Twilight stands in front of the counter at Sugar Cube Corner, talking to Berry about what they need for Celestia's arrival. As Berry was staring at the cake he prepared.


"Okay, so we got a cake, we need some fine wine, someone's gotta get a red carpet..." Dusk looked at the clipboard, "Oh, my God, I forgot to get the golden statue of Celestia! Uh... it's okay! Maybe...maybe she'll settle for an ice sculpture! Berry! Who in town knows how to make ice sculptures?!" He asked.


"Berry does. Yes." Berry smiled.


"Are you lying?" Dusk questioned.


Berry chuckled, "No." He whispered, "Yes."


"Well then, don't! This is serious!" Dusk gulped, "Celestia's coming to Ponyville, and I don't know if you realize this, but since getting to town, I have been doing dick!"


"Elusive is the bad influence on you. Yes." Berry smiled.


"I mean metaphorically! I'm supposed to be studying friendship, but all I've got is a handful of situational anecdotes and sleeping with (Y/N)!" Dusk grumbled, "I couldn't even get into a scientific journal with that, and that's, like, the lowest, most paltry measure of success in a research project! A mentally handicapped chimp could get into a scientific journal, Berry! A mentally handicapped chimp!" Dusk whined.


"Then you should outsource your research to a mentally handicapped chimp. Yes. Then take credit for its research!" Berry paused, "Or...or...or we could poison Celestia! Yes. Then your failings will be forgiven!"


Dusk's eyes widened, "Are you kidding?! Celestia's personal memoirs on poison alone could fill this room from top to bottom!" Dusk sighed, "A concoction of carefully measured deadly toxins is part of her daily diet! They say her saliva could kill a pony! Why do you think she doesn't have any suitors?"


Then (Y/N) and Butterscotch showed up at the door.


"Come on, Stotchy...You can do it." (Y/N) smiles.


Butterscotch gulps, "Um... excuse me?"


"The store is closed." Dusk states, "(Y/N) come in, we need help."


"I'm sorry." Butterscotch looked down as (Y/N) grabbed Butterscotch hoof and walked in a bit.


"Okay, great. Glad we cleared that up." Dusk looked away.


"Um..." Butterscotch looked at (Y/N) who nodded, "Dusk?"


Dusk groans, "What?!"


"Am I supposed to be here for the party?" Butterscotch asked, "(Y/N) said I am...but I wanted to make sure..."


"It is closed invitational, so no. Random-ass ponies do not belong." Dusk states, "(Y/N), why would you invite him?"
