** Celestia goes along with Twilight possibly having a crush on her, so she's either bi, a lesbian, or just humouring Twilight.
** Twilight's "friend" has a crush on a mare, meaning she's either bi or a lesbian.

Twilight's "friend" wants to ask out a certain mare she has feelings for, but doesn't really know the right way to do it - or even if she should ask her out. Because the mare her "friend" likes is a regal, majestic pony who spends a lot of time in Canterlot and has a reputation to uphold...
