Standing next to her, Twilight beamed, a totally adorable and naive smile gracing her features. "Do you like it?" "My piano!" Rarity wailed, unable to contain herself anymore. "My poor, poor piano. Whatever did it do to deserve this fate?" "Oh, right." Twilight's smile turned sheepish. "Sorry about that. I'll make sure to get you a new one. It's just, I was so excited to install an Organ to the Outside in my own castle that I got a little carried away." Rarity inspected the closest pipe with a critical eye, finding the copper construct to be horribly clashing with the elegant mahogany of her beloved instrument. "And why exactly do you need to build such a contraption?" "Well, I'm supposed to be giving a bunch of nobles a tour of the castle tomorrow." A spark of anger flashed in her eyes. "The same ones that panned your debut at the Canterlot Fashion Week last month." Rarity shivered as something cold chilled her marefriend's tone. "And I was thinking that they might enjoy an education as to how Equestrian Royalty used to deal with insults to The Crown." Stepping forward, Rarity wrapped her hooves around Twilight in a tight embrace. "Have I mentioned how much I love you lately?" Twilight smirked as she pressed a kiss to Rarity's lips, sending a whole different kind of shiver down her spine. "I could stand to hear it a bit more often." Rarity's eyes burned with passion as her breathing became ragged. "You'll be hearing it much more tonight, Your Highness. And I think it's time I gave you a very different kind of education in the bedroom."
