After retiring Celestia opens a Tea-Store in Manehatten to bring her beloved subjects that which also made her own days just a little bit brighter as well.
In the streets of Manehatten every day she meets new customers and learns about their ways of live. But between the problems of starting a business and having a Video-Game loving sister even the former ruler of Equestria quickly finds herself challenged.
This seems like a sweet idea. Am intrigued.
So far, I'm interested. Though, I'd be surprised if nopony wanted to get tea from an actual friggin princess.
I think this is a really interesting concept, focusing on Celestia as a citizen instead of a ruler. I look forward to reading more
This is coming along really nicely. I can't wait for what shenanigans will happen during Celestia's first day.
Something tells me she’s gonna be regretting this idea.
Is this going to continue?
1. You need a permit to hold a speech?
2. I wouldn’t even call that much of a speech.
So does she have a white mane or a polychromatic mane?
Don’t you mean anymore awkward?
So what is the purpose of needing a permit for a speech, then?
The police is something.
I love how happy she is.

Hey,
Thanks a lot for all the feedback and the review!
The reasoning behind the speech-permit was that it can confuse/distract ponies from their every day live - also to make sure that the officials know about it in case the speech causes ponies to rally for harm or similar.
I miswrote the part about her coat/mane, thanks for pointing it out! Of course it's a white coat and polychromatic mane*
Going to edit this and 'any less awkward' right now.
Yea, I suppose writing the purpose of a permit in Justice's talk would help the readers understand. Thanks again ^^
To be honest I was quite unsure about even adding this whole police part - after all it is sort of forced into the story.
However the picture of the princess in the police-station on that small wooden stool convinced me to just write it out. After all I do this for fun anyway
Once more, thanks for all the feedback! I honestly appreciate it :D

You’re very welcome
I am glad you decided to continue this story. I wonder what kind of mischief Celestia will cause
10634874
Thanks for the kind comment
Won't spoil anything but it will for sure be fun
Is this story based off of Tearek?
A good story! You’re paragraphs are inconsistent, but other then that I really like it!
10640259
Haven't heard of this one, and I hope it's not stealing anything.
10640447
Thank you! I'll make sure to pay more attention to the structure for the next one (and will edit this and previous chapters accordingly of course )
This is probably the most amount of action celestia has seen in years.

This insult hit Celestia where it hurt: "Hey! Back in Canterlot there also was a lot to do! I did not only sit around to eat cake and drink tea all day!"
Before she could go on Luna chuckled, paused the Console and lifted off her headset: "I suppose you're right, sister. Pancakes were on your menu as well."

Ok, now that’s funny.
Or it can be the fact that twilight isn’t there to help her.
Wow, that’s actually a good way to describe it.
This is actually a real life problem.
Now she knows how everyone else feels.
10657972
those jokes never get old
Thank you
Yea, my idea was to add of the conflict of the American Dream/Nightmare as a Manehattean version, perhaps discussing it on a sidenote throughout the story.
Thanks for the comment and for reading on. I'm glad you enjoy the story!

I honestly don’t know what that celestia emoji is.
10661405
I understand and use it as Celestia-Trollface. After all it's called >trollestia< emote ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
10662733
Ohh. Never really paid attention to that.
This was quite the wholesome chapter, I really like how Celestia is still willing to help even after a thousand year (or more) of leading Equestria. I look forward to see how the ponies of Manehattan react to her.

Thank you!
Glad you enjoy it
Even if a serious did occur, what would you do about it?
Taking word?
What’s the problem?
Is she saying luna was distracted at the time?
Wow, looks like celestia still has regrets to this day.
I think I know what game she was playing.
I know that game!
Luna may no longer be a princess of Equestria but she remains the undisputed princess of gaming

"I'd do my best to return to Canterlot as quickly as possible and inform Twilight and her friends! After all I've got a store to run."
Thank you, my bad. I translated an expression without noticing it doesn't work in english. Corrected to "[...] raising her voice again."
In Chapter one Celesta provided a pretty good summary of an evening a few days before she opened CelesTea:
It's a good game indeed! Also the first fight against Velvet in the Storymode is sooo difficult

It's a good game indeed!

Eyup, Luna best gamer princess.
I wanted to make sure Luna get's a fair share of personality and depth and to ensure she isn't just "grumpy gamy and not-communicating-at-all" but also that they both have sisterly conversations and still care for each other. Also Luna as gamer is simply a must have!

I don’t think I saw the correction, but thanks.
10688992
My bad, I did not save it the first time, but it should be updated now

Thanks
