	“Celestia, are you serious?!” Luna asked upon seeing her sister dressed as her. “Couldn’t you have done somepony else? Why me?”
“Because I love you. Besides, you said we should be a set. If you’re gonna be me, I’m gonna be you,” Celestia said, smirking.
“Really. You’re really gonna use that excuse? I can’t believe you!”
Celestia raised an eyebrow, but still smiled. “Well, then I guess I’ll just dress as Discord instead, I mean, he and I are a c-”
“Nononono! You’re fine don’t go change you can be me just don’t be Discord,” Luna said as her eyes widened.
“Oh alright, if you insist. I guess I could stay you. On one condition.”
“Name it.”
“Discord comes with us tonight,” Celestia said with certainty.
“No deal.”
“Then I’ll just go cha-”
“FINE! He can come with us. I suppose it can’t hurt to have one more to our group of four…”
“It’s the rhyme that saves time. Oh look! I just rhymed myself! I’m a ‘poet that didn’t know it’ as some would say,” a recognizable voice said from behind Luna, causing her to jump.
“FAUST ABOVE! Discord, don’t do that!”
“Aaaww is little Lulu upset that I dressed as her love?” Discord teased.
“What do you m- Oh Faust...”
Discord was dressed as none other than Twilight Sparkle, causing Luna to blush furiously. “I take it back, he can’t come. You can go change now.”
“Nope! Too late, he’s coming with us. Come on, we need to go meet Shining and Cadance at the train station.”



“Shining, come on! If they aren’t here yet, then something might be holding them up,” Cadance said to her husband. They had been waiting for about half an hour for her aunts, and they still had yet to show up.
“What if they’re on their way and we aren’t here?”
“We would’ve seen them by now if the-”
Celestia, Luna, and Discord popped into existence beside them.
“That is the last time I let Discord take me anywhere. I don’t know how you stand it, Celestia, but that is some disorienting sh-”
        “Ah ah ah~ Luna, you wouldn’t want to ruin our rating, would you?” Discord said, cutting off what Luna was going to say.
“What rating? We’re already a T.”
“Luna, Discord, stop breaking walls, or she’s gonna start over,” Celestia whispered, refusing to look anywhere besides the two.
Cadance cleared her throat. “I do believe we’re all here now, yes?” she said casually. “I assume one of you invited Discord as well. So, let’s get our annual Nightmare Night get together started.”



Luna grumbled as Cadance and Shining Armor boarded the train headed back to the Crystal Empire and, by extension, Flurry. According to Cadance, they had left little Flurry with her crystaller, a stallion named Sunburst.
She turned away and stared at Discord. “We are never speaking of what happened tonight again, understand?”
“Aaaww, was I that bad of a kisser?” he teased. “I mean, I’m sure Celestia is jealous of you because you got to kiss me, but I don’t see her threatening me to keep quiet.”
Luna rolled her eyes. “That would be because she isn’t here to threaten you.”
“And how exactly are you threatening me again?”
“Oh, you know, the usual. Yelling at you, trying to kill you, maybe a trip back to your prison of stone.”
“Fine. I won’t bring it up for three years, and if I still remember, I get to talk about it. Especially if you’re freshly married to a specific purple smart,” Discord said, grinning. “Or if you’re married at all.”
Luna paled, but nodded. “Fine fine, you can tell Twilight at the end of three years. But not before.”
