As the siblings walked, er flew and walked, Coby stopped and looked up. "I'd venture to guess that's the castle of Canterlot..." He spoke with a gesture toward a large castle upon the cliff side. "I wonder what it's like inside...?" He spoke more to himself than to Ami but she chirped in just the same. "I bet it's huge~! There's probably a spiral staircase on each side and a grand ball room just like in the pony tails I read!" Her eyes started to shine with excitement. Coby chuckled. "I hope so, that sounds wonderful." They continued onward then, each silently thinking of what it might entail. As the minutes passed they spotted off in the distance a few groups of ponies. They seemed familiar. "Hmm? Is that...?" Coby began, looking closer he noticed he had seen some of them around ponyville. "If memory serves... That's Big Macintosh of Sweet Apple Acres and Carrot Top, the local carrot farmer... I wonder who the rest of them are... I know I've seen them before in passing..." Once again, he spoke to himself more than to Ami. "I don't know, but the little orange Pegasus has a really cute dress~" Ami chimed. They were still a good bit away from the group of traveling ponies, but Coby could pick out a few things here and there. "Celestia." "Luna." "Parents." and "Elder Gods." Stuck out the most. 'Hmm..?' He thought to himself. 'So it would seem the princesses' parents are here...? This is going to be a very interesting night indeed...'

Pinch looked over at the two accompanying ponies and drew a long sigh.
"Well. Here goes nothing, right?" he asked, looking toward the gleaming city in front of them.

Cinder giggled at Type's explanation of arguing with his raven.
"Come on, silly boys, let's go!" Excitedly, she entered the castle, her friends behind her.

Luna sighed. "Alright, that should about do it. And, with ten minutes to spare. ^^ ...I think I sense ponies arriving." Then, she teleported to the very front of the inside of the castle, and smiled. "Hey, guys! Glad to see you managed to make it. ^^"

After the Stallions had moved his cart to a safe area, he payed them and sent them off before finishing getting ready. As he exited his portable home/research cart, he smiled. Dressed in what he considered proper attire. He wore a dark blue, nearly black hat(fedora with an area cut open for his horn), a vest of the same color, a lighter blue tie that was tucked into said vest, and a small set of saddle bags that were not as fancy, but fit well with the attire.
He used his magic to bring out his silver pocket watch to check the time, nodding seeing as though he did plan this well enough. He began making his way to the castle proper, joining the crowds of ponies in route. In his bags he had a few select scrolls and his research journal(the latter he didn't go anywhere without when it was the real him). He didn't know much about the parents of the Princess', but he did know there were going to be some of the most brillent minds in magic research were going to be there, and if he couldn't get there input now, he was at least hoping to make some good contacts.

This would be a problem.
Type hadn't expected a personal greeting from the princess. Of course, she was talking to everypony, but with her eyes on the crowd, it would be a while before he could make his move. With a sigh, he whispered to Munin, "Magum Opus, Nigredo" The raven silently flew away, hopefully unnoticed amongst the crowd.

Big-Mac entered the castle right in time to see a dashing, purple mare appear right in front of him. He then realized this must be Luna. He wasn't quite sure how to greet her, did he stick out his hoof? Did he say the first words or did he? He panicked, and slowly moved behind Pinch.

Arcel looked up, "Excuse me," he spoke towards Type, "That phrase.... I know I have heard it around somewhere before... Magum Opus, just can't seem to recall what it means..." he realizes that it was whispered, and then blushed, "Oh.... sorry about that, didn't mean to but into a private conversatio-" it finaly clicked in his head, ".... oh, your Typewryter, correct?" he asked, having only encountered him in passing with one of his clones, seeing though his own eyes instead of his minds slowed his realization time.

Of course he knows the princess. Well that was just cricket, wasn't it? Now if Spike (and likely, any of his friends) spotted Type, they would be a direct line to the princess. fourteen more eyes to avoid. Bloody fantastic.
Type turned to see a blue unicorn speaking to him, "Yes, I'm Typewryter. And you are?"

Pinch saw the moon princess standing in front of him. He had never been in contact with royalty before. So many things were running through his head.
What would he say? What would he do? What if the thing he says makes him look like a complete idiot? He tried to put it in the back of his mind as he spoke to Princess Luna.
He shrunk back a bit. "Um...g-good evening, your highness," he said with a bit of a forced smile. "Pretty nice event you have going on here." he felt the beads of nervous sweat forming.

The blue pony paused, thinking about the actions, then face hoofing once, he had to remember that he wasn't using a clone here, it was really him. He looked up and smiled, offering a hoof to shake, "Prof. Mythic Swirl, Illusion magic researcher, but most call me Arcel," he exlpained, "we have met once or twice... kind of... Well I saw you at least, not sure if you saw me, I try to keep a low profile," he said, smiling.
Arcel then turned to Princess Luna and bowed, as was customary and proper.

Luna thought to herself, Huh...Everypony seems stressed...Maybe I should do something non-princessy to- No, no, no, Luna...This is for your parents. Can't do anything too stupid to make ponies more comfortable...So, what to do...?
