  1. >Celestia sits on her throne, writing on a scroll with a levitating quill.
  2. >The chef bows.
  3. >"Your highness."
  4. >She lowers the scroll and notices the two of you.
  5. >"You may rise."
  6. >He does so.
  7. >"Princess, I came here to ask you of a favor."
  8. >She nods.
  9. >"Feel free to speak your mind."
  10. >"Princess, I actually came here with the notion to resign as head chef..."
  11. >Her face contorts to one of mild surprise.
  12. >"But why would you, Brass Pot?"
  13. >"I'm not. Anymore, at least. I just had a chat with your friend here."
  14. >You wave at the princess.
  15. >"Anonymous?"
  16. "Hey there."
  17. >"He proposed somethin' that made it impossible to say no to leavin', but we needed your approval first."
  18. >She waits for an answer.
  19. >"He asked me if he could become a side chef or health-inspector for the kitchen. You trust him to run around in there?"
  20. >She still remembers what 'food' you made for her the first day.
  21. >If ponies could put their hands on their hips like human women, you're sure that's what Celestia would be doing right now, considering the look she was giving you.
  22. >"And you suggested this to him, Anon?"
  23. "Yes I did. Well, do you trust me?"
  24. >"That's a difficult question, Anon. At least as far as the kitchen's concerned."
  25. >She shifts in her throne.
  26. >"How do I know you won't do anything chaotic?"
  27. >You kick the ground in front of you.
  28. "Honestly, I know you probably can't. But I swear from this point on, it's no more funny business in the kitchen. I won't make you eat something you don't know the contents of again. You have my word."
  29. >You put your hand over your chest and raise your free one.
  30. >Kind of like a boy scout.
  31. "I swear, Celestia."
  32. >Her expression was hard for a moment, but melted away into a caring smile.
  33. >"That's all I needed to hear, Anon."
  34. >She gets off of the throne and walks to you and Brass Pot.
  35. >She puts a hoof on your shoulder.
  36. >"From this point on, you shall take the role of health and safety inspector in the castle kitchen, as well as the occasional side chef, Anon. If you wish, I will provide you lodging in the castle. If so, you may return home to pack any of your belongings. If not," she smiles, "no harm done."
  37. >It was a good offer, but did you really want to live in the castle from now on?
  38. >Your first home in Equestria still held some kind of value to you.
  39. >But you could also move into a goddamn castle.
  40. >Whatever you wanted.
