Dear Diary,
Moon Dust has convinced me to keep a diary. Yeah, even after what happened with hers. I’m smart though. I’m writing mine in an arcane ink which is only visible to authorized readers.
I don't think I’m going to write very often in these. I remember everything perfectly. So this will be more of a place to focus my thoughts. A sort of meditation aid.
That’s important for magic. Turns out it's mostly meditation. No words, unless you make up a mnemonic device to help you cast something tricky. On the upside, when Cadence started teaching me today, we learned that I’m pretty damn good with controlling fire. That seems to be my special talent, moving energy around.
This means I’ll be good with Evocation, but I still want to learn Illusion first. I need to be able to maintain my looks. Also, I’d like to tweak a few things. If I have to go to a formal dance, it would be cool to just quickly make a dress appear on me. That way I could just sit around in my underpants and chill instead of getting ready for multiple hours.
Oh yeah. Ponies don't do clothes normally. That is still weird to me. Getting kind of numb to it though.

Dear Diary,
I’m pretty bad at keeping a diary… It’s been over a month...
I forgot to record mastering the very basics of magic. Light, telekinesis, warming and cooling small things. Nothing big, nothing permanent. All just stuff I can do while concentrating.
So that’s cool.
What’s not cool is no one told me that shit was going to hit the fan so hardcore this month! The only reason I remembered to write in this thing is that whole ancient evil coming back thing happened, and scared the piss out of me. I thought they meant an enemy Warlord was going to invade, not “Oh yeah, see that pattern of craters on the moon? Those aren't craters. That’s the Sun God's ancient Nemesis, a demon made of living nightmares that possessed her sister, is going to pop in, wreck everyone’s shit, make the night last for multiple days, and then sit on your couch and demand to know just what the fuck you’re going to do about it.”
I made the right call on not fighting that. Maybe 10 years from now when I’m a proper wizard I could do something to help. Right now? Lol no…
That is some fucking Cthulhu grade cosmic horror right there...
Fortunately, somepony did help. Six actually, and they helped fucking hardcore! I kind of wish I lived in Ponyville so I could meet real life fantasy heroes. Like, literally. They unearthed an ancient arcane super weapon, stormed the old castle in the Eldritch Woods, slew the big bad guy, and saved the damsel in distress.
That’s right. They apparently killed a demon without hurting the creature it was possessing.
Damn! And the bullshit is they don’t get like a million bucks a year each for that. Though getting knighted is pretty cool I guess.
At least I did something a little heroic too. Moon Dust freaked out hardcore when the sun literally vanished from the sky. Her mom read her some creepy as fuck bedtime stories or something. I managed to keep her calm and safe feeling via cuddles. I didn’t like them much as a human, but as a pony they are nice.

Dear Diary,
Yeah yeah, it’s been… Shit! Seven months. Okay, yeah, remember to do this more. It’s not helping, but hey when I get back home I’ll have something to share with my friends.
If I get back home…
Brighter note, I started to learn Illusion magic! It’s slow going, but I’ve learned how to conjure transparent simple solid shapes in any color I want! I read all of the spellbooks I could find, naturally, but just knowing a spell doesn't mean you can cast it.
You need to forge a personal connection to the magic, and also know how to guide the variables to make the magic do as you want. So each spell you read is only about half the information. The rest you need to make yourself.
Cadence assures me it gets easier with each spell you know. She’s at the point where she can learn a new spell and cast it on her second try.
That only took her five hundred years… So yay…
-Sunset Shimmer
P.S.
Asked Cadence what it was like to live longer than normal. Apparently, she feels like she’s been in her prime for her entire life. Oh and;
HOLY FUCKING SHIT! ALL ALICORNS ARE IMMORTAL! I’M IMMORTAL! I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH INFINITE TIME!
AHHHHHHHHH!
P.P.S.
Existential crisis pushed aside by Moon Dust asking me if I wanted to go to a Nightmare Night Carnival with her. Apparently, it’s pony Halloween today! I think for a costume I’ll wrap myself in fire and make it cold and nonspreading. That’s surprisingly easy for me.
P.P.P.S.
There are O&O nerds amongst ponykind! I was recognized as a Fire Elemental! I even won the best costume prize. But it was just some big plush bunny with a witches hat and a matching cape. Like, big enough to curl up and sleep on. I gave it to Moon, she seemed to really like it.

Dear Diary,
I’m not sure, but I think last night was a date. I’m not sure how I feel about that.
-Sunset Shimmer
P.S.
Nope, apparently that’s just how she is with her best friends. Kinda sad it wasn’t a date now that I know it wasn’t one. Not too much though. Okay, a pretty good amount...
Sunset Shimmer - 1st of Chillfrost, 0 EoH (15 years ago)
Dear Diary,
Today is a pretty cool holiday. Ponies celebrate the first day of winter by having a whole flock of pegasi comes in and literally make winter happen. It was the coolest thing I've ever seen in my life!
I spent hours after they literally brought in winter practicing mimicking them with illusion magic to rewatch my memories of it. I wasn’t able to do much more than make it look like it was snowing indoors. While it sounds lame, Cadence is pretty proud of my progress seeing as how I started from absolutely nothing just a few months ago.
I think that’s a good sign that I’m starting to catch up to, say, a fifth grader. Lol!
At least Moon liked my fake snow.
-Sunset
P.S.
It’s a ‘flight’ of pegasi, not a flock. In related news, pony slaps HURT! (Note: Pony racial slurs are: Mudpony, Songbird, and… None for unicorns that anypony would tell me.)

Dear Diary,
I’m a terrible person!
There’s a pony Christmas, and I fucked it up big time. I had three weeks to know it was coming and bought Cadence and Moon Dust gifts. But ONLY them.
I had no idea how... Communal everypony here is. I barely interact with anypony else, but everyone EVERYONE got me a gift. All twenty nine of them... Even if it was only a small bag of candy.
But the worst part? They understood and forgave me for not doing the same for them…
Ponies are so much nicer than humans. I’m going to have to spend more time with everyone. And next year I’ll need to be sure to get everyone something they really like. Because most of my gifts were useful things.
God, I feel like the worst asshole at an asshole convention.
Fortunately, Cadence loved the little snow globe I had made for her. It’s surprisingly cheap to hire craftsponies to make things for you. The snow globe has a little scene of her and her coltfriend cuddling atop a snowy hill having a picnic.
She got me a semi-rare illusion spell book dealing with personal ‘body suit’ illusions. Which are what I’m using as my prosthetic. It’s pretty cool. Once I master tactile feedback with my illusions I’ll be using a lot of it!
I got Moon something I know she would like. It took a little work to find out how to tell if their historical texts are authentic or not, but I was able to get a compilation of ‘Classical Era Baked Goods’ recipe book for Moon. She’s really into recovering and modernizing older recipes.
Moon knitted me a quilt. She knitted me a motherfucking quilt! It looks like a normal patchwork quilt! You need to touch it to feel the knit! She made it from scratch! With HOOVES FOR HANDS! She’s the best friend ever! ♥

Sunset Shimmer - 22nd of Lunar Dusk, 2 EoH (15 years ago)
Dear Diary,
I’ve finally finished learning Illusion magic! To the point of a foal who finished primary school…
But that’s still pretty cool! I can finally take my memories and ‘project’ them for others as a flat image. I can’t do three-dimensional yet, but that’s fine! Sight, sound, and smell all present in one image. Behold! I have become smell-o-vision!
Cadence is fairly certain that I should be caught up within another year or two and ready to go and get an actual fucking degree! That sounds pretty fucking sweet!
I um… I sort of used this to see my old friends again. I had the idea to try and draw them as ponies. Regardless Moon Dust walked into my room while I was doing it.
So yeah, had to fill her in completely. Cadence doesn't know yet. I’m not sure we’ll tell her. I don’t want Moon getting into trouble. She’s too fluffy to be in trouble. Also, I’d miss her hot cocoa.
On a related note, my room now has a bar lock for the door. No more random ponies walking in. Especially not while I play back movies for Moon and I to watch.
-Sunset
P.S.
The pony Calendar is confusing. They apparently change the ‘zero date’ on any major important event. After Princess Luna was freed last year, everypony started calling it ‘the Zeroth Year of the Era of Harmony’ but it was actually the thousandth year of the Solar Era, and for whatever reason the official date keeping method is actually to set the previous era’s prior year and the current era’s current year as the 0 EoH, making the year I just lived through the 1 EoH.
Apparently, everypony knew about the 0th year (used for record keeping management apparently) but didn’t know how it was implemented because nopony has lived through one in a thousand years. So I have been writing the date wrong this whole time. It’s the 2nd year of the Era, not the 1st.
Stupid count from zero method… Organic lifeforms are not computers! There is never a reason to start a count with zero!
Side note: This universe's Twilight is just as geeky as mine. She got so irritated at everyone doing the date wrong she went on national radio to give a three-hour lecture on the history behind the Era system and what year it currently was.
Moon and I skipped out after 4 minutes to go play O&O. It’s way cooler when as an actual mage IRL, I can just make terrain appear at will. Never used to like DMing before.
Sunset Shimmer - 18th of Megan, 2 EoH (15 years ago)
Dear Diary,
Hard day today. I’ve been here for a full year now. I think Cadence knew I’d be having a hard time today. Unfortunately, she was called into Canterlot for political stuff. Which meant that as her Chambermaid I had to go with her.
I’ve gone to other cities with her before, but never Canterlot. She would leave me at home. Unfortunately, she couldn’t this time. There was some sort of big fancy ass party thing and as her Chambermaid, I would be expected to attend.
Stupid fucking Grand Galloping Gala… Your name is dumb and you should feel dumb!
The stupid thing is, that I’ll have to come BACK here next month for Cadence’s wedding. At least that will leave me with something to be distracted by. Cadence and Shining make a great couple, adorable as hell to watch.
I thought that since Shining Armor was a Commander that he would be all tough and manly and hard-boiled military warrior poet!
Lol, nope! He’s a total geek, but the fun kind. He found Moon, Amber, Breeze, and I playing O&O when he came for a visit, forgot he was there to visit his marefriend and rolled up a Paladin. "Hey, girls! Where's Cadie at- Oh Cool! Is that Ravenloft? What level are we playing?"
Cadence came down and played too after a while, but she’s not fun to play with. She’ll sit there and argue that a certain kind of strike with a given weapon should kill outright rather than knock down hit points a bit… (But I can’t blame her too much, she did grow up using a pike and a rapier.)
Aside from being a total geek, he’s also mega girly. Not like, gay. But definitely, acts like an actual girl. Not a stereotype. Then paired with Cadence’s more guy-ish personality they make a fun pair to be around thanks to their inverted rolls. It makes me smile.

Sunset Shimmer - 10th of Plantation, 2 EoH (15 years ago)
Dear Diary,
I am starting to learn martial arts. I can completely understand why lots of people like guns. Never did before, but now that I’ve literally been in the middle of a fucking drop pod launched assault, by what might as fucking well have been Traitor Marines… Yeah, weapon skill needed.
By martial arts, I don’t mean like, how to punch people. No, fuck that. Ponies still use actual martial arts. Enchanted armor sometimes needs a good hand tool to crack open. So I’m learning how to use a warhammer and shield.
Apparently, ponies can stand up and walk biped style, it’s just a thing you need to practice and not really comfortable for long periods. At least I know why they make weapons which make no sense at all for a quadruped to use now.
Since Queen Chrysalis wasn’t killed, I’m going to be seeing what spells if any can detect changeling magic. This isn’t happening to her again. Maybe I can find a friendly changeling to let me watch them shift until I can tell what their aura’s look like.
-Sunset
P.S.
Only writing this down because of the arcane ink.
Turns out that Cadence knew changelings existed prior to the invasion. Because she grew up as ‘livestock’ in a changeling hive. That sounds terrible, but it’s not. It just means your job is creating positive emotional energy for your bug friends to eat, and they pay you in food, shelter, and security.
And while it might seem a bit racist, their coloration does tell you where they are from. Or at least, what hive they were born and raised in. Because their coloring is like ant coloring. Meaning we really only need to watch out for dark blue ones. Because that’s the hive which attacked.
She gave us all a really long lecture on how Chrysalis is not typical of a changeling Queen, nor were her followers normal for the species. Not that all hives are pacifists, but rather they don’t normally go and openly assault places. Instead they prefer stealth, and while they will take ponies to their hives, they normally only take volunteers.
She proved that they are peaceful by well, asking one to demorph. Turns out the maid Lemon Grass is a changeling, a green one. She is literally the single most kind and caring pony I know, and always goes out of her way to make other’s happy. Which means she’s a typical changeling. That’s how they are.
Because they eat love. Literally. They consume emotional energy. And to quote Lemon, “Hurting a pony is like cutting down an apple tree to get at the apples. You always make more love, meaning more food later. Your hate is poisonous to eat. None of us will hurt anypony if we don't need to, to protect ourselves.”
So yeah. Not a hostile species. They were just a warring group. Who are probably insane.
The sad thing is, that Chrysalis apparently learned of the wedding by intercepting an invitation Cadence had sent to her old hive’s Queen, hoping to see her again after the half millennia. They used to be best friends.
P.P.S.
Apparently changelings can shapeshift into literally anything they like within a certain size range. Lemon just became a lot more popular with everypony here. I wonder if she can get fat from being over stuffed?
Sunset Shimmer - 13th of Midsummer, 2 EoH (15 years ago)
Dear Diary,
I have named this year, “Year of Serious Shit Going Down”. Because motherfucking Sauron bamfped back into reality after a long ass vacation. Okay, not literally… But ancient evil dark lord who has a big pointy tower and manifests as a cloud of energy seeking an artifact to reconstitute themselves. That’s totally Sauron.
He got his ass exploded. Long with everything else.
I wasn’t there when it happened, but Cadence struck the final blow along with some help from a baby dragon, that Twilight raised apparently. Because she did all of the hard work by all accounts.
Apparently Twilight and this world’s versions of my old friends are the motherfucking Companions of the Hall! Not that anyone here has read a Salvadore novel… Also, I think any universe's Rarity would slap me for thinking of her as Wulfgar.
I miss people getting my references.
Upside, Cadence dibbsed the spoils for her pet project of Kinksville. I don’t care what she wants to call it. That’s its name as far as I’m concerned. The concept used to squick me a bit, but after a year and a half or so of living here… Eh, not so much.

Dear Diary,
Everypony is getting ready to move from Cadence’s Estate to the Crystal Spire. It’s apparently safe now, and aside from the renovations Cadence has planned it’s okay to move into. Also, Celestia wants to show the nation that the place is safe and show the ‘spoils’ off to their nations so she’s decided that the ‘Crystal Empire’ will host their version of the Olympics.
It’s only a nationwide competition between Equestria’s provinces, but it still sounds really cool! I wanted to compete but I realized they don’t do Motorcross here…
Anyways, we have about a year to get this place from ‘Shabby primitive village around a tower’ to something that’s respectable to look at.
Well, I say we… But I’ll be in Trottingham for most of the time. Cadence got a teleport grid setup for getting construction supplies to the Spire (until a rail line can be built because teleporting things is really energy intensive). Which means I can start getting a degree as an Illusionist. Because apparently I’m all caught up for magic in terms of my age!
I get to start college on my birthday!
Speaking of my birthday, I finally took Moon Dust up on that offer of using her as a pillow. Mostly because she kept pestering me to snuggle. I am now convinced she’s actually a golem made of memory foam and essence of softness. That isn't fat. It's downy stuffing!

Sunset Shimmer - 25th of Lunar Dusk, 2 EoH (15 years ago)
Dear Diary,
HAHA! I remembered to get EVERYPONY something this time! Victory! Victory for Sunset!
And for the loss to accompany the victory, everypony saved up what they would have spent on me, pooled it, and dragged me to Trottingham… To an adult store. Because somepony realized that, A) I’m legally allowed to go to one now, B) none of them knew what I was into, and C) Moon told them I didn’t have any toys.
Traitor!
Anywho, all of the staff know what I’m into now and it’s super embarrassing… But I think I’m starting to understand Cadence’s entire goal. It would be really cool if I didn’t have to be embarrassed that others knew. A place where nopony judged you, and a culture where sex would be just another hobby to talk about, does have it’s appeal.
Also, potions are sex toys here. Which makes sense when you have a magical society. What surprised me is how extensive the things the potions can do are. I mean, it makes sense to have a potion of ‘endurance’, but I did not expect things like the ‘potion of elasticity’. And then there were temporary mutations for all kinds of things up to and including changing your sex!
I might have to try a few out sometime. I need a new thing. I don’t exactly like being restrained anymore and vanilla is boring.
-Sunset
P.S.
Training goes well. I’ve gotten to be okay enough to start freeform sparring with some of Cadence’s more crappy guards.
I've also been flying through Trottingham University’s illusion program. Ponies don't base college on years, but on the work you finish. At this rate, I should have a degree inside of another few months!
Sunset Shimmer - 23rd of First Bloom, 3 EoH (14 years ago)
Dear Diary,
I got referred by the Dean to the Mage’s Library. I thought that meant I got special access to books. NOPE! It means I did well enough to be considered a genius, and therefore get to join like, the foremost wizard school on Equis. Or at least the oldest.
If I pass the entrance exam at least. Which funnily enough is just the process for getting a library card. They wound up making what amounts to a secondary education degree worth of tests to make sure that only people who should handle their books and artifacts get access.
Over the years that became a proper education program.
It will be cool if I get in, because I can already do a lot of cool shit. I’ve finally been able to make a bodysuit as convincing as Cadence can, so I can upkeep myself now! And trying out new looks is really fun!
It’s also super fun to use that with my friends. Forget just making the game table’s terrain and animating everypony’s figures and the monsters, attacks and all that! Now everypony can be ‘in costume’ while playing. Roleplaying improves a LOT when everyone’s dressed up.
For Moon’s birthday today, I made her fur look and feel like a latex skin for a few hours. And I FINALLY understand why she likes that. She literally becomes a smooth, super soft thing you want to cuddle the shit out of. Like a literal plush pony. I think her actual kink is provoking others into snuggles by being irresistibly cuddly.
I’m down for that >.>

Calmare Manner - Equestria
“Sunset!” Moon exclaimed in mock indignation. “This ink is only half dry! Did you just write down every last one of these diary entries except the first one?”
I coughed into my hoof. “Um, maybe?”
“This is three entire years of entries!” She protested holding up my diary with a pouty expression. “What about all of the memories? You can’t possibly remember them all.”
“I do,” I sighed. “I remember every last word ever said to me, and can cross reference them by date, and time too, if I happen to know what time it was when the speaker was talking… I don’t forget things.
“I mean, sure, stuff slips my mind. I may not remember something right at a given moment, but if I try to recall anything I have ever known, I’ll remember it.
“I’m mostly keeping this thing because having a written record is good if I want to tell others my own story. And since I can remember exactly how I felt on a given day well… I just sort of made up each entry as it would have been.”
“What’s the first thing I said to you and when?” Moon asked with a suspicious glare.
I hummed and rested my chin on my hoof for a moment letting myself ‘rewind’.
“The first thing you said to me was ‘Who's there!? I’m just delivering her highness’s breakfast.’ and you said it at around ten in the morning on the nineteenth of Megan, in the year one thousand of the Solar Era,” I reported. “Huh, that’s almost exactly three years ago now.”
Moon shook her head incredulously, her peach mane going all floofy with her motion. “I’ll never understand how you can do that.”
I shrugged. “Well hey, doctors back home couldn’t explain it either. So don’t worry about it.”
Moon nodded and then flipped through my diary entries, reading through them at a fairly quick pace. I’d asked her to tell me how good my writing was. I was a bit embarrassed to show it to anypony else…
“W-Wait! You were sad that we didn’t have a date that Nightmare Night?” She asked with a frown.
“Yes, a little. I was not really… Stable back then. Emotional roller coaster and whatnot,” I explained.
Please don’t ask if-
“Want to actually go on a date this Nightmare Night?” Moon asked playfully.
Or maybe seriously? Her tone was hard to decipher.
“Aren't you like, fifty? I mean, you’re a few decades older than me,” I said, hoping to use her reaction as a gauge to understand.
Moon’s face pulled to the left in a gesture both hurt and confused. “So what? Lots of couples have age gaps of a full century. What’s a few decades?” She demanded.
Oh! So she did like me! I smiled as a few butterflies danced in my stomach.
“Wait, you’re happy after I said that?” Moon asked, her eyes softened in understanding. “Oh, I see! That was a test. You could have just asked you silly filly. Yes. I like you. Y-you’re just really nice and I like spending time with you.”
Goddamn it! I swear she intentionally stuttered sometimes just to be adorable... It worked.
“I like you too,” I admitted with a smile. “Though, that age gap is a thing for me. You have a lot more life experience than I do. Are you sure you want a brand new adult in your life?”
Moon laughed, and nuzzled my left cheek in a way I wouldn’t believe was just ‘a thing friends do’ three years ago. (Ponies are way more affectionate than a human would ever assume.)
“You’re already in my life, silly! Sure you do a few ‘young pony’ things still, but you’ll grow and mature. Hopefully not too much, though!” She giggled happily. “I wouldn’t mind adding ‘adult fun’ to the list of things we do together.”
I tilted my head to one side, frowning slightly. “Wait, you just want to be friends with benefits?” I asked.
I felt my heart sink a little. I wanted more than that!
Moon raised an eyebrow. “Sun, I was being coy… As long as we have an open relationship, I would love to be your marefriend,” she said with a smile.
“Why open?” I asked. I wasn’t upset, just curious, and it carried in my tone.
“W-well… I sort of disagree with the idea of sexual monogamy being good,” she admitted. “If I demanded you be attracted to me and only me, that’s kind of selfish. If I really loved you I would be okay with you doing anything you liked, and trust you to always come back to our bed at night and love me just as much as you always have. Or invite me along if you think I’d have fun too!”
“Huh,” I mused frowning in thought. “You know, I’ve never heard anyone put it like that before… I can see your point, but I still like the idea of someone being there for me. You know?”
“So do I,” Moon agreed with a happy blush. “But how does agreeing that sex with others is okay change that?”
“It just feels a bit odd,” I admitted, ears drooping. “Do you like anyone else here? Is that the problem?”
“Not yet,” she admitted, ears drooping slightly. “But I probably will one day… And I-I love you right now. I don’t want some stupid decision I make some day to break us apart. I’d like to spend years with you as a family… And It’s conceivable that one day you might find somepony else you like too. Or have a few drinks one day and have a little fun with say, Lemon Grass-”
“Lemon Grass!?” I objected with a laugh. “Why Lemon Grass?”
“First name I thought of when I thought about a pony here who drinks,” Moon said with a bashful grin. “Um, my point is if we have an open relationship, and it’s okay for each of us to have sex outside of with each other, but NOT to date anypony else-”
“Oh!” I said smiling immediately. “That’s different! I thought you just wanted well, friendship plus screwing.”
“No! I just want it to be okay to have a little fun with other ponies is all. That way we won't feel well… Cheated. But no dates, romantic gestures for, or sleeping with them, and I mean literal sleeping. Romance is for us only,” she declared with an uncharacteristically steely tone in her voice.
I frowned, squirming slightly as I thought it over. I did like her, she was fun, we got along great but… Was that enough to base a relationship around? No.
I sighed, tail and ears drooping. “I’m sorry, Moon… But humans need a certain level of exclusivity. And sex is kind of a big deal for us.”
“W-well what if we reserve one thing for just us each?” Moon proposed fearfully. “Like um… Only you get to drink from ‘the tap’?”
My ears perked at her suggestion. I’d actually gone to a dairy farm a few years ago, and sure enough, cows were people. Just people who lived in a very young civilization which had only produced stone age technology before ponies integrated into their nation a thousand years ago.
Amazingly, the Cows kept their culture intact. The ponies simply protected them in exchange for milk because bovine food caught on with the young Equestria and all of it uses milk. Overall the ‘farm’ had reminded me of an Indian reservation but without the suck.
After learning that, I’d been comfortable with Moon enjoying herself. Especially since hers was way better tasting than store bought brands. Eating or drinking it wasn’t a sexual thing at all, it was basically just like having a cow for a friend. That was a paradigm shift to make, but I’d made it.
On the other hand, actually nursing from Moon would DEFINITELY be sexual. And also pretty fucking hot… I’d seen how she twitched and cooed happily from a pump. A mouth would definitely feel better. Yes.
“That would definitely work,” I admitted with a shy blush.
“Yay!” Moon exclaimed happily darting forwards to wrap me in a tight hug. “Sooo what do I get to do with you that nopony else can?”
Oh shit! That’s right I had to be fair. And that meant picking something I liked as much as she liked milk.
Putting some thought into it and cleared my throat. “Uh, well, I used to be into bondage buuuut yeah… I’m still looking for new things. Though, I have been having a lot of fun with elastic potions and seeing what can fit,” I admitted, blushing a deep red.
“Oh! So you like bigger toys, or lots at once? I used to enjoy that sort of thing before… W-well you know,” Moon giggled, but her eyes flashed sadly.
I did know. But I didn’t want to think about how her foal died exactly right now. Guh, too late! How can it even get going sideway to get stuck?
“Yeah, I do,” I agreed quickly. “Mostly because those portions fascinate me. I wonder if you could brew one strong enough to actually get someone's head in there.”
“Now that I think about it, that does sounds fun! Can I have that?” Moon asked lovingly, gently mushing her plump belly against my left flank.
“S-sure!” I stammered awkwardly. “I mean if we can find a potion good enough, and somepony else to show us how to safely-”
Moon laughed. “Stuffing things into you in general, silly!”
“Oh! Yes,” I agreed with a laugh. “So… We’re marefriends now?”
Moon shook her head and leaned in to kiss me. I met her halfway, expecting a sloppy french kiss. Instead, she gave me a simple tender loving kiss then hugged me tightly to herself.
I sank into her like a mattress. It was awesome!
“Now we are,” She sighed happily before letting go of me.
“I guess I should move my things into your room. Or do you want to move into mine?” I asked.
“Your room is bigger,” Moon decided after a second of thought. “Oh um, slightly personal question… I’ve always been a plump filly, but um, this is as low as I can get. S-Sort of been dieting for years to slim down and catch someone's eye… W-would you mind if I ate how I like?”
I frowned. “There aren't’ any health risks, are there?”
Moon’s cheeks brightened with a pink blush. “Oh no! I can’t get more than about twice as chubby as this depth wise. Actually fat or obese is just something my body won't do. I’ve tried, because apparently, a high BMI improves milk flavor. My metabolism is weird… I’ll sort of just stay there if I stop skipping everything but breakfast and tea.”
Honestly, I liked her plumpness. I never thought I would be into that kind of girl, none of the ones back home had been on my ‘team’ so I never considered it.
“Love, stop skipping meals, that’s bad,” I scolded. “I’m sure you’ll look lovely like-”
I focused on my magic, quickly forming a spell to cast an illusion on her to see what she would look like.
“- uhhhhh…” I trailed off as my spell took effect.
Moon’s ears drooped morosely. “I-I’m not too heavy for you, am I?” She asked with a sad whimper.
She looked like a plushie! An adorable pony shaped plushie! All the extra weight did was make her look fluffier.
“Never skip meals again!” I said, canceling my spell and pulling her in for another kiss with my forelegs
My bedroom door burst open! The familiar silhouette of Cadence filling the doorway as if fired into it from a shotgun.
“Sunset! I have new- Awwwwww!” Cadence urgent exclamation turned into a loving coo the second she caught the two of us with her held in my ‘arms’.
“You guys finally got together! Yay!” Cadence giggled happily while the two of us blushed.
To my amazement slash horror, she zipped over to the two of us and picked us up in a bear hug before plopping us back down!
Awkward levels maximum! HELP!
“It’s just like I imagined!” She beamed lovingly. “You’re an adorable coup- oh…”
“Oh? What’s ‘oh?’” I asked, frowning as I took in her tonal whiplash from elated to devastated.
Cadence’s ears fell sadly. “T-this isn’t the best time…”
“No, what is it?” Moon asked with equal fear and curiosity as me.
Cadence sighed and scuffed the floor with one hoof. “Well… It’s been three years. The po- Um, Sunset can go home if she wants.”
The portal? Oh! Oh… I felt my guts twist into an uncomfortable knot.
“She knows,” I admitted at last.
Cadence’s eyes softened. “I figured she would by now.”
Moon looked pleadingly into my eyes. I could see it, she needed me to stay with her. Maybe she would come with me if I asked?
Then, like a bolt of lightning from a clear sky, the fact of the matter hit me.
“Why would I go to a world where I’m NOT a wizard with a sexy girlfriend?” I asked myself aloud.
“Well, it’s your home. You have to miss a few people. I know it’s been a long time but are you really attached to this world so much that you’d abandon your own?” Cadence asked quizzically.
A good question. I pursed my lips in thought. Mulling over each factor until I had a satisfying answer.
“Well, let’s see. Back home I was a teen just starting to work out my life. In the last three years here, I’ve learned fucking magic. Gotten a pretty good job, have a home of my own, and am three tests away from gaining access to a prestigious community of Wizards,” I said decisively. “I didn’t really have a life back home. I had a family, and friends, but not a life of my own. Not really. If I go home, I’ve lost the life I’ve made for myself… And while I still would like to punch the other me in her teeth, I don’t think I need to do that.”
Moon hugged me tightly. “Thank you… Um, but… You should probably go visit your friends and your parents.”
I returned her hug and nodded. “I probably should,” I agreed.
Cadence hummed. “That could be difficult. Celestia has sent Twilight through the mirror to search for your counterpart. And the mirror has been moved into her throne room so it can be watched safely while it’s open. I could sneak you in without a problem. But coming back… The spell would stop working on the other side and you would be visible when you returned.”
Fuck!
“Well, I guess I’ll just wait another three years to visit home, then,” I decided.
“Are you sure you’ll be fine what that?” Cadence asked hesitantly.
I nodded and gave Moon a loving kiss. “I have a great pillow, I’ll be okay,” I said affectionately.
“Alright. If you change your mind, let me know,” Cadence said with an oddly relieved voice. “Now… Would you two like some privacy, or can I watch?” She asked mischievously.
I immediately blushed a deep shade of pink.
“M-maybe some other time,” I stammered.
Cadence grinned and gave the two of us a wink. “Just playing, girls. You two have fun! Let me know if you need a bigger bed in here and I’ll see what I can do,” she offered as she left the room, closing the door behind her gently.
“Not in the mood anymore?” Moon asked me awkwardly.
“Not really…” I confirmed. “I could still go for snuggles though. And then lunch. You need to start eating lunch. And dinner.”
“And you?” Moon teased.
“Also, yes,” I giggled.
I gently pulled her onto my bed, and snuggled up against her side, resting my head on her shoulder. “Now be a good pillow and pull that blanket over us, sexy.”
I mmmed happily as she pulled the quilt she’d made me years ago over the two of us. Yeah, I’d have to be brain damaged to want to leave this behind.
I had a great life for myself here. I wasn't about to just up and leave.
