After Celestia takes her flying chariot to Ponyville to have an important talk with the new Princess Twilight Sparkle, she teleports back to Canterlot... leaving her charioteers behind. Unsure what else to do in the wake of this improbable, nay, highly unusual, nay, nay, impossible event, the two pegasi have a conversation that leads them to some startling revelations.

Wanting to know how to run her castle more sufficiently Twilight decides to visit Canterlot Castle and asked Celestia on the matter. However, she finds Celestia in a very dire state. What can she do lift her from this stupor, even when she herself is panicked? Why she needs a beverage of course.

I don't own the Artwork. It belongs to SilFoe. Her art is awesome so do check her out.

The story OC belongs to Noir De Plume. This is intended as both a gift and dedication to her character featured in this story.

Special credit goes to editor JuneGold, who helped heavily with the editing process and made the story flow. The guy helped me out a lot with the story so much thanks goes to him.

Edit: Added Proofreading skills belonging to Randompig212 for the touch ups. Thanks for the help.

Twilight has just put a crack in the library's front door.

Twilight has damaged government property.

Twilight has been in Ponyville for less than a moon.

Twilight has to fix this before anypony of importance finds out and word gets back to the Princess, which means Twilight is going to be doing all the work herself in the name of desperate secrecy.

Twilight is screwed.

PRINCESS TWILIGHT SPARKLE: DEAD AT 18

TELEPORTATION INVARIABLY FATAL, WARNS LEADING SCHOLAR

One look at the headline of the Canterlot Times and Twilight knew that she should have slept in today. But at least none of her friends would be silly enough to believe she was killing herself every time she teleported, right?

What if pony princesses were actually highly social carnivores?

What if a National Geographic team began following them around to film a documentary?

What if nopony saw anything unusual about this?

A metaphor about growing up. Or possibly a metaphor about living in a surveillance society. Or maybe just a very, very weird idea that needed to become a story.

You first met her in "The Sunbutt Also Rises." Now, find out how poor Daybreak came to be the one to blame for the weirdest day in Equestria's history!

Daybreak Dazzler has the best job in the world: Official Caffeinator of Canterlot Castle, and Personal Caffeine Liaison to Princess Luna.

Her life was not always this glamorous, however, and her journey from unknown barista to the Wizard of Wakeup was long and arduous. Fraught with frustrations and setbacks, this Miraculous Mare of the Most Marvelous Mocha refused to stay down.

Her story starts in the rainy downtown streets of Seaddle, at a little shop called Starbits...

Not enough Daybreak? Read her continuing adventures in "A Princess Needs her Coffee", a lovely story by my wonderful friend Broman.

(Artwork again by the wonderful Omny87)

Noticing her Princess' plight, the kitchen mare helpfully offers some of Luna's "special brew" to jumpstart Celestia's day. Chaos ensues when an overly percolated princess can't handle her caffeine!

(Rated "Teen" for the single use of one naughty word.)

Daybreak's story is told here in Sometimes It Takes a Double Shot!

(Many thanks to CaptainBron3y for this live reading!)

Don't miss the unofficial sequel "A Princess Needs her Coffee", a lovely story by my wonderful friend Broman.

Twilight Sparkle, personal student of Princess Celestia, is sent by her teacher to retrieve a very specific book from the Royal Library. The only problem is, she doesn't know what it's called or where to find it.

Fortunately for her, libraries are the most orderly, most mundane and certainly the safest of places one could possibly be. Or, so she thinks.

Twilight is about to find out how very strange the world of books can truly be.

A/N:
This story takes place before season 1. Many thanks to Coandco and Ekevoo for editing and pre-reading.
