Celestia doing her Taxes.

Fun idea!

It amuses me to try to figure out why a princess wouldn't hire someone to take care of her prodigious assets.

Perhaps the tax code is structured to make the process fun?

Or it breaks up the monotony of her duties?

So adorable.

Another reason would be because she wants people to treat her like a normal pony/like everypony else. Maybe in Equestria ponies don't usually hire somepony to do their taxes.

I'd like to think that being a princess has some advantages, and not needing to wade through 1000+ pages of boring financial documents should be one of them. But how would you make a 1000+ page tax form interesting?

Maybe she is just checking the summary sheets after someone else did the heavy lifting?

Or maybe her assets are not expanding much, and the form stays similar each year. In this case, she could just be reviewing the changes?

Or maybe she needs an excuse to wear those cute glasses?

I like the second reason better. "Buck the tax forms, I want to look 20% cuter!"

Glad y'all like the glasses. An excuse to put those on Celestia was literally the only reason I drew this xD

Wait... as the ruler of Equestria, why would she have to pau taxes.

She doesn't look to happy to be doing them either. .....Still cute as heck though.

Wait a minute... *Looks at picture again.* It's colored! The cuteness has been doubled by 20%!"

When's the last time you were happy with two huge stacks of paper involving taxes ?

Because xD I dunno. I just thought it was a funny picture to do.

Oh dear, I totally forgot her magic. Going to fix that and update the picture.

Oh yeah! Nopony ever noticed, I'm sure you could have gotten away with it.

Sssh. I'm stickler for little details . This project has been plagued with stuff like that xD First edition had her missing wings, then a band of colour in her mane, and now her magic.

Love the Pic... but dont Royalty have people to do that for them... like treasures

She might not be annoyed, that could be a look of intense concentration.

Haha, I love this picture! xD

To be honest, I think this is prior to Celestia reading up a spell book on Financial Magic.
