> The Royal Dinner
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

Widjet trotted through the castle halls on his way to the royal dining room, his latest report in mind as he avoided the odd maid or guard on their patrol. Along with thoughts of the report were thoughts of his curse. He'd dealt with it beforehand in attempts to stop it from being a problem during dinner, but he wasn't entirely confident it'd work. It was close to breeding season and some of the early blooming mares had already begun their heat cycle. Thankfully, most if not all of said mares either worked in other areas of the castle or were not ones he encountered often if at all.

Coming out of his thoughts, the light-brown coated stallion approached the doors to the royal dining room, the guards posted on either side nodding to him before opening the doors to allow him access. The large doors smoothly opened at the hooves of the Royal Guard, revealing the two princesses sitting at the royal dining table in the center of the room; Princess Celestia to the right and Princess Luna to the left.

The food looked to have not yet been served, the table clean while the two princesses stopped whatever chat they were having to turn and look at the new arrival.

Princess Celestia smiled and gestured for Widjet to approach and sit down, her long white spire of a horn glowing with her yellow magic while the chair she gestured to glowed in kind, sliding out to allow Widjet to sit.

As Widjet approached, Princess Celestia resumed her chat with her sister, "Luna, the maids that are separated are only the ones entering their heat cycle, and it's only the ones that have duties in public or important areas. We can't have the guards distracted or an incident occurring like last time,"

Princess Luna turned back to Celestia as she began talking, having been staring at Widjet as he sat down, much to his confusion, "I know, Sister. But surely my assistant does not need to be separated. Her duties revolve around me, and I am certainly no stallion,"

Princess Celestia's magic faded from around the chair as she pulled Widjet in to the table. The stallion just watched the conversation take place, unwilling to interrupt, "Luna, you have guards that also have duties revolving around you, not to mention the ones that would be subjected to the scent as you go about your own duties. It would be unfair. Now," Luna's nod while Celestia turned to Widjet both signalled the end of the conversation as Widjet perked up, "About your report, Widjet,"

"Ah, yes, Princess..." Widjet relayed the report as it was to Princess Celestia, including any updates that had happened since then, "and that's all, Princess,"

Princess Celestia for her part had sat and listened as the food came into the room, various mares and stallions coming in from the kitchen carrying platters and laying them on the table. Princess Luna had also been listening from her end of the table, and chose this time to pipe up, "You said you were working on a device that would allow ponies to see in the dark?"

Widjet turned to Luna, a brief expression of surprise on his face at the sudden voice from the lunar alicorn, "Uh, yes, Princess. Night vision goggles. They would be worn on a pony's eyes like spectacles and allow them to see in almost any darkness as if it were day,"

Princess Luna nodded, interested, "I may wish to take a look at these 'Night Vision Goggles' later on,"

"Yes, Princess. Though, the current ones I have are only prototypes, they don't work as well as I'd want them to," Widjet responded with a nod.

Princess Celestia spoke up from beside Widjet as Luna smiled and brought her attention to her plate, "It seems you're doing good work, Widjet, if such devices are any indication. Though, how about we continue the talk once we've gotten food in our mouths, hm?"

Widjet nodded as Princess Celestia smiled and joined Luna in eating, Widjet about to join as well until a certain mare walked past his chair carrying a platter. Normally, he'd ignore all the various servants that worked in the castle, all of them doing their jobs just as he did his, with the odd greeting. This one, however, caught his attention. Or specifically, the attention of something else...

The first sign that Widjet got of a problem was the scent that hit his nose, the scent of a mare in heat. Or at least, the beginnings of heat. The second sign that Widjet got was the stirring in his loins. The third sign was the most apparent. The loud thunk that occurred soon after, the sound the result of his cock rapidly swelling and whacking the underside of the table.

Widjet suppressed any reaction he might have had, adjusting himself in his seat to better hide his sudden erection from the two Princesses, who both had paused at the sound. Princess Luna was looking at the windows of the dining room, looking for a pegasus that had gotten past the guards or a bird that had gotten confused, "What was that?"

Princess Celestia responded with the most sure-sounding voice Widjet himself was almost convinced, "I'm sure it was nothing, Luna,"

Widjet only just caught the glance that Princess Celestia sent his way as Luna turned to her, "I suppose so,"

The three returned to eating their meals, the servants continuing to enter and exit at intervals. Filling glasses, taking platters into the kitchen. Widjet tried to hold his arousal back, but it was a fruitless endeavour, as that damned mare kept passing by him, her scent lingering around him and simply arousing him further. His cock was hard and throbbing as it leaked his pre onto the underside of the table and the floor below.

Throughout it all, Widjet kept his cool, eating as he swore Princess Celestia kept glancing towards him. He failed to suppress a growing blush, however, when he noticed the table starting to tilt. His cock was rock hard at this point, and it showed as the muscles that held it up lifted the side of the table he was on almost effortlessly.

The clinking of cutlery on plates and the hoofsteps of the servants was completely drowned out by the crash as one of the empty platters fell to the floor. It was deafening in Widjet's ears.

Everyone in the room turned to look at the platter that had fallen, the first to snap out of it being a servant that rushed up, bowed, and spirited the platter away.

The second to snap out of it was Princess Celestia, who turned to Widjet - he swore she was smirking for a moment - a carrot in her magic as she asked the royal technologist, "Something the matter, Widjet?" before with agonising slowness in Widjet's eyes, she slid the carrot into her mouth.

Princess Luna was Widjet's savior in that moment, "Sister?" both Celestia and Widjet turned to look at Luna, finding her pressing her hoof against the table, "Perhaps we should get this table fixed, it appears that one of the legs may have swollen,"

Once again, Widjet swore Princess Celestia glanced to him with a smirk, before she was looking at Luna with that same serene smile.

Celestia opened her mouth to respond to Widjet, before that mare in heat chose that moment to interrupt them once again - walking past Widjet's chair where she promptly slipped and fell to the floor with a yelp and a crash as the platter she was holding flew from her hooves and onto the floor in front of her.

Princess Celestia blinked, leaned to the side and looked under Widjet's chair, "Hm. The maids have done their job too well. The floor looks a little too white,"

Widjet promptly passed out, much to the confusion of Princess Luna as Princess Celestia simply returned to eating.
