	Know your mare, know your mare, know your mare…

The young newly-wed princess adjusted her attire slightly with a glitter of her horn and awaited what would surely be a fair show.

Cadance…

…Isn’t a real princess…

“You know, I’ve been thinking about that. Aunt Celestia and Luna aren’t technically princess either, but they do share the throne so that sort of justifies it. But I’m not only merried but also an only child… So I really should change my title. Thank you for reminding me disembodied voice.”

Your… welcome?

Cadance…

…Is a Changeling…

“For all you know I could be. I wouldn’t blame you to think that. Even my husband mistook that tramp of a queen for me for about more then three days. So it would make sense that you would think I could be a Changeling. Once more I thank you for your cautious observance.”

No… problem?

Cadance…

…Is jealous of Twilight Sparkle…

“Oh, completely. Look at her mane, her magic, she’s fantastic! Shining was one lucky colt to grow up with her. I can only imagine what kind of looker she’ll be when she’s her brother’s age… probably a real head turner.”

Probably…

Wait… no… Gah…!

Cadance…

…Is older then she looks…

“And how old do I look?”

I don’t know… pretty young?

“Why thank you.”

…I’m out of here.

“Why? Aren’t you having fun?”

You’re too nice…

I can’t think of anything…

“Really? Huh… Well alright. I’ll come back later when you think of something. Does that work for you?”

That would be wonderful…

Thank you….

“No problem at all. See you later,” Cadance gave a simple wave before trotting off into the darkness.

…Did she just outsmart me?
