Prompt: Wingboner
It was still strange seeing Twilight with wings. Before the Elements had done … whatever they’d done and she’d become a Princess, Twilight had been hard to read. It was always kinda hard to see what Twi was thinking, whether she was tired or just plain mad. Maybe it was growing up in Canterlot, maybe it was spending all her time with books instead of ponies, but Twilight was a mystery, even to an observant pony like Fluttershy.
But with new appendages barely under her control, Twilight had gone from a mystery to a children’s book. Her wings flapped off-beat when she was agitated, flared aggresively when she was angry, twitched when she was excited or anxious, and fluffed up when she was uncomfortable. It was adorable to watch, really, a full-grown mare acting like a little pegasus foal. And when Twilight compulsively apologized for her body’s natural, unsuppressed responses, Fluttershy’s heart melted a little.
But right now? RIght now Twilight’s wings quivered, outstretched, in a full-on display of desire. Twilight licked her lips unconsciously and craned her neck even further over, watching … Pinkie Pie? Fluttershy blinked and looked again - sure enough, Twilight’s eyes were locked onto a bouncy pink rump, just visible from behind the sales counter of Sugarcube Corner. Fluttershy glanced around rabbit-quick, noticing several pairs of eyes on their table. Her ears twitched and caught whispers and mutterings of what would soon become gossip.
“Umm… Twilight?” she mumbled, coughing politely. Twilight’s spacey smile morphed slowly into a full-out leer. “Twilight?” Fluttershy hissed again. Twilight shifted on her floor pillow and let out a low, rumbling sigh. Fluttershy nudged her in the shoulder. Twilight jumped a little and looked at her. “Twilight, wings,” she whispered, desperately pantomiming with her forelegs. Twilight squeaked and folded them down roughly before hiding her blushing muzzle in a feathery appendage. Fluttershy took another slow sip at her green tea to hide a tiny giggle. It really was adorable to watch.
