Caspian, and weep,
Prologue
[Ponyville, winter. The day after the start of cider season, Wednesday]
“Rainbow Dash! There you are.” Rarity exclaimed, her magic flaring as it encircled the blue pegasus mare who was walking along looking some what pensive with a fair sized cask held between her wings.
“What? Shards Rarity what!?” Rainbow Dash flailed grabbing the cask before it fell.”Don't shake this I want the cider not just the foam!”
Rarity ignored her carrying the mare and her cask along with a large collection of bags full of fabric.
“What do you mean what!?” Rarity scoffed. “I have been looking for you all week. You're running out of time for me to coach you.”
“Coach me? “ Rainbow Dash questioned. “On what?”
“What do you mean on what? You came to me for help preparing you for a date, and despite my great personal anguish and four tubs of mint chocolate chip ice cream, I shall do what you asked because I am your friend. Thus I am helping you prepare for your date with Prince Blueblood.”
“That's still nearly two weeks away.” Rainbow Dash protested.
“Dash, it is Wednesday. Your date is THIS Saturday.” Rarity corrected.
“What? Seriously? A week and a half is gone already!!? It only felt like three, four days tops since I agreed to that! “ Rainbow Dash shouted clearly starting to panic.” I still freaking smell like pumpkins.”
“Yes well your personal hygiene is something we are going to address as well as to make you out to be a proper lady fit for a noble.” Rarity stated dragging Rainbow Dash into her shop. “ I shall not rest until you are perfectly ready to sweep him off his hooves as it were or he shall die trying.”
“Don't you mean we'll die trying?” Dash asked.
“No.”
[ Golden Oaks library Thursday.]
Twilight Sparkle sat at the table, her hooves steepled under her nose as she considered what was asked of her. The purple mare was in shadow as standing on one side of her blocking the light was her 'bigger' brother Rahs Sparkle. He stood with his arms crossed, wearing a burgundy long coat with black trim. His ears were perked as he regarded the one at the end of the table the small glowing points of light at the tip making his feline amber eyes glimmer.
Her little brother, Spike Sparkle, sat in the chair next to her. He too had his arms crossed over his chest and was kicked back in his chair with his feet up on the table and a pair of sunglasses that seemed to reflect more light than they should, covering his eyes.
She'd yell at him later about his feet being on the table, but this was more important.
“Are you sure you want us to do this. Things tend to get a little.... interesting when we're put to a task you know.” Twilight explained.
“Given who and what I'm up against, you are the only ones I can reasonably turn to. I would not bother you if this was something I could deal with myself.” The pony at the other end of the table stated. “ This has to be perfect, I expect I will only have this one chance.”
Twilight sat back with a sigh, her brothers looked to her curiously before turning to look back at the one at the other end of the table.
“I know what the three of you can do working together. It's the only thing that may stand a chance.” the stallion sighed.
“Alright. Ill do it because you're both friends of mine.”
“Woof.” Rahs agreed.
“Rahs wants his usual fee of a bit of magic.” Twilight added.
“I want a Neightendo.” Spike added.
“Easily done.” the stallion chuckled.
“Then we'd best get to work.” Twilight stated as Rahs slid a folder across the table to the stallion.”This is all the new information I've got as well as the information I didn't send you before as I didn't think it would be relevant.”
“Because you didn't realize what I was going to do at the time.”
“No, had I known we would have helped sooner.” Twilight sighed, as Rahs and Spike nodded.
“Yes, well, it was something I truly didn't want to get out. And if you had started investigating specifically, some one would have noticed.”
“True.” Twilight nodded.”I want the full plans for what you are going to do so I can plan.”
“It's not that different than our first encounter, only everything will be here in Ponyville.” the stallion smirked.
“So a show then dinner. “Twilight considered.” I will warn you, Ponyville just got a cinema, so I don't know how it is yet. But the dinner should be easy I've made a list of places Rainbow Dash likes to eat in there. Reservations have been set at all of them already and tickets for the showing of a action show she might like are in the folder.”
“I hope you know what you're doing Prince.”
“It should be fine. I mean after all with you three to keep the paparazzi at bay and to make sure none of the princesses get involved, this should be perfect.” Prince Blueblood smiled.
“No plan survives first contact with the enemy.” Spike offered sagely. “But, they don't often survive first contact with us either.”

Let's be honest here! The SMELL of pumpkin is heck to get rid of and if it gets in hair or in this case FUR; yeah, she's gonna be smellin' of that for awhile!
I feel as if there is a "all according to keikaku" joke to make here.....
Well lets see how bad this date backfire for all party's involved
i have feeling, things are going to end badly for the prince and rainbow
9406739
Was going for a mafia don vibe but that works too.
I can already tell this isn't going to work. Blueblood loves rainbow for herself and partly because she treats him like another normal guy. Not because she treats him like the prince that he is.
I haven't even read that far into this chapter yet and I can already tell you that Rainbow should NOT listen to Rarity because Prince is NOT looking for a proper lady, he is looking for someone like Rainbow normally is.
Considering Rarity is apparently teaching Rainbow Dash for a High Class Date and Twi and her brothers are preparing Blueblood for his usual kind of date, but tailored to Rainbow Dash, I can already see the fireworks. Did Trixie return to Ponyville early?
When I read the title, my response was along the lines of, "Prince Caspian? What? Wait, was he a cat all along?"
Oh, This is gonna be good!
At least it'll be on a Saturday. If it were on Tuesday, then I'd consider that a worthy time to be nervous.
This is gonna be a date for the ages
Wonder how they'll keep Cadance away
Posting shenanigans for puns? I aprove!
I so do love when comedy characters are self aware

I'm betting Cadance was in the room as the Sparkle Trio and Blueblood made their arrangements using the same spell to make herself unnoticed that she did during Blueblood's and Twilight's date. She's made an extremely heavy investment in the relationship happiness of these two and there is absolutely no way she isn't going to make sure Blueblood's date with his true love isn't going to be anything else except a success.
Speaking of ensuring success, there is absolutely no way Princess Luna doesn't know about this date, or about Rarity's attempts to sabotage it. Either Rarity mumbles in her sleep and Sweetie Belle heard it and told Luna or Luna has gotten some rather.... disturbing reports from her subjects in dreamland involving Rarity , Rainbow Dash, Prince Blueblood, and Doctor Choppy. I wouldn't be surprised if she has dispatched her agents with undoing everything single shred of sabotage Rarity will instill in Rainbow.
Princess Celestia probably knows nothing about it as neither Luna nor Cadance have felt the need to bring it up to her, Twilight and her brothers haven't told her, Shining wouldn't dare cross both Cadance and Twilight at the same time, and all those wonderful not so subtle guards Celestia stationed in Ponyville to protect Twilight and her friends (which Twilight already has a complete list of) are more terrified of what Twilight will do to them if one of them told Celestia than what Celestia will do to them for not telling her after this whole farce blows up and she finally hears about it back in Canterlot.
This is going to be beautiful and I cannot wait to see what happens.
Also, we are completely skipping over what Twilight and Applejack said to RD at the end of the previous chapter and if they managed to make up. Good to know. Who needs that?
meh, gotta respect commitment to a joke, no matter how infuriating it was.
The enemy or the plan?
Lol love spikes words there no plan survives first contact with the enemy or the three of us
Whose quote is this? I think I heard it somewhere before. And I have an ominous feeling on the second half of the sentence.
There is only one thing that can be said about the date chapter.

You do you, that's what we love.
Dramatically holds up doom flag
9407393
Yes.
9406798
Seems more like she's trying to get revenge on him or one-up him somehow to me. That or she's forcing her fantasies of wealth and status on RD, because heavens forbid they have anything other than a prim and proper starched dry high society evening.
9408569
Prim an proper is always what she thought high society to be. Shes only just starting to think maybe its not. But shes still stuck on the idea. Shes willing to let wooster help her to prep dash because shes realized maybe its not like that. She kinda does the same thing in the show.
Oooh, I like this one. It’s a good line.
9407654
Yeah. Crimson flag has been raised.
Great chapter. Epic date incoming perhaps?
Princesses vs Sparkles... Begin!
*After reading the chapter*
Readers: "What could possibility go wrong?"
Murphy: "Not falling for it this time..."
this is so very true in so many ways it's scary
A more... Accurate quote could not have been made, Spike. Good on ya.
With how Cadance always somehow had her hooves in Bluebloods date one way or another I think it's a safe way to assume that the Sparkle family will have a interesting time holding the pink shipping-holic busy.
👍
This is going to be fun...
Time for the famous line:
Everything is fair in love♡ and war♤
