Love Potion by lyra_lover777
Lyra chuckled softly as she trotted in front of her friends, Vinyl Scratch and Octavia Harmonica. The three ponies were making their way through the Everfree Forest, Octavia jumping and squealing adorkably at every sound and movement.
Smoke could be seen curling above the trees, and Lyra sped up her gait in intent to reach the smoke's causer in a shorter amount of time.
Octavia and Vinyl were a bit wary, and the slight awkwardness was not helping matters. The two had only met in several, short instances at one of Lyra or Bon Bon's parties.
Lyra, the little scheming matchmaker that she was, could see how perfect they were for each other, but she required a special brew to get their love up and running...
Zecora's hut soon came into view. The garish masks and oddly tinted smoke pouring out the door scared the wits out of the two, but Lyra told them to wait outside while she ventured in.
Zecora noticed the mint colored pony the second she stepped in.
"Hello Lyra, how is Guyra?"
"We're not supposed to talk about that, remember?"
"Ah, I do. Now, what can I do for you?"
"I need a love potion. Stat."
"This isn't another scheme of yours, I hope. Because if it is, my services for you are a nope."
"Nah, its just to liven up things with Bon Bon..."
"Oh, I see. Some birds and the bees?"
"That's personal."
"Never mind. I shall make your brew, starting with orange rinds."
The zebra then proceeded to quickly put together the potion in her bubbling cauldron. It was soon ready, and Zecora bottled the shimmering potion.
"Goobye. I hope you did not lie!"
"Don't worry, I didn't!"
Lyra quickly sped outside and instructed Vinyl and Octy to open their mouths.
They both did so willingly, and Lyra chucked the potion down their throats.
The two mares stared at each other for a moment before tackling each other into the bushes where smooching noises could be heard.
"Oh, fiesty..." Lyra murmured as she trotted away.
