"Human in Equestria" fic, that's a sequel to a previous one that built up the convoluted relationships that eventually lead to this scene:
Quote:“Greetings everypony, by now I take it that you have received word that I will be taking a leave of absence for the foreseeable future,” Celestia began, much the same way she had started her speech.http://www.fimfiction.net/story/187407/ ... choriginal fic:http://www.fimfiction.net/story/181310/ ... t-overlord
She even paused to wait for the first wave of panic to get over with.
“Oh no!” Celestia’s aide involving foreign matters said as she put her hooves to her cheeks.
“Oh no!” the goddess’s financial aide shouted while he backed away.
“Oh no!” Tia’s aide that changeling intelligence said dealt with the school system cried.
My obligatory eye roll was cut off when the wall suddenly exploded to admit a large red pony I actually mistook to be Big Macintosh for a moment before he stood up on his hind legs to shout, “OH YEAH!”
I…untensed from what had become my pony combat stance and folded my wings back down to…blink at the sight. Then I looked up to Celestia and pointed towards the newcomer. “What the hay is that?”
The goddess returned my look of confusion with a giggle. “Oh, that’s my cool aide."
