smile as she got out of the carriage, “how have you been while I was gone?”
“Horrible, the peasant won’t stop bothering me,” Blueblood said, “And the treasury is running low. I won’t be able to take a proper rose bath with the meager amount we have!”
“I see, that bad today. Anyway that can wait for now I want you to meet your other aunt,” Celestia said as she turned back to the carriage, “Luna come on out.”
Luna walked out of the carriage, still giving Blueblood a dirty look and wondering why Celestia wasn’t doing the same.
“...This whelp is my aunt as well?” Blueblood said clearly unimpressed.
“Whelp?! Celestia how can you just stand there while-” Luna shouted in anger before being interrupted by Celestia’s hoof.
“Blueblood, Being my sister, and co-ruler after getting brought up to speed, it is ok to drop the act around her.”
“But” Blueblood whined.
“Its ok.” Celestia said reassuringly.
“As you wish,” Blueblood said, his snobbish attitude vanished , “I apologize for how I was acting, but you-”
Before Blueblood could finish he brought his foreleg up and hit himself hard across his face. The blow knocked him off balance and he fell on his side and began to flail around uncontrollably.
“What?” Luna asked in shocked horror
“Lily Cock!” Blueblood shouted.
After Blueblood yelled his flailing stopped and he picked himself up as if nothing happened.
“Where was I? Ah yes sorry about acting like a snob, but if I don’t ‘Lily Cock!’ act that way I have weird ‘Lily Cock!’ spasms. Most of the time I just ‘Flabbergasting Walls!’ say word at random with no control. Most of which are vulgar terms that no pony should be saying. However on bad days like today I-”
As if in que, Blueblood raised his hoof again, this time however he hit himself in the chest, knocking the wind out of him. He fell to the ground wheezing.
“Dangly Ball!” Blueblood shouted out wheezing, “On bad days I hit myself, again no control of it,” Blueblood then turned to face Celestia, “Can I ‘Fuck!’ get back to acting now please? I think she has seen enough.”
Celestia Just gave a nod. With that Blueblood stood up and wiped his head causing his hair to swish behind his head.
“Great, know that I’ve meet the whelp I got to get back to my rose bath. See you later auntie.” Blueblood said, his snobbish attitude returning as he walked away.
Luna was speechless, her mouth was agape at the spectacle that had just happened before her.
“The look on your face says it all little sister, let me explain,” Celestia said taking notice of Luna’s expression, “Blueblood has a rare condition, like he said he has moments of random verbal outbursts and on bad days he physically lashes out uncontrollably as well. As for his acting like a snob, we found one day that when Blueblood is being snobbish, his outbursts stop. Still don’t know why but it works and the snobbish attitude is better than half the words I’ve heard come out of his mouth,” Celestia stopped and shuttered at the thought of the words she had heard come from Blueblood.
“Any way, unlike your other nieces and nephews, Blueblood truly cares for our subjects and is surprisingly fair in his judgments. When he said ‘the peasants were bothering him’ he actually meant that the noble class is harassing the working class again and need to be addressed. We have developed a kind of code over the years.”
Luna started to come out of her shock as Celestia spoke.
“So, he is not in full control of himself unless he acts like a snob,” Luna said sadly.
“True, and because of it he has a bad reputation among the ponies that know of him. Only a few know the real him.”
“So he is at war with a demon, figuratively speaking, and the act is to hide it for others?”
“That is one way of putting it, but it’s a ‘demon’ that we haven’t figured out how to banish yet.”
“What keeps Blueblood going?”
“What kept you going while on the moon?”
There was silence for a moment before Luna answered the question.
“Hope. Hope of being released.”
