A Twin Canterlots story—second in the Cook’s Tour series

What’s the reward for a job well done? Another job. Cookie Pusher, the junior diplomat keeping an eye on Sunset Shimmer and her friends, has pleased his superiors with his diligence and competence. Deciding he’s ready for bigger and better things—and not wanting to brief in yet more people about the portal—they assign him a new task: travel through the portal as chargé d’affaires en pied to open diplomatic relations with Equestria.

Takes place about twelve months after “Through the Mirror” and six months after “Rainbow Rocks”—early in season six.
