Starswirl's Journal

by AlesFlamas

Entry #43 July 16, 2190

The festival is over, all non-resident dwellers of Gilded Lily have gone home, and now I've been made head of the sanitation committee. That means I get to help clean a mess I took no part in the creation of. Joy.

The king was rather proud of my poem, and as a symbol of his appreciation for the smiles I bring to the faces of the members of the royal court gifted me with a rather charming outfit. And by charming , I mean gaudy, cumbersome, and altogether painful to look at. It consists of a hat reminiscent of something a forest witch would wear, only far more hideous, and a cloak, which is no better. It's a rather pleasant shade of dark blue, but is decorated quite garishly with stars and bells, so that every movement I make arrives about ten minutes ahead of me, as if I were a cow to be kept track of. The cloak lacks the bells, but is still just as painful to behold. I hate it, but it is a gift from the king, and so I cannot refuse it.

It's so ugly. . .

I really really hope Twilight Sparkle never puts her hoof on her idol journal, sometimes ignorance is bliss
I've to admit Twilight looked a little bit ridiculous with Starswirl's costume

4110828 Didn't she make a huge deal about it's historical accuracy or something like that when she wore it? That'd just make it way funnier.
