Chapter 27
The train was already waiting as we arrived.
Celestia exited the carriage before me, and I followed her down onto the grass covered ground next to the narrow platform. The air was filled with the smoke and steam of the engine and the yells of ponies getting things loaded and stowed away.
"Your majesty, Princess," Moon Glow said as she got to attention with a salute, "Everything is ready, you are free to board. We'll be ready to leave in another couple of minutes."
I nodded to her with a smile, "Thank you, Glow."
She nodded before she hesitated, "...There seems to have been a mistake in Canterlot however. They only sent one royal rail carriage."
I shared a glance with Celestia. A mistake, huh?
"I think we'll manage," I told Glow with a smile, "Princess Celestia can have the bedroom, I just need somewhere to hang my tail."
She nodded, "Of course, sir," she said before she flinched as there was a crash of something falling to the ground and ponies yelling at each other, "If you excuse me, I need to go deal with that," she said with a small sigh.
"Don't let us keep you," I said. As she moved away, I glanced at Celestia.
She looked back at me, "You know vacations and teaching wasn't the-"
"I know," I answered and sighed softly, "And when we get back, we're going to have to deal with it. But not now. Let's just enjoy the day or so we have left until Canterlot."
Celestia hesitated for a second before she nodded, "You are right," she agreed before she smiled, "Shall we investigate our shared carriage then, my Prince?"
I gave her my best elegant bow, wings spread, "We shall, my Princess."
So we did. Moving onto the platform, we just went towards the fanciest looking carriage
Allowing Celestia to board first, I gave the Solar and Nocturnis guards standing on each side of the door a nod before following her inside.
Inside was just as comfortable looking as the one that brought me to this place. All overstuffed couches and fine wood paneling. Actually, looking at the book selection in the bookshelf, it may actually be the same one.
Celestia crossed over to the small bar and pulled out a bottle of brandy. Removing the cork, she sniffed it and poured a pair of small glasses.
I glanced around towards the ceilings as I took the offered glass in my magic, "Hmm."
"What?" Celestia asked as she laid down on the largest couch.
"Not a lot of perches to hang from here," I said before I crossed over to peer into the bedroom, "...But the one I used on the way out here is still installed in the bedroom."
Celestia smiled a bit, "Wouldn't be the first time we shared somewhere to sleep."
"What, used to stallions hanging around in your bedroom?" I teased as I jumped onto the couch, settling down facing her.
"Maybe not in such a literal manner," Celestia teased, her wings raised, "But it has been known to happen."
I laughed, "Known, right. The populace would have a stroke."
"I'm sure they would have plenty of strokes."
I just laughed and shook my head before looking up at her with a fangy grin, "Bad Princess."
She winked and sipped her drink with a playful smile of her own.
Grinning back I sipped my own, leaning against the backrest of the couch and resting my head against it as I looked up at her, "...It's been a nice month," I said, "I learned a lot too. I liked it."
"It has been very nice," she agreed and then touched her necklace with a gold covered hoof, "But it's back to reality again."
I felt the silver circlet on my own head before I nodded, "Maybe now I can get Sparks or Sunny to tell me what's going on in Nocturnis. They refuse to tell me anything but 'it's going fine'."
"Would not count on it until you return," Celestia pointed out.
"Likely not," I admitted and then shrugged, "...It can't be that bad. if the place burned down, they'd likely tell me. And at least the rain period should be well over by the time I get back."
"Is the rain truly that bad?" she asked and smiled at me, sipping her drink.
"Oh?" I asked with a smile, "It is. I bet that if you go out into it, it could keep even you from getting too hot. Assuming you didn't drown."
"Hmm," she said, touching the flowing waves of her mane with a hoof, "Been a long while since my mane got all wet and clingy."
Now that was an attractive mental picture.
"You know, you could do that if you glowed instead."
"I could," she agreed with a small smile, "But who would be able to see it?"
I shook my head, "Trust me, nobody would be able to see it in the rain either. Even ignoring the massive cloud of steam you’d put off if not using a dissipating spell, you can barely see a hoof before you when it's at its worst. You should visit sometime."
"It would be an interesting thing to experience," she agreed before she smiled, "It sounds a bit cozy actually."
"It can be," I admitted before I flicked one ear, "But until we figured out the right way to build roofs, it was incredibly loud. Especially to these ears. In the end, we had to build silencing spells into the wood."
"I can imagine silencing spells can be useful.”
“Very useful. Are the roofs in Canterlot similarly enchanted?” I asked, “Or the walls? Cities can be loud at times.”
Celestia smirked, “So it can be. I know Luna uses a silence sphere for it.”
“And you?”
She smirked at me and sipped her drink, “They can be quite useful. When things get too loud.”
“What about the train then?” I asked as I took another sip, looking up at her.
“I don’t know…” she admitted and made a show of looking me over, “Maybe we’ll find out tonight?”
“Bad Princess.”
Celestia smiled innocently, “Going to have a stroke?”
I laughed and took a swallow from my drink, “If Cadance heard us, she definitely would.”
The goddess of the sun grinned at me.

Just f*ck already you f*ggots! - Candice
If the sparks fly anymore there going a fire considering how much they are flying between the two. I wish they would hurry up and make a move or a least admit to themselves that they have feelings beyond friendship for the other person. Page is showing signs of attraction and because of their different realms they won't even consider making a move.
Of course, mistakes are known to happen every now and again
Page is gonna get back, Twilighy is gonna ask how bedding Celestia was, and then when she finds out it never happened, suddenly those portals work just long enough to shove Page to Canterlot and lock him and Celestia in a room.
*Celestia returns to Canterlot*
Chrysalis and Skitter awaiting her and talking to one another.
Chrysalis: "She don't smell to mutch of my little Predator..."
Skitter: "Told you so, I also doubt she is with foal yet..."
Chrysalis: "We don't know for certain, give it a month and we see if it take hold!"
Skitter: "Fair enough..."
Chrysalis: "How often you think they did it?"
Skitter: "Probably twice a day after they arrived, maybe three times."
Chrysalis: *Nods sagely*
*Both Changeling walk back to the castle*
Celestia: "What was that about?"
Unexpected her sitting cushion answered her:
"My Queen expected the stud to seed his future herd mate, hopefully a colt so the hive might have more Alicorn grade Larve for the swarm..."
Celestia looks confused and ask:
"Since when do sitting cushions talk?"
Changeling infiltrator 007 turns back to being a Changeling with dents all over his body, walking towards the castle muttering:
"I have dents all over my carapace and a butt shaped indent in my neck and nothing to show for it.
Life just isn't fair..."
Celestia decided to hire a Changeling as a sitting cushion from that day on, the massage function they offered was simply to entertaining to not have from that day forth.

Love it
Great chapter

Lmfao, about right

They are both completely aware of their feeling for each other, they just know their schedules and duties don't line up. I suspect that if Page had a reason to move back to canterlot they would actually go further very quickly.
11617426
don't forget to dmake them druk before, otherwise it may not work

The way they keep dancing around it and considering how long it took to go beyond friends even with sparks flying with the other girls in his life I'm not positive he is aware of his feelings unlike Celestia who I'm sure if she does have feelings beyond friendship is well aware of it.
Their back and forth reminded me of this old black and white Japanese Movie where there were these 3 lords ( nobunaga and two others I don't recall the names of ) that were basically on a stalemate. One of the lords dies but no one knows but a handful of advisors. Luckily they find a thief who looks exactly like him and clean him up and have him pretend to be the lord for as long as he can or is needed to buy them some time.
They go around the whole...castle thing to get him familiar with the area since it would be odd if the lord didn't know his way around the place. They get to the stables and the lord's favorite horse is wary of the thief and the advisors are worried someone will notice that the lord's horse was suddenly wary of him so they say " ah, the lord is Ill and cannot ride "
Then they get to basically the lord's harem and are like, the girls might notice that the lord has scars he shouldn't and are missing scars he should have. So they say " ah, the lord is Ill and cannot ride "
Hahahaha.
Edit: so does autocorrect not know what the word. Ill is? I'm about tires of correcting all my I'll s
How much longer must we wait?!?!
Thanks for the chapter!
Have a great day!
Sure they make lewd comments, but idk if either of them wants to bang for real

The probably dance around it partially to screw with Cadence as they know how much it infuriates her.
"A place to hang my tail." I love that phrase.
They're doing it on purpose by now. All of them.
11617465
The first (Sunset) after Luna can be explained as him not really being comfortable with polyamory and Sunset and Twilight having feelings for each other with him stepping aside to let their relationship blossom.
11617537
Well sunset didn't even come into the picture well after he got together with Luna and even then he kept saying they were friends even while he tried to put the moves on her. It wasn't until he realized that Luna was encouraging those moves that he realized that she was after him as he was after her.
MEANWHILE AT SPY TIME GRUMPY SLEEPOVER...
Twilight:
Great...they knew. Not only has the ship NOT sailed but we are going to get a lecture when Page gets back.
Sunset:
Well at least Page has gotten a little smarter out of this. He might actually be able to follow our conversations about advanced magic theories for once. That's a win...I guess...
Twilight: Oh well we tried our bes---wait. Sunset? Where did Discord go?!
...MEANWHILE IN VERY FAMILIAR DREAMSCAPE...
Discord: Desperate times! Desperate measures!
HEY! Tonka Abyss! Where are you?
Tantabus:
I'm called the Tantabus.
Discord: Yes yes yes. The Tentacle Bossy!
Tantabus:
...please just state your business.
Discord:
Listen...we both have a common goal: making Page happy. My latest attempts didn't yield adequate results so I'm here to place an...investment on your current endeavor.
*Discord manifests a huge lump of raw chaos magic*
Tantabus:
Keep talking...I'm listening.
11617429
I must say that your storytelling skills have really grown over time! I'm proud of you!

👍
And so the Tantabus get the Alicorn statue as a real body and started making advances on Page herd.
Page relished the challenge, sizes wasn't everything.
When Nocturnis got its first Sphinx citizen, did it instantly started a herd with the statue.
(One year later)
The Sphinx is with ponys kitten and Page started to feel threatened, it was time to start the contest of who got th more adorable offspring
So who is cuter?
- Oversized statue pony kitten
- Thestral Unicorn with eartuffts and adorable fangs
- Bicorn Thestral with eartuffts, adorable fangs and chest fluff
- Luna star themed normal Thestral with eartuffts, adorable fangs and chest fluff

I choose pony kitten...because it sounds adorable!
I'M GOING TO STROKE IF THESE TWO DON'T SNU SNU RIGHT NOW!!!
*Sgt. Murphy places a Level Twilight Sparkle lockdown onto Celestia & Page's room with a note saying that the spell won't disengage until they perform a minimum of 4 hours of non stop Snu-Snu*
Nice

Oh I bet you will

Meh... my stories on Fimfiction are usually more entertaining than my comment section fun of the moment.
You know the whole three week vacation seems to have been pointless. He seems even worse at magic now and their relationship is the same as the beginning. I thought the vacation would be the whole focus but it was over in a single chapter.
11617429
Both of you are awesome!!
