The next day, Princess Maudine is up with the sun as is Princess Pinkie. As they are the first two up, the sisters decide to go on a walk. As they walk through the gardens, they laugh, joke, and just talk. Pinkie is glad to have this time alone with her sister. After all, they haven't had a walk together like this in a long time.
"Sister," asks Maudine, "are you happy?"
"Yes! Of course! Why wouldn't I be?" replies Pinkie.
"Oh, okay, I guess I just wanted to hear it from you, I'm glad you're happy," replies Maudine.
The two finish up their walk an hour later at the fountain then return inside where they are greeted by King Cheese Sandwich. Pinkie smiles as she embraces him in a hug and gives him a kiss. Princess Maudine walks off. She just wants her sister to have this time alone to talk with Cheese. After all, this isn't something that they need her input on, so she can go off and relax.
In her writing room, Princess Maudine sits down and writes some poetry alongside her trusty friend, the pebble, Boulder. As she writes, she talks to the little rock beside her. She loves writing poetry, especially poetry inspired by her rocks.
Meanwhile, in the main hall, Princess Pinkie and King Cheese are happily just talking and hanging out and handing out welfare bags to their citizens. As they do this, they can't help but smile. Helping ponies is their passion and now it's a passion that they share and they'd honestly have it no other way.
After an hour, the last bag is finally handed out and the two go off to the meditation room for some much needed peace and quiet. In the room, the two can't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Ruling a joined kingdom is hard, but at least, it's better than ruling two kingdoms that are crumbling below their very hooves.
