The words of a Dragon
A day in Canterlot
Previous Chapter“Thank you, come again!” Said the busy merchant.
It was a fine day in Equestria, in fact, it was the best weather they’ve had all week actually.
“Finally! A nice day to go out shopping!” Pinkie Pie said as she and Twilight Sparkle (well Princess Twilight Sparkle) walked through the bustling streets of the Canterlot marketplace.
“Well it has been raining all week. I’m just glad we can finally go out without getting soaked.” Twilight responded.
She was relieved that she could go out with Pinkie today, every other day this week has been too muddy and rainy to step foot outside of the library without heavy rain gear on. And even then it wouldn’t be enough to protect against the harsh elements.
“But look on the bright side! The weather team is giving us 3, super duper nice days to make up for all the recent downpours!” Pinkie Pie was now bouncing up and down in excitement next to Twilight.
As you would expect, this turned a few heads in the market. To most of the sophisticated, douchebaggy, upper-class ponies, hopping like an idiot in a public place was considered ‘uncouth’.
“Look at them. Such filthy, lower class ponies don’t belong even setting hoof in a high-class place such as Canterlot!” Said a passerby who was wearing way, and I mean way too much makeup for anybody to deal with. (I swear, most of her face was just product and cleaning oils.)
“How dare you talk about the Princess and the Element of Laughter that way! You have no right.”
Of course, both Twilight and Pinkie heard this. And turned their heads to see who it was exactly was defending them.
“Fancy Pants!?” Both of the ponies exclaimed in unison.
The blue mained colt stood there looking at them, a smile on his face, and the mare Elizabeth basically fawning over him (And I mean literally, over him, like, she was on top of him.)
“These two ponies are two of the most important ponies in all of Equestria! And personal friends of mine.”
“Oh! Fancy Pants! Um..uh, my sincerest apologies to all of you. I was not aware.”
She clumsily trotted away, obviously stunned that she had indirectly insulted one of the most important ponies in Canterlot.
“Are you two alright?” Fancy Pants asked, concerned. “I hope she didn’t offend you too much.”
Elizabeth somehow changed position on him, now standing at his side, her head leaning against his.
“Oh, no. Not at all.” Twilight reassured him, the concern left his expression.
“I apologise for that, the ponies here can be quite snobby at times.”
“Oh no, it’s fine! This kind of thing happens a lot when we come here.” Twilight replied laughing a bit.
There was an awkward silence for a while, the only time they really met and talked was at the Garden Party held in the garden outside of the building that Twilights’ birthday party was being held in.
“Well, it was nice seeing you again!” Pinkie Pie said as they started to walk away.
“Wait! Would you two like to come to my home for some tea sometime?” He offered.
“Well, ok. Hows the day after tomorrow sound?” Twilight responded.
“Perfect. We will have everything ready by then, and you can bring your friends as well.” He said.
“We’ll ask them.” Pinkie said, “Have a super day!”
“Same to you.”
Fancy Pants walked away from the two ponies. Leaving them to continue on with their day.
As Twilight and Pinkie Pie walked through the shopping districts of Canterlot, they had various conversations about this and that, like who would want to have tea with them and Fancy Pants.
“Well, Rarity of course would definitely want to go, she would never pass up an opportunity to have tea with one of the most important ponies in Canterlot. And Fluttershy, might want to go.” Twilight stated.
“I don’t think Rainbow Dash would want to go. But we should ask her just in case.” Pinkie put in.
“And if Rarity is going, AJ would probably want to go as well.” Twilight said.
Twilight has been having a lot on her mind lately. Of course she would never tell anyone about it, especially not Pinkie. Because most of her thoughts were about her. She was thinking that, maybe she should ask somepony for advice, about what to do with her little problem.
‘I should ask Applejack and Rarity!’ She thought to herself. ‘I mean, they are in a relationship, they should have some advice, right?’.
As the day grew older, Twilight and Pinkie had a great time. As they both rode the 8:15 train back to Ponyville, it was getting late, the sun was setting, and the train ride was at least 3 hours long.
45 minutes in, Twilight was feeling tired and her eyelids felt heavy. She felt herself drifting off to sleep. Looking to the right of her, she found that Pinkie Pie was asleep next to her. She smiled lightly, drifting off to sleep, she dreamt about what life would be like, if she and Pinkie were together. A dream she was determined to make a reality.
