After months of their relationship developing and the Grand Galloping Gala approaching, everything seems perfect for Fluttershy's first public date with her marefriend.

Something which is more difficult than it should be when she is dating the Queen of the Changelings.

Luckily, Fluttershy has a plan to make sure it goes off without a hitch.
