I slowly entered Luna’s dream. She was relaxing on a beach, a drink floating next to her in her magic, an umbrella protecting her from the sun.
“…Hey.”
She smiled and looked over at me, “My Page. I got a message from Cadence.”
I nodded and settled down next to her, “On our way home.”
Luna smiled and slipped her wing around me, pulling me closer before she frowned slightly at me, “…My Page? Is something wrong?”
I shifted and hesitated for a second before I shook my head, “Don’t think so. I…” I started before I looked over and up at her, “I kissed Sunset.”
Luna frowned slightly.
Oh.
Oh crap.
Her eyes quickly widened, she must have seen my reaction and she shook her head as she smiled, “No! No, My Page! That’s not that I think you did anything wrong, it’s my sister!”
“…I’m not following,” I said and blinked at her.
Luna pouted, “This means I owe her twenty Bits. I thought for sure it would take at least until Hearts and Hooves day. She’ll be so annoying about it.”
I stared up at her for a long moment, “…Seriously? You actually bet on when I would get together with Sunny!? Not even ‘if’ I would get together with her!?”
Luna stuck her tongue out at me, “Silly Page. I have known it was coming since you two started to spend time together. Anyone that saw the two of you together could see it. Who knows you better than anypony?”
“…You do.”
“Who is the pony that almost needed to literally tell you I liked you? After dropping hints for months?”
“It was you.”
Luna smirked, “And who is the pony that you acted similarly with before you got together with her?”
“Celestia?”
Next thing I knew, I was laughing and trying to get away from her tickling, “Stop! Stop! I surrender!”
Winking out of existence, I ‘teleported’ on top of her to return the assault. Luna squeaked in surprise, squirming to get away.
I clung to her, using my wings on her sides before I finally gave up and slid off her, laying on my side on the not-sand, “Luna?”
She got her breath back and rolled to face me, “Mhhmm?”
“You really don’t have a problem with this?”
Luna scooted a bit closer and stole a small kiss, “Of course not, my silly Page. I wouldn’t have pushed for you two to get together if I did. I like Sunset Shimmer, even if I don’t know her anywhere near as well as you do, I think she is good for you. I would like to get to know her better.”
Nodding, I scooted close in turn, resting my head against her neck, “This is strange to me.”
“I know, My Page. But we’ll figure it out,” Luna said with a smile, nuzzling at my ear, “Would you like me to tell Twilight?”
I shook my head, “We’ll talk to her when we get back. This is kind of the kind of thing that should be discussed in person, My Sky.”
Luna nodded and cuddled me, slipping her wing around me, “It is indeed. I do think think I should go talk with Sunset Shimmer as well though.”
“Now?”
“She is asleep, so now would be as good a time as any,” Luna agreed and gave me a kiss before getting up and stretching her wings, “There are a couple of things we should discuss.”
I nodded and got to my hooves, “I’ll come.”
Luna gave me a playful look, “I think not. This is not the kind of talk that’s for sensitive stallion ears.”
I hesitated, ears flicking, “Uhm… oh,” and I most definitely didn’t blush.
Luna grinned and moved in to kiss me, “I’m so happy for you, My Page, I was worried you would be to stubborn for your own good.”
“I was worried I was going to break things, My Sky,” I admitted and kisses back before resting my horn against hers, “Despite what you said before… it’s not normally how things are done where I grew up.”
Nodding, Luna nuzzled, “I know. But you seem to have things well in hoof. Now, go check on some dreams or something, Sunset Shimmer and I will be busy for a couple of hours.”
With that, she turned and disappeared into a shimmering silver portal.
I dropped back onto the sand as I took over her dream, stabilizing it now that she was no longer holding it up on her own.
That went way better than I feared it mi…
I blinked and quickly looked towards the spot where Luna had disappeared… and I just realized I got outnumbered as well as outgunned.
Buck.
"That went way better than I feared it mi…
I blinked and quickly looked towards the spot where Luna had disappeared… and I just realized I got outnumbered as well as outgunned.
Buck."
Welp, buck sums it up pretty well for Page.
Poor Page. Soon to be outnumbered three to one.
Honestly I'm sad they didn't just stay really close friends, would've been more entertaining watching everyone's reaction to them NOT being an item despite being so close.
Tch, we should have gotten in on that action
Everyone who saw them together could have guessed it was coming
.... He's not wrong
Yeah, three against one
9192128
I suppose Hiver just had other plans.
...but since we're on the topic, I'd also like to express my surprise that no stallion has expressed interest in Page after becoming an Alicorn. Just an interesting side consequence of being the only male Alicorn that doesn't seem explored at all. Everyone likes to talk about reproducing with all the other female Alicorns but it also stands to reason that the special social treatment and attention the Princesses would get Page would as well, perhaps more so as he's the only one.
There was Hoity Toity that one time early on but that doesn't really count.
9192168
I personally have enough of the gay stuff happening in modern TV shows, thank you, if it DOES happen, I want it to be such a cruel rejection that you pity the poor bastard who even tried to hit on Page.
All the blatant support, and cult like following for it has actually made me dislike seeing it.
Still pissed about the Adventure Time ending that was robbed because of it.
Silly Page, Luna told you it was ok.
*Page enters Cadance's dream*
Page: *sigh* ....Hello Princess Cadance.
Princess Cadance: Well well well! If it isn't my dear friend! WELCOME TO MY LAIR! *sits on a heart-shaped throne and pets Flurry Heart like a Bond villain cat* I been waiting for this for SO LONG.
Page: ...I kissed Sunset...you were right...
Princess Cadance: What was that?
Page: I KISSED SUNSET...YOU WERE RIGHT.
Princess Cadance: HA! Never underestimate the Princess of Love dear prince! One mare down...THREE TO GO!
Page: Yes ye-----WAIT WHAT?!?!
Princess Cadance: Oh prince...my work has only BEGUN!
I kinda want to hear that conversation.
“Princess Luna! Hello!”
“Lady Shimmer. I understand things have finally come together with you and Blank Page.”
“......yes.”
“You know what this means then?”
“....yes, Princess.”
—————
Page worried at how long it’s taking steps in.
“Luna? Sunny? You still-Oh God!”
Face masks and bath robes on the two are laughing and swapping stories about Page.
“Then he tried to mount me while facing me.”
“We have that on Earth, it was called ‘missionary’.”
“Seems awkward.”
“Oh you have no idea, first time with my boyfriend there I felt entitled to strike up a conversation.”
9192276
I assume one of the three is the mare from the the Cafe he likes?
I’m really surprised by all the upset at those two getting together. It was telegraphed for miles, herds were established to be a thing in this word, and both Luna and Twilight have said that they have no issue with it.
This is still fun.
Let's see where it develops.
Time for the saucy seen where Luna makes out with Sunset.
9192437
It's because the Luna Page dynamic was the only good part of the story and it's not surprising people don't want it to be ruined.
9192293
THIS!
Indeed Page, your sacrifice shall be remembered.

I was happy with their relationship as it was, without it devolving into romance. There was simply no need for it.
9192558
Ruined, how? If you mean the story not being focused on their relationship, it hasn't been that way for a while now, and I don't see that changing regardless of Sunny and Page. If you mean the relationship being messed, then you should pay more attention to what you're reading; Luna, and everyone else, has been pushing for those two together for awhile too. I don't see your issue.
9192868
Ok, that's nice and good for you. I don't think what you feel has any bearing on the matter of how the characters feel about the situation though. Also, a lot of other fans of this story have been hoping these two would get together since the whole thing with Tirek.
9192080
Thank you for finally saying it! I do not get why so many people take issue with this. Was it absolutely necessary for them to get together? No, but neither was it necessary for Page to become an alicorn, or dozen other plot elements in this story. It's always annoying to see people complain how a story does exactly what it's been foreshadowing for so long.
9192912
Because a monogamous relationship and a polygamous relationship are two very different things. Going from Luna and Page to Luna Page and Sunset will change the relationship. That's what some us don't want. I have yet to see a harem fic that wasn't porn, favoring one of the members over the other, or have no significant change and if nothing changes then whats the point.
9192930
Just because its been foreshadowed doesn't mean its any good.
dear author,
i find your story quite enjoyable and a nice lighthearted read. Which i must say is a nice breath of fresh air from the meaty, edgy, or otherwise heavy stories i normally enjoy reading. not all stories need to tackle political issues or be grand epics even if those are general the more remembered ones. however, you sir have created something i have rarely seen and that would be such a bi-polarizing response from your readers to the point they seem ready break out the pitchforks and torches and to that all i can say is....Good job. i mean really good job there. such strong response shows just how much people care about this story you have created and i believe these hate comments should be viewed with as much pride as the ones defending your story. i cant wait to see where you take this story next. personally i am rooting for some Twi/Page conflict as i cant recall if twi was pushing Sunset/Page and twilight is just a loveable boat of insecurities but i do recall sunset say she was glad page was around to take care of twi after she was gone. anyway this have become kind of a wall of text so i am going to stop here. hope this helps whether the haters
serenely, B300mussolini
Ok I love daily updates and all...but it does make the chapters very very short. I would not be upset if it was once every two days and the chapters were a bit meatier. Just my opinion though ^^ I will love it either way keep writing gold my friend.
9193067
Especially when the execution is abysmal like this.
9193318
Yes, that's the reason I stuck around this long and tried to help Hiver. If it was a standalone story I would have dumped it entirely after the literary disaster of the end of the exercise arc, but because I cared I tried to give him advice to improve his writing and stuck around. I was ignored just like everyone else who offered constructive criticism to try to help him do a better job, and my "reward" for sticking around was more horrible writing ruining something I used to enjoy. That's why I've given this a thumbs down and moved it to my shit list, unfollowed the author, and to avoid putting others into the same trap as I fell into I've also removed the rest of the series from my publicly visible bookshelves.
9192128
True, that was very funny. But I feel like that joke had run its course. They can only use it so much before it becomes boring. This is just a logical progression in their relationship.
9192168
Yeah, I actually do see that as a possibility. Interesting thought. Maybe it'll be explored in the future?
9193060
Well, maybe this fic. won't fall into that trap. Hiver's done a pretty solid job so far with giving Luna and Sunset roughly equal amounts of screentime, so I think they'll manage.
9193530
You kidding? I love this format. I hardly have the time to read 2,500 word chapters. Short ones like these are perfect for busybodies like me.
Page. Page.
You're a stallion in Equestria.
You're always outnumbered. Time to learn how to play the hurdy-gurdy.
9206901
How exactly is this innuendo? 'cause I know it have to be.
Took you long enough to realize that
Of course
You were already outnumbered and outgunned
Is it normal to feel lost and sad after reading this chapter? As though something, a pillar of something, inside of you suddenly collapsed. With this chapter something was lost that can not come back. This being actually a good story makes it so much more awful.
This really is a good story, it is only unfortunate that to some readers one detail, and only this one detail, is the ultimate qualifier.
More mares to snuggel. Ones the foals are raining...
More hooves to care for em...
10598936
What is this depressing detail?
I'm really not against herds in MLP fics, but I still think that Page/Sunset had more of a sibling relationship than anything else.
You know I'm in the middle for this I don't mind the harem but I wasn't hoping for it either and tbh I don't even like harems for main reason the people in the harem fight over the main person and to be even more annoying they fight over and over like a bad song playing on repeat it makes them seem one dimensional and immature in my opinion at least and I hope this harem doesn't turn into that but it looks like it won't from what I seen in the story so interesting seeing people against or for the harem when your in the middle
11319093
You're new to pony herds, aren't you? :D
No worries. Things like that don't tend to happen here. They're a herding species, it comes naturally. They have this figured out, believe me.
11037191
We all preferred the sibling dianamic
9192293
What are you doing,
... The sex?
Really? What position is this anyway?
It's the missionary
Missionary? I didn't take you for the religious sort Page.
well... *squishes Luna's thighs*
I’m gonna stick around and hope that this doesn’t escalate into something that my taste can no longer enjoy. Really liked the story until now, so I’ll see how it continues and give it a chance.
Mare talk, it can be very entertaining to listen to.
The question is... Who get her foal first, Luna or Sunset?
9192293
Absolutely sexy and priceless.
Funny thing for the future
The gender ratio makes herding a necessity.
For mortals and immortal.

And than the non-pony joined
