Oh, Shining Armor. You attained rank of Captain of the Canterlot Guard, married who might be the third loveliest mare in all of Equestria, and fathered a child. You've come so far, and yet you suffer so much indignity. But hey, as your sister and her friends can tell you, the path of glory is often paved with humiliation. At the end of the day, you still have your family, friends, and a really nice house in the Crystal Empire.
