The sun was already up high when I woke up next to my marefriend. After the Gala was over, Celestia had led us to this simple bedroom.
Twily looked so innocent and cute when she was asleep. I snuggled closer to her and kissed her beautiful lips.
"Mmmhhhh. My favorite way of waking up.", she mumbled.
"I know.", I replied. "It's my favorite too."
We spend the next few minutes kissing.
"Last night was so much fun. I don't think I ever saw Celestia so joyful before.", Twilight told me while she stretched.
"Yeah, I know. She was incredibly happy after the Gala." I brushed my fingers through her mane. "I think Cadence's dance moves were a league of their own, I never saw such a talented dancer before."
"If was pretty impressive how she incorporated her wings.", Twilight agreed.
"Shining Armor's dancing was pretty similar to yours.", I said and smiled as I remembered it.
"He taught me how to dance when I was younger. We did our own little dance parties in his room."
"We should grab something to eat on our way to the train station.", I said as I got dressed.
"Already?", she asked and pouted.
"There is so much research to be done. Chemistry, about Indigo Nightshade, and Cadence's past. You love research."
"True, but cuddling and kissing with you is even more fun."
"We have an even bigger bed at home and there are a lot of experiments we can do there as well. I saw a shop on our tour with Luna that I want to visit before we go home. It was called 'Night Toys'."
She jumped from the bed. "Okay, let's go."
...
We had eaten some muffins in Twilight's favorite bakery and were on our way to 'Night Toys'.
Twilight cleared her throat. "Would it be okay if I stay outside and enjoy the sun?"
"You are ashamed to go inside?", I asked.
"What if I come out of it and my mother saw me? Or Shining? Or one of..."
"But you have a clearly phallic shaped object in your night desk.", I interrupted her. "How did you buy this?"
Her cheeks flushed. "Pinkie bought it for me. I opened her 'special drawer' on accident on a day I visited her. She told me I could borrow some of her. I told her I would rather like a new one but didn't have the courage to go and buy one. The concept of shame seemed to be totally new to her and she gladly bought one for me."
I thought back to the 'touch-my-udders-in-the-middle-of-the-bakery' incident.
"It's okay. You can stay outside."
"Thanks."
"But you're not allowed to look what I have bought then. I reserve the right to use everything I buy on you, while you are blindfolded. That will be a fun night."
She gulped and pushed her tail between her legs.
After a few more minutes we arrived at the shop, it featured black and red bridle with reins in the display window. Twilight made sure to stand quite a distance away as I entered.
...
I came out holding a brown paper bag. The salespony had been quite helpful after she got over her initial shock of me being with a pony.
"I found plenty fun things.", I told Twilight with a grin. "We can go to the train station now."
Twilight looked around a final time before she walked next to me, she set quite a pace to get some distance to this shop.
...
We arrived at the train station fifteen minutes later while we chatted about the Gala. I noticed Twilight's gaze wandering to the brown bag again and again, while she used her magic to carry our suitcase.
"Look who's here as well.", I told my marefriend. I pointed my stump ahead of us where Applejack stood and waited for the train as well. "Hey, AJ!", I shouted.
She flinched a bit and turned toward us as we came closer. "Hey, gals.", she replied. "Great thing we take the same train home." She was in extremely high spirits and I had an idea why.
Something around her neck reflected the sunlight, I took a closer look. I was a silver necklace with an exquisite moon ornament attached to it.
"Pretty necklace. Is it a present from your marefriend?", I asked her although the answer was obvious.
"Yes.", she answered quite bashful, her cheeks rosy.
"Sooo... where did you sleep last night? Or maybe you didn't sleep at all?", I queried with a grin.
"It's not like that. Luna and I seem to get along very well... we kissed and shared her bed. But we decided to take it slow, I never had a relationship and she is out of practice too. We only kissed and cuddled in bed."
"But it felt great, right?", Twilight asked.
"You can bet it did.", AJ responded and beamed brighter than the sun. "Tomorrow she will visit me on the farm and helps me with my chores, Earthpony-Style, no magic. We will have a series of shared activities over the next few days to understand each other and our different lifestyles."
"That's a lot of hooey.", I said grinning, imitating Applejack. "You really know each other for what? One evening? It doesn't make a lick of sense! She must have you under some spell!"
"Okay, I deserve this.", Applejack replied with a crooked smile.
I drew her into a firm hug. "I'm really happy for you. You two will be a great couple." I let her go and nuzzled her, it really was a nice friendly feeling.
"Well, Luna said there is a little magic in the necklace.", AJ told us. "It would make it easier for her to teleport nearby me."
"Oh, it's a beacon spell." Twilight explained. "That's clever since she will be teleporting every time she visits you."
Our train entered the station and we got in one of the carts together.
Once we were seated again, Applejack noticed the brown paper bag.
"Did you buy something nice in Canterlot?", she asked.
"It's a surprise for Twilight, something she will like quite much."
"Cool, can I have a peek?"
"NO!", Twilight shouted so loud all other passengers looked at her. "Sorry..."
I leaned towards Applejack and whispered in her ear: "This is even more personal than the bra was. I don't want you to cause a flooding here."
Her flushed face emitted so much heat I was afraid I could get a sunburn.
I have to say, I wouldn't have minded it either way in the end, but you quite suprised me there. Thank you for that through, I like the more romantic aproach in those romance stories....if I can say it like that. (sometimes I'm quite not sure if what I write in english, exactly means what I'm trying to explain in German.
"Ach ja hab vergessen das du ja auch Deutsch sprichts, mann jetzt hab ich zwar etwas Ruhe auch wenn es nicht aus schönen Gründen ist, dennoch kann ichs dir ja auch anders sagen."
Manchmal denk ich ziemlich einseitig (obwohl ich garnicht mal dumm bin) und erwarte garnicht erst das Luna auch anders kann. Vielleicht hasst du in meinem Wunsch ein bisschen eingelenkt, jedenfalls ist es nett zu sehen das Luna es aus entsprechenden Gründen und um vielleicht auch Applejack ein wenig zu schonen (wegen ihrer ewigen Erfahrung), es langsam angeht.
Ich muss an dieser Stelle mal zugeben das ich auch wenn ichs nicht immer zugeben mag, es doch in Büchern, Romanzen gern besonders herzlich oder ich denke mann kann auch süß sagen erlebe. Ich lese echt gern wie die Charactere Rücksicht aufeinander nehmen und sich langsam näher kommen und sowas, manchmal darfs dann aber auch ein wenig verspielter sein, ne Mischung aus dem was ich im Moment hier vorfinde.
1. That's even better
2. I'm not sure if the second sentence from Stella is wrong or if I don't udnerstand how she means it.
1. Ne richtig nette Idee, ich genieß das grad ein wenig.
2. Wie genau meint Stella das jetzt?
Ich verstehe das Applejack sagt sie wollen sich die nächsten Tage und Wochen richtig kennenlernen und Stella spricht als hätte AJ gesagt Luna und Sie würden sich bereits in und auswendig kennen. Hab ich das was nicht richtig verstanden?
Nice chapter.
Ein wirklich gutes Kapitel. Ich bin garnicht mal so eigen wie ich mich manchmal in meinen Kommentaren vielleicht gebe den ich merke immer das ich das selbe Zeug manchmal mag und manchmal hasse, ich denke ich nehm die Geschichten einfach zu ernst da ich gern lese usw.
7912164 Luna hat selbst entschieden es langsamer anzugehen, sie hat zwar den Anmach-Spuch rausgehauen, aber sie will Applejack nicht abschrecken. Luna hat so lange gewartet, sie kann sehr geduldig sein.
Stella hat AJ's Reaktion nachgemacht als sie von Stella und Luna erfahren hat. Als kleine Retoure Kutsche. Sie kennt Luna auch erst seit einer Nacht.
Ich hab es jetzt etwas klarer gemacht :
I'm of the same mind as Texus. I'm a sucker for romance stories. I like that the Luna x Applejack ship is taking a "slow sail". In my mind they need time to get to know themselves as well as each other at the time this story takes place. Looking forward to the next update my friend.
7912321
Ich wollte erst in eine ganz bestimmte Richtung fragen, aber egal wierum ich drüber nachdenke, es läuft doch darauf hinaus das Luna sich um die frische Beziehung sorgt und etwas Rücksicht nimmt.
Ich denke was ich versuche rauszukriegen ist, ob Sie sich ein wenig zurücknimmt um....Okay das ist jetzt irgendwie schwierig zu beschreiben, da egal wie ich denke es tatsächlich darauf zurückläuft das die Beziehung Luna wichtig ist, da es ihre erste echte Chance auf Liebe ist seit sie zurückkam und Sie Applejack wie du schon sagst mit ihrem eventuellen Verhalten oder "der Erfahrung" keine Angst machen möchte.
Ich meine Sie könnte Applejack vermutlich auch erschrecken wenn Sie versucht einfach....sallop al mit allem loszulegen an was Sie sich noch erinnert.
Wie ichs schon erwähnt hab, ich versuch es mir manchmal irgendwie "noch schöner" zu reden als es sowieso schon ist.
Ich mag es wieder da psychologisch ranzugehen und stelle mir vor das Applejack in Ihrer Zweisamkeit einen eventuell sogar schüchtern Wesenszug an den Tag legt.
Das ich was ich immer irgendwie von Vinyl oder Rainbow als Abwechslung erwarte und was auch immer niedlich rüber kommt. Ich meine den Spruch das Leute die sich wichtig machen oder Bestätigung suchen, vielleicht in gewissen Momenten schüchterner sein können als mann denkt. Ich mag es also wenn zum Beispiel Rainbow in anderen Geschichten plötzlich etwas kleinlaut oder sogar niedlich wird.
Wundere dich nicht wieviel ich immer schreibe oder suche versteckte Bedeutungen, ich lasse meinen Gedanken nur sehr gern freien lauf und schreibe meist mehr als nötig. Außerdem liebe ich es einfach darüber zu quatschen.
Gibts schon wieder neue Episoden? Ich find zwar nich alle unbedingt so gut in Moment und bleibe seit Tirek meist lieber bei den Geschichten, aber es ist immernoch meistens 1/2 bis 3/4 einer Staffel sehr gut. Ich muss das aufjedenfall wegen spoiler usw. lieber selber gucken, ich glaube ich mag Tirek nur nicht weil ich Ihn zuerst in einer Geschichte gesehen habe, ihn dann auf Wikipedia oder so als Recycle-Bösewicht entlarvt habe und dann als Dragonball kampf in der Show gesehen habe.
7912395 Ah it is always nice to see someone who thinks similar, sadly I don't know anyone who is into mlp or is watching it in my town.
The next best thing for me would only be adoption storys or some psychological themes.
7914709 Like both of you said, they will take it slow. Luna really wants to get to know her and hopes for a long-lasting relationship. AJ is happy with taking the slow path since she is inexperienced. Applejack loves the idea of doing chores together with her and Luna is interested in trying new things.

I've read only one adoption story so far; My Filly Nightshine. I like what I've read so far and I'm hoping it keeps getting updated. I can appreciate existential stories. Watch as a character questions their existence and how they can fit and/or contribute to their world. The ever present "meaning of life" kind of stuff. I find MLP provides plenty of fertile soil for these and many other stories to grow.
7915121
I must admit I'm about as excited for their relationship as I am for Stella and Twi. Maybe that could be a side story or even the basis of a sequel sometime in the future. (But perhaps after the first installment of "The Filly Adventures of Cara and Aurora".)
7917955 Yeah, I thought about the possibility of writing about it in an extra story.
7918399
I'll surely read it.
