Being commissioned by Princess Celestia herself was quite literally a godsend for Rarity's career. The only bump in the road is the long commute, which can get rather boring; luckily, she isn't alone.
However, when confronted with a job offer that can transform her career but make her temporary stay in Canterlot into a permanent one, she finds herself reluctant to accept, if only because of the very same reason she wasn't taking the train alone.
Takes place before Season 4 finale.
