It was on my third day as Prince Blueblood that a letter arrived.
"Dear Prince Blueblood, You are formally invited to attend the special art exhibit hosted by Lady Fleur De Lis this Saturday at the Canterlot Museum of Art and Literature," I read the letter aloud before placing it gently on the desk in my room.
I knew that the Prince usually visited such events of high society, but I thought I would have a few more days to get used to this new persona I must inhabit.
"Saturday, how far away is that?" Looking at the Prince's memories, it should be two days from now.
I really should get a calendar, seeing as I don't have a phone to remind me of the date.
"Very well, In two days' time, I shall visit this art exhibit, hopefully, it won't be a waste of time,"

Princess Luna was smiling from ear to ear, her pearl white teeth grinning out to the world as she flew laps around Canterlot Castle.
"Ahaha, We are flying! look at us Sister, we are soaring the sky just as we used to!" She shouted down to her sister, who was sitting under a parasol, watching the events unfold.
"Yes Luna, I am happy to see you back to your usual self, I missed days like these," Celestia said, using magic to enhance the reach of her voice so her sister could hear her all the way up near the roof of one of the castle spires.
As Celestia watched her sister fly through the air in her newly restored body, she thought of the pony that made it all happen. Her adopted nephew, Blueblood.

Closing the book of "Equestrian Nobility Laws," I took a deep breath and sighed.
I have been reading it for several hours and I'm barely halfway through. How do law students back on Earth do this?
Sure, my old job back on earth required similar reading material to study for, but It wasn't as boring as this.
"I'll just continue this tomorrow," I said and closed the book, a small slip of paper acting as a bookmark, and placed a small note next to the book saying "Do not touch, Blueblood is reading,".
"Now I can come back here tomorrow," And with that, I stood up and exited the library, ignoring the annoying guard stations outside, and headed towards the kitchens to grab something to eat.
------------------------------------------------
Luna was awestruck as she looked at the list one of the maids gave her detailing all the different kinds of food the staff were readily available to make for her.
"So many options," She whispered to herself, before looking up as the sound of hurried hooves and the clattering of pots was heard in the nearby kitchen
"Hurry up! We need this mayo to be made of Quail eggs Yesterday!" She heard somepony yell in the kitchen.
Walking into the kitchen, she spotted a group of cooks and a chef working on slicing up vegetables and moving around large boxes filled with rows upon rows of small eggs.
"Ah, Princess Luna!" One of the cooks exclaimed when he spotted her standing in the doorway, which quickly had the pony who must have been the head chef quickly turn to look at her.
"Your Majesty! We apologize for the disturbance our sounds caused you, but we are in a hurry as you can see. Do you need anything to eat? We will make it for you as quickly as possible," He told her, bowing his head in a show of respect for her authority.
"Raise your head, There is no need to apologize for doing thou jobs, we were simply curious as to the source of the commotion,"
The chef visibly relaxed as he raised his head, "Still, as a chef, I must apologize, Prince Blueblood just came by and asked for a bowl of salad, mainly coleslaw with a few extra vegetables, which normally wouldn't be a difficult task, in fact doing so will be far easier and quicker than the Prince's usual demands," The chef explained to Luna, who nodded in understanding.
"But then he said that the mayonnaise for the salad shall be made using Quail eggs!" The Chef turned and pointed at the boxes of Quail eggs that the cooks were carrying around.
"So now we had to buy quail eggs, and we need to quickly turn them into mayonnaise, even with magic to speed things up, it would take us an hour to do so without ruining the taste of the eggs. So we decided to quickly work on an appetizer for the prince to eat while his salad is getting ready," He said, and Luna once more nodded in understanding.
Even one-thousand years ago, nobles would ask for the top of the culinary world, so much so that many times the castle chefs wouldn't even be able to provide their demands.
It is wonderful to see, that in this new day and age, the acquisition of ingredients is so quick that the demand for a quail egg mayonnaise could be completed within an hour.
"We understand, While we are here we would like to also ask for the same food Blueblood wanted, we would like to taste this unique choice of food he picked ourselves." Luna smiled and told the chef before turning her back to the kitchen and went to search for Blueblood.
"A Mayonnaise made of quail eggs, how delightful," She whispered to herself with a smile.
----------------------------------------
Sitting on her throne during her Day court, Celestia suddenly had the urge to try something new for lunch.
"Maybe Quail egg mayo?" She whispered, catching the attention of one of the ministers in the room.
"Did you say something, your Highness?" They asked the princess, who turned to them with a sheepish smile.
"Nothing important, just thinking about what I would like for lunch," She told the minister before turning to look at the rest of her court, "Would any of you care to join me? We can make an hour-long break to get something to eat before we return," She asked them, receiving different answers in response, it was decided that an hour-long break shall take place for the court to eat some food before returning.
----------------------------------------
Back in the kitchens, with a terrifying shiver going down his spine, the chef had the sudden urge to procure more Quail eggs.
