Silverware is typically only used by unicorns. By the time any other pony managed to manipulate it properly with their hooves they likely would have made a mess of their food, and if they used it with their mouths they couldn't very well eat the food on the utensil.

Applejack and Fluttershy are going out on a date to celebrate the anniversary of them being a couple. This surprises Twilight Sparkle greatly. Not because she can't believe it's already been a year since such a clearly important event in the life of two of her best friends, but by the fact that she didn't even know they were dating to begin with. How could she have missed that? Surely her other friends will have the answer, right?

Princess Twilight and Rarity are dating.

The other Rarity in Twilight's life isn't quite sure how she feels about any of this.

Twilight agrees.

Also, because this idea I had was just ridiculously amazing to me. Also also, don't take this story as anything I would purposefully write, I literally had to push these words out of the recesses of my mind. Cheers!

What do you do with a book of dark magic? If you're Twilight Sparkle, you put it in your library. Because that's where books go.
