Fan Fiction Review #014: Strange Bedfellows



Hey there, kids! Tweak back once more to review some fan fiction fer ya! This is my first assigned review here at FOB Equestria. Wow, I'm being assigned to read pony fiction. My life is officially awesome.

AUTHOR:  Fernin
Princess Celestia gave very clear instructions to Twilight and her friends before sending them through the Interface to the temporary embassy on Earth: without the unanimous support of all six mares, any and all negotiations with the humans of the Confederate Gulf States will come to a screeching halt. 
Both sides have much to gain from a cordial relationship and, after a week of feverish talks, the Confederacy has brought around five of the six Equestrian ambassadors...  But there is one hold-out: Applejack.  How can the CGS' diplomatic team get Applejack to sign off on the deal? 
That's a tricky question, but by no means the hardest... The hardest is being asked by Texas Guard Corporal Robert E. L. Cargyle: why the heck do his bosses think that he is the one for the job?! 
One thing's for sure... Politics definitely makes for some strange bedfellows.
