"Wow I almost feel bad eating this. It's adorable!" Starlight says as the group is having breakfast with Celestia.

"Like I said I enjoy this part." Celestia says as a tired Luna walks in.

"Hi." Luna says as she eats a banana peel and begins to leave.

"Uh sister Luna could you possibly wait one moment? Starlight said she bad something to discuss this morning." Alexis asks as Luna stops.

"As you all know the map sent me here for a reason and I think I've found out what it is." Starlight says.

"Really? Oh that is wonderful. What is it?" Celestia asks happily.

"Well I think it might be... you two." Starlight says nervously.

"I beg your pardon?" Celestia asks annoyedly.

"Excuse me?" Luna asks annoyedly.

"What?" Alexis asks in slight annoyance.

"I think you're accidentally hurting each other's feelings. Without realizing it of course. Princess Celestia does it bother you that Luna never notices the wonderful breakfasts that you prepare for her?" Starlight asks as she looks at Celestia.

"Yes. It does." Celestia says as she looks away.

"Princess Alexis aren't you bothered by all the things going on? Feeling like you are caught in the middle of it all so often?" Starlight asks as she looks at Alexis.

"Well... yeah." Alexis says as she looks down.

"And Princess Luna tell Celestia how you feel when she never acknowledged the work you put into lining the hallway with lavender every night." Starlight says as she looks at Luna.

"I... Well it's not the best feeling. I'm sorry I never noticed you make fruit faces on pancakes. But nights are long for me! You might be a morning pony but I am half asleep!" Luna says annoyedly as she looks at Celestia.

"You think I don't get tired? I'm exhausted. Oh I apologize for not noticing flowers in a wall sconce but by the time I get to retire for the night I can barely see straight. Even so I still make an effort to smile." Celestia says angrily as she smiles.

"Like smiling is so hard!" Luna says angrily.

"I-I-I-I'm sure that's not what Princess Luna meant to say." Starlight says as she tries to intervene with no luck.

"And this is why I was afraid to mention anything." Alexis says as she goes over to Starlight.

"Is that what exhausts you? Smiling and being adored by everypony?" Luna asks angrily.

"And you have it so much worse do you? You spend your evenings flitting around giving ponies lovely dreams! Oh it sounds just awful." Celestia says angrily.

"Okay maybe we should all just take a breath sisters." Alexis says.

"Don't presume to know what it is like to govern the dream realm!" Luna shouts angrily.

"And yet you know exactly what it's like to be me? Oh please." Celestia says angrily.

"Enough! There! Now you'll know exactly what it's like to be each other!" Starlight shouts as she casts a spell engulfing Celestia and Luna in it.

"Starlight what did you do?" Alexis asks in alarm as everyone sees Celestia and Luna's cutiemarks were switched.

"I went with my gut?" Starlight asks nervously.

"Switch our cutiemarks back this instant." Celestia says angrily.

"My apologies Your Majesties. But I can't even if I wanted to. This spell lasts twenty-four hours. It may have been extreme but... I think it's still a good idea." Starlight says as she smiles nervously.

"What?" Celestia asks angrily as sighs and steps in front of Starlight.

"I have to agree sisters. This is extreme but you said yourselves that neither of you believes the other has it harder. And I'm honestly tired of feeling like I'm stuck in the middle trying to be a peace maker." Alexis says.

"So this is your chance to prove it." Starlight says.

"Well I could use an easy day followed by a good night's sleep." Luna says.

"You can try. I haven't had an easy day in well ever. But now I get to sleep and tonight will be a breeze. All right Starlight Glimmer. We will do this." Celestia says as she smiles.

"Good choice. Not that you had one. I'm gonna stop talking now." Starlight says as Luna and Celestia give angry looks.

"I hope you know what you're doing Starlight." Alexis says as she looks at Starlight.

*Timeskip*

"You made it to the end of the day. I was a little worried for a bit. Starlight?" Alexis asks as she visits Starlight's room and sees she is out cold before chuckling and walks off.
