Four Seasons, Four Princesses

by Boldish42

Dear subjects

Greetings citizens of Equestria! Princess Twilight Sparkle here! It has recently come to my attention that an unofficial transcript of a recent Council of Equestrian Princesses has gotten into circulation. I would just like to assure the public that we princesses take our duties very seriously, however, and I'm sure you will be surprised, as was I, that 'that' was apparently the very first Council held ever. I was shocked really, but I suppose it does make sense as Princess Celestia was the only princess for a nearly a millenium, and therefore had no princesses to council with. However, we have discussed it at length and we have decided that we must not let this opportunity pass us.

What opportunity you may ask? Well as your Princesses we feel it is imperative to address your issues and we ask that you send your ideas, questions, problems, and concerns. Now normally the Solar, Lunar, and Crystal courts would address these issues in person one at a time, however this council has its advantages.

Advantage 1: All topics may be issued in anonymity. Frankly I don't see the advantage, but I'm told it's there!

Advantage 2: The collective reasoning and thoughts of all four princesses will be brought to bear on your issue! We will all contribute something to it! For even the smallest bit of insight can lead to great things.

Advantage 3: The chance to see your government in action on the issues important toyou! All transcripts will be made available to the public! Minus some editing to keep state secrets of course.

Advantage 4: The convenience of writing a letter instead of having to make the journey to The Courts!

Remember, your government can't improve without input from you: The Everypony. So everypony old or young write to us so that together we can make Equestria and The World a better place!

Also, anypony with information regarding the origins of the 'bootleg' First Council transcription, please inform the Royal Guard as soon as possible. Rewards available for credible information.

Your Princess Twilight Sparkle

Ha! See that! She signed it twice! Anyway, if you're seeing this it means my charm worked, and the princess will probably never see it! Secret Scribe Boldish here! No that's not my real name. Why Boldish? Well I'm kind of annoying a certain princess for fun, but I'm trying not to get caught either, so I figure I'll just be a bit boldish. Anyway this idea she's got here, I think it's great! send your comments and whatnot and I'll make sure you get to see what really happens up here. personally I think it gets pretty funny, not that you'd be able to tell from an 'official' transcript. Hope to hear from you soon soon! SSB

Author's Note:

OK so here it is. If you can't tell, I'm looking for ideas. I wrote 4s4p as a one shot to try gdocs, practice a bit and get the idea out of my head. It also seems to have gotten better reactions than I expected. But I had no real ideas for it to continue, which is a shame as I do like the idea of the Council and the silliness they can get up to. So i'm asking you, please help me out here, I could use the practice and I would love to entertain you all if I can. POST TO THE COMMENTS at least until I figure a better way to do this. If an idea sparks something, or a bunch of you want to see something, I'll give it my best shot.

So until later, I hope to entertain you soon and Take Care

Some pony's in Equestria claim that two mares can have a foal together. If this is true, does the council have any plans to discourage or encourage this happening; as well as any ways to keep stallions from becoming irrelevant?

SSB?

Gee. Wonder who that could possibly be.

How about an embarrassing tape of one or more of the princesses gets out to the public and they must figure out how to deal with it? Even better if we don't find out whats on the tape until the very end.

A cult forms around Twilight, the newest Princess, and she must seek help in deciding what to do about it.

Pip and other foals have an argument about who is the best princess and go to the council for a judgement.

Spike has done something bad and must explain his actions to the Council

The princesses need new regalia and attempt to one up each other through more and more outlandish garments. What trends in fashion might they start?

Discord comes to the Council with a problem. He's having trouble with his very first friend Fluttershy, and needs some relationship advice.

Rainbow Dash is causing thousands of bits in property damage, how can she be stopped?

[AnonponyDASHIE]

The CMC want to get their cutie marks in being princesses and so they sneak into a council meeting.

Twilight tries to get her own celestial body to control because she wants that awesome hair.

Cadance is having problems with Shining Armor, what things that Twilight never wanted to know will she be subjected to?

Prank Wars.

Let me know if I'm being helpful or if you just want me to stop here.

Dear Council
Princess Celestia and Princess Luna did you ever thought of taking a vacation and dumping all work on Princess Twilight taking a well earned break from work and giving Princess Twilight valuable experience in ruling Equestria?
Just think out it you could travel to a nice location while Princess Twilight is alone and overburdened with work has all the room she needs to do your job gather valuable experience or you could stay and taunt Princess Twilight give her helpful advice and of course still attend to the Council.

ps:please excuse all of the lined out parts but every time I tried to rewrite it it still came out like this

[ColdGoldLazarus]

Dear Council

As an issue of Public Relations, do you sometimes feel that Princess Cadence has sometimes been overlooked? If so, do you have any plans to fix it, or do you prefer it this way?

Also, how's the foreign policy going?

Dear Council,

Are there any plans to make peace with the Changeling Hive? Will these council meetings ever possibly involve Queen Chrysalis as a fifth participant? Sincerely, Shadowstep.

2999093 First off, I'm glad you enjoyed this so much! Comedy is the style where I really have no confidence in my abilities, so I'm glad I got a laugh. Second, you got a lot of ideas there, if you got more send them, the shotgun effect of a lot of little ideas is exactly what I'm looking for, and there are some that you've suggested that I can really see myself using.

But prank wars? Come on... that was going to happen no matter what.

You should certainly have more confidence in your abilities. You had me laughing so hard during the story that my housemate came to check on me.

As for the Prank Wars, I think you may have misunderstood me. There's a reason it's capitalized. I'm not talking about pranks that can easily be played upon one another. I'm talking epic pranks that involve concerted efforts from hundreds of people and affect the GDPs of small nations. Things that the common folk just couldn't pull off.

Dear Council,

I am seeking a donation to help in my work on technology, mainly engines and motors. I'm also going to need some explosives, as I'm running low and they keep me out of depression, and I can hardly do anything when I'm depressed (details available upon inquiry). If you would like to speak with me in person, Fridays are the best bet for minimizing possible collateral damage.

Sincerely, Technia.
