Ryoku
He groaned as the rays of sun hit his eyes. "Ugh... Morning already?" He said stretching. Feeling the unicorn still sleeping next to him, partially cuddling one of his wings, he woke her up gently. "Good morning Sparky. Rise and shine." She groaned in a similar manner and slowly opened her eyes.
"Good morning Ryoku Matoi. I'm guessing you saw Princess Luna?"
"H-how did you know that?"
"The fact that you said your name in your sleep. Wait... Did you just call me sparky?" She stared at him. Ryoku blushed a little. Crap, Luna was right. He did have feelings for her.
"Y-yeah... I think it's... Easier for me to call you that?" He shrugged a bit. She shook her head and got out of bed. Ryoku sighed and did the same.
"You know, we could have Rarity make you some new clothes. Since the ones you are wearing are probably over 1000 years old." She said, levitating his armour off the ground. All he did was nod as he put his shirt back on. "Okay. We'll get you something to eat and then we can go to Rarity's house."
~At Rarity's house.~
"Well Twilight, I must say it will be a challenge, but I will do my best. I may not know him, but if he is a friend to you he is a friend to me. Let me just get his measurements and I'll get right on it!" She said with a smile. She placed her glasses back on and pulled out a tape measure and began her work. Twilight sighed from relief.
"What now Sparky?" Ryoku questioned.
"Now we wait. But if you want you can go check her progress to see if you like it." She smiled. "And I told you, call me Twilight." She said sternly.
"Got it..." He said a little embarrassed. He slowly got up and went to where Rarity disappeared. He opened the door to find a large mess of fashion items scattering the floor. "Um... R-Rarity? You here?"
"Oh darling! I was just going to call for you. I just need to take your measurements real quick. Now, strip down."
"W-what?!" Ryoku stammered. How does she say that so seriously?!
"You can keep your undergarments on. Don't worry." She said, noticing his uneasiness. He reluctantly stripped down until he wan only in his undergarments. He shivered as a cold tape measure started moving around his body. In contrast, a sort of warm magic moved his arms and legs when they needed to.
"My my, these wings, they're even softer than those of pegasai, yet even more durable. How did this happen?"
"Just kinda born with it I guess" Ryuko replied, rubbing the back of his neck.
"So darling, I heard you call my dear friend 'sparky'. Am I correct?" Rarity questioned. Was his crush really that noticeable?
"Y-yeah. B-but it doesn't mean anything! It's just ea-" he was quickly silenced by magic.
"Sweetie, don't worry, I wasn't going to say anything like that. But since you seem to be denying it, it does make me curious." She kept him silent for a moment. She put a hoof to her chin and pondered for a moment. "Do you have feelings for Twilight?" He blushed. -Dammit! How could everyone figure out my feelings for Twilight?!-
He slouched over and gave in. "Y-yeah... I do have feelings for her. She's just, so nice and caring, even though we just met." He sighed and looked at Rarity. "What do I do? When should I tell her?"
"Just tell her when you think it's the right time. Oh, and your new clothing is finished." She said, holding up a wiking tank top and tight fitting shorts. The shorts looked like they went to about his knee. The shorts were a shade of midnight blue and the tank top was a simple black.
Wow, these look amazing. Thank you so much Rarity." He slipped on his new outfit. "They fit perfectly... Hey, how do you know how to make clothes for me?" Rarity was a pony after all, so how did know how to make humanoid clothes?
"I took a look at your old clothes and figured out how to make them. It is a part of my special talent after all." She said, showering her cutie mark of three diamonds. Ryuko laughed a little.
"I guess so. Thanks again Rarity. I'll see you soon." He said starting back down the stairs.
"See you soon darling! And I hope you and Twilight turn out well". She said causing him to blush. When he reached the bottom of the stairs Twilight turned in his direction.
"W-wow. She finished that quickly." She said.
"Yeah, so this is Ryuko Matoi? The one your brought back from stone?" A young dragon said.
"Spike, be a bit more respectful. He has been encased in stone for a few millennium after all."
"But twilight, look at him, he's not even remotely close to a pony." The second Spike said that Ryuko froze. Memories started coming back of time where people server gated agains him, assaulted him, and almost killed him because he was different.
"Yeah, but neither are you. And I think Ryuko is nice pony- er, I mean guy". Twilight responded. At least she didn't care. But all of those thoughts rushing back, it hit him hard like a ton of bricks.
He wasn't sure how the ponies in this town would react to him, but he knew that some of them would react just like the ones in his memories.
"Ready to go to the market Ryuko? I have a few errands to run and I think it would be a good experience for you to join me." Twilight said smiling. Spike however, had noticed the uneasiness in Ryuko's eyes.
"This is going to be a long day..." He muttered under his breath.
