Okay, these last two chapters may have worked better the other way around, not that it matters much. One question I have though is, WHY WOULD FLUTTERSHY DREAM THAT!? Seriously, that isn't like her at all. How does she even look Pinkie in the eye after having dreams like that?
6561911 Funnily enough, they were originally going to be the other way around, and they were going to be two parts of the same chapter. There was going to be a third part as well, though, and I felt the combined chapter was just getting too long. When I split and re-ordered them, I wasn't entirely happy with the result, but I was starting to feel that if I spent any more time working on them then this story would just slip into an indefinite hiatus, along with all my other unfinished projects. So I may have rushed them a little, just to try and keep my momentum going.
As for Fluttershy's behaviour, I dunno. I suppose most of the characters in this story have been/will be acting more-or-less out-of-character, and to some extent you can blame that on the Incubus's influence, but I'm also of the view that a person's deepest/darkest/weirdest sexual kinks/fetishes tend to be quite different from the personality we see on the surface. We aren't in control of our own subconscious minds, after all, and it's not that uncommon for dreams to reflect desires that we weren't even aware we had, and may well be disgusted by when we wake up. So, this is maybe the sort of scenario Fluttershy would never consider fantasising about while she was awake, but that doesn't mean the desire isn't there within her somewhere. She isn't choosing to dream about this, she just is. Everyone has a "dark side", which may contain (among other things), fear, anger, self-loathing, aggression, and petty vindictiveness.
Though, maybe that's just down to my interpretation of her character. (Also, I think Fluttershy has trouble looking her friends in the eye anyway)
6562036 Hmm, okay, fair enough. Rarity seemed quite disgusted at her behaviour once Luna snapped her out of it so I guess that consistent. I've always thought of dreams as more random than that though, but I guess they could represent a twisted version of some desire. I'm sure Fluttershy wishes she could be more confident. I'm also sure that at times she finds Pinkie annoying (c'mon who doesn't?). All that combined with possibly being jealous of Pinkie for her confidence could result in a dream like this.

Umm… thanks? If I'm interpreting that image correctly, I'm glad you liked it.
