Social Classes Luna, social classes. Only those raised by a silver spoon actually enjoy that crap.
An armor shod hoof turns another page in the journal
Eventually, the fallout from my initiation as an honorary Sarosian blew over, in time for another scandal.
It was time in the year for that most aggravating of court events, the Grand Galloping Gala. Every Solar Guard in the Castle was preening and polishing their full regimentals, while the Night Guard performed our usual patrols, and our normal guard duties, and tried to pretend that it was another day ending in Y.
It was working too, for the most part, until the night before the Gala, I was stopped during a patrol by a Solar Captain.
"First Lieutenant Harmony Muse, We're Short Staffed for Night Guards for the Main Gala Ballroom, I'm tapping your squad." Came the instruction from Captain Gleaming Shield
""Night Guard don't work the Gala, Ma'am, I can't follow that order." I said.
"Are you refusing a direct order from a superior officer, Lieutenant!?" She said, advancing on me.
"No, ma'am. Firstly, As a Night Guard, you are not in my Chain of Command and any orders given are followed from courtesy. Secondly, One of the earliest orders ever given to the Night Guard by Princess Luna herself was that we were banned from attending the Grand Galloping Gala. The exact wording goes "I do not want my ponies heads filled with Nobility Nonsense when there is more important things to be focusing on."
I went so far as to reach into my armor and pull out a copy of the Night Guard Code and open it, to the first Page. I kept the smirk off my face as Captain Shield's frown just deepened. "Besides, Ma'am. Who do you think will be patrolling the castle while the Solar Guard are enjoying themselves?"

Apparently gala was even worse milenia before Mane Six time , it's just hard to notice diffrence between Agonising Boredom stage 9 and stage 12
... mostly because your brain tends to commit sudoku ... right after a seppuku at stage 3
Oh well there will be time to mess it up later , and lets hope some toxic laxatives are involved
Not as good as exploding ones but cheaper and involve less nagging from Tia when they start working

Doubly so as Luna is something of a wallflower even when the peasantry start dancing.

Alternatively... The Night Guard could run covert wargames to make sure the Solar Guard are fit...

It also doesn't help that medieval Ponies have much less to entertain themselves with. The world of Unicornia is much smaller than even irl Dark Age kingdoms, not only in pop size and land claims, but culturally as well. At least with Dark Age kingdoms you could sneak across a hostile border, but in Unicornia they are understandably xenophobic. (In that everyone around them is either looking to steal their food, or just straight up eat them.)
