Chapter Nine: All Patched Up
As I walked through the corridor following the butler aptly named ‘Jeeves’, my mind couldn't help but wander over the hills and through the gutters. Of course I expected something sweet and sultry in the following hours, but I stopped myself from thinking too much on what was to come, I find it better to let the moment proceed as it may.
I tried to start a few conversations with the Mr. Jeeves, but my roguish charm held no sway over the elderly balding man. After a few tries and being ignored each time, I found it easier to think back on the day's events, especially the kiss that Celestia and I shared. Thinking of the kiss quickly turned to thinking of dead puppies and old hags to ward off any undue excitement, just in case this was to be a platonic visit. In any case, my left arm was feeling much better due to the castles doctors and Celestia’s own attention, leaving me with some mobility, though there were still fractures throughout most of my humerus (which I did not find humorous at all) and a few more hairline fractures in a few ribs. Pondering my injuries brought forth an old familiar fury that I had been choking down for the past few days in order to build a better relationship with my favorite princess. Applejack would pay, and by my mother’s grave, would she ever regret so much as looking in my general direction. Yes, I will take my pound of flesh from that equine Cro Magnon if it’s the last thing I do on Equus, princess be damned. As my brother would say, 'Revenge is not a dish best served cold, and it is not sweet; it’s best served with a blade and tastes like copper.'
Before I could get into the nitty gritty of what exactly Applejack had coming to her, we arrived at Celestia’s private chambers. Jeeves knocked twice and awaited Celestia’s response, opening the door just a smidge to announce our arrival. Evidently we were waved in because he stood back and held the door for me to enter. Swallowing my expectations, I strode in with as much bravado as I could muster. I’m not generally a nervous fellow, but my mind had wandered through many different outcomes, and I couldn’t help but overthink every action. After taking a deep breath, I decided to stop worrying so much and examine my surroundings. What I found was not just one princess, but two. Oddly enough, Celestia’s chambers weren’t that lavish, considering it had both of the Princesses inside, mostly decked out in white and gold. It agreed with her general color scheme quite well.
“Good evening Max,” Celestia greeted, “I believe we need to have a talk. Like the mature adults I know us to be.”
“As much as I like the sound of that, maybe I can be a petulant child and you two beautiful ladies can be the adults?” I lightly jested in return. I hoped breaking the ice with a harmless joke could lift the weighty atmosphere that drenched the room. I swear, you could barely cut the tension with a blunt ax, let alone a knife.
Luna’s face twitched, Celestia sighed. I had the vaguest feeling that I was in for a long, boring, feelzy kind of conversation.
“All jokes aside, we need to discuss the, well, to be frank, animosity between you two. I’ll not stand idly by as my sister and new friend bicker like children.” Celestia brokered no disagreement though the idle angst permeating from Luna was nearly palpable.
“Sister, we are nearly four thousand years old, we do not-” Luna began.
“Wait, fucking what?” I interrupted. Four fucking thousand? I knew from my time in Twilights’ treebrary that the Equestrian calendar was analogous to the Gregorian calendar, but living for four thousand years? Ludicrous, simply ludicrous.
Luna cut me a hot glare and I was still busy being stunned
“Yes,” Luna struggled for a moment, holding back a scathing retort. “ We are old, did your studies not tell you of this? Or was it simply another thing you neglected to study?”
“Sister, the poor boy is from another world, perhaps they do not have beings such as us there.” Celestia raised an eyebrow at me and and I shook my head. “See? I’m sure he meant no slight against thee- Er, I mean, you.”
“Yeah, no offense meant your Highness, I was just surprised. Celestia and yourself don’t seem like multi millennia old beings, though I do get the impression that you could vaporize me on little more than a whim.”
Celestia rolled her eyes as she caught on to the sly compliment, and Luna seemed to accept it as a statement of fact. The tension lessened slightly as I gave some ground, but Celestia was dead set on getting everyone's feelings in the open.
“So, dear sister, why do you think you’re at odds with Max?” Celestia asked calmly
Luna cast her gaze elsewhere and studied the floor for a moment. I watched and looked between her and Celestia as the silence grew longer and longer. I eventually broke the awkward silence.
“Is it because I said I hadn’t heard much of you? Or is it because I’ve been taking some of Celestia’s attention from you?” I asked quietly.
Luna looked ready to explode, but before she could, Celestia gently placed a hand on her arm.
“Is that true sister?”
Luna cast her gaze elsewhere once more, her cheeks reddening slightly “O-Of course not, sister! This urchin just wants you to think less of us.” she hissed, turning her gaze towards me.
“I’d be at least a little annoyed if my best friend started conversing with a stranger from a strange land while neglecting me, to be fair.” I reasoned. Luna and I both looked to Celestia to find her blushing as well.
“Oh Lulu! If you felt my friendship with Max was getting out of hoof and interfering with our relationship, you should’ve told me! I would’ve made time for you, you know that!” She cried, hugging her sister. Luna hugged her back and said something I didn’t hear as I was on my way to give them that extra time they needed. I should’ve known it was jealousy that sparked Luna’s hatred of me rather than the minor slight of not knowing about her. Sadly, I can’t actually read minds, just guess at what ails the heart.
As I took my time walking back to my chambers, I couldn’t help but feel a little bit better about myself. I just helped someone for once.

The morning came in all its bullshit, leading with the perfect ray of dawn sunlight trailing its way light years just to poke me in the eyes. I awoke with a yawn and stretch, shaved, showered and dressed in comfortable dark blue denim jeans and a soft black V-neck. I had a date with the castle doctors and Celestia to heal up the final cracks in my arm and ribs so I could hopefully return to my quiet Ponyville home where Lupa and I could finally get settled into our still relatively new house. She was somewhere in the castle, but I hadn’t seen her in the past few days so I resolved to find her immediately after my visit with Celestia and the docs.
I met Celestia and Luna in the Royal Dining Hall for breakfast, but this time it was considerably less tense, though I had a feeling that Luna still didn't like me much. At least she didn’t outright insult me this time. After stuffing my face with biscuits and honey, I asked Celestia why they never served meat for any meal. I probably should’ve just thought about it on my own. The princesses both looked at me aghast once the word ‘meat’ left my mouth and I knew then I fucked up.
“How couldst thou consume another creature!?” Luna boomed. I expected Celestia to intervene but she was a little busy looking pretty thunderstruck herself.
“Uh, well where I come from it’s common practice, humans are the only sentient creatures and we’re omnivores so we eat meat. We can live without it, just curious ladies.” I meekly replied.
The Princesses gaped as i slowly chewed an apple. I couldn’t help but wonder if they’d notice if I threw a grape in one of their mouths.
Which is how I ended up in the castle gardens under the watch of guards for the rest of the day. The gardens, of course, were magnificent with flora and fauna I couldn’t name abound. Even though it should’ve been nearing fall, everything was blooming like it was spring all over again. On the bright side, I found Lupa and the rest of my injuries were healed (including a new knot on my head courtesy of Luna). Thus I spent my day meeting and greeting some of Lupa’s new friends, which included a phoenix for some odd reason. During that little meet and greet, I had plenty of time to catch up and tell my favorite personal pup all about the previous day's events, though I kind of lost track of how long we’d been in Canterlot. I thought we’d only been there for two or three days, but having spent so much of my free time wandering, writing, and plotting against Applejack and Fluttershy, I couldn’t really keep the days straight.
The Sun was falling as I was finally allowed back into the castle by the ever gracious princesses, and I was glad to be back inside for once. Spending time outside on your own accord is one thing; being put outside like a hyper child was another, though I kind of did deserve it for nearly making both of the princesses choke: Luna on a grape and Celestia on her laughter. I had dinner with the princesses again and noticed a sudden lack of small rounded fruits and couldn’t help but chuckle a little. Luna shot me a dark look that was metered by the slightest ghost of a grin and Celestia was very matronly in her disapproving look. Not one to be cowed, I started cracking jokes.
“Well, isn’t this just a grape dinner? Sorry for raisin hell earlier, I couldn’t help myself!” I punished.
“You should be ashamed Max, those puns were completely unnecessary.” Celestia groaned. Luna giggled in reply, then immediately snapped back to her stoic demeanor. She was grievously late in her reaction though and caught a withering glare from Celestia in turn.
“Oh come now, sister. Puns are perfectly acceptable in the field of comedy, even we know that!” Luna tsked
“They were a thousand years ago, Luna, these days they’re generally met with reactions like mine. Keep in mind I’ve had a few more years to tire of them than you have.” Celestia countered.
“Be that as it may, my alabaster sunrise, puns are beautiful creations, not unlike yourself.” I jested.
Celestia shook her head and we finished dinner on a cheery note. At least, Luna and I were feeling rather cheery, Sunny on the other hand? Not so much.
Celly bid me to follow come to her chambers that night once more and I rather expected another touchy feely talk. We went our separate ways for an hour or two until Jeeves came for me again, offering to guide me to her chambers once more. I politely declined as I had finally memorized most of the castle's layout, going it alone this time. I had showered and changed into more jeans but with a navy crew neck this time, just in case. I traversed the halls somewhat quickly, eager to see what just what the Princess had in store for me. Once I arrived, I knocked thrice upon her door, waiting until I heard her invite me in.
(Ctrl+f --> FTS <-- scene is over. Can’t blame ya.)
I entered the Princess's chambers to find her scantily clad in her pale white glory; her breasts covered by what seemed to be gossamer strands of satin that left just enough to the imagination. Those same strands appeared to multiply to cover her nether regions and upper thighs just to fade away to reveal her long, well toned, yet supple legs. As she lay on her canopied bed, I couldn’t help but think of the anthropomorphic goddesses of the Ancient times, inhuman yet stunningly beautiful. Now that I write, I can’t help but to realize that I found a non-human sentient being sexier than most women I’d seen before.
“Hello Max, come in. I’ve got a surprise for you” Celestia crooned.
My mouth hung agape at her majesty, and I couldn’t control my movements as I strode towards her. I was simply stunned.
“Wow Celestia, you were beautiful before, now… I don’t know how else to put it other than you are breath taking. Magnificent!” I climbed onto the edge of her bed, locking eyes with her, barely breathing.
“Always the charmer, and handsome at that.” She leaned in to kiss me, and what a wonderful kiss it was.
It was that one of a kind kiss that sends electricity through your body down to your toes, a kiss you never want to end, even if you know what’s to come will be so much better. We held the kiss for maybe a minute, maybe an hour. Neither of us was keeping track as our tongues wrestled for dominance, Her wide, flat tongue beat my considerably smaller one by a mile, but as I ran my hands through her effervescent mane and held her closer, she sighed, breaking our kiss for but a moment to draw breath. Taking the initiative, I wrapped my arm around her waist and drew a line down the nape of her neck, eliciting an enticing moan as I reached the top of her breasts, only to halt and begin again in reverse, this time beginning from her ample bosom up to her jawline, ending with another smouldering kiss that lasted a lifetime.
It was then that she asserted her sovereignty and pushed me back onto her lush bed, stripping me expeditiously of my shirt and pants with magic, stroking my chest painted in scars with her soft, flocculent hands. She felt her way around the ridges and furrows that crossed my flesh until she met my obviously erect member and grinned.
“I was worried for a moment that you’d be smaller than a stallion; I suppose I should’ve just asked but the surprise was well worth it. You certainly have an interesting shape.” She smiled once more and positioned herself over my lower half, tugging my boxers down with her own hands instead of magic. Celestia freed me of my confinements and held my member by the shaft, giving it one long slow lick before popping my tip into her mouth.
“Oh dear lord, where I’m from we take care of a ladies needs before our own, but feel free to continue, you’re doing fantastic, love.” I murmured in response. It was absolute bliss as she enveloped my shaft with her lubricious tongue, covering the majority of my member as she began to work her magic, smoothly lifting and lowering her head, bringing me the utmost ecstasy with every bob of her angelic head. Luckily I’d had some practice with holding out, otherwise I would’ve easily would’ve given her quite the sweet surprise. As it was, I could hold out for a few more minutes.
I would’ve happily allowed her to keep going, but whatever sense of chivalry I had kicked in so I usurped control of my member from Celestia and gave her a bittersweet smile.
“From the sounds you were making, I assume you were enjoying that.” She said with confusion evident on her face.
“ As I said, my lovely princess, your needs come before mine”
I kissed her once more, happy I hadn’t given into her power just yet. I gently shifted her onto her back and began pursuing her nether regions, working my way downward from the nape of her neck once more, pausing to move the satin modicums from her twin peaks so I could graze her pert, firm nipples with my lips before licking them in circular motions, swirling around them before cresting, continuing my path downward, taking my time. By the time I had reached her navel, Celestia was already squirming lightly beneath me.
When I found nothing but satin meeting my lips, Celestia magicked her garbs away so I could gaze upon her moist nether regions. I kissed her lips gently, flicking my tongue to greet each as i avoided her slit. I caromed my lips around her pussy, sucking and licking her lips without entering her in the slightest, teasing her a bit more than I should have, but with my fears of equine genitalia assuaged (Her nether regions resembled that of a humans, much like Twilights’) I began in earnest, just as she begged me to get on with it already.
“Are you going to tease me all night, or is this apart of your plan?” She teased breathlessly
I answered by way of easing a finger into her silken folds and flicking my tongue over her exposed pearl, evoking more divine moans from the Sun goddess. Of course I had noticed the Sun tattoos on her posterior, though I deemed it unimportant at the time. Once I had found the spot that seemed to wrest more moans from the princess than any other, I supplemented another finger into her folds and slowly caressed her G-spot firmly until the intervals between her moans grew shorter and shorter. It was slow, though extremely rewarding work, her voice like ambrosia to my ears. As I brought her pleasure to a crescendo, I picked up the pace and held on for dear life as she came, her juices flowing and ebbing as she rode out her moments of bliss. I lifted my head and smiled once her orgasm subsided, licking my fingers clean of her oddly vanilla flavored juices.
“Are you ready for round two, Princess? Or should I give you a moment?” I asked coyly
“Give me a moment, I’m still sensitive” She replied
With Celestia indisposed for the moment, I decided to cuddle her, taking my place as the big spoon and toying with her breasts while she recovered. So far it had been quite the night, and I could only hope that it would get better sooner rather than later. I'd felt Celestia's tightness with my fingers and could only imagine what she would feel like once she recovered.
(Ctrl+F --> FTS←- scene is over)
We stayed like that for a few minutes, neither of us initiating the next step, allowing Celestia to bask in her afterglow. Until the door was thrown open.
“Princess Celestia?! Max?! WHAT IN THE- WHAT’S GOING ON!?” Twilight screamed from the doorway.
Celestia immediately covered herself with her sheets as I let it all hang out. She seemed dumbfounded while her student had a meltdown in the doorway.
“Well, I was having a good time ‘til you walked in, love. Who taught you manners? Don’t you know how to knock?”
