Wrote a little something both for B_25 and NCMares a couple of weeks back that I'm now putting into a blog because reasons
WARNING: There's totally some micro stuff goin on

Semillion is my pal. Everyone in this project is my pal, of course, but consider this. Friendship will always mean the same thing to an individual; friendships are something different for every reason that causes the word to be plural.
During hard times, sadly, is when we speak the most. When I need kindness and intelligence from an outsider in a my life—not quite close and not distant either—Semillion is rung in the middle of the night. They are a good person. No better summary will suffice.
This is a story about taking a premise and having fun with it. To explore possibilities with exposition and craft a world behind a little scene. This story is much like art itself—the frame taken from something greater.
But from this frame, you can infer everything coming before and assume everything will follow.
Also. The ending line makes me happy.
Very happy.
Settle Down

It’s been four years since the alicorns of Equestria decided to become gigantic because they were, in Princess Celestia’s words, “bored of being small”. After a brief adjustment period, life has, for the most part, gone on as normal, but today is not a normal day. Today, Princess Cadance feels like scratching her ass with a building in the middle of Manehattan. No one can stop her from doing this, of course, but in the process she’s causing millions of bits in property damage.
This would be fine on a normal day, but again, this is not a normal day. On the other side of the city, Princess Luna is using the waters of the Horseshoe Bay to take a nice, relaxing bath. The waves that she’s causing are messing up cruise ship traffic and causing minor flooding to the nearby streets. Because she got to Manehattan first, all of the appropriate assets are currently engaged in negotiating with her.
This leaves one pony to deal with Princess Cadance: a young pegasus with a red coat named Settle Down. He’s been recently hired by an anonymous agency that works to deal with princess related matters such as this. Today is his second week on the job, and his first time on the field. Theoretically, he should be fine. His special talent is compromise, after all, so this should feel as easy as breathing.
It doesn’t feel at all like breathing. Settle’s terrified. He’s never seen an alicorn in real life. When he comes across the gargantuan princess in the department store parking lot, every inch of him is shaking in fear. He’s aware that it’s not very rational—the princesses would never hurt anypony—but Princess Cadance is just so...pink.
He lands on the roof, just in front of where Cadance is resting her forehooves that most definitely could crush him like a bug. She’s licking and sucking a green lollipop that’s perfectly proportioned to her mouth, and when Settle lands, her eyes flick down towards him. Settle backs up a few steps. For a moment, he’s completely lost sight of his training and his special talent.
Cadance tilts her head when she sees him. “Hi there. Are you here to make me leave?”
Settle stutters a couple of times before he remembers how to speak. “W-We uh, um, we can’t make you do anything.”
“Great,” says Cadance. She sucks on her lollipop especially loud. “What’s your name?”
“Settle Down. M-Ma’am. I mean, uh! Your Majesty.”
That makes her giggle, and Settle’s heart begins to race as he stares up at that huge mouth of hers. “That’s a cute name.”
Settle blinks. “Thank you, Princess. You have a nice name too. I mean, it’s, it’s like, really beautiful.”
Cadance’s tail whips to the side, causing a wind that sends a few stray pegasi off of their courses. The rest of the department store and the adjacent buildings have been evacuated, but there are always a few stupid ponies who try and travel near the titanic princesses anyway. She squints at him. “How much are they paying you for this?”
Settle Down wants to say not enough, but he just shakes his head. “That doesn’t matter, Princess. Can I ask you why you’re holding that ice cream cart?”
Cadance’s glossy eyes take their focus off of him and go to the second thing in her telekinetic field: the aforementioned ice cream cart. “I figured that I’d make this bigger after I was done with the candy, but if you want it back…”
The cart floats down to the roof, beside Settle. He gives Cadance a grin, though his legs are still quivering with fear. “Thanks, Princess! You’re really nice, you know that?”
Cadance smiles at him again, and Settle starts to feel something other than fear. His eyes stray from her face and wander to her hind legs, which are currently fitted snug with fine lingerie. He wonders what it must feel like. Soft. Probably soft. Cadance has a husband, doesn’t she? How do they…
A soft giggle snaps Settle out of his daze. He turns to Cadance, but feels a warm grip around his entire body. Cadance’s telekinetic field. She floats him to her eye level. Settle prepares himself for death.
“You wanna come home with me?” Cadance asks. Her tone is sultry. Her voice is loud enough for the entire block to hear.
Settle’s heart is going fast enough that he’s worried it’ll give out. “Um. What?”
“You’re so cute,” says Cadance. “I think me and Shiny would really like you.”
“Y-You would?” Settle asks. He isn’t sure about the protocol, here. He’s heard rumors, of course, but he’s always figured that it was simple locker room talk. What could a single stallion do with so much princess?
“You wanna find out?” Cadance purrs. “And yes. You said that out loud.”
Settle Down blushes. “If you’re offering…”
Cadance smiles, and Settle begins to sweat. He wonders if her field can feel every part of him, because if it can then—
A giggle from the giant princess tells him yes. She floats him closer.
“You wanna ride on my head or in my panties?”
Settle swallows hard. He tells her the only correct answer.

I'm not worried, I'm just a tad concern for the lucky gal/guy
