After recovering from the minor concussion Sunny gave herself from slamming her head on the table, twice, the ponies continued on with their love talk.
“Who should we pick on next?” Rainbow snickered.
“I don’t think that’s what we’re doing,” Twilight said flatly.
“Whatever,” Rainbow rolled her eyes. Then a devious idea popped into her head. “How about we talk about your love life, Twilight,” the rainbow pegasus smirked.
“W-Why me?” Twilight stuttered, surprised by the sudden call out.
“Just because,” Rainbow shrugged. The girls (and Hitch) all looked at Twilight with nods and smiles.
“Fine…” Twilight caved in. “But I don’t know where to start.”
“How about we start with Flash Sentry?” Rarity suggested, wiggling her eyebrows.
“Flash is that orange pegasus from your photo album, right?” Izzy asked.
Fluttershy nodded. “That’s him.”
“I guess we could start there,” Twilight whispered to herself. “What would you like to know about Flash and I?”
“How far have you guys gone? Have you done the dirty yet?” Pinkie asked.
“Wha- Wha- WHAT?!” Twilight yelled, her face completely reddening. Fluttershy fully sank into her chair, while a loud laugh came from Rainbow. The rest of the ponies were just sitting in silence, shocked at the sudden question. “Isn’t that a little too personal?” Twilight squeaked.
“Pinkie!” Rarity gasped. “How could you ask such a question?”
“She asked,” Pinkie shrugged.
“But to start out with something so, so, so…” Twilight stuttered, looking for the right word.
“Uncouth?” Rarity suggested
“Exactly!” Twilight nodded.
“I’m a little curious now too,” Pipp said quietly.
“We all know she’s still a virgin,” Rainbow stated bluntly, rolling her eyes. “No way an egghead like Twilight got any further than holding hooves.”
“That’s not very nice Rainbow,” Fluttershy frowned, causing the rainbow pegasus to shrug.
“I’m not a virgin…” Twilight mumbled quietly.
“I didn’t quite catch that darling,” Rarity smiled. “What did you say?”
“I said I’m not a virgin,” The purple alicron said again, still barely audible.
“A little louder sugarcube,” Applejack said.
“I said…” Twilight started with a normal volume, the other ponies nodding.“I’M NOT A VIRGIN!” Twilight shouted, her face the color of a tomato. Everypony sat in silence, pure shock written on their faces.
“Looks like somepony owes me a hundred bits,” Rarity said under her breath, a smirk forming on her face.
“No way!” Rainbow grumbled. “Please say you’re joking Twilight…”
“I’m not joking,” Twilight wore a sheepish smile. “Sorry Rainbow.”
“I’m waiting, Rainbow,” Rarity giggled.
“Fine! Here’s your money,” Rainbow growled, tossing her a bag of bits.
“Wait, you were betting on my virginity?!” Twilight shouted angrily.
“Hey it wasn’t just us!” Rainbow defended herself. “The other girls were in on it too.”
“Not cool Dashie,” Pinkie shook her head.
“No at all,” Applejack glared at Rainbow.
“I told you girls it wasn’t a good idea,” Fluttershy squeaked. The New Generation just sat in silence, watching everything unfold. It was quite the show.
“Yeah yeah, whatever,” Rainbow frowned, slumping into her chair.
“Ahem,” Rarity cleared her throat, gathering everyone’s attention. “Mind sharing about your experience?” Rarity winked at Twilight
“Do I have to?” Twilight protested. “Weren’t you the one to say it was, and I quote, ‘uncouth’?”
“Details, darling, details,” Rarity waved her hoof, dismissing that.
“Fine,” Twilight groaned. “Just know that I won’t reveal who it is for privacy sake. I don’t want you bothering him.”
“That’s fair,” Rainbow said, answering for the whole group.
“Should Hitch be in here still?” Sunny asked, looking cautiously at the stallion.
“If he wants to stay he can,” Twilight answered. “I won’t be going into too much detail and I’m sure he can handle it.”
“I am an adult after all,” Hitch shrugged.
“On with it now Twilight,” Rarity smiled.
“Alright, alright,” Twilight sighed. She was totally going to regret this later. “It was back when I was still living in Canterlot. Celestia practically kicked me out of my study, telling me to go socialize. Keep in mind that I wasn’t too keen on making friends back then.”
“But at least you are now!” Pinkie said cheerfully.
“And I’m thankful for that,” Twilight smiled at the party pony. “Although I was hesitant at first, I headed to a nearby pub.”
“Don’t tell me you did it with some stranger while you were drunk!” Rarity gasped in horror.
“No, Rarity,” Twilight rolled her eyes. “I have standards, you know.”
“O-Of course you do darling,” Rarity awkwardly smiled, avoiding Twilight’s eyes.
Twilight chuckled. “Anyways, the pub was crowded and the only seat left was at the bar. I decided that I’d have a little drink that night, thinking that it would get me out of my shell. Boy was I right.”
“What happened?” Sunny asked, intrigued.
“Well after a few drinks I got a wee bit tipsy and maybe, sort of flirted with a couple stallions,” Twilight smiled sheepishly.
Rainbow broke out laughing. “You? Flirting? No way!”
“Even I can do it if I try!” Twilight protested, frowning. “It would just take a little time and some reading. Then maybe some preparations, lists, lists for those lis-”
“We all know you can do anything if you put your mind to it,” Rarity interrupted her friend’s little tangent. “But if you wouldn’t mind, could you continue on with your story? It’s starting to get good.”
“Yes of course,” Twilight awkwardly laughed. “After flirting for a bit with some stallions, I noticed somepony I already knew! We’ll call him ‘Sen’ for now. Anyways, I decided that since I was there to have fun, I might as well have fun with someone I was familiar with.” Twilight blushed a little, rubbing the back of her neck. “And for the record, when I thought of having fun I was not thinking of sex.”
“Really? Then how did it get there?” Zipp snickered.
“Well after chatting with Sen for a bit, we decided that it was about time we got home. It was getting kind of late if I remember correctly, so he walked me to my study.” Twilight goofily grinned, making her little crush obvious.
“I take it you still somewhat have feelings for this stallion?” Rarity smirked.
“A bit,” Twilight nodded. “It’s not that he was my first though. I’ve just kind of always liked him. He’s kind of a foalhood crush I guess.”
“That’s so cute!” Izzy and Pipp cooed.
“First time we’ve heard this,” Applejack said.
“We don’t usually talk about our love lives so it just didn’t come up,” Twilight shrugged.
“That’s why we’re talking about it now,” Rarity concluded. “So we can learn even more about everypony!”
“So what happened after he took you home?” Hitch asked nonchalantly.
“What do you think happened, Hitch?” Sunny cocked an eyebrow.
“She brought him into her house and they…” Hitch stopped, his face turned tomato red, not wanting to finish it.
“I thought you were an adult,” Rainbow teased the stallion.
“Well, that’s basically the gist of it,” Twilight chuckled. “After inviting him in I offered that he stay over since it was already late. He accepted, of course, and I decided to be a little bold. Those drinks really helped.” Twilight's sheepish smile told it all. “We were just snuggling at first, but it quickly evolved into something more… intimate, to say the least. He was very gentle, and made sure I was okay with everything. He was truly a gentlecolt.”
“That sounds amazing darling,” Rarity nodded, content with the story.
“Mhm!” Pinkie agreed.
“It was alright,” Rainbow shrugged.
“To think that he got to take a future princess’ flower,” Zipp chuckled. “What a lucky guy.”
“I think I was the lucky one to have met him,” Twilight offered with a smile.
“Uhm, Twilight, If you don’t mind me asking, is the stallion you’re talking about Flash Sentry?” Fluttershy asked, causing the purple alicorn to freeze up for a little.
“What? How? No…” Twilight finally squeaked out, which was not very convincing.
“It was totally Flash,” Rainbow said flatly.
“Eeyup,” Applejack nodded.
“I’m so so sorry!” Fluttershy frantically apologized to the alicorn.
“How’d you even figure that out?” Twilight spoke from under her wings.
“Well the name ‘Sen’ is kind of similar to Sentry, so I just assumed that. Also because you said someone you were acquainted with, and you didn’t know many ponies too well back then,” Fluttershy explained.
Twilight sighed, finally calming herself down. “Well I guess I’m at fault for making it obvious. Sorry for overreacting.”
“It’s alright Twi,” Applejack assured her. “We ain’t got nothin’ against Flash. He’s a good stallion for sure.”
“Can I please plan your wedding? Foal shower? PLEASE!” Pinkie begged her friend.
“What are you talking about Pinkie!” Twilight blushed again. “Flash and I aren’t like that. I haven’t talked to him in forever.”
“Aww pooie!” Pinkie frowned, slouching into her chair.
“What’s this about a wedding and foal showers?” a sudden voice came from the teapot in the middle.
“Did that teapot just talk?” Hitch said, pointing his hoof at it.
“Why yes, yes I did,” the teapot turned to Hitch, a pair of familiar yellow eyes appearing on it. Suddenly a mouth with a singular fang sticking out popped up.
“Creepy!” Izzy chirped.
“Is that you, Discord?” Sunny asked, still not familiar with the draconequus.
“Indeed!” Discord announced, changing back to his original appearance, “It is I, Discord!”
“Welcome back Dissy!” Pinkie waved frantically at him.
“Hello to you too, Pinkie,” Discord nodded to the party pony. “Now back to my original inquiry, who is getting married and who is having a foal?” Discord looked around at the ponies around him.
“Twilight’s getting married, and she even has a foal coming!” Rainbow lied.
“Oh?” Discord looked at the princess, looking a little uneasy.. “This is news to me. Why didn’t you tell me? Now I have such little time to find you a present.”
“No one is getting married, nor is anyone having a baby!” Twilight yelled in embarrassment.
“Twi’s right,” Applejack backed her up. “Rainbow was just pullin’ your tail.”
“That’s good to hear,” Discord sighed.
“Why did you sound relieved to hear that?” Rainbow asked. Then it hit her. A devious smirk formed on her face. “Do you like Tw-”
Before she could finish, a snap was heard and her mouth suddenly disappeared from her face. “Well if you look at the time,” Discord said uneasily, looking down at his non-existent watch. “It’s time for me to have tea with Smooze!” He snapped again, disappearing while making Rainbow’s mouth appear again.
“Well that was odd,” Zipp commented.
“Indeed it was,” Hitch nodded.
“I like Discord! He’s funny,” Izzy finished.
“What were you going to say Rainbow?” Rarity eyed the pegasus, a knowing look on her face.
“Ah, it’s nothing,” Rainbow said, whistling.
“I think we all know what Rainbow was about to say,” Twilight said flatly.
“Well this got a bit awkward,” Hitch commented.
“Let’s just pretend we didn’t hear that?” Fluttershy suggested quietly.
“Eeyup,” Applejack agreed.
“Yeah lets go with that," Twilight said, nodding slowly. “I’ll make sure to talk to him later.”
“I think it’s about time we move on from Twilight,” Rarity said. “She has told us quite a lot.” The ponies all agreed. Twilight had been the one to share the most details, so it was only fair.
“Who's going next?” Izzy asked.
“How about we take a little break before moving on to somepony else? Twilight looks like she could use one,” Sunny asked everypony.
“That sounds like a wonderful idea,” Twilight sighed. “Meet back here in half an hour?” Twilight asked, already standing by the doorway. The others agreed and nodded, all going off to do their own things for a little bit.
As Twilight walked out of the room, she sighed, whispering to herself. “I’m never talking about love again with the girls again. Only with Cadence.”
