//------------------------------// // Chapter 1: Celebration Time // Story: TwiMacVerse Part 2: Love is a Many Splendid Pile of Crazy // by ThatBronyWithTheClipOns //------------------------------// It didn’t take long for everypony to find out that Twilight Monoceros Sparkle and Macintosh Chelmsford Apple, AKA Big Macintosh, had started dating. Of course Pinkie Pie, resident party pony, had to throw a party for them in Twilight’s library/home. TWILIGHT & BIG MACINTOSH OFFICALLY A COUPLE PARTY!!!! Complete with a song: HERE’S TO THE HAPPY COUPLE WHO WE WILL CALL TWIMAC! THEY’RE HAPPY AND IN LOVE THAT FOR SURE IS A FACT! AND WE HOPE YOU STAY TOGETHER FOREVER AND EVER AND EVER AND WE ALL ARE SUPER DUPER HAPPY THAT YOU TWO FOUND EACH OTHER AND ARE NOW EACH OTHER’S VERY SPECIAL SOMEPONIIIIIIES!!!!! “That was…interesting, Pinkie,” said Twilight. “Eeyup,” said Big Macintosh. “I didn’t have a lot of time to work in it,” said Pinkie. “Since we just found out you two were together! But I think it works well!” “We couldn’t be happier fer yah, sugar cube,” said Applejack. “Ah’m glad tah see mah brother with a good filly.” “And I’m sure it’s good to have a stallion that can keep you from getting spastic,” commented Rainbow Dash. “You have such a way with words, Rainbow Dash,” commented Rarity. “What?” asked Rainbow Dash. “We’ve known her long enough to know that she’s neurotic to the core.” “It’s ok, Rarity,” said Twilight. “I know I can be a little crazy at times. But she’s right, Big Macintosh does bring out the better in me. I hope I bring out the better in him.” “You kiddin?” said Applejack. “He works even faster than he use tah so he can get as much time with you as possible!” “Aw, that’s so sweet,” chimed in Fluttershy. “I certainly hope I can find a nice colt sometime soon,” said Rarity. “Ah know whatcha mean,” said Applejack. “Can you guys ever think about it romance?” said a smart mouthed Rainbow Dash. “Yer not interested in datin?” asked Applejack. “Well sure it would be nice to meet a nice stallion and all,” said Rainbow Dash. “So long as it’s a Pegasus who can fly nearly as fast as me!” “So you’d never date an earth pony or unicorn?” asked Fluttershy. “You kidding!” exclaimed Rainbow Dash. “Why the hay would I want to be with some colt who can’t even fly around with me!?” “Yah said the same thing when pickin’ a pet,” commented Applejack. “And yah ended up goin’ with a turtle.” “Tank is not a turtle,” said Rainbow Dash. “He’s a Tortoise! Besides, We made that helicopter doohickey for him. But I’d rather have a colt who can fly, not one who need some flying machine!” “Well never say never, Rainbow Dash,” said Twilight. “I never thought I’d fall for a farm colt. I always figured it would be with someone in the academic field.” “You mean an egghead?” asked Rainbow Dash. “I wouldn’t put it that way,” said Twilight. “But yes. Not that Big Macintosh doesn’t have his smart moments. After all he managed to express his feelings for me better than I ever could. I haven’t been this happy since the day I made friends with all of you. He never stops making me feel special.” “You’re so lucky, darling,” said Rarity. “Oh man this is so mushy!” said Rainbow Dash. “One day you’re going to meet somepony special,” said Rarity. “And when you do, you’ll get all quote unquote mushy.” “Oh please,” said Rainbow Dash. “The day I get mushy is the day you fall for somepony who isn’t some hoity toity nouveau riche elitist.” “What’s wrong with wanting to be with a high class colt?” asked Rarity. “Money won’t buy ya happiness,” said Applejack. “Maybe so,” said Rarity. “But it can certainly buy a lot of other things.” They all began to laugh a little at Rarity’s remark. They had to admit, it was pretty funny. Meanwhile, Big Macintosh was talking to other colts in the room. “So you and the egghead, eh?” commented Caramel. “Eeyup,” said Big Mac. “She is a smart little filly.” “Woulda never thought you to date a brain, Mac,” said Ace, the tennis athlete. “You always seemed more for the more shapely mares.” “Twilight has a plenty nice physique, Ace,” said a defensive Big Mac. “Sides, ah aint with her for her looks. Ah love her for who she is.” “Guess there are worse reason to date a filly,” said Ace, sensing Big Mac didn’t care for his comments. “Eeyup,” said Big Mac, knowing that Ace got the hint. “So what are you gonna do next, Mac?” asked Caramel. “Whaddya mean?” asked Big Mac. “Duh, dude,” said Ace. “Living together? Marriage? Kids? All that stuff.” “Well, ah hadn’t really thought of that,” said Big Mac. “We only just started datin.” “Betcha she’s thinking of it,” said Caramel. “Why?” asked Big Mac. “Fillies are all about that sorta thing,” said Ace. “My old lady got on me all the time about when we were gonna tie the knot. I told her you can’t keep me tied down!” “You’ve been married to Lily for three years, Ace,” said Caramel. “You do everything she tells you to do. You’re lucky she let you keep that ridiculous mustache.” “And just what do you have against the stache!?” questioned Ace. “You’re just jealous that you can’t grow such a sweet testament to colthood!” “Oh yeah,” said Caramel. “That’s it.” “I’m tellin’ yah, Mac,” started Ace. “It won’t be long that she’ll be buggin’ ya about marriage and all that filly stuff. Just you wait and see.” Big Macintosh kept his usual calm demeanor and just gave Ace a “whatever you say” look. But in the back of his mind he was starting to panic just a little. They had just started going out. Sure he’d like to get married eventually. But he didn’t think she’d want to anytime soon. He then started to think how silly it was that he was listening to Ace of all ponies. Caramel was right, Ace was married and he did everything his wife, Lily, told him to. And while he may not say it, Ace was totally in love with Lily and wouldn’t want it any other way. He liked to think he was more macho than he really was. The Party came to an end and most of the guests had left. Twilight’s friend had stayed behind to clean up some, and of course her new colt friend. “So, big brother,” began Applejack. “Are yah stayin’ here fer the night or comin’ back to the farm? Tomorrow is yer day off.” Big Macintosh began to blush a little. “Is it now?” he feigned innocence. “Ah plum forgot.” “Ah’m sure you did,” said Applejack. “Don’t matter tah me what yer plans are. Yer a grown colt. Yah can do whatever yah like. Just be careful is all.” “Ah got no idea what yer talkin’ bout, sis,” he said, still trying to act innocent. Applejack walked off laughing to herself. As they all got done cleaning, they began to leave. “Fabulous party as always, Pinky darling,” commented Rarity. “Good night dearies.” “Yeah it was cool,” said Rainbow Dash. “Night everypony.” “Least I can do for one of my super bestest friends in the whole wide world!” exclaimed Pinkie. “We should do this again sometime soon,” said Twilight. “How bout tomorrow?” said Pinkie with a huge grin. “A Twilight and Big Macintosh are Officially a Couple After Party!!!!” “Maybe not that soon, Pinkie,” said Twilight. “Lets wait just a tad longer.” “Okie dokie lokie!” said Pinkie. “Night night, sleep tight, and don’t let the parasprites bite!” “It was a lovely evening, Twilight,” said Fluttershy. “Sweet dreams.” “Welp,” began Applejack. “Spose ah’ll be gettin’ back to the farm. Yah can stay a bit longer if yah like, Big Mac.” Big Macintosh didn’t find it amusing with the insinuations Applejack was making. “That would be nice,” said Twilight. “We didn’t get a whole lot of time to each other what with all the guests.” “Eeyup,” said Big Mac. “Ah’ll be home in a little, A.J.” “Ah’m sure yah will,” she said with a sly grin. “Night ya’ll.” She closed the door behind her. “Ah can’t believe her,” began Big Mac. “Sayin all that stuff. As if we was gonna…” He got cut off by Twilight planting a deeply passionate kiss on his lips. He seemed confused for second, but it didn’t take long for him to get caught up in the moment. After a moment they pulled away. “You know,” began Twilight. “Spike is at the farm with the Cutie Mark Crusaders for a sleepover.” “That so?” said Big Mac. “Eeyup,” said Twilight with a sly smile. “We have the whole library to ourselves.” They hadn’t been dating a month yet, but Big Macintosh certainly thought about what Twilight was hinting at. But he didn’t want to rush into anything. He wanted to treat Twilight with the utmost respect a fine filly like herself deserved. “Yah sure yah wanna do this now?” he asked. “As sure as I know I love you more than all the books in this library,” said Twilight, planting another kiss on him. A cheesy line, sure, but Big Macintosh knew she being sincere. While most colts might find what she said a bit odd, Big Macintosh knew how much books meant to Twilight. So if she said she loved him more than all the books in her library (and it was a sizeable amount of books) then it must be true. “And ah love you more than all tha apples in Equestria,” Said Big Mac. “Goodness,” said Twilight. “And here I just said the books in my library. I guess I should’ve said in all of Equestria too. I guess I just caught up in the moment that I…” Big Mac raised an eyebrow at her and she stopped talking. They both walked up to her room in silence. Twilight closed the door and made sure to lock it. She didn’t want anypony to ruin the moment.
