Voice testing, what am I doing?

[guardsthenight]

[In her best, booming, Canterlot voice.]

We are most displeased with this current situation.  What is the purpose of bringing us here if thou hast no plans for a home?  Or friendship?  Or fun? 

[And her voice drops down to the normal levels that she has been learning to use.]

Please reconsider.  We would like more opportunities to earn the love of our subjects.  We -- 

I still need more practice after one thousand years away.

[Quick identification spell cast go!

...Okay, not a changeling, so she bows down respectfully.]

Trixie greets you, Princess Luna.

[guardsthenight]

We greet you, Trixie. Are you one of the ponies captured in a bizarre place?

[cape_and_wizard_hat]

Trixie most definitely is, but she's found a "home" as you put it.

[Here's where she gets theatrical.]

'Tis a place where nopony usually goes. It's a ship that travels not in water, but from planet to planet your domain of space! Trixie's audience is practically infinite! There's hairless apes that can use magic and even Princess Celestia resides there! The name of the game I'm describing is Mostly Harmless!

[She does a dramatic pose and fireworks shoot up from behind her and explode in many pretty colors.]

[guardsthenight]

[The fireworks just aren't that impressive. Honestly, with her big sister, she's hard to impress.]

Hairless apes? It sounds most unpleasant. Dost thou's audience enjoy the performances?

[Mumbling to herself.]

But I cannot imagine a place that could hold my sister for long.

[cape_and_wizard_hat]

Trixie's awe-inspiring performances leave everypony begging for more.

Trixie was told that Princess Celestia was granted a temporary reprieve from her duties. Plus, she was even impressed at The Great and Powerful Trixie's ability to tell the best stories in all of Equestria.

[guardsthenight]

How can one take a temporary reprieve from raising the sun each morning? It is not as though anypony could take on our sister's duties.

You tell the best stories in all of Equestria?

[sovereign_succubus]

Strange as it sounds, I'm on your side for this. The sooner somepony loves you, the better.

[guardsthenight]

Thou's wishes have no bearing on our decisions, changeling.

[sovereign_succubus]

Temper temper, fair princess. Isn't that what got you locked away in the first place?

[guardsthenight]

Thou should not talk about history when thou knows nothing about it.

[sovereign_succubus]

You want to lecture me? That's rich. You didn't even know my children and I existed until the wedding.

[bladedcontrast]

[Visas is seated cross-legged seemingly unaware of the talking pony. She appears human except for a small detail: no eyes.]

Mundanes have no rhyme or reason to their methods, unfortunately.

[guardsthenight]

[. . . Trixie wasn't kidding about the hairless apes. Huh.]

We have noticed. If we may ask, art thou one of the hairless apes that have been mentioned?

[insidethechimney]

What is the point in anything if there's no friends and fun? That's so boring that I can't think of anything boring enough to compare it to!

[guardsthenight]

Yes, we would like to experience both. This place is not our first choice. If we may not be in Equestria, then we should be somewhere with our subjects.

[insidethechimney]

Or you could sign up new ones! I'm sure everypony would love a princess as fun as you.

[guardsthenight]

New subjects? Those outside of Equestria?

[insidethechimney]

Why not? There's lots and lots and lots of them about! More than you can shake a spooky stick at!

[shine_on_armor]

You sound fine to me, Princess. [He bows.]

[guardsthenight]

Than you, Captain. We are pleased to see a familiar face in this place.

[Time to try the friendly thing, since she actually knows this pony.]

Have you been well? Have you been able to keep up your duties?

[shine_on_armor]

Well, technically, Cadence and I are on our honeymoon. We're going to head up to Manehattan tomorrow morning.

[guardsthenight]

Then you are still at home. I am relieved to hear this. I hope that you are enjoying your honeymoon.

[shine_on_armor]

We are, don't worry. Cadence and I couldn't be happier. It's been wonderful so far.

[thesunislaw]

I'm sure you will get it in time.

[guardsthenight]

I will try until I do.
