> Teacher's Pet > by Papa Bear > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Prologue > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Intro If I said I wasn't nervous, I'd be lying. I've been in this position before; standing at the doorstep of the college director's office, clenching all of my personal information within a single file, nervously taking swigs from my water bottle only to fuel the sweat that beaded spastically down my face. Lets just say, not all interviews with college directors ended good with me in the past. My name is Titus Barnaby, and I am a professional failure. I've constantly transferred from school to school since I've never settled into one place for too long. My mother was constantly working to keep me clothed with food on the table- ever since my dad walked out on us it had been extremely difficult to live. I won't bore you with all of my sappy sad past, but to cut to the chase- lets just say I never really stayed in a school long enough to learn anything permanently. The fact that I managed to pass my GED test is mind boggling. Anyhow, after I got my GED I've been scouting for the perfect college that would match my goals in life. And what do you know, nobody would accept a dumbass! So now here you find me, standing at the door of one of the most notoriously great colleges in all of Equestria: Canterlot Royal Academy. How was I even able to get within a hundred yards of this school? Well, long story short: being the only human in a world filled with magical talking anthropomorphic ponies and other mystical creatures can make you quite popular. Even though I've seen quite a few myths walking around casually, here in Equestria, I'm a living myth to them. And now, with only the fame of being a creature of mythology resting on my shoulders, I knocked nervously on the large twin doors. "Come in" I heard a deep and authoritative female voice speak from the other side. I gulped softly, and slowly opened the twin doors, revealing a rather organized office with a Victorian styled fashion of decor. There were four large bookshelves; two of them parallel from each other on each side of the desk centered in the room, and two of them placed closely together behind the desk. Each bookcase was stocked with all sorts of hardbacks with cursive font titles and what not- the usual fancy stuff you'd see in an expensive office. The room was dimly lit by a large chandelier, each candle on the large ceiling ornament glew a deep blue color, setting a very relaxing night-time atmosphere for the office. Sitting calmly behind the desk centered in the office was a tall mare, an alicorn, the tallest of ponies from what I've heard. She was indeed large, but despite her size she had a beautiful effeminate frame with an athletic build. If I were to make a guess, I'd say she's about eight feet tall- and I wouldn't blame biology for making her tower over everybody else but her sister; her vast breasts and voluptuous ass were so well proportioned, no other body but her own could retain such alluring curves. I was afraid if I got to close to her chest her tits would knock my teeth out. Moving on... The alicorn mare was Princess Luna, if I recall correctly- which makes me all the more nervous. Not only is she high authority in this college, she is the high authority throughout all of Equestria, along with her sister of course. If I screwed up, I might even get my dumbass kicked out of this entire country. Luna seemed to sense my tension, and gave off a gentle smile. "Tea?" she offered, as she began to pour into a tea cup with a lovely scented tea. "Y-Yeah, thanks" I spoke, clearing my throat, trying to make it not so obvious that I was stressed. Luna simply gave a gentle smile as she poured both me and herself a cup of tea. We both took a sip from our cups in sync with one another. After setting her tea cup down, Luna set her gaze up to me. "So, you must be the famous Titus Barnaby, hm?" Luna spoke, an amused smile purging her lips as she examined me thoroughly with her eyes. "Yes your highness" I replied, taking another nervous sip of my tea. "Tell me Mr. Barnaby, what are your intentions for joining this particular academy?" Luna inquired, grasping the folder containing all my personal information, trailing her eyes through the documents thoroughly while listening to what I have to say. "My intentions... Well" I pondered for a moment, my gaze focusing on my lap for a few moments before I looked up to meet eyes with the alicorn of night. "Go on, don't be shy" Luna encouraged. "To be honest, I never really stayed in a school long enough to discover what I want to do with my life" I began, lowering my head. "Oh?" Luna tilted her head, glancing up at me briefly from my documents. "I... I just want to find myself" I spoke quietly, causing Luna's ears to perk up. "I'm not going to lie to you, your highness. I'm not a smart guy, plain and simple. I've jumped from one school to the next, and never really settled down in one place for too long. I'd like to use the opportunities that this academy will provide me in order to pursue my calling" I explained to her, causing a look of deep thought to cross her face. "If all else fails, I can always become a Cutie-Mark Crusader" I spoke with a straight face, which only seemed to make it all the more harder for Luna to suppress a giggle threatening to boil to the surface. "From what I can tell, Mr. Barnaby, you're a wonderful young stallion. and from what I can see in your information you have unheard of potential. The only issue is, you need to pass an acceptance exam" Luna informed me, causing me to deflate just a small bit. "Oh..." I spoke, letting a sigh escape my throat. Luna seemed to notice my deflation, since she flinched ever so slightly. She thought for a moment before clearing her throat, drawing my attention. "There is something I can do for you though" she informed me, a smile purging her lips. "Really?" I asked, my eyes lighting up noticeably. "Of course there is" Luna responded, her eyes twinkling ever so slightly to my reaction. "What is it? I'll do anything to enroll- as long as I don't wind up crying and taking me shirt off" I excitedly chirruped, causing the monarch of the night to stifle a soft chortle once more. "No, nothing like that- I'm assigning you a tutor to help you prepare for the exam, you have more than three months to prepare" Luna responded, taking a drink from her tea. "This is amazing! I can't thank you enough, really!" I spoke, shaking her free hand enthusiastically. "Of course, it's the best a princess can do for one of her subjects" Luna replied, smiling warmly. I quickly released my grip on her hand, smiling sheepishly, casting her an apologetic glance. "I can't thank you enough" I spoke, sitting down in my seat, a smile spread across my face. "Your gratitude is most appreciable" Luna grinned, writing something down on a slip of paper. After a quick minute had passed, Luna handed over the slip of paper that had an address scribbled onto it and instructions on how to get to said address. After looking over the address, I reach over and shake her hand in thanks. After saying our goodbyes, I parted ways with Luna, walking out of her office and into the courtyard. I couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief once I had exited the office. Princess Luna was very kind, much more kind than I've heard from rumors. Only goes to show how unreliable rumors are. Digression aside, after taking a few calming breaths I looked down at the paper and smiled. Finally, after all the mishaps back home on Earth, I finally caught a break here in Equestria. Although I'm far from home, I have a better chance at finding myself in life here, since people actually give you a chance rather than pressure you into failure. As I walked along the sidewalks that laced the exterior of the courtyard, I constantly shifted my eyes up and down, making sure I followed the directions thoroughly so I didn't fuck up and wind up somewhere completely alternate to my destination. The directions were simple, and Luna had even drawn a map laced with magic to show if I was following the right path or not. Gotta love magic. I noticed that I was starting to approach a large building, it was too fancy to be a normal dormitory yet didn't quite seem suited to be an office building or something like that. I guess you could call it a mansion, which made my nervousness come stampeding back at full force. I just realized that I forgot to ask Luna who my tutor was. If my tutor is staying in a place like this, they must be somebody highly important! Either that or filthy rich. I swallowed a lump that was forming in my throat, nervously staring at the intimidating twelve foot twin doors to the mansion. After cooling my nerves a bit, I reached forward and knocked firmly on one of the doors. "Coming!" I heard a soft yet mature voice call from behind the door, it sounded a bit far off. "D-Don't worry, take your time!" I called back, shifting the weight on my feet nervously. Within minutes, the door knobs to the opposing twin doors began to jimmy a bit. There was no turning back now, I straightened my posture and quickly fixed my shaggy shoulder-length hair to make it look more presentable. I then cleared my throat, folding my hands together in front of me while I waited for the doors to open. After the click of disengaging a lock, the doors slowly began to open. Once the massive twin doors were finally open, my heart stopped beating. My gaze slowly trailed up the magnificent hourglass body of an alabaster alicorn dressed only in cream-colored pajamas that revealed her cleavage, her stomach, and her thighs. It was Princess motherfucking Celestia. "Oh, hello- you must be Titus, I just recieved word from Luna that you'd be here" Celestia spoke, smiling warmly, her nine foot height towering over my six foot seven stature. "I-It's nice to meet you" I replied, trying to suppress dirty thoughts. This is going to be hard... Both literally, and figuratively... > Chapter 1: Introductions > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Oh you must be Titus!" Celestia spoke, dressed in cream colored two-piece pajamas that hugged her voluptuous body in all the right places. I stood there, gawking at her- my jaw would have dropped to the ground had it not been attached to the rest of my skull. Celestia stared at me quizzically for a moment, before glancing down at her current attire. A blush spread across her muzzle and she giggled sheepishly. "Oh my, I apologize, I had only just received word from Luna that you were coming, I had no time to get dressed" Celestia explained, her ears splaying down out of embarrassment. "N-No, it's okay" I responded, trying to keep my eyes from wandering where they need not tread. "Please do come in, have a seat on the couch in the living room while I go up and get changed into something more appropriate" Celestia spoke, moving out of the way so I could come inside. "R-Right" I simply shook any wandering thoughts from my conscious, and trudged forward into the large mansion. The interior was magnificent, to sum up how beautiful and fancy everything looked; if you sold the White House at least twenty times, you still wouldn't have enough money to pay for this sort of decor and architecture. Considering that the value of this place was unfathomable, I could only imagine that magic was involved somehow- I mean of course, if magic is something casual and mundane, then of course beautiful structures like this mansion could be built and sold for way less than it's worth on Earth. Anyways, moving on... I found my way to the living room with the aid of Celestia, taking a seat on a sofa while awkwardly making occasional eye contact with the alicorn monarch before me. "I'm once again terribly sorry for my inappropriate attire, please excuse me a moment" Celestia spoke, walking away towards the staircase that leads to the second floor. As Celestia made her way up the stairs, I couldn't help but get a good view of her ass from here. By far, other than Luna's (from what I can assume from her wide hips), the best ass I've seen on a mare since the first day I was stranded here in Equestria. Of course that one mare, Fluttershy, the one that found me has a nice ass- but Celestia's ass is... Well, celestial! It was like a ripe fruit with two plump round cheeks that formed into an upside-down heart shape. As she ascended the stairs, I could see even a better angle of her bountiful behind, as well as the camel toe that ended near the area between her marehood and her taint. It jiggled, holy fuck balls did it jiggle! Every step she took up the stairs her hips swayed, making that skimpy pajama-clad ass ripple like the surface of a pond during a windy day. Part of me had a bad feeling about the days to come, and another part of me couldn't wait to savor every second of every day that will be had. Once Celestia disappeared up the stairs, I turned and began to glance around the living room, trying to find something to occupy myself with. I noticed there was a wide variety of books on a few shelves, as well as DVDs and a large flat screen TV. "This place sure is decked out..." I thought aloud, speaking quietly so my voice didn't carry too much. Suddenly my eyes fell upon a particular book resting on a shelf to the left of the couch. I narrowed my eyes at it; unlike many of the other books this one had a more binder-esque look to it, plus it didn't have a title on it. I stood up and retrieved it, discovering that it was in fact a photo album. As I looked it over, blowing some dust off it, a picture slid out from the bottom of the album and landed in front of my feet. I placed the photo album back where I found it, reaching down and plucking the photo from the hardwood surface. I looked at the back of it, it was dated back about a hundred years or so. "Damn... So they weren't lying when they said she and Luna were immortal" I spoke quietly. I damn near shat a brick when I flipped the photo over, seeing a naked Celestia lying on her side staring into the camera with soft half-lidded eyes that displayed the best kind of affection and love. She didn't look much different, her boobs and ass were the same size, only... More exposed from when I last saw them. Her mane was ruffled and unkempt, like she just had the best sex of her life only seconds ago. A warm blush flourished on her muzzle, her light alabaster coat glistened with sweat other questionable bodily fluids. Despite the obvious shocking sights to behold on the photo, the one that attracted the most attention from me was the look on her face, a look of deep passionate love and comfort... That's when I noticed something else. She had one hand outstretched, intertwined with another hand... A human hand- and a big one at that. It was undoubtedly a human man holding this camera, taking a picture of Celestia in her glowing beauty just after a great session of lovemaking, holding her hand affectionately. It was common sense to any man to take a picture of Celestia's afterglow, but that's not what's important... A human, I'm not the first human to come to Equestria! "Sorry for the wait!" Celestia called out, her footsteps approaching the top of the stairs. I jumped a bit from her sudden voice. I suppressed a yelp, and quickly tucked the photo into my back pocket. By the time Celestia had finished descending the stairs, I was sitting motionlessly in the spot on the couch where she left me. I glanced over at her, pretending to just now notice her as she walked up, a warm smile on her face. "Sorry, did I keep you waiting?" Celestia asked, a small blush touching her cheeks. "No, of course not" I replied, standing up, craning my neck just to meet her eye to eye... Sort of (her breasts are in the way). "So then, I'm glad to finally have met you. When you first came to Equestria I was dealing with all sorts of foreign affairs that I never really got the chance to greet you personally" she spoke, extending her hand. "Don't worry, I understand being a ruler of an entire country isn't exactly fun and games" I replied, displaying a friendly smile, taking her hand and shaking it. She returned the smile I gave her with her own. After we were finished greeting each other, we began to go over my profile as well as my interests for college and education, and what opportunities I could take advantage of. We went over the boring and complex things first before reviewing my personal profile. I'll admit, I'm kind of nervous; most of the interviews I've done usually ended in failure. Although logic aimed towards hope, I still had that dreaded feeling something would happen to rip that hope away in the most violent method possible. Celestia froze a bit once she reached my profile. She examined every single inch of my profile information, her eyes narrowing, an unreadable expression on her face. "Who was your father?" she asked, glancing up at me from the folder containing my info. "Oh, uh... I never knew him, he left my mom a few months after I was born" I explained, looking at her confused. "I see..." she responded, her gaze drifting off into the file. "Um, why do you ask?" I inquired curiously. "No reason really, it's just that the father slot in the parent section of the profile was blank so I just asked" she explained, casting me a small smile before returning her gaze to the paper. Celestia remained quite for the remaining time, writing down some notes on her clipboard while asking me yes-or-no questions. By the time everything was finished, it was around that time Celestia had to lower the sun to make way for Luna's moon. Watching her control the sun with her magic was a beautiful sight to behold. She looked like some Greek goddess enveloped in a golden celestial energy, increasing her beauty even more vastly than it was normally. After the sun was lowered and the moon was now high in the sky, me and Celestia watched as Luna painted the night sky like a work of art, blending colors together perfectly, making sure to keep a decent space between each star; it looked like something along the lines of Van Gogh. Once the cold air of night blew against us, me and Celestia left the upstairs balcony and returned to the center lobby that you walk into once you reach the top of the stairs. She glanced down at me, a look of deep thought stuck in her eyes. "Is something wrong?" I asked, glancing up at her, noticing her distant gaze. "What? Oh, um, no. Not at all" she replied, a blush flourishing across her muzzle. "Alright then...?" I just looked at her quizzically before yawning softly, stretching to relieve some tense muscles. "Tired?" Celestia asked, tilting her head, a small "U" shape smile purging her lips. "Yeah, it's been a long day; and considering my unpleasant history with applying to colleges, I've stressed myself to exhaustion" I yawned again, cracking my neck. "Oh, then let me show you to the room you'll be staying in!" she spoke with a smile. "Wait, what?" I looked at her confused. "You didn't know?" she asked, giving me a confused look of her own. "Know what?" I tilted my head. "You're going to be staying with me as my student, where I can teach you thoroughly in the comfort of a home we can both share!" she explained, smiling. "What about all my stuff?" I asked, tilting my head. "I'll have somepony move your stuff over here tomorrow, for now, lets get some sleep" she replied. "Oh..." I scratched the back of my head, a blush warming my cheeks. "Here, I'll show you to your room" she spoke, taking my hand, walking me throughout the halls until we reached a large door on the right at the end of the hall. "If you need me, my room is down the hall on the other side of the staircase" she explained. "Oh, okay" I glanced the direction she gestured, seeing the large twin doors that were painted a pure white color with Celestia's cutie mark embroidered on each door. "Goodnight Titus, sleep well" Celestia spoke, waving at me as she walked towards her room in the other hallway parallel from the one my room was in. I waved back, giving a small sigh as I entered the room she introduced to me. I gawked a bit at the vastness of this room, it was bigger than my entire studio apartment near the southern part of Canterlot. After I soaked the beautiful design of the room, I pulled off my clothes. I wore only my boxers now as I dive-bombed onto the bed, immediately sinking into its softness. I couldn't remember much as the shadows of slumber consumed my vision, the only thing that came to mind before I passed out was that photo of Celestia I had found. > Chapter 2: Rough Morning, Weekend Trip! > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Are you feeling better, Titus?" Celestia asked with a concerned tone, her eyes soft and fluent with worry. "I could be worse" I replied, groaning softly as Celestia used her magic to heal the damage I've sustained. Here I am, shirtless, sitting on the bed of the campus infirmary while Celestia used her healing magic on me. You're probably wondering how I wound up like this, aren't you? Well then, let me take the time to tell you about the events that lead me to this point. I had awoken about an hour or so ago. I did my usual morning routine: crawl out of bed, put something decent on, wander through the mansion until I found the kitchen in my exhausted state of mind, hydrate, eat breakfast, then head for the bathroom to take a shower. Somehow I had failed to notice Celestia making her way to my bedroom while I was in the kitchen, I'm kind of surprised she didn't hear or sense me, considering her superior senses and all. Once I had finished eating breakfast, I made my way towards my bedroom's bathroom to take a shower and wash the odor of my sweat from my body. However, when I opened the door of my bathroom, I learned quickly that somebody... Somepony, is occupying it. Celestia was only in her bra and panties, when I walked in she was pulling her panties down, revealing her bare naked ass for my eyes to burn an image into my head forever. I've already stated how godly her ass is with clothes on, just imagine her ass without anything on. The second Celestia noticed me, she shot up, letting out a shriek of surprise. Unfortunately for me, I didn't get a slap on the face. I was horrified once I saw magical energy gather up on Celestia's horn in mere nano-seconds. Before I could plead my innocence, I was suddenly met with a blast of magical energy that sent me flying across my bedroom, crashing into a wall, with magical burns covering most of my chest area. Ever since that morning incident, Celestia has been pampering me like a sickly child. Let me tell you something, as a six foot seven three-hundred pound young adult, there is nothing more embarrassing than having a nine foot tall unfathomably sexy alicorn goddess carry you across campus until we reached the infirmary. Luckily for me, not many ponies were awake and about at that time. "I'm telling you that I'm okay" I sighed, trying to assure Celestia that I wasn't going to die. "You don't understand, I blasted you with magic, its spastic nature leaves me unsure with how great the force of that magic was. I could have roasted your innards!" Celestia spoke, her look of worry was starting to make me uneasy. "Look, I feel fine- you pretty much healed me up, and the burns are almost all gone. It was a simple accident, I just need to learn how to knock" I spoke, chuckling softly. "You shouldn't have to of knocked, it was your bathroom after all..." Celestia spoke, her ears splaying back. "Oh yeah... What were you doing in my bathroom anyways?" I asked her, causing her to fiddle with her fingers, staring at her lap with a dark blush forming across her muzzle. "W-Well... My shower is out of order, so I just decided to use your shower while you were asleep. When I saw that you weren't in your bed, I decided that you were awake and had already showered. I'm so sorry, I should have told you" Celestia spoke, her ears splaying back even lower than they were. "Oh, well, that's okay I guess. I'm still here, aren't I?" I replied, a small smile forming on my lips. "Yes, you're right. I'm relieved to see you don't have any fatal injuries. I should be more careful" Celestia spoke, before hugging me closely against her chest, where my head was soon engulfed by her breasts. I blushed darkly, letting out a soft yelp as she embraced me. Good god, her tits were bigger than my head! Which is why I assume it was so easy for her cleavage to consume my entire head. My face was completely red, I was barely able to look up and make eye contact with Celestia, who stared down at me with affectionate mirth in her eyes. Then it hit me. That look in her eyes... It's the same as the look she was giving the human guy holding the picture in that photo of her- although the look she was giving me now wasn't as passionate and lewd, it was more like a look of nostalgic affection- if that's even a thing, it's just the best way I could describe it. I blushed even more, swallowing a lump in my throat that had formed from all the tension. "I'm glad that my precious subject, my precious student, isn't harmed" she spoke with a warm smile, nuzzling the crown of my head. I just gave her an awkward smile- from what I could tell from previous observation, the ponies here in Equestria are much more affectionate, and intimate, than the humans I know back on Earth. "Oh! I've got an idea!" Celestia declared, pulling away from the hug, a look of epiphany on her face. "What is it?" I asked, tilting my head. "Since it's the weekend, how about we take a trip to Ponyville and meet my old protege Twilight Sparkle and her friends?" Celestia spoke, a smile purging her lips. "You mean Princess Twilight Sparkle?" I asked, blinking. "Indeed, before she was a princess, she was my student- just like you are now!" Celestia explained, as she pulled up a holographic clipboard with her magic, writing a few things down on it with her index finger before the clipboard disappeared with a snap of a finger. "Are you sure she won't mind? I mean, don't you and Twilight have to spend most of your time behind a desk working on things?" I asked, giving her a puzzled look. "Well that's the beauty of magic, Titus" Celestia began, hugging me once more. I blushed as she embraced me once again, my head sliding into her cleavage as I stared up at her. "I can make a magical clone of myself to do most of the work for me!" Celestia explained. "Isn't that a bit irresponsible?" I asked, a smirk on my face. "It wont hurt if nobody knows~" Celestia replied, sticking out her tongue. I suddenly had a much more different view of Celestia at that moment. I thought her to have a very serious and noble-esque type personality with a tight screw in every crevice. She is the co-ruler of Equestria along with her sister Luna, she can be serious and orderly when she needs to, but she's still just a mare. I mean, she's been ruling for so many years, can anybody really blame her for wanting to let loose every now and then? After Celestia thoroughly made sure that I was okay, she walked with me back to the mansion we were staying in together. I finally got a shower, a change of clothes, and ready for the day- Celestia did the same. After Celestia ate breakfast, she wrote a letter. After she finished writing it, she enveloped it in her magic and teleported it to a location unknown to me. "I sent a message to Twilight, informing her that me and you would be dropping by to visit" Celestia said, smiling over at me. "Oh, okay" I nodded, returning her smile with a grin of my own. "Shall we be heading now?" Celestia asked, extending her hand to me. "Uh... Yeah, sure" I replied, nodding as I hesitantly took her hand. "Lets go then!" Celestia declared, taking off out the doors of the mansion, pulling me along with her. I yelped in surprise from the sudden motion, but eventually I synced my footsteps with her own. I had an awkward feeling towards Celestia, I mean yeah she has an attractive personality (and body), she's the most adored idol throughout Equestria, and she's my fuggin' teacher! However, those traits aren't what give me a strange feeling; it feels like she and I have known each other for a long time, based on how affectionate she is towards me. That could just be my imagination messing with me, I mean I'm not used to this kind of treatment, that's for sure. There was something about her that drew me to her, and it seemed to be the same on her side too. I can't really put my finger on it, so I'll just push it aside for now and focus on more important matters... Like how good Celestia's voluptuous ass looks without anything covering it. > Chapter 3: Meeting the Elements - Part 1 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- It's been about thirty minutes since me and Celestia arrived at the train station. Despite my offer to pay for the tickets, Celestia took the wheel and paid for our tickets on her own. For one of the most wealthy mares in Equestria, it shouldn't be an issue paying for train tickets. Even though she is loaded, I feel bad for not being able to pay. It's not a matter of masculine pride, it's just what I'm used to; being a gentlemen and what not. Then again the gender roles for this world are kinda reversed compared to Earth. Digression aside, Celestia had purchased high class tickets; we were seated in a private car near the front of the train. Celestia had taken a seat across from me, staring out the window blankly while I doodled absentmindedly on a sheet of paper. "It's a lovely day, isn't it?" I heard Celestia speak, so I shifted my attention to her. "Hmm? Oh yeah, it is. I thought the report said it was gonna be raining..." I responded, glancing out the window as well. "I guess even the weather reporters have their slip-ups" Celestia replied, a warm smile on her face once she and I locked eyes. "R-Right" I simply gave a nod before quickly shifting my eyes back to drawing. I couldn't put my finger on it... Whenever I made long enough eye contact with Celestia I would feel warm and bubbly inside. Her gaze always made blood rush to my face and I don't know why. Was she using some kind of magic to seduce me? No, that can't be true- she's better than that; besides, a beautiful mare like her doesn't even need magic to seduce others. Also I have reason to suspect that Celestia changed the weather plans, it's just a hunch. Either way it's not important, what's important to me is trying to figure out this strange feeling I get when Celestia gives me that kind of look. It could just be a simple look of platonic affection, just an innocent gesture of kindness, I'unno... I need to learn how to read people's eyes a bit more fluently. "Is something wrong?" Celestia asked, having suddenly appeared by my side of the booth we were seated at. I nearly jumped through the roof, startled by her sudden appearance. I glanced over at her with a light blush before purging a sheepish smile onto my lips, scratching my chin. "No, nothing's wrong- just thinking is all" I replied, playing the best poker-face I could manage. "Are you sure? Your face is a little red" she spoke with concern, before gently placing her hand on my forehead. I've seen this over-used situation play out in so many damn anime romantic comedies it's not even funny. "I-I'm sure!" I squawked, pulling my head back, smiling awkwardly as I broke a sweat. "But your forehead does seem rather warm" Celestia countered, raising a brow. "I'm a big husky guy, men like me are always warm- it's rather uncomfortable at times" I explained, bantering mindlessly to distract myself from the small gap between me and Celestia- a nine foot tall drop-dead sexy alicorn goddess... Who's also a princess. As me and Celestia continued to banter on back and forth, we both seem to grow lost in time. With what seemed like minutes, we arrived at the train station in Ponyville- where I was first discovered by that Fluttershy mare, whom I'm told is also a friend of her Highness Twilight Sparkle. I had only spend a few days, maybe a week, in this town before moving to Canterlot. The only reason I moved to Canterlot in the first place was because of the invitation I got to attend the academy with tremendous financial aid. To be honest, I am very suspicious of how I got hooked up so well. I mean, I had the shittiest of luck back on Earth. But here, here is where my luck turned around? It's all confusing, as if somebody planned this all out according to a script. Anyways, our dry banter continued back and forth for quite a while, at least until we approached the front steps of a large... Tree house? Tree library to be specific. Now, it isn't really what you would think; instead of a small little structure being built on top of the tree, it seems that somebody... Er... Somepony, carved out a tree and built a library/home with it. I never really stayed to long to see where Twilight lived, I only remained with Fluttershy since I was a bit edgy with confronting more than one anthropomorphic equine being. I wasn't in the best state of mind when I first got here. Celestia smiled over at me before approaching the front steps, knocking on the door of the large library. There was a bit of commotion inside, a few things knocking over, and a loud yelp followed by a crash. Once the commotion had finally settled, the door swung open and revealed a slightly disheveled Twilight Sparkle, who gave a sheepish smile to greet us both. "Greetings Twilight, did we catch you at a bad time?" Celestia spoke first, a warm motherly smile perched on her lips. "N-No! Not at all! I was just reorganizing a few things is all!" Twilight responded, dusting herself off, using her magic to straighten herself up rather quickly before she stepped aside, gesturing for me and Celestia to enter. "P-Please, come in!" Twilight smiled. Celestia and I gave a nod and we both entered, me following her in. As I entered, Twilight gave me an odd stare, almost as if she were sizing me up, like I was some sort of competition. I gave her a confused stare in return, conveying my obvious discomfort from her intense stare. She seemed to catch my drift, but only returned my gesture with a small smirk. The fuck is her problem? Once both me and Tia were inside, I took a seat on the couch in the living room. I noticed that there was an odd tension between me and Twilight, most of the tension was coming from her, I was just sitting here wondering why the fuck she seemed so intense. I glanced over at Tia, who appeared to have a rather mirthful glimmer in her eyes, a smile touching her delicate lips. I blushed softly, and quickly turned my gaze to the floor. "So then!" I began, clapping my hands together. "Oh right, I should prepare us some tea!" Twilight quickly declared, standing up and jogging over to the kitchen, preparing a pot of tea while throwing together a few ingredients for snacking. "Twilight used to be a student of mine, at least until she became a princess herself" Celestia explained, scooting a bit closer to me on the sofa as she gave a warm smile. "Is that so?" I replied, tilting my head a bit. "What does it take to be a princess?" I asked, looking up at her. "You must be well equipped in many ways, but the main factor that seems to be the most effective is influence. Twilight, me, and my sister Luna have lots of influence among our subjects. We've also acquired abundant experience and have studied rigorously in order to sustain or positions with politics and so on" Celestia explained. There was a whole lot more to the lecture, but my brain kinda wandered off as she spoke. "Tea's ready!" I heard Twilight speak up after a few moments of zoning out to Celestia's complex explanation. "Oh wonderful!" Celestia smiled as Twilight hovered over some tea and snacks over to us. "Thank you, Your Highness" I spoke, bowing my head respectfully. When I looked up I noticed a warm blush spreading across Twilight's muzzle. She just smiled a bit sheepishly and shook her head, chuckling softly to herself. "You need not refer to me as such, Titus. You may call me Twilight, or Ms. Sparkle if you prefer" Twilight explained, causing me to nod a bit, scratching the back of my head. "Alright-y then" I responded softly, as I lifted up my glass of tea and took a sip while occasionally nibbling on some of the snacks she prepared as well. "So then Titus, how are you adjusting to Equestrian life?" Twilight asked as she took a sip of tea. "It's going... Decent" I replied, pausing a bit, blushing at the memory of this morning's events. "Any troubles at all you'd like to talk about?" Twilight asked. "Not really, I'm not one to complain about much. This world is completely different, one of the biggest things I've noticed is that the gender role in this world is switched compared to that of Earth" I explained, causing Twilight to give me an intrigued stare. "Oh? What do you mean by that?" Celestia asked, seeming to ask the question Twilight was preparing to ask. "Well, for the longest time men were the dominant gender, in fact, there were very few female influences with politics or sports or anything like that for the longest time. Then, about sixty-five years ago women started fighting for their rights, and they achieved them. At least in American society, I think" I explained, scratching my chin. "So, males from your world prevented females from achieving more?" Twilight asked, perking a brow. "Yeah, guys can be pricks, but we've been whipped into shape quite a bit over the years" I replied, giving a small chuckle. "Whipped into shape?" Twilight tilted her head confused. "Long story" I responded, letting out a sigh as I leaned back into the sofa. "So, what are humans like?" Celestia asked, seeming to grow curious towards the topic of discussion. "We're... Complex creatures" I responded, Celestia and Twilight gave a nod, gesturing me to continue my explanation. "I could go on for hours trying to explain it, but the best short explanation I can give is that humans are complex creatures. We often don't know what we want; some people want war, others want peace. Some people want to build the world up and help everybody, and others just want to watch the world burn. Sadly, most of the world is corrupted by bad people, and it seems like it'll go on forever. In my opinion, life as a human is kinda depressing" I explained, giving a sigh as I stared up at the ceiling. "I... See" Twilight spoke, taking my explanation into deep thought. "Doesn't sound any different from regular politics here, the nobles just do a good job at covering their asses" Celestia suddenly spoke, causing both me and Twilight to twirl our heads towards her, looking at her befuddled. Celestia smirked softly, grinning at both me and Twilight's dumbfounded expressions. I expected Celestia to be a bit more... Well, princess-esque, but then again she is just a mare... A mare that has lived for over a thousand years, but a mare nonetheless. "What?" Celestia asked, giving both me and Twilight an innocent look. Just then, there came a knock at the door. All of our heads turned to look at the door. After a moment of silence, there came another knock, only this one seemed a bit more rapid than the other. "I'll just go see who that is" Twilight spoke, standing up and walking over to the front door. As soon as Twilight opened the door, there was a mass explosion of bright colors and confetti. I let out a yelp of surprise and shock, but soon my mouth and entire face was covered and muffled by a big, bubbly, perky, plump, and fleshy mass that pinned my head against the floor, knocking me off the couch, and knocking me out cold.
