All Hail the Great and Powerful Princess Trixie Lulamoon!

(Inspired on Royal Pains by PononymousPony)

“All Hail the Great and Powerful Princess Trixie Lulamoon!”

The little filly stand atop the pile of boxes, wearing a fake tiara and paper wings, and doing a terrible impression of the Royal Canterlot Voice.

Prince Blueblood (an actual prince, not a pretend one) sighed. He hated whenever Trixi insisted on playing Pretty Princess because, not only will she be an obnoxious demandipants; but she always insisted on *gah!* kissing her prince. And three guesses on who has to play the part.

“Trixie, please come down You could fall down and hurt yourself. Remember you don´t quite master the levitation spell unlike T-“

“SILENCE! Your Princess demands cookies! Go fetch them!”

“Yes, your highness…”

Prince Blueblood tugged the alicorn tail. “Cousin Cadance, don´t leave me alone with her!”

“Now Blueblood be a nice colt and play with Trixie while I'm on the kitchen.”

“But…” but the alicorn princess disregarded his complaints with just a pat on the head.

“Remember that our Auntie put me in charge. Now, go play with Trixie.”

Prince Blueblood snorted. He hated how despite his constant reminder that he was now a gentlecolt and didn´t need a foalsitter anymore, his aunt always treated him like a baby. And to make matters worse whenever she shows up she always bring a “playmate”, some insufferable pedestrian colt or filly that will disrespect Blueblood and force him to play ridiculous games. Trixie was by far the worst one but there was another filly that Blueblood didn't like. Unlike Trixie she was really quiet, always with her snout on a book. Blueblood hated being told what to do but he hated even more to be ignored. How dare that T-

“BLUEBLOOD! Your Princess wants you here right now!”

“You´re not a Princess so don't give me orders! I am a true prince, you should obey me!”

“I´m the princess of the Crystal Kingdom! You will obey me! Now, come up here.”

“I don´t want to!”

“I said come up here!”

“I don´t want to!”

“Cadanceeee!”

“Blueblood, play nice.”

Blueblood snorted again and climbed the fake tower of the Crystal Kingdom. This was ridiculous, he thought. They were merely a few hooves higher than before, standing atop a pile of boxes around a fake kingdom made of boxes. Only an uncouth pony like Trixie could think this was an actual kingdom.

“Behold, dear husband!”

“I´m not your husband…”

“This is my kingdom! Look at my subjects!” (Blueblood suppressed a laugh at the dolls on the floor around them) They all love me and chant my name!”

“Please, you do realize this are merely pretend subjects ona pretend city and that you are a pretend princess, do you? Whereas I, am an actual member of the royal family!” he proudly announced while punching his chest.

“Ha! Being born in royalty is not everything! The value of a true princess lies on her heart! Even a commoner like me could become a princess if she really believes so!”

Blueblood laughed aloud but his mock was cut short when he turned and saw a different side of Trixie.

“Someday…I will be famous. My name will be known all over Equestria and everypony will look up to me and love me.”

Blueblood looked at his playmate and no longer saw a boisterous loud mare; instead he saw a sad little filly, wearing a fake tiara and paper wings. Looking at those deep and hurt purple eyes he felt something inside his chest. What was this feeling growing inside him? This need to hold her close, hug her, comfort her…

“Why are you all red?”

Blueblood hide his flustered cheeks way. “N-no reason!”

“…weird.”

“Anyways, aren´t you supposed to make the crystal spheres sing with the sunrise or whatever the princess of the crystal kingdom  is supposed to do?!”

“Of course! I can rise the sun with my magic!”

“Ha! Like you have any magic! You don´t even know the most basic of spells!”

“I do know magic!”

Blueblood laughed again. “Please, merely magi kindergarten tricks! I´m being trained by the court magicians themselves!”

“So you think you're better than Trixie?!”

“Undoubtedly.”

With her cheeks blushing red out of anger, Trixie concentrated all the magic she could gather on her horn and released it all in one huge blast. It wasn't a sunrise precisely, more like fireworks, filling the living room with a series of bright green and purple explosions that resembled animals and ponies.

“Woa…”

“I did it! I did it! I made magic! I did it!”

Filled with joy and pride, Trixie jumped and hugged Blueblood, forgetting they were atop an unstable pile of boxes. They both fell to the ground and when the dust cleared, Trixie saw herself reflected on the bright blue eyes of the prince, their faces merely a few inches away as she laid on top of him.

“…”

“Oh my, I hope I´m not interrupting anything.”

Since Trixie was too busy blushing to say anything, Blueblood acted like a true gentlecolt.

“Co-cousin Cadance! Take this pedestrian mare off me!”

“Pedestrian? You dare call the great and Powerful Trixie pedestrian?”

Cadance rolled her eyes and placed the cookies on the table, while the two little ponies continued to argue, inadvertently destroying the kingdom of boxes.
