bathtubs can never be trusted

  Well, Celestia was wrong. Very wrong about this being a good day. The lie about the holiday and raising the sun earlier didn't go well. Half the gryphons who woke from guest rooms were not pleased with this 'early sun day' as the guards called it. Celestia continued to pace back and forth the main hall, worried the governor would be offended by her doing this on his visiting time. Gryphons were known for there rage and short temper, and she might just declare war with the hot tempered gryphons.

  "Oh gosh I'm getting ahead of myself, I need to calm down." She hummed to herself quietly, hoping she could just skip to the end of today and hope it went well.

  "How's it going? nice and cozy with the general yet? Is there gonna be a war, you know a Chaotic WAR?" Asked (or hollered) a familiar yet annoying voice that just added to Celestia's problems infinitely literally. Celestia sighed.

  "What do you want Discord? I am extremely busy right now and I can't handle your antics?" Celestia stated, before she then saw something floating just at the corner of her eye. She turned to looked at it. " Florescent bath suds? Discord what are these for?"

  "I believe that you pour them in a bath and then it turns into bubbles and other great things happen." Discord said as he shoved it up his nose, disappearing and reappearing in Celestia's crown.

  "I know that! You know what Discord? Maybe if you wish on a star enough you'll get your chaotic war." Mused Celestia, face hoofing herself in her own mind. Discord snapped his fingers, and a map full of stars, a Hawaiian leaf shirt on, a pair of binoculars swinging around his neck appeared. Comical as Discord usually is but, unfortunately, he got old fast. Especially for Celestia, who now had this madman living in her castle. Discord continued to fumble around with his map stretching it this and that way.

  "You got any star in mind? I'd ask Luna but, she seems to be missing from your side right now so... hmm, Orions belt? No... Ursa major? Nah... Ugh this is to hard. Give me a hint."

  "I'm serious Discord nows not the time. Leave and maybe... I'll let you eat dessert early tonight when dinner is served."

  "REALLY? Fried mushrooms here I come!" With a swift flick of his wrist he was gone, probably going to ruin someone else's day. Celestia continued to pace when she heard someone re-enter the room.

  "Discord I said for you to lea- Governor I'm so sorry! I mistook you for someone else!" Celestia apologized fast enough to make Fluttershy seem slow to forgive.

  "What's that?" the governor said cleaning out one of his ears and... then flicking it across the room much to Celestia's disgust. She got her first glimpse of the governor. He was an older gryphon, who wore a gold encrusted monocle, a black top hat, and a bright red scarf around his neck, completed with the tuxedo that he wore. "What did you say, princess? My hearing long passed its age."

Celestia kept quiet, heart still quietly pounding. "Oh princess, I almost forgot to thank you for this morning.You see, my alarm clock didn't go off this morning, and I would have never been awoken by my guards. Your sun woke them up." The governor smiled.

  "Well um.. your welcome governor. Why did your guards have to wake you? Was my sun not bright enough today?" Celestia joked as she tried to brush it off with a chuckle.

  "I have a private conference room set up for us governor follow me please." Celestia said as she lead the way. She could fix this, it wasn't that bad. Yeah she had control over this... it was gonna go well.

5 mins later...

  "YOU SHALL NOT TAKE OUR LAND, DICTATOR!" The general screeched at the top of his old lungs, waving around his walking stick.

  "I merely suggested we merge farmland so the locals will get to know each other better-" Celestia attempted to explain.

  "HARLOT, WITCH, DEMON!!" The governor cawed at her as he was dragged out by his own guards.

Celestia sighed. She knew that the governor would come around; he had done so many times before. Still, the sight of him being dragged out brought her heart down.

  "Why me? Why today? why, why, WHY?" Celestia begged anything to make this day better. She didn't care if Luna came back with a giant cake. It wouldn't fix today.

... Well, maybe it would.

  "Tia? Is thou feeling the blues?" Luna entered the conference room. Great. Just when she didn't want to see her.

  "Not now Luna just, just five minutes please." Celestia pleaded. She felt like breaking down into tears, but she couldn't afford to look weak in front of her sister.

  "We would just like to notify thee that we art sorry and wish for thou forgiveness." Luna whispered to Celestia.

  "Five minutes, Luna." Celestia sighed. "Just... give me five minutes."

  "So thou does not accept thy apology?" Luna pulled back, tears beginning to brim her eyes.

  "No Luna, it's not like that. It's just-" Celestia began, but Luna cut her off.

  "NO... Its fine Tia. We understand what thou means, we no longer want thy forgiveness!"

  "Luna thats not what I-"

  "NO! Just be quiet! I don't want to hear it!" Luna took off, running up stairs, tears dripping from her eyes.

  "Great..." Celestia muttered. She looked at her reflection on a nearby mirror, and noticed something blue hidden in her mane. She took it off. "Soap? Discord... Well, a bath does sound good..."
