An account of how Night Light and Twilight Velvet, parents of Shining Armor and Twilight Sparkle, got together and fell in love (and how Princess Celestia helped).
Like I said...Night Light found out just how much like a normal pony Celestia was. I wonder how he is going to keep from giving himself away. I am sure his friends will be able to see him 'glowing.' And I'm sure Twilight Velvet is not going to take that well.
Well, that was unexpected and expected at the same time. Was half-expecting Night Light to refuse on account of his feelings for Twilight. Hopefully after this he'll go and apologize to Pommel, possibly citing his "meeting" with Celestia (which will earn him the greatest brohoof of all time), and make things up with Twilight.
Fortunately it was deep enough, Celestia's spell had seen to that.
... Am I reading too far into this, or was she actually trying to get pregnant, and Twilight Sparkle is actually Celestia's daughter, and- I'll stop now. Never mind me here.
2553605 It's not explicitly explained in this fic, but biologically speaking, the only thing that actually quells estrus is literally receiving male seed. It's not simply having sex, as is commonly assumed; the female actually has to have the male ejaculate inside her to turn off that particular hormone cocktail.
wow my only thought is what must have gone through his mind when his daughter became her student or better yet when his son became captain, also if his father went through the same thing because as she said he was a pony she could trust absolutely
He had no idea if sex was always like this, or if being in heat made a mare that much more enjoyable – or if it was just because it was Princess bucking Celestia – but regardless, it was light-years beyond any solo venture.
The way this is written makes me think that Night Light's first time was with the Princess. Oh yeah, that's not going to cause any fallout later.
And this experience will lead to one of the canon matings between Twilight Velvet and Night Light, described in graphic detail, all justified because it happened at least more than twice before the show. Celestia giving pointers and such.
Imagine if this later leads to a threesome between Night light, Velvet and Celestia.
If Twilight ever finds out she lose her mind and go Nightmare pretty damn fast
As a aside there really needs to be a character tag for Twilight Velvet and another for both Night and Velvet. I've PM'd the admins a couple of times but nothing came of it.
2553939 I've mentioned that to knighty as well but haven't heard anything either. Maybe if they get more than just casual appearances in a future season we'll get tags for them.
2553961 I'm not going to get into all the nitty gritty details, but basically with animals that have an estrus cycle, it is very specifically the act of receiving a male's seed that estrus hormones react to and will shut off/balance out when they detect it. From an evolutionary standpoint, it's designed to stimulate reproduction, yes; it's a biological imperative to have sex and thus reproduce.
Ponies specifically however (in this context) are sentient, intelligent beings. They can take steps to not get pregnant if they don't want to (and Celestia says as much that she has taken all necessary precautions to avoid that). They do still HAVE an estrus cycle though.
2553605 This seems to be around the proper time frame for Shining Armor to be born, however, both Twilight and Shining are confirmed as Twilight Velvet's children. On the other hoof, the timing is also correct for the birth of Princess Cadence, just in time to be Twilight's foalsitter.
I admit, when Celestia called him to her room I was convinced she was going to tell him he needed to get with Twilight Velvet for the future of Equestria. He's going to be ruined for other mares now. Velvet is going to kill him when she finds out.
If you're going to invoke biology, I'm going to point out that horses have a 21-day estrous cycle, consisting of two weeks off, one week on, all throughout the period of midspring to midfall, with occasional spurious activations possible at any time due to variations in weather and hormones. With optimal lighting they can spend a solid third of their time in heat. Although generally being in estrus is known to trigger general impatience and distractibility, some mares are known for having a better temperament during, and in spite of having a markedly more prolonged estrus period than many animals, horses aren't known for reliable annual reproduction.
They handle it more gracefully than most animals. It's not like ferrets, who are at risk of serious injury if they don't have a mate. It's not even like cervines, who are known for a brief mating season in the autumn, though they can technically continue cycling as late as the spring. Why are cervines known for that? They're very driven when they're in season. They're dependent on having it 'turned off'. You've written ponies more like deer than horses.
Nice to see he came around to her way of thinking in the end. I was starting to worry a bit about him.

Excellent job: can't wait for more!

Night Light.....
2553218
...he CAME around, HE CAME AROUND? You just read what happened in this fic and you had to say CAME! Thank you so much for the bloody pun sir!!!!
Meanwhile, I enjoyed this for a good laugh...though Twily didnt appreicate it She's still washing her eyes out
2553379
Thank you, thank you. ::bows:: I shall accept One Internet and a for advanced punnery.
Flat.
I don't even know how to reply.
But this was hilarious! I just know this is going to cause turmoil somewhere in the near future; I just don't know how...
Like I said...Night Light found out just how much like a normal pony Celestia was. I wonder how he is going to keep from giving himself away. I am sure his friends will be able to see him 'glowing.' And I'm sure Twilight Velvet is not going to take that well.
This is a development I did not expect. Good show sir.
Well that completely blindsided me...
I guess you could say he has Grown~ into his new position encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTWK9dXl5ecwRCwCGFZitxHCKdR1hvbhwDcGII-kC5dVxvRSyPDaA

Wow. This just got intense.
WOWW oh shit
Oh thank Celestia...Night Light isn't gay after all.
Fortunately it was deep enough, Celestia's spell had seen to that.
... Am I reading too far into this, or was she actually trying to get pregnant, and Twilight Sparkle is actually Celestia's daughter, and- I'll stop now. Never mind me here.
i didn't expect that but is was simply amazing

So yeah that is what is meant by that line.
wow my only thought is what must have gone through his mind when his daughter became her student or better yet when his son became captain, also if his father went through the same thing because as she said he was a pony she could trust absolutely

I HATE Night LIght right now :/

Hurhurhur...

2553636
forgive me for sounding ignorant, but that's a bit more confusing. Is she trying to get pregnant or just trying to feel his seed?
Yeah... i expected the her asking him thing, but the clop.... yeah that surprised me.
Hawt.

2553605 Dude, Night Light and Velvet aren't even dating yet. What kind of gestation period do you think Tia has? ;)
I admit, when Celestia called him to her room I was convinced she was going to tell him he needed to get with Twilight Velvet for the future of Equestria.
He's going to be ruined for other mares now. Velvet is going to kill him when she finds out.
2554057 Her name is Twilight Velvet.
fucking brilliant
I must say, good work Night Light. You lasted far longer in that situation before taking the deal than I would have.
2554004
And that's why lesbian ponys don't work, no matter how in love they are they still need the D.
Great story. Love how hapless Night Light can be.
Would you be willing to take some constructive criticism, though?
2553636
That's why it's referred to as "quenching the fire", aye. Does kind of -have- to be smothered.
Also, this makes the whole motherly-mentor relationship Celestia has with Twilight both hilarious and awkwardly ironic.
2554397
Always.
2553636
That might make for some evil little torture methods.
2553379 It's only bloody if she's a virgin
Wow, at least now we know where Twilight Sparkle's extra magical oomph came from
Well, that was hot! And I really love this story! Why can't I like this more than once?!
2554057
I was thinking the same thing heh.
: Night light you must bang Twilight Velvet until a purple filly comes along. The fate of the world depends upon this. Good luck!
Oooooooooooooooooh, I get it now. Her majesty's secret service.
2553426
on the contrary, she's about two or so days away from being *ahem* indisposed herself...
2554752
I never thought of that until I read the comment, very clever.

Twilight Velvet is pretty kinky and apparently so is Celestia. Maybe Night Light can talk them into a threesome?
If there's one thing I love about clopfics, it's the metaphors and similes.
Twilight Velvet reaction to finding out will be awesome (that is, if she finds out).
