@@Taialin,

"Yes sister. I did request your presence," Luna would say, donning her cloak. "It is just that you have attended many galas of late, where as I...I has been many years since I have last attended one. Even before my time away, I had boycotted the last few due to how our subjects received me back then...I wish for your assistance in greeting those whom attend. There is not much that frightens me dear sister,  however I am worried of the impression I will make if left alone..." The younger alicron would give her sister the puppy dog pout that she would use when they where both still foals. "Please Tia?"

 

Giving Celestia an innocent smile, she would flick back the hood of her cloak to reveal how her mane was done up for the evening. "On the bright side, your royal seamstress is has quite the flare. She is even an excellent mane dresser." With the glow of her horn, Luna would unhook her cloak and set it aside revealing her gown. "What do you think sister? I hope that this outfit is adequate for this evening."  She would look at the clock behind her as she heard a chime. "I can not wait to see what your seamstress has planned for you. I informed her that you where in need of an outfit as well. Please hurry back down here though. Your presence eases my nerves for such a tense time."

Celestia breathed a silent sigh of relief as nopony appeared to be too put off by her unorthodox entrance, least of all her sister. But with the retreat from the strange came the advance of the serious, and her sister indeed had some serious things to discuss with her.

In a lot of ways, the fact that one of them was younger was merely a semantic fact but not a practical one. Over the scale of thousands of years, a difference of a few scant years—or even a few scant centuries—was nothing if not petals in the wind. It was more the thousand year exile that her sister experienced and what she missed in the meantime that meant one of them was more inexperienced than the other. And that cute look her sister gave her certainly factored in as well, as it seemed to turn on some protective instinct in her.

"You underestimate your own power and poise, I think, dear sister," Celestia began. "The impressions you've made in recent times in your dream wanderings speak for themselves. They love you, and it is that part of you that you may show for those at the party to love you as well." She sidled closer to her sister. "I have full confidence that what you have learned in our modern times and your personality will win over our subjects if you simply be yourself.

"All I would recommend is to keep your temper in check." Celestia hesitated to mention this fact, but her sister did ask for her help. "There are certain . . . expectations that are expected of us princesses. And that does include keeping our composure in trying circumstances."

But then Luna revealed her evening garb. She smiled. "You are quite lovely, I think. Perhaps you will need to fend off potential suitors before I am able to join you?" Celestia jested. "Go, sister. I will be with you soon, and I trust you to be the magnanimous Princess of the Night you've always been able to be." And she gave her dear sister of many millennia a little squeeze.

"Ah wouldn't put it past 'im, either!" Applejack responded to the purple Alicorn as the group headed for the fashionista's salon.

 

"I still think you're all not even giving him a chance... I'm sorry, but that's how I feel."

 

"Actually, I'm kinda with Fluttershy on this one..."

 

"WHAT!?"

 

It didn't surprise Applejack in up the least that Fluttershy was sticking up for Discord, but to hear Pinkie siding with as well? That sure was! It was even more of a surprise when even Fluttershy admitted that Discord could be trouble; it faded some as the timid Pegasus reamined resolved in seeing the good in the Draconequus. "... but being a friend means you have to look PAST their mistakes, and care about the one behind them. He certainly isn't doing anything EVIL, is he?"

 

"No he hasn't - yet!" Applejack said. "But Ah still think we should keep a close eye on the girl, and Ah think Ah have an idea ta do just that, as well as get ta know 'er better, startin' with the party tonight."

 

It was then Rarity chimed in, audibly less than enthused "It would be quite rude of me to simply abstain from attending this party, would it not?"

 

"A' course it would, Rarity! You're the only one who knows most a the names of the high falutin' ponies in Canterlot! And 'sides, Ah don't think Colette meant any harm with that lil' dance a' hers. Now, let's get over to the Canterlot Carousel and get all purdyed up!"

 

Applejack leaned in close to Rarity, a thoughtful frown. "At least try ta get along with Colette tonight. We all gotta set an example fer the other humans watchin'."
