"They're bowing again."
"Mwuguuh?" Rainbow Dash blinked open an eye from the castle's library's couch. "Wa' is it Twi?"
"I thought that we were past everypony deferring to me all the time, but in the market today, half the stalls wouldn't even let me pay." Twilight was beginning to pace.
Rainbow looked at her marefriend and judged that this was not a problem that would go away if she tried to go back to sleep. She sat up, hoping to head off the full freak-out. "So what's the problem Twi?" the Daring Do she had been reading slid of her chest, only to be caught by a wing and placed next to her.
Twilight turned to her. "It's this stupid title! The castle seems to have reminded everypony that I'm a Princess, and they're back to treating me differently." she stamped a hoof. "It's Highness this and Highness that and I can do no wrong. I made an obvious mistake talking to Lyra today and she didn't even point it out. Everyone knows that Beethooven's 3rd String Quartet was in D major, not C major!"
"So you're upset that now that you're royalty, everyone treats you like royalty?" Dash yawned.
"Well, when you put it like that I guess I should have expected this. I wish they would at least use my name; I don't like being called 'Your Highness' all the time." Twilight switched to a silly voice to show her dislike of the title. "It makes it feel like they only see the crown instead of me."
Dash nodded "That does sound annoying Twi, don't know what to tell you." she put a hoof to her chin for a few seconds before an idea came to her. She quickly swooped over to Twilight's writing desk and grabbed a quill. She quickly scribbled something down and darted over to show Twilight.
Twilight looked down at the paper and read:
By Royal Decree of Princess Twilight Sparkle:
I hereby state my intent to change my formal title.
If my subjects wish to address me by a formal title, they may call me "Your Royal Twi-ness"
"See, this way they will still use your name as part of your title!" Rainbow looked very proud of herself. "What do you think Twi, am I good, or am I good."
"pffft"
"What was that Twi?" Rainbow had missed her friend's response while boasting.
"HAHAHAHAHA" Twilight collapsed laughing.
"So is that a no then?"
Twilight managed to stand long enough to draw Rainbow into a hug "Thanks, I needed that." she said through chuckles.
"Anytime, Your Royal Twi-" Rainbow started to respond before Twilight silenced her with a glare and a kiss.
"What am I going to do with you?"
