"But... You're a princess."

"Technically I'm an Empress and a Princess." I sighed, rubbing the side of my head. "The Crystal Empire and Equestria are different countries but I'm co-leader of both because of this whole political thing from a few thousand years ago and we can't just..." I gave the mare a look. "It's complicated, okay?"

"Well even more so, you have an image to uphold. You can't have this," She gestured to Flurry Heart, "happening in plain sight, or, if I had my way, at all for that matter."

I stared. "I can't naturally feed my daughter until the end of court, which lasts from six in the morning to eight at night." I said in monotone. "Miss, I don't think you understand the slightest thing about foals, do you?"

"I understand plenty to know that this is completely disgusting and appalling." She tilts her head up and scowls at the ceiling. "So I suggest you conceal your foal immediately."

I blinked. Was that a threat I heard just now? I then leaned forward, offering her an ear with a slight smirk. "Or what?"

She leaned in towards me, her scowl turning to a smirk of her own. "Or I'll tell everypony."

"Princess Mi Amore Cadenza is the best mom on Equus!" The paper colt said, waving the paper above his horn. "Breast feeding during court, read all about it!"

I grinned, leaning back on my new couch throne as Flurry Heart suckled away. "Wow, did you hear the news?" Shining Armor walked into the court and handed me paper. "You're like... A hero to mothers everywhere now."

I smiled. "I know dear, I know."
