A corrupted perspective

Captain Shining Armor rested on the bridge, trying to concentrate on his spell.

"Is everything alright dear?" "Cadance" asked the groom, as "she" walked up to him.

"I have to concentrate on the spell. All of Canterlot is depending on me, and I can't let everypony down." The captain explained to "his bride", as he felt a slight migraine.

"That must be putting a lot of pressure on your shoulders huh? I mean, the fate of an entire capital resting solely on your hooves? You must feel exhausted...." "Cadance" "comforted" the captain.

"It is pretty tiring....." Shining Armor stated....

"I don't blame you if this job is too much for you, it's not your fault the princess gave you a task that is beyond your level of abilities...." "Cadance" "assured" Shining, as he glanced to the side in disbelief.

"But it's ok, you still have me to support you during these hard times, dear....." "Cadance" "assured", as "she" rested "her" head on Shining's shoulder, as his color started to fade into a more grey tone....

"Well, I best be going. I have to continue overseeing the preparations for the wedding... Do try to relax, won't you dear?" "Cadance" told Shining, as "she" left the bridge, leaving the captain to feel slightly weaker......

Later......

Discord walked into the kitchen.

"Hiya princess!" Applejack greeted as "she" walked in.

"Please, call me Princess Mi Amore Cadenza." Discord mocked Cadance's regal full name in a subtle way.

"Hiya Princess Mi Amore Cadenza! You've come to check out what's on the menu for your big day?" AJ asked "the princess".

'geez, can't a pony get a joke?' Discord thought to himself, as AJ hadn't realized that "she" was making fun of "herself".

"Why yes, I have." "Cadance" answered in a forced delighted tone. As he walked towards the food, he quickly glanced in Twilight's direction, making sure she was paying attention.

When he levitated the food with his horn, he made sure that the aura was blue like the real Cadance. He didn't want to make himself too suspicious in front of Twilight or any other ponies, as that could tip them off that he wasn't really Cadance.

"Mmm, delicious. You've really outdone yourself Applejack. I think I'll take a few to go." "Cadance" requested.

"Why it means so much coming from you princess! You enjoy the food, and try not to spoil yourself!" AJ told "Cadance", as "she" lifted the bag and walked out the room.

Discord figured he'd have a quick bite before heading to oversee the dresses. Of course, being an immortal deity of chaos he didn't really need to eat, but it was still delicious to eat none the less.

Later......

"'please, call me Princess Mi Amore Cadenza.'"

'Well at least somepony understood the joke.' Discord thought to himself, as he headed inside the dressing room.

"Ya rang?"

"Your highness! Let me just start by saying what an honor it is to play a role in such a momentous occasion."

"Yes yes yes of course, how are the dresses?"

"Well, I've been working on it ever since I was given the assignment, and I think you'll be pleased with the results."

Discord thought about what to say to criticize the dresses, what would a bride want more out of dresses like these?.....

"I was hoping for something with more beading and a longer train."

"Oh yes, of course."

"And those should be a different color."

"I think they're lovely!"

"Me too!"

"I love them!"

'Right on cue.' Discord thought to himself, as he coughed after the bridesmaids complimented the dresses, as if to tell them, "Please, let me handle this."

"Make them a different color, please." "Cadance" politely asked, as "she" left with the bridesmaids to inspect the reception.

Discord tried to at least act polite in front of the ponies, after all the last thing they'd expect from the princess of love is a bridezilla, that would have definitely tipped them off that he wasn't her.

Later....

"Ok. we've been over the games," Discord observed Pinkie Pie as she played around the reception.

"The dances," She exclaimed as she danced like a chicken.

"Oh! I think this reception is gonna be perfect! Don't you?"

"Absolutely! Never change Pinkie Pie."

"Thank you!"

'You were always my favorite Pink..... And I know you're there Twilight, I have something special planned just for you....'
