Estarossa POV
We spent the rest of the flight mostly in silence until I turned on my ipod when there was about half an hour left and they were more than curious. I confessed to Luna about the song I mentioned and played it for them, but as it turned out Celestia actually did sing Lullaby for a Princess on the night of her banishment. I let them have their moment before I pressed random and got Here come the Ravens (Aviators), Two out of three (Meat loaf), Come Monday (Jimmy Buffet), and a few others before we landed. I forgot to ask them if they accounted for my Commandment taking effect in the city of people who hate eachother, people who WILL hate Luna, bigots, xenophobes, hypocrites, and in general people who will be affected by it. I'm sure I'll get a good laugh though, I can see it now: an assassin who can't pick up his knife or guards who try to arrest me under a noble's or Blueblood's orders only to drop their weapons and be scolded by the princesses, or Celestia specifically. I don't think they'll obey Luna and some might even take hostile actions against her, I'll use Full Counter if they can attack, I wonder if I can get the 7 Rebellion blades to do what Losvayne enabled Meliodas to do to that Albion.
"So how should we go about this? I doubt mine or Luna's receptions will go well." I asked Celestia who got out and announced us, the guards looked confused as to why she introduced me as the Commandment of Love, but would receive a very subtle hint as to why. I got out after Luna and just stood there for a second waiting for something to happen.
"Are you coming Estarossa?" Luna asked
"Lead the way." apparently day court was supposed to be in session and we made our way to the throne room with the occasional guard dropping his spear. Aside from that we didn't really have any trouble with anyone until we reached the doors to He- I mean the room none of us want to be in. I'm not even going to ask why she's bringing Luna to day court before getting her situated or when she hasn't reintroduced her to Equestria.
"Day court is now in session!" Celestia said with I think I heard pride, though I doubt that's what it was. The doors opened revealing Blueblood as the first of many, son of an emerald whore!
"Aunty, has aunt Luna re-"he took notice of Luna then myself "Good day, I don't think we've met before." he turned back to Luna "You are princess Luna yes? It's a pleasure to finally meet you! Aunt Celestia used to tell me about you all the time when I was a colt. Let me be among the first to say welcome home." he finished before trying to hug her, but she backed up enough for him to get the hint "My apologies, I should have known better than to try such a thing so soon." he turned back to me with a look of curiosity "As for you, I'm curious as to who and what you are."
"That's a long story so I'll just save it for later, I am named Estarossa, I accidentally became involved in Luna's return." I said trying to be as polite as possible to someone I'm not sure how to deal with, he's not being affected by the Commandment so he has to be somewhat trustworthy "I don't think you've told either of us who you are other than saying you're royalty." he realized I was right before apologizing
"My apologies again, you're right. *ahem* I am prince Blueblood, nephew to princess Celestia and newly returned princess Luna." holy shit either he's not a prick or he's a REALLY good actor "And please, just call me Blueblood, I feel you've earned it after your service to my family and Equestria." and just like that he's not a prick
"Blueblood, while I'm happy to see you and see how welcoming you are to Luna, we have other matters to attend to. We can all meet up later, I believe Cadence will be back soon from her trip to Zebrica so you'll have somepony to keep you company until then." Celestia spoke with a loving motherly tone
"I look forward to it, hopefully day court won't be too much trouble." he said on his way out, I turned to the princesses
"Remember what I said about wanting something bad to happen if he was a prick? He's not a prick."
"I thought you would want to see for yourself." Celestia said with a grin before turning back to the doors "Send in the next one." I saw 2 ponies who often get arrested or utterly humiliated: Jet Set and Upper Crust. Celestia did not look like she wanted them anywhere near the castle
"Thank you for seeing us your majesty, we have a request of the utmost importance and must be *huff* dealt with *huff* immediately." Jet said while he and Upper were being affected by the Commandment and were now barely able to stand, amusing Celestia just enough for me to notice.
"What is it you need my little ponies?" she asked
"*huff* The orphanage across the street to our home must be demolished! *huff* We can hardly get any peace with all the racket those brats keep making. We would also *huff* be able to build our private pool in it's place." and just like that I want to kill him, and his bitch of a wife
"I apologize but-" Celestia started before I tapped her shoulder to get her attention
"May I?" I asked, to which she nodded in approval "Apologies, but such a thing is out of the question." they looked at me like I just slapped them
"And who are you to *huff* make such a decision in her majesty's place?" Upper asked
"I am the Commandment of Love: Estarossa, second in line to the Osmium Throne of Brittania and third strongest of my race (what? I can't tell them I'm an archangel/ demon prince hybrid, I will spout as much bullshit as I need to), you would have never heard of it as I am not from this world." they looked at me knowing they fucked up
"And why would *huff* such a thing be out of the question?" Jet asked
"It would create more problems than anything. You do realize they would be losing their only home, source of food, education, and health care right? If the orphanage goes then they will be living on the streets. They are too young for work so they will be forced to scavenge and if they are truly desperate, steal. We can all agree that foals don't have as much control over their emotions and don't have as much of an understanding of morality. What do you think they might do if they find out they lost what little they had because a noble didn't like them, that said noble wanted to have a pool dug out in place of their home? Those foals will have been forced into becoming criminals because of you, had mentalities drilled into their very young and impressionable minds similar to 'only the strong survive', 'it is yours by right if you can take it', or 'they took everything from us so it's only fair we do the same' by the very same ponies that detest such thimgs and would naturally swear vengeance against you and princess Celestia. 'You reap what you sow' as they say, and legally speaking they wouldn't get in much trouble at all until they are old enough to be tried as adults assuming they can even be held that long. The ones who wouldn't focus on survival would make your lives and other nobles absolute Tartarus if not kill you, and you would have no one to blame but yourself." I tried reasoning with them, but apparently they are very stupid or have selective hearing
"How dare you threaten us like *huff* that you beast! I will-" Upper started
"First off, I did not threaten you, only tell you what I would expect the victims of your greed and ignorance to do should your request be fulfilled, and you will what? Have you already forgotten who I am? It's bad enough you would insult a prince, but you would dare threaten him in the presence of both your princesses? I would choose my next words very carefully if I were you." they backed off a little before Jet spoke up again
"Both princesses? I only see *huff* her majesty and-" he finally took notice of Luna and immediately scowled as if he already knew who she was "What is SHE doing here? How can you let that *huff* monster Nigh-mmmmhmmnhhhhm" I dashed towards him and covered his mouth with my hand and lifted him up to eye level before turning to Celestia
"Would you have a problem if I drop kicked them off the highest balcony in the castle?" I asked, Upper backed up fearing the worst
"I would prefer you don't. Drop him and the guards will escort them out of the castle." she said with a noticeable amount of contempt, and as if on cue 3 guards moved towards them after I dropped the little shit. He threatened me again, but I ignored him and moved next to the throne again. After he and his wife I heard a sniffle to my left and saw Luna crying, I wiped away the tears and spoke to her
"Just ignore them, you're not the Nightmare anymore and you know that. C'mon, a lady should only ever be crying tears of joy." Celestia watched to see how I would handle this as did the remaining guards "Besides, you remember when i met you as Nightmare I'm sure. Yes, you and Nightmare made a mistake, but there are 2 things I can tell you that prove neither of you were very bad." she looked up into my eyes "Nightmare cried Luna. The so called Queen of the Night cried into the chest of her enemy when he did nothing but talk about how much Celestia missed you, how much she loved you. That black fur was slowly changing to a dark blue, the elements might not have been necessary at all. That's all the proof you need Luna. Fuck anyone who chooses to ignore you, or hurt you over stupid shit!" she giggled at that last part "Both figuratively, and quite literally if you're into that kind of thing." she's laughing now and everyone smiled at the sight before Luna finally said something
"Thank you, I needed to hear that." she turned to Celestia "I think I shall be in my room until supper."
"Alright, one of the guards will escort you." she said before turning to me "Thank you for that, would you mind going with her? I feel she would be more comfortable with you around."
"You don't even need to ask." I said following Luna before Celestia spoke again
"Estarossa." I turned back to her "Please keep her safe."
"Gladly." I turned back to follow Luna
