Spike's Diary

Dear Diary,

Princess Celestia. A good mare. A wise mare. A mare we all look up to and respect, who has guided Equestria for countless ages and is beloved by all. But boy is she a terrible actress! I mean, words cannot even begin to describe just how bad she was when Twilight put her on stage. You see, there was this big anniversary of an important sunrise for the Princess, and Twilight wanted to commemorate the day with a play about her life. Sadly, Celestia, after having the chance to play as herself, soon proved that, as good a leader as she is, pretending to be herself apparently isn't on her long list of positive traits.

But Twilight, who adores her as much as anypony, couldn't tell her, and when the truth finally came out, things were a bit upsetting for everypony. Thankfully, the two were able to reconcile, and Twilight learned that she should have just been open and honest with her about the whole thing from the start. Celestia still gets to be part of the play though, even though Fluttershy took on her role, and in the end, the play was actually all the better with Celestia's inclusion. I guess we shouldn't be surprised. I mean come on, a mare who's run the country for a thousand years by herself, of course she was going to be good at coordinating a single play.

But yeah, I hope everypony enjoyed the show, because I know I certainly did!
