> No Clop November - Love and Lust > by StarkyShy > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Prologue: Heart's Racing > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- At the base of the Crystal Empire’s towering castle stood quite the colorful cast of characters. Many were chatting and gossiping excitedly, while others were confusedly looking around, seeing a bunch of princesses, dragons, and changelings, and wondering what exactly they were getting themselves into. All the conversation and confusion was put on hold as the rulers of the kingdom descended from the castle. Princess Cadence gracefully floated down to the ground, followed by her husband Shining Armor, rushing down the stairs. Princess Cadence flashed a warm smile to everyone in attendance. “Hello, everyone! I’m so glad that you all could make it. I’m truly honored and excited that Shining Armor and I are your hosts for this year’s No Clop November!” Out came an uproar of excited cheers, stomps, and claps, causing a few heads to turn and look at the crowd at the kingdom’s largest landmark discussing a topic that perhaps should have been taken to a place more private. “I know most of you already have a good idea of what’s going on, but I know that a few of you are new to the little friendly game we play and might be feeling a little intimidated and overwhelmed by everything right now.”  There were a few hesitant and reluctant nods from some familiar, but still fresh faces in the crowd. Cadence cleared her throat. “The rules are quite simple: Go the entire month of November without clopping out! Easy as that! That means you can’t purposefully and consciously bring yourself to orgasm at any point. And if you manage to make it, then your prize is being part of an orgy on December First with all the other winners!” Just hearing about the legendary orgy celebration was enough to get some lips salivating, even from the game’s veterans and multi-time winners. The prize was downright irresistible, filling up everyone’s mind with sweet, sweet temptation. Shining stepped up next to his wife, his horn aglow with his magical aura. “But if you think you can be sneaky and get away with cheating without anyone knowing, well…we have something for that.” In the middle of the circle, Shining Armor teleported in a large display case, like it was lifted straight from a jewelry store. Inside the glass container were twenty-eight beautifully cut clear crystal hearts, each one had the image of a participant reflected in the central, heart-shaped facets. The group immediately started gasping and staring in awe, quickly crowding around the case to try and find which heart was designated for them. “It’s in your best interest to tough it out through the whole month,” Shining warned with a smirk. “Aside from losing out on the big prize, there are some things that’ll last longer than the shame…” Though a few were still enamored by the big shiny crystal gem with their face in it, several of the participants caught onto Shining Armor’s words, and remembered the previous embarrassing displays meant to punish and deter anyone who failed. A few ideas came to mind as to what he meant, but none were brave or foolish enough to find out for themselves. Not willingly, at least. Cadence quickly tried to dispel their worries. “But let’s focus on the fun part, here! We’re all gathered here in one place today, and hopefully, we’ll all be here again by the end of the month.” A loud, dismissive scoff came out of Rainbow Dash’s mouth, “Pssh, like that’ll happen!” Gallus and Smolder covered their mouths to try and hide their snickering. Cadence let out a short, annoyed snort. Even Shining was holding up a hoof to his face to hide a smirk at Dash’s snarky outburst. “...Hopefully.” Cadence rolled her eyes. As fun as it would be, statistically and historically, having all twenty-eight make it to the end was sadly a long shot. Though, that’s why she and Shining Armor had fun testing out the elimination system. “Well, since the game officially starts tomorrow, I hope you’re all prepared! I know there are plenty here that already know what they’re getting into, but I hope that those of you that are new to the experience take this opportunity to connect with your fellow participants. You’ll be getting to know them a lot better if you make it, after all,” Cadence winked. With the formalities out of the way, everyone went into an excited chatter. As Tree Hugger stared vacantly off into the distance, getting lost in the lustrous glow of her surroundings, she was approached from behind by a familiar friend. “Tree Hugger! It’s so good to see you!” Fluttershy grinned as she wrapped her hooves around her. “Oh heyyy, Flutters!” Tree Hugger leaned into the embrace, tilting her head to rub cheeks with the pegasus. “This place is like, super cool! All the reflections of the light against the buildings creating these colors in the air, it’s like…woah…” Both ponies took a moment to admire the scenery, with Fluttershy staring in awe as she started to see what Tree Hugger was talking about. The shining sun bouncing off all the different crystal buildings and ponies made a subtle yet beautiful light show that caused a soft gasp to leave her lips. “Wow, Tree Hugger, I’ve been here plenty of times, but I don’t think I’ve really stopped to look!” “Always glad to give you a new perspective on life, Fluttershy,” Tree Hugger nodded. “Though it’s really cool that I got the chance to be here.” “Actually, now that I think about it, I didn’t take you for the type to be into this kinda competition! What made you wanna join?” Tree Hugger let out a light chuckle. “What’s that supposed to mean, Shy? You don’t think I’m down for some really kinky stuff? Or did you forget that weekend in Baltimare?” she said while waggling her eyebrows. Fluttershy’s face instantly flashed red. “O-Oh, I remember…” She sheepishly rubbed the back of her neck. “It’s just that…I didn’t think that not clopping for a month would be your…um…’vibe’, you know?” Tree Hugger nodded. “Oh, totally. I mean, that’s definitely an obstacle, but like, the idea that so many species from all around get together and just love each other all night? Who wouldn’t think that’s absolute bliss?” “So you’re not worried? This challenge isn’t exactly easy.” “Does this look like the face of somepony who’s worried, Fluttershy?” Tree Hugger asked, fluttering her consistently half-lidded eyes. Princess Twilight Sparkle stood between her mother and her mentor. And the conversation between the two was making her tense, to say the least. “Really? Windy got the chance to do that to you?” Velvet asked, her mouth hung open in shock and a twinge of jealousy. Celestia softly giggled. “It was a bit…impulsive of us, admittedly, but a very pleasant surprise.” “So you’re saying it was worth it?” Velvet smirked, shooting the princess a cheeky grin. Celestia sheepishly shifted her eyes to the side. “Hard to say, I do wish I could have joined in on the orgy fun, but I doubt that Windy would have brought over a celebratory cake just for me if I did.” “Well, maybe I can have her beat by showing you my own spin on the recipe! After all, I’d like to get a taste, too!”  “Oh jeez…” Twilight groaned. Now she knew exactly how Rainbow Dash felt. Celestia’s eyes widened upon hearing Twilight’s disgust. They had completely forgotten that she was right next to them. “Oh, I’m sorry, Twilight, did you want us to change the subject?” Twilight put a hoof to her forehead and sighed. “No, it’s…it’s fine. I’m glad to see you here, Princess Celestia. You’re not upset that your winning streak was broken?” “I’m not too bothered by it,” Celestia said with a warm smile. “It’s not like one loss would discourage me from participating forever.” “You suuuure it’s not a sore spot for you?” “Whatever would give you that idea, Twilight?” “It’s just…” Twilight took one more look around the plaza just to be sure. “I don’t see Princess Luna here with you. That doesn’t have anything to do with…anything, right?” Celestia chuckled, then nodded in understanding. “I assure you, my relationship with Luna is fine. She’s just decided not to participate this year to focus on some…diplomatic relations.” “Hrmm…” Twilight pursed her lip. She believed Celestia and Luna were doing fine, but that euphemism could mean so many different things given who was and who wasn’t currently present… “Actually, with you two and Shining Armor participating, I’m curious how Night Light feels about this whole thing,” Celestia pointed out. “Oh believe me, I tried to get him to join, but the high stress of all the temptation just wasn’t his style,” Velvet explained. “It just means I have to have fun for the two of us!” “I’m sure you’ll do him proud this year,” Celestia smiled, before her eyes lit up with excitement. “Did Shining Armor ever tell you about what he wanted me to do with him two years ago?” Twilight Sparkle immediately started walking away, plugging her ears with her wings. “Oh for the love of-” Babs Seed was busy surveilling the competition from afar, when she suddenly felt a heavy weight slumped across her back. “Well well well, trying again this year, Babsy? You must be soooo desperate for a win…” Babs blew her bangs away from her face in annoyance. “Psssh, what? Nah! You know me, Discord, this is the perfect opportunity to screw around some more!” “Oh please,” Discord rolled his eyes, unconvinced by Babs’s excuse. “You’re almost as bad a liar as your cousin. It’s quite alright to crave that delightful orgy experience. It is quite a lovely, unique experience.” Babs felt her ears start to burn up. “Yeah, well, doin’ some sabotage is what makes me happy, so dere!” “Well, if you so insist on going through the same story arc once more, I shall not stop you.” Discord returned to his perch right on Babs’s back. “I suppose it’s my duty as a fellow Cutie Mark Crusader to help you on your thinly veiled quest. “Hmmph…” Babs grumbled a few curses under her breath as she shook her head. “Now then, I assume since you’re so intent on this sabotaging mission that you’ve already got some plans in mind?” “A bit, was thinkin’ a starting with the yellow chick.” The earth pony smirked, practically hearing the steam shooting from Discord’s ears. “I think she’ll be an easy pick.” “You wouldn’t dare.” “Try me, Dissy.” Discord huffed and crossed his arms. “There’s quite a bit more this year, should we be calling for backup?” “Mmm, maybe, but I think we already gots ourselves another partner in crime right here…” Cozy Glow looked up to Chrysalis, who was extremely offput and uncomfortable, and for once, it wasn’t the pegasus’s fault. “Wow, Chryssie, I’m surprised that Cadence and Shining let you within a hundred miles of their kingdom!” “And I’m surprised I haven’t thrown you into the nearest wall yet,” the changeling coldly replied, her worried frown turning into a fierce scowl. “Aw, c’mon, you’re telling me you aren’t the least bit surprised that you got invited?” Cozy asked, undeterred by Chrysalis’s harsh attitude. Chrysalis turned her glare over to Cadence in the distance. “Hmmph, I don’t know what she was thinking when she talked to me, and quite frankly, it doesn’t matter. I’m here to prove myself and win. Whatever her motivations were, I don’t care!” “Spoken with the tone of someone who definitely doesn’t care.” “What I do care about is making sure that you don’t get in my way again!” Chrysalis snarled, leaning down to bare her fangs to Cozy. Cozy simply smiled innocently in the face of danger. “Aw, c’mon, I gave you free food that whole month! You’re not really mad at me for that, are you?” A sharp huff of air left Chrysalis’s nostrils as she blushed through her glare. What Cozy did to her was humiliating and nefarious, but she still argued against herself if the absolute mind-numbing delight that she experienced was worth the manipulation. “...I’ll be watching you, you little brat!” “Well, I’m glad to have an audience!” Cozy smirked. “Though maybe you should make sure your own kind isn’t striking out right now...” Chrysalis looked over to see Thorax trying to talk to someone far more feathery than the usual griffons she’s seen. In fact, this one seemed to be all avian, with one limb being the exception. Despite Thorax being taller than most ponies, the bird was actually towering over him. The fact that he was leaning back and shrinking in shyness wasn’t helping either. “So…you’re one of the changelings, huh?” Celaeno squinted her eyes, suspiciously scanning Throax’s whole body. “Um…Y-Yes?” Thorax forced a grin through the nervous sweat. Celaeno didn’t seem convinced. “Hrm…from what Rainbow Dash told me, I thought changelings would be shorter…” “Aheh, well…ordinarily yes, but changelings can transform into bigger creatures. I’m just kinda like this cause I’m their king and all…” Thorax rubbed his front hoof, feeling his neck leaning backwards with each passing second. “A king, huh?” Celaeno put a clawtip to Thorax’s neck. “Yipe!” Thorax could see a hungry gleam in the parrot’s eyes. “If you’re a king,,,” Her claw slowly raised up to lift his chin “...that means you must have lots of treasure…” Thorax’s hooves started to tremble, unable to break eye contact with the bird. “Uhh…n-not really? Just…a lot of love to share? Ugh…” His horrible attempt at lying made himself cringe. “Aye?” Lie or not, Celaeno raised an eyebrow. “Well, given the circumstances, I guess that’ll do…After all, a changeling like you could prove to be quite…valuable…” As Celaeno leaned in closer, Thorax’s heart pounded in his chest, unsure whether the parrot was moving in for a bite or a kiss. But as Thorax was staring down Celaeno’s unyielding glare, the bird suddenly let out a lighthearted laugh and backed away. “Hahaha! Oh, you should see the look on your face! Priceless!” As if the previous few minutes never even happened, Celaeno draped her arm around Thorax. “You’re an interesting one, if you really do have a ton of love to share, I wouldn’t mind seeing how much you have to offer at the orgy later!” Recognizing another familiar face, Celaeno gave the changeling a quick pat on the back before running off. As soon as Thorax was sure that Celaeno was out of earshot, he wiped his forehead, his body ready to collapse on him. “Phew…First Spike and Ember, now this…what is it with everyone wanting my booty?” A group of creatures still crowded around the display case as they looked at their crystal heart, still chattering excitedly as they pushed and jostled each other around to get a better look. “Oooh, look at us!” Silverstream gushed, pressing her beak against the glass. “We look so pretty!” Yona joined the hippogriff in smushing her face against the glass, fogging it up with her heavy breathing. “Yona agree! Friends in crystals look nice and shiny!” “I dunno, I don’t think they captured my good side…” Gallus pouted as he examined his crystal with more scrutiny. “What good side?” Sandbar and Smolder smirked. The words coming out of their mouths almost reflexively, before bumping hoof to fist. Silverstream’s excited grin quickly turned into a disappointed pout. “Hmm, it still doesn’t feel right just having only five of us here…” “Yeah…” Gallus sighed. “You sure Ocellus didn’t wanna join? It’s not like she’s got a bad record or anything.” “Ocellus say she wanted break from No Clop,” Yona shrugged. “Wanted year to relax for once.” Sandbar nodded in understanding. “I don’t blame her. These months can get bruuuutal, even when you do end up winning.” “Great. Can’t wait for all that ‘stress relief’ in the middle of the month…” Smolder said through gritted teeth, side-eyeing Sandbar, Yona, and Silverstream. “And the walls remain as thin as ever…” Gallus sympathetically grumbled. Blissfully unaware of the Gallus and Smolder’s griping, Silverstream flew in between them, wrapping her arms around their shoulders. “Aww, but she’s gonna miss out on all the fun! I had like, so many boxes of toys I think she’d love to try out!” “We know.” Gallus and Smolder groaned. Sandbar walked back to the display case. “I still think it’s really cute how Princess Cadence and Prince Shining Armor put our two hearts right next to each other, Yona.” “Yes! Yona and Sandbar best couple!” the yak cheered, giving Sandbar a bone-crushing hug to prove their love. “So? Gallus is on the other side of yours, Sandbar,” Smolder snarked. “Does that make him your side hustle?” “Hey!” Gallus interjected. “I think I’m more than just a side hustle to him!” Despite her aversion to large crowds and general socialization, Tempest Shadow made a conscious effort to at least try to talk to someone new. Silently watching everyone off to the side would probably get herself another long-winded lecture from Twilight, or worse, Cadence. There was at least one other pony that was also by herself, might as well approach her. “Uh…hello?” The mare turned around, immediately starstruck by Tempest’s look. “Well, aren’t you a colorful one!” Given her enthusiastic tone and vibe, Tempest genuinely didn’t know if that was a sarcastic dig at her or not. “Err…thanks?” “Oh, where are my manners? I’m Kerfuffle!” the pegasus said. “What’s your name?” “I’m…Tempest Shadow…” Tempest stood up straight, trying to say her name with more confidence, but less authority. “Oooh, so dark and mysterious!” Kerfuffle giggled. “Well, how’d a pony like you get mixed up in all this?” Tempest clicked her tongue, trying to delicately choose the right words that still technically counted as the truth. “I’m a…a friend of the princesses.” Kerfuffle’s eyes were still as wide and starry as ever. “No kidding! Me too! Which ones?” “Oh, you know, Princess Twilight and Princess Cadence…” Kerfuffle gasped in shock. “No way! I’m also friends with Princess Twilight! Ooh, but I never met Cadence before, what’s she like?” “Well, she’s…gentle, loving…like a fairy tale come to life…” There was some bitterness hidden in Tempest’s tone that she tried her best to push down. Despite the contempt in Tempest’s voice, Kerfuffle was still in awe. “That’s incredible! Oh, you’re so lucky to be friends with two princesses, doncha know!” “Yeah, I guess…” Despite her best efforts, Tempest kept breaking eye contact with Kerfuffle, her gaze always wandering to her back hoof. And those stares were something that Kerfuffle was keen to pick up on. With a sly smirk, she brought her flank around, lifting up her prosthetic leg as she stuck her tongue out. “Ya want a better look?” Now that Kerfuffle was shoving her rear in Tempest’s face, the unicorn quickly tried to overcorrect and look straight at Kerfuffle’s face. “Uh…S-Sorry, I didn’t mean to-” “Oh, it’s alright! I don’t really mind. Looks great, right?” “It…yeah, it really does…” “Yeah, designed and made it myself.” Kerfuffle let out a quick squeal as inspiration struck. “Ya know, I could make something for you ta put on your horn there! Oooh, maybe like a ring or some sort of cozy. Whaddya say?” A genuine smile appeared on Tempest’s face as she tried to fight back tears. “I’d…I’d like that.” Rainbow Dash quickly flew over to Ms. Harshwhinny’s side. “Woah woah woah! Didn’t think I’d see you here, Ms. Harshwhinny!” she said with some light ribbing. “Never took you for an orgy kind of gal. Or even a casual sex kind of gal.” “Please, Ms. Dash, I’m no prude,” Harshwhinny scoffed, turning up her nose. “I just keep my personal life and business life very separate, that’s all.” Dash raised an eyebrow in bewilderment. “But you seem like one of those ‘always on the clock’-type ponies. Kinda hard to imagine you rolling your eyes back in pleasure with a huge grin on your face. Would love to see that happen.” “Is this your attempt at flirting, Ms. Dash?” Harshwhinny let out an amused snort. “I admit, I’ve heard far worse propositions, but I’ve also heard far better. Care to try again?” Now intrigued, Dash landed in front of Harshwhinny, tilting her head with a cocky smirk. “Well well, let’s say it was me flirting, I didn’t hear a rejection. Are you saying that you’re…” she lets out a short, mock-surprised gasp. “...Interested in me?” Harshwhinny countered with a brief almost-smile of her own. “Perhaps, but you’d have to be able to keep my interest.” “Oh, you wouldn’t have to worry about that,” Dash scoffed. “You wouldn’t be able to keep your eyes off me when the tip of my tongue does laps ‘round your clit!” “Is speed the only thing you’re concerned about?” Ms. Harshwhinny cocked up her eyebrow. “Have you never taken the time to do things slowly and live in the moment?” “Well, I guess I could slow down and enjoy my food, provided I like the taste of what I’m eating, of course.” Harshwhinny leaned her head forward. “I assure you, Ms. Dash, I’m an acquired taste.” Rainbow Dash met her halfway, butting foreheads with Harshwhinny. “And I’ll be sure to acquire your taste at the end of the month!” The two locked their gazes, the sexual tension between the two was electric. Dash’s cocky grin clashed against Harshwhinny’s stern glare. Both mares felt the hot and heavy breath of the other against their neck and chest. There was a small, but growing feeling deep within both mares, the urge to just take that one last push forward and to kiss. It was so tempting, it wasn’t November yet, they could get away with one or perhaps ten. But the lack of professional behavior, the scene they’d make, the lack of anything that would stop them if they went too far…! Instead, Ms. Harshwhinny smiled and pulled back. “Well, I wish good luck to us both then, Ms. Dash. I look forward to seeing just what you are capable of. Perhaps we’ll both get exactly what we want to see from each other.” Flustered, but relieved, Rainbow Dash nodded firmly. “Oh, I’ll have you screaming out my name when I get my hooves on you!” Braeburn took his hat off his head, holding it over his chest as he stared out at the landscape of the Crystal Empire. “Whew, we’re a real long way from Appleoosa, huh?” Little Strongheart walked up next to him, taking in the scenery. “Yeah, I don’t think I’ve ever been this far from home, or seen so many unfamiliar faces…” “Well, lucky for you, you got me to stick around with!” Braeburn grinned, leaning against her. Strongheart playfully rolled her eyes, pushing him back up straight. “Well, you, Spike, and Rainbow Dash.” The buffalo turned back around to see all the other participants. “You weren’t kidding, though, there’s all kinds of folk participating.” “Heh, yeah,” Braeburn nodded. “Heck, it’s a lot more varied than my first time.” “I don’t doubt it. I’ve never seen a yak before…” “And Ah bet that she’s never seen a buffalo before either!” Strongheart awkwardly shuffled her hooves against the ground. “So…as somepony with tons of experience, what’s this whole thing…you know…like?” Braeburn nervously rubbed the back of his neck. “Aheh, I don’t really have that much experience…” he sheepishly admitted. “It’s uh…a lot harder than it looks…” “Well at least tell me what the orgy was like!” “Er…” Braeburn’s hesitation into total awkward silence told Little Strongheart everything she needed to know. “So, guess we gotta find out together, then?” Little Strongheart smirked. “Heh, guess so.” Braeburn looked back out at the crowd. “So, if ya made it to the orgy, which one of them would ya do first?” Strongheart sputtered, immediately going into a deep blush. “B-Braeburn! I-I’d like to at least know who they are first!” “Well, you’ll have plenty of time for that,” Braeburn chuckled. “But just off looks alone, which one looks the most appealing?” “Hmmm…” Strongheart took a long look at the others, trying to undergo the daunting task of visualizing having sex with each and every one of them. “Maybe the yak? She looks strong.” “Aw, I’m not first on your list? I’m hurt,” Braeburn teased. “Wh-I thought you meant besides you, you jerk!” After a quick absence for an impromptu celebrity meet and greet, Spike returned to see a stallion very obviously eyeing up every single eligible female around. “Enjoying the view?” The dragon smirked, standing beside him, trying to follow his eyes to see which one he currently had his sights on. “Yeah…” Feather Bangs nodded. “I’m so lucky that I got a chance to join, I can’t believe I get to be surrounded by such beauty!” “Hah, I know what you mean…” Spike smirked, eyeing up a few of the ladies in particular. Feather Bangs let out a dramatic sigh, flipping his mane to drape his hoof over his forehead. “And yet that beauty comes with a terrible cost. How am I supposed to choose which one to pick?” “What do you mean?” “I’m trying to figure out who’s gonna be the one for me. I mean, I know I have a whole month to decide before the orgy, but with all these lovely beauties around me, knowing I’d have to choose only one of them…Ohhh, it’d break my heart to have to break their hearts!” Feather Bangs hung his head low in solemn angst, but Spike leaned back with bemused laughter. “H-Hey, I’m being serious!” “Ahaha…sorry, it’s just…who said you had to choose just one?” Feather Bangs blinked in confusion. “Wait, but I heard that others find love during this thing!” “I mean, yeah, that can happen, but it’s not a requirement or anything,” Spike casually shrugged. “It’s an orgy, dude. We’re all gonna be going at it for the whole night! You think we’re just gonna stick to one partner the whole time?” “Well…now that I think about it…I guess not…” Spike put his arm around Feather Bang’s shoulder, using his hand to adjust where the pony’s head was facing. “Look, Cadence is very happily married to Shining Armor, but I guarantee that she’d give you some mindblowing head if you asked her during the orgy.” The idea that was now planted in his mind was enough to make Feather Bangs immediately blush. “Take it from a veteran and an expert on love, it’s all gonna be fair game at the orgy. Though others certainly have their preferences. Nothing wrong with getting more intimate with that special someone, but you’ll probably have a better shot finding them by actually getting to know them all instead of gazing at them from afar.” Feather Bangs let out a shaky, nervous exhale. “A-All of them? I’m gonna have my hooves full…!” “Hey, you got a whole month,” Spike gave Feather Bangs an encouraging pat on the back. “Good luck, dude.” Windy Whistles let out an energetic cheer. “Whooo! It feels good to be back!” “I know what you mean!” Ember said, pumping her arms as if she was warming up. “So glad I get another chance!” “Oh for sure!” Windy nodded. “I mean, I probably couldn’t pick a better way to go out, but oooh, the things I heard about the fun everyone had last year! I gotta stay strong so I can see what it’s like!” Ember clenched up her fists with determination. “Last time I got too needy and desperate, and I ended up taking Spike down with me, but not this year! I’m gonna keep myself in check!” “Yeah!” Windy cheered, matching Ember’s energy. “I’ve learned from last year, too. No baking for me this month! A-At least, no baking any cakes…” All of Ember’s fiery momentum screeched to a halt. “Huh, you bake? Didn’t think you were the type.” Windy sheepishly grinned. “Well, I’m no expert at it or anything, but I’d like to think of myself as pretty good at it!” “Huh! That’s neat!” Ember grins with a realization. “Ooh, Spike told me about these things he’s had called ‘sapphire cupcakes’, do you think you could make those?” Windy stared at Ember like she just grew a second head. “I…haven’t cooked with gemstones before, but…I think I could try it out if I had the recipe!” Ember pumped her fists. “Yesss!” “Well, if I manage to figure it out, promise me the cupcakes are the only thing you’ll eat, okay?” Windy said, giggling to herself. Ember found the request a bit strange, but totally reasonable. “Yeah sure!” Windy pursed her lip. The easiest thing would be to just ask Spike about what Ember was talking about, but what if he wanted to have some too? She didn’t have a problem making extras if she had enough, but could she guarantee her own safety against two potentially horny dragons? But how costly are sapphires? Surely Rainbow’s friend Rarity could find some, but what if she thought she was making them for just Spike? She did seem like the fiercely jealous type. Maybe she could ask for the favor of Princess Celestia, but if the princess wanted something special in return, could she really turn down the princess like that? How could she possibly pass up such an opportunity…? Windy’s train of thought was interrupted by Ember interjecting. “Well, I can’t wait until you figure it out! I’m gonna go catch up with Thorax, see you later, Rainbow Dash!” Cadence watched with a smile as everyone was happily chatting and getting excited for the upcoming month. But Shining noticed that despite Cadence’s big smile, her chest was rising and lowering with a slightly irregular rhythm. Although subtly, she was breathing heavier than usual. He put a reassuring hoof on her back. “You doing alright, dear?” Feeling the warm touch of her husband managed to calm her breathing just a bit. “I am, I’m just hoping that everything turns out alright this year. There’s a lot of pressure as host, you know.” “You’re not gonna start Twilighting, are you?” Shining teased, poking her in the side. “I think you’ll be able to ground me before I get to that point,” Cadence chuckled. “C’mon, it’s gonna be fine!” Shining reassured. “Or did you forget all those long nights where we tested everything out?” “Oh, believe me, I remember, sweetie.” “So it’ll all be fine! Just enjoy how happy we’re making everyone, alright?” Shining gestured out towards the crowd again, prompting Cadence to take another look. Cadence saw all the happy faces, all the excited chatter of friends, the casual and teasy flirting, the laughter from memories of previous years. “...Thanks, Shining, I needed that.” “And if you’re still nervous, then why don’t we go back inside for some…’stress relief’?” Shining winked. Cadence was surprised by her husband’s suggestion, but not opposed to it. “You think we can just sneak away after that speech? Won’t all of them wonder where we went?” Shining merely waved a dismissive hoof. “Eh, Twilight or Celestia can handle things. C’mon, we only have today left to be free!" Cadence could see that Shining’s mind was already made up. “Oh, alright, but I get to pick the first five positions!” > Day 1: Destiny Bondage > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Shining Armor eagerly sprung out of bed, stretching out his hooves and trotting in place to wake himself up. “Whew! Alright, first day of November! You know what that means!” Princess Cadence slowly turned over in bed, wrapping herself in more of the sheets. She cracked an eye open to check the time, her face immediately turning into a scowl. “Nnngh, does it have to be so early in the morning?” “C’mon,” Shining gently nudged Cadence with his hoof. “You’ve gotten out of bed earlier than this.” “Usually we don’t stay up making love until midnight when that happens…” Cadence’s ordinarily chipper and gentle tone was raspy and agitated. “Oh, so are you saying you didn’t enjoy last night?” Shining playfully teased. There was an extended period of silence before Cadence reluctantly sat up straight, her eyes still closed as she threw the covers off her body. “Just gimmie a bit to get ready…” Thirty minutes later, Cadence was finally prepared. Prettied up after combing out her bedhead in the bathroom, but still lacking the usual golden accessories she was often seen with in public. “Alright, let’s get this started,” she yawned, scratching her cheek. “Just like we practiced, alright?” “I know, I know…” Cadence rolled her eyes, having heard this cautious tone a million times before, if not by her husband, then by her sister-in-law. “I’m serious!” Shining warned. “Since we both need to cast the spell at the same time, we need to cast it in the right way, too. Who knows what might go wrong if we aren’t synced up properly?” “Right, because your Chastity Shield has never gone wrong or had an unexpected setback in any other year,” Cadence smirked. “And yet which one of us has the better track record, dear?” Cadence’s smug smile was instantly shot down. She couldn’t argue with the results. “Fine, just like we practiced.” Shining and Cadence faced each other, taking a deep breath as their horns started to glow with magic. They closed their eyes as they focused on casting the spell, doing it exactly like they had rehearsed. Their slow breathing easily synced up with each other. Even without looking at each other, their chests rose and fell in tandem. They stood up on their hind hooves, supporting each other by leaning forward and pressing their front hooves together. Their bodies tensed up with unease. This was the point of no return, but as long as they kept concentrating… Their heads slowly leaned forward, until the tips of their horns touched. The couple let out a quiet grunt as the magic from Cadence flowed into Shining Armor, and vice-versa. The magical energy was not painful or unpleasant, but the corners of Shining and Cadence’s lips twitched with worry as they focused. Shining could feel Cadence’s magic flowing through his horn and down his body. Warm and soft, like a tender hug or a blanket wrapped around you in bed. The tenderness lingered in his chest before it went straight to his crotch, which felt a lot more intense than a loving hug. Shining had to resist the urge to arch his back in order to maintain the magical link to Cadence. Cadence, however, felt a cooler magic from Shining. Cooler, but still loving and strong, like finding shade in the middle of a sunny day or a refreshing jump in the pool. His magic seemed to envelop all of Cadence’s body before it flowed towards her crotch. The princess shuddered and stamped her hoof in place, trying to concentrate on only the spell, but that fleeting, tingling feeling she felt… She knew it was only the first day, but that little rush she felt was just so satisfying. If she could just feel it again, or better yet…make Shining feel it, too… Once the tingling had subsided, the two opened their eyes and looked down. Their genitals were surrounded by the glow of the other one’s magic aura, before it faded away with a very distinct clicking noise. “Alright, Chastity Shield Version 6.0.2 is a go!” Shining puffed out his chest, proud of the successful casting. “Now neither of us will be able to cum unless we both perform the unlocking spell together.” “Does it have to sound like you just patched a video game?” Cadence snarked. “Who’s the one that came up with the idea, here?” Shining said defensively. “Well, it was better than your original idea of just ‘having the key’ to the other one’s lock.” Shining rolled his eyes. “Yeah, that turned into a bad idea the moment I realized you could just turn my shield off and make me lose whenever you want.” “Oh come on, Shining,” Cadence sidled up to her husband’s side, making her eyes as big and shimmery as possible. “You don’t really think I’d do that to you, right?” Shining tilted his head and raised an eyebrow. The uncomfortable silence alone was enough to make Cadence concede. “Fair enough...” With the immense amount of magic used to cast the spell finally starting to take a toll on his body, Shining leaned against the bed. “Whew…at least it’s smooth sailing from here!” Cadence climbed back into bed, considering the possibility of catching a few more hours of sleep. “I’m glad you figured out how to make it work for mares, hon.” She let out a yawn as she slipped underneath the covers. “Well, I don’t mean to brag,” Shining chuckled. “But I think this is the best iteration yet! I should go tell Sunburst about this…!” “You go do that, hon…” Cadence smacked her lips as she closed her eyes. The spell didn’t drain her energy to the same degree as her husband, but she was still tired for different reasons. As her mind started to clear and her body started to relax, Cadence’s hoof rested on her belly underneath the covers. If there was no more risk of losing, then surely it wouldn’t hurt to indulge in just a little bit, right? The tip of her hoof slowly moved downwards… “Gyah!” Shining Armor jolted with a yelp, nearly falling onto his flank as he scrambled to stay standing. “Something wrong?” Cadence asked, not even opening her eyes. “I-It’s…nothing. Probably just…a side effect of the spell, it’ll wear off,” Shining said, his reassurance more for himself than for Cadence. Cadence let out a short grunt, already falling back asleep as her hoof lazily grazed against her pussy lips. Shining tensed up his shoulders as he felt another tingle. “I…I think I’ll go see Sunburst for a bit.” He started making slow, cautious steps out of the door, worried that something might set him off. “Make sure not to sleep in for too long, sweetheart.” “Have fun dear…” Cadence mumbled, her hoof falling to her side as sleep finally took over. > Day 2: Boiled Hard > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- “It’s so nice to finally meet up with you guys again! I feel like we haven’t hung out in like, forever!” Spike said, walking along the rocky path between Ember and Thorax. “Mmhm, usually we meet up in Ponyville, but this is a nice change of pace! It’s good to be home!” Ember nodded, taking in the ever-growing smell of brimstone. “Yeah, m-maybe we can…meet in the Changeling Kingdom next time?” Thorax’s breathing was heavy, his body’s natural walking sway had a very noticeable stagger to it. “Are…you doing alright, Thorax?” Ember asked. Spike turned his head to see Thorax sweating buckets. “Yeah, dude, you’re not looking so hot…” “No, I’m not hot!” Thorax immediately deflected. “I, I mean I am hot, but not like…I-I’m fine, really!” The sweat that dripped off Thorax’s face immediately started to sizzle and evaporate the moment it hit the rocks beneath them. “Look, the Dragon Lands aren’t suited for everyone. You don’t have to play tough for us,” Ember spoke with a genuine concern and seriousness in her voice. “If it’s too hot to handle, then just say so.” “Or, y’know, just…transform into a dragon so you can take the heat?” Thorax dismissively waved his hoof. “It’s fiiiine! I’m fiiiine…!” he said, his voice getting lighter and dizzier by the second. “Alright, well, we’re here!” Ember gestured to the majesty that was her homeland: smoky clouds, and spires of rocks as far as the eye could see. But most importantly, the river and pools of lava that now flowed everywhere. “O-Oh! Wow, that’s a…lot of lava…” Thorax let out a shaky laugh as a defense mechanism. “Yep! Finest lava pools around!” Ember dragged her foot against the rocks, revving her legs up before sprinting towards the lava, leaping in with a cannonball. Not wanting to be left behind, Spike ran towards the pool, gracefully swan-diving into the pool. “Eeep!” Thorax scrambled backwards to avoid the inevitable splashing as Ember and Spike resurfaced. Ember swam to the edge of the pool, “You coming in, Thorax? The lava’s great!” Thorax took a cautious step towards the dragons, immediately flinching upon nearly stepping on a stray drop of lava. “Y-Yeah, I think I’m gonna change into something more comfortable first…” Ember rolled her eyes. “Finally.” A flash of green flame rose up and surrounded Thorax’s body. The fire disappeared as fast as it showed up, and Thorax the changeling was gone. In his place, was a tall, somewhat lanky dragon, with purple scales, a lavender underbelly and horns, and aquamarine spikes lining his head, back, and tail. “Is this better?” “Ah fuck, he’s cute…” Ember and Spike quietly cursed in unison. Thorax cautiously walked towards the edge of the pool, wincing the entire time as he gingerly dipped his toe into the lava. He immediately recoiled upon first contact, but as he tried again, he was relieved his new scales weren’t immediately getting singed by the lava. His eyes widened, the scorching lava actually felt pleasant now. He slowly slipped into “Aaah…Oooh, this is nice…” “Better than a hot tub?” Ember teased. “Mmm, I dunno about that…” “Well, we have all day to change your mind.” Spike swam to the edge, leaning against the rocky wall, putting Thorax in between the two dragons. “So, what’s new with you two? Any good gossip?” Ember leaned her head back in thought. “Well, Smolder’s still pretty bummed that she can’t do her rivalry with Ocellus.” “Yeah, well, Ocellus said she wanted a break this year,” Thorax nodded. “I mean, I get it, but it’s kind of a shame. Smolder really seemed to like competing with her… That, or she just wanted a rematch.” “If she wants to go against a changeling, there’s still two she could go up against,” Spike pointed out. Ember curled her lip, genuinely considering the idea for a second. “Ehhh, it’s not the same, really. The rivalry between her and Ocellus was something special, you know? She can’t suddenly go and declare a new rival just like that!” “Speaking of dragons and changelings, have you seen Mina around lately?” Thorax could barely keep the smile from growing on his face. “Actually, yeah. I’ve been seeing her in the Dragon Lands a lot lately. Usually she comes to me asking for dating advice,” Ember briefly scoffed. “As if I have any sort of knowledge on that stuff.” “Well at least she’s calling it dating!” Thorax said, almost breaking out into laughter. Spike immediately caught on. “Why? What’s Pharynx calling it?” “Well first, he says it’s ‘none of my damn business’ like I don’t already know.” Thorax rolled his eyes. “But he insists on leaving the hive so that he can gather intel on weaponry and defenses from ‘trusted sources’.” he said with exaggerated air quotes. “So he’s going off to read comic books in Fillydelphia,” Spike translated. Thorax nodded. “I’ve been humoring him, but honestly, I kinda wish he’d just say the word ‘date’ at this point. It’s like he’s afraid of admitting it.” “Who knows? Maybe denying his feelings is what Mina likes about him,” Ember thought out loud. “Doesn’t that sound familiar…?” Spike whispered to Thorax, nudging his side with his elbow as the two guys quietly snickered. Ember briefly puffed some smoke out of her nostrils. “Well, what about you, Spike? What’s going on in Ponyville?” “Oh, you know, the usual,” Spike shrugged. “Twilight’s excited for the whole month. Though she’s kinda squicked out considering her mom’s joining in this year.” “Mmm, I’m sure you can relate,” Ember nodded solemnly. Spike scoffed as he leaned down into the lava. “Tch, what do you mean? It’s not like I ever knew my mom, and I don’t really see Twilight as my mom…anymore.” “Maybe not, but Twilight’s mom was raising her when she was young, she was probably raising you, too.” Ember noted. “So Twilight’s mom would kinda be like your mom, too.” Spike went silent, sinking lower into the lava until only the top half of his head showed. As the lava heated up his scales, Ember’s logic started to echo in his mind. He started thinking of his memories of Twilight Velvet, and how gentle and caring and motherly- “...OH SHIT YOU’RE RIGHT.” Spike immediately popped up, clutching his head. “Ohhh why is it suddenly so weird now!?” Ember softly chuckled to herself. And while she was at it… “And Thorax, while you may not like her, Chrysalis did hatch you and raise you while you were young. Technically it’s like your mom’s in, too.” Thorax joined Spike in grabbing his own head, trying to block the intrusive thoughts. “Aaagh! Don’t make this weird for me, too! Oh NO, is that why she keeps coming back to the hive to lecture me?!” Even during November, the western desert town of Appleloosa was harsh and hot. But depending on what you were after, whether it be the juicy apples from the orchard, the roaring buckball games, or the colorful locals, it was worth taking the heat. “Alright, you got this…” Feather Bangs wiped the sweat from his forehead as he looked around. There were ponies everywhere, wearing different hats to shade them from the sun. Though the ponies weren’t what he was looking for… Among the sea of ten-gallon hats, a pair of feathers stuck out. And upon seeing the odd hat out, Feather Bangs started to move. The feathered headband was being worn by a buffalo, walking the streets of Appleloosa by herself, until she heard a galloping behind her. She turned around to see an earth pony stallion with frosted tips stopping for her. “Oh, uh…hi!” Little Strongheart awkwardly waved. She tilted her head and pursed her lips. The stallion looked familiar, but she was certain he wasn’t an Appleloosian. “Do I know you? I swear I recognize you from somewhere.” Feather Bangs flipped his mane and cleared his throat. “Well, we’ve seen each other before, but it’d be my pleasure to be able to meet you.” He stuck his hoof out. “I’m Feather Bangs. We’re part of the No Clop November challenge that Princess Cadence is hosting.” Strongheart’s eyes lit up with recognition. “Ohh!” She happily shook Feather Bangs’s hoof. “I’m Little Strongheart. It’s nice to meet you, Feather Bangs!” Feather Bangs let out a soft chuckle, running a hoof through his mane. “Little Strongheart, huh? Well, with a name like that, it’s no wonder ponies say good things come in small packages.” Strongheart immediately went into a bashful giggle. “Ehehehe…w-well, what brings you all the way to Appleloosa, Feather Bangs?” “I thought it might be nice to get to know the participants,” Feather Bangs explained. “Would make the orgy real special if it wasn’t just Feather banging a bunch of strangers. And well, I wanna know more about you, Little Strongheart. What tickles your fancy?” he said, his hoof brushing against the feathers in her headband. “Oh, really? Well, I’d be happy to spend time with you!”  “That’s great! I’d love to get close with ya,” Mentally, Feather Bangs was pumping his hooves in the air as Little Strongheart started to walk and talk with him. Strongheart’s nervous smile got a bit wider and genuinely happier in relief. Her daunting task of trying to get to know everyone was made a little easier if they were all just coming to her first. > Day 3: One Shy of Six > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Over in Twilight’s School of Friendship, there was a considerable amount of awkward tension as the school’s most notorious group of six sat around a lunchroom table. The ordinarily lively energy and conversation that came with sharing a meal with friends was replaced with nervous tapping against the table, stray coughs, and eye contact everywhere but Ocellus. The changeling decided to directly address the elephant in the room, not wanting to deal with a month of being avoided. “...You know you can talk about No Clop November around me, right?” All at once, the room was filled with quick sighs of relief, awkward excuses, and quick apologies, with a few horny admissions sprinkled in for good measure. “Oh thank goodness! I mean, I didn’t wanna say it but-” “Yona didn’t want to be rude…” “How is it only day three? I’m so HORNY!” “How am I supposed to go up against you now?!” “So it’s fine if I can talk about how much I wanna bang Headmare Twilight in front of you then, right?” “I’m not mad that I’m not in, I chose not to participate this year,” Ocellus explained. “It’s not some sort of sore subject for me.” “Yeah, well I’m mad you’re not in!” Smolder stood up and slammed her hands against the table, sending soup and salad greens flying. “What about us? We had a great thing going on! It’s just…not the same without you!” “Sheesh, Smolder, you act like you two just broke up or something,” Gallus snickered. Smolder’s eyes darted around, quietly sitting back down with a blush on her cheeks. “...It’s still weird that it’s just the five of us.” “Well, on the bright side, if I’m not playing, that means you win this year by default,” Ocellus shrugged. “But that’s not fun at all!” Smolder crossed her arms, slumping on the bench as she pouted. “If I’m gonna win, I wanna at least earn it. I wanna be challenged!” “Fine, go up against Chrysalis then. I’m sure she’d love the competition,” Ocellus said bluntly. Smolder opened her mouth, and quickly shut it again to resume her eating. “...I’ll take the free win.” “So, what’s the competition like?” Ocellus asked, addressing the rest of her friends. “Anyone new catch your eye?” “Oooh! Oooh!” Silverstream excitedly waved her hands, wanting to go first. “I saw a cyborg pony over there! I think they’re gonna be my first!” The whole table paused and looked at Silverstream in confused silence. Ocellus tried to visualize what a cyborg pony would look like, and the rest mentally going through all the participants, trying to narrow down who, in Silverstream’s mind, would qualify as a cyborg pony. Even though he wasn’t entirely sure, Sandbar took a guess. “I…don’t think Kerfuffle is a cyborg, Silverstream. She just has a prosthetic leg.” “Yeah, but it’s probably a cool robot leg!” Silverstream said, undiscouraged. “We’ve been fucking the robots for years, but this year, they get to fuck us!” “Yona no need robot for that!” Yona boasted, wrapping her hoof around Sandbar. “Yona already have fucking machine right here!” Gallus nearly choked on his soup, immediately turning away to cough everything out of his windpipe. As Gallus was struggling to breathe, Smolder thought of her answer. “Hmm, aside from maybe Rainbow Dash or something, there was this cool pirate over there!” “Do you mean an actual pirate or…” Ocellus nudged her head in Silverstream’s direction. “I’m…mostly sure?” Smolder shrugged. “She had the hat and the sword and everything. I thought it was real, but like, if it was just cause she was in her Nightmare Night costume…” Sandbar wrapped his hoof around Yona up to her back and chuckled. “I, uh…think my first choice is already locked in…” “Yeah, but after Yona and Celestia, who are you picking?” Smolder snarked. “Hey, why are you just assuming that my second choice would be-” Sandbar was met with probing stares from the rest of his friends, including Yona. “...Yeah, fair enough,” Sandbar grumbled. “Well, me and Yona saw this other couple over there. It was another earth pony and a buffalo.” “Pony and buffalo remind Yona of Yona and Sandbar!” Yona nodded. “Buffalo look small, but strong! Yona want to see her endurance!” She turned to Sandbar. “Sandbar better be ready.” “Hey, I’ve been doing workouts to get myself stronger for this orgy. See?” Sandbar flexed his hooves, showing his…less than impressive gains. “Sounds like you found a wild west version of yourselves!” Ocellus lightly teased before turning to the last member who hadn’t spoken yet. “What about you, Gallus?” Gallus lightly drummed his fingers against the table. “There was this one dark unicorn that I saw…I think Headmare Twilight talked about how she almost took over Equestria one time,” he said, trying to sound casual. “So I guess I’d pick her. I think it’d be pretty cool to hang out with her, and get to know her and stuff.” “You want her to step on you,” Sandbar flatly called out. “FUCK YOU, SO WHAT IF I DO?” Tree Hugger sharply inhaled through her nose, taking in the natural scent of the flowery fields that blew through the town. Ponyville always had a unique feel to it that Tree Hugger liked. There was something about all the walks of life that came into this small town that warmed her heart. The town was always growing, but it never lost its roots. “View’s nice, isn’t it?” Tree Hugger nodded, unfazed by the fact that she was suddenly no longer alone. “Yeah, I gotta say, I’m seeing a real beauty up here, too,” Feather Bangs grinned, standing right behind the mare. “Oh yeah?” Tree Hugger slowly closed her eyes. “What do you see that’s so beautiful?” Feather Bangs couldn’t help but smirk a bit, given the prompt. “Well…What I see is a true wonder to all ponykind, something that gets my heart racing whenever I look at it!” “Aw, dude, I feel the same way!” Tree Hugger looked across the small town, feeling her heart swell up with happiness. Feather Bangs’s eyes looked over Tree Hugger’s body staring out at the town. “Yeah…It’s as beautiful as the first time I laid my eyes on it…” Tree Hugger kept nodding along, agreeing with Feather Bangs’s sentiments. “Totally…This place is like, really special, ya know?” “Admittedly, I haven’t seen much of it before, and it makes me kinda sad knowing I missed out for most of my life!” Feather bangs put a hoof on his heart, bowing his head with a solemn sadness. Still staring out at the town, Tree Hugger frowned in sympathy. “Ohh…but that just means you have to make up for lost time, right?” “Make up for lost time…” Feather Bangs took a hesitant step forward. ”Yeah…I’m sure she would appreciate it…” Tree Hugger tilted her head, not in confusion, but in contemplation. Now that she thought about it, Ponyville did have a bit of a “she” vibe to it… Step by step, Feather Bangs worked up the courage to stand at Tree Hugger’s side. “Well, no time like now, right? There’s a lot of beauty I’d like to take in…” Tree Hugger laughed, immediately putting a hoof around Feather Bangs’s shoulder. “Oho, right on, dude, let’s do it!” “Wha-right now?” “Yeah, like I said, make up for lost time, right?” Tree Hugger finally turned her head to look at Feather Bangs, her expression still just as mellow and relaxed as ever. “I mean, I’m down for doing it right here.” Feather Bangs didn’t see a hint of lust in Tree Hugger’s eyes, and yet what she was proposing only on the third day… “And after that, I know there’s like, a whole lot of other spots around town we can do it! It’ll be awesome!” “Oh! That sounds…great?” Feather Bangs hesitantly smiled, having no idea what he was agreeing to. > Day 4: Cozy Crusading > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Cutie Mark Crusaders Clubhouse was a familiar stomping ground for Babs and Discord, a fairly secluded place, perfect for planning. “Well, just you and me, Dissy,” Babs said with a shrug, standing behind the podium that Apple Bloom usually used to direct the crusader meetings. “A shame, really, now I won’t be able to sleep through the whole thing and pretend I was listening,” Discord teased, fitting himself around the rungs of the ladder. “Yeah, sucks dat it’s just the two of us dis year,” Babs sighed. “...But at least we can both fit comfortably in da clubhouse!” Discord eyed a rustling outside the window. “...Yes, plenty of room to stretch my legs, at least.” “Kinda wish Apple Bloom was here, though,” Babs lamented, leaning against the podium to sigh. “Or Gabby. Not dat you ain’t fun, Discord, but schemin’s more fun when there’s more heads, ya know?” “Oh, I agree.” Discord hummed, already raising up his claw. “I’m sure the two of us can conjure up some truly special plans, but with all the extra space, a third member would certainly make things more…” With a snap of his fingers, an apple tree outside started to bend as if being blown by the mightiest winds, before snapping back upright, catapulting several apples, and one pink pegasus, right through the window and into the middle of the clubhouse. “...Cozy.” “Uh…heeeey!” Cozy Glow immediately struck the most casual pose she could while spattered with leaves, branches, and apple juice. “Fancy meeting you two here! Heh heh…” Babs stepped down from the podium to help Cozy to her hooves. “The fuck are you doin’ here, girl?” Discord looked down at the pegasus, not letting up on his glare. “Indeed. Unless you’ve truly flown the coop, I can’t imagine pretending to be a bird was on your to-do list today.” “What, I can’t pay a visit to two good friends?” Cozy forced the biggest grin she could muster, but even she was starting to sweat nervously. Even Babs had to raise an eyebrow. “Hidin’ in the trees ain’t exactly ‘payin a visit’, Coze.” The facade quickly dropped. “Fine, fine. I was kinda hoping you two could help me out. Chrysalis is probably…definitely really mad at me for last year, and-Waugh!” Discord plucked up Cozy Glow by the wings, walking her to the door like a trash bag. “Well, that simply sounds fascinating and not at all like our problem, so…ta-ta!” “Discord, wait!” Babs called out right before Discord wound back for a football toss. “Can’t we help her out as a friend?” Discord shot Babs a perplexed look, spinning Cozy to see her desperate smile. “...Ugh...” He unceremoniously tossed Cozy back down into the center of the room. “Fine, what exactly do you want from us?” “Just making sure Chrysalis doesn’t kill me or anything,” Cozy plainly stated. “Not that I don’t deserve it or anything, but I’d like to do my scheming without needing to worry about her breathing down my neck!” “Tch! What do we look like, bodyguards?” Discord scoffed. “What are we supposed to get in return for your ‘protection’?” “Well, I’ve been cooking up some ideas for some of the other participants, though I can’t exactly execute them all by myself, if you know what I’m saying…” Cozy winked. Babs immediately went to Cozy’s side. “Come on, Discord! A little more help ain’t gonna hurt us!” Though the two mares giving him puppy-eyes did nothing to sway his heart, Discord reluctantly sighed and crossed his arms. “Ugh, fine. If there’s anything I know about Cozy, it’s how sadistic her plans are.” “Aw, thanks, Dissy!” Cozy beamed. Babs wrapped her hoof around Cozy, both of them slipping into their devilish mindset. “So, what was that about those plans you were cookin’ up?” “Oh, I’m glad you asked! Let’s start with the newbies…” As the two mares started laying out ideas and plots, Discord watched and rolled his eyes with a small smile. “Seems like the Cutie Mark Crusaders are accepting just about anyone these days…” --- Captain Celaeno whistled to herself as she mopped up the deck of her ship. It was lonely out in the remote land between Equestria’s towns, and with the rest of her crew taking a break and leaving her to do her No Clop challenge in privacy, it felt a bit silly for her to consider herself a captain without a crew. But she still had her ship, and she needed it to look as good as possible. By sunrise tomorrow, she’d be taking off into the skies, touring all the different locales of all the other participants. She put the mop back in the bucket, wiping the sweat off her forehead as she took a moment to admire the shining deck. “Phew…looking good!” “I’ll say, you did a great job-” Celeano immediately whipped around, drawing her sword from her scabbard and pointing it at the sudden new voice behind her. At the other end of her blade was a stallion with frosted tips, who looked just as panicked as she was. The deep tone she heard was now a high-pitched, shaky whimper. “U-Uuuhh…h-hi?” Celaeno kept her sword out. The pony looked vaguely familiar, but she couldn’t be too sure. “You’ve got five seconds to explain yourself,” She warned, lifting up the stallion’s chin with the tip of her blade. “How did you get on my ship?” Feather Bangs gulped, feeling the sharp poking right near his throat. “I…I just…c-climbed on board?” Just as Feather Bangs tried to lower the blade with his hoof, it went right back underneath his chin. “We’re pretty far from the nearest town…” Celaeno growled. “It’s hard to believe you’d just stumble across this ship…not unless you’ve been looking for me.” “Actually, I kinda was-” Feather Bangs spoke, before immediately realizing that was probably not the best way to phrase it. Celaeno stared daggers at the stallion. “Well then…you found me. Was it worth it?” Feather Bangs felt the tip of the sword get closer to his throat. “Waitwaitwaitwait! This is a huge misunderstanding!” Celaeno’s face softened, but kept her sword right where it was. “...I’m listening.” “M-My name’s Feather Bangs, I-I’m also doing the No Clop November thing l-like you!” he tried to explain, his hooves trembling underneath him. Celaeno tilted her head and squinted. Maybe this stallion did look a little familiar… “I…just…wanted…to talk?” Feather Bangs’s breathing was heavy and staggered with the steel still at his throat, until he finally felt some relief as Celaeno pulled her blade back. “Alright then, Feather Bangs, I’m listening.” Celaeno still looked angry, but at least the sword was sheathed. “Alright, um…I just...wanted to…uh…” Feather Bangs’s entire body was still trembling. A cold sweat was dripping down his back. He was fairly certain he had some lines ready to go before climbing aboard. Something about seeing her as a treasure and a ship sailing. But his mind was struggling to fill in the rest, and his mouth was barely getting out what his mind wanted to say. Celaeno let out a slightly guilty sigh, crouching down to get to eye-level with the stallion. “I’m not gonna hurt you. Just…why’d you bother coming all the way here?” “I-I…I just wanted to like…talk or something? I don’t know?” “Well, we clearly got off on the wrong foot. Though I’m kinda impressed that you came all the way here just to talk.” She looked down at Feather’s hooves. “Maybe when you stop shaking, we can have that talk you wanted, alright?” she said, ruffling up his mane. “O-Okay…” > Day 5: Getting a Leg Up > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The double doors of Hope Hollow’s fashion shop burst open, with its owner dragging her potentially new customer inside. “Hey! Hey! Easy! Easy! You got me inside!” Celaeno protested, trying to keep the pony from tearing off her sleeve. “Oh, so sorry!” Kerfuffle spat out the sleeve, grinning sheepishly. “It’s just, I just took one look at ya and went ‘Oh. My. Gosh. I have to work my magic on you!’” Celaeno tried to wipe the drool stain off. “Well, that explains why the moment I stepped foot in town, I heard a loud squeal and was suddenly being dragged away before I could say anything…” “Well, I’m just…so excited! Oooh, this’ll be a fun little project for me!” Kerfuffle grinned as she swarmed the parrot, examining her from all angles. Celaeno kept turning her head in all directions, trying to track the pegasus. “Not that I’m not grateful or anything, but could I at least get your name before you do anything for me?” Kerfuffle took a step back to give Celaeno some room to breathe, though her hooves kept on moving, trotting in place or nervously rubbing against each other as she spoke. “Oh of course! Where are my manners?! I’m Kerfuffle, we, uh, actually met a while ago over at the Crystal Empire! Well, met as in we’ve been in the same place together. I guess you didn’t see me, but I definitely saw you! Aaaand that makes me sound like I’ve been stalking you. Ohhh I’m making this super weird aren’t I? I’m gonna stop talking now before it gets worse, like right now. Ohhhhh gosh.” That was…quite a lot for Celaeno to take in. Though the one thing she could tell was that Kerfuffle was just barely keeping it together. “Allllright then. Well, I’m Captain Celaeno! It’s a pleasure to meet you, Kerfuffle.” “Oh believe me, the pleasure’s all mine!” The pegasus let out a nervous laugh, her eyes darting around to look everywhere. Celaeno decided to look around, too. Given how she was dragged in, she finally got a chance to look around, and see all the clothes and sewing equipment. “So…what exactly is this…project you wanted to talk about?” She looked over at a rack of clothes. All of them stylish and colorful, but all pony-sized. “Doesn’t look like any of these clothes…fit me…or match my style…” “Oh, actually, I wasn’t thinking of clothes. I was thinking of working on something a little lower…” “Lower?” Celaeno’s cheeks instantly felt blood rushing in. “L-Look, I’m flattered and everything, but it’s still really early in the month for-” “Not that, ya dingus!” Kerfuffle lifted up her left hind leg. Celaeno looked at Kerfuffle’s leg, finally noticing the prosthetic. She looked down at her own right leg. “Huh…” “I know, right? It’s like we’re practically sisters!” Kerfuffle grinned, sidling up to Celaeno. “Well, sisters with really different parents!” “Heh, so what, you wanna make me a new leg?” Celaeno mused, looking down at the pony. “I mean, if that’s alright with you! I just thought it’d be cool for you to switch it up a little! Plus, it’s been looking a little…dinged up. No offense.” Celaeno looked closer at her crystalline leg. The green gemstone peg, while still keeping most of its luster over the years, now had some noticeable cracks, chips, scratches, and a single set of bite marks. Given who she was hoping to keep company with later, perhaps it’d be in her best interest to not be eaten out in the wrong way. “Well…I have been kinda attached to this version, but I guess having a backup wouldn’t hurt…” Celaeno said with a soft smile. Kerfuffle immediately started squealing and dancing in place. “Ooooh, this is gonna be so good!” In a blur of motion, Celaeno found herself being pushed into a reclining chair, her legs kicked up as Kerfuffle whipped out the measuring tape. As the tape wrapped around the connecting stump, Celaeno took a closer look at Kerfuffle’s prosthetic. “So, you make your own leg, too?” “Oh yeah, it’s just a little something I threw together, ya know.” Celaeno let out a short laugh at the modesty. “Hah! Just threw together, huh? That thing’s shinier than half the stuff in my treasure hoard! Is that real gold?” “Oh, you betcha!” Kerfuffle beamed, turning around to give the bird a better look. “Did the engravings myself, too!” “No kidding! Where’d you get all the gold?” “Why? Trying to find your next place to plunder?” Kerfuffle asked with a saucy waggle of her eyebrows. “Hey, worth a shot,” Celaeno chuckled. As Kerfuffle giggled along, she suddenly gasped in excitement. “Oh. My. Gosh! Do you want yours to match with mine?” “Well, I-” “Ooooh, it’s perfect! My left leg, your right leg, it’s like a matching set! It’ll be like we’re besties!” The sheer amount of enthusiasm from Kerfuffle nearly left Celaeno at a loss for words. The past ten minutes had flown past in a blur, all because of how energetic this one pegasus was. “...Besties, huh?” Celaeno saw Kerfuffle’s eyes twinkling with eager anticipation. She could hear the delighted squeal in her voice slowly rising from her throat, begging to be released out into the world. “Well, how can I say no to such a generous offer?” Babs Seed was seated outside the fence of Sweet Apple Acres, scribbling down more notes to herself. She had some general ideas in place, but they all seemed so…generic. One of the major hurdles was an unfamiliarity with the new participants. At best, she had a shallow understanding of who they were, but not enough to plan elaborate sabotage missions on yet. She let out a resigned sigh. Maybe Cozy or Discord had some more information. She straightened up her papers and stood up to bring them over to the clubhouse. Even as she walked, Babs was still trying to scheme. Who would be the best target to aim for first? One of those students seems like an easy bet, or she could take advantage of the new players and their lack of experience. Maybe one of the princesses? But would she even have the skill to get one of them? Maybe she should save that for- Babs suddenly found herself knocked onto her rear, her papers scattered over the ground. She looked up to see the stallion that she had bumped into. “Woah! Sorry there!” Feather Bangs said, offering a hoof to help her up. “I should’ve watched where I was going.” “Augh, your fine, wasn’t payin’ attention neither…” Babs grabbed onto Feather’s hoof, being pulled up to her hooves. After helping Babs up, Feather Bangs noticed all the papers, immediately moving to pick them up for her. “Here, allow me.” Babs’s eyes widened in a panic. She instantly recognized the stallion from how Apple Bloom and the other Crusaders described him. She was sure one of those scattered papers had her notes on him. She had to make sure that he didn't grab any of her files, or at the very least, not the one with his name on it. “Nononono, you don’t haveta-” It was too late. Feather Bangs had already picked up a few of the papers, though he hadn’t looked at them closely. “Oh don’t worry, it’s no problem at all!” he casually laughed. Babs scrambled to pick up as many of the papers as she could before Feather Bangs, hoping that at least one of the ones she got was about him. Feather Bangs held a few of the papers in his hoof. The way that Babs was rushing, these papers must have been really important to her. Curiosity got the better of him and started looking at what was written down. Babs had picked up the last of the papers and started leafing through them, relieved that she had Feather Bangs’s notes in her possession. Unfortunately, she looked up to see Feather Bangs scanning her notes. Babs’s writing wasn’t the neatest, but Feather Bangs could see the notes that she scrawled down. He saw things about Twilight getting into romance novels, Chrysalis being overwhelmed by too much love, and Ember’s enjoyment of shiny gemstones. “Huh…” “Yeah I’m gonna need dat back right now!” Babs hurriedly snagged her notes back. “You didn’t see nothin’!” “Heh, a bit late for that,” Feather bangs winked. “I see what you’ve got planned!” Babs nervously blew her mane out of her eyes. “Uh…no ya don’t!” Feather Bangs responded with a mane flip of his own. “Hey now, don’t worry! I won’t tell a soul about your notes! Makes me feel a little bit better knowing I’m not the only one trying to find a date, though.” “...What.” “Aw, you don’t have to hide it from me!” Feather grinned, poking at the papers in Babs’s possession. “You’ve got all those notes about the others cause you wanna sweep them off their hooves and make them swoon over you!” “I…” Babs glanced at the papers, then back up at Feather Bangs. ”Sure, let’s go wit dat.” “Oh, right, I’m Feather Bangs. You’re Babs Seed, right? Your cousin Apple Bloom told me a bit about you! I love what you’ve done with your mane!” “Ah…thanks? Apple Bloom told me a bit about you, too.” Babs laughed nervously, realizing that pretty much everything her cousin said about him was accurate. “Well, I’m glad to meet a kindred spirit here,” Feather Bangs said. “I hope you won’t think of me as competition. I’d hate to be fighting an Apple over the same mare…again.” Babs, still confused but obligated to continue with the lie, nodded along. “Yeah, sure.” “Although, if you want, we could work together, cause there are a lot of lovely ladies to learn about,” Feather Bangs said with a wink. Babs opened up her mouth, but then realized the opportunity she had in front of her. “Actually…dere might be a way we can help each other out…” > Day 6: Mellowing the Harsh > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The frown on Ms. Harshwhinny’s face was stronger than usual. Though to many, it was near impossible to tell there was a difference. She trotted through Ponyville, too absorbed by her own cluttered thoughts to notice anypony trying to get her attention. Despite the cool autumnal weather, Ms. Harshwhinny couldn’t stop sweating. Her breath was heavy and labored, despite the walk not being physically draining on her body. She took a seat on a nearby bench in order to collect herself. “Ugh, I don’t know what’s gotten into me…” she muttered to herself, putting a hoof to her forehead. An exhausted sigh left Harshwhinny’s lips. She shook her head, trying to clear it of all these erratic, distracting thoughts racing through her head. Her latest assignment required her to be traveling all the time. Her schedule was so packed, it felt like there was no time to rest. There were constant reminders ringing in her head about where she had to go, who she had to meet, what she needed to pack, all of it constantly echoing in her mind all at once. Though, all those weren’t nearly as dominant in her mind as the other thoughts that had been haunting her all week. Thoughts that appealed to a less than professional part of her. She couldn’t stop thinking of her earlier conversation with Rainbow Dash. How the pegasus claimed that Harshwhinny would be screaming out her name in a fit of unbridled lust. Just imagining what she could do with her lips left Harshwhinny’s hooves trembling. It was humiliating. To be reduced to such a vulnerable and needy state when she should be better than this. She had entertained the thought of what Rainbow Dash would do while in control, but she relished the idea of putting that brash pegasus in her place. To have Rainbow Dash under her command, shutting her up by making her worship her hooves. She could practically feel her tongue slowly lapping away, the warmth and wetness on her hoof that…actually felt all too real. Harshwhinny’s eyes shot open with a gasp, immediately pulling her hoof away from her crotch. The burning of shame and embarrassment flooded her face, reaching all the way up to her ears. “No…not here, not now!” She chastised herself. She needed to focus her mind on something else. She had business with Miss Cheerilee later today, and she had already wasted enough time- “Woah, dude, you’re like, looking really stressed out.” A startled scream involuntarily left Ms. Harshwhinny’s lips as she turned to see a green earth pony sitting on the bench next to her. “M-Miss Hugger!” Harshwhinny stammered, quickly trying to compose herself. “I…erm…How long were you sitting here?” “For like, a while,” Tree Hugger replied, the same content, non-judgemental smile on her face. “Sounds like you’re dealing with a lot of stuff.” “You could say that, yes,” Harshwhinny sighed. “There’s been several things that have been…clouding my thoughts, as of late.” “Oh, then you probably need this more than me.” Tree Hugger held out a brownie in her hooves, offering it up to Harshwhinny. Offended, Harshwhinny immediately scoffed and recoiled at the sight. “Miss Hugger, what sort of mare do you take me for?” “The kind that would really benefit from eating one of these,” Tree Hugger responded, unperturbed. “Don’t worry, I got more if you want-” “Absolutely not!” Harshwhinny barked. “I may have my own struggles, but I do not need to resort to such…substances! I have standards, Miss Hugger!” “Whaaa…?” Tree Hugger blinked in confusion. “It’s just a regular brownie. I just thought you looked hungry. Or more like thirsty,” she said, motioning to Harshwhinny’s crotch. An appropriately-timed growling stomach confirmed Tree Hugger’s hunch. Harshwhinny nervously cleared her throat and rubbed the back of her throat. “Er…I…I suppose I’ve neglected to eat lunch today…My apologies, Miss Hugger, I’ve jumped to conclusions…” Tree Hugger chuckled, still holding up the brownie in her hoof. “Heh, it’s all good.” Harshwhinny hesitantly grabbed the brownie for herself. She gave it a few investigative sniffs before taking a bite. Her ears flicked as she started to chew. Sure enough, it was just a normal brownie, albeit a delicious, fudgey, chocolatey one. She tried to mask her pleasure, but the quiet satisfied moan gave her away. Tree Hugger silently smiled, watching Harshwhinny fighting back the urge to smile as she quickly devoured the rest of the brownie after the first initial bite. “I’d…hate to take advantage of your generosity, Miss Hugger, but…could you spare some more of those brownies?” Harshwhinny asked, humbly tapping her hooves together. Tree Hugger nodded, turning to place a paper bag in between them. “Go right ahead, dude.” Harshwhinny had another moment of hesitation where her hoof hovered over the bag, but another rumbling of her stomach caused her to forgo all notions of perceived professionalism and scoop up a hoofful of brownies and start munching away. “You said you had a lot on your mind, you wanna say what kind of stuff?” Tree Hugger asked. “Totally cool if you just wanna snack in silence, though.” Harshwhinny made sure to at least finish swallowing before she responded. “Well, if you must know, Miss Hugger. I’ve just had so much on my schedule lately. So many places I need to go, so many ponies I need to see…” “And that’s what’s got you all horny and stuff?” Somehow, the complete and total sincerity in Tree Hugger’s voice made it more embarrassing. “N-No…T-Those are…ahem…Those are an entirely different set of thoughts altogether.” “Ohhh…” Tree Hugged nodded in understanding, turning to look forward before hitting Harshwhinny with “Like what?” Harshwhinny nearly choked mid-chew, having a coughing fit before she could speak to Tree Hugger. “MISS HUGGER!” “Just wonderin,” Tree Hugger shrugged. “You don’t have to say it if you don’t wanna. It’s just the two of us here.” There was a long silence, both mares staring forward as the sun hung high in the sky, the cold autumn wind blowing through their manes. Harshwhinny let out a reluctant sigh, “One of them is about Miss Dash,” she said, unwilling to make eye contact with Tree Hugger. “Aw nice, she’s real cool. I get that,” Tree Hugger nodded, not probing any further. More silence filled the air, before Harshwhinny spoke up again. “She claimed something along the lines that I’d be hers at the end of the month.” Tree Hugger turned her head slightly. “And…do you want that to happen?” Harshwhinny responded by turning her head even further away. “Regardless of whether I want it or not, the thought has been nothing more than an obstacle when I’m trying to get important work done.” “Well…maybe you need to stop treating it like an obstacle.” Harshwhinny paused, curiously tilting her head towards the other earth pony. “What do you mean?” “Instead of fighting it, wouldn’t it be better to go along with it? Instead of treating your thoughts like an obstacle, think of it more like motivation,” Tree Hugger explained. “Like, if you’re thinking about Rainbow Dash’s flanks, instead of getting distracted, just think ‘Wow, just gotta get through this and I’ll be one step closer to having them for myself’, ya know?” Though it did fill Harshwhinny’s mind with more images of Rainbow Dash’s toned flank, the shift in perspective was enlightening. “That’s…not a bad idea, actually…” Just as Harshwhinny settled back into her seat, she sprung back up to her hooves. “My meeting with Miss Cheerilee! I nearly forgot! I have to get going, but thank you, Miss Hugger, for your advice…and for the snack.” “No prob,” Tree Hugger’s warm smile turned into a saucy smirk. “Though if you want, I can give you something better to munch on at the end of the month.” “I…erm…yes, well…! Goodbye!” The blush instantly burned up Harshwhinny’s cheeks as she stammered and stumbled away.  Yona was happily skipping down the streets of Ponyville. Or given that it was Yona, creating minor tremors down the streets of Ponyville. Of course, the amount of frequent shaking and boundless energy was pretty recognizable to anyone. “Hey, um…Yona?” Upon hearing the familiar voice, Yona eagerly stopped in place, mid-hop, to turn around. “Yes, Sandbar?” The pony she was facing looked kind of like Sandbar: a stallion build, a messy mane and tail, but this stallion was a lot more…tanner. Feather Bangs looked from side to side, “Uh, I’m Feather Bangs. You’re Yona, right?” A blush briefly flashed on Yona’s face due to the brief case of mistaken identity. “Yes, Yona is Yona!” “Oh, cool!” Feather Bangs did his trademark mane flip. “So, I’ve heard that yaks are really good at smashing…how about I show you how good my smashing skills are when this month is done? I’ve been known to break a few beds before, just so long as you don’t break my heart…” “Okay!” Feather blinked in confusion. His whole suave attitude dropped in an instant. “Wait, really?” “Really! Yona happy to smash!” Yona happily nodded. “But if Feather talking about actual smashing, Yona fine with that, too!” “I…huh…” Feather Bangs had a bunch of other backup lines ready, and now he was at a loss for words. Yona tilted her head. “Did Feather not want to smash?” “No, not that, just…you said yes faster than I thought.” Yona’s explanation was simple. “Feather remind Yona of Sandbar! Maybe Feather smash like him, too!” Feather Bangs’s heart sunk a bit in his chest. “Oh, uh…Who’s Sandbar?” “Sandbar’s Yona special somepony!” Yona said with pride. “Sandbar also playing in No Clop!” Feather thought back to that October. He vaguely remembered seeing a stallion next to her. Then again, they were in a group of like, five. Plus, there was also that griffon that seemed just as attached to that pony, too… “Well, uh, you still sure about the whole smashing thing?” Feather Bangs hesitantly asked. “I mean, if you already got your special somepony…” “Feather no need to worry! Lots of sex going to happen at orgy! Trust Yona. Would be waste to only have sex with one pony for whole night.” “Yeah, but I don’t wanna get in the way if you two are already a thing. Wouldn’t be right, ya know?” Yona thought about Feather’s conundrum for a second before she came up with a solution. “Ok, Feather can smash Yona either before or after Sandbar, then!” That just made Feather confused. “Wait, I get a choice?” “Mmhm!” Yona nodded. “If Sandbar not smashing Yona, then he probably with Celestia. So Feather can smash Yona instead!” “Ehh…” Feather was still hesitant. The offer was tempting, but Yona’s relationship status was clearly still worrying him. “Oh! Or maybe Feather want to be Yona’s special somepony, too!” “WHAT?!” “If Feather worried about ruining Yona’s relationship with Sandbar, then Yona and Sandbar just make relationship with Feather!” Yona explained, putting her hooves together. “...And Sandbar would be…okay with that?” “Yona can ask.” Feather Bangs was left speechless. As wild of an idea as it was, Yona’s solution was oddly starting to make sense… > Day 7: The Manes in Pain > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ponyville’s peaceful outdoor restaurant scene was promptly interrupted by a near-crash landing by Rainbow Dash. The pegasus ignored the startled onlookers as she rushed over to one of the occupied tables. “Sorry girls, I’m not too late, am I?” “It’s fine, Rainbow Dash, we already ordered for you,” Fluttershy said, tapping her hoof against the table. “Double hayburger with horseshoe fries.” “Sweet!” Dash said as she sat down at the table. “Sometimes I wish that fast and punctual meant the same thing in your world,” Twilight joked. “Hey, it’s not my fault!” Dash said as she tried to defend herself. “I was speedreading through that last Daring Do chapter just to get here, alright?” “Regardless, it’s still nice to spend time with you girls,” Twilight smiled, looking at Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy. “After today, we’ll have made it through the first week!” “Yeah,” Dash unenthusiastically nodded. “Kinda sucks that it’s just us this year, though. I feel like I’m third-wheeling.” Fluttershy shot a look at Rainbow Dash, confused and slightly offended. A sympathetic sigh left Twilight’s lips. “It does feel a bit empty without Pinkie Pie bouncing around and trying to set up the perfect way to have sex with all the winners in one night.” “You’re just saying that cause you want her big box of toys,” Dash laughed, cutting right through Twilight’s wistful wondering. “I can have multiple reasons!” “Yeah, but having them play was fun,” Fluttershy added. “It just doesn’t feel the same with just the three of us.” “Well, the good news is that we don’t have to worry about Rarity sabotaging any of our chances this year!” Rainbow Dash chuckled. “...I hope.” She quickly turned around in paranoia, just to make sure that Rarity wasn’t actually nearby. “Still, I’d love to talk about this sort of stuff with Rarity, Applejack, and Pinkie Pie again,” Twilight said. Rainbow Dash indignantly leaned her elbow on the table, raising an eyebrow. “While you make side-bets on me behind my back?” “You’d be doing the same if Applejack lost every year,” Twilight pointed out. “I…yeah.” Rainbow Dash shrugged, quickly conceding the point. “Well, maybe someday…” Fluttershy giggled. “But if it’s just us three, we might as well make the most of it.” “Agreed.” As the three laughed, the waiter brought out their meals: a double hayburger with fries for Rainbow Dash, a cucumber wrap for Twilight, and a garden salad for Fluttershy. After the trio took a few hearty bites to help fill their bellies, Twilight put her hooves on the table. “So, big question, what’s our main orgy goal this year?” Without hesitation, Dash spoke up. “Easy! It’s gonna be me and Harshwhinny!” She puffed out her chest with pride. “Gonna break that uppity attitude and have her begging for more!” “I don’t know, Rainbow Dash, Miss Harshwhinny seems more like the dominant type,” Fluttershy warned. “Pssh, you think I’m worried about that?” Dash scoffed. “I’m sure she’s got some sort of weakness that’ll instantly turn her into a blushing mess!” “Kinda like you whenever a pair of paws is in your face?” Twilight smirked. Just the mere mention was enough to get Dash’s cheeks all red. “...Fuck you.” Twilight noticed Fluttershy staring up at the sky, lost in thought, her hoof idly poking at her salad. “What about you, Fluttershy? Made any plans yet?” “Oh! Well, nothing set in stone yet,” Fluttershy nervously tapped her hooves together with a sheepish giggle.  “...but I did want to do a threesome with Tree Hugger and Discord this year.” Dash tilted her head and cocked up an eyebrow. “What, you haven’t fucked Discord yet?” “Rainbow Dash, no matter how many times you have sex with Discord, no two experiences are the same.” Fluttershy put her hooves on the table to lean closer to Dash. “Trust me.” “...Can you convince them to make it a foursome?” “I’m sure you’ll be able to get your turn, Rainbow,” Twilight giggled. Both pegasi turned their attention towards Twilight. “Lemmie guess, Twilight: You want weird alicorn horn sex with Celestia?” Rainbow wagered before chugging down her soda. Twilight nervously rubbed the back of her head. “Actually, I think for this year, I wanna have sex with Braeburn.” A wave of confusion hit the two pegasi, unsure if they heard Twilight say the right name or not. Rainbow Dash entered a coughing fit, nearly choking on her drink. “Wait…Braeburn?” Fluttershy asked. “Well, the month brings together all sorts of creatures. Many of whom we may not see in our everyday life,” Twilight said, trying to explain her reasoning. “I want to take advantage of this opportunity and try something new this year!” “I mean yeah, fair enough, but…Braeburn?” Dash said, still in disbelief. “Why not? I think it’d be pretty romantic.” Twilight leaned against the table as her eyes started to twinkle. “The strong apple farmer and the smart princess, both exhausted after a long month and in need of some relief. He’d take me in his embrace before slowly leaning back onto the floor. We’d share a passionate kiss as he lined himself up. We’d look into each other’s eyes, he’d play with my mane with his hoof for a bit, and then he’d say-” Twilight’s serenade was cut short when she heard her friends fail to stifle their snickering. Rainbow Dash was pounding the table, nearly in tears. “Wow, what western romance novel have you been reading recently?” “It was just one idea…” Twilight grumbled, taking a sip of her drink. “Well, I have a good feeling that I know what my mom wants,” Dash rolled her eyes. “Can’t believe that she’s going for round two…” “After how she went out last time, can you really blame her?” Twilight smirked. Dash let out a grumpy sigh. “Well, with no Zephyr or Gilda this year, I guess me and her being in the orgy together isn’t the worst possible scenario…” “Can you at least ask her this year to save some Celestia for the rest of us?” “Shouldn’t you be worried about your own mom taking her first?” “What?! She would nev-ohhhhhh.” Twilight started to cringe upon realizing that was a very real possibility. Rainbow Dash turned to Fluttershy, who had returned to her salad. “Well, you’re lucky at least. Don’t think your mom would be interested in a whole night of wild lovemaking.” Fluttershy looked at Dash with a glare of annoyance usually only reserved for Zephyr. “It is a little funny how each of us has had to deal with someone in our family being in the orgy with us,” Twilight mused. “Yeah, but out of all of them, I’m pretty sure Shining’s the best lay.” Twilight’s expression immediately flattened as she glared at Rainbow. “Seriously?” Rainbow Dash crossed her hooves with an insufferably smug smirk. “Well, I can find out the answer when I fuck your brother and your mom in December!” “Alright, you wanna go there? If your mom’s good enough for Celestia, then-” “Girls please,” Fluttershy sighed as the two started to go at each other. “I just want to enjoy my salad.” After another day of classes at Twilight’s friendship school, Smolder was suddenly greeted with a surprise visit from Ember.  “...Am I in trouble?” was Smolder’s first question upon seeing her. “Why? What did you do?” Ember responded, immediately getting suspicious. Smolder’s eyes quickly darted to the side. “Noooothing?” she said with a nervous grin. Ember raised an eyebrow at Smolder’s grin, but thought nothing more of it as she walked with her. “So, how are things with you and Ocellus?” Ember asked as they walked through the halls. “Alright, I guess.” Smolder shrugged. “She said she was happy to be taking a break this year. I’m still kinda upset about it, but I don’t wanna go up against Chrysalis.” “Mmm, smart,” Ember nodded. “How are things with you and Thorax?” “Not bad. He’s been pretty busy the past few days dealing with his stupid brother, though,” Ember winked. “I know how that feels,” Smolder chuckled. Once they found a secluded enough spot just outside the school, Ember sat Smolder down. “Alright, so, remember the parrot that’s also participating?” “The parrot?” “The parrot! Apparently she’s a friend of Rainbow Dash’s. They wanted to invite us on a ride on her ship!” “Cool!” Smolder was immediately excited, but then stopped to think. “Wait, why? I mean, I’m not gonna say no to going on a pirate ship, but why us specifically?” “Well, from what Rainbow Dash told me, apparently she thinks we’d get along with Celaeno. And that we’d find riding on a pirate ship pretty awesome.” Smolder quickly flipped back to excitement, pumping her fists in the air. “Yeah we would!” Amused, Ember stood back up. “Alright, come on, let’s go tell Rainbow Dash.” “You know Rainbow Dash is the one with a rainbow mane, right?” Smolder smirked. “Yes, Smolder,” Ember rolled her eyes. “Of course I know that…now.” Just as they were about to leave the school grounds to find Rainbow Dash, somepony with saddlebags stepped in front of their path. “Oh hello! What are you two dragons doing here?” Feather Bangs asked in a sultry voice. Ember stared dumbfounded for a few seconds, before she leaned over to Smolder, asking in a tone that could only barely be counted as a whisper. “Which one is this one?” “I…have no idea.” Smolder responded at a normal speaking volume. Catching onto their very blatant conversation in front of him, Feather Bangs flipped his mane. “Allow me to introduce myself. I’m Feather Bangs.” “Oh! Well, I’m Dragon Lord Ember, and this is Smolder.” Smolder gave the pony an awkward smile and wave. “Can we…help you?” “Well I heard that dragons can breathe fire, but…” Feather Bangs clutched onto his chest. “It seems that seeing you two…already lit a fire in my heart.” Ember and Smolder exchanged the same baffled, but amused look to each other. Feather Bangs continued on. “I was hoping that one of you two would add me to the hoard of treasures you have. Cause if we were together, I’d always treasure you.” Smolder quickly covered up her face to hold back a snorting laugh. Meanwhile Ember’s jaw dropped in confusion and shock. “And when I look into your eyes, I can see them shining bright…” Feather Bangs reached into his saddlebag, pulling out two large rubies. “Even brighter than these gems.” The attitude of the dragons did an instant 180. “A-Are those…for us?” Smolder asked, already starting to salivate. “Naturally,” Feather Bangs winked. “They were hard to get, but-” Feather couldn’t get through the rest of his line before the dragons approached. They snatched the rubies out of his hoof and started chomping away. The stallion was stunned into silence. “Mmmh, it’s been a while since I had a good ruby!” Ember moaned with delight. “Nnf, yeah,” Smolder nodded. “You got any more with you?” “Oh! Um, yeah, just one moment…” Feather said as he looked through his bags. Those papers Babs had on Ember were right, just not in the way he expected. > Day 8: Hearts as Strong as Yaks > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- As the train to Appleloosa left the station, Yona stepped hoof into the town for the first time in her life. And almost instantly felt a dizzy spell come across her. “...Oh no.” All that extra fur which kept her warm in the cold mountains of Yakyakistan was now cooking her alive in Appleloosa. She didn’t think that the weather could get this hot at the end of autumn, and the shady areas being sparse didn’t help either. Still, she traveled there on a mission, and no amount of sweltering heat would stop her. …Though it wouldn’t hurt to do this quickly… Thankfully for Yona’s sanity, she found what she was looking for in relatively short time. It helped that buffalo were more distinct from ponies. And since the yak also stood out, it wasn’t hard for Little Strongheart to notice. “Little…Strongheart!” Yona panted, stepping in the middle of the Appleloosan streets. “Yona…found you!” “Oh, hey Yona-” Little Strongheart paused, seeing Yona already drenched in sweat. “Woah, are you alright?” “Y-Yona not used to heat…” Little Strongheart cringed and quickly nodded in understanding. “Yeah, let’s get you somewhere cooler…” The buffalo quickly escorted the yak to the apple orchard, where there was plenty of shade and fresh apples to cool off with. “Aaahhh…! Much better!” Yona sighed in bliss as her entire body relaxed underneath the trees. “No problem,” Little Strongheart smiled, offering Yona an apple, freshly bucked from the tree. “So, what made you come all the way to Appleloosa, anyway? And to talk to me, no less?” Yona took a big bite out of the apple. “Well, Yona saw buffalo and pony at Crystal Empire, and Yona curious what it was like for buffalo to be dating pony, too!” “Wha-you mean like dating advice?” Little Strongheart immediately got flustered. “...Wait, ‘too’?” “Mmhm! Yona with Sandbar!” Yona said, beaming with pride. “He really cute pony!” “Ahhh, I see. Well, I think Braeburn’s pretty cute too, but there’s more to it than that…” Little Strongheart giggled. “Like what?” “Well, he’s really sweet, for starters,” Little Strongheart said, her eyes already had a glimpse of a sparkle in them. “Always putting others before himself. He’s also so enthusiastic, putting everything he has into everything he does!” Yona listened intently, nodding along as Little Strongheart passionately talked about how wonderful Braeburn is. “Oh, and he’s so charming, too! I don’t even know what it is exactly, but it’s just so easy for everyone to like him! I mean, I know he’s friendly and cute and all, but it’s like everyone wants to be with him!” Little Strongheart shrugged, before putting a hoof to her chin. “Especially the stallions…” Yona tilted her head. “Strongheart jealous?” Little Strongheart immediately started waving her hooves. “No no no no no, nothing like that! If anything, it makes me happy that he’s with me! It’s just something I’ve noticed when we go out together.” “Heehee, Braeburn sound like very nice pony,” Yona giggled. “So, what do you see in Sandbar? Aside from being cute, I mean.” Now it was Yona’s turn to start gushing. “Oooh, Sandbar really smart and nice! He very relaxed and calm. He always make friends comfortable and show them lots of neat pony things. But most importantly, Sandbar make Yona happy to be Yona!” “Sounds like we both got somepony we love lots,” Little Strongheart smiled. “Mmhm! Little Strongheart with Braeburn reminded Yona of Yona with Sandbar! Yona think we all have lots in common.” “Well, it’s hard to argue with that. I think we’re gonna be great friends, Yona,” Little Strongheart said, offering her a hoof to shake. Yona grabbed on and shook with vigor, a sparkle in her eyes. “Good! Cause Yona have idea for Yona and Little Strongheart and special someponies,” “Oh yeah? What’s that?” “Couples get together for orgy at end of month!” The proposition made Little Strongheart’s cheeks go red. Not that it was an unexpected proposition. “Ooh, that does sound pretty nice…you thinking we swap partners? Or maybe go for each other?” “Yeah! But buffalo and pony need to be strong, because yaks like to smash!” Yona declared, pounding her hooves together. “Well, I don’t wanna brag, but I’ve got some pretty good stamina…” Little Strongheart smirked, stretching out her legs. “I’m more worried that you might not have what it takes to keep up…” she teased. “Oh, Yona will prove yaks have best stamina!” she huffed, standing up. Though as soon as she stepped out into the sun, the sweltering heat hit her thick fur, and she quietly retracted back into the shade. “...Yona will prove later.” For the Princess of Friendship, a knock at the door of her castle meant she needed to solve a friendship problem in most cases. This was not most cases. “Um…Hello, Feather Bangs! Can I help you with something?” Twilight asked the stallion who was already striking a seductive pose upon opening the door. “Heh, not exactly.” Feather Bangs clicked his tongue, flipped his hair, and winked in that order. “I was wondering how I could help you.” Twilight stared blankly, her jaw hanging slightly agape. “...I don’t follow.” Feather repeated the same flirty motions. “Well, you spend a lot of time doing things for others, when’s the last time someone did something for you?” Feather Bangs’s question actually gave Twilight a reason to stop and think for a moment. “I know you’re a princess…” Feather Bangs stepped forward, grasping onto Twilight’s forehoof and lifting it up, almost ready to kiss it. “…but I wanna treat you like a queen.” Twilight stifled a snorting laugh, deciding to indulge him. “Really? And what would treating me like a queen look like?” “Well,” Another hair flip from Feather as he practically laid down in front of her. “I’d worship your hooves, feed you grapes, tend to those tender wings of yours…” Admittedly, that didn’t sound like a half-bad proposition. She had been feeling a tad overworked lately, and a long full-body massage sounded pretty good… Still, those things felt more suited for Rarity than her.  “And?” Feather Bangs’s ears immediately perked up, confused. “Huh? W-What do you mean ‘and’?” “Well, what you’ve offered does sound lovely, Feather Bangs, but does it really seem like something I’d like?” Feather Bangs staggered back, almost offended. “Are you…are you saying you wouldn’t?” “Nooooot exactly?” Twilight thought on how to break it to him without breaking his heart. “I’m saying that your offer is a bit…much. It’s a lot to offer before you really know someone.” “I mean, that’s kind of the point,” Feather Bangs shrugged. “I’m doing this because I’m trying to get to know everyone better! Plus, it’s not like you’re a total stranger to me, I feel like I know you at least a little bit.” Twilight was starting to understand Feather Bangs’s situation, and given his pick-up lines earlier, it wasn’t too hard to figure out his goal. “Hmm…I think the problem is you’re trying to rush things.” “What do you mean?” “Well, if you really wanna get to know someone better, then you have to take things slowly. A long-lasting relationship takes a lot of time, and a lot of care,” Twilight explained. “Um…alright?” Feather Bangs slowly nodded along, though a look of confusion and slight disappointment still lingered on his face. Twilight playfully rolled her eyes and smiled. “I’m guessing you heard about all those other couples that hooked up during these things, but those didn’t just happen overnight. You can’t just throw yourself at the first pony you see and expect them to instantly reciprocate for quick lovemaking...At least not until the end of the month.” Twilight quietly mouthed the last part to herself. Not catching what Twilight muttered, Feather Bangs tilted his head and squinted. “I know it’s all exciting, but you have plenty of time, Feather Bangs. Lavish gifts and big proposals may work on a few girls, but it’s being able to bond with someone else that makes the relationship special. Why don’t you try taking things slowly? Something nice and simple.” “Slowly, huh?” The gears started to turn in Feather Bangs’s head until he struck upon an epiphany. “I think I might need a little more help on that. Are there some books in your library that you could recommend? …And maybe I could give you a hoof massage as thanks?” “Well, I can certainly help you get some books,” Twilight giggled, stepping aside to let Feather Bangs into the castle. “We’ll see what happens after that.” As Feather Bangs confidently strolled down the hallways, Twilight heard Spike barely keeping his laughter in. “Sheesh, what dating sim have you been playing recently?” “Zip it, Spike,” Twilight snickered. > Day 9: Flock Together > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Kerfuffle looked down, seeing Equestria pass by underneath. Her eyes sparkled with wonder as the wind swept up her mane. “Oooh, I’ve never been up this high before!” Celaeno chuckled as she leaned against the helm of the ship, “Bet ya never went this fast either!” “Oh, definitely not! This is all so exciting!” Kerfuffle leaned over the side of the ship, running her hoof against the clouds just below. She turned her head to the bow, where the bow’s other passenger was. “How’s the view over there?” Tempest’s ears perked up. “Oh, uh…it’s…pretty nice I guess? Probably about the same as the view over there…” “Oooh, lemmie see, then!” Kerfuffle ran over to the front of the ship, trying to squeeze past Tempest to get as close to the edge as safely as possible. “Ope, ‘scuse me!” Watching the sky pass filled Kerfuffle’s eyes with wonder. The bright sun shining high up in the sky, the cold air blowing through the colorful feather-like sails…it compelled Kerfuffle to stand up on two legs and spread her hooves out wide. A secretly nervous Tempest watched Kerfuffle’s hooves start to wobble, and instinctively moved forward to hold her by the waist. Kerfuffle didn’t seem to mind the support, or even notice the look of panic on her face. She cheered and whooped as the wind hit her. Amused at the scene the two ponies were making, Celaeno called out to them. “Hey, if you wanna go below deck, you can see in the clouds!” “Oooh, that sounds like a great idea!” The pegasus grinned as she walked down the stairs of the ship. As Kerfuffle trotted off, Tempest looked up at Celaeno. “So this is what you’re doing now? Gave up piracy and started a life of sky tours for ponies?” she smirked. “Ha!” Celaeno laughed and shook her head, though she had to admit to herself it wasn’t a bad idea for a business venture… “Nah, I just owe her. She doesn’t get to leave her town much, so might as well do what I can.” “I see…but why was I invited? It’s not like I haven’t been on your ship before. And…owe her for what?” Celaeno shrugged as she started to turn the helm. “Let’s just say she’s got some treasures of her own.” Confused, Tempest looked around. Nothing seemed too different on the ship. She turned her attention to Celeano herself. She didn’t see any new accessories or earrings, not even a ring, though that would’ve been an impressive romantic turnaround. It wasn’t until she looked further down. Celeano’s prosthetic clearly underwent a makeover. The old, chipped emerald she attached to her stump was a lot brighter, lacked any signs of damage, and even had some amethysts to make some nice accents. Though she was certain she had seen that gold-plated pattern lining her ankle before… As if to answer her curiosity, Kerfuffle came back, and Tempest took notice of the pony’s prosthetic, which had the same engravings in gold, and the same amethysts on the leg. “Celaeno, the view was fantastic down there!” Kerfuffle said, her eyes still sparkling with awe. “I’ve never seen clouds go by so fast before!” “Well, we’re going at a good pace, should be getting to Manehattan in a bit, so feel free to keep exploring the ship in the meantime!” Celaeno gave Kerfuffle a thumbs up. “Oh, you betcha!” As Kerfuffle wandered around, Tempest looked up at the parrot with a slight smirk. “That’s all it takes to bribe you, huh?” “She’s remarkably persuasive, what can I say?” Celaeno shrugged, noticing that Tempest’s gaze at her leg was a lot longer and had hints of envy. “Why, you want her to make one for you, too?” Tempest immediately turned her head away, the slight pink on her cheeks very prominent on her dark purple fur. “Tch, why would I need It? I still have all my hooves.” “Ya know that’s not what I’m talking about,” Celaeno grinned, tapping a claw on Tempest’s forehead, right below her horn. The blush on Tempest’s cheeks got brighter as she swatted her hand away. “What good’s some accessory going to do? It won’t help me in combat or anything…” “Doesn’t have to. All it has to do is make you look good.” “I don’t need to look good,” Tempest grumbled. Celaeno patted Tempest’s back with a smug grin on her beak. “True, you’re already sexy enough as is.” “Wh-I-No-Did-” Kerfuffle’s curiosity led her back to the helm while Tempest was sputtering and stammering. “Heyyy, whatcha talkin’ about?” “Well, Tempest was just admiring the work you did for my leg, and was wondering if she could have something for her horn to match!” Celaeno ruffled up Tempest’s mane, answering for her. “Hey hey wait, I-” Before Tempest could defend herself, Kerfuffle gasped and squealed. “You want it to MATCH? Oh this is fantastic! I know that you asked me to make something for your horn already, but if you want all of us to match like besties? Aaaaah!” Tempest refused to make eye contact, but she knew that Celaeno was giving her the biggest, smuggest grin that her beak could make. After class hours, Yona sat in one of the classrooms all by herself, concentrating her hardest on writing her assignments. Of course, being all alone didn’t mean Yona was completely focused. She’d look outside to see the leaves falling, or to watch the second hand on the clock slowly tick by, then she’d catch herself, mentally chastise herself, and then get back to work. Solo school sessions weren’t nearly as fun. She missed spending time with her friends to tackle classwork together. Even if it was always sidetracked by their own conversations, laughing and completely forgetting what they were doing… Yona slapped her cheeks to try and refocus herself. She needed to keep quill to paper. Even if it meant no sarcastic quips from Gallus, or Silverstream trying to make origami out of the worksheets, or Smolder nearly falling asleep, or Ocellus trying to get everyone focused, or Sandbar softly chuckling as he watched the chaos unfold… She let out a sigh. She missed Sandbar. If he wasn’t away in Canterlot rendezvousing with “obviously she knew who”. His cute little smile would be a nice…distraction. Yona jolted in her seat, shutting her legs together, mentally chastising herself again. She needed to get things done. This was no time to get some cheap relief! If Sandbar were here, he’d be yelling at her for trying to give in so early. That and possibly flex some more to show how strong he’s been getting. Those strong hooves holding her tight while- A sudden turning of the doorknob made Yona cry out in shock and put her hooves back on the desk as the door opened, and two mares entered. “Oh hey Yona, whatcha doin’ all by yerself?” Babs said, looking around the room. “Yona just…working on work!” Yona nervously smiled. “In an empty classroom?” Cozy asked. “You couldn’t do it in your own room?” “Yona would, but Ocellus is having…movie night.” Yona did a quick eye roll. “Yona want to work without being distracted.” Cozy flew up onto one of the adjacent desks. “Well, we can keep you company. You can take a little break, right?” Yona hesitated. She should be concentrating on work, but she was feeling pretty lonely. “That…sound nice. Yona miss talking with friends.” Babs quickly took the seat on the other side of Yona. “Yeah, I bet. Studyin’s a lot bettah with buds.” “Yona like studying with Sandbar and other friends!” Yona nodded, pushing the desk forward. “Being alone in classroom so boring!” “Speaking of, have you seen Sandbar recently?” Cozy smirked. Babs started to softly chuckle. “Yeah, was tryna show off his muscles or somethin’?” Yona blushed sheepishly, knowing exactly what they were talking about. “Sandbar…working out. Preparing body for orgy.” “By working out?” Babs raised an eyebrow, amused. “What, is he gonna deadlift you onto his dick or something?” “Well, after year with Troubleshoes, Sandbar want to make sure pony body can take long nights of smashing.” “Aaahhhh…” The two mares nodded in understanding. Yona continued. “Even if Troubleshoes not in this year, Celestia is. And Sandbar want to still walk after orgy. So Sandbar been doing lots of exercises.” “Uh-huh,” Cozy nodded. “And he’s constantly trying to flex becauuuuuse…?” “...Yona like seeing him big and strong,” she blushed. “Aww, dat’s sweet,” Babs smirked. “Ya want him to pin you to the wall or somethin’ later?” Yona shook her head, though immediately considered the idea. “Mmm, Yona wouldn’t mind. Yona would love to see Sandbar go rough like yak.” “Really?” Cozy scooted closer to Yona. “I thought you liked Sandbar for his more…gentle approach.” “Yes, but if Sandbar going to make changes, Yona want to see Sandbar go all the way!” Babs sidled up next to Yona. “I mean, nothin’ wrong wit’ bein’ gentle…” “There is something nice about having a pony like Sandbar be tender…” Cozy nodded. Yona looked back and forth between the two mares that now sandwiched her. “What ponies mean?” Cozy leaned in closer, putting her muzzle right next to Yona’s cheek. “Isn’t there something nice about taking it gentle?” she whispered. Babs did the same to the other side. “Yeah, it’s nice to just have someone tenderly takin’ care of ya…” Babs’s hoof gently rested on Yona’s. The second Yona turned her head to look at Babs, she felt Cozy nibbling at her neck. When she turned to face Cozy, Babs kissed her on the cheek. Every time Yona would turn her attention to one of the mares, the other would do something to fluster her. Kiss her cheek, nibble her neck, stroke her hair, blow in her ear…They were simple actions, but Yona was quickly getting overwhelmed by the constant back and forth. “Aaah, what ponies doing?” “Just showing you how nice it is when you go nice and gentle…” Cozy giggled. “Ya don’t need to go hard all the time, sometimes ya just need to be tender…like dis…” Babs leaned forward, pursing her lips, going past Yona and right towards Cozy, giving the pegasus a kiss on the lips, locking lips for only a second. Cozy was stunned, but quickly tried to keep the momentum from grinding to a complete halt by peppering Yona’s cheek with kisses. “F-Feels nice, right?” Babs quickly did the same, using her hoof to slowly move Yona’s down her own body. Cozy saw Yona’s eyes trailing down. Fearing that she might react to Babs’s subtle manipulation, Cozy began whispering sweet nothings in Yona’s ear. “Just relax, and we’ll show you how good it feels…” “Nnngh…aaah…!” Babs brought Yona’s hoof to her crotch, tensing up just a bit as Yona’s hoof rubbed up against her pussy. Yona let out a small gasp, but made no attempt to pull her hoof away. Cozy took it as a sign to do the same with Yona’s other hoof, making sure to lovingly nuzzle against her cheek or nibble her neck to keep the yak placated. Yona felt her other hoof move down, inserting the tips into her pussy. “That’s it…nice and gentle…” Babs whispered, slowly using Yona’s hoof to rub her outer lips.  “N-Nice…and gentle…” With two different hooves guiding her own, Yona was subject to the whims of the two mares around her, as they continued to kiss and nibble and tease her in ways that made her shudder. “Golly, bet that feels good, doesn’t it, Yona?” Cozy said, before giving her neck a quick kiss. “So…soooo goooood!” Yona cried out. Her hooves were being moved slowly, either with circles around her vulva or a slow insertion, yet she felt so pleasured by the experience. Babs lifted her head up to whisper in Yona’s ear. “You love it nice and gentle, don’t you?” Yona panted as her own hoof stroked against her wet clit, guided by Cozy Glow. “Yes! Yona love gentle!” Cozy rested her head on Yona’s shoulder, focusing to help deliver the final blow. “Is Yona gonna be a good girl?” “Y-Yona good girl!” Babs whispered her request in Yona’s ear, making sure her voice was as low and sensual as possible. “You gonna be a good girl and cum for us?” Yona didn’t get the chance to respond. Both mares kissed Yona’s cheeks simultaneously as they moved her hooves to the side, using their own hooves to slowly stroke and rub her pussy to send her over the edge. Yona shuddered as she gave into the pleasure, both mares’ kisses set her cheeks ablaze with a heavy blush, their hooves touching her in all the right ways. As the defeated yak squeaked in orgasmic bliss, changes were occurring all the way over in the Crystal Empire. The display case that housed all the miniature crystal hearts started to rumble and pulse with magical energy, which immediately caught the attention of Princess Cadence. “Ooh! Honey! It’s happening! IT’S HAPPENING!” The crystal heart with Yona’s face imbued into it levitated and aligned itself upright, floating in the air. Still rumbling with energy, the heart began to rotate, spinning faster and faster until it barely resembled a heart in shape anymore. Shining Armor strolled into the room to see one of the crystal hearts spinning out of control, and his wife, looking ready to do the same. The spinning started to slow, and then stopped entirely, falling back into its place in the display, with one significant change. Yona’s image was still reflected in the heart’s facets, though instead of a neutral smile, Yona appeared flustered and aroused, panting and sweating, with two mares kissing her cheeks as they rubbed her pussy. The moment of her climactic elimination forever immortalized in crystal. “EEEEEEEE!” Cadence shoved Shining closer to the glass, beyond ecstatic of the results. “It worked, it worked!” “Yes, I can see that,” Shining smirked. “Didn’t think Yona would be the first to go.” “Oooh, look, Shining!” Cadence’s hoof tapped on the glass. “Cozy and Babs worked together to sabotage her!” “Ordinarily, that kind of thing shouldn’t be said with such an excited tone, dear.” “Good girl, Yona,” Babs and Cozy whispered in Yona’s ears, giving her one last kiss before leaving her to bask in the afterglow. Cozy Glow and Babs walked out of the classroom, satisfied with their work. “It’s just dat easy,” Babs smirked, holding out her hoof. “Let’s see who we can crack next!” Cozy said, happily pounding the outstretched hoof with her own. A beat of silence as the two continued to walk, reflecting on their successful sabotage. “...You know you didn’t have to kiss me, right?” Cozy chuckled, playfully nudging the earth pony. “S-Should I not have?” > Day 10: All in the Family > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- “Ah, this is more like it! Just like old times!” Twilight Velvet beamed, looking at the dinner table and seeing her kids and husband all at the table together. “Mom, please, we’re not that old yet…” Shining rolled his eyes. “Oh pshh!” Twilight Velvet scoffed, pointing at her children. “Last time I checked, you were working up the ranks of the royal guard, and you were being sent to Ponyville! And now look at you! Prince and Princess!” “Come on, mom, we’ve visited you plenty of times between now and then!” Twilight said, her voice barely holding back a chuckle. Despite her joking, Velvet started to tear up. “Oh, where does the time go?” “Hey, what about me?” Spike waved, a playful, knowing smile on his face. “Oh, how could I forget about you, Spike?” Velvet walked over, giving him a hug. “You’ve grown more than both of them combined!” “Dear, how about we give them a chance to eat before you get all sentimental?” Night Light suggested. “Fine, fine…” Velvet brought over the plates of food she prepared, mashed potatoes, alfalfa sprouts, peas, and carrots. Hungry looks spread across the family as they eagerly went to scoop their food onto their own plate. “Breathe, Shining!” Velvet playfully chastised as his son was wolfing down food. “It’s not going anywhere.” “Nnngh. It’s so good though…” Velvet looked over at Twilight’s plate. “Twilight, dear, get some alfalfa.” With the indignant groan of a child, Twilight grabbed the smallest amount of alfalfa she thought she could get away with, much to the amusement of Spike. Even as the dragon tried to sneakily pass his own alfalfa onto Twilight’s plate. “Spiiiike…” With a short huff of smoke through his nostrils, Spike grabbed his share of food and begrudgingly shoved it in his mouth. “Really is like old times, huh, dear?” Night Light smirked. After enough eating, the family began chatting as the dinner started to settle in their stomachs. “So, how’s Cadence, Shining? Why isn’t she joining us tonight?” Night Light asked. “I asked if she wanted to come,” Shining shrugged. “But she wanted to make sure the preparations for the orgy were ready.” “Wow, she’s real excited about hosting this thing, huh?” “Like you wouldn’t believe, Twily.” “Ooh, I hope she makes it!” Velvet grinned, clapping her hooves together. “It’d be a shame if she didn’t get to participate in something put so much effort into planning!” “Wouldn’t be the first time,” Spike snarked, which was immediately met with a punch on the shoulder from Twilight. Shining decided to pile on. “So, when do we expect you to go out, Twily?” Twilight immediately took offense, pounding her hooves on the table to push herself up. “Hey, I’ve been doing great in the past few ones we’ve had. I’ve grown to be a pony of great self-restraint!” “Wow, what letters from Celestia have you been reading recently?” Shining smirked. Velvet and Night Light exchanged glances as they watched their children bicker. “You know, dear, if it’s good enough for Cadence and Shining, you could always try this with me next year…” Velvet cooed. “I’m sure the orgy is a lot of fuuuun!” “Oh, that’s too intense for me!” Night Light nervously chuckled. “It sounds fun, but I don’t know if I could last a week…” Velvet playfully nudged her husband. “Aww, you’d love it! Don’t just send me off on my lonesome…You sure you wouldn’t want a chance with, say…a dragon?” Night Light softly smiled. “Well, maybe you can convince me by telling me what it’s like later, hon.” “Heehee, deal,” Velvet sealed her promise with a kiss on Night Light’s cheek. “So how’s the new chastity spell, Shining?” Twilight asked, leaning her elbow against the table to rest her head against her hoof “You had a while to make improvements, you finally make the perfect one?” Shining immediately puffed out his chest and smirked. “Well, there’s always room for improvement, but with Cadence’s help, we’ve made the best iteration of the Chastity Shield yet!” he said with a clear preparedness in his bragging. Despite the prideful boasting, Twilight and Spike weren’t convinced, “So what’s the catch?” Twilight asked. “Well, since Cadence needed the help, we came up with the idea that we would link our shields together. That way, we’d have to use the unlocking spell together in order to disable the spell. Low maintenance, doesn’t take a heavy amount of magic to cast, a two-pony lock, it’s foolproof!” “No, what’s the catch?” Spike raised an eyebrow, knowing Shining was purposefully leaving some key details out. “I don’t know, sometimes I get these weird tingles at random times.” Shining slumped in his chair  idly ran a hoof up and down his cock. “There’s no pattern to when they happen, and they stop just as fast as they start. It’s not too distracting, I guess, but I have no idea what causes them.” “Shining, please!” Velvet chastised. “At least go to your room and put on your rock music and pretend we don’t know what you’re doing in there!” Shining’s jaw dropped in horror and shattered innocence as Twilight and Spike doubled over in laughter. “I..wh…you…why…this whole TIME?!” “To be fair, we never heard you actually doing it,” Night Light shrugged, “...But it was kinda obvious.” As Shining slammed his head against the dining table in a fit of despair, Night Light continued. “Still more subtle than when Spike and Twilight would do it, at least.” Both Twilight and Spike started complaining instantly, trying to defend their ways of keeping their private pleasures private. “Hey, only a few of those long hot bubble baths and showers were for that! And I made sure to spray the bathtub down every time it happened!” “I surrounded myself with pillows to soundproof all the moaning I may have made, there’s no way that’s not more subtle than Shining’s music!” Twilight Velvet giggled, “Dear, please, you’re embarrassing them more than I planned to!” “It’s true, though,” Night Light chuckled, taking a sip of his drink. In a world of bright, pastel-colored ponies, Tempest’s dark orchid coat and dark gray cloak made it easy for Feather Bangs to find her. She seemed to be lost in thought, staring up from Ponyville’s town square up towards the mountains where Canterlot was situated. Feather Bangs approached from behind, putting his hoof onto Tempest’s shoulder. “Hey there-” Almost immediately, Tempest grabbed onto Feather Bangs’s hoof, letting out a battle cry as she easily tossed him over her shoulder and slammed him onto his back. Feather Bangs’s view of the mare quickly spun upside down until he was staring at the clouds in the sky. The moment Feather Bangs hit the ground, Tempest’s eyes went wide. “Oh shit! Sorry! That was a reflex, I swear!” Feather Bangs opened his mouth and weakly wheezed out whatever was left in his lungs, his hooves twitching in shock. Cringing with guilt, Tempest looked over the dazed stallion. “Heyyy…so…you’re not dead, right?” “...Ow.” Feather Bangs’s eyes twitched, barely even registering that Tempest was in his view. “Okay! Not dead! That’s good,” Tempest sighed in relief, holding out a hoof to help Feather Bangs up. Feather Bangs remained unresponsive, until his head started to shake into consciousness. “Wh…huh?” Still disoriented, he eventually grabbed onto Tempest’s hoof to stand upright. Tempest sheepishly rubbed the back of her head. “Sorry, old habits. You just…really shouldn’t have snuck up on me. You’re not too badly hurt, are you?” Feather Bangs winced as he felt the pain pulsing in his back every time he moved. “It’s fine! I’ll…be fine! You uh…really knocked me off my hooves…!” he weakly chuckled. Tempest stared at the stallion, bemused. Was he doing pick-up lines? “I mean, can’t deny it was a really strong first impression, right?” Feather said, grinning through the pain. “Wow, you, uh…sure bounced back quickly for somepony who just got laid out on their flank.” “Well, heh, meeting lovely-looking mares like you helps dull the pain.” Feather Bangs clenched his teeth mid-mane flip, opting to just point and smile instead. Tempest looked at Feather Bangs with a mix of confusion and fluster. “...Alright, you clearly hit your head too hard, or maybe some dirt got into your eyes or something.” “I assure you, my head and my eyes are working just fine!” Feather Bangs tilted his head for a wink, hearing and feeling a few cracks. “...Back and neck might be another issue but that’s not important!” “Tch, ‘lovely’ is better said for somepony like Princess Cadence, not me,” Tempest scoffed, turning her head away. “I think the word suits you pretty well!” Feather Bangs smirked. “I really like the rugged and tough vibe you got going on! Also think it’s great when a mare’s got some power, and I think it’s been proven that you do…!” he said, straining through the pain. Tempest let out an almost silent chuckle. “Well, not often I get complimented by somepony I just flipped over…” She didn’t totally believe Feather Bangs’s words, but they did feel…nice…to hear. “Yeah, so I came over to-Ghhhk!” Feather Bangs collapsed back down to the ground, breathing heavily. “Okay, I gotta get you some help…” Tempest slid herself underneath Feather Bangs and lifted him up, carrying the stallion. “You can tell me whatever you wanted to on the way to the hospital.” “Yeah…alright.” he weakly nodded, lying on Tempest’s back. “Guess this is one way to spend time with you…” Tempest felt Feather wrap his hooves around her neck as she walked. She knew it was just so he could hold on, but his embrace felt comforting in a way.  Though feeling what felt like his cheeks against the back of her neck was starting to push it. “Alright, if I feel anything else pressing against me, I’m tossing you off and leaving you there, got it?” “Y-Yes, ma’am…” > Day 11: Plunder Pressure > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- “This is so cool!” Smolder said with awe, leaning over the port-side of the flying ship. “Yeah, I thought this would just be the same thing as flying, but it’s actually pretty nice!” Ember nodded. “I like being able to move fast without needing to flap your wings.” Celaeno, still at the helm, rolled her eyes with a smile on her face. The comment Tempest made about her using her ship for tourists started to feel true. Rainbow Dash watched the two dragons marvel at the speed of the ship. “Hey, thanks for doing me a solid,” she said, patting the parrot on the back. “Well, it better be worth it,” Celaeno muttered, tapping her claw against the wheel. “Trust me, I think it will be.” Rainbow Dash flew over to the dragons. “What’d I tell ya? A ride on a real pirate ship is pretty awesome, huh?” “Hell yeah!” Smolder cheered. “The view up here is great!” “Yeah, plus Captain Celaeno seems pretty cool and tough. Thanks for inviting us…” Ember paused for a moment, her face clearly indicating she’s searching for a name. “...Rainbow Dash!” Smolder leaned over the side of the ship. “Being a pirate would be so cool!” she gushed, eyes sparkling with fantastical imagination. “Sailing all over, getting into sword fights…” “Aaaand, don’t forget…” Rainbow Dash zipped away, coming back with a chest, tossing it onto the deck and bucking it to open it up. “...the treasure!” The dragons’ eyes immediately went wide, enticed by the pristine gold coins, but most importantly, the massive gemstones and diamonds buried among the gold. Celaeno grimaced, gripping onto the helm as tight as her clenched teeth. She trusted Rainbow Dash, but she wasn’t exactly happy with the way the dragons were salivating… Ember subconsciously let out a little shudder of greedy pleasure. It wasn’t just how big the gems were. There were the usual rubies and emeralds, but also the multicolored ammolites and jaspers. Much rarer gemstones, and much tastier, too. With this new information, she looked at Celaeno differently. She was already impressed with the ship and her attitude, but to have this collection of gemstones… Meanwhile, Celaeno definitely noticed the gaze that Ember was giving her and wasn’t sure if the hungry eyes being pointed in her direction was a good thing or not. Ember clenched her fists, restraining herself enough to shut the treasure chest and wipe the drool from her lips. “And you do this every day?” Smolder asked. “Pretty much, yeah.” “Awesooooome!” Smolder grinned, already planning a new career path. As Rainbow Dash brought the treasure chest back below deck, Ember sidled up to Celaeno. “So…how do you find all those treasures?” “Same way me and my crew have been doing it for years,” Celaeno shrugged. “Some old soul hundreds of years ago wanted to keep his treasure safe and hid it away, and we searched to unearth it and keep it for ourselves.” “So there’s just all those delicious-er, valuable treasures just buried all over?” “If you know where to look,” the parrot winked. The white clouds started to darken as the ship journeyed on. “So, Dash, you really convinced Captain Celaeno to be a pirate again?” Smolder asked. Rainbow Dash smirked, already reliving the memory in her head. “Yeah, Equestria would’ve been doomed if I didn’t inspire those parrots with my singing!” “It…was a pretty rousing song…” Celaeno quietly chuckled. “Oh please no…” Ember preemptively covered up her ears. Thankfully, Ember was spared a round of sky shanties as the ship made it to the Dragonlands. Celaeno looked down over the pools of lava and pillars of smoke. “Alright, you two can just fly back home from here, can’t ya?” “Actually, do you think you could come with us for a bit?” Ember asked. “There’s something we want to show you.” Smolder’s head immediately turned. “We do?” Celaeno peered over the side again, weighing the pros and cons and assessing the risks for a full two seconds. “Yeah, sure.” Celaeno docked the ship by some nearby rocks before disembarking. “Alright, lead the way, Ember!” As the dragons walked off, Rainbow Dash tapped Celaeno on the shoulder. “You sure your ship’s gonna be alright here?” she asked, watching the lava bubbling up and the very wooden planks the ship was made out of. Celaeno gave the hull of the ship a hearty slap. “Ahhh, she’ll be fine! It’ll take more than a little lava to take this baby down!” It was a short, but heated trek through the Dragonlands, snaking around rivers of lava and piles of rocks, until Ember and Smolder arrived at a series of caves on the side of a mountain. Smolder quickly figured out what Ember’s intentions were. “Ember? Is this…really a good idea?” “It’ll be fine!” Ember nonchalantly waved off Smolder’s concerns. “It’s only fair, after all.” Celaeno cocked her head to the side. “What’s only fair?” Ember motioned Celaeno into one of the caves. “Well, you were nice enough to show us your treasure…” Celaeno entered the cave, and as the inside lit up, so did her eyes. “...I figure you’d wanna take a look at mine.” Ember’s personal dragon hoard was a pile of gemstones, far more than the parrot could fit in all her treasure chests. All those precious gems, just sitting there…and presumably much more in the caves nearby. “Hhhhk…” Celaeno was speechless, drooling from her beak as she stared, almost unblinking, at the colorful array of gems in front of her. “So?” Dash smugly elbowed the parrot’s side. “Was it worth it or what?” Celaeno remained unresponsive, but Rainbow noticed she had an increased rate of breathing, a heavy blush, and a gradual rubbing of her inner thighs. “...Ooookay, I think I’ll just let you get this out of your system before I ask for a ride home…” Ordinarily, Feather Bangs would be going off galavanting somewhere in Equestria, trying out some more pick up lines and trying to connect with the rest of the NCN ladies, but today, he was planning on taking things easy. He still had plenty of time to meet the rest of the contestants, and a day off made sure that he’d have a mental break to keep his mind fresh and get him back to the top of his game. …And also getting laid out by Tempest yesterday made his entire body sore.  There were no major injuries after being flipped over, but putting too much pressure on a tender spot by stepping wrong made him wince. So today was just a rest day. A very lonely rest day spent idly walking around the streets of Ponyville, no one to talk to… At least the day was still beautiful. Almost as beautiful as the gals that he’d met so far. Though it still didn’t make his problem of picking a lover any easier. Getting the likes of Captain Celaeno, Dragon Lord Ember, and even Princess Twilight to swoon over him was nice, but even choosing between those three felt like an impossible choice.  Though he still hadn’t made it through everyone yet. Maybe tomorrow, he could try his luck with- “Heeeey, I recognize you!” Feather Bangs whipped his head around to see a hippogriff rapidly approaching him. Though caught completely off-guard, he tried to turn on the charm. “Um, hey, I-” “Yeah yeah!” Silverstream pointed and grinned. “You’re the stallion that’s hitting on all the girls for No Clop November!” Feather Bangs rapidly blinked. “Wait, how did you know-” “Oooh, how about you hit on me next? No one’s flirted with me yet!” “I…Well, okay, but-” “I’m Silverstream, but you probably knew that already! But did you know that I can turn into a seapony? So you won’t have any problem getting me wet!” “Oh that’s cool? I-” “So, I know you’re new to the whole No Clop thing, and I gotta tell you it is like TOTALLY worth going through to the end! There’s so much sex and it’s soooooo good!” “Silverstream-” “And I bet that you’d be amazing at the orgy because you just have tons of girls all over you!” “That’s not exactly-” “Oh! We should totally bang at the orgy! It’ll be super fun! Whaddya think?” “That sounds great, but-” “Awesome! Then it’s a date!” Silverstream picked up Feather Bangs’s tender hoof and started shaking it before skipping away. Feather Bangs stood in place, still stunned as Silverstream walked away. He was…fairly certain that a conversation just took place. A very rapid, one-sided conversation. But it looked like the hippogriff was walking away happy, at least. “Huh…I’m better at this than I thought.” > Day 12: Hope Springs Maternal > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Canterlot Castle was alight with laughter that echoed throughout the hallways. Princess Celestia managed to get a break from her royal duties, and decided to bring over two special guests for tea. It was a far better way to relieve stress than the alternative, anyway. “Waitwaitwait, Twilight really did that while in her tower?” Velvet giggled. Celestia nodded. “She thought that being high up would prevent herself from being seen. Unfortunately, she didn’t account for the Wonderbolt trainees that were trying to practice that day.” “Oooh, I think Dashie might have heard of that!” Windy grinned. “I wonder if she’s friends with the ones that saw Twilight…” Velvet let out a little snort. “Wouldn’t that be a fun conversation with your daughter? ‘Hi sweetheart, next time you go to the Wonderbolts, ask them if they saw Twilight Sparkle in a window in a Canterlot tower about who knows how many moons ago!’” “I’m sure Windy has asked Rainbow Dash for far worse…” Celestia chuckled. Windy blushed, nervously tapping her hooves together. Velvet giggled before taking a sip of tea. “Mmm, this tea is absolutely divine, Celestia!” Celestia gracefully bowed her head. “Why thank you, Velvet, it’s one of my favorite blends!” “And this cake!” Velvet lifted up a slice, stuffing it into her face, talking as she chewed. “Mmmh! It’s so chocolatey and moist! Oooh, this is fantastic, Windy!” “Ohoho stop, you’re gonna make me blush! This was nothing special!” Windy squealed, trying to deflect the compliments. Celestia warmly smiled and shook her head. “Don’t be so modest, Windy. You’ve truly honed your baking skills!”  Windy certainly wasn’t going to turn down a compliment from Celestia herself. Especially since she’s been there to compare her growth. “You truly mean that?” “I do,” Celestia winked. “It’s become quite a guilty pleasure for me to enjoy your confectionery masterpieces! If I’m not careful, it might go straight to my flanks!” Velvet turned her head to the side and started snickering, obviously trying to hide her amusement, but failing miserably considering Celestia was two feet away from her. Celestia simply smirked, cocking her head with a shrug. “Well, I have plenty of embarrassing stories about Twilight Sparkle, but I also have a few involving you too, Velvet.” The snide giggling immediately stopped from Velvet’s side as her eyes widened in fear. “Y-You do?” Windy leaned forward. “Is that so, Princess?” “Oh yes, they’re quite juicy tales, Windy. Would you like to hear of the time Velvet was visiting Shining Armor when he was still a guard in training?” Velvet’s face instantly went red, knowing the exact story she was talking about. “Would I ever!” “Well, it had been about…two months since Shining Armor had started his training,” Celestia reminisced. “Velvet was quite excited to stop by and see how her son was doing…” Velvet’s hooves nervously tapped against the table. “Y-Y’know, we don’t really have to go into details about this…!” Celestia continued through Velvet’s nervous protests. “Although I gave her directions to the where the training room was, the poor mare got a bit lost and ended up going into the locker room instead…” Velvet pressed her face against the table as Windy gasped loudly. “No! She didn’t!” “She did. Poor Velvet waltzed right into the locker room, in front of all those sweaty and exhausted stallions…Oh, I don’t know who was more embarrassed that day, the guards or Velvet!” As Windy started cackling at Velvet’s old misfortune, the unicorn crossed her hooves and huffed. “I was only in there for a moment…” “But you saw enough to last a lifetime, didn’t you?” Windy said before wheezing with laughter. “Oooh, you just wait until December, Windy!” Velvet grumbled, though she still had a smile on her face. “You better watch your flank!” “Assuming you make it to the end…” “That’s rich, coming from somepony who also hasn’t made it yet!” “Ladies, please,” Celestia calmly intervened. “This is meant to be a fun event for everyone. No need for hostilities here, playful or otherwise.” Windy and Velvet lowered her heads. “R-Right, sorry, Princess…” they both apologized. Celestia smirked. “Though if we’re on the subject, what are your thoughts on the chances of your children making it through the month?” “Well, of COURSE I’m going to say that my Dashie’s going to go all the way again!” Windy proudly declared. “She’s going to go on a streak!” Velvet needed a moment to gather her thoughts. “Well, Shining’s chastity shield, odd as it is, has been effective, so I think he’ll be good. Spike has had a solid amount of restraint, but that could change easily, especially since he’s been hanging out with those other dragons and Cadence and such. As for Twilight…hmm…” “Twilight’s a bit of a wild card, isn’t she?” Celestia chuckled. “Well, she hasn’t had a great record, but she’s done so much better recently. She’s just as voyeuristic as she is horny…it’s like a coin flip, really.” “What about you, Princess?” Windy pointed at Celestia. “What kind of bets are you making?” The princess gave the two mares a cheeky smile as she turned her head up. “Well, I’ve just been swamped with work recently, and Luna’s more of the type to gather information by delving into wet dreams…” “Buuuuut?” Both moms said. “With Yona out, I might be the only reason Sandbar is still in, which I think is quite adorable.” As the two moms laughed and sipped their tea, Celestia looked over to Twilight Velvet, noticing some of the chocolate cake smeared on her face. “Oh, Velvet, you’ve got a little bit of…” She gestured to her cheek. Velvet touched her hoof to her own, blushing in shock. “Ah, let me get that for you.” Before Velvet could do anything, Celestia leaned forward, quickly licking the cake off her cheek. Pomf! “Mmm! So delicious!” Celestia smacked her lips. “It’d be quite a shame to let that cake go to waste, wouldn’t you agree, Windy?” A quiet squeak left Windy’s lips as she nodded, genuinely considering smashing her face into the rest of the cake on the table. Cozy Glow rested next to one of Ponyville’s fountains, shuffling through her notes as she muttered to herself. “Well, can’t do that anymore, that one’s complicated and I’d probably have to ask for Babs’s help, that one might work but I’d need to convince Pinkie Pie to let me use Sugarcube Corner’s kitchen, that one will probably get me killed by Chrysalis, but it’d be sooooo worth it!” The gears in Cozy’s head grinded to a halt when her plotting was interrupted by a “Hey there-” “GYAAAAAH!” Cozy screamed and hurriedly gathered up all her papers, turning to hide them behind her back. “Woah there! Sorry! Didn’t mean to scare you,” Feather Bangs said, his eyes almost as wide as Cozy’s. “Just saw you sitting all by your lonesome and thought maybe you could use some company.” It didn’t take long for Cozy to recognize the stallion. Babs had informed her about her own encounter with Feather Bangs, but a bit of eavesdropping taught her about his attempts to woo the other ladies. No doubt he was going to try the same thing on her. Cozy immediately put on her sweetest voice and grin. “Oh, that’s real sweet of you, Feather Bangs! I was feeling a bit lonely, actually!” Feather Bangs did his signature mane-flip as he smiled. “Well, you’re lucky I found you then. What were you doing, hanging by this fountain anyway?” “Oh…uh…I was just…so troubled, thinking of who I wanted to be with for the orgy later! There’s just soooo many choices!” “Aw, I know, right?” Feather Bangs sat down next to her. “It’s almost painful to have all these choices.” Cozy tried to hide her notes as best she could, still playing along. “Yeah, but I’m sure a charming stallion like yourself just has mares throwing themselves at your hooves everyday!” “Hah, I wish,” Feather Bangs chuckled. “But given the ones I’ve met so far, I’m pretty sure most of them are into me.” Cozy forced her biggest grin as she pushed down the urge to throw up. “I…believe it!” Feather Bangs scooted a little bit closer to Cozy. “But if you were still looking for a partner for the orgy later, I can be available.” “Aw, that’s so sweet of you!” As saccharine as Cozy’s voice was, this was the hardest test of her facade yet. Feather Bangs ran a hoof through his own mane before pointing at Cozy and winking. “I can never turn down a mare in need! Especially one as cute as you, heh.” Cozy bit her tongue behind her smile as she repressed a scream, until she was hit with an idea. “Actually, there is something you could do for me, something that’d be perfect for a charming stallion like you!” His ego being so easily stroked, Feather Bangs raised a curious eyebrow. “Of course. Name it, and I’ll see it done!” Cozy’s eyes started to shimmer as she went over the details. “Well, you see, I’ve been having trouble trying to figure out who to be with for the orgy, but my friend probably needs way more help than me! Do you think you could go and sweep her off your hooves?” Now that sounded like the perfect assignment for Feather Bangs. “Aw, you’re so sweet, thinking of others, Cozy! I’d be more than happy to do my thing for your friend!” “That’s great! She’s gonna be so happy!” Cozy said, with a mischievous cackle slipping through her fake giggling. “I’ll tell her to meet you at the Everfree Forest tomorrow at noon, okay?” “Heh, sounds like a date!” “You’re the best, Feather Bangs!” Cozy gave him a hug, her real wicked expression finally showing for a brief second. “I’m really glad we got the chance to meet up.” “Me too, it’s always a pleasure to spend time with a beautiful mare.” Cozy Glow watched as Feather Bangs skipped away, smiling and shaking her head with a soft chuckle. “Oh, he’s gonna die.” Meanwhile, Twilight Sparkle found herself in a place she usually found herself in the middle of November: In her castle, in the map room, all alone, with the doors locked. Her breathing was tense and heavy, her hooves trembled, her wings twitched at the slightest thought of seeing the back or bottom half of one of her friends. She couldn’t even blame being in heat for her struggles, she was just horny. And like it or not, she started falling to her urges. She sat at her throne, hoof anxiously tapping against the surface of the table. Her library of footage was small, but what she managed to record was worth watching over and over again. It felt so wrong in her heart to watch her friends like this, but in her loins, it felt so good. Maybe if she just watched the footage of her, Sunset, and Starlight this time. The magic from the other two unicorns pulsing through her body was unforgettable. If only she could’ve recorded that roleplay with Mina. That was a creative little experience with the dragon, even if it was a bit silly. Though she knew Zecora had potions to relive past experiences. Twilight shook her head and quietly chided herself. Even if she did bother going out, Zecora would just playfully tease her for her lack of restraint. …Though she still had that footage of Spike dropping out just for her… It wasn’t particularly long, or intense, but it was sweet and loving. Plus, he did make it for her specifically. She could just edge for as long as it lasted and then just go on with her day like normal! Before her common sense could tell her no, Twilight had already started up the footage. “Hey, Twi. Had to wait ‘til you weren’t lookin’, so thanks for the distraction, Princess…” Spike’s recorded voice addressed. As Spike started feeling up his shaft, Twilight leaned back on her throne, spreading her legs, slowly stroking herself with her hoof. Twilight mouthed along throughout Spike’s monologue. Her hoof moved in sync with his hand. Quiet gasps and moans escaped the princess’s lips as she watched Spike slowly pumped his shaft. But then, just as he was getting to the part about getting Twilight to the end, the recording of Spike stopped. Not like the recording was broken, but Spike simply stopped jerking off. Twilight paused as well, ready to check and see if Spike snuck in something else as some sort of prank. The recording of Spike smirked and cocked his head, and a very familiar, yet un-Spike-like voice came out of his lips. “You know, most ponies would just look at regular porn like any decent degenerate.” Twilight’s hoof immediately clutched her chest as she screamed in terror, though she immediately knew the culprit. “Discord?! What the FUCK!?” The draconequus made himself appear, snapping his body into the room. “Hey, don’t get mad at me, I’m just trying to stop you from doing the wrong thing!” As twisted as Discord’s plan was, it almost worked. Twilight was significantly less horny after that scare, though replacing horny with angry and terrified wasn’t Twilight’s ideal solution. Discord laid himself out on the table, right in front of the paused Spike video, browsing through the files. “I mean honestly, what is it about princesses and voyeurism, anyway? Princess Luna looks through wet dreams, Princess Cadence is a shipping fiend, and look at you, living bicuriously through everyone else via these recordings!” “Hey, c’mon, I’m just trying to have fun!” Twilight protested, trying to take control of the map back. “You’ve probably watched this one…how many times now?” Discord asked, pointing to the holographic Spike. “It’s so corny! How do you listen to it, much less get turned on by it?” Twilight’s wings flared up. “He’s speaking from the heart! Spike was sacrificing his perfect win streak just to motivate me to finally get a win!” Discord immediately rolled his eyes. “Sheesh, what fanfictions have you been reading recently?” “Discord!” “Fine, fine. As your friend, I just wanted to help you out. Help you be less horny and all that. I just thought it’d be a shame for you to drop out due to your own old home movies.” Twilight raised an eyebrow. “Really? You want to help me out?” “I do! But if you want to stick it out with your own grit, far be it from me to stop you,” Discord said, ready to snap himself out of the room. “Wait!” Being who he was, Twilight was certain Discord was up to something, but being so worked up, she didn’t have the time or patience to figure out what it was. “Fine…help me be less horny.” With a smile, Discord turned around, flourishing his hands. “Very well, this shouldn’t take too long.” He reached his paw forward, pinching onto the tip of Twilight’s horn, and with a simple flick of the wrist, he painlessly detached the princess’s horn from her head. “Viola! You are now less horny!” Twilight’s expression fell flat. “Ha ha, real cute, Discord,” she dryly laughed. “Are you going to actually help me?” “Oh, but I am!” Discord insisted. “Now you can’t conjure up any dildos or vibrators to make you lose! You’re welcome, by the way.” Twilight had hoped that Discord’s joke would’ve actually helped her, but no, the fiery lust in her loins was still there. “Come on! This isn’t helping anything!” Discord waggled his finger. “I respectfully disagree, Twilight. Besides, do you really need it?” “Discord! I need it! Quit the teasing and just give it to me already!” “Quite the interesting word choice, but what kind of friend would I be to say no?” With a wave of his claw, Twilight flipped over onto the table, lying on her back, with Discord holding her horn right in front of her. “Discord, I’m not in the mood for-aaaaah!” Twilight’s grumpiness was cut-off by Discord inserting the tip of her own horn into her pussy. “Oh, I’d say you’re quite in the mood for this, Twilight,” Discord chuckled, slowly inserting more of her own horn inside her. Twilight’s face twisted to show a mix of confusion and pleasure. She could still feel tactile sensations on her horn as it pushed against her inner walls. It was like a perverted masturbation, the way her own horn felt thrusting in and out of her. While Twilight was preoccupied with herself, Discord discreetly started toying around with the table. “Nnnf! Fuuuck! Discord! Ooooh!” Twilight spread out both her wings and her legs, twitching on the table as she started to give into the pleasure. His devious ploy was hitting two erogenous zones at the same time, sending her into a haze of horny delight. Discord gradually worked more and more of Twilight’s horn inside her pussy, slowly twisting it around so that the spiraled curves rubbed against her inner walls. Even with the knowledge that Discord was essentially using her detached horn as a dildo, Twilight still bobbed her head as if her horn was still on her head, desperately trying to squeeze out as much pleasure as possible, despite her fate being in the hands of Discord. Discord continued with a smug grin on his face, deliberately keeping the poor princess on edge, watching her helplessly crane her neck in an attempt to climax faster was far too much fun. Twilight pounded her hoof against the table, sweating bullets as she thrusted her hips. Knowing who she was dealing with, she decided to just be blunt. “Discord…just…just do it already! M-Make me cum!” “Of course, Princess. Luckily for you, I’m a good enough friend to know all the right buttons to press to turn you on.” Discord pressed his thumb against the bottom of Twilight’s horn, and it whirred to life, buzzing against Twilight’s pussy lips like a vibrator. “YES! YES! OHHHH FUCK ME!” Twilight arched her back high, wings flapping and sending feathers flying as she screamed with pleasure. There was no time to be upset that she lost, or confused on why her horn was suddenly vibrating; just chaotic, erotic relief. Just for nostalgia’s sake, Discord conjured up a list detailing Twilight’s downfall, right over the table. “Player: Princess Twilight Sparkle Location: Ponyville Method: Too horn-y Date: November 12th Just like old times, eh?” Cadence sensed a change in the crystal hearts, and immediately rushed over. The grin on her face got wider when she saw Twilight’s heart being the one that was changing. Just like Yona’s, the crystal heart with Twilight’s embedded into it started to spin faster and faster, the image now a perfect head-on angle of Twilight screaming in ecstasy as Discord’s paw shoved her own horn inside her. “Oh, I am SO bringing this up at Hearth’s Warming!” As the princess lay on the table in defeat, Discord put Twilight’s sticky horn back on her forehead where it belonged, gently caressing her cheek. “There, feel free to replay that moment for future years to come, Twilight.” > Day 13: Rad Influence > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Discord and Fluttershy lay on their stomachs on the floor of the latter’s cottage, kicking their legs in the air and giggling as they looked over a sprawl of pictures of questionable content. “Oooh, I liked this position!” Fluttershy said, pointing at a picture depicting a pony with her hooves stretched in a way that did not seem physically possible. “What if we combined it with this, then?” Discord suggested, holding out a picture of some sort of vaguely phallic object, yet only they knew its purpose and proper usage. “Yes! And if we get someone you like, we could maybe try…” Fluttershy dragged a picture depicting what was clearly five ponies closer to her. Discord immediately scoffed. “What do we need them for? I can do the work for two.” He snapped his fingers, creating a duplicate of himself that gave Fluttershy another questionable eyebrow raise. “Or three.” Another finger snap, another clone. Fluttershy simply smiled, booping the original Discord on the nose. “Because I think it’s important to share the love. Besides, if I was the only one getting all the chaotic sex, what’s the point in participating in No Clop at all?” “...Well, when you put it like that, why not just drop out now?” Discord suggested, snapping his clones away. “If we start right now, we could get through most of these ideas before Hearth’s Warming…” Fluttershy was surprised that Discord would brazenly suggest surrendering like that. “You just want to give up?” Discord waggled his finger before crossing his arms. “Ah, ah, ah! Not ‘give up’, it’s a ‘personal choice’, as Spike would cope by saying. Besides, I’ve already proven myself last year. I’ve more than had my taste of victory.” Fluttershy smirked. “I mean, alright, if you’re okay with me telling everyone that you were soooo desperate and horny that you just had to have me right at this moment.” Discord whipped his neck around, glaring suspiciously at Fluttershy. “S-So? What do I care?” “Oh, what would they say, knowing that you needed me that badly? What would Rainbow Dash think? What would Princess Celestia think? What would the other Cutie Mark Crusaders think? What would Spike and Big Mac think?” “Alright, you made your point!” Discord grumbled. “I’ll stick it out with you, Fluttershy. For you.” Fluttershy leaned her head into Discord’s noodly chest. “I’m glad you are.” “But I get to pick the first position! Doesn’t matter how many friends you want to bring along.” Speaking of Fluttershy’s friends, the door to her cottage opened up, and standing at the doorway was Tree Hugger, holding a very…distinctive smelling saddlebag on her back. “Heyyy Flutters! I got the stuff ready for December if you wanted to sample it first.” Discord immediately shot Fluttershy a look. Fluttershy fired back. “Discord, come on…” “Oh, this look isn’t because I’m jealous.” Tree Hugger entered the cottage, putting her bag on top of all the weird kinky photos Discord had, and opening it up to let some of the goods spill out. Cookies, brownies, even muffins and bagels, all with a very, very distinct smell that was not present in ordinary baked goods. Fluttershy was left flabbergasted at the sheer volume of what Tree Hugger brought. “Treezie, you’re not planning on bringing ALL of this to the orgy, are you?” “Depends on how many make it,” Tree Hugger winked. Fluttershy picked up one of the brownies. “Are these gonna be alright for the others? I mean, they’re not as experienced with this stuff, you know?” “Chiiiill, Fluttershy!” Tree Hugger wrapped her hoof around the pegasus. “Some of this is just the light stuff. The good shit is for us. And that Harshwhinny chick. She definitely needs it.” Tree Hugger finally looked and acknowledged the scowling Discord was in the room. “Hey Dissy, you wanna sample?” “No thanks. If I wanted to see new colors, I’d stare at my backyard for an hour.” “Your loss dude, these are real good,” Tree Hugger shrugged, munching on one of the brownies. Discord looked back to Fluttershy, his eyebrow literally raising up to the ceiling. “It’s not about jealousy, huh?” “Look, I’m just saying that I’ve given you impossible to describe sensations and made you giggle at the slightest things and not ONCE did they include any side-effects like making your eyes red or incessant food cravings!” Fluttershy silently blinked at Discord. “...Okay, the kibble eating was only one time, but in my defense, you’re the one that asked for ‘Discord doggy-style’!” “Discord, this is Tree Hugger’s first time doing No Clop November, can’t all three of us have a little fun?” Discord reluctantly sighed. “Fine, fine. But only because I, as a veteran champion, get to show the newbie how it’s done.” Tree Hugger, now on a slight buzz, tearfully closed up her saddlebag to make sure she didn’t go through the whole supply at once, putting it next to Fluttershy’s side table for safe-keeping.  She took notice of all the photos scattered on the floor, picking up one of them after seeing a pony in a peculiar pose. “Oh hey, I’ve been in this position before!” Discord immediately slithered over to Tree Hugger’s side. “...You can’t be serious. That’s not possible.” He squinted at the picture Tree Hugger grabbed. The pony being pictured had her hind hooves lifted up behind her head. Tree Hugger shook her head. “Naw, it’s pretty easy after you stretch first.” The earth pony balanced herself on her front two hooves, kicking out the other two to stretch before switching which legs she was standing on. “Look, I know you just had like, one brownie, but if you honestly think you can replicate these poses all by yourself then you really ARE-” As Discord was going off, Tree Hugger laid down on the floor, splaying out her hooves for one last stretch before pulling her hind hooves behind her head, using her front hooves to maintain her position. It wasn’t an exact replication, but it was enough to make Discord pause. “...Say, Treezie,” Discord said, picking up another photo. “What’s your opinion on this doohickey here?” Tempest Shadow was feeling overwhelmed. Not by any sexual urges, but by the amount of bright colors that surrounded her in Hope Hollow. “And I thought Ponyville was too bright and shiny…” she muttered to herself. Kerfuffle, oblivious to Tempest’s grumpiness, skipped along to her shop, leading the way for the unicorn. “I’m like, soooo glad to see you finally made time to come over here!” Kerfuffle squealed, dancing in place. Tempest put on the best smile she could, trying not to look unenthused in front of Kerfuffle. Though given how energetic she was, any reaction would be unenthused by comparison. “Soooo, what kind of matching thing did you want for your horn? A ring, a necklace, a cute little sock?” “Err…what did you have in mind already?” Tempest asked. “I mean, what kind of stuff have you already done for ponies’ horns?” “Oh I’m glad you asked!” Kerfuffle grabbed onto a box as she looked back at Tempest. “I made rings before, but if you want me to make something bigger, I can add like a full horn extension so you can wear stuff like this!” Kerfuffle dumped the contents of the box out on the floor. Tempest’s eyes widened, but it definitely wasn’t in awe. Horns were already phallic-shaped in the eyes of the most immature, but Kerfuffle took it to the next level of having various silicone molds of dicks shrunken down to be worn by a unicorn horn like the lovechild of fleshlight and dildo. Kerfuffle tried to hide her work, but the damage had already been done. “Oh jeez oh shoot ignore that ignore that ignore that!” After the initial shock wore off, Tempest let out a bewildered chuckle. “Well, that’s new. I’m surprised Rarity hasn’t thought of that yet.” It was almost noon, and Feather Bangs was starting to get antsy. Not that he didn’t believe Cozy Glow, but the Everfree Forest was so creepy. Come to think of it, she never specified where in the Everfree this mystery mare was going to be. Maybe it was some sort of exploration or hunt, which made things a little more exciting, but a few more details wouldn’t have hurt… Eventually he did stumble across a house in the middle of the forest. Not exactly an exotic looking tree house, but at least it looked lived in. Maybe this is what Cozy was talking about. As he approached, Feather heard shuffling from inside. Feeling more confident that this is what he was looking for, he strutted towards the door before knocking on it. “Hellooooo? I’m here to sweep you off your hooves!” The tall door almost immediately swung open. Instead of the reclusive mare that Feather expected, the massive, imposing form of Chrysalis stood there instead. “What do you want?” All the color drained from Feather Bangs’s face. He tried to turn tail and run, but his hooves wouldn’t move. “Hmmph, aren’t you going to hit on me?” Chrysalis glared down at the stallion, impatiently tapping her hoof against the ground. “Go on, I’m waiting for your best.” “I…I…!” Feather Bangs choked on his words. The menacing glare and sinister grin on the changeling’s face kept the stallion frozen. “What, I’m not good enough to hit on? Is that it?” Chrysalis asked mockingly. “Don’t you want to see how I can suck a stallion dry?” Despite Feather Bangs being immobilized by fear, that threat made at least one part of his body start moving… “What’s wrong, aren’t you the one that was looking for love?” Chrysalis taunted, lurching forward towards the terrified stallion. “Well as luck would have it, so am I…” Feather Bangs still couldn’t get anything more than a terrified squeak out from his lips. He went into a cold sweat as the changeling lowered her neck to meet him at eye level. He watched her lick her lips and her sharp teeth, feeling her hot breath against his own muzzle. “Don’t you want to be my partner? It gets awfully lonely out here. I’d love to go out on a date. I haven’t gotten lunch yet!” As Chrysalis leaned in closer, Feather Bangs’s body finally allowed some movement as he started leaning away from the changeling’s puckered lips. Chrysalis laughed mockingly. “Awww, come on, are you afraid of a few…love bites?” “Y-Yes!” Feather finally managed to spit out.  “Is it the fangs? Or my mane? Are they too scary for you?” A green fiery aura surrounded Chrysalis, transforming her entire body in a near instant. “Is this better, Feather Bangs?” Chrysalis asked, her voice a perfect copy of Princess Twilight, and the look to match. The hooves, the wings, the mane…if he hadn’t seen her change right in front of him, he would’ve sworn he was talking to Twilight right now. And that just made Feather Bangs more scared, knowing that who he was seeing and talking to wasn’t actually Twilight despite looking and sounding exactly like her. Chrysalis lifted Feather’s chin up, fluttering her eyelashes. “Come on, don’t you want to have a little fuuuun?” Feather could feel another stir of movement, but this time, it was in his legs. He could lift his hooves, and armed with that knowledge, he made an immediate decision. He made a mad dash away, running as fast as his hooves could move. Chrysalis scoffed and turned to go back into her own house, changing back to her regular form. “I’m going to kill that gremlin.” > Day 14: You Can't Hurry, Love > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- For Princess Cadence, most designated meetings were business-related: Diplomacy with other countries, discussing policy with the citizens, an Equestrian summit with Celestia, and very rarely a moment to spend time with Twilight. However, today she was allowed a little personal time to entertain a guest. He wasn’t somepony Cadence was particularly close to, yet she was very interested in having a chat with him. They stayed at one of the castle’s balconies, overlooking the rest of the empire. “So, Feather Bangs, we’re a couple weeks in, are you enjoying yourself so far?” Cadence asked. “Oh, definitely!” Feather Bangs chuckled. “I’ve already met so many lovely mares and other kinds of creatures already. And today, I get the chance to meet another one,” he winked, clicking his tongue and pointing at Cadence. Cadence leaned against the balcony, resting her chin on her hoof. “Do you just go around hitting on any female you see?” “Only the beautiful ones. And I’ve never met one that wasn’t beautiful.” It took a massive amount of self-restraint for Cadence not to roll her eyes, even playfully. “Though I am kinda curious,” Feather Bangs rubbed the back of his neck. “Not that I’m not flattered to be invited here, but uh…why me? It’s not like we know each other that well, though I wouldn’t be against getting to know you better.” “This is my first time hosting No Clop November, and I wanted to get some perspective,” Cadence explained. “A lot of the others have done this before, so I just wanted to see what a newcomer thinks about this whole thing.” “Well, when I got invited, it was pretty confusing,” Feather Bangs started. “I mean, an invitation to some kind of sexy competition from a princess I never even met? But one of the other ponies back home gave me the gist and convinced me to go. When I got there though, I was just…amazed by all the dazzling sights!” “Yeah? And what did you think about the Crystal Empire?” Cadence snarked. Feather Bangs laughed nervously as Cadence immediately called him out. “Well, to be honest, I’ve never really seen that much of Equestria before outside of my hometown. For a while, it’s all been…samey. So it’s been really cool to see all these different creatures from all over the world!” “I’ve heard you’ve been quite busy trying to be friendly with a lot of the other participants so far, any particular reason why?” Cadence asked, as if she didn’t already know the answer. “Well if you must know, princess. I’ve caught wind that ponies find a partner during these things. Might as well shoot my shot, ya know?” “Heh, normally those that participate are more focused on the orgy or trying to keep their horniness in check,” Cadence softly giggled, before getting another random twinge in her crotch that she tried to play off. Feather Bangs flippantly shrugged. “What can I say? I’m a sucker for love.” “So…what did you have in mind for me?” Feather Bangs felt his heart skip a beat. “...Huh?” “What kind of pick-up lines were you gonna use on me?” Cadence fluttered her eyelashes. “Come on, I’m curious.” Feather Bangs went into a nervous sweat. “Wait, seriously? Aren’t you like, happily married? I don’t want to be like a homewrecker or anything…!” Cadence giggled at how quickly Feather Bangs’s composure crumbled. “I assure you that my love for Shining is as strong as ever. But given the nature of this month, we’re open to a little…experimentation.” Feather Bangs started to stammer. This felt like the situation with Yona all over again, only this time with royalty. “I…uh…you’re kinda putting me on the spot here…” Cadence continued to press him. “I mean, surely you thought of something you wanted to say to me when you got the invitation to meet me today, right? Or was that thing you said about me being a lovely mare and wanting to know me better just empty words?” “No no no no no no, that’s not it at all! I just…uh…” Feather Bangs racked his brain, trying to think of something. “Um…uh…T-That crystal heart in your castle’s got a real bright shine, but if I’m being honest, your, uh…beauty is more blinding!” The smile on his face was clearly out of anxiety instead of charisma. “Mmm, not bad. I thought you were gonna talk about how the crystals are expensive, but meeting me is priceless,” Cadence mused. “Though Shining has swept me off my hooves by saying far less, I suppose…” Feather Bangs’s mouth was open, but words refused to come out. “That was just an anecdote, not advice,” Cadence teased. “Thanks for your input on the event, Feather Bangs. You’re pretty sweet and cute, and I hope you find the one you’re looking for.” That felt like a rejection, yet Feather Bangs felt oddly elated inside. “Um, uh…thanks!” Cadence looked at the clock and sighed. “Well, guess I got more princess duties to do, so-” “Wait!” Feather Bangs spoke up as Princess Cadence started to walk away. “Uh, could you maybe tell me how you and Shining Armor met? Like, how you two got together?” “You wanna hear about how we fell in love? Trying to pick up more tips, are we?” Cadence smirked. Feather Bangs shrugged with a nervous chuckle. “I mean, I’ve got the Princess of Love right here, no better place to learn, right? A-And I do really wanna know you better.” Cadence mulled it over for a second before nodding in agreement. “I guess it wouldn’t hurt to have you keep me company while I prepare for the arrivals of Spike, Thorax and Ms. Harshwhinny.” “...You said ‘Ms.’ and not ‘Mrs.’ right?” With Fluttershy running out to do some quick errands, she had left Discord and Tree Hugger in her cottage in her absence. Discord sat on the couch, grumpily crossing his arms and scowling at Tree Hugger’s stash of food like a child being put in time-out. “What’s so special about you anyway…?” he muttered to himself, picking up a brownie from the plate and popping it into his mouth. He chewed pensively before swallowing it down, shrugging in indifference. It was a tasty brownie, but nothing to write home about. Maybe another one would change his mind. He chewed another and his opinion changed very little. He was about to try another one before Tree Hugger caught him with it in his claw. “Aw dude, they’re great, right?” Discord hastily tried to put the brownie back on the plate. “They’re alright, I guess. I don’t know why Fluttershy’s going crazy about them.” Tree Hugger grabbed the brownie Discord put away, immediately taking a bite herself. “Just give it a bit of time to kick in.” “A bit,” Discord sneered. “Most baked goods are meant to give immediate gratification, followed by immediate regret.” Tree Hugger hopped onto the couch with Discord. “You’ll see in a bit, just relaaaaax,” she winked. “C’mon, let’s do something fun while we wait for Flutters to get back.” Discord gave a small smirk. “Very well, what do you suggest?” It wasn’t a request that Discord got often, but he was not about to turn down an opportunity to just openly play with another pony like this. With a little bit of magic, Discord made Tree Hugger’s body a lot more flexible. She could bend and twist and even squash and stretch her body around with no indication of pain or discomfort, allowing Discord to puppeteer her body to impossible positions. A simple use of his chaos magic, but undeniably a fun one when he could twist and bend a pony like rubber. For Tree Hugger, it was a new experience, but oddly blissful. With Discord posing her body to stretch her hooves to places they normally wouldn’t go, it felt like transcending the limits of her pony body. Time passed as Discord continued to toy with Tree Hugger’s body, twirling her around like a ballerina. “How much longer am I supposed to wait for it to ‘kick in’?” he huffed. “Aaaany second now, dude,” Tree Hugger responded, mellow and content as ever. Discord rolled his eyes. “If I have to wait another minute for these brownies I’m going tooooo…” he trailed off, his neck suddenly going limp and flopping onto the couch. “Yeeeeaaahhhhh…” Tree Hugger nodded in satisfaction. “There we go.” Discord shuddered and shivered himself back upright. “Bbbrbrbrbrb! That was…odd.” Tree Hugger grasped onto Discord’s paw. “It’s alright, just go with the flow. It’s gonna get a little weird, and that’s okay.” Discord flinched and pulled his paw away. “Oh puh-lease. Do you not remember who you’re talking to? I thrive off of weirdness! I…woooaaah…” As he tried to right himself back up, his entire body started fighting him, leaving him flopped down onto the couch.. “Yeah, those were the more powerful ones meant for me and Flutters,” Tree Hugger smiled. “It’s got a real kick to it.” “Don’t you talk to me about power! A-HAH!” Discord immediately clasped his hands over his mouth. “...That wasn’t even that funny.” Tree Hugger crawled onto Discord’s stomach, gently patting him in reassurance. “Just relaaaax…” “...Were you always that shade of green?” Discord stared at his own hands, unblinking, wondering why one of them had paws and the other didn’t when he heard Tree Hugger start to snicker on his stomach. “What’s so funny?” “It’s…it’s your dick, it’s like, really cute and stuff,” she giggled, poking at the tip. Discord immediately started to blush. “Hey, c’mon, it’s not cute!” he protested. “No, really! It’s got like, this really cute and unique aura to it!” “Yeah? Well your ‘bushy forest’ has its own energy, too,” Discord sarcastically jabbed. Tree Hugger smirked, lifting up her tail and grinding her flank on Discord’s noodly chest. “Really? Fluttershy told me that too.” Discord could feel the wet and sticky drippings from Tree Hugger slide down his body. “Well, what kind of ‘vibes’ are you getting from me, then?” Tree Hugger scooted closer to Discord’s crotch, holding her hooves a few inches from his shaft. “Mmm, I’m getting a lot of different kinds of vibes, dude. It’s like, a bunch of different voices talking over each other, but they’re all saying the same thing.” Discord pursed his lips. That at least sounded vaguely like him. “And what are they saying to you?” “...Eat me.” With a soft giggle, Tree Hugger gave the tip of Discord’s dick a kiss before slipping in past her lips. Discord’s body tensed up, looking down his body to see what Tree Hugger was doing, but seeing nothing but her flank and wet pussy instead. “Well…what a coincidence…that’s the same kind of energy I’m getting from you.” Being much longer, Discord easily bent his body to accommodate as he brought his face closer to Tree Hugger’s crotch. Tree Hugger hummed in delight. She could feel her back half being lifted up as Discord’s tongue started to tease her vulva. She took her time to work the rest of his shaft into her mouth. Not out of a choking hazard fear, but to just savor the moment as each second took a minute to tick by. Discord’s shaft started throbbing as he used his tongue to slowly run across Tree Hugger’s inner walls. Tree Hugger nearly threw her head back to moan at finally being penetrated. She finally worked all of Discord’s dick into her mouth, then started to bob her head up and down. To match, Discord plunged deeper. His long, forked tongue was able to snake around to hit all of Tree Hugger’s pleasure spots. Tree Hugger lifted up her head to catch her breath and moan before going back down. “Woah…fuck, dude…keep doing that!” Discord grabbed onto Tree Hugger’s flanks, using them as leverage to hold his head in place, but also to spread her legs apart. Tree Hugger got into a rhythm of bobbing her head, spurred on by how intense Discord was lapping away. Discord was making circles with his tongue before he suddenly stopped, a small chortle leaving his lips and going right into Tree Hugger’s crotch. He pulled himself away, barely composed. “Y-Ya know, Treezie, I knew these things were supposed to give you the munchies…but…but…baaaahahahahahahaha!” he leaned forward, laughing right into the mare’s pussy. Discord’s laughter, while very pleasurable, was also highly contagious. She started giggling while Discord’s throbbing cock was in her mouth. She tried to keep pleasuring him, but she soon found herself laughing as hard as he was. Their horny impulses had ground to a halt as the two just lay there on the couch, laughing at a punchline that never even happened, leaking pre all over the couch. Even as the laughter died down, they were still giggling as they resumed, the barely restrained mirth mixing in with pleasure as Tree Hugger’s tongue lapped at Discord’s colorful tip, and Discord coiled his own tongue to move in and out of the pony’s pussy. As they got closer and closer to an orgasm, more moaning mixed in with the giggling. Their lips buzzed in just the right places to create a seemingly endless feedback loop between pony and draconequus, until their pleasure finally reached a high, with Discord firing off first, and Tree Hugger following shortly after. A double elimination meant that two more crystal hearts would change. In the middle of her story, Cadence immediately pulled Feather Bangs away to observe the magic in action. “Wait wait wait wait, what’s going on, Princess?” “Look! It’s happeniiiiing!” They got to witness the spectacle of two hearts spinning rapidly, permanently reflecting the scene of the messy 69 session. With two of them being out from the same thing, each heart reflected half of the picture, being completed by the other heart. “Yessss!” Cadence pumped her hooves. “I knew they’d get along eventually!” “Wow…that’s…quite a lot of work you put into this…” Feather Bangs was impressed by the spectacle, but now that he saw it first-hoof, he was even more deterred by the prospect of losing. As the pair were giggling and moaning on the couch in the afterglow, Fluttershy finally returned to see the mess that they made. Half-eaten food scattered about, the unmistakable smell of cum, brownies, and plants in the air, and more importantly, her two friends burying their faces in each other's crotches. “Oh for fuck’s sake…” > Day 15: Before A Fall > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- “...This is a weird combination of characters.” Gallus stared blankly at the three companions he had with him. All of them in the bustling town of Ponyville. The darkly-colored unicorn with an equally darker sweater, cowpony in full western wear, griffon, and buffalo were surrounded by all these bright and colorful, nudist ponies. In comparison, they all stood out. “No kidding…” Tempest muttered to herself. Sure, she was still a pony, but the vibrant and chipper atmosphere just wasn’t her style. Little Strongheart was still trying to get out of her comfort zone, she was getting to know the rest of her fellow competitors, but she felt a lot more at ease with Braeburn by her side, just to have a nice familiar face to fall back to. Braeburn was quite comfortable being in Ponyville. He was always happy to see all the friendly faces around, plus he had family living here. It was just a nice place to be. Then there was Gallus, who had pretty much made the town his new home. He was a lot happier with his new friends, but seeing mostly ponies around all the time made him wish for the company of Gabby or Gilda at times. “So, what brings you all here, anyway?” Gallus asked, trying to make sense of his present company. Tempest looked over to the massive crystal castle in the distance. “Well, Twilight wanted me to check up on something in the Everfree Forest. Don’t know exactly what, but it’s not like I can turn down a favor from her. And if she wanted my help, it probably means I get to kick somepony’s sorry ass, so that’ll be fun.” “I…wanted to check up on Yona,” Little Strongheart explained. “I know it’s a bit too late, all things considered, but if she went all the way to Appleloosa for me, then it’s only fair that I travel to Ponyville for her!” Braeburn wrapped his hoof around Strongheart’s shoulder. “Plus it gives her a good excuse to meet some of the others in this town!” Little Strongheart sheepishly chuckled. “Y-Yes, that too…” Gallus raised an eyebrow in fascination. “Huh, Yona went all the way to the desert to visit you? Why would she go all the way there to-” He looked over and got one good look at Braeburn. “Ohhh, yeah that tracks.” Little Strongheart looked at Tempest. “By the way, Miss…Tempest, right? That’s a really nice horn ring you’ve got.” Tempest looked up to the golden ring that rested on the base of her horn, its emerald gemstone gleaming in the light. “O-Oh, um…thanks?” She had nearly forgotten that she had it on in the first place, it almost felt natural to wear. Gallus sidled up a little bit closer to Tempest. “And that was Miss Tempest, right?” He twiddled his talons, trying to figure out the meaning of the ring. “...As of now, yes,” Tempest answered, starting to side-eye the griffon. “Alright, cool.” Gallus nonchalantly nodded, but deep inside he was pumping both fists in excitement. Of course, Tempest saw right through the facade. “Why? You thinking of adding another ring to my horn?” Gallus’s pupils shrank. “I…No! That’s not what…uh…” His cheeks started to fill up with blush as he saw Tempest smirk. “I mean, there’s not a lot of space left there, so you gotta have some good reason to have me take it off, right?” Gallus started to choke on his words, trying to look everywhere but the unicorn’s direction. “I just, I was just, uh, c-curious to…um…” Tempest lifted Gallus’s chin up, forcing him to look her in the eye. “Or maybe…” her voice suddenly dropped to be lower, more breathy, more seductive. “You wanted to know if the miss was short for…mistress.” Pomf! Gallus was stunned into silence. The way Tempest was practically whispering to him, the firm hoof under his chin, the fire in her eyes, all of it made Gallus instantly stiff. “Either way, I’d only be interested if you have some fight in you,” she said, poking Gallus’s chest. “Think you got what it takes?” Gallus let out a whimpering squeak, more focused on trying to hide his boner from Tempest’s view. Little Strongheart leaned over to Braeburn to whisper. “Should we be watching this?” “Dunno, but I kinda wanna see how it turns out.” Tempest clicked her tongue and smirked. “What sort of stuff would you want from me? Tie you up? Make you lick my hooves? Step on you?” All of that sounded great to Gallus. Even if he didn’t say it out loud, his eyes widening and his wings twitching at Tempest’s last suggestion said it for him. A soft chuckle left Tempest's lips as she lightened up. “Well, you still got two more weeks.” Gallus was left dumbfounded, jaw dropped and legs trembling. If Sandbar got word about this, he’d never hear the end of it. Tempest turned back to Strongheart as if nothing had happened. “You know, I don’t usually wear stuff like this, but…it’s growing on me.” “Well that’s good! Cause you look really pretty with it on!” Now Tempest was the one getting flustered. “I…t-thanks…” “Ya know, if you were really serious about all that stuff earlier…” Braeburn leaned over to Tempest. “I could teach you a rope trick or two…” Tempest pursed her lips. “That’d be helpful. Sure, I’ll take you up on that offer, Braeburn.” “Heh, great!” Braeburn chuckled, pulling out some rope. “Let’s start with a simple hogtie…” Tempest jumped in surprise. “Wait, right now?” Gallus snapped out of his stupor. “As in ‘right now’ right now?!” “Well, ‘course! No better time than the present! Now hold still, Gallus, ya don’t wanna risk the rope burn.” Gallus opened his beak to protest, but was quickly pushed over by Little Strongheart to go belly-up. Braeburn started up his impromptu bondage seminar. “Now, ya gotta tie the front legs and the back legs separately, and then link them together with another rope. That’ll give some comfortable wiggle room, but still keep ‘em there. Now, start wrapping the rope around his wrists a couple of times.” As Tempest did what Braeburn instructed, Gallus closed his eyes. Being tied up by Tempest was the nice part of this, but he was just praying that no one else that he knew would see this display. “Holy shit, is that Gallus?” “Oh fuck.” Gallus saw the upside-down figures of Smolder and Silverstream sprinting over to see him getting tied up. “Wow, Gallus, I did not take you for the type to do this stuff publicly!” Silverstream giggled. “This is some hardcore preparation dude,” Smolder said, unable to stop the smirk from growing on her face. “Oh wow! You must be friends of Gallus, Sandbar, and Yona! It’s great to meet you!” Little Strongheart waved. “Yep! What’s going on here?” Silverstream asked. Braeburn patted Tempest’s back as she finished tying the knots. “Well, Tempest here just wanted to try out some rope tricks to prep for the orgy!” Smolder looked down at Gallus repeatedly bonking his head against the dirt. “And I thought you just wanted her to step on you.” Tempest’s gaze shifted towards Gallus’s face with a smirk. “Did he, now?” “Just fucking kill me now.” “Excellent. Well, see you tomorrow, Ms. Harshwhinny,” Princess Cadence politely waved as the earth pony left the crystal conference room. “Yes, good day, princess.” With a firm, confident strut in her step, Harshwhinny walked through the halls of the castle, wanting to make it back to her hotel to rest. Though before she could even make it out of the castle, she was met with a non-crystal stallion sliding in front of her, striking some sort of odd pose that she guessed was meant to be seductive. “Why hello, Ms. Harshwhinny.” Feather Bangs flipped his mane and winked. “How are you? I trust that your conference with Princess Cadence went well?” Harshwhinny raised a tired eyebrow. This clearly didn’t look like one of the castle guards or attendants, and yet he seemed quite interested in her for some reason. “Erm…yes? Did you…need something from me?” Feather Bangs let out a soft, playful chuckle. “Not at all. In fact, I should be asking if you needed something from me.” “Oh, Princess Cadence must have asked for you to attend to me,” Harshwhinny nodded, though she was curious why this stallion didn’t look to be in uniform like all the other staff. “Err…something like that, yeah.” “Well, I appreciate her dedication and diligence, but I will not be requiring your services at this time.” Feather Bangs watched his opportunity walking past him. “W-Wait, can I at least accompany you to your hotel?” Harshwhinny saw little point in needing protection in the relatively peaceful Crystal Empire. Still, the stallion seemed quite adamant, and she’d hate for him to believe that he was failing Princess Cadence. “...It won’t be a very long walk, but very well.” “Yessss!” As Feather Bangs was pumping his hoof, Ms. Harshwhinny was already at the castle’s door. “Well? Are you going to accompany me or not?” “Oh! Um, coming!” Feather Bangs walked side-by-side with Harshwhinny through the Crystal Empire. Though even though he had set himself up with the perfect opportunity and was as close as he could get, Ms. Harshwhinny felt quite unapproachable. The way she held her head up high, the coldness in her gaze, the stiff and proper way she carried herself…all of it felt like a massive wall that was put up. But perhaps Feather Bangs could find a way to crack through it. “So…how have you been holding up so far?” Feather Bangs asked. It was a very direct question, but Harshwhinny seemed like a very direct mare. Harshwhinny’s eyes darted over to Feather Bangs for a split second. “My visit to the Crystal Empire has been quite pleasant, all things considered.” “Well, I was more wondering about your month, actually. I can’t imagine it’s been easy, but I figure a goal-focused mare like you would be getting by without much trouble.” “Yes, well, it’s hardly an issue when you’re properly organized,” Harshwhinny said, priding herself on her professional planning. Feather Bangs nodded along. “Yeah, I bet being so focused means you don’t have to worry about all those distractions that pop up every now and again.” “Precisely!” Harshwhinny showed a small, curt smile. “You seem to understand, Mister…” “Oh, you can call me Feather Bangs.” “Well, Mister Bangs, I’m glad you understand the importance of being focused on your goals.” “Thanks!” Well, he got a little smile out of her. That was a start. “Well, speaking of plans…” He could feel a bit of the rejection heartbreak coming. “...did you have any for the end of the month?” Harshwhinny pursed her lip. “Well, that’s quite a while away, but I’m hoping that these meetings with Princess Cadence will allow me to improve the quality of life in the broader expanse of Equestria.” Feather Bangs stared blankly. “Oh…uh…That’s great and all, but I was thinking more along the lines of if you had somepony, or dragon or griffon or whatever in mind for the end of the month.” “...Pardon?” “I mean, I’m sure it’d be distracting, but I wouldn’t want to go into the orgy without some sort of idea of what I wanted to do, right?” “Oh! Oh…” It started to dawn on Harshwhinny just what Feather Bangs had been talking about this whole time. Her cheeks started to blush with shock and embarrassment. “Mister Bangs, are you truly asking if-?!” Feather Bangs took a step back, just in case. “Well, I wanted to know for sure! I figured a proper, professional mare like you would have this kind of thing scheduled out already. I just wanted to see if there would be any room in there for me.” A short, bewildered laugh left Harshwhinny’s lips. “Oh, would you truly want to waste your time with an old mare like me?”  Feather Bangs re-took a step closer. “Are you kidding? It wouldn’t be a waste of time if we were enjoying ourselves. In fact, I’m enjoying myself right now.” “Please,” Harshwhinny scoffed, though she couldn’t stop herself from smiling. “I bet you say that to all the mares.” “Well, only to the beautiful ones,” he chuckled. “But I bet that you’ve already gotten all that orgy stuff planned down to the second.” “And I bet that you already have plenty of mares throwing themselves at your hooves,” Harshwhinny smirked. “Well, maybe there’s a chance we could make time for each other?” “I’ll keep my schedule open, Mister Bangs.” The short walk ended with them both making it to the hotel room, where Feather Bangs bid a temporary farewell to Ms. Harshwhinny. “Ha! Still got it,” they both thought to themselves as they walked away. > Day 16: In My Professional Opinion > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- “You sure that thing works for you, Shining?” Thorax asked, bending his neck low to check his package underneath. “Yep! Been totally foolproof for years!” Shining boasted. “Go on,” he nudged Thorax’s side. “Give it a stroke, won’t feel a thing!” Both rulers of their respective kingdoms were passing time in the Crystal Empire, with Shining currently boasting about the effectiveness of his Chastity Shield. Thorax looked at Shining suspiciously, “Really? …Alright…” He cautiously put a hoof onto Shining’s flaccid cock, giving the shaft a few testing touches. Shining Armor still stood proudly, his face not even giving off a twinge of surprise or arousal, even though his body showed otherwise. Thorax watched as Shining’s cock grew to its full, hardened length. Despite the repeated strokes he was giving to his shaft, the unicorn wasn’t breaking a sweat or blushing at all. “You’re not feeling this at all?” “Nope! Not a thing!” “But…you’re so…hard…” Thorax pulled his hoof away, just for a moment. Shining’s shaft was throbbing and twitching. It looked so needy, despite how calm and collected Shining looked. Seeing Thorax’s own privates stand at attention made Shining chuckle. “Yeah, but I won’t be able to cum unless me and Cady perform the spell together.” “That’s so cooooool…” Thorax was awestruck. “So if you can’t cum, could I try…?” “Heh, go ahead.” It was admittedly a bit of a gamble, but Shining was confident in his creation, and Thorax looked super needy. Thorax gently nudged Shining onto his back, exposing his belly and his shaft to the sky. With a lustful growl, he started stroking and kissing the throbbing, twitching shaft, feeding off all the lust it was emanating. Shining watched Thorax have at him with a soft smile on his face. He was happy to help the changeling king get rid of a few pent-up frustrations, but he was worried that Thorax might get rid of too much. Luckily, he could easily keep a cool head when he might not have been able to otherwise. “So needy…so…horny! Ah!” Thorax gasped, his eyes fully trained on Shining’s shaft, his mouth opening up wide to not only let out some desperate exhales, but to start working Shining’s cock into his mouth. “O-kay! I think I gotta cut you off there, buddy.” Shining gently put his hoof on Thorax’s forehead, gently pushing him back. “Plenty of time for that during the orgy.” Thorax took some deep breaths to come to his senses. “I…yeah…whew! Thanks, Shining. Probably would’ve gotten myself out if you didn’t stop me.” “Heh, don’t mention it. You feel a little better now, though?” “Mmhm!” Thorax nodded. “Now I kinda wish that Ember could do magic so that we could try that spell out too!” Inspired, Shining was already immediately conjuring up plans for the next iteration, until his train of thought was interrupted. “Dude, is Shining showing off his dumb Chastity Shield again?” Both heads turned to look. “Spike?!” The dragon smirked as he sauntered over. “Unless he was just tapping out, in which case, I’ll help.” Shining and Thorax quickly looked at the compromising position they were in before scrambling to stand up straight. “What, uh…what brings you to the Crystal Empire, Spike?” Thorax asked. “Eh, got bored,” Spike shrugged. “Wanted to see how Shining was doing. Maybe check up on his plans considering some of mine have been falling through.” “Yeah, I guess we are kinda getting at that point…” Shining nodded solemnly. “Almost lost Thorax too, it looked like,” Spike joked, playfully nudging the changeling in the ribs. “C’mon man, who else is gonna do all the weird shit for me?” Thorax playfully rolled his eyes. “Alright, I’ll stick it out for you, Spike. Though you can’t be mad when everyone’s already lined up to get a piece of me.” Thorax’s bragging instantly got scoffs and giggles from the other two. “Yeah, you’re such a stud,” Spike smirked. “What? I am!” Thorax insisted. “I’m probably the top guy on everyone’s list.” “I might have believed that if you weren’t thirsting over me a minute ago,” Shining chuckled. “I think that comfortably puts me at the top.” Spike rolled his eyes. “Yeah, for Thorax, maybe. But c’mon, what girl’s gonna resist this dragon bod?” He pounded his chest, snorting out smoke through his nostrils with pride. Just as they started to argue, Ms. Harshwhinny walked past, looking far more disgruntled than usual. The three guys exchanged looks, instantly knowing what they needed to do. “Miss Harshwhinny! Miss Harshwhinny! Miss Harshwhinny!” The mare turned around, seeing the three pursuing her. It immediately looked to be a pain, but given what happened yesterday, she was willing to entertain the thought. “Woah, are you alright, Miss Harshwhinny?” Shining asked. “Did something happen at the meeting?” “Well, I’m quite fine, Mister Armor. Your wife, on the other hoof, might need some help.” Shining’s eyes widened. “Wait, Cadence? What happened?” “I’m not sure. We were having a nice, normal meeting until she started moaning and pounding the table like a madmare in heat!” she scoffed. “I don’t know what caused such an outburst of emotion, but it was as if she was pleasuring herself underneath the table.” Shining tapped his chin. “Huh…why would she…?” “I’d also love an answer. I’m surprised she didn’t go over the edge with how wild she got.” As Shining tried to think, Spike stepped in to get the conversation rolling. “So, Miss Harshwhinny, you’re a smart, talented mare with a keen, discerning eye for talent and skill, right?” he asked, clearly trying to suck up early. “Yes, what of it, Mister the Dragon?” she asked, raising an eyebrow. “Well, considering the orgy’s coming up pretty soon,” Thorax said, tapping his hooves together. “We wanted to hear the opinion from a professional…which of us would you have sex with first?” “Rather direct, Mister Thorax,” Harshwhinny mused. “Though an interesting proposal, I admit I haven’t given much thought to it, yet. Perhaps you three can sell me on why I should pick you.” Thorax put a hoof to his chest. “Well, for starters, as a changeling, I can transform myself into whatever you desire. Pony, griffon, dragon, male or female, or even both! Whatever fantasy you have, I can fulfill it!” Spike bumped Thorax aside. “Yeah, that’s nice. But he may be able to transform into a dragon, but I’ve got way more experience using these things,” he grinned, wiggling and flexing his claws. “Plus, I can do this…” Spike opened his mouth, letting the long, forked tongue roll out. He waggled his eyes as he demonstrated how long and flexible his tongue was. “Well, I don’t mean to brag…” Shining said. “Buuuut I am the only one out of the three that’s married. And I’m sure that Cadence can easily testify to my abilities in the bedroom. Though I’ve also got a few tricks that keep things spiced up. I always do my best to please her, of course.” He puffed out his chest. “She may be the Princess of Love, but I’m the Prince of Love.” “Hmm…I see…” Harshwhinny nodded. The three guys looked at her with wide, sparkling eyes as they awaited her judgment. “I may need a bit more time to think, but the current frontrunner in my mind is Mister Bangs.” “Wait, WHAT?” “I am looking forward to the day where you all prove yourselves, though.” Ms. Harshwhinny smirked and walked away, leaving the three in shock. Tempest went off into the Everfree Forest, as stoic and straight-faced as ever. The supposed terrors of the forest were nothing to somepony who’s seen nearly everything. After a briefing by Twilight and Fluttershy, somepony was being terrorized by a changeling living there, and she was instructed to make sure they weren’t causing any further trouble. A simple enough task, at least from how it sounded. Following Fluttershy’s instructions, she made it to the humble forest home. She didn’t need to investigate further, as the changeling in question threw open the door. “Let me guess, one of Twilight’s little lackeys,” Chrysalis sneered, baring her fangs. “And you must be the former queen of the changelings,” Tempest scoffed, stepping forward, undaunted. Chrysalis licked her lips and grinned, meeting Tempest halfway. “Well then, to what do I owe the pleasure? I can’t imagine many coming here by choice.” “Just making sure you’re not causing any further trouble,” Tempest said, looking upwards, her breathing still calm and steady despite Chrysalis’s menacing grin. “Oh please, what could I possibly do that’d be so baaaad?” The sarcasm dripped off Chrysalis’s forked tongue. “I can think of a few ideas.” Chrysalis scrunched her muzzle at how unfettered Tempest was. “And what are you going to do? What if I’m feeling particularly naughty today?” She lifted up Tempest’s chin, but Tempest quickly gripped onto her hoof with a frighteningly strong grip. “I can think of a few punishments,” Tempest growled, squeezing Chrysalis’s leg tighter. Chrysalis’s eyes briefly widened as she struggled to try to break free of Tempest’s grip. “...Fine, I’ll try my best to behave.” Without changing expression, Tempest let go of her hoof.  Chrysalis rubbed her leg to try and ease the pain, still trying to act tough, though with the confrontation over, all it did was make things linger in awkward silence. “...You’re strong. I’m impressed.” Tempest finally cracked a smirk. “Hmph, you’re just lucky I didn’t have to wrestle you to the ground.” “Well, there’s always an opportunity later on, what do you say?” Chrysalis’s tongue licked her sharp fangs. “Tempting,” Tempest chuckled as she turned around to leave. “But I’m not sure I should be punishing you for good behavior…” “Oooh, you must be that handsome stallion my friends are talking about!” Feather Bangs instantly blushed. “Heh, they were calling me handsome?” “Oh yeah!” Kerfuffle nodded. “After I heard from them what you were doing, I was just waiting for my turn!” “Well, sorry to keep you waiting,” Feather Bangs chuckled, running a hoof through his mane. “But you should know good things come for those who wait.” Kerfuffle started giggling and snorting. “Oh gosh, you’re such a charmer! Can I take you home with me?” “Heh, well I’d be happy to accompany you home! I bet your house is as stylish as you look right now.” Kerfuffle flailed her hoof, trying to deflect the flattery away. “Ohhh, stop it you!” “I’m serious! You look really good! I love that fluffy vest you have on!” “Pssshh, what? This old thing?” Kerfuffle sputtered. “Oh, it’s nothing special, I made this ages ago!” Feather Bangs’s eyes twinkled. “Wait, YOU made it? That’s even more amazing! You must be really skilled with your hooves to pull all this off.” Kerfuffle playfully pushed the stallion away. “Quit it, these are just like, old rags I put on!” “Well, if that’s the case, then maybe you can show me some of your newer stuff at your place?” Feather Bangs waggled his eyebrows. “Or maybe you can make something new instead…” “Oooh, you sly devil!” Kerfuffle gave Feather Bangs a playful punch on the shoulder. “If ya wanted me to make something for ya, you could’ve just asked!” “In my defense, you did just spring this information on me very recently,” he chuckled. “It’s not too much trouble, is it? I wouldn’t want to make you work your pretty hooves too hard just for me. Especially when I could be rubbing and kissing them instead.” “Nuh-uh, mister! You already put the idea in my head!” Kerfuffle giggled. “And I think I have the perfect plan for you!” “Already? You’re a quick thinker. What is it?” Kerfuffle turned around to show off her prosthetic. “Easy! You can have something to match with me! I’ve already made some for the other friends I’ve made!” The shiny golden engravings on Kerfuffle’s leg easily caught Feather Bangs’s attention, as he started picturing himself decked out in all sorts of golden garb. Maybe a chain necklace, or a belt, or some horseshoes… “Ooh, I bet Tempest and Celaeno are gonna be thrilled to hear about this!” “Wait, huh?” Feather Bangs’s fantasy was immediately replaced by flashbacks of their not-so-stellar first encounters. “Oh yeah, they were the ones who told me about you, doncha know?” she giggled. “This is gonna be so fun! I can’t wait to see the look on their faces when they see what I’ve done to you!” “Uhhh…y-yeah…I can’t either…!” > Day 17: Greenhorn(y) > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Out in one of Ponyville’s scenic parks, Sandbar relaxed underneath the shade of the golden leaves of the trees, enjoying the cool breeze of the autumn air. A deep, cathartic sigh left his mouth as he leaned back against the trunk of the tree. As he was taking in the view, the sound of leaves crunching underneath hooves told him somepony was getting closer. “Oh hey, what took you so long?” “Oh, sorry dude,” Tree Hugger nonchalantly shrugged. “Got held up with some stuff, you know how it is.” “Ah, yeah,” Sandbar sympathetically nodded. “Well, it’s no big deal, we still got plenty of time to relax.” “Totally.” Tree Hugger joined Sandbar underneath the tree, just staring blankly out into the open, relaxing in the moment. Sandbar was content with sitting with his friend in blissful silence, but something was picking in the back of his mind. “Hey, you’re not like, upset?” Tree Hugger cracked an eye open. “Hm?” “I dunno, it’s your first No Clop November, and you went out before the halfway point…” Sandbar tapped his hooves together. “Ohoho, that!” Tree Hugger chuckled. “Nah, it’s cool.” “...Really? Not bummed out at all?” Tree Hugger dismissively waved her hoof. “These things happen, little dude. I may have had my fun a little earlier than I should’ve, but I don’t wanna ruin anyone else’s vibe with a depressing aura, y’know?” Sandbar conceded the point. “Huh, you’re taking it better than most would, at least.” “Would I have liked to join you at the orgy? Yeah.” Tree Hugger playfully punched him on the shoulder. “But don’t let me stop you from having fun.” “Hah, don’t worry, I won’t.” “So? What kinda stuff do you have planned?” Tree Hugger asked. “Paint a picture in my mind with your words.” A small blush appeared on Sandbar’s cheeks. “Well, given who’s left, I think I’d like to try something out with Little Strongheart. From what Yona and Gallus have told me, she seems pretty nice…Might end up as a three-way with her and Braeburn, though I’m totally cool with that.” Tree Hugger nodded along. “Mmm, sounds good.” “After that? Hmm…” Sandbar tapped his hoof against the ground. “I’ve heard some good things from Spike so….maybe Thorax? I think he’d be a really crazy experience.” “Oh yeah?” For a second, Sandbar swore that he saw Tree Hugger’s eye twitch. He nervously shifted his eyes back and forth as if what he was about to confess was a massive secret. “But uh…I don’t wanna jinx it, because I really want this one. I’m kiiiiinda saving this pent-up energy for Princess Celestia.” “Shocker,” Tree Hugger smirked as she rolled her eyes. “I mean yeah, she’s a princess and all and it’s not like royalty hasn’t participated in this stuff before, but like, there’s just something about her that’s just…amazing…” Sandbar held his hooves out in front of his face with wonder twinkling in his eyes. “Oh, do go on…” Sandbar got more and more flustered the longer he tried to explain himself. “Well, every time you see her out in public it’s like she’s got this regal and dignified but also mysterious aura to her, ya know? And if you get the chance to talk to her, it’s like, she’s so nice and pleasant to be around. And sometimes, you get like a cheeky comment from her, and it’s like ‘Wow, did she really say that?’ Like you see a hint of a side of her that you never thought was there before, and you just want to find out more and so you just want to try and find out more…so…um…yeah.” “Sounds like you really love her, don’t you?” Tree Hugger chuckled, licking her lips. “Yeah, I mean, not as much as Yona, obviously, but, ehehehe…” A bashful Sandbar nervously laughed and rubbed the back of his head. Tree Hugger motioned for Sandbar to continue. “Doesn’t seem that obvious to me. What’s got you…’vibing’ with Yona?” “Well, she’s super energetic and always open about her feelings…” Sandbar was about to continue gushing about Yona until he noticed somepony else approaching. Somepony that looked…exactly like Tree Hugger. “Sorry dude,” the pony apologized. “Would’ve gotten back sooner but I got held up with some stuff, you know how it is…” Sandbar slowly turned to look at the Tree hugger laying next to him, and then to the Tree Hugger standing in front of him. “Wait…which one is…?” Rather than drag things out with a mystery, the Tree Hugger laying down let out a sinister laugh as green magic swirled around her to reveal a certain tall, imposing changeling. “Well, that was a quick and easy meal.” Sandbar quickly yelped and scrambled backwards, while Tree Hugger merely grinned with a “Niiiiice!”  “Now then, let me ask you something, Sandbar…” Chrysalis sneered, towering over the scared stallion. “Oh fuck…” Sandbar gulped, seeing his life start to flash before his eyes. Chrysalis leaned down, making sure her hot breath hit Sandbar’s muzzle. “All that prattle on about Celestia, all those traits you say you love about her. Please. I could do all that and more.” Sandbar’s entire body was trembling. “Uh-huh?” “So…wouldn’t you want to give me some love, too?” “...Yeah, maybe?” “Ha! You miserable ponies are all the-wait what?” Sandbar whimpered and hid his face behind his hooves. Chrysalis blinked, looking down to see that Sandbar was still shaking with fear…but was also starting to get hard. “Oh…I…” At a loss for words, Chrysalis stood up and looked at Tree Hugger. “I just 69’d with Discord, so yeah, I’d smash,” Tree Hugger said, almost sounding like she was bragging. Chrysalis looked back and forth between Sandbar and Tree Hugger with a mix of confusion and repulsion. “I…I need a minute…” she said, hastily running off, leaving a trail of terrified pony screams as she went. Tree Hugger helped Sandbar up to his hooves. “You alright, dude?” “Yeah…I-I think so…” he nodded, his heart still beating a mile a minute. Tree Hugger glanced in the direction Chrysalis ran off in. “Did you actually mean it when you said you’d give her some love?” Sandbar’s face twisted into a very conflicted and hesitant look. “Kiiiinda? I mean, she’s scary, mean, selfish, and terrifying, but like…there are some things that are kinda hot about her!” “I can think of a big reason…” Feather Bangs spotted two more of the last few mares on his list. Eager to be efficient, he quickly checked to see if his mane was in prime flipping position before sauntering over. Twilight Velvet and Windy Whistles quickly took notice of the stallion with a confident swagger in his step approaching them. “Oh, well what do we have here?” Windy said. “Why hello, ladies,” Feather Bangs winked. “Could I interest either of you two beautiful mares in a good time? Or perhaps, both of you?” Both mares giggled, deciding to entertain whatever Feather Bangs was planning. “Oh? What kind of good time?” Velvet asked. Feather Bangs squeezed himself between the two of them. “Well, I was thinking we could get a morning coffee, afternoon picnic, or maybe a candlelit dinner so that we could get to know each other better.” “‘Or’?” Windy smirked, pressing her cheek against his. “We can’t have all three?” Feather Bangs felt a drop of sweat form on his forehead. “All three? I mean…sure!” he nervously chuckled. “That’s practically spending the whole day together! What could be better?” Twilight Velvet squished against the stallion’s other cheek. “Now hold on, what about me? Don’t I get some attention?” “Of course! T-There’s plenty of Feather Bangs to go around!” Feather Bangs felt his entire face heat up with blush. “Oh sweetie, is that too much?” Velvet cooed. “We can just do a dinner together if you prefer.” Feather Bangs let out a mix of a nervous chuckle and a sigh of relief. “That works out great…!” Windy put a hoof underneath the shaking stallion’s chin. “You won’t mind taking both of us out at the same time, right?” “Of course not! I’ll do my best to give both of you the attention and love you so rightfully deserve.” Windy squealed with excitement. “Oooh, I don’t know when the last time my husband took me out for a candlelit dinner!” “Well I know the last time my husband took me out to dinner,” Velvet smirked. Feather Bangs nearly felt his heart stop. “Wait, HUSBAND?!” The backpedaling started instantly. “Oh gosh, I am SO sorry, ma’ams! I had no idea! I didn’t see anypony else with you that might have looked like a husband-” Seeing how immediately flustered Feather Bangs became got a good laugh out of the two moms. “It’s alright! They didn’t come with us to the Crystal Empire at the start of the month, of course you wouldn’t have seen them!” Velvet said, trying to reassure him. “S-Still, I’m so sorry for-” “Oh, for what, hitting on us?” Windy gigglesnorted. She leaned in close with a cheeky grin. “Honestly, having a young and charming stallion like you flirting with me? Oh it made me feel so young!” Feather Bangs blinked. “...Really? I mean, I don’t know if you needed me for that, you two look like lovely young mares already!” he said, quickly bouncing back from his humiliation. “Ooh, you’re such a charmer!” Velvet grinned. “Keep that up, and I might be taking you out to dinner!” “Ehehe, I don’t know,” Feather Bangs nervously rubbed the back of his neck. “The orgy’s one thing, but I think your romantic dates are better saved for the ones you already married.” “I suppose you have a fair point,” Windy nodded, before letting out a loud gasp. “Buuut, if you are still looking for a date, I think I know somepony who might be your tyyyyype…” Celaeno’s fingers fidgeted with the spokes of the helm. Not enough to drastically alter steering, but enough to make the airship she was piloting sway just a little bit more than usual. “I can do this…I can do this…” she quietly muttered to herself, trying to keep her mind focused on the clear skies ahead instead of everything else that was clouding her thoughts. Her talons dug just a little bit deeper into the wooden steering wheel as she tried to laser-focus herself on the blue sky in front of her. “I don’t need it, I can go without it…” A bead of sweat went down the back of her neck. The bright blue of the sky started to remind her of other things. Of friends. Of things that she wished she had her mitts on right now. “It’s fine…I’m fine…” Celaeno’s leg was trembling, “I’m fine…I’m fine…I’m…I’m…” She clicked her tongue against her beak, exclaiming “Fuck it,” before spinning the wheel, veering her ship off to a new destination. The parrot captain managed to keep herself composed until she arrived. Though she didn’t have a map to where she wanted to go, she knew she was still in the right place. The smoky atmosphere and sweltering heat were hard to forget, after all. She peered off the side, making sure that she was alone before anchoring her ship. She’d have to do the last bit of her trek on foot, but it’d be so worth it. Celaeno wiped off the sweat, letting out a sigh of relief as she arrived at a mountain. Several cave entrances stood in front of her, and she swore they were all calling her name. Already about to burst from excitement, Celaeno picked the closest cave and sprinted in. What lay inside was exactly what Celaeno was hoping for: a massive pile of gold and gems, twinkling in the darkness of the cave. She let out a loud, cathartic war cry as she swan dived into the treasure hoard. When Celaeno emerged, she hastily unbuckled her belt, pulling her pants and panties down to her knees before she started to indulge in herself. “Ohhh I needed this, I wanted this…!” She moaned, wasting no time in rubbing herself. Two fingers slowly stroked up and down her vulva. She arched her back, hearing the soft jingling of all the golden bits every time she shifted her body. Her fingers got a bit more daring, slipping in and rubbing her inner walls. “Nnngh…” Celaeno gradually got rougher with her fingering, going a little bit faster and harder to push herself further and further. There was a quiet, but still present, nagging feeling in the back of her mind trying to tell her to stop, but her hand kept on stroking and teasing, filling her head with pleasure to overwhelm any remaining reason. “Aaah…D-Damnit Ember…how could you keep all this from me?” she huffed, grabbing onto a handful of bits with her free hand. “All of this…just…hiding away…untouched!” She closed her eyes, pretending just for a moment that all this treasure she was lying on was hers, indulging in the fantasy of being surrounded in so much wealth you could literally swim in it. Her fingers plunged into the depths of her pussy as she got closer and closer. With a frustrated and horny cry, Celaeno shuddered and climaxed, squirting against the shiny bits and gems. Her foot kicked involuntarily, scattering treasures up into the air. Following the sight of a familiar ship, and hearing suspiciously loud moans, Smolder peeked her head into the cave, greeted by the sight of a parrot pirate pleasuring herself atop what she assumed was her latest pilfering. “Uh…” Celaeno snapped her head back up, her body frozen in the same compromising pose as she saw the waves of confusion and concern wash over Smolder’s face. Smolder tilted her head. “...Is this some weird bird thing about marking what’s yours? Cause we could’ve just…given you some of this if you asked.” Another elimination caught Cadence’s attention. She watched as Celaeno’s crystal heart looked a lot more golden as her pleasured face surrounded by bits was immortalized. “Ha! Priceless!” “Hey, I thought I was supposed to make the dad jokes!” Shining chuckled. > Day 18: Lord Over Love > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- “Thanks for…meeting me here, Princess Cadence.” Ember nervously tapped her claws together, looking around just in case she was somehow being followed. So far there was no one else but Cadence by the lake, but she could never be too sure. “My pleasure!” Cadence beamed. “It’s not every day the dragon lord summons a pony over here, after all. But why did you ask to meet here?” “I kinda wanted a place more…private.” Ember’s eyes still shifted around in paranoia, shuffling closer to Cadence. “Sounds serious.” Cadence sat down by the water, patting the ground to prompt Ember to do the same. “So, what’s the reason you called me here?” Ember sat down, slowly dipping her toes in the water. “I…I don’t know, you just seem…good at…getting your feelings out.” “Feelings about love?” Cadence playfully smirked, nudging the dragon in the ribs. Ember clenched her fists and turned her head away to try and hide her blush. “S-Something like that, yeah.” Cadence’s eyes lit up at the prospect of having a problem in her wheelhouse. “Oooh, tell me all about it!” With one last look around the landscape, Ember took a deep breath, trying to find the words. “Just…I dunno, the relationships I’m in are…weird.” “Which ones?” Ember let out a grim chuckle. “All of them, it feels like. Thorax and me are doing great, but Thorax also clearly has a thing for Spike. And I don’t have a problem with that! Spike’s great! He’s really nice and cute and…stuff.” “So are you jealous of what Thorax and Spike have?” Cadence pursed her lip. “I…I don’t know. I don’t want him and Thorax to stop seeing each other or anything,” Ember continued. “Sometimes it feels like it’s him and Thorax are the ones going out, or even me and Spike. Or even all three of us at the same time, and it’s just…weird.” “What about it feels weird to you?” Ember took a deep breath and tried to collect her thoughts. “I…wouldn’t mind being with Spike, especially if Thorax is also with him. Just…I thought Spike was already in love with Starlight.” “Twilight.” “Yeah that’s what I said.” Cadence rocked her head from side to side, trying to figure out the source of Ember’s troubles. “So, do you think the problem is with Twilight?” “Maybe? Spike’s giving me and Thorax a lot of love and it just feels…weird knowing he’s also giving it to Twilight. I don’t feel like I wanna take it from Twilight. At least, I think so, but…I…Gaaaah!” Ember kicked up the water in frustration. Cadence flinched at the dragon’s outburst, but tried to calm her down, holding onto her arm. Ember quickly shut up. Her arm tensed, almost pulling away from Cadence’s hoof as it touched her. “I just see Spike a lot with Thorax and Twilight and Mina and Smolder and a lot of other ponies, and it just feels weird to me. Fuck, am I jealous? This feels like being jealous.” Cadence softly chuckled. “I’ve known Spike for a while, he’s got a lot of love to give.” Ember let out a sigh. “Yeah, I can tell.” “Maybe it wouldn’t hurt to give it a try yourself,” Cadence suggested. “Pfff,” Ember was about to let out a sarcastic laugh until she looked at Cadence. “...Oh you’re serious.” Ember continued to look at Cadence’s genuine little smile and knowing look. “...You know how awful I am with all this ‘feelings’ shit, right?’ “I dunno, you’ve done a pretty good job trying to tell me what you’re feeling,” Cadence winked. “T-That’s different!” Ember tried to wave her hand dismissively. Cadence lightly patted Ember’s lap. “Well, small steps. They don’t have to be big. I’m not asking you to go and make out with Twilight right now.” That certainly left Ember with a powerful mental image. Her holding the pony’s purple cheeks in her hands, pushing apart the curled-up part of her mane to pull her face closer. Ember’s face twisted up in confusion. Cadence continued. “You could just…let Thorax or Spike know how much you appreciate them. Out loud.” “And that’ll stop me from feeling weird?” “Wouldn’t hurt to try.” Resigned, Ember sighed. “Alright, I’ll give it a shot. Thanks for…talking with me, Princess Cadence.” “It’s my pleasure, Dragon Lord Ember.” Ember was already starting to feel better. With a soft smile, she reached for the princess’s hoof. As soon as Ember grasped onto her hoof, Cadence shuddered and immediately recoiled. “Woah, sorry! I thought I was the only one who felt weird doing that!” “No no no, that wasn’t because of you! …I think.” Cadence blushed, looking down at her crotch. “Chastity Shield is just acting up again.” Ember tilted her head to look between the pony’s legs. “I don’t see anything wrong. Looks like a normal pony pussy to me.” “I…It’s just something Shining came up with to help me get through the month,” Cadence explained. “It helps to not feel any of the horny urges, but sometimes I get these tingling flare ups and I don’t know why!” “Huh…” Ember was fascinated by the magic. “So how does it work?” “Shining knows more of the details, but basically I’m not supposed to feel any tingling if I touch myself. To discourage actually going through with it.” “So…” Rather than ask permission, Ember already reached forward to touch Cadence’s vulva. “This isn’t doing anything for you?” Cadence looked down to see Ember teasing her pussy lips. “Nope. Don’t feel a thing.” Ember got a little more adventurous, sticking a finger inside. “Huh, so what’s causing all those tingles then?” “Wish I knew…” Cadence shrugged. Ember made a short little grunt of acknowledgement as she continued. Cadence sat there as Ember continued to curiously finger her. She couldn’t feel most of it going on, but she could still see all of it. “Uh…Ember? You know your acts of love don’t have to start this big, right?” “Oh! Uh, sorry…” Ember retracted her hand as Cadence giggled. “Heehee, it’s fine to start off small. Like this.” To demonstrate, Cadence gave Ember a quick peck on the cheek. “And if you need any help, you can practice on me for a bit.” If one looked at the skies out past Ponyville, they might have been able to see a peculiar formation of clouds, and the pegasus who was setting them up. Rainbow Dash flew back to admire her work, a full-blown obstacle course made entirely out of clouds that filled up the sky. “Phew! Setting this up felt like a workout on its own!” She took a few quick, short breaths on the ground, trying to psych herself up as she readied her wings. A crowd manifested in her mind, cheering for her performance as she started a countdown. She bent her hooves, then rocketed upwards through the air, meeting the set of clouds she set up. With the clock ticking in her head, she sped forward, weaving through cloudy spires, looping through rings, and making hairpin turns while maintaining her blinding speed. Rainbow Dash licked her lips as the adrenaline flowed through her body, the air rushing through her mane and wings, the imaginary crowd getting louder and louder as she made it through each tight ring or dizzying spiral. And now, at a staggering height above the ground, she reached the final part of her routine. Rainbow relaxed her body, retracting her wings back to the sides as she went into freefall. The pegasus took one last glance at the ground before closing her eyes, letting her body spiral as she hit terminal velocity. The whistling as her body plummeted was deafened in comparison to the worried shouts of her imaginary audience. Mentally, Rainbow Dash was calculating how far up she was before she closed her eyes, and how long it would take before she’d hit the ground. Her breathing became tense, counting down the seconds, until her wings sprung open, and she curled her body to course-correct. After a second of gliding, she opened her eyes, looking down to see that she was a foot away from the dirt. With a sigh of relief, Rainbow put her hooves down, skidding along the ground until she came to a stop. “Damn, not bad,” She smirked as she dusted herself off. “Wonder if I can make the cloud rings a little tighter though…” “Woah, that was AWESOME!” “Gyah!” Rainbow Dash jolted and turned around. “Oh. Uh, hey Feather Bangs. You saw all that?” “How could I not have?” The stallion gave Dash a bright smile, his eyes filled with wonder. “I couldn’t take my eyes off of you!” Rainbow chuckled, patting herself on the chest. “Heh, you liked that routine?” “It was amazing! When you started falling, it took my breath away! It was like, the best thing I’ve ever seen!” “Well, that was supposed to be practice for a Wonderbolts routine, but hey, I guess it’s a good sign that someone likes it already.” Feather Bangs pointed skyward. “After seeing all that? Who wouldn’t be blown away? You’re probably the bravest of all the Wonderbolts!” “You know, Feather Bangs? I thought you’d just be all sleazy and gross,” Dash cringed as a certain pegasus came to mind. “But you’re actually pretty cool.” The stallion giggled and blushed. “Ehehe, not as cool as you, though.” “Oh, pssh…I…yeah.” Dash scoffed, only briefly entertaining the idea of deflecting that compliment back. “Well, I gotta keep practicing,” she said, hovering off the ground. “Feel free to watch and tell me how awesome I am, though.” “Sure thing!” Feather Bangs saluted as Dash rose back up into the air. “Wow, those tips from your mom really did work!” “...Wait, what did my mom do?” > Day 19: Pawned Off > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- While idly killing time in her castle, Princess Twilight took a glimpse out a window, left in awe of the autumn beauty, the chilly breeze that floated idly through the skies, and the leaves being blown through the air by a passing pegasus. It gave her an itch to go outside and enjoy the day. Maybe she could help Applejack with her harvest, bake some warm goods with Pinkie Pie, or help model for Rarity’s future lineups. It sure sounded a lot more engaging than just magical tinkering with plans she wouldn’t be able to use yet. As she was ready to trot outside, the door seemed to preemptively open up for her, courtesy of a familiar-looking unicorn. “Tempest? What are you doing here?” “Nothing much, just thought I’d drop by and say hello,” She said, letting herself inside. “That and I wanted to check in and see if Chrysalis was up to anything. Y-You know, just in case.” “Oh! Hmm…” Twilight rubbed her chin. “Well, Sandbar said that he saw her at the park…” Twilight saw Tempest already getting into a ready stance. “...but she seems to have fled rather quickly. He said that she hadn’t caused him any trouble, though he did seem a bit shaken up when he told me.” Tempest stood back up. “That so, huh?” she huffed. “Do you need me to do a follow-up?” “I don’t think so. I mean, not unless you want to talk to her again,” Twilight chuckled. Twilight noticed that her guest was on edge. She was constantly looking around, and her breathing sounded a bit forced. Even by Tempest’s standards, her scowl felt like there was more stress in it than usual. “Are you alright, Tempest? Was there another reason you came here, or…?” “Fine! I’m fine!” Tempest blurted. “S-Sorry. Just a little…needy, I guess. Trying to push past the temptation and find a distraction, but…it hasn’t been easy.” “Well! I didn’t realize those hardened edges of yours could be softened up!” Twilight joked. Tempest laughed dryly. “Ha ha, princess. Do you have any way to help, or should I ask somepony who’s actually still in?” “Alright, alright. My best advice would be to lighten up a bit,” Twilight suggested. “You’ll find it a lot easier to get your mind off the whole thing if you’re off enjoying yourself. I’m actually going to go see one of my friends right now, if you wanna join me.” Tempest hesitantly shook her head. “I…think I’ll pass. I’ll just find my own fun elsewhere.” “Suit yourself. Good luck, Tempest!” Twilight and Tempest walked out of the open door, with Twilight flying off into Ponyville, leaving Tempest standing in front of the castle, still contemplating Twilight’s advice. “Enjoy myself, how am I supposed to do that when I’m just so pent up?” Her grumbling was interrupted when she felt something soft stroke against her flank. A mixture of a yelp and a squeak left her lips as she frantically turned to see who or what touched her. “Oh gosh! Sorry about that!” A pink pegasus apologized. “I’ve been trying to get your attention for a while, but you just weren’t responding!” “Ah…Sorry, Cozy.” Tempest blushed and rubbed her front hoof. “What did you need?” “Well, you were just standing there, sweating, talking to yourself, and looking really troubled,” Cozy pointed out. “I just wanted to see if there was anything I could do to help!” Tempest hesitantly looked from side to side. “Ah, that. Look, I’m fine, just…feeling a bit worked up, is all.” Cozy’s eyes quickly lit up. “Ooh, stress relief, huh? I got a special trick that can help you!” Tempest quickly waved her off. “Thanks, but I think I’m good-” Cozy already wrapped a hoof around her shoulder, pulling her along. “Aw, c’mon, it won’t take long at all!” Tempest was tugged around the crystal castle to the back, better hidden away from the public eye. “Alright, fine, what’s this special trick of yours?” she sighed, ceding to Cozy’s plan. “It’s real easy. Just stand still and close your eyes…” Cozy instructed. Tempest rolled her eyes before shutting them tight. “What now?” “Relax your body, take deeeeep breaths, and pretty soon you’ll find yourself a lot happier…” “Ugh…” Tempest grumbled under her breath, convinced that Cozy Glow was trying out some meditation crap like Tree Hugger. Her breathing slowed as her mind wandered to whatever she planned to do after blowing Cozy off. “Yes…just like that,” Cozy nodded, walking around Tempest. “Just keep focusing on your breathing…” Tempest’s ears twitched, trying to follow where Cozy was walking while still keeping her eyes shut. “Now, pick something in your head and focus on it, ignoring all other distractions…” With a low growl in her throat, Tempest tried to think of something to think about. Her head slightly swayed side to side. She eventually decided to focus on Kerfuffle. As exhausting as her enthusiasm was, the way the pegasus saw Tempest’s inner beauty was…comforting. Tempest felt an itching sensation moving across her back, but pushed through and continued her focus. The little clique that she made with Kerfuffle and Celaeno was a bit corny, but it did put a smile on Tempest’s face as she felt softer and lighter. That little smile only grew as a quiet giggle left her lips. That soft and light feeling that Tempest was feeling was more than just a bubbly feeling, it was something real tracing along her stomach. Hey eyes quickly opened as she looked down, spying some fluffy pink feathers attached to a wing, taking a long, slow stroke across her belly. “W-Whahat the?” “Ah ah ah!” Cozy Glow chided, using her other wing to wag at her. “You’re supposed to ignore all distractions!” Tempest tried to shuffle away from Cozy’s wings, but they always managed to brush against her side. “Ack! H-How is this supposed to hehehelp?” Cozy giggled alongside Tempest as her wings reached forward. “It’s to help you relax! You’ll feel a lot better after a good laugh!” “W-Well quit it!” Tempest protested, “I-I’m not even ticklish…!” “Oh, that’s such a poor lie,” Cozy cooed, stroking underneath Tempest’s chin with her wing. “If you weren’t ticklish, you wouldn’t be blushing and squirming so much when I do this!” Tempest was busy looking at Cozy’s face, she didn’t notice her wing sneaking around to brush against her side. “Eeeheehee!” “Not ticklish, huh?” Cozy chuckled. “O-Okay! Okay! I-I’m tihihihicklihihihish!” Tempest giggled, trying to swat Cozy’s wings away, but they simply returned just as quickly to have their soft tips touch her fur. “Oh, I bet it does!” Every time Tempest took a step back, Cozy took two steps forward. Her wings gave her some extra reach to help close the gap to keep teasing the poor unicorn. Tempest felt those sinister wings brushing all over her body, no matter how much she kicked and staggered. The soft feathers relentlessly poked and stroked and brushed over her chest, stomach, neck, and even flank. The soft, restrained giggles evolved into a constant flow of laughter. “S-Stahahahahap! P-Plehehehaaaase!” she begged as she kicked her hoof out. “Aww, but look at how much fun you’re having now! You’re smiling and laughing, I bet all that stress is just washing away!” Cozy teased, having a wing brush against Tempest’s exposed hind hoof. Tempest’s eyes went wide as she let out a shrieking laugh. “AIIIIIEEEHEEHEEHEE! NOHOHOHOHO!” “Oh golly! I didn’t think you were capable of laughing that loud!” Cozy grinned, now trying to brush her wings against Tempest’s hooves whenever they exposed themselves. Tears of mirth dripped down Tempest’s cheeks, her attempts to fight back getting weaker and weaker as all her energy was being spent on heavy laughter. “C-COHOHOZY! S-STAHAHAHAP!” “Aww, you don’t really want me to stop, do you?” the pegasus cooed, running her feather across Tempest’s hoof and up her hind leg. “Not when all this tickling feels so good…” Whether it was due to the intense feathering making it hard to speak through the laughter or her conflicting internal feelings, Tempest hesitated to reply. She was getting lightheaded from laughing with barely a moment to breathe, Cozy was able to leave her helpless by taking advantage of a weakness that was embarrassingly easy to exploit, and yet she couldn’t deny how happy and blissful she felt the entire time. Cozy’s wing gently traced over Tempest’s cutie mark, before she slid her feathers between her legs. “All of this feels so nice, doesn’t it…?” Tempest shivered, her breathing got heavier as she felt Cozy’s feathers gently teasing her crotch. “Aaah…ahahahah…!” “I bet my soft feathers stroking your body feel soooooo good right now…” Cozy whispered. As one of her wings teased Tempest’s pussy, the other one still kept the tickling assault, rubbing against her stomach and sides. A mix of giggles and gasps left Tempest’s lips. Cozy’s soft feathers brought out two different sensations. She wanted to burst out into laughter from the rapid dusting against her underbelly, and she wanted to moan from the slow tracing around her vulva. Cozy leaned to the side, making sure that the tips of her feathers rubbed up against Tempest’s clit. “All this tickling feels sooooo nice, right?” “S-Sohohoho…nihihihice…” Tempest giggled, taken in by all the teasing. Losing herself in the moment, she started wiggling her flank up against Cozy’s wing, even moving her stomach against the other wing so that it’d brush against her faster. Cozy’s mischievous grin grew wider as she felt Tempest start humping her wing. “Coochie coo…You liiiike it, don’t you? You love how much it tickles…” Through a heavy blush, Tempest slowly nodded. “Yehehehehes!” She finally managed to blurt out. Cozy’s wing swiped up and down against Tempest’s pussy, stimulating her with a multitude of soft feathers, all while titillating Tempest with some more tickling to her tummy. “It tickles so good, doesn’t it? Enough to make you wanna cum riiiiight about…now!” “AAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! EEHEEHEEHAHAHAHA! AAAAAH!” Tempest’s mind was a complete haze of blissful feelings. All she could focus on was the feathers that lovingly caressed her body and sent her into a joyful climactic high she didn’t even know she could reach. Cadence looked at the now changed Tempest heart, seeing Tempest with a big blush and smile on her face, tears of joy streaming down her cheeks as a flurry of pink feathers fonded her. “Huh…” She murmured, pursing her lips. “Didn’t expect her to go out that way.” As Tempest fell to the ground, defeated and giggling, Cozy shook the wetness from her wing, giving her sides and flank one last stroke before walking off. “Welp, have fun with your new kink! I’m sure you and your new feathery girlfriends will enjoy that one!” --- As Feather Bangs stood in the hallway of Canterlot’s castle, he felt his heart pounding in his chest. He knew this moment would come, he was even looking forward to it. Being able to make Princess Celestia swoon, who wouldn’t want that opportunity? The big castle doors opened, and Princess Celestia gracefully walked out. She looked down at the stallion and greeted him with a smile so warm, it made him feel like it was summer already. “Ah, Feather Bangs. It’s a pleasure to meet with you.” “The pleasure is all mine, princess,” Feather Bangs bent down to bow. “Oh, none of that,” Celestia shook her head. “You wanted to meet with me as a friend, and not a princess, correct?” Feather Bangs scrambled to stand back up straight. “I…uh…right.” “Well then, follow me,” Celestia motioned to the stallion as she started to walk down the hall. Feather Bangs followed behind, watching Celestia’s magnificent form, and more often than not, her massive flank that only decades of cake eating could sculpt. It only took one look back for Celestia to know what Feather Bangs was doing. She playfully rolled her eyes and continued walking, not wanting to tip him off that she knew. Though it was awfully tempting to purposefully lift up her tail… Still, she resisted the urge and led Feather Bangs into a private room, away from the guards. She walked over to the balcony, finally turning back to the stallion. “So, I assume you have some things to say to me?” Feather Bangs froze as the door closed behind him. “U-Uuuh…?” “Oh, your little escapades have been getting more and more known,” Celestia winked. “Honestly, I was getting a little impatient that you haven’t gotten to me yet. Were you trying to save me for last? Or am I not good enough for you to flirt with?” “Wha? No! That’s not it at all!” Feather Bangs panicked. “Well then? Let me hear them.” Celestia laid down on her belly. “I’m all ears.” “A-Alright, just, um…gimmie a sec.” Feather Bangs fanned himself with his hooves to try and psych himself up. “Alright, you practiced these. Time to wow her,” he muttered to himself before turning back to the princess. “I’ve watched the sun rise many times, Princess Celestia,” He twirled his mane and pointed at her. “...but I hope to be the one that brightens up your day!” The only reaction he got out of Celestia was a simple and short “Cute.” and a slight, almost sarcastic looking smirk. Feather Bangs felt a bead of sweat drip down the back of his neck. “Uh…Is it hot in here, or just you?” “Definitely haven’t heard that one before.” Celestia quickly rolled her eyes, resting her chin on one hoof. “Anything else?” “Um…No wonder you’re the princess of the sun, because that’s one heavenly body you’ve got!” Celestia amusedly bobbed her head around, though even that felt a little sarcastic. “Alright, I admit that might be a new one. But are all your lines going to relate to the sun?” “N-No?” Feather Bangs tried to run through all the things he practiced before entering the castle, but being put on the spot quickly erased most of those short-term memories. “I know you’re a princess, but I wanna treat you like a queen?” “You sure you didn’t use that line on Cadence or Twilight already?” “Ahh…” Feather Bangs started to choke on his words. He felt his entire face fill up with blush as Celestia’s calm, snarky demeanor completely disarmed him.  Celestia brought a hoof forward, tossling up Feather Bangs’s mane. “You know, I think you look more attractive when you’re all flustered,” she cooed. Feather Bangs sputtered and stammered, feeling his face get even hotter with Celestia’s gentle touch. “I-Wha-Huh?” “I think all those mares would flock to you more if you always looked as cute as you do now…” Celestia said, lifting Feather Bangs up by the chin. “Y-You think I’m…c-cute?” The stallion’s hooves were trembling, like they were about to collapse underneath him. His heartbeat was pounding in his burning ears. “Well, Feather. There is something about you that just tickles me,” Celestia giggled as she watched the poor stallion in front of her get overwhelmingly flustered. > Day 20: Celestial Shyning > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- “...I don’t think I’ve seen a stallion get that flustered since Sandbar!” Celestia giggled. “It was actually kind of adorable.” “Wow, sounds like you’re getting swarmed by mares and stallions of all kinds.” Fluttershy said with a cheeky smile. Fluttershy and Celestia sitting outside on one of the Crystal Castle’s balconies, taking in the view and laughing about their month so far. “Well, it is one of the few perks of the challenge.” Celestia leaned in closer towards Fluttershy, giving her a playful nudge. “Though I’m surprised you aren’t having the same problem.” Fluttershy let out a bashful giggle. “I used to…” Her smile faded with a heavy sigh. “But those plans got eaten up.” “Ah, right. I heard about that,” Celestia solemnly nodded. “Well, I don’t exactly have his knack for impossibilities, but I can try my best to fulfill some of those fantasies you had planned. Even if it’s with different company.” Fluttershy looked up at Celestia, her wings getting a flitter of excitement and hesitation. “Oh, are you sure there’s going to be room for me?” “Only if you don’t mind Sandbar gushing about how big I am…or the taste of chocolate cake,” the princess winked. “Heeheehee, I wouldn’t mind, but Rainbow Dash might…” Fluttershy giggled. As the two laughed and shared their moment, they were joined by their host walking in. “Sorry about the wait, ladies!” Shining Armor said. “Just had to…finish a few things first.” Celestia and Fluttershy turned their heads towards the stallion getting their attention, then their attention quickly trailed downwards to his attention. “Are you sure? You don’t look finished to me,” Celestia snickered. “Yeah yeah, I know!” Shining grumbled, stiffly walking towards them. “The damn shield is acting up again!” “Is it…supposed to make you throb like that?” A transfixed Fluttershy asked with hungry eyes. Shining shot Fluttershy an exasperated look. “It’s supposed to make things easier, but I’ve been going crazy trying to make sense of all these random tingles! Some days it’s working as intended, but then it suddenly feels like I’m being sucked off and I can never figure out why!” Celestia lowered her head to try and identify a problem while simultaneously getting a better look at the goods. “Hmm, well, as the creator of the spell, you’re the one who has the most knowledge on how it works, but I can try my best to identify any problems I can spot.” “Ohhh, you’d be a lifesaver, princess!” Shining sighed in relief, but backed his hind legs away from how close she was getting. “I think the worst of it is over. What were you two talking about before I interrupted?” “Well, Princess Celestia was just telling me about her meeting with Feather Bangs yesterday!” Fluttershy explained. “Oh yeah? Lemmie guess…” Shining cleared his throat, tossing his mane in a flippant manner before closing his eyes halfway. “I know you’re a princess, but I wanna treat you like a queen.” Celestia burst into giggles. “That’s exactly the line he used!” “Yeah, he used that one on Twily already,” Shining nodded. “That pony’s really getting around, huh?” “But I think it’s admirable at least,” Celestia shrugged. “Aside from Cadence and Chrysalis, I haven’t seen someone participating in No Clop that’s been so dedicated to love.” “No kidding. I think he’s hit on every female in the competition.” Fluttershy briefly thought back through everything that happened to her in the month so far. “Really? I don’t think he’s met up with me yet.” “Well, get ready then, I’m sure once you get back to Ponyville he’s gonna tell you how he wants to make your heart flutter or whatever,” Shining snickered. “Bonus points if he flips his mane before he actually says it.” “Oh gosh…” Fluttershy put her hoof to her chest, unsure whether to feel embarrassed or appalled. “I think I’m starting to understand why Cadence invited him to participate this year,” Celestia said. Shining nodded with just a twinge of jealousy in his eyes. “Yep, think I realized that about a week ago.” Fluttershy scrunched her muzzle while recalling the current roster of participants. “But…why would she invite Chrysalis, then?” Both mares turned their heads towards Shining, who thought for a few seconds before shrugging in resignation. “I’m…sure she’s got a plan in mind, but I’m kinda terrified to find out what exactly it is.” “Well, you and Princess Cadence have done a great job hosting this event so far!” Fluttershy said. “I really liked all those little crystal hearts with all our faces in them!” “Indeed. I also appreciate how you two have handled the eliminations this year, making them less…” Celestia held on that last word, hissing as she quickly tried to describe things as delicately as possible. “...Intrusive.” “Y-Yeah, it’s nice just finding out when it happens on your own,” Fluttershy chimed in. “...And not seeing it unfold when you’re in the middle of eating.” “Or sleeping,” Celestia said with a hint of a smirk. “Yeah…At least we know Cadence doesn’t have recordings of all the eliminations like Twilight would,” Fluttershy shrugged with a reassured smile. Shining’s sharp inhale through his teeth quickly shot down Fluttershy’s confidence. “...Really?” Celestia also turned towards Shining with a look of bewilderment. “Yeah, did Twilight secretly help out this year?” “Hey, it’s only still images!” Shining said, as if his defense made anything that much better. “It’s not like Cady can put a crystal heart on a projector to make it easier to get off on. I can show you two what it looks like if you want.” A little bit of reassurance washed over the two, and a bit of excited curiosity started to take over. “Well, since you’re offering…” “I…kinda wanna see, too…” “Yeah, speaking of, Tempest got eliminated yesterday,” Shining said matter-of-factly. “It was…surprising, to say the least.” An eager spark lit up Celestia’s eyes. “Ooh, really? What happened? Risky edging? Sabotage?” “You’d have to ask her yourself what happened, though if it’s anything close to how I’m picturing it, she’d rather die than admit anything. But I think I could put together some of the details from what I saw in the crystal.” Shining Armor gave a quick glance to Fluttershy before motioning Celestia to lower her head. As Shining Armor whispered his theory in Celestia’s ear, Fluttershy watched the princess’s face go from surprised to amazed to curious to giddy all in the span of a few seconds. Holding back some giggles, Celestia pointed her hoof towards Fluttershy. “Oh, that’s amazing! Though I thought if anyone were to go out that way, it’d be her.” “...Huh?” Shining walked over and whispered all the little details he knew in Fluttershy’s ear. Pomf! “...Buh.” “Envious, Fluttershy?” Celestia teased. “A fantasy of yours perhaps?” Fluttershy’s mouth opened, but only a timid squeak came out. The poor pegasi’s face was quickly turning redder by the second. “Perhaps you’d like something…” Celestia spread out her large, fluffy wings to show off and entice. “...more?” Before Fluttershy fainted on the spot, Shining intervened, trying to push Celestia’s wings back down to her sides. “C’mon Tia, let’s not put Shy out of commission just yet, alright?” “Fine, fine,” Celestia sighed as she folded her wings. “Let’s go see how silly Twilight’s o-face looked this year.” As Shining started to walk back inside, Celestia quickly turned back towards Fluttershy before the stallion took notice. “So? What do you say, Fluttershy?” Celestia said, waggling her eyebrows. “You, me, Shining Armor, and a dungeon’s worth of endless possibilities…” “It…sounds wonderful, Princess Celestia,” Fluttershy nervously giggled. “But that’s a dream for another day.” Sandbar let out a brisk shiver as the chilled autumn air hit his fur. He let out a sharp exhale as he started trotting in place, trying to warm himself up before setting off into town square. As he walked down the bustling roads, he noticed a familiar friend looking rather worried. The stallion kept turning his head, as if constantly on the lookout. “Yo! You alright, Feather Bangs?” Feather Bangs’s ears perked up, turning to where Sandbar was calling him. “Oh hey!” He immediately started trotting towards the other stallion. “What’s up, dude?” “Could ask you the same thing. You seemed lost back there, were ya looking for something? Maybe someone?” Sandbar chuckled. “Hah, ya caught me,” Feather Bangs shrugged, casually laughing off the ribbing. “I was trying to find Fluttershy, actually. I know the mare keeps to herself, but I still wanted to chat with her. Do you know where she is, by any chance?” “Ah, you’re kinda out of luck there. Professor Fluttershy’s at the Crystal Empire right now. Should be back in Ponyville in a couple of days.” “Really? Dang.” Feather Bangs dejectedly kicked the dirt path in front of him. “She was the last one I wanted to talk with, too.” Sandbar’s eyebrows raised. “Last one, huh? You really went and talked with every other eligible female in the past…three weeks?” “Mmhm!” Feather Bangs nodded, puffing out his chest and running a hoof through his mane. “Wasn’t easy, but I’m almost done!” “So…after you talk to Fluttershy, what then?” “Then comes the hard part, Sandbar.” Feather Bangs wrapped his hoof around Sandbar. “Choosing who I wanna be with.” Sandbar couldn’t help but sputter out a laugh. “You’re the only one I know who’s using No Clop to intentionally find love.” “Well it’s not like it’s a crazy idea, right? After all the stories I’ve heard, I might as well take a shot at it, you know?” “Yeah, I guess…” Sandbar sighed, smirking and shaking his head. “Still, that’s a lot of girls, have you at least narrowed down the list?” Feather Bangs tapped his chin. “I had to leave out all the ones that are already taken. I don’t wanna get in between what you and Yona got going on, for example.” Sandbar chuckled. “Appreciate it. Though I’m pretty sure some couples wouldn’t mind having a third join them.” “It’s…huh…” Feather Bangs’s expression dropped. “Even with some of the eliminations, it’s still not an easy pick. I wanna say…Silverstream, Twilight, or Harshwhinny? But even then, I still have my doubts.” Immediately, Sandbar started to entertain the thought of Silverstream and Feather Bangs together. He wasn’t against the idea, but it was pretty funny to picture the two on a candlelit dinner. His shoulders started to bounce as he tried to stifle his laughter. “Hey, c’mon, it could happen!” Feather Bangs grumbled. “Sorry! Sorry!” Sandbar giggled. “Just…I was imagining Silverstream slow dancing with you. Any other candidates? Who do you think you made the best first impression with?” “Oh, that’s easy! Princess Celestia, no question.” Sandbar smiled warmly. “She’s pretty great, isn’t she?” Feather Bangs let out a longing sigh. “Yeah…” “I mean, she’s majestic, beautiful, kind…” “Wise, playful, energetic…” “Big…” Feather Bangs did a double-take. “Uh, r-right…” “Well if you’re so blown away by her, why don’t you give her a shot?” “Oh, like she’d ever be in a relationship with me!” Feather Bangs sputtered. “I mean, she’s the ruler of Equestria, ya know? Surely her standards are really REALLY high!” His hooves started to tremble and waver underneath him. “I mean…I-I could never!” Sandbar gave Feather Bangs a light punch in the shoulder. “Hey, you never know. I managed to score with her in the orgy a couple years ago and I’m still riding that high! You bet your flank I’m gonna do it again this year if we both make it!” “I…” Feather Bangs’s voice cracked as he fidgeted around. “I guess it’s worth a shot.” “There ya go!” Sandbar clapped. “So, there’s your long term plans, what are you gonna do at the orgy?” “...Uh…” > Day 21: Check and Mate > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Everfree Forest was home to a variety of creatures, both exotic and dangerous, and also Chrysalis, who was still out cold at two in the afternoon. “Hrrgh…Shi…ning…” she snorted in her slumber, tossing and turning underneath her sheets, pushing more pillows off her mattress. Her sleepy ramblings were cut short as she heard a crashing sound from somewhere else in her home. Chrysalis’s eyes shot open as she immediately went into kill mode. She threw off her blanket and sprinted to her kitchen, ready to attack the intruder, only for all her fury to turn into annoyance. “You really gotta stock up on cookies, Chryssie,” Cozy noted, rummaging through the changeling’s pantry. “Winter’s a-coming, and you clearly need that long beauty sleep when you hibernate!” “...Do you have any last words before I kill you?” “Hey, I’ve done nothing wrong!” Cozy asserted, clutching onto her chest with her hooves. Chrysalis wordlessly gestured to the pegasus ransacking her food. “...To you!” Cozy looked off to the side, her words getting less confident with each self-correction. “…This month! …Intentionally! …Yet…” “Oh really?” Chrysalis scoffed, stomping towards Cozy. “And I suppose you didn’t try and send some wannabe stud my way?” “Oh come on, why do you think I had anything to do with that?” “I figure anything sent my way to annoy me is your doing by default,” Chrysalis hissed. “...Fair.” As Chrysalis stared daggers at her, Cozy raised up her hoof. “Hey, he’s been hitting on all the girls this month. That’s got nothing to do with me!” “Then explain how he got to my home!” “I dunno, he probably thought you were Zecora or some shit,” Cozy shrugged. “You act like it’s hard to even get here.” “There’s not many that are brave or stupid enough to come here,” Chrysalis scoffed. “Except for you, unfortunately.” “Well maybe Feather Bangs just happens to be brave and/or stupid. That ever occur to you?” “Hmmph. I suppose I don’t have any proof that you sent him,” the changeling grumbled. “But thanks to that encounter, I’ve had another visitor sent to me.” “Aww, I miss the days when I was your favorite houseguest!” Cozy cooed. With a rage-suppressing eye-twitch, Chrysalis continued. “It seems that after loverboy’s little scare, Twilight wanted to make sure I was behaving.” “Oh yeah? Does that mean she wanted to put a leash on you?” “As if she could,” Chrysalis snarled. “Instead she sent Tempest over in what I assume was an attempt at intimidation.” Cozy’s eyes lit up with recognition. “Oooh, Tempest, huh? How’d that go? Were the sparks flying?” Chrysalis gave a self-satisfied smirk. “Well, I can at least see why Twilight thought she’d intimidate me. There’s a fire in her eyes that I haven’t seen in many ponies. And she’s also somepony who can actually back up all that tough talk. I look forward to breaking her later…” “Ah, I already beat ya to it,” Cozy casually threw out, already back to digging through Chrysalis’s food, scavenging through her fridge. “What.” “Yeah, she’s out,” Cozy said, grabbing a half-eaten pint of ice cream. “Did it a couple days ago.” Chrysalis let out a short laugh of disbelief. “You eliminated Tempest? You managed to overpower her?” Cozy scoffed as she grabbed a spoon with her wing. “Pssh, what, like it was hard?” “Unbe-fucking-lievable…” Chrysalis sputtered under her breath. “How did you even…?” “Well, she’s got a tickling kink now,” Cozy said between mouthfuls of ice cream. “So there’s that.” Chrysalis rubbed her temples to ease her headache. “One of the few in this competition I would’ve actually enjoyed having sex with and of course you had to ruin it.” “How was I supposed to know you had the hots for Tempest?” said an indignant Cozy Glow. “Besides, Feather Bangs was clearly interested in you, why don’t you suck him off or whatever?” “If he’s been gallivanting around for every mare, then clearly his romance is surface-level at best. That’s hardly filling or satisfying!” “So’s half the crap in your fridge,” Cozy snickered. With a glare, Chrysalis used her magic to yank the ice cream out of Cozy’s hooves. “Come on, Tempest couldn’t have been your only choice left!” Cozy said, trying to reach for the tub of ice cream. “You gotta keep your options open! You act like there aren’t others here that wouldn’t wanna have sex with you!” At the risk of going down a rabbit hole, Chrysalis sighed. “Fine, who do you suggest?” Cozy Glow landed on Chrysalis’s back, drooping herself over her body. “Well, I’m pretty sure the biggest reason Cadence invited you is so you could have some weird threesome with her and Shining Armor.” Chrysalis’s face softened. “Perhaps. Though it was more fun sucking the love out of him the old-fashioned way.” Cozy continued. “There’s Celestia…Ooh, and Thorax-” “And why, pray tell, would I want to have anything to do with Thorax?” “Please, like you don’t have wet dreams about domming him and showing him who the superior changeling is,” Cozy rolled her eyes. Chrysalis’s face fidgeted before slowly nodding in concession. “...Anyone else?” “Lessie, who else…oh! Sandbar and Gallus!” Chrysalis raised an eyebrow. “...You’re serious?” “Sandbar’s into big chicks, and Gallus is into being stepped on. You can easily do both!” Cozy grinned. “At the same time too, probably!” Chrysalis reluctantly bobbed her head, remembering her previous encounter with the earth pony. “Hmmph, I suppose those aren’t the worst ideas…” “See? And if all that doesn’t work out, you still got me!” Cozy crossed her hooves and smirked before Chrysalis shoved her off her back. “If only the pool wasn’t so shallow…” Chrysalis griped. “Look, if you have a problem with that, take it up with Cadence or something!” “Pssh, there’s no way!” Spike laughed in disbelief, leaning in closer to listen intently to Smolder’s story. “I wouldn’t have believed it if I didn’t see it for myself,” Smolder shrugged.. “Just…on the pile?” “Didn’t even bother taking her clothes off, just pants down to the ankles and that’s it,” she smirked. Spike chuckled in disbelief. “How’d the cleanup go on that?” “Well, considering it was my treasure pile, you can direct that question to me.” Spike quickly turned his head. “Oh, hey Ember! All done chatting with Twilight?” “Yep! Got all that squared away.” She glanced over at Smolder. “I’m guessing she was telling you about how she walked in on Celaeno.” “Yyyep.” “I mean, I gotta hand it to her,” Ember shrugged. “She went all the way out to the Dragonlands for that.” “Saw her ship anchored nearby,” Smolder explained “It was a pretty long walk from there to the cave, but given how messily she was going at it? I think she sprinted all the way to the caves.” “Well, she went out doing what she loved. I…guess…?” Spike snorted out some smoke. “Still, would’ve been nice to see her at the orgy.” “Yeahhh, I think Silverstream wanted to see what pirate sex would be like,” Smolder nodded. “Ohhh, don’t make me think of-” Spike immediately started cracking up, snickering as he pounded the floor with his fist. Smolder gave Spike a knowing grin. “You thought of her doing a pirate voice while scissoring, didn’t you?” “It’s so dumb…!” Spike choked out. “Did you have any plans with Celaeno, Spike?” Ember asked. Spike cleared his throat and composed himself. “Not officially. Just thought it’d be nice to try something out with her, ya know? Not a lot of participants have fancy fingerwork, if you get what I’m saying.” Ember and Smolder looked at their claws, slowly curling and uncurling each of them. “I guess you have a point,” Ember nodded.  “Huh, don’t really think about it too much when it’s just Sandbar and Yona who can’t do this,” Smolder noted, using her thumb to hold her ring finger down while sticking the rest up. “Well, there’s still Gallus, Thorax, Chrysalis, and you guys, I guess,” Spike shrugged. Ember felt her heart accelerate for a second. She put her hands on her hips. “What, so we’re just your last resort?” she huffed, her voice having hints of both playfulness and jealousy. “What?” Spike flinched, his voice cracking. “Aw c’mon, you know I didn’t mean it like that! I’m just kidding!” “Yeah, you better be!” Ember smirked. Smolder jabbed Spike’s ribs with her elbow. “I dunno, Spike. Ya better call dibs on her fast, or else Thorax might steal her for the whole night.” Spike raised up his hands in mock-surrender. “Fine, fine. If you still got time in your schedule, Ember…” “And I think I do…” Spike did a half-joking bow to her. “Gotta do what I can to make the Dragon Lord happy, right?” Ember paused. Cadence’s words from their talk started echoing in the dragon’s mind. Her face started to fill up with blush as she mashed her fingers together. Spike raised an eyebrow as he watched Ember seemingly get flustered over what he thought was a playful joke. “Uh…Ember?” Ember clenched her fists, feeling beyond uncomfortable, but still trying to force words out. “Spike…you…do make me happy…” Smolder turned her head so fast she nearly got whiplash. “Are…are you alright, Ember?” Ember felt like her whole body was burning up. Her heart was pounding in her chest, she felt like she was about to choke. She had the perfect opportunity to get everything out, and she needed to take it. “I’m…fine!” Ember said through gritted teeth. “Just…! You mean a lot to me. Both of you!” She panted and gasped. It felt like a weight was lifted off of her, but her chest still felt the pressure. Still confused overall, Spike and Smolder slowly nodded and awkwardly smiled. “Um…thanks?” Smolder said, scratching the back of her head with discomfort. “Rrrgh! No, I mean, I’m glad we’re…ffffriends!” Ember craned her neck and growled. “I don’t know where I’d BE without you two!” Spike leaned back and quietly started shuffling away. “I kinda figured…?” “But I need you to know that!” As Ember snarled, she felt more confused, more frustrated, more worked up. Her flustered mind tried to find a way to get her feelings across. Nothing she thought to say felt like enough. It’d be so much easier to just…! Ember grabbed Spike by the shoulder and pulled him in, shutting her eyes and locking lips. Spike yelped in surprise, but his tense body started to relax, even if something else started to stiffen up. Ember broke the kiss, sweating and panting as she stared into Spike’s eyes. “Got the message?” “Yuh-huh.” “Good.” Ember nodded, before turning to Smolder with the same hungry eyes. Smolder’s eyes shrunk to pinpricks as Ember lunged at her, giving the other dragon a long, passionate kiss. Smolder’s heart was pounding, her body squirmed as Ember held her tight with a surprisingly warm and tender hug. Her muffled surprised cries slowly turned into soft squeaks. Ember started to plant kisses down Smolder’s body, going down her chest and her stomach, until she made contact with a different pair of lips. “Ooookay I guess this is happening now!” Smolder yelped as Ember lay on the floor, pulling Smolder over to sit on her face. “Wooaaaaah…!” With heavy breath, Ember pointed at Spike, gesturing to her crotch. “Come on…! I still have more to give!” Given sufficient reason and being sufficiently hard, Spike approached Ember, being put in the familiar position of standing right in front of a needy dragon lord. “Fuck it” being his thoughts of submission and his current goal. Smolder teetered as she tried to balance herself on Ember’s maw, feeling her tongue poking and teasing her slit. “Uh…E-Ember? Are you sure about-OHHH YOU’RE SURE!” she cried out as she felt the tongue probe deeper. With a sharp exhale, Spike slowly slid himself into Ember’s slit, shuddering as he felt how wet she was. Ember gripped onto Smolder’s thighs, pulling the orange dragon down towards herself as her tongue made slow drags against Smolder’s inner walls. Smolder put her hands on her face, feeling the sweat drip down her forehead as Ember’s tongue worked her over. She clenched her teeth, leaning her head back as her hands balled up into fists. Spike was already intimately familiar with Ember’s body already. He comfortably straddled her, thrusting in and out at a speed he knew the dragon lord liked. “Ah! Fuck! Nngh!” Smolder tried to hold back her moans of pleasure, causing them to come out as quiet curses whenever she felt Ember’s forked tongue go over a particularly sensitive spot. As Spike grabbed onto Ember’s thighs, he looked over at the other dragon Ember was pleasuring. “C’mon, Smolder, don’t leave me out of this.” “Wh…huh?” “Well, Ember clearly wants to display her love…why don’t we join her?” Smolder looked deep into Spike’s eyes. Even as he was pounding deep into Ember’s pussy, she could tell he was being serious. She tentatively leaned forward, putting her hands on Spike’s shoulders, and tilted her head for the kiss. Spike met her halfway, putting a hand behind Smolder’s head to gently caress her as their lips met. Ember felt Spike thrusting his entire length into her, causing her to subconsciously pay it forward to Smolder, extending her tongue as far as it could go. Smolder felt an electric burst of pleasure shoot up her back. She tried to sync up with Spike’s rhythmic thrusting so that the kiss could continue uninterrupted, but the feeling of Ember’s forked tongue reaching far into her made the dragon moan into Spike’s mouth. As Spike got into his groove, Ember’s legs wrapped around his waist. He tried to join Ember in slipping his tongue into Smolder, going past her lips and pushing against her tongue. Ember moaned heavily into Smolder’s crotch as Spike pounded her pussy. Her toes gradually curled with each progressive thrust and her hands gripped onto Smolder’s thighs for dear life. Sweat dripped down the scales of the interlinked trio as they humped, licked, kissed and rubbed each other. Their eyes shut tight as their passion heated up, swaying in sync with muffled moans getting louder and louder. Cadence sprung to attention as for the first time, three crystal hearts went off at once. Each of the dragon’s hearts revealed a different piece of the full picture, though given how the purple, orange, and blue all mixed in with each other’s part, it wasn’t hard to tell what went down. The princess let out a low whistle. “That’s…not quite what I thought would happen when I gave her that advice…” > Day 22: Like Them Apples > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The second that Babs stepped off the train station and her hooves touched the dirt, they were immediately lifted up by a sudden force. “Hey-hey, there’s my favorite Manehattan cousin!” Braeburn said, starting to spin her around. “C’mere, you!” “Ack! Braeburn! Not in fronta everyone!” Babs protested, despite the obvious smile on her face. Braeburn chuckled and put her back down. “Alright, alright. It’s great to see ya, cuz!” “Likewise! I haven’t been to Appleloosa in foreva!” “Sure feels like it!” Braeburn patted her on the back. “C’mon, let’s get goin’!” As they walked through the streets of the town to Braeburn’s house, they were greeted by another familiar face running up to them. “Hey, Strongheart! There ya are!” “Hi, Braeburn!” Little Stongheart turned her head. “Oh, you must be Babs! It’s so nice to finally meet you.” “Likewise!” Babs took a moment to look over Little Strongheart, examining her in an almost judgemental way. “Heh, gotta say, cuz, nevah expected you to get with a buffalo,” Babs playfully ribbed. “Always thought you’d end up with…” “With who?” Strongheart insisted. “...Nuttin, nevamind.” Braeburn rolled his eyes. “Come on, Babs, Little Strongheart really wanted to meet ya.” “Yeah?” Babs scoffed. “Why’s that?” “Braeburn’s been saying a lot of good things about you,” Strongheart explained. “He was just so excited to be invited to another No Clop November, but he was even more excited seeing that you were there, too!” “Doesn’t help anyone’s case when this is about getting to an orgy…” Babs mouthed to herself before actually speaking to Braeburn. “Lotta good things, huh?” “And Strongheart here wanted to take the time to make some new friends outside of Appleloosa, and Ah’ told her that you’d be a great friend for her!” “Psssh, me? I’m nuttin special,” Babs blushed. “Braeburn said you were tough and cool and smart…” With a casual blow to her bangs, Babs started nodding along. “Well, if Braeburn’s sayin’ it…” Strongheart giggled. “I don’t think I’ve met many city ponies before. Are they all as cool as you?” “Ha! They only wish!” Babs bragged, rubbing her chest. “You said you were tryna make friends with the other participants? Who else have ya met?” Little Strongheart rubbed her chin. “Well, when I went to Ponyville, I met Gallus and Tempest. They seemed pretty nice, even if they seemed a little rough around the edges.” Remembering Cozy’s tale of Tempest’s ticklish defeat, Babs cracked a smirk. “Heh, I heard Tempest has a soft spot or two if ya know where ta poke around.” “Who else…Oh! There was also this really cute yak named Yona! She was one of the first ones I met. I think we really hit it off.” A twinge of guilt hit Babs’s heart. “...Yeah?” Little Strongheart nodded, her smile fading a bit. “Yeah. We came up with a really fun plan for her and her stallion Sandbar and me and Braeburn.” Babs felt her hooves twitch underneath her. “Oh ya mean like a couple swap thing?” “Exactly! But I heard that she got eliminated pretty early on.” “Wow, really? Dat…sucks…!” Babs said, flipping her mane to intentionally cover up an eye. “Yeah, real crazy how fast she went out, huh cuz?” Braeburn said. Even with her hair obscuring her vision, Babs could tell Braeburn was giving her the side eye. “Yeah, crazy.” Strongheart gave a resigned shrug. “I guess that’s all part of the game, but I still wish we could’ve done something together!” “Well, look on da bright side, you’re still in it, and there’s plenty of participants left!” Babs said, trying to shift the subject away from Yona. “Still got your options!” “That’s true…” the buffalo nodded. “Actually, there was this other stallion that talked to me…Feather Bangs, I think it was?” “Oh jeez…” Babs immediately started groaning and rolling her eyes. “You were talking to other stallions without me?” Braeburn said in mock-jealousy. Little Strongheart was quick to go on the defense. “Hey, he started talking to me first! And I mean…I’ve never tried two stallions at once...” Babs quickly waved her hoof. “Wait, hold on, lemme guess. He was trying some dumbass pickup lines on you?” Strongheart’s face scrunched up. “Well, I wouldn’t phrase it like that…” Babs clicked her tongue as she shook her head. “Dude’s really been getting around, huh? Unbelievable…” “I dunno, he seemed really sweet in a way. Maybe a little lonely… I think he just wanted companionship over a fuckbuddy.” “A poor soul looking for love, huh?” Braeburn chuckled. “Mighty strange place to look for it, but Ah’ guess Princess Cadence hostin’ the whole thing gave him some inspiration.” Little Strongheart wrapped her hooves around Braeburn. “Not everyone can be as lucky as us, dear.” She looked over to Babs. “What about you, Babs? Have you found someone special yet?” Babs quickly fired off a series of flustered sputterings. “What? Course not! What kinda question-You my mom or somethin’?” The couple exchanged knowing glances. “So, nobody’s catchin’ your eye this year, cuz?” Braeburn smirked. “Nnnope! Just playing to get laid an’ dat’s it!” “Well if that’s the case, Feather Bangs seems very single…” Little Strongheart said in a sing-song tone. Babs immediately started to gag. “Ugh! Fuck no! He’s nowhere near my type!” With a cocky smirk, Little Strongheart tilted her head. “So what is your type, Babs? Are they still in the game?” “Oh for the love of…” An exasperated Babs wheezed under her breath. “None of your business!” “Ya don’t have even the tiiiiniest crush on anyone at all?” Braeburn egged on. “Fuck no!” Babs scoffed. “Besides, even if I did, I doubt she likes me back that way-aw fuck.” A knock on the door took Fluttershy’s attention away from her book. She had a feeling she already knew who was at her door, and was expecting this day for some time. She walked to the door, mentally preparing herself for the worst. “Heyyy there, Fluttershy!” Fluttershy nodded to herself as her suspicions were confirmed. “Oh, Feather Bangs! Is there…something I can do for you?” Feather Bangs chuckled before he flipped his mane. “Haha, well, all I want is to make your heart flutter.” Fluttershy smiled, but more out of disbelief that Shining Armor actually read him like a book. As Fluttershy watched the stallion pose and wink, she swore that for a brief second, she saw nothing but pure exhaustion in his eyes that was gone as soon as she did a double-take. “Um…are you alright?” “Huh? Never better! Why do you ask?” “Oh, no reason. You just looked…tired?” Fluttershy saw another flash of fatigue behind those lidded eyes. Feather nervously looked to the side. “W-Well, now that you mention it…Do you mind if I rest here for a bit?” “It’s not a problem at all!” Fluttershy smiled, stepping to the side to let Feather Bangs in. Feather Bangs quickly sat down on the couch, letting out a loud sigh of relief as Fluttershy walked into the next room. Fluttershy quickly came back with a cup of tea, offering it to the stallion. “Thank you, you’re too kind,” he said quietly before taking a sip. “You’re welcome! Are you doing okay?” “Yeah, just feeling…” Feather Bangs took a deep breath. “...exhausted.” “Oh, I know that my cottage is a bit of a long walk from Ponyville-” Feather shook his head. “No, I don’t mean like that.” He looked over to the side towards nothing in particular, then back to Fluttershy. “Um…can you keep a secret?” Fluttershy was feeling wary, but she saw that Feather Bangs was looking vulnerable. “Sure.” “I’ve been going around, chatting with all these lovely ladies for the whole month, but all this talking to others has just been so…stressful!” Fluttershy blinked. What Feather Bangs said made sense, just not when it was coming out of his mouth. “Sorry, I…I know that probably sounds crazy. But the truth is…I-I’m really shy. Making conversation with others…it’s-it’s just terrifying!” “Wait…you’re…shy?” Fluttershy asked, puzzled by Feather’s confession. Feather Bangs laughed dryly. “Heh, hard to believe, right? But just the thought of talking to others gets me all nervous and shaky.” Fluttershy was still trying to make sense of it all. “I…wait, but you’ve been flirting with every female doing this No Clop challenge, haven’t you?” “It’s how I try to push past it all,” Feather Bangs nervously laughed. “Talking to a pony is one of the scariest things I can think of doing. So I figure the fastest way to practice being brave is to flirt!” “I…I would never have guessed. You just seem so…confident when you’re talking to someone!” “I’ve been forcing myself to get into all these uncomfortable situations, talking with all these ponies and dragons and changelings I’ve never met before,” Feather Bangs explained. “I still feel my heart racing in my chest whenever I approach someone, but if I don’t try, then I lose out on the chance to make a friend, and then I’d be alone. And that’s a lot scarier than making smalltalk.” Fluttershy stood speechless for a moment. “Wow, that’s amazing, Feather Bangs! I had no idea you were so brave!” “Heh, you’re the one that saves all of Equestria from disaster time and time again. I think that’s a lot braver than some silly ol’ flirt like me,” he winked. “Still, that’s a pretty amazing way you’re overcoming your fears! I almost wish I had that idea when I was still terrified of talking to other ponies,” she giggled. “I can only imagine how much safer we’d all be if you flirted with all of Equestria’s threats instead of fighting them.” The two of them shared a few laughs over the idea of a flirty Fluttershy, taming the likes of Discord, Sombra, Nightmare Moon, and Chrysalis with pickup lines. “So, I’m the last girl you had to talk to?” Fluttershy asked. “Yeah…” Feather Bangs nodded, quickly backtracking. “Not that you were my last choice or anything! Just, someone has to be last, y’know?” “Heehee, I get it. Well, what are you going to do for this last week since you’re all done?” Feather Bangs let out a heavy, contemplative sigh before speaking. “I was thinking of checking back with some of the ones that are still in. Maybe get to know them a little better before the big day.” “Oh, that sounds like a wonderful idea. I hope you don’t keep me waiting too long, though!” Fluttershy winked. “Haha, I’ll try to be as quick as a bunny.” > Day 23: A Queen's Awakening > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- “You know I was joking, right?” Cozy stared up at the crystal castle, then back at her travel companion. “No, you were right. I need answers,” Chrysalis glared at the towering pillars reflecting in the autumn daylight. “I have to know what that mare was thinking when she was handling the roster.” “I mean I always savor when you tell me I’m right, but this still seems really stupid,” Cozy said, shaking her head in disapproval. “Well, I didn’t ask you to be here, now did I?” Chrysalis snarled. “I’m capable of handling my own demons without an annoying pink one tailing me wherever I go.” Cozy rolled her eyes, sarcastically patting Chrysalis on the back. “Riiiight. Whatever, I’m gonna see if I can trick Sunburst into jerking off Flash or something,” she said before flying off. With an annoyed scowl on her face, Chrysalis stomped her way through the castle. Her focus was set on getting to the throne room, no matter who would get in her way. Though even as she slowed down to look, none of the guards seemed to even acknowledge her existence. No matter, she kicked the double doors to the throne room open, pointing an accusatory hoof at the princess on the throne. “You! I want answers, now!” she hissed. Cadence and Shining Armor looked up at the intruder that just burst through their castle without so much as a flinch of surprise. “Oh hey, Chrysalis, what do you want to know?” Cadence said with a smile and gentle wave. “I…” Chrysalis paused, confused why they weren’t even shocked she stormed in. “I want answers to this whole…thing that you’re hosting!” Shining casually sipped from his mug of coffee. “Is there a problem with how we’ve been hosting No Clop so far?” Chrysalis stomped her hoof on the floor. “First off, why would you two even think of inviting me to participate? Surely you must have some sort of ulterior motive!” Cadence and Shining armor exchanged looks. “Well, you still said yes, didn’t you?” Shining shrugged. “Plus you’re always going on about your pride as a changeling, and we figured you should get a second shot at proving that.” “Plus we heard from about your situation from Cozy Glow, and you seemed so lonely-” “I neither want nor need your pity!” Chrysalis barked, her lower eyelid twitching in fury. “But even besides me, why everyone else?” Cadence tilted her head. “I don’t follow. I just thought it’d be nice to give some others a chance to join in on this fun little game.” “Oh, don’t give me that!” Chrysalis scoffed. “These ponies and other creatures from all around the world, some of them barely have a connection to anyone else! There must be some other reason they’re on the roster!” Cadence’s expression hardened up. “Do you truly want to know?” Chrysalis’s head perked up. “Are you going to tell me?” Cadence stood up, her face still serious. “Very well.” Without another word, she started walking off, and Shining Armor quietly followed behind, slowly shaking his head in disapproval. Now confused and slightly concerned, Chrysalis followed. The walk was short and quiet, but plenty awkward as Cadence opened the door up to what looked like the couple’s bedroom. “Is this some kind of twisted joke?” Chrysalis said, blood already rushing to her cheeks. Still silent, Cadence walked to one of the walls and knocked on it with her hoof. The crystalline walls started to give way to create a hidden entrance to another room. Cadence stepped aside, gesturing with her hoof to let Chrysalis go in first. “What…what is this?” The side room was deceptively large, but there was so much that was placed inside. Blackboards, file cabinets, and thick binders. It looked more like something Twilight would have. But the most concerning thing was on the walls. All the walls. Photographs of ponies, griffons, dragons and all sorts of other characters, connected by different colors of string. Red string between pairings like Yona and Sandbar, Thorax and Ember, and Fluttershy and Discord. Purple string linking Kerfuffle, Celaeno, and Tempest together, as well as Tree Hugger with Fluttershy, Harshwhinny, and Discord. Several of the strings had sticky notes attached with various comments like “Very serious”, “Open relationship”, “Hasn’t confessed yet” and much more. Feather Bangs in particular had a lot of notes and strings attached to his picture. But it didn’t stop at just the current year’s participants, there were far more on the walls linked by threads and marked with sticky notes. Zecora and Daring Do, Cheerilee and Soarin’, Limestone Pie and Gilda, Pharynx and Mina…It was almost like all of Equestria and beyond was being…monitored… “I…this is…!” Chrysalis felt her breathing getting shorter. All this information was getting to be too much to process. At first glance, it looked so chaotic, but as Chrysalis started to study how each character connected to the others, she saw how it was organized to a meticulous and frightening degree. “You’re not the only one who gets stronger from love, you know,” Cadence finally spoke up, standing in the entryway. “It’s been such a delight getting all these new participants.” “So…this is why you…!” Cadence calmly nodded. “All of those ponies and buffalo and parrots that weren’t in the big inner circle before…Just have them participate in No Clop November, and that’s suddenly dozens of potential romantic connections right there! Of course, it doesn’t hurt to strengthen the love some couples already have for each other, maybe while adding a third or a fourth into the mix…” Chrysalis looked at Shining Armor. “How are you so calm? H-How long have you known?!” Shining took a tired sip of his coffee. “Honestly, after the first few years, it became kinda normal.” “It takes a lot of energy to magically force love. It’s a lot easier to just give a bunch of little nudges. Sure, it takes a bit more time, but when the love is more genuine, it’s easier to subtly manipulate them to do what you want…” Cadence's smug smile turned into a wicked grin. “After all, it’s amazing the lengths some will go to for love. As I’m sure you know already, Chrysalis.” “Wha…huh?” “Just imagine all the little things I could make happen just because someone loved their significant other. Improved physical health because muscles are attractive, precious gems being bought and sold because it makes a lovely gift to boost our economy, or perhaps a jealous or heartbroken ruler declares war…” Chrysalis’s jaw was agape. “W-Why show me this? Why tell me any of this!?” “Because…what are you going to do? Who are you going to tell?” Cadence sneered, walking right up to the terrified changeling’s face. “Who’s going to believe you?” For the first time, Chrysalis felt genuinely scared of Cadence. “Someone will have to believe me! They’ll find out about all of this! I-I won’t let you conquer Equestria before I do!” “Oh, don’t worry, I’ve got plenty of plans for you, Chryssie…” Cadence smirked, holding up pictures of 3 different ponies: A gray mare with a cross-eyed stare, an all-too familiar orange earth pony with a cowboy hat, and a green stallion with 5 o'clock shadow that already filled Chrysalis with disgust just by looking at him. “No…NO! You wouldn’t…!? Y-You’re not the type…!” Chrysalis’s legs gave out from under her as her head started to spin. The last clear image she saw was of Cadence’s wicked grin, her maniacal laughter echoing in her ears before everything went dark. “...llo? Helloooooo? Chryssie?” “Nnnguh…wuh? Huh? Who…?” Chrysalis groaned. Instead of being inside of Cadence’s castle, she was out on the streets of the empire, with Cozy Glow knocking her hoof on her head. “Oh good, you’re finally awake. Sheesh, I almost considered getting worried for you!” “I…where’s Cadence? I have to stop-” “Hell if I know,” Cozy shrugged. “I just came back to see you out cold. What even happened to you?” Chrysalis quickly shoved her hoof in front of Cozy’s mouth. “No time for that! We have to stop Princess Cadence from taking over Equestria with love!” Cozy Glow blinked in bewilderment. “Wow, you musta hit your head hard or something.” “No! I swear! She’s…evil! She’s planning on making everyone fall in love with each other so that she can manipulate them and everyone will do her bidding!” Cozy rolled her eyes as she pushed the rambling Chrysalis in the direction of the train station. “Yeah yeah, sure, grandma. Let’s get you to bed.” > Day 24: Flights of Fancy > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Silverstream was practically bursting from excitement, flapping her wings as she jumped around in circles. “Oooh, it’s almost here! It’s almost here!” “I know, right?” Windy Whistles was trotting in place, matching the hippogriff’s energy. “We’re so close I can practically taste it!” Silverstream put her hands on her own cheeks. “This orgy’s gonna be amaaaaziiiiing! I hope it’s even better than last time!” Windy looked at Silverstream with a mix of wonder and jealousy. “I haven’t been to one yet, what are they like?” “Oh it’s soooo great!” Silverstream gushed. “It’s just a whole night of sex and cumming and sex and…and nnnnnf!” Her legs nearly buckled underneath her from excitement. “That does sound amazing!” Though the two were downright exuberant about the upcoming event, their other friend was feeling less than happy about the end of the month approaching. “Aww, what’s wrong, Kerfuffle?” Windy asked. “Aren’t you looking forward to the orgy?” “O-Oh, I’m still looking forward to it, don’t get me wrong!” Kerfuffle said, trying to force a smile on her face. “I just wish that I could be spending it with the new friends I made…” “Riiight, I heard about that…” Windy put her hoof on Kerfuffle’s back. “You really hit it off with Tempest and Celaeno, didn’t you?” Kerfuffle sadly nodded. “I really felt a connection with them. And we were all gonna look so cute with the different matching accessories I made!” “Aww, I know how you feel,” Silverstream said. “I always wanted to do an orgy with as many of my friends as possible. I always had a bunch of toys ready and everything, but it like, never works out! At least one or two of us always seems to lose and it throws all the plans out of whack! Like this year, Yona was the first one out, and then Smolder lost, too! So don’t feel too bad about it, these things just sorta happen!” “And well, I’ve only done this once before, so I’ve only kinda ruined my own plans,” Windy sheepishly giggled. “But I’ve learned that it’s not easy for everyone to stay in. You should feel happy that you’ve made it so far for your first time! Heck, I know you’ll make it all the way!” Kerfuffle let out a giggle as a small, but genuine smile showed on her face. “I guess you’re right…” “Besiiiides!” Silverstream said, putting her arm around Kerfuffle’s neck. “You can still have some fun with us!” “Oooor you can join one of us with one of our plans! I’m sure the others won’t mind a plus one!” Windy leaned closer to other pegasi’s ear to whisper. “Me and Twilight Velvet are gonna go craaaazy!” “Yeah? How crazy?” Before they knew it, all three of them were chattering away, talking about what they had planned or what they wanted the most, laughing and squealing excitedly as they got lost in their own conversation. “Pardon me, but what are you ladies getting so excited over?” The trio turned to see who walked in on their, admittedly very loud, conversation. “Hiya, Ms. Harshwhinny!” Silverstream waved. “We were just talking about our plans for the orgy! You wanna join us?” “Oh yeah, it’s super fun!” Kerfuffle nodded. “What are you gonna do when December rolls around?” “Plans, hm?” Harshwhinny got closer to the group, sitting down and joining the circle that they made. “Admittedly, I haven’t done much in regards to who I’d be with. The nature of the game is far too volatile to make solid plans…But there have been a few I’ve been keeping my eye on…” A collective intrigued “ooooh” came from the trio as they leaned in to hear more. “Unfortunately, it seems I will not be entertained by Miss Hugger or Mr. The Dragon this year. However, it seems that Mr. Bangs, Mr. Thorax and Mr. Armor are still available, fortunately.” “Wow, lotta guys on your list!” Kerfuffle ribbed. “Lucky you!” A small blush appeared on Harshwhinny’s cheeks. “Oh, it’s not just them, I assure you. I did have other plans. I’ve been waiting with bated breath for what Miss Dash wants to do with me.” Windy was immediately more invested. “Oooh? You’re getting with my Dashie in December?” “Indeed, Mrs. Whistles. Assuming no last-minute disasters, of course,” she nodded. “I have no clue what she’s planning, but she made the rather bold claim that I’d be ‘screaming her name out’. I can only hope that it’s for a good reason.” “Aw, she’ll be GREAT! I heard that Dashie was pleasuring everyone that made it the last two years!” “Yeah, she’s lots of fun to be with!” Silverstream nodded. The corner of Harshwhinny’s lip turned up with a scoff. “Well, I suppose I can take those as glowing recommendations, but I’d rather experience it for myself to be convinced.” “Oh, I’m sure that she’ll be good at it! Thorax and Shining Armor, too!” Kerfuffle said, turning to contemplatively tap her chin as an idea quickly started to form. “…Hm…” “And, well, if Rainbow somehow isn’t living up to your high standards,” Windy flashed a smug grin as she winked. “I’d be happy to give it a try myself!” Stunned, Ms. Harshwhinny put a hoof to her chest as she reeled back. “Mrs. Whistles, are you truly proposing…?” “Don’t misunderstand me, Ms. Harshwhinny. I still have full faith that Dashie can make you scream out her name in seconds, but that doesn’t mean I can’t do the same!” Harshwhinny quickly eyed over Windy Whistles, tilting her head with a mischievous smirk. “Hmm, in that case, do you think you could do it faster than Miss Dash?” Now it was Windy’s turn to reel back in shock. “Me? Compete with my own daughter?” “Why not?” Harshwhinny shrugged. “For all the talk about her being exceptional, I’d hate to see you sell yourself short. It’d certainly be more interesting if the stakes were raised. Plus, if you were good enough to break Princess Celestia’s long-running streak, you must be doing something right.” “Oh, that’s very tempting…” Kerfuffle turned to Silverstream, watching as the two mares got increasingly more intense. “I had no idea this game could get so…competitive!” “Oh you don’t know the half of it!” Silverstream laughed. Feather Bangs set his hooves down on the dusty road once more. It honestly didn’t feel like long ago that he started his long journey here. He felt something swelling up in his chest, but there was no time for feeling nostalgic. He quickly set off through the town on his new search. The stallion kept turning his head from side to side, constantly looking around and searching through the crowds of ponies. It was how he found her the first time, surely he could get lucky again. As his head was turned to the side, Feather Bangs felt his momentum suddenly stop as he accidentally slammed into something, falling onto his flank. Slightly stunned, Feather Bangs looked up to see a ruggedly handsome stallion staring down at him. “Whoops! Sorry about that!” Braeburn extended his hoof out to help the other stallion up. Feather Bangs got pulled back up to his hooves. “O-Oh! Thanks! Sorry, about um…bumping into you.” “Shucks, ain’t a problem!” Braeburn grinned. “Say, you look familiar…you wouldn’t happen to be Feather Bangs, would ya?” “Uh?” Feather Bangs froze up. “Yeah, that’s me.” He scrambled to try and do a confident hoof point. “Well now, what brings you to Appleloosa, cutie?” Feather Bangs was immediately disarmed, a blush flashing onto his cheeks. “Whuh? Er…Ah…? I was looking for Little Strongheart. D-Do you know where I might find her?” “Find her, huh? I think I have an idea,” Braeburn winked. “Just need to follow me.” Feather Bangs watched Braeburn turn and walk away, and without any time to ask any follow-up questions, he tailed him. He followed Braeburn down to a cozy little house surrounded by a few apple trees. “Oh, is this where Little Strongheart lives?” Braeburn casually looked behind him as he unlocked the door. “Hm? Nah, she lives outside the town. This is my house.” Feather Bangs blinked in confusion as he tried to process what Braeburn just said. “I…but where’s Little Strongheart?” “Heck if I know,” Braeburn shrugged. “But Ah know she’ll be here in about half an hour.” “Wait, then what am I supposed to do?” “Well, I’d recommend getting comfy,” Braeburn smiled, gesturing to his couch. Feather Bangs reluctantly shrugged and took a seat next to Braeburn, idly looking around the room of his comfy home and trying not to let the awkwardness of their silence kick in. Braeburn was courteous enough to start up the conversation. “So, I hear you’ve been pretty busy all month.” “You could say that, yeah,” Feather Bangs smirked. “Well, gotta say, Ah think it takes some real dedication to go all around Equestria like that, tryna make all those ladies happy.” “You really think so?” “Of course!” Braeburn nodded. “Don’t think anyone ‘cept Pinkie Pie would make the effort to meet so many others doing this challenge! You’ve got some real determination there!” Feather Bangs sheepishly rubbed the back of his neck. “Oh, uh, thanks!” Braeburn gave Feather Bangs a playful nudge. “Heh, bet you were makin’ all of them swoon!” A few scary and some painful memories instantly resurfaced for an instant on Feather Bangs’s face. “Ehehe…n-not exactly all of them…” “Whaaaat? You’re telling me they weren’t all falling for you instantly?” Braeburn chuckled. “Yeah, well, it happens,” he sheepishly shrugged. “Can’t be lucky all the time, ya know?” Braeburn lightly slapped Feather Bangs on the back. “Luck? Shoot, with a cute face like that, I’m surprised mares aren’t throwing themselves at yer hooves!” Feather Bangs felt his heart skip in his chest. “I! Aaahaaa…! You…you really think my face is cute?” “‘Course!” Braeburn chuckled. “Well, not just your face.” He lifted the other stallion’s chin up. “There’s a lot about you that’s cute.” “L-Like what?” Feather Bangs felt himself getting short of breath. His entire face was burning up with every honeyed word Braeburn was saying. Every time Braeburn spoke he felt his heart pounding in his burning ears, but he wanted to hear more. Braeburn moved his muzzle a little bit closer. “Well, cute face, a cute mane flip, a cute voice with a cute lil’ giggle…” “Ahahaha…” Feather Bangs wasn’t sure if he was laughing out of anxiety or if he wanted Braeburn to hear it again. “Yeah, like that!” Braeburn smiled. “Plus the way you’ve been going around all over trying to make everyone happy? Shows you’ve got a lot of dedication and grit in ya. I think anyone would be lucky to have ya.” “Y-You really think so?” “Mmhm!” Feather Bangs was struggling to find something to say. It was so hard to concentrate on anything else when he could practically feel the other stallion’s breath on his muzzle. “Uh, Braeburn? You’re getting…r-really close…” “Oh, am I?” Braeburn smiled, feigning ignorance. “Sorry, you just look a lot more adorable up close. Ya want me to back up so I can admire your beauty from afar?” Feather Bangs repeatedly tripped on his own words, feeling more hot and bothered by the second. “No…! I just-I…it’s that…my…you! Um! We…” The stallion shut his eyes and lunged forward, locking lips with Braeburn and sending the Appleloosan onto his back. Braeburn’s eyes widened in surprise as he found himself lying down. Not that he wasn’t expecting some sort of retaliation. Feather Bangs cracked open his eyes, terrified of what sort of anger he might have incurred, but Braeburn still had that frisky look in his eyes, and instead of trying to push him off, he felt Braeburn’s hooves wrap around him. As Braeburn pulled him in closer, he could feel the warmth of Feather Bangs's body, as well as something else getting longer and stiffer that was pushing against him. And he was sure Feather Bangs was feeling the same thing. Feather pulled away, sitting upright, his full erection frotting with Braeburn’s. “Uh…I’ve always wanted to try it cowpony style…” “Well, guess we’re both getting lucky today,” Braeburn winked, holding his cock in position. “All yours, partner.” After a few deep, calming breaths, Feather Bangs lifted himself up, trying to get himself psyched up as he braced for penetration. “Heh, no need to strain yourself,” Braeburn said, grabbing onto Feather’s hoof. “I ain’t in a rush.” Feather Bangs felt the tip of Braeburn’s cock grinding up against his flank. He took a deep breath and held it as he took the plunge. The initial penetration caused tears to well up in his eyes, but he soon felt comfortable enough to ease Braeburn in, inch by inch. “There ya go, you’re gettin’ the hang of it!” Braeburn smiled, still holding onto his hoof for support. “Just go at your own pace, alright?” “Yeah…t-thanks, Braeburn…” Feather Bangs started out slow and a bit clumsy, trying to go up and down without getting too fast. Everything he was feeling in the moment was new and confusing, but also exhilarating. Braeburn let out a few grunts of approval. Feather Bangs was tightly hugging his shaft and it felt so damn good. Feather Bangs clenched his teeth. The discomfort was slowly wearing off, but it still felt straining taking in all of Braeburn’s length. “Nngh…! This…ah! This feels…!” “Good?” Braeburn let out an airy laugh, a bead of sweat dripping down the side of his head. “Y-Yeah…Aah…fuck…!” Feather Bangs felt himself take the entirety of Braeburn’s dick. He sat there for a few seconds to get used to the feeling before lifting himself back up. “Ya doing alright so far?” Braeburn asked, seeing some sweat and tears fall from Feather Bang’s muzzle. Feather slowly nodded. “Uh-huh…” He tried to relax his body as he repeated the process, going a little bit faster now that he was getting a little bit more used to the feeling. Braeburn let out a little “Oooh” as he felt Feather Bangs go down again, feeling Feather’s flanks touch his thighs before going back up. Slowly but surely, Feather Bangs was getting into his groove. He still grasped onto Braeburn’s warm hoof for support, but the pleasure finally started to override the discomfort. “Woah…Feather Bangs…! Ah! Jus’ like that!” Braeburn started to sweat as he was getting a smoother ride. Feather Bangs closed his eyes as his movements started to feel natural. He could finally concentrate on how deep Braeburn was inside of him, the little moans that came out of his mouth, the long creak presumably from the couch that the two were on, and the thud that probably felt like them slamming the couch against the wall. Braeburn saw that Feather was throbbing and leaking pre as he kept bouncing on top of him. “Hoo…” He pulled the brim of his hat over his eyes. Feather Bangs yanked the hat out of Braeburn’s grip, wearing it for himself. “C’mon, at least lemmie look into those pretty eyes of yours!” “Well, better hurry…! D-Don’t think I can hold out for much longer!” Braeburn warned. “M-Me neither! I…! I think I’m-AAAAAAH!” Without any further warning, Feather Bangs shot off, covering Braeburn’s face and chest with ropes of his cum, his cock throbbing as he unloaded over three weeks of neediness onto the other stallion. Braeburn finished off inside Feather Bangs shortly after, his hooves twitching and kicking as his cum started to spurt and leak outside. Feather Bangs fell forward, letting his flank relax as he rested on Braeburn’s messy chest. “You know, you made some pretty cute sounds, too,” he weakly giggled. “You both did,” a female voice said, followed by the sound of loud sipping. Horrified, Braeburn and Feather Bangs turned to see Little Strongheart in the room, drinking from a mug of cider. Too exhausted to move and far too messy to try to hide anything, the stallions panicked and stammered in shock. “Yeah, I walked in a few minutes ago, you two were just too busy to notice,” Little Strongheart grinned. “Made for a great show though. Is that the sort of stuff I can expect when I’m there by myself at the orgy?” > Day 25: Best Laid Plans > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rainbow Dash was busy doing her usual sky patrol, looking for anything out of the ordinary. So far, everything looked and sounded normal. Ocellus was helping Pinkie Pie with some cookies, Lyra and Bon Bon were making out right behind Town Hall, Rarity walked out of the spa after getting a happy ending… Though she heard something else that gave her enough reason for concern, a deep, agitated sigh coming from somewhere by the lake, so she set course to investigate. As she got closer, she got a clearer view of who was sounding so down. “Sup Thorax, that was a pretty heavy sigh there.” Thorax’s head perked up. “O-Oh! Rainbow Dash! I, uh, didn’t know you were around! You heard all that?” “Eh, sorry,” Dash nonchalantly shrugged. “Kinda part of the job. You seemed pretty down, though. Something up?” “It’s nothing big, really,” Thorax said while rubbing his forehoof. “Just heard that Spike and Ember took themselves and Smolder out of the game, so…” “Oh right, Twilight told me about that,” Rainbow nodded. “Had a lot of plans with them, huh?” Thorax’s antlers nearly hit the dirt as he lowered his head. “I was really looking forward to doing something with the three of us…” he grumbled. “It was gonna be so fun, I was gonna turn into a dragon too, and…ugh…” Rainbow Dash sat down next to him, patting the changeling on the back. “Yeah, the last few days are always rough. Everyone’s a lot more pent up.” “Heck, one of them going out I could’ve handled, but both of them? Again? With each other?” “That’s the risk you take when you play.” Dash shrugged.  “Okay, but them taking each other out two years in a row?” “Yeeaaah, that does seem like a joke being played on you. Probably just bad luck, but still.” Thorax shot Dash a tired, almost agitated look. “Sorry, I wish I could sympathize more, but I don’t exactly have the best track record of actually winning at this thing. Not like you.” Dash stopped hovering to sit down next to him. “My ‘ruined orgy plan’ experience is because I’m the one who came early and ruined someone else’s plans instead. At least you get to have other options when you actually make it.” “I guess…” “Hell, my worries have been more of who’s still in rather than who’s out,” Dash cringed. Thorax turned his head towards the pegasus. That was a rather new concept for him. “What do you mean?” Rainbow Dash clenched her teeth and sucked in some air as she rolled her head backward. “Well, there’ve been some participants that I haven’t been excited to be a part of the orgy with, to put it nicely.” Thorax kinda understood, but still needed a little help getting all the way there. “Like who?” “Like a stallion who’s convinced I’ve been in love with him ever since we were kids,” Rainbow Dash shuddered. “Or my mom.” “Ah, yeah that makes sense,” Thorax nodded. “But what’s so bad about your mom being a part of the orgy?” “Imagine if Chrysalis was watching you at the orgy, commenting and criticizing you on every single thing you did.” All it took was a single mental image to make Thorax shudder. “Oooh, that’s bad.” “Now imagine her praising you on everything you did instead.” “Aaaand that’s even worse.” “Yyyyeah.” Rainbow rubbed her temples with her hooves. “I love her and all but if I hear her cheering about how I’m ‘the best lay in Equestria’ I am going to die.” “Well, why don’t you just ask her to not do that?” Thorax asked, stating the obvious solution. “Because I am just as terrified of having that conversation and it’s way easier to just hope she takes herself out like last year.” Thorax silently raised an eyebrow. Each second that passed with Thorax staring at her filled Rainbow Dash up with guilt until she threw her hooves up. “Fine! I’ll talk to her at the end of the month. Happy?” With a sly smirk, Thorax nodded. “A little, though it doesn’t solve my issue.” “I don’t see why you’re so down about it,” Dash said. “Sure you won’t get to spend intimate time with Ember and Spike at the orgy, but you’re not planning on dropping out because of that, right?” “I guess not…” “Plus, you’re a changeling! You’re like the actual best orgy partner!” Dash pointed out. “You can make pretty much any fantasy come true!” Thorax sheepishly chuckled. “Ehehe, right…” “You’re really sweet and approachable, too. It makes it a lot easier for everyone to talk to you about all the weird things they want.” Thorax gave Rainbow a light shove. “Oh quit it, you’re gonna make me blush!” “I know it’s not gonna be the same, but surely you can find your own fun and meet your own needs some other way, right?” “...Yeah, I guess you’re right.” Thorax smiled warmly. “Thanks for the pep talk, Rainbow Dash.” “No prob!” Dash quickly shifted her eyes from side to side. “And uh, since we’re on the topic, if we both make it the final week, do you think that maybe…” Rainbow Dash started whispering her idea into Thorax’s ear. “...Really?” “Who else am I supposed to ask, Chrysalis?” Dash said defensively. “Gallus is still in, isn’t he?” Thorax pointed out. “Yeah but, I dunno, it’s not like he’s got a thing for hooves.” “Alright, so Feather Bangs ‘n’ Braeburn are out, surprisingly didn’t take Strongheart with ‘em. I can see Harshwhinny bein’ hard to break, but not impossible. Though maybe I oughta go for Sandbar or Kerfuffle as an easy target…” Babs thought out loud, looking between different pinned sheets of notes and photographs on the clubhouse wall. “...Would help a lot more if I wasn’t doin this by myself,” she grumbled, looking around at the otherwise empty room. Not that she expected her other two partners in crime to be there actively trying to plan more sabotages for the entire month, far from it. You’d have to be insane to constantly think about No Clop November all the time. Though it still felt lonely planning by herself. Discord probably got chewed out by Fluttershy early on and wouldn’t be able to help as often, which was an understandable sacrifice, but Cozy Glow had been showing up less frequently. Sometimes it was to carry out a plan, but as the month went on, it was mostly just Babs making visits to the clubhouse to plan. “Eh, I should probably just take a break for today,” Babs sighed, leaving all the papers on the floor as she walked towards the door. As Babs walked down the steps, the cool autumn winds blew against her mane, causing her body to shiver. She sat down and relaxed her body against the trunk of the tree, giving her mind a chance to unwind. Casting her current gripes aside, she was really happy with what she and her friends accomplished this month. Taking out Twilight, Tree Hugger, and Tempest definitely wasn’t easy. But her obvious favorite was Yona. Being able to take down a big strong yak so gently was immensely satisfying. Especially being able to double team her with Cozy. Yona must have been in heaven, constantly peppered with kisses and gently stroked, to be touched and loved so tenderly, to have Cozy rub her. It probably felt something like… Before she knew it, Babs was slowly touching herself, the tip of her hoof rubbing against her clit. Babs let out a frustrated “Fuck” under her breath, but only leaned her head back as she moved her hoof in little circles. “Nnngh…Cozy…” she said between heavy pants. Her free hoof pounded the ground in frustration. Her other hoof dipped in a little deeper, rubbing her inner folds. “Fuck I wish you were here so bad…” She shut her eyes, letting her imagination take control. First from Cozy guiding her hoof, to having it be Cozy’s hoof herself. “I want you…I want you! Gah I want you so bad!” Babs’s hoof moved faster, her mind filling up with feelings of lust and longing. “I want you here, I want you with me…I…I!” Her hoof continuously rubbed against her clit, crying out as the pleasure completely overtook her. “Aaaaaah I LOVE YOU COZY!” Babs gasped for breath, lying in the afterglow before she opened her eyes and came to her senses. “Uuugh, the fuck am I doing?” she regretfully mumbled, putting her wet hoof to her forehead. “Not waiting for me, apparently.” “Ohhhh shit!” Babs scrambled back to her hooves, trying to clean herself up as Cozy Glow approached. “Uh, hey! You didn’t hear any of that did ya?” She asked with fading hope in her eyes. “Not all of it,” Cozy smirked. “Even if I didn’t, it’s not like I needed to.” “Ah…so, you…know?” ”You literally kissed me like two weeks ago.” Cozy ruffled up Babs’s mane over her eyes. “You aren’t exactly good at hiding it, ya dummy.” Babs pushed her bangs away from her face as she laughed nervously. “Ehehehe…so, uh…what now?” “Well, you sabotaged yourself there, so there goes any orgy plans with us.” “Right…yeah…” Cozy pulled Babs closer, enough so that they were muzzle to muzzle. “But we can still make other plans, right? I’ve got all day free. Whaddya say we try something new? Just the two of us?” > Day 26: For a Change > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- “I must say, Chrysalis, I always thought the decor of your home would be a bit more…” Celestia looked around, tapping her chin. “Oh, what’s the word?” “Well pardon me if my new life doesn’t allow me to have the same luxuries I once had,” Chrysalis hissed. “Still, you’ve made quite a lovely home for yourself. I trust that you’re at least comfortable living here?” Chrysalis rolled her eyes. “Can it, Celestia. I don’t need the small little pleasantries. Just tell me what sort of trouble I must have caused to warrant your appearance,” she grumbled. “Not that I’ve actually done anything wrong…” “Oh, I’m not here to reprimand you or anything of the sort.” “Right, you just came to insult my interior decorating,” Chrysalis said flatly. “What’s the real reason you’re here?” “There’s no real reason, really,” Celestia softly chuckled. “I’m only visiting you because I want to, not because I have to.” Chrysalis remained unconvinced, carefully eyeing the princess to see if she was hiding anything. “And what possible reason would you have to want to visit me?” Celestia gave her a nonchalant shrug and a coy smile. “Perhaps I wanted to see how you were doing. Despite still feeding off love, you’re awfully distant and reclusive.” “So this is just a visit for your own pleasure then.” Chrysalis turned up her nose, still keeping her distance from the princess. Celestia nodded. “Just you and me, Chrysalis.” Now enticed, Chrysalis raised an eyebrow. A smile started to grow as she started to realize something. “Just us, hm? You paid a visit to me in an isolated area, all alone?” Celestia matched Chrysalis's wicked grin with a smug smirk of her own. “Planning an attack right in front of my face? While I might be alone, I’m not entirely helpless.” “...True, it would be unwise to try and take you out of Equestria right now…” Chrysalis flicked her forked tongue in Celestia’s direction. “Though taking you out of the game is still an option…” “If that’s your plan, then by all means,” Celestia chuckled, turning around to show more of her flank off to Chrysalis, purposefully goading her further. “I don’t have to worry about a perfect record or a winning streak, and if I go, then I intend to take you with me.” Chrysalis’s hungry look hit a moment of hesitation. “It would certainly cause quite the stir if I couldn’t play with some of the others at the orgy, but are you alright with losing two years in a row? Or knowing that Thorax outlasted you?” Chrysalis grit her teeth, taking one more look at Celestia’s flank, trying to weigh the odds. “Rrrgh, fine!” she snarled, standing up straight. “If this is truly just a casual visit, then I suppose I can entertain the idea for now…” “Excellent!” Celestia immediately made herself comfy on the couch, patting the cushion next to her. With a growl of contempt deep in her throat, Chrysalis took a seat next to Celestia. It was annoying enough to have Cozy Glow constantly crashing on her couch, but willingly letting Princess Celestia sit next to her… “So tell me, Chrysalis, what sort of plans do you have for December?” Celestia asked, playfully leaning over towards Chrysalis, but just stopping short of actually leaning on her. Chrysalis rolled her eyes as she pushed Celestia back to “her side” of the couch. “Hmmph, is ‘sucking the love from everyone available’ not a sufficient answer?” “Well that sounds a bit ambiguous,” Celestia giggled, leaning towards her once more. “Almost like you don’t have a plan at all…” “Of course I do!” Chrysalis objected. “So you know exactly how to seduce the likes of Fluttershy, or Ms. Harshwhinny, or Windy Whistles, then?” “O-Of course I do!” Chrysalis let out a deflective chuckle. “Like it’s hard?” “Oh, probably not. I’d just be surprised if you knew how to pull it off, considering you hardly leave your lair,” Celestia pointed out. Chrysalis squinted her eyes and furrowed her brow. “What are you trying to say?” “I just think that Feather Bangs would’ve made those mares happier. He actually went out of his way to try and know what they like, after all.” Chrysalis’s lower eyelid twitched in rage. “You honestly think some floozy himbo can outdo ME in seduction? His pick-up lines haven’t even graduated from elementary school!” Celestia tilted her head to the side with a smug grin. “Maybe so, but at least he was making an effort to be friendly to them before the big event.” Just the word “friend” was enough to send Chrysalis into a fury. “Oh, so this is suddenly a ‘friendship lecture’ now, is it? Do you think I’m just going to suddenly play nice with everyone because you talked to me once?” Even with Chrysalis baring her fangs, Celestia remained as calm and smug as ever. “No, I don’t expect you to change after this one conversation. I’m merely suggesting that getting to know the competition makes the orgy experience a lot more enjoyable.” “Well, so long as I win, I’ll play this game however I damn well please!” the changeling snarled. “And there’s nothing you can do or say to change that!” “Alright, I won’t press further on it, then,” Celestia shrugged, leaning back to her seat. Chrysalis took a breath as the anger started to wear off. “...Am I allowed to ask you a question now?” “By all means.” “I’m not one to complain about a free meal, but…” Chrysalis’s eyes shifted before giving Celestia a confused and almost pitiable expression. “Why do I get invited to participate?” Celestia tapped her hoof to her chin. “Well, I can’t speak for Princess Cadence, but I do think there’s a significant amount of demand to let you join in on the fun, despite your history.” “Tch! You ponies are either far too naive, or far too forgiving of what I’ve done,” she scoffed. “Perhaps it’s the creative possibilities of being with a changeling, or the excitement of being with royalty. And if it just so happens to feed you in a way that satisfies someone else, too, then…” Chrysalis pouted her lips. “So is that why? For the thrill of it?” “I think it would do you some good to enjoy yourself a bit more. I’ve seen how close you’ve been getting with Cozy Glow,” Celestia winked. “Not by choice!” “Maybe so, but I have a feeling the more you spend time with her, the less frequent your hunger pangs get.” Chrysalis’s mouth hung open, trying to recall the last time she was truly starving for love. “I…Wait, what are you-” “Ah! Would you look at the time!” Celestia exclaimed, looking down at her hoof at a watch that wasn’t there. “I have to be at another delegation or meeting or whatever. Ta-ta!” She quickly waved goodbye, teleporting out of Chrysalis’s home before she had a chance to utter a word. > Day 27: Two Steps Back > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Smolder and Silverstream walked through the halls of the students’ dorms, as the former was relaying the disappointing news to the latter. “Just like that, huh?” Silverstream asked. Smolder gave Silverstream a resigned shrug. “Yeah, Ember just did it out of nowhere. I don’t know why I did it, but it all just sort of…happened.” “Woooow, I can’t believe Ember knocked you AND Spike out at the same time!” “Yeah…but on the plus side, I guess I know how Ember feels about me.” Smolder forced a half-hearted smile on her face. “So, there’s that.” Silverstream giggled, wrapping an arm around Smolder. “Yeah, Ember’s pretty bad at expressing her feelings, not like you, of course!” Smolder’s face twisted as she was pulled into Silverstream’s chest, unsure if the hippogriff was making a sarcastic joke at her or not. “Well, I guess I’ll just have fun in your place!” Silverstream cheered, “Ooh, I can’t wait!” “I’m sure they’ll stuff you good,” Smolder snarked. Silverstream’s smile started to fade. “Oh, but I still wish you and Yona could join us! And Ocellus too!” “Ah, don’t worry too much about it,” Smolder said, trying to reassure her. “I was already saving stuff to do with Ocellus, I can hoard more ideas for next time.” As they kept walking, they heard a groan from behind one of the doors. The two immediately turned their heads, zeroing in on where the sound came from, and their curiosity turned to worry when they recognized whose room it was. “...Is that Gallus?” “Yep, sounds just like him,” Silverstream nodded. Smolder snorted. “Glad you know what his horny moans sound like.” “Well, we should probably stop him before it’s too late, shouldn’t we?” “Eugh, what if we open the door and he sprays us?” “You’re already out, what’s the worst that could happen?” Smolder’s mouth hung open for a moment, before shrugging and conceding to Silverstream’s point. She turned the doorknob, her muzzle twisting in disdain as it turned all the way before pushing the door open. Sure enough, the two saw Gallus on his bed. One claw gripping onto his bedsheets, the other wrapped around his cock, slowly pumping his shaft, with pre dribbling down the tip. The griffon immediately froze at the sudden break-in. “Gyah! What the FUCK!?” His hand slowly opened up to grab the blanket and delicately cover up. “Do you MIND?! I’m having a private moment!” “With your room unlocked?” Smolder gestured to the door. “Just…whatever! Get out already!” Gallus squawked, trying to shoo them away. Silverstream took a step forward. “Ohhh, no! We’re not about to let you lose all on your lonesome!” “Besides, the orgy’s like 3 more days away.” Smolder took a seat on the foot of Gallus’s bed. “It’d be pretty lame if you went out just jerking off in your bed all by yourself.” Gallus looked down; he was still hard and dripping, but he wasn’t quite in danger of bursting just yet. “Damnit! I just feel so…pent up!” “Heyyy, come on!” Silverstream sat on the other side of the bed, patting Gallus on the back. “You gotta tough it out!” “I don’t know if I can!” Gallus sweated, dropping the blanket to his lap to show his twitching cock. Silverstream put her hands on Gallus’s shoulders. “Focus, Gallus! I know things seem desperate right now, but you gotta think ahead to the future! You wanna be in the winner’s circle at that orgy, don’t you?” “Y-Yeah?” “You wanna have another long night of amazing, mind-blowing sex, right?” “Right…?” “So you’re gonna stick it out, right?” “I…I don’t know!” he cried out, slumping off of the bed and onto the floor. Silverstream scratched her head. “...Huh, not exactly the reaction I was expecting from my motivational speech…” “C’mon, dude.” Smolder leaned over the bed. “You made it this far, you can make it a few more days, can’t you?” “I’m trying, damnit!” Gallus leaned his head back, “I know it’s only a few days, but that still feels like forever at this point!” “Yeah, but isn’t there still stuff you wanna do at the orgy? Some sort of opportunity that you wouldn’t get otherwise?” “I…uh…” Gallus took heavy, labored breaths as he tried to think up an answer. But despite his efforts to concentrate, his mind was too clouded to recall anything. Smolder raised an eyebrow. “...Seriously? Nothing?” She threw her hands up in exasperation. “There’s no way you had no plans this entire month.” “I DID!” Gallus snapped. “But most of them are out already! Like you!” Silverstream tried to be reassuring, nudging Gallus with her hoof. “Yeah, but me and Sandbar are still in!” “Yeah, I guess…” He said rather dismissively. “Well, what did you wanna do the most?” Gallus tilted his head down, mumbling something under his breath. Smolder and Silverstream exchanged confused glances. “Uh…what was that?” “Isaidiwantedtempest…” Gallus trailed off. “Still not coming clear, dude.” “I wanted Tempest!” Gallus blurted out, crossing his arms angrily. “Ohhhh!” “Noooow I remember,” Smolder nodded, smirking as she pointed at Gallus “You said you wanted her to step on you, right?” “I-I didn’t say that!” A flustered Gallus sputtered out. “Yeah, out loud,” Smolder scoffed. “But you still wanted it to happen, right?” A big droplet of sweat went down Gallus’s forehead, struggling to gather enough dignity to answer. “Aww, that’s adorable!” Silverstream cooed, poking his cheek with the tip of her hind hoof. “S-Shut up!” Gallus swatted Silverstream away, using the poke as an excuse to cover hup his blushing cheeks. “I mean, not the grandest of fantasies, but I can still totally picture you getting into it,” Smolder teased, putting her foot on the griffon’s chest to rile him up further. And just as Gallus pushed her away, Silverstream’s hooves came right back to rub up against his face. “And besides! Even if Tempest can’t do it, I can still step on you!” Gallus hated that he actually considered the offer for a solid second. “I…” “What’s the matter, Gallus?” Smolder’s big toe tapped against Gallus’s fluffy chest. “Thought you wanted to be stepped on!” The poor griffon’s face started to burn up. “T-That’s not…! I don’t…! N-Not like this!” “Aww, why not?” Silverstream tilted her head, sounding almost insulted. “I can do a good job stepping on you, look!” Her hooves started patting and tapping around Gallus’s cheeks and shoulder. Smolder waggled her finger. “Nah, I don’t think that’s it, Silverstream. I think he wants it done by Tempest because he wants it to be forceful just like her.” Smolder planted a foot on Gallus’s cheek, pushing his head towards the other side of the bed. “Just like this, right?” Gallus winced, but the fact that his cock was already erect and throbbing more than confirmed Smolder’s theory. “Ohhhh, alright! Lemmie try again!” Silverstream put her hoof on Gallus’s other cheek, pushing his head to make him sit up straight. With a foot and a hoof on each cheek, there was now enough resistance on both sides so that they could start squishing his face. “Aaah…no…w-waiiit…!” Gallus felt the push of Smolder’s sole and Silverstream’s hoof rubbing against both his cheeks. Despite his weak protests, he didn’t lift up a claw to try and stop them. The only part of his body that rose up was his dick. Silverstream looked down at Gallus and giggled. “Whoopsie, we should probably take care of that too, shouldn’t we?” “Only if Gallus wants us to,” Smolder said, looking at Gallus with a knowing smirk. She tapped her big toe against Gallus’s beak, waiting for him to speak. Gallus made a tense groan, no matter which direction he turned his head, it was met with either a dragon sole or a hippogriff hoof. “Rrrgh! Fine! J-Just do it!” “Do whaaaaat?” Silverstream teased. Gallus muttered a quick curse under his breath. “S-Step all over me!” Smolder and Silverstream looked at each other and grinned. With her left foot on Gallus’s cheek, Smolder put her right foot on Gallus’s chest, slowly trailing down his body until she got to his needy erection. Silverstream did the same. Her right hoof rested near Gallus’s beak if he so desired to kiss it, while her left hoof got to the other side of his shaft. Smolder spread her toes, gripping Gallus’s cock in between as she started to slowly stroke. “Nnnng…gah…!” Gallus gasped, his breathing became heavy and strained. Picking up from his edging session already put the griffon a few strokes away from erupting. Silverstream followed Smolder’s lead. Though she lacked the dexterity that Smolder had, she could still make do, putting her hoof on the other side of Gallus’s shaft and slowly moving up and down. Gallus tried his best to mentally keep himself from cumming. Partly to save himself the embarrassment of blowing his load too early and partly because of his impulsive begging. “M-More…! More!” Smolder shrugged, pressing the rest of her sole to his shaft to stroke. Her other foot kept Gallus’s face busy, rubbing her heel against his cheek or tapping the top of his head with her toes. Silverstream pressed one hoof against Gallus’s beak, waiting for him to kiss it while her other hoof teased and rubbed up against his knot. Gallus was hesitant, but desperate. He closed his eyes, giving the underside of Silverstream’s hoof a quick peck, cracking his eye open to see if that was the right call. When he saw Silverstream giving him a teasing smile, he bravely went for another. And another. While Gallus was busy kissing up Silverstream, Smolder kept stroking and rubbing Gallus’s shaft, feeling it throb against her sole. Silverstream giggled, putting her hoof underneath Gallus's chin and lifting it up. “You like doing that, don’t you?” Gallus was far too desperate. “I do!” He answered without hesitation. Smolder lifted up her foot, putting her sole down on top of Gallus’s head. “Bet you wanna cum real bad, huh?” Gallus could feel Smolder’s toes and Silverstream’s hoof just barely touching his needy shaft. “Yes! Just do it! I need it so bad! I’ll do anything! ANYTHING!” Without wasting another second, the two got to work. Smolder and Silverstream sandwiched Gallus in two ways with their feet and hooves respectively.  With one leg, they each started at the bottom of his shaft, moving up and down his cock, working in tandem to get him over the edge together. Silverstream kept her other hoof underneath Gallus’s chin, trying to direct his attention more towards her and Smolder. Smolder kept ruffling the top of Gallus’s head with her foot, giggling as his feathers brushed against her sole and between her toes, which only tickled more as Gallus’s trembling intensified the closer he got to his climax. Gallus was in a state of total bliss, huffing and gasping as the feet and hooves rubbed him in the right places. Being stuck between two pairs of feet and hooves pressing and stroking him. His entire body shuddered, finally shooting his load with a cathartic scream of joy. Smolder and Silverstream patted Gallus on the head with their legs as the griffon basked in the afterglow. Silverstream looked up to Smolder. “Well, now what?” Smolder chuckled and looked down at Gallus, still stuck in a satisfied stupor. “Well, I’m gonna go find Yona and Ocellus!” “I guess I better tell Sandbar the news, then.” “Ooh, let’s find him first, I want to see the look on his face when he sees what we did!” > Day 28: Save the Date > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- A very bored Cozy Glow flew through the streets of the Crystal Empire, looking for something to do to kill time for the last few days. So far, it was all so standard; just a bunch of crystal ponies going about their daily routine. Nothing was particularly eye-catching or interesting. At least, not until she got to the center of the city, There she saw Thorax in the middle of the road, his neck craned back to look up at the crystal castle in front of him. It was almost as if he was in a hypnotized trance, standing still, almost unblinking as everypony passed around him. Cozy flew up next to him, looking up and wondering if there was something weird that only he was seeing. But it all just seemed perfectly normal to her. “Uhh, Thorax? Why are you just staring at the castle like that?” Thorax didn’t even seem to register that Cozy was there, much less respond to her. “...Helloooo? Thorax? You there?” After several failed attempts of getting his attention the nice and sweet way, Cozy smacked the back of his head, her usual chipper voice gone for a harsher screech. “THORAX!” Thorax reeled from the hit, finally breaking out of his trance. “Gah! Ow! O-Oh, hey Cozy…” “Took ya long enough!” Cozy rolled her eyes. “Didja come all the way to the Crystal Empire just to stare at that all day?” “No, I wanted to chat with Princess Cadence because…um…I wanted…” His attention went right back to the castle once more, his face twisting into a more confused expression. Cozy mouth hung agape in shock as she was starting to lose Thorax again. She gave him a nudge this time to keep his attention. “...You wanted what?” Thorax rapidly shook his head. “Actually, you might be able to help instead.” His eyes briefly darted from side to side. “Have you seen Chrysalis lately?” “Not for a few days, why?” “Well, she came to talk to me a bit ago, and she seemed…” Thorax’s tongue pressed against his teeth, trying to find the nicest word possible. “...off. I thought as her closest friend, you might know something about it.” Cozy nearly sputtered with laughter at Thorax’s description of her relationship with Chrysalis. “I guess, what’s up with her?” “Have you seen her acting weirdly?” “All the time,” Cozy answered without skipping a beat. Thorax held back an annoyed eye roll. “Well, just yesterday she came back to the kingdom, saying that she needed to talk to me.” This time, Cozy couldn’t stop herself from letting out an amused snort. “Why would she go to you?” “I don’t know,” Thorax shrugged. “I guess despite everything, she still cares about me a little bit.” “Yeesh.” “Anyway, she started talking about how Princess Cadence is secretly planning on using No Clop November for her own benefit or something like that.” “Oh yeah, I remember hearing something about that last time I saw her!” Cozy nodded. “Something about Cadence using love to control ponies. Which, like, I thought that was like her whole plan as a changeling.” “Right?” Thorax smiled, amused at the absurdity. “She was screaming about how Cadence was secretly evil and trying to take over Equestria with love.” “Which is ridiculous! Have you seen Cadence?” Cozy giggled, looking up at the castle. “How could somepony so pink and cute and lovable possibly be filled with so much evil?” “It’s a mystery…” Thorax mumbled as he stared at the pegasus. Cozy turned back to Thorax. “I just thought she was going crazy when she told me. Probably just her being too horny and not thinking straight, ya know?” “I thought that too, but she seemed really insistent…” Thorax glanced over to the castle. “I don’t believe it at all, but something must have happened to make her think that…” “Eh, she’s probably just loopy.” Cozy waved a dismissive hoof. “Do you really think Cadence is capable of-” “Well, isn’t this a surprise?” As if being summoned, Princess Cadence started trotting towards the two. “It’s a rare sight to see you two talking. What brings you over to the Crystal Empire?” Thorax and Cozy blinked, glancing between each other and Cadence before Thorax spoke up. “Heya, Princess Cadence! We were actually just looking for you!” “We?” Cozy gave Thorax a bewildered look before getting a swift elbow to the side. “Oh yeah, yeah, totally.” Cadence gave the two a genuine warm smile. “Well, I can definitely help you out, do you mind if we chat inside?” The two followed Cadence as she walked into the room where all the crystal hearts were displayed. Thorax and Cozy were immediately drawn to how much had changed since they last saw it. “Impressive, right? A lovely little moment of each elimination!” Cadence giggled. “Golly, I’m sure glad I managed to stay in this year…” Cozy muttered, smirking as she looked over Tempest’s heart. Thorax pursed his lips as he saw the hearts of Ember, Smolder, and Spike. “Actually, this is part of why we came here, Cadence.” “Oh? You wanted to check in on the roster?” “Er…not exactly.” Thorax thought for a moment how to voice his concerns without sounding as crazy as Chrysalis did. “I wanted to ask why you wanted to host No Clop November in the first place.” Cadence blinked. “Well, someone has to be the host, right?” “I…guess, but isn’t it a lot of work? Especially all these crystal hearts and whatever magic you did to make them do all this…” “True, it did take a lot of effort to organize everything,” Cadence nodded. “But me and Shining had a lot of fun putting it all together! It was a labor of love, really.” Cozy decided to speak up. “So both you and your husband are responsible for all of the planning and stuff?” “Well, yeah! He had a lot of good ideas!” “Was one of his ideas who got invited this year?” Thorax asked. “Well, partly. We decided on the roster together,” Cadence explained. “It wasn’t easy narrowing the list down.” “So who’s bright idea was it to invite Chrysalis?” Cozy impulsively snarked. Cadence was quick to reply with a smirk. “Mine, actually. Even she deserves a bit of love.” “With all the new faces, it’s certainly been an…interesting roster this year.” Thorax said. “Perhaps, but I doubt it’s any stranger than what Twilight or Zecora have picked before me. There’s gonna be some new faces and some familiar ones, but I think that adds to the fun. Isn’t that what makes things exciting with Ember?” “I…yeah, it does…” Thorax sheepishly grinned. Cozy looked over the crystal hearts again. “Lotta matching sets here…Almost like they’re being paired up…” “Well, that’s just what happens when you clop out together,” Cadence shrugged. “You might’ve joined Babs if the circumstances were just right.” “...Yeah, I guess…” “Will you be alright, Cozy?” Cadence put a hoof on the mare’s shoulder. “Not being together with her at the orgy, I mean.” “Eh, I’ll be fine,” Cozy shrugged. “There’s always next year…or the rest of the year, now that I think about it. Now that she finally said it out loud, she might wanna make up for lost time.” “That’s just what I like to hear,” Cadence grinned.  > Day 29: Loved and Lost > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- “Oh come on, Fluttershy, you’re not still upset, are you?” Fluttershy curtly turned her head away from Discord. Even if she was too polite to say it, the disappointment and frustration on her face was clear. “I already said I was sorry, what more am I supposed to do?” Discord protested. Fluttershy grinded her teeth behind closed lips before feeling a hoof lightly grazing her back. “Come on, Shy, you can’t be upset at just him…” Fluttershy exhaled most of her stress out. “I know, Tree Hugger…but I was really looking forward to all of us getting in together!” “Yeah, it’s a major bummer, but it’s not entirely Discord’s fault, ya know…” Fluttershy looked back to Discord, seeing the genuine guilt on his face. “You’re right…I’m sorry, Discord.” Discord’s mood immediately perked up, picking the mare up to hug her tight. “Honestly, I don’t know why you’re getting so worked up over this. Or why you’re getting so mad at me. It’s not like this is the last one ever, and it was clearly mutual.” Fluttershy’s face turned stern once more. “Because this was Tree Hugger’s first year, and I expect better out of you!” “In my defense, you shouldn’t have left me unattended for long!” “I was gone for twenty minutes!” “Well, she still got a once-in-a-lifetime No Clop November experience that nopony else will get. Surely that counts for something, right?” Tree Hugger couldn’t help but chuckle. “It was pretty magical…” “And look, after all this, our relationship is better than ever!” Discord pulled Tree Hugger into his embrace, squeezing them both. “Didn’t you want us to get along better?” “You could’ve at least saved some of those brownies for me…” “Heh, I think this is the first month where both of us are out,” Spike chuckled, playfully sprawling on the bedsheets over Twilight’s legs. “And surprisingly, it wasn’t by each other,” Twilight smiled, pushing Spike onto his back as she continued with her book. Spike crawled back up to her, pushing the book down so that they could touch foreheads. “Guess that means we both have this Friday free, huh?” Twilight playfully rolled her eyes and snickered. “Well, we’re technically free right now, aren’t we?” “Not until you close that book.” Even with Spike’s face filling up most of her vision, Twilight darted back to the open pages. She didn’t want to turn Spike down, of course, but she was in the middle of a paragraph! And there were just two more pages until the next chapter! Twilight could feel the hot air from Spike snorting with amusement with how long it took for her to make what should have been an easy decision. Just as Twilight’s started to move the book, there was a rather loud and aggressive set of knocks at the door. The two looked at each other with a disappointed sigh as they rolled out of bed and opened the door to see why their visitor had an urgent need to see them. “...Ember?” The dragon awkwardly waved. “Hey Spike. And…Twiiiiiiliiiiiiight?” A simple nod from the princess made her pump her fist with this tiny victory. “What brings you all the way over here?” Twilight asked. “Well, I wanted to apologize to Spike. For, y’know…” She tentatively pressed her fingers together. Spike tried to wave off Ember’s concerns. “Ahh, don’t worry about it, it’s fine.” “But…I still meant all those things I said. About how much you mean to me.” Ember was visibly breathing heavily in discomfort, but still continued. “And I wish I could’ve shown you that in a way that…well…didn’t ruin both ours and Smolder’s chances.” “Wow, what letters from Twilight have you been reading recently?” Twilight’s eyes lit up with excitement as she pushed Spike aside. “Well, we’d be more than happy to teach you! There’s lots of ways you can express your gratitude, Ember!”  “Though if it’s too hard, then we can always try things out your way,” Spike winked. “After all, I’m sure you also wanna tell Twilight how you feel, right?” Kerfuffle looked up at Tempest and Celaeno, smiling to herself as she admired the work that the two were still proudly wearing on their bodies. “Ya know, out of the three of us, I didn’t expect to be the one that made it all the way!” She giggled. “You sure you don’t wanna join us?” Celaeno teased. “It can be just us for a whole daaaay...” Tempest let out a short chuckle with a faint smile. “It’s not too late…” “Nice try girls, but I intend to enjoy the spoils of my victory, thank you very much!” “Well, you certainly deserve it!” Tempest said. “It’s gonna be great, you’ll see.” “I just wish we could be there with ya,” Celaeno said with a mirthless chuckle. “Maybe if you weren’t so greedy…” “And maybe if you weren’t so sensitive…” Celaeno fired right back, swishing her tail feathers underneath Tempest’s belly, forcing an immediate blush and silly grin on the unicorn’s face. Kerfuffle stifled a giggle of her own. “Well, if it helps, Tempest, I think it’s kinda cute!” Tempest’s muzzle scrunched up as she turned her head away and growled. Kerfuffle walked up to Tempest, nuzzling herself underneath her chin. “Aww, don’t be all grumpy! I like seeing this side of you! Makes you less scary, ya know?” “Scary, huh?” “Well, yeah. At the start of the month, I barely knew anyone. And look! Now I’m besties with the two of you!” Celaeno looked down at her leg. “And thanks to you, we all have proof of that.” “And I’m sure everyone at the orgy is gonna know.” “Oh, I know it won’t be nearly as fun without you two, but I’ll try to have fun! Just as long as you two don’t miss me too much!” “Don’t worry,” Celaeno nudged Tempest’s side. “I’ll be sure to give her some ‘stress relief’ while you’re gone.” Gallus angrily focused his glare straight ahead of him, yet he could still feel the grins of all his friends barely keeping their laughter inside. They were hardly subtle about it, he could hear the snickering from all sides, and they were hardly disguising their smiles. “...Just get it over with.” Sandbar and Ocellus were the first to start giggling, followed by Yona’s loud guffaws, and finally, a set of snickering from the perpetrators themselves, Silverstream and Smolder. Gallus let out a slow, agitated exhale as he waited out the laughter. “You done?” As most of their laughter died down, Sandbar was the only one still pounding the table. “Waitwaitholdon!” He wheezed, holding out his hoof as he went facedown. “HAHAAAAAAAAA!” Gallus impatiently drummed his fingers against the table as Sandbar was left in near-silent hysterics, his body trembling with constant breathy laughs. Every time it seemed like the laughter was done, he found another wind and the laughter started all over. “I get it, dude!” Gallus snarled. “Alright, alright!” Sandbar picked his head up, still wheezing out a few laughs. “I’m sorry!” he said with a clear insincerity behind his apology. “Whatever,” Gallus rolled his eyes. “I hope you and Silverstream have a great time…” Smolder leaned back, throwing her feet up on the table. “Well, it wouldn’t have been the same without Ocellus anyway…” “And I wouldn’t have liked it nearly as much without Tempest,” Gallus begrudgingly admitted. “Yeah I know, that’s why we stepped on ya.” Silverstream leaned forward, “Oooh, I wonder what I should do first? Or who I should do first? There’s Professor Fluttershy, Professor Dash, Professor Dash’s mom, Kerfuffle-” “Waitwaitwait,” Ocellus interrupted. “You’re interested in Professor Dash’s MOM?” “Mmhm! Turns out she’s super cool too!” Silverstream said matter-of-factly. “Yona wish she not lose so early!” Yona pouted. “Yona letting new buffalo friend down.” Sandbar lovingly patted Yona’s hoof. “Don’t worry, Yona. I’ll make sure she’s happy on your behalf.” “Before or after Celestia?” Yona teased. Little Strongheart ran through the Appleloosan orchard, going at a full sprint before skidding to a stop once she saw the two stallions she was looking for underneath the shade. “I’m not interrupting anything, am I, lovebirds?” Braeburn sat down against the trunk of one of the apple trees, with Feather Bangs laid across his lap. “Oh! Hey sweetheart!” Braeburn waved, his other hoof running through the other stallion’s mane. “Did you, uh, need something?” Feather Bangs asked. Strongheart walked up to the two, amusedly shaking her head. “Just wanted to make sure you weren’t getting up to too much fun without me.” Feather Bangs perked his head up. “You sure that you’re alright with…this?” He cycled between pointing his hoof between himself, Strongheart, and Braeburn. “I’d hate to ruin whatever good thing you two had going before me.” Little Strongheart stroked her chin. “Did you still mean all those things you told me weeks ago? Getting to know me and getting close to me?” “Every word.” Feather Bangs solemnly put a hoof to his chest. “I would never lie to a pretty face.” “Well there you have it,” she smiled, pointing a hoof at Braeburn. “Just try not to hog him too much.” “C’mon, sweetheart,” Braeburn chuckled. “Can’t blame him if I’m just so irresistible, can ya?” “No, I guess not,” Little Strongheart sighed, playfully rolling her eyes. “I can blame him for being so cute you had to have him immediately.” Both of them watched Feather Bangs’s cheeks light up red as he sputtered and scrambled to his hooves to try and defend himself. All the way in Manehattan, Cozy Glow opened up a fridge, grabbed a can of soda, and immediately guzzled down half of it in quick succession. “Wow, this stuff tastes different when you’re actually allowed to take it.” “What, you’re not allowed to drink soda or something?” Babs asked incredulously. “Nah, it’s just usually never my soda I’m drinking.” Babs amusedly chuckled, hopping onto the sofa. “Can’t believe the month’s almost ovah…” “Tch, I can!” Cozy rolled her eyes, joining Babs on the couch. “This month felt like it took forever!”  “Well, we were pretty busy doing a lotta things, weren’t we?” “Heh, yeah…” Cozy smirked in self-satisfaction. “Sometimes it kinda sucks that the Crusaders are more interested in making others lose than actually winning, though.” Babs looked off to the side. “Would be nice to not focus on sabotage for once…” Cozy gasped and looked at Babs like she had just committed an unspeakable offense. “Woah, are you saying you wanna STOP sabotaging others?” “I didn’t say ‘stop’, I just thought it’d be nice to actually win one of these things! Is it so wrong dat I wanna taste victory?” “But…all those plans! If not us, who’s gonna take them out?” “Eh, s’far as I can see, they can do it just fine on their own,” Babs shrugged. “I mean, those dragons got themselves out and we didn’t even talk to any of ‘em dis year.” Cozy reluctantly shrugged. “Yeah, even Discord taking Twilight out feels like a boring victory if he just gets high off his ass and loses right after.” “Month’s probably a lot easier when ya ain’t trying to work through so many plans and getting desperate for stress relief, too,” Babs added. Cozy leaned on Babs’s shoulder, practically clinging onto the mare. “But the scheming is so much fun!” “I’m not sayin’ it ain’t, and it’s not like I’m never sabotagin’ again,” Babs reassured. “Just wanna focus on other things next time.” “Hmmph…fine…” Babs lifted up Cozy’s chin to look her in the eyes with a mischievous smirk. “Sides, if you’re thinking about nothin’ but how to get others to cum on our dates, Imma start getting jealous.” > Day 30: Heart's Pounding > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Though the skies were dark as midnight approached, the Crystal Castle was alight with excited conversation and cheering. The room everyone gathered in had plenty of pillows and mattresses for comfort, and sex toys galore for pleasure. “Ten minutes until midnight, everyone! Congrats on making it!” Cadence announced to the massive room filled with all the winners. As her voice echoed throughout the crystalline walls and thankfully not past the soundproofed doors, the chatter got louder, one could practically hear the desperation and relief dripping from all the voices inside. Chrysalis, however, was more interested in the walls of the room than the others inside of it. She kept walking around the perimeter, methodically knocking her hoof against different spots on the walls she deemed suspicious. “...Is it even worth asking?” Cozy asked, shaking her head. “I am telling you, there’s a secret room somewhere! There’s gotta be another entrance!” Chrysalis insisted. “It’s a giant room full of string and photographs of all of us! She planned this whole thing!” Cozy looked at Chrysalis with bewilderment. “Yeah, we all know she planned the whole thing, she’s the host!” “You don’t get it!” Chrysalis growled. “I know what I saw, and I’ll prove it! I just need to find it again…” Cozy took a brief look out of the window at the moon. “We are less than ten minutes away from a night’s worth of sex. Unless you plan on humping the walls like a freak, why don’t you go get ready to suck someone off or whatever it is you do?” “Fine, but when her evil schemes get unearthed, you’re the first I’m saying ‘I told you so’ to!” “I’d say that you need to get laid, but that’s literally the whole point of being here…” Windy Whistles was quick to pull her daughter into a rib-crushing hug. “Ooooh, look at us, Dashie! Both winners this year!” “Hhhgkkk! Y-Yep…Thanks, mom!” Rainbow Dash choked out. “Oooh, so many winners!” Windy said as she ogled around the room. “I wonder what I should do for my first time…Oh, what did you do, Rainbow?” “Mom…” “I mean, there’s Princess Celestia over there. Do I go for her first so we can get our pent-up horniness out with each other, or should I save her for last? “Mommmm…” “Unless you wanna have a go at her first, sweetie! Ooh, that’ll be fun, I get to watch you having sex with Princess Celestia!” “Mom.” “Yes, Dashie?” Dash glanced over to Thorax, who only looked back and raised an eyebrow. “Damnit…” she grumbled, taking a deep breath. “Mom, I know you’re excited for tonight, and I know you’re really happy that we both made it. But please, can you not do something embarrassing? No cheering for me while I’m in a threesome, no chants as I’m eating somepony out, just…I really wanna enjoy tonight, so…please?” “Of course, sweetie!” Windy answered almost immediately. “I know that’s a lot to ask-wait really just like that?” Rainbow turned her head so fast she nearly gave herself whiplash. “Yeah! I’ll always respect your wishes, Rainbow!” Windy planted a kiss on her cheek. “If you wanna have fun tonight on your own, I’ll make sure it stays that way!” “...Huh…” Rainbow Dash was stunned, but pleasantly surprised at how painless and easy that whole process was. “Thanks, mom.” “Why, did you think I was gonna go a full month without clopping just to be your cheerleader all night?” Windy clapped her hooves and rubbed them together. “Ohohoho no, I’ve got needs.” Rainbow’s eyes quickly shifted from side to side. “Uhhh…” “Now if you’ll excuse me, dear, momma’s gonna be busy!” At the back of the room was the familiar display case of all the miniature crystal hearts, albeit with some drastic changes to several of them after the events of the month. Almost everyone present was seeing them for the first time since the start of the game, and it was quite an entertaining sight to notice all the notable differences. “Heeheehee, look at Gallus’s face!” Silverstream giggled, pointing to one of the hearts showing Gallus’s head now being sandwiched between Silverstream’s hoof and Smolder’s foot. “Yyyep, that looks like Discord’s doing alright…” Velvet tsked, looking at the hornless Twilight’s face. “Cadence is definitely bringing that up at Hearth’s Warming…” Kerfuffle looked at two of the hearts with a wistful sigh. At least they looked happy going out. Tempest sure did, at least. She tried to push those negative thoughts of longing to the side, distracting herself with the sight of the other eliminations. “...Is that Feather Bangs?” “Mmhm!” Twilight Velvet nodded. “Poor stallion was so flustered when he talked to me and Windy. Doesn’t look like he’s shy about getting it on with Braeburn, though!” “Oh yeah, he got real nervous when he was talking to me, too,” Kerfuffle nodded. “Strangest thing. He was a pretty smooth talker up until I mentioned Celaeno and Tempest though…” “Maybe he was just worried your two mega-tough girlfriends were gonna beat him up,” Silverstream suggested. “...That would explain quite a bit…” The three returned to looking at the crystal hearts, it was almost surprising how only half of them were the same. “Woah, look at those three going at it!” Kerfuffle pointed to the trio of dragons. Though they only saw parts of what happened in the hearts, the differently colored dragon parts invading in the others was enough to paint a pretty good picture. Silverstream looked over to the heart with her own face inside it. Just her making a fairly generic, happy, but not too excited smile, then glanced over back to Gallus’s, blissed out of his mind from being toyed with. “What do you think is gonna happen to ours after tonight?” “Guess we’re gonna find out soon!” Velvet winked. Sandbar and Little Strongheart glanced at each other, awkwardly shuffling their hooves against the floor. Both of them had a plan early in the month, but it felt empty without their partners joining them. “So…um…Yona told me a lot about you, Little Strongheart!” Sandbar said, trying to get the conversation rolling. “Oh yeah, like…what?” she asked with a slight smile. “Well, the fact that you’re really headstrong and tough and fast, but also that you’re really nice, too! Yona said that you were the “best buffalo she ever met”!” “I’m pretty sure I’m the only buffalo she’s ever met,” she said, rolling her eyes with a smile. “Hey, still counts.” Strongheart giggled. “Well, Yona told me a lot about you too! And so did your friend Gallus!” “I really hope it was all good things…” Sandbar said with a rising dread in his voice. “There was stuff about how cute you are, how dependable you are, how easy going you are, how you’re always looking out for everyone, how you like your lovers to be big…That last one-” “-was Gallus,” Sandbar said at the same time, nodding with mild annoyance. “I figured.” “Well, I know I’m not as big as Yona, I hope that’s not a dealbreaker for you…” Strongheart teased. “Haha, I’ll survive,” Sandbar chuckled. “You know, Yona really wanted to see how much endurance you have. I wouldn’t mind telling her myself.” Little Strongheart smirked and started to lean on the stallion. “And from what I saw from Yona, I assume you must have plenty of endurance yourself.” The two shared a moment, though a cloud of regret still lingered. “I still wish Braeburn and Yona were here, too,” Little Strongheart rubbed her neck. “You would’ve loved Braeburn.” Sandbar nodded empathetically. “I bet. What’s he like?” “Oh, he’s sweet, funny, enthusiastic…” Little Strongheart gushed. “Sounds like my kind of pony!” “...And he has a habit of…attracting stallions.” Sandbar paused and tilted his head, equal parts confused and intrigued. Strongheart sighed. “Well, no use dwelling on it.” “Yeah, we can still enjoy tonight all by ourselves!” Both their gazes started to wander. Sandbar’s to Chrysalis still knocking on the walls, Little Strongheart’s to Thorax chatting with Harshwhinny. “Okay, I might have a really crazy idea…” “Me too…” “So, Miss Harshwhinny, have you decided on what you wanted to do first?” Thorax asked. “We’ve only got a few minutes left, after all.” “Surprisingly, no, Mister Thorax,” Harshwhinny replied. “Though I do have some appointments, my initial plans with Miss Hugger and Mister Bangs have been canceled.” “Yeah, I know how that feels…” Thorax nodded sadly. “And yet, it’s…exhilarating!” she said, a bright smile on her face. “Perhaps it’s the heat talking, but being in this room with so many ponies waiting to ravish me…Oh I feel so excited!” Seeing Harshwhinny act genuinely giddy caught Thorax off guard. “Well, would it be alright if I had a turn ravishing you?” “Oh yes, of course! I was hoping to see you and Mister Armor prove yourselves.” Harshwhinny put a hoof on the changeling’s chest. “I do hope you’re feeling creative, Mister Thorax…” “Don’t get too excited just yet,” A voice teased from afar. Miss Harshwhinny cleared her throat and took a step away from Thorax. “Ah, Princess Celestia, Miss Shy, it’s good to see you.” “It’s lovely to see you and Thorax as well,” Celestia smiled. “We were interrupting some foreplay?” “Ahaha, not exactly,” Thorax nervously laughed. “We were just talking about how many were excited to be with Miss Harshwhinny tonight!” “Oh, I can imagine!” Fluttershy nodded. “I know Rainbow Dash has been just itching for her turn.” “I assume you have quite the queue lined up yourself, Princess?” Harshwhinny asked. “Oh yes, but I’m sure I’ll manage,” Celestia giggled, wrapping a wing around Fluttershy. “I was just talking with Fluttershy about her turn. It’s something she’s wanted for quite a while, and Shining Armor will be assisting me…” Just the mere mention was enough to make Fluttershy squeak and turn red, which piqued the other two’s interests. “Two royals at once? Miss Shy, you naughty dog, you!” Harshwhinny smirked. “You think there’s room for me?” Thorax asked. “I mean, I’m kinda in high demand, but I’d love to help out!” Celestia looked down at the flustered mare. “Only if it’s alright with Fluttershy. Though I doubt you’ll hear any objections from her about an extra pair of hooves” she mused. “Or claws, or wings…” “Ohdear…” As midnight drew near, Shining repeatedly prodded Cadence’s side, waggling his eyebrows. “Wellll?” Cadence didn’t even have to look to know there was a self-satisfied smirk on her husband’s face. “Fiiiine, the Chastity Shield works.” “There now, was that so difficult to say?” “Just shut it and start the unlocking spell with me before we start…” “Of course, hon.” Shining puffed out his chest, stroking his shaft in a pre-victory celebration. “Another win for the ol’ tried and true…” Cadence audibly shuddered as she felt another stroking feeling at her nethers. “Another spasm?” Shining Armor asked, immediately concerned. “Yeah! I don’t know why it-” Cadence paused, eying Shining’s hoof as it went up and down his shaft, feeling the same up and down motions on herself. She took the tip of her hoof, and slowly started to rub her clit in small circles. Shining felt an immediate tingle at his cockhead the moment Cadence started to touch herself. The couple stared at each other in a stunned silence, watching their partner’s hoof as they played with themselves, feeling a similar tingling on their own body. “...Fuuuuuck, that explains SO much.” Shining Armor smacked his forehead in embarrassment. “All those times I thought I was going crazy, it was actually…” Cadence’s mouth hung open in disbelief, before a little snicker went past her lips, then a giggle. Shining found himself laughing along with Cadence, the two of them laughing over how absurdly simple the explanation to their problems was. “Well, guess we figured out why,” Shining chuckled. “Shall we unlock?” “Let’s!” The couple’s horns glowed once more with magical energy as they leaned their heads forward just enough that only the tips of their horns touched. Their magic flowed from their horn into the body of the other pony, converging at their loins. Despite all the magical energy being focused, it didn’t feel particularly erotic. As the chastity spell unlocked, their bodies felt freed, like a long stretch after sitting still for hours. The two opened their eyes, satisfied that the spell worked so easily. “Almost time, dear.” “Then let’s not keep them waiting any longer.” Cadence addressed the room once more. “Alright, winners! Get ready, there’s only a few seconds left!” Everyone in the room scrambled to get into position, the sexual tension hitting an all-time high. “TEN! NINE!” Rainbow Dash licked her lips. “EIGHT! SEVEN! SIX!” Miss Harshwhinny preemptively unbuttoned her suit jacket. “FIVE! FOUR!” Kerfuffle and Windy Whistles started dancing in place. “THREE! TWO!” Thorax and Chrysalis both felt a pair of hooves grabbing them by the waist, tugging them backwards. “ONE!” > The Orgy > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- As soon as the countdown ended, Kerfuffle squealed and reached for whoever was closest, pulling them into a long, intense kiss. Shining Armor softly laughed as she finally pulled back. “You know that countdown wasn’t for New Year’s, right?” Kerfuffle started blushing profusely thanks to what she impulsively did and who she did it with. “Oh! Right! I-I knew that! Haha, silly me! I just got all excited and it’s my first time and…ah…oh gosh you look so hot right now.” “Well? What are you waiting for? We’ve got all night to-” Before Shining could finish his sentence, Kerfuffle already tackled him onto one of the beds, unwilling to wait a single second longer to bask in her reward. Kerfuffle in her arousal was a bit clumsy as she tried to position herself, her hooves occasionally slipping off Shining’s chest. She didn’t want to hurt herself going in, given how hard and long Shining was, but every second that went by was another second that was spent not screwing. Shining laid on his back, waiting until Kerfuffle finally started easing herself in. His heart started to pound as she started to take in his cock inch by inch. “Ah…! I can’t believe I get to do this!” Kerfuffle gushed, gradually taking it all in before gently pushing on Shining’s chest to raise back up. “I’m actually having sex with a prince!” Shining couldn’t help but snort at that comment. “Nngh, is my status really the most attractive part of me? I always thought it’d be my muscles or the length of my dick…” Kerfuffle immediately covered up her face with her hooves, her wings flaring up to try and cover more of her shame. “Nononono that’s not what I meant! It’s just that you’re married and all and this is just a really special opportunity and-” “Easy, easy!” Shining said, trying to reassure her. “I’m just teasing ya.” Kerfuffle lowered her wings and peeked past her hooves. “O-Oh…” “Sorry, I know this is a big moment for you,” he said with a warm smile. “I just thought you’d enjoy it more if you weren’t so worked up.” Kerfuffle rubbed the back of her neck, a few nervous laughs escaping her lips. “Ah…ahaha…r-right…” “If you want, I can just shut up for the rest of the time while you ride me,” Shining smirked. “Nononono!” Kerfuffle rapidly shook her head. “Don’t zip your lip on my behalf! I think your voice is really sexy!” “Well, keep going and you can hear more of it!” Shining winked, putting his hooves on Kerfuffle’s flanks. Kerfuffle shuddered, putting her hooves back on Shining’s shoulders. “Ohhhh gosh! A-Alright, here we go!” The pegasus started slowly raising herself, getting right up to Shining’s flared tip before coming back down onto his thighs. “Nnngh…ah! Y-Yeah, just like that!” Shining grunted, still holding onto Kerfuffle’s flanks to give her support. “Ah! Nnnnf! Been a while…since I took something this big!” Kerfuffle panted, still trying to ease herself into the up and down rhythms. Shining noticed her attempts to speed things up, leading to a few awkward hoof fumbles and struggles to keep her hooves on him. “You don’t have to rush things…ah! You’re doing just fine right now…” Kerfuffle scoffed at the notion. “You kidding? I’ve been waiting a whole month!” She leaned forward, wincing slightly as she brought her flank down. “I need this!” Kerfuffle was practically breathing down Shining’s neck. He could see the sweat already dripping down her forehead, and feel her flank pounding harder against his hips. “Hah…I can tell you’re real excited!” “And I can tell you’ve been needing this just as much as I have!” Kerfuffle grunted. She pressed her muzzle up against Shining’s, not quite kissing him again, but getting dangerously close. “You’re just…huge…and throbbing!” Shining wrapped his hooves around Kerfuffle’s back as he huffed. “Y-Yeah…and you’re just…woah!” His eyes widened as he felt the mare getting faster and faster. “Y-You’re really going at it!” Once Kerfuffle had found her groove, her movements got a lot smoother. She was able to take on Shining’s full length with no problem, and it gave her the confidence to pick up the speed. “Ohhh yeah! That’s the stuff!” Shining moaned with pleasure, breathing just as heavily as Kerfuffle was. “S-So, are you gonna do something besides make all those sexy moans? Or am I gonna do all the hard work?” Kerfuffle asked, trying to get a teasing chuckle out past her panting. Smirking at Kerfuffle’s cheeky comment, Shining put his hooves behind Kerfuffle’s head and neck, giving her just a little bit of a push to lock lips again. For just a moment, Kerfuffle paused mid-bounce as she felt Shining armor’s lips press up against hers, but quickly got back into the groove. She felt tingles running through her body as Shining made out with her. Shining could feel the mare moaning into his mouth, her voice wavering with each bounce. His hoof gently stroked her soft mane from behind as he started to thrust into her to match her bouncing. Kerfuffle’s wings spread out wide as she shuddered. Her legs started to kick out to the sides as the humping added an additional layer of pleasure. It was hard to keep locking lips with Shining as she was screaming with pleasure. Shining was moaning as well, though not nearly to the same magnitude Kerfuffle was. Even with his eyes closed, he could match up with the mare’s body to thrust as deep inside of her as possible. When Shining finally broke away, Kerfuffle figured he also needed a moment to breathe. But when she opened her eyes, she briefly saw Shining at the base of her neck. “OHHHH GOSH!” Shining gently teased his current partner by softly nibbling and kissing her neck, and going up to intentionally make sultry moans in her ear. Kerfuffle felt all her hair stand up on end. “Ah! I-I don’t think I can-! I’M GONNA-!” The pegasus shuddered, unable to finish her sentence as she slammed her flank down in pure orgasmic bliss. The last slam finally made Shining Armor fire off. A loud, powerful cry left his lips as he unloaded his cum into the mare until it started leaking out of her.  As the two hit their climax, the display of crystal hearts did a familiar song and dance. Similar to the eliminations from the past month, the hearts with Shining Armor’s and Kerfuffle’s faces levitated and spun, changing their reflected images to show the moment of climax. Though unlike the hearts with those not present, their crystals had a sparkling radiance to them, a proud afterglow to celebrate their victory. Kerfuffle’s hooves finally gave out as she collapsed on top of Shining. “Whew! What a rush! I never thought winning would feel this good!” Shining softly chuckled. “And we have a whole night ahead of us...” Cozy watched Chrysalis get dragged away, leaving the mare seemingly without a partner, until she felt a claw grabbing onto her hoof, yanking her in a different direction. “Heeey, Cozy!” Silverstream grinned. “Look what I got!” The hippogriff showed off a box filled with sex toys of all kinds, containing dildos, vibrators, lube, paddles, hoofcuffs, rings and so much more. “...Wow,” Cozy said, legitimately intrigued by the sheer variety of stuff. “After you let me borrow all your stuff last year, I was inspired to get my own collection!” Silverstream beamed with pride. “Neat, right?” Cozy briefly leafed through some of Silverstream’s belongings, some of the things she had were actually impressive. They were notably less used than all the stuff she had stolen from Pinkie and Trixie. “Yeah, this is…a lot of cool stuff!” Silverstream smiled through a heavy sigh. “Yeah, I wanted to share these with the rest of my friends, but…uh…it didn’t quite work out! Eheh…” Silverstream couldn’t even be that mad at Cozy. Sure, Yona’s elimination was partially the pegasus’s fault, but then again, Gallus is partially out because of her. “There’s still Sandbar left, but I’m probably not getting to him until he has his fun with Celestia. So maybe…you could help me go through some of these tonight?” Cozy Glow chuckled and shrugged. “Yeah sure, sounds fun!” “Great!” Silverstream nudged the box towards Cozy. “You can pick what we use!” Cozy rummaged through the box of goodies, eventually pulling out a bright purple, long, toy that was phallic on both ends. “Yeesh, is this double-sided?” “Uhuh!” “...Yeah alright, let’s do it.” One generous slathering of lube later, Silverstream was holding it in her hands, trying to make sure it didn’t slip onto the floor. Cozy clenched her teeth and winced now that she was about to feel it inside her. “It’s so long, how are you even supposed to fit half of it in a pony that’s not princess-sized?” “Dunno, maybe that’s part of the challenge!” Silverstream shrugged. “You ready?” Cozy reluctantly sighed, turning around to spread her legs. “Do it. I’ve been waiting a whole month for this!” Silverstream grinned. “So have I!” Thanks to the lube, Cozy’s end went in with relative ease and rather quickly, though Cozy’s hooves nearly buckling underneath her didn’t help Silverstream with putting it in smoothly. “Ohhhhh fuck!” Hearing Cozy’s immediate reaction made Silverstream more excited. She turned around, lining herself up with the pegasus, and held onto the middle to help guide herself onto the other end, giving off a similar reaction. “Wooooaah that’s good!” Cozy was barely keeping herself standing up with her front hooves. Just feeling the dildo inside of her was making her feel lightheaded. “A-Alright, you ready to do this?” “Oh, I was BORN ready!” With a few shaky exhales, both of them started to sway, leaning forward and then backwards, sliding further down onto the dildo until their flanks met halfway. The first time drew out shaky gasps and trembling hooves from the two, staying in that position where the toy was as far as it could be at the moment. The pleasure was practically paralyzing. Though the initial high eventually wore off, and they leaned forward to go back once more. Cozy and Silverstream were still fairly out of sync, one of them kept moving back before the other one, meaning one would take slightly more of the dildo than the other. Neither of them seemed to mind that one of them was getting the short end each time. The length was enough to satisfy them regardless, and the lube was doing wonders in making sure that they kept the flow going. Cozy Glow shuddered, trying to remain composed as she rocked back and forth. But each thrust her hips made caused her to lose a little bit of control of herself. Silverstream, meanwhile, was losing herself to the pleasure. She was already drooling in ecstasy with each butt bump. The feeling was addicting, and she found herself wanting more. But with size not being a changeable variable, the only other option was speed. The two were already out of sync, but Silverstream’s neediness made it a much bumpier ride for Cozy. “Hey! C-C’mon! At least warn me before ya go faster!” She yelled, trying her best to catch up. “S-Sorry! Just! So! Goooooood!” Cozy clenched her teeth, trying to match Silverstream’s ever-increasing speed, swinging her flank back and forth, thrusting onto the dildo and smacking her flank with Silverstream’s. “Hnngh! Fuck!” “Ahhh! Yes! Yessss! Give it! To! Me!” Silverstream squealed. Her movements finally matched up with Cozy, meeting at the halfway point with each thrust. Cozy felt more and more of her inhibitions being released the longer she continued. Her head felt hazy with pleasure. Though now that they were finally getting into a rhythm, Cozy could focus more on the erotic thrill rather than trying to match Silverstream’s pace. Just as Silverstream was about to close her eyes, she gasped and stopped thrusting. “Oh oh oh wait! I forgot something!” “Rrrrgh, are you KIDDING ME?!” Cozy growled, turning her head to look behind her. “I’m almost there!” “I know I know!” Silverstream hastily apologized. “Just…I forgot this was also a vibrator!” She reached around to the middle of the dildo partially-inserted into both of them, giving the medial ring in the middle a couple of squeezes. “What are you-OHHHHHH!” The wings of both Silverstream and Cozy sprung open in an instant as the dildo started vibrating at a high intensity. Silverstream started pounding the floor, squirming in erotic delight. “AAAAAH IT’S SOOOO GOOOOOD!” Cozy’s hooves were trembling at almost the same frequency as the dildo inside of her. She stretched her hooves out in front of her, trying to push as much of it in as possible. “FUUUUUUUUCK!” The two awkwardly tried to thrust again, but given how close they were and how much work the vibrations were doing, it was hardly needed. Both their climatic cries had a distinct waver to them thanks to the rapid vibrations of their shared toy. It was the kind of thing that would make Silverstream laugh uproariously if she wasn’t being hit with mind-numbing pleasure. Silverstream and Cozy collapsed onto the floor, leaving the dildo to pop out and writhe rapidly on the floor, leaving a puddle of cum and lube between them. And neither of them currently had the energy to turn it off. “Alright, Miss Harshwhinny!” Rainbow Dash said, flying right up in the other mare’s face. “You ready to have your mind blown?” “Well, Miss Dash, I’ve been waiting all month for you to prove yourself,” Harshwhinny said, sticking her nose up with a sly smirk. “I hope it wasn’t all for nothing.” “Save the smack-talk, the only thing I wanna hear out of your mouth next is my name!” Harshwhinny silently shrugged, laying on her back and spreading out her legs. Rainbow Dash put her hooves on Harshwhinny’s inner thighs to keep them spread apart, hungrily licking her lips as she inched closer to the mare’s pussy. Her muzzle got closer and closer, until Dash’s lips pressed up against Harshwhinny’s. Harshwhinny’s body tensed up as she stifled a gasp. She fully expected Rainbow to go full speed at the start. The gentle start was a pleasant surprise. She could feel Dash’s hot breath against her pussy, and waited for her next move. With her muzzle so close to Harshwhinny’s crotch, Dash stuck the tip of her tongue out, slowly circling around her vulva. Ms. Harshwhinny exhaled sharply through her nostrils, a quiet little grunt the only sign of her approval. Dash’s ears flicked, catching onto the other mare getting turned on, even if she was trying her best to hide it. She kept circling her tongue around, getting just a little bit faster on the next lap. “Hnnn…” Try as she might, Harshwhinny couldn’t deny the pleasure that Dash’s tongue was giving her, though she still tried to force her neutral expression for as long as possible. If Rainbow Dash wanted to hear her moaning, she would have to truly earn it. Dash could pick up on the subtle moans that Harshwhinny was trying to hide. She took each little grunt as a push to keep going, to get just a little bit faster with her tongue in order to draw out the next one. The corners of Harshwhinny’s lips twitched as more little gasps and moans escaped. “Nnnn! Ah! Hmmm!” She tilted her head backwards, reluctantly smiling as Dash got to work. Even though her focus was down below, Dash could see Harshwhinny’s faint smile in her peripheral vision. She just had to keep pushing her further and further…  As her tongue came back around, she stopped at the top, right at the clit. Harshwhinny looked down at Rainbow Dash, bracing herself for what she knew was coming. Rainbow Dash glanced up, seeing the anticipation and tension in the mare’s face. She made it a point to show herself licking her lips before diving back down. “A-Aaaaah! Nnngh!” Harshwhinny’s hooves kicked up as Rainbow Dash focused her tongue directly on her clit, causing the mare to shudder with pleasure. Dash put her hooves up a little higher on Harshwhinny’s thighs, making sure that her clit was the prime focus. The tip of her tongue repeatedly flicked against her button, making hungry licks at one of the mare’s most sensitive parts. Ms. Harshwhinny couldn’t stop the moans from spilling out. Each gasp or squeak was a little louder than the last one as Rainbow’s tongue kept lapping against her clit. Dash pulled back for only a brief moment before she went back in for a slow, long lick. She was so close to getting Harshwhinny to crack, she could practically taste it. Ms. Harshwhinny’s cheeks lit up with blush. Rainbow Dash was undeniably good with her tongue, but she was still holding out for the moment when she’d truly lose herself in pleasure. Dash gave Harshwhinny’s pussy another tantalizingly slow lick, making sure that the flat of her tongue was hitting her. Once she reached the top, she gave Harshwhinny’s clit another series of rapid tongue flicks. She kept alternating between the slow laps and the fast licks, transitioning between the two variations seamlessly. “Nnngh! A-Aaah! Oooohhh! Mmmmmm!” Harshwhinny’s hooves trembled with pleasure. The words she knew Rainbow was waiting to hear were caught in her throat, but it was a fight whether she wanted to let them out. With a gleam in her eyes, Dash pressed her muzzle into Harshwhinny’s crotch, pursing her lips to suck on her clit. “AAAH! YES! OHHH MISS DASH YES!” Harshwhiny finally lost control, letting her pleasure ring out freely. “OHHHHH JUST LIKE THAT RAINBOW!” Harshwhinny’s horny squealing was music to Dash’s ears as she kept on suckling on her clit, resisting the urge to pump her hooves victoriously in order to make sure the mare reached a proper orgasm. Harshwhinny sat upright, putting her hooves on Rainbow’s head as she screamed out in ecstatic joy. “AAAAH! THAT’S PERFECT! OHHH RAINBOW DASH!” Rainbow licked the marecum from her lips as she grinned. “I hope that met your expectations, Miss Harshwhinny.” “Oh…you exceeded them, Miss Dash…” Harshwhinny said with a bit of a delirious giggle, before clearing her throat. “Ahem! B-But now it’s only fair that you get your chance at an orgasm.” Dash nodded, already getting on her back. “Heh, go wild!” “Oh, I fully intend to…” Miss Harshwhinny started with a kiss to Rainbow Dash’s lips, before planting one on her cheek, then her neck, down to her chest, gradually working her way down. Rainbow Dash squeaked when Harshwhinny briefly locked lips with her, but each of the following kisses left her gasping and squirming. “I just need a moment to warm up. A taste of what my mouth is capable of doing to you, Miss Dash,” Harshwhinny tittered, spreading out Dash’s legs like she previously did to her. Rainbow Dash was already hot and bothered after an entire month of sexual restraint and eating out Harshwhinny, but those little kisses did wonders at getting her worked up for what she was about to get hit with. Harshwhinny started out slow, only using her lips and hooves to tease her. Giving soft kisses to her inner thighs or rubbing her nose against her labia. Rainbow Dash’s wings twitched at each of the little kisses and nudges. Each little tease made her more needy for Harshwinny to just get on with it. Miss Harshwhinny was willing to give Rainbow Dash the courtesy of not teasing her for too long. She had more than earned this orgasm, after all. Using the flat of her tongue, she took a slow, long lick up her vulva. Since she wasn’t trying to restrain herself, Rainbow Dash was free to voice her pleasure as loud as she liked. “Ohhhhh yeah, that’s the stuff!” Harshwhinny kept her licks slow, but firm. Her tongue applied a fair amount of pressure as she went upwards, backing off so that she just grazed over the clit with the tip of her tongue, though occasionally, she would be kind and give her pearl a quick kiss. Rainbow Dash got shivers every time she felt that kiss. Her wings had spread out to their full, outstretched length as she moaned with ecstasy. “F-Fuck! You’re so good at this!” Harshwhinny chuckled to herself. “Naturally, Miss Dash…” She put her hooves closer on Dash’s inner thighs, slightly spreading her lips apart so that she could slowly slip her tongue in. Dash threw her head back and stomped on the floor on reflex. “Hnnnng! Ohmygosh!” Harshwhinny probed her tongue a little bit deeper into Dash’s folds, keeping her legs spread apart. “Oh fuck oh fuck oh fuck! K-Keep doing that!” Dash cried out. The tips of her wings and her hooves started to twitch and tremble as Harshwhinny lapped away. Wanting to satisfy Dash’s request, Miss Harshwhinny kept giving her the long and slow licks against her inner walls, letting out a few satisfied moans of her own at the taste. Dash’s moans got louder and louder. Even the little vibrations from Harshwhinny’s moaning while her muzzle was inside her felt amazing. Miss Harshwhinny could detect the telltale signs of a mare nearing orgasm, so she decided to pull out her final move. She withdrew for only a second, and took a deep breath. Then she pressed the tip of her tongue against Rainbow Dash’s clit, and started wildly lapping at it. Dash sputtered and trembled at the sudden spike of stimulation. The licks sent electric bolts of pleasure through her whole body, and they kept coming before the pegasus had a chance to even fully process them. Harshwhinny was remarkably consistent in her task, never slowing down or faltering as her tongue did laps around Rainbow’s clit. “FUCKFUCKFUCKI’MGONNAAAAAA!” Rainbow Dash’s wings flapped as she let out a heavy orgasm all over Harshwhinny’s face. Harshwhinny crawled up and pressed her wet muzzle against Rainbow Dash’s. “Exemplary work, Miss Dash. I look forward to our future endeavors.” “Heh, we got all night. Who said we had to stop working together now?” “Well girls? It’s time,” Celestia declared to Windy Whistles and Twilight Velvet. The pegasus grabbed the unicorn by the shoulders, shaking her back and forth. “Ooooh this is so exciting, Velvet! Our first No Clop November orgy! And with Princess Celestia!” “I know, right?!” Velvet squealed, matching Windy’s excited energy. “There’s just so much we can do!” “I know what I’m doing first!” Windy sang, pulling out a fully decorated cake. “I stayed up all night yesterday just so that it’d be as fresh as possible before we got to the Crystal Empire!” Velvet hungrily licked her lips. “Oh, that’s absolutely brilliant and naughty of you, Windy!” “Aw, thanks!” Windy Whistles started beaming with pride. “I’m really excited to have this get licked off me in all the right places!” “I was planning on maybe touching horns with Celestia. Ooh, or working my own personal magic on her!” “Gosh, I’m just so happy that we get to be with Celestia first! I wonder if I should start smearing this on my face already…” “Ladies? Instead of talking about what you want to do tonight, how about we actually do them?” Princess Celestia teased, having heard their entire conversation. The other two mares blushed and giggled sheepishly. “Now then, I assume that my mouth will be occupied with Windy, which leaves the rest of me free for whatever you have in mind, Velvet!” Celestia mused. “I hope that arrangement satisfies you both…” Windy Whistles flapped her wings, getting enough air to smooch Princess Celestia on the lips. “Oh, I’m more than fine with that!” “Well then, you better get going, Windy,” Celestia giggled. “I’m feeling awfully hungry right now…” With an excited squeal, Windy sat down on the floor, a slice of the cake in her hooves. She pressed her face against the butterscotch-covered confection. Not enough to completely ruin it, but enough to smear the frosting and bits of the cake all over her cheek and lips. She placed the rest on her stomach and laid back. Celestia’s head bowed down, looking over the mare with a knowing smile on her face. “Oh Windy, you naughty girl, now I’ll have to clean all that up…” Windy trembled as she saw Celestia’s face getting closer and closer. She lifted her head off the floor, unwilling to wait any longer to meet Celestia’s lips. The kiss was brief, as Celestia quickly moved on to more pecks and licks on her cheeks, but for those few seconds, Windy felt like she was in heaven. The taste of Celestia’s lips mixing in with the butterscotch frosting and the moist cake made her feel like she was going to cum right there. As Celestia was busy nibbling and kissing Windy, Velvet was preparing to do the same to Celestia. The unicorn walked up to the princess’s rear, already at eye-level to see her winking. She put her hooves on her flanks, and moved her face closer, giving Celestia’s vulva a few practice licks.  Celestia let out a hum of pleasure as she felt Velvet start to work. She kept her tail raised up high to help give her easier access. She gave Windy another kiss on the cheek before working her way down, giving her gentle nibbles on the neck. The pegasus giggled and squeaked, squirming on the crystal floor as her cheeks were now covered in a heavy blush instead of a light frosting. Velvet kept giving Celestia’s marehood slow licks, holding onto her flanks tenderly as she used the flat of her tongue to go up either side of her lips. Celestia got to Windy’s chest, restraining herself enough to take only a small bite of cake off her. “Mmmh! Another fantastic cake, Windy. You truly know your way into my heart.” “O-Oooh, thank you, Princess! I-aaaah!” Windy’s gushing was interrupted by Celestia planting going straight for her inner thighs. She felt the alicorn’s tongue very gently teasing her. “Nnnf…I-I haven’t even put any cake there yet…” Velvet let out a quiet moan as she pressed her muzzle against Celestia’s crotch. The hold she had on Celestia’s butt was more like a full on hug at this point. With Celestia eating out Windy, and Velvet eating out Celestia, that left Velvet the only mare unattended to. It was impossible to have Windy move to help Velvet out in her current position. Luckily, Celestia’s magic went to work instead. As Celestia’s horn started to glow, Velvet started to feel tingly down below. She didn’t want to pull away from Celestia’s crotch to look, though she had a good feeling she knew what was happening. She was more than familiar with the feeling of magic being used to stimulate her. Windy smeared some of the cake on her crotch as a way to direct Celestia where to lick. Even the little kisses and tongue flicks on her inner thighs were enough to make her gasp and moan, feeling like she was already on the edge of an orgasm. Celestia’s magic enveloped Velvet’s entire pussy. Though it was much more than just a general stimulation over her crotch. She could feel her lips being spread apart, her folds being rubbed and stroked with a precision far greater than hooves or mouth. The unicorn buried her mouth into Celestia’s pussy, muffling her moans. It took quite a bit of work to eat the cake off Windy’s body and use her magic to stimulate Velvet from behind, all while the latter was busy moaning into her, but Celestia handled the multitasking with ease. Even as she was moaning and gasping alongside them, she was handling the pleasure almost seamlessly. Not that Velvet wasn’t putting in work to pleasure her. The way she held onto her flanks and sucked and kissed her clit was fantastic, provided she wasn’t moaning in pleasure into her muff nearly half the time. “OH SWEET CELESTIA YES!” Windy screamed as Celestia took a long, hungry lick up her pussy. Most of the cake slice had been eaten up, and the princess was alternating between getting the remaining crumbs, and pleasuring Windy directly. Velvet felt Celestia’s magic penetrated deeper inside her, causing her to squeeze Celestia’s haunches tight, greedily sucking her clit. Celestia tensed up. The taste of butterscotch frosting on Windy Whistles plus the increasing intensity of Velvet’s suckling and groping made her hooves shake. She closed her eyes and started going at Windy’s marehood with wilder licks. Windy put her hooves to her cheeks. “OH GOSH! OH GOSH! I-I CAN’T! IT’S SO GOOOOOOD!” Velvet felt her inner walls being pumped, her vulva being stroked, even her clit being kissed. Her entire body started to tremble due to the overwhelming pleasure she was receiving. Celestia let out breathy gasps, finding it more difficult to multitask as Velvet groped her flanks and kissed her inner walls. She concentrated hard to keep going, determined to not lose momentum for the sake of the other two mares. With satisfied squeals and moans, the three reached their climaxes together, with Windy’s wings spread out and Velvet collapsing to the floor, leaving Celestia barely still standing. “Whew! I missed that feeling!” Celestia said, already back and full of energy. “Fantastic technique there, Velvet, and you really nailed that butterscotch, Windy!” “Ehehe, t-thank you, Celestia,” Windy giggled. “Though there’s still plenty of cake left, did you want more?” “How could I possibly say no to a second slice?” Windy held another slice in her hooves. “Well, if you insist!” There was a moment of hesitation in her eyes as her heart skipped a beat. She immediately flew up, pressing the cake against Celestia’s face. The alicorn reeled back in shock. “W-Windy? What are you-” “Oh look at that! I’m such a klutz! Better clean that up!” Without hesitation, Windy grabbed Celestia by the cheeks, pulling her in for a kiss. Pomf! As Velvet stood back up. Windy was taking Celestia down to the floor. “Hey, no hogging the princess all to yourself!” Meanwhile, Rainbow Dash and Harshwhinny were in the middle of a particularly steamy makeout session, with Dash peppering Harshwhinny’s neck and cheeks with some kisses. But something caught the eye of the pegasus in her peripheral vision, and she had to look. She turned her head to see Windy had pinned Celestia to the floor, tenderly making love to her. “Holy shit, go mom!” Cadence sidled up next to Fluttershy. “Excited for your turn with my husband and Celestia, Fluttershy?” she gently teased. Fluttershy squeaked and blushed. “Um…a bit, yes…” Cadence looked over to Kerfuffle riding Shining, then to Celestia getting licked and nibbled by Velvet and Windy. “Well, seems like that might take a while. Do you mind having some fun with me in the meantime?” “Oh, I’d love that very much!” “Perfect!” Cadence lifted Fluttershy’s chin up to have the pegasus look her in the eyes. “Why don’t you take the lead, then?” “M-Me?” Fluttershy’s eyes widened. “Are you sure?” “Of course!” Cadence smiled warmly. “I want you to do whatever your heart desires with me. Even that.” Fluttershy laughed nervously. “Well, it doesn’t have to be just that…There’s some other things I really wanted to do tonight…” “Well then, mind showing me?” Fluttershy tapped her hooves together, before unfurling her wings. She put one of them out in front of her body, suggestively rubbing the top of her wing between her hooves. Cadence’s eyes lit up, fluffing up her own wings. “Ohhhh! It has been a while since I got a good wing massage…” Both of them got into comfortable positions on the floor, lying on their stomachs, heads near the other one’s torso to have the best access to the outstretched wings. Fluttershy made the first move. She held Cadence’s wing between her hooves, slowly making little circles as she rubbed the tops of the princess’s wing. Cadence let out a satisfied hum as she reciprocated, taking Fluttershy’s wing and softly stroking her hoof through the feathers. Fluttershy could feel chills going down her spine. The rest of her body shivered as her hooves worked their way to the tip of Cadence’s wing. As Fluttershy’s hoof made it to her primary feathers, Cadence tilted her head back and shuddered. She brushed her hoof across the middle of Fluttershy’s wing, neatly smoothing over any out of place feathers. “Hnn…” Once Fluttershy made it to the tip of Cadence’s wing, she made her way back to the base, kneading her hooves against the delicate bend and coverts as she went. “Ah!” Cadence let out a gasp, her other wing flaring up with delight. “You’re…surprisingly good at this, Fluttershy! Where’d you learn to rub wings like that?” “Ehehe, thanks…” Fluttershy sheepishly giggled. “Rainbow Dash gave me plenty of practice. Her wings were always sore after all those intense training exercises she did, so I pretty much had to learn how to do it myself in order to help her out.” “Ohhh! I can tell you learned a lot!” Cadence groaned. “It’s like you’re taking away stress I didn’t even know was there!” Now that Cadence brought it up, Fluttershy was starting to notice all the little spots on Cadence’s wings that were stiff. At least, stiff in a way that wasn’t due to arousal. When she applied just a little more pressure to those spots, Cadence let out another moan. Even though only her wings were being touched and attended to, Cadence was getting notably turned on, already feeling like she was on the verge of her first climax of the night. She was planning on saving this for the end, but she needed to do something to properly reciprocate. She pulled Fluttershy’s wing closer and started nibbling on the top of her wing. “Eeeep!” Fluttershy squeaked, her other wing immediately springing up. The gentle nibbling against her wing made Fluttershy jolt with pleasure every time Cadence gently bit down. Cadence continued to preen Fluttershy, nibbling across the top of Fluttershy’s wing, making sure to lighten up on the pressure as she made her way to her wingtips, practically given them kisses. “Aaaah! Ohhhh…T-That feels so niiiiiice…” As Cadence ran her teeth through her feathers, Fluttershy found it harder to concentrate on getting all the knots out of the princess’s wing. She pressed her hooves into a particularly stiff spot, gradually applying more and more pressure. “Hnnnngh! Ah! YES!” Cadence moaned into Fluttershy’s feathers. She held up Fluttershy’s wing, moving her lips closer to the base of her wing again, applying more and more pressure to push Fluttershy’s arousal. Fluttershy’s hooves started to tremble. She could feel the tension building up in her loins the closer Cadence got to the base of her wing. As the nibbling got more intense, so did her arousal. She moved her hooves in circles on Cadence’s stiff wing, still applying consistent pressure. “Aaaahn!” Cadence’s head was close enough that she was practically moaning in Fluttershy’s ear. Just as Fluttershy thought that Cadence was too stunned by the pleasure, she felt a long, slow lick from her tongue. One that made her arch her back and squeal. Cadence started licking and kissing the spot right between Fluttershy’s wings. It was a relatively small spot, but it was certainly a sweet spot. Fluttershy’s mind was turning into a mush of pleasure, but before she lost herself completely, she still had one more task to do. She put her hooves at the base of Cadence’s wing, making sure to apply the most pleasure to the underside. Cadence’s slow licking was interrupted by a powerful moan. She wasn’t sure if it was Fluttershy hitting another sore spot, just a sensitive part of her wing, or some combination of both, but it was pushing her over the edge. With both Cadence and Fluttershy now hitting the sweet and sensitive parts of each other’s wings, the two threw their heads back in pleasure, their wings flaring up as they screamed in joy. Their impromptu massage session had given them both a happy ending. Cadence shuddered as her wings twitched. “Woo! What an intense way to start off the orgy, huh, Fluttershy?” “That was…amazing! I haven’t felt that good from a preening in a long time!” the pegasus gushed. “I didn’t think we would be able to cum from just that, but…Oooh, what a rush!” “Well…we still have another wing to take care of, if you wanna experience it again…” Cadence giggled. “Is this really necessary?” Chrysalis asked, rolling her eyes. Sandbar and Little Strongheart eagerly nodded, their eyes twinkled with a mix of excitement and lust. Chrysalis then turned to Thorax, who had already transformed into Yona, expectantly looking at Chrysalis to do the same. “...Ugh, fine.” With a begrudging sigh, Chrysalis activated her changeling magic. A flash of green fire, and the terrifying changeling was gone. In her place was an earth pony stallion with a golden coat and a long amber and orange mane, both covered up with a cowboy hat and vest. Though with the look in his eyes, the clothes were ready to come off her body at any moment. “Well, howdy…” Chrysalis said with a deep southern accent, seductively fluttering her eyes at Little Strongheart. The buffalo let out a shudder. For just a moment, she had forgotten the transformation that had taken place in front of her eyes literal seconds ago. It was a little terrifying to see the power that changelings had, but that Braeburn disguise was so accurate to the original and so hot. Thorax looked over at Chrysalis with a smirk on his face. “Betcha I can make him cum faster than you can with her.” “Oh, you’re on!” “Alright, Sandbar ready to smash?” Thorax asked with his best Yona voice. “Ohhh, I’m more than ready!” Sandbar grinned, his cock already twitching excitedly. Chrysalis lay on her back, already laying on her back, taking the hat off her head and resting it on her chest. “Well c’mon now, you wanna ride me or not?” Little Strongheart eagerly stood over Chrysalis, ready to mount her, but then turned to see Thorax ready to do the same to Sandbar. She looked back and forth between Thorax’s much larger frame and Sandbar’s pelvis, calculating the very obvious conclusion. “Uh…Sandbar? Aren’t you worried that you’re gonna…?” Sandbar waved off her concerns with a dismissive hoof. “Nahhh, it’s fine! I’ve been training for this!” He beckoned Thorax to start, but the moment Thorax brought his hips down on the pony, he let out a pained squeak. Trusting Sandbar’s judgment, Little Strongheart went back to business. She positioned herself on top of Chrysalis, looking down and still seeing the loving eyes of Braeburn. She slowly slid herself onto her. An almost silent gasp left Little Strongheart’s lips. Chrysalis even felt just like him, too. Little Strongheart’s reaction made Chrysalis chuckle. “Bet it feels real good, don’t it?” she teased. “Well don’t just sit there! I’ve been waitin’ just as long as you!” Little Strongheart had to keep mentally reminding herself that this was Chrysalis and not Braeburn, but with how thick and long her cock was, it kept fooling her. Sandbar clenched his teeth with every slam down onto his pelvis. It was expected for Thorax to do so, given who he was playing, but he was severely underestimating the results of all his exercise. “I’m…Yona not going too hard, right?” Thorax asked, seeing the worried look on Sandbar’s face. “N-Nope! Keep going!” Sandbar insisted. “Just like the real thing!” It had been a while since the last time Chrysalis turned into a stallion. Doing the work with a cock and balls made things a little tricky for the changeling. Though seeing Little Strongheart’s lovestruck face made it clear she wasn’t going to catch on to a few fumbles here or there. “Ohhh! A-Aaah! It’s…it’s so goooood!” Strongheart cried out, finding a good rhythm to bounce on the changeling to. “Oh…I love how good this feels!” Sandbar slowly acclimated to the yak weight being dropped down onto him, and some moans started to slip out. “Nnngh! A-Aah! Oh Yona-I-I mean Thorax!” In the middle of all his horniness, his mind was getting confused. “Ah…w-what should I be calling you?” “Whatever Sandbar want!” Thorax giggled. “A-Alright, then…keep going, Yona!” Strongheart listened in on Sandbar’s dilemma, feeling like she was in the same awkward position. She looked down to Chrysalis as she kept riding her. “Um…ah! S-So…what should I…?” “Heh…don’t matter to me so long as you keep going, sweetheart!” Chrysalis winked. Just hearing that cutesy nickname from that voice made Little Strongheart shudder. “O-Okay Braeburn…!” Sandbar’s hooves reached up to hold onto Thorax’s cheeks, breathing heavily as gently caressed the face he fell in love with. “Aaah…this is…amazing! Y-You’re amazing, Yona!” “Sandbar doing great!” Thorax nodded. “Pony workout make Sandbar strong like Yona!” Chrysalis licked her lips, the love she could feel from Little Strongheart just from a glance was absolutely delicious. But even she had to admit to herself that the buffalo that was currently bouncing on top of her was satisfying in its own way, giving her pleasure that she previously denied herself for a month. Little Strongheart cried out in pleasure. She was starting to get overwhelmed by the situation she found herself in. Her mind kept fighting to remind her that it wasn’t actually Braeburn, but the way Chrysalis kept thrusting into her, the way she kept moaning and shuddering, all the other gasps and moans and screams of joy echoing throughout the room. Even though Thorax was trying his best to keep up the energy Yona would give, he was admittedly apprehensive about how he was throwing all this weight around. The real Yona would not be happy with him if he accidentally made sure Sandbar couldn’t walk until Hearth’s Warming, especially at the very start of the orgy. Sandbar didn’t seem to mind, or even notice Thorax’s concerns. He was perfectly content to lay on his back while he felt the surge of pleasure from each slam. “Mmm…you getting close, sweetheart?” Chrysalis asked Strongheart with a wink. Her breathing was starting to get heavy, enough that she needed to start fanning herself with her own hat. “Well…ah…I’d be a lot closer if I wasn’t doing all the work!” Strongheart panted, winking at Chrysalis. Chrysalis tilted her head, amused by Strongheart’s cheeky comment, before obliging with some hip thrusts off the ground to help speed things along. Sandbar shuddered, holding onto Thorax’s hooves. “Ah! Y-Yona…! I-I’m…!” Thorax nodded, feeling each time that Sandbar throbbed or twitched inside of him. “Yeah! R-Ready?” Even with a few upwards thrusts, Chrysalis felt dangerously close to hitting her climax. She only hoped that Little Strongheart was about to do the same. “W-Woah! ‘Bout ready to…!” Strongheart nodded in understanding. “Uhuh! You’re gonna…I’m! Aaaaah!” With a cry from both Little Strongheart and Sandbar, their hooves bucked and kicked as they gave the changelings plenty of love to fill them. Strongheart opened her eyes up after the initial high wore off. “Woah! That was amazing! Are all the orgies like this?!” “Usually, yeah,” Sandbar chuckled. “And we got all night to keep going.” “Awesome! I think it’s my turn with ‘Yona’ now!” “Miss Whistles?” “Oh! Hello there, Miss Harshwhinny!” Windy giggled. “I heard you had quite the fun time with my daughter!” “I’m pleased to tell you that Miss Dash was…exemplary in her efforts,” Harshwhinny said, stiffly nodding. “Oooh, that’s great news!” Windy cheered, quietly clapping her hooves just so Dash didn’t hear. “I knew she’d be able to please you!” Harshwhinny cleared her throat with a slight blush on her cheeks. “Yes! Well…I was wondering if your skills were as impressive as your daughter’s.” “Oh, I don’t know about that!” Windy said, modestly waving her off. “Dashie’s had much more experience than I have in these orgy things.” Before Harshwhinny could respond, Windy already ran up in front of the mare’s face. “Buuuuut…that doesn’t mean I can’t try, right?” Harshwhinny gave her a slight smile. “By all means, Miss Whistles. Wow me.” With an excited squeal, Windy pulled Harshwhinny into a tight hug, subtly manipulating the mare’s body to sit down onto the floor as she wiggled behind her. “Er…Miss Whistles?” Harshwhinny asked, turning her head to the pegasus, still holding onto her tight. “How do you intend to get the job done from this position?” “Oh, I’m full of surprises, dear.” Windy winked. While her hooves still embraced Harshwhinny, her wings spread out wide, wrapping forward in front of them as the primary feathers pointed towards her crotch. An intrigued Harshwhinny pursed her lip, waiting to see what Windy could do before making any judgements. Windy’s wings started out slow, the primary feathers slowly against her inner thighs. Harshwhinny let out a small gasp, her body tensing up as the soft feathers grazed against her body. Windy stuck her tongue out, peering over Harshwhinny’s shoulder to get a slightly better view. It took a lot more concentration since she wasn’t doing this on her own body. “Nnn…ah!” Harshwhinny let out a few stifled squeaks of pleasure. The feathers were light and Windy’s wings weren’t even touching her marehood yet, but the way each individual primary stroked her inner thighs made her tingle. “Oh? Was that a moan I heard, Miss Harshwhinny?” Windy whispered in the mare’s ear. “I haven’t even gotten to the good part yet…” Almost out of reflexive defiance, Harshwhinny stuck her nose up and harrumphed. “Y-You’re going to have to do a lot better than that, Miss Whistles!” Harshwhinny’s defiance made Windy giggle. “If you insiiiist!” She sang, bringing her wings closer together. Despite her efforts to keep a cool head, Harshwhinny let out a rather undignified shudder. The blue feathers started directly teasing her pussy lips. “Nnngh! Nnnnf!” As the stuffy mare squirmed and huffed, Windy rested her chin on Harshwhinny’s shoulder to get a better view of her work. “I bet Dashie was only using her tongue, huh? Didn’t quite get to show off the magic of what a pegasus can do…” Harshwhinny bit her lip as a feather brush against her slit. Even without the live demonstration, she had a fairly good idea what Windy was talking about. She had a general sense of what a pegasi’s wings were capable of, but it had been quite a long time… Windy’s wings alternated strokes on Harshwhinny’s pussy. First her left wing slid up, then the right wing, always ending with a little flick at the end against her clit. As much as Harshwhinny tried to resist, the constant feathery strokes forced a silly smile on her face, though she kept her aroused moans in check. “Nnngh! Aaaah!” “Still holding back?” Windy teased, whispering in Harshwhinny’s ear. “Wouldn’t it feel so much better to let it all out and be loud?” “Hhhhf! M-Much like your daughter, you’re going to have to work much harder to hear that…!” Harshwhinny huffed, her hooves twitching in delight. “Oh, I have to earn it, do I?” Windy’s feathers spread Harshwhinny’s lips apart. “Then let’s see how you like this…!” Miss Harshwhinny’s eyes widened as she looked down. Windy had used one wing to keep her pussy spread, while the other wing had its feathers plunge deeper into her folds. “Hnnn! A-Aaaah!” Windy grinned in satisfaction upon hearing the first moan come out, using her feathers to brush and rub against Harshwhinny’s inner walls. The floodgates had opened, and Harshwhinny couldn’t stop moaning. Windy’s wings were far more dexterous than she had expected. She didn’t know wing feathers were capable of spreading her lips apart like this. She might be willing to say they were more versatile than hooves… Windy’s primary feathers alternated strokes against Harshwhinny’s pussy, almost as if they were walking up and down. “Aaaah! Ohhhh! M-Miss Whistles! Y-Your wings are-AAAH!” “They’re pretty great, right?” Windy teased, sandwiching Harshwhinny’s clit between two feathers, sawing her wings back and forth. The soft feathers constantly brushing and stroking her clit became too much for Harshwhinny. She pounded the floor as she screamed in ecstasy, leaning back against the pegasus for support as she climaxed. “AAAAH! YES! OHHH MISS WHISTLES!” Windy patted Harshwhinny on the head as she gently nuzzled her cheek. “So? Was that up to par with my Dashie or what?” Harshwhinny panted, letting out a light chuckle. “Well, it’s a very fierce competition, I may need more out of you two in order to judge properly…” As Sandbar shyly walked up to Celestia, the princess lowered her head to meet with him at eye level. “Hello, again, Sandbar. Did you miss me?” “Uh…uh…I…yeah.” Sandbar nodded. “I hope I didn’t keep you waiting too long,” Celestia winked. “I have a feeling you’ve been waiting a long time for this…” “Y-Yeah! I-I mean if that’s fine with you,” Sandbar stammered. “I’m sure you’re real busy and popular and stuff and ohhhh gosh.” Celestia calmly giggled. “Well, it just so happens that I’m available right now. So it can just be the two of us for a while. Would you like that?” “So much.” Celestia snuck a glance to see that Sandbar was already throbbing hard. “Then let’s not waste any time. I did have an idea in mind. Something perfect for a pony of my size if you’d like to try it out.” Sandbar’s eyes started to sparkle. “I-I’d love to!” “Very well then…” Celestia laid down a long length of rope down on the floor. “Start by laying down on that rope there.” Sandbar felt his heart skip a beat. He didn’t quite expect this sort of bondage, but he trusted Celestia, and laid down in the middle of the rope. Celestia nodded in approval. “Good, now just stay still while…” Sandbar watched Celestia stand over him, lowering herself on top of him. He squinted his eyes, anticipating some crushing weight, but Celestia stopped just as their bellies touched. Celestia wiggled her flank, easing Sandbar’s cock inside her, prompting a nervous, shaky groan from the stallion. Once she made sure Sandbar was in. Celestia’s horn lit up with her magic. She picked up both ends of the rope, wrapping it around them both, tying a tight knot on top of her back. She slowly stood back up, lifting Sandbar off the floor. “How are you feeling?” Sandbar tilted his head back, seeing the floor “above” him and the upside-down figures of some ponies. “Um…Good? A liiiittle dizzy?” “Well, just let me know if it’s too much, and I’ll let you be on top for a while,” Celestia winked. “Now get going, Sandbar.” Sandbar’s hooves reached upward to hug onto Celestia tight. He knew the rope was there to secure him in place, but it felt nice to hold the princess like this. It also made it easier to move his hips. Celestia jolted a bit as she felt Sandbar start humping like there was no tomorrow. “Oh! You’re rather excited!” she giggled. “Ahaah…C-Can you blame me?” Sandbar nervously chuckled. “I would just hate for you to blow your load too early…” Sandbar reluctantly slowed down his rhythm, closing his eyes and concentrating on how good it felt to be inside Princess Celestia. With Sandbar busy and doing most of the work, Celestia decided to walk around a bit. Sandbar could feel the swaying of Celestia’s hips as she walked, but paid no mind to the movement. Celestia did a little stroll around the room, watching all the other participants busy with their own sexy flings, though there were a few that had finished and were waiting to have a turn with someone else. “Hello, Fluttershy!” “Oh! Hello, Princess Celestia!” Fluttershy greeted, then tilted her head down. “Um, hello, Sandbar…!” “H-Hey, Professor Fluttershy!” Sandbar said, still not breaking his rhythm. “Are you enjoying-nnnf! Enjoying the night so far?” Celestia asked, tensing up as Sandbar kept pounding her. “It’s been wonderful so far!” Fluttershy gushed. “I can’t wait to see what comes next!” “And I bet th-that you’re very exci-aaah! Excited for a certain something…” Celestia winked. Fluttershy nervously giggled, covering up her blushing cheeks with a wing. “Ahaha…I’d love to, but you seem a bit…” She motioned towards Sandbar. “...busy…” Celestia chuckled. “Perhaps…but if you don’t want to wait…Oooh, right there, Sandbar! …I-I’m sure that you’ll scratch that itch somehow!” “I’ll try, but you better give me an amazing time when it’s my turn, like you’re currently giving Sandbar right now!” “D-Don’t worry, I intend to!” Celestia said, finding it harder to keep a straight face. “I’ll leave you to it then while I go looking. Have fun, you two!” Fluttershy waved as she walked away. With the conversation over, Celestia looked back down. “Whew! You haven’t slowed down a bit! Impressive stamina, Sandbar!” the sun princess beamed. “Ah…well, you know…haaaah…lotta practice...with Yona…!” Sandbar bragged, blood rushing to his face from arousal, nervousness, and gravity. “Could probably do this all night if I had to!” “Mmmh! Yona’s very lucky to have you then! I wish more stallions had your endurance…I certainly wouldn’t mind having you around more often,” she mused out loud, a playful, teasing look on her face. “Oh Celestia…” Sandbar quietly reaffirmed his loyalty to Yona in his mind as he continued. Celestia let out more happy, horny moans to let Sandbar hear how effective his efforts were. “Aaah, yes! Oh, I’ve missed this feeling sooooo much!” “Nnngh! M-Me too! Ah! I’ve waited years for this!” Being upside-down in suspension was starting to give Sandbar vertigo, but he pushed past the dizziness all for his princess. “Then do it, Sandbar! Show your big princess how much you love her!” Celestia commanded. Sandbar’s hooves squeezed Celestia as if his life depended on it, thrusting as deep as he could go as he unloaded his seed inside of her. For Sandbar’s safety, Celestia remained standing as she shuddered with a satisfying climax as she felt Sandbar’s cum filling her up. For a few seconds, the two remained motionless: Celestia was still standing, and Sandbar was still giving her a tight embrace while thrust deep inside the alicorn. “P-Princess?” “Yes, Sandbar?” “Not that I have a problem staying like this forever, I’m…getting really dizzy…” Rainbow Dash sidled up to Thorax, discreetly looking side to side before nudging him with her elbow. “Heyyyyy so…you remember what we were talking about like a week ago, riiiight?” As Thorax smirked and nodded, he felt another prodding on his other side. He turned to see Fluttershy anxiously tapping her hooves together. “Um…Thorax? I have a really…specific request…” she muttered, wings starting to twitch. Before Thorax could even respond, somepony else walked up to him. “Hiya, Thorax!” Cozy grinned. “Wanna have some fun? Could really use a good changeling ride right about now!” Thorax looked at the three pegasi, each of who wanted a different piece of him. He smiled softly and chuckled, already coming up with an idea that would satisfy all three of them. “Alright alright, step back ladies, lemmie see what I can do…” With a flash of fire that engulfed that changeling, what the trio saw next was a griffon laying on his side in a seductive pose, toes curling, talons wiggling, and cock throbbing. Pomf! Pomf! Pomf! “Well don’t just stand and stare!” Thorax chuckled, beckoning the three closer. The three entranced mares took their positions: Rainbow Dash at Thorax’s paws, Fluttershy sandwiching herself between claw and wing, and Cozy Glow hovering over his crotch. Cozy started inching Thorax’s cock inside of her. It wasn’t the size that was giving her trouble, but the shape that she wasn’t familiar working with yet. Rainbow grabbed Thorax’s ankles, forcibly lifting up his paws and pressing them down onto her face. An immediate scream of cathartic joy came out from the pegasi’s lips as she felt the soft paw pads squish against her cheeks. Fluttershy watched Thorax’s talon with bated breath. The fingers slowly drummed on her stomach, getting a few giggles and squirms out of the pegasus. Though even the light tapping on her tummy was enough to get her excited. Thorax was immediately hit with an almost overwhelming outpouring of love, especially from Dash and Fluttershy. He had only laid down on the floor, the most he had intentionally done was lightly drum his fingers, and yet that was enough to get a strong reaction. Cozy slipped down onto Thorax’s cock, letting out a quiet “Ah!” as she reached his knot. She could feel there was still room to go, but she wasn’t quite ready for it yet. She slowly moved up and down, using her wings to help with the lift. Dash was busy moaning in delight, getting intoxicated by the scent of Thorax’s paws she had forcibly pressed against her own face, the feeling of those soft toes squishing her cheeks. It took so much from her to break a hoof away from touching them to start rubbing herself. As Thorax’s fingers started to move faster, more giggles started to bubble up out of Fluttershy’s lips. She squirmed in place, trying her best to stay still and remain within the current-griffon’s reach. Thorax didn’t realize he had taken a mostly passive position in this arrangement as the other mares had their way with him. Cozy was finding her own rhythm first, and Rainbow Dash was content with pleasuring herself. The only one who he needed to put any real focus on was Fluttershy, so that’s where most of his attention went. The volume of Fluttershy’s laughter spiked as she felt Thorax’s tickling fingers suddenly got faster, actively spidering across her stomach, against her sides, into her ribs…She kicked her hooves out and screamed with a mix of hysterical laughter and horny moaning. Cozy flinched, both from Fluttershy’s explosive reaction, and the slow slide back down Thorax’s shaft. She was slowly getting accommodated to the shape, at least, until the knot. She wanted to take it all, but she didn’t feel prepared for it quite yet. Dash muffled some words to herself with her lips pressed against Thorax’s toes. What she tried to say was “Gilda was right, you’re such a weirdo, Dash…Ohhhh but it feels so good to be weird!” Though anyone who bothered to listen would only hear a muffled mess. Thorax chuckled and wiggled his toes against Dash’s face. He briefly glanced at Cozy trying her best to prep herself to take on his full length, though it looked like she was about to cum before she finished warming up. Cozy put her hooves on Thorax’s chest, breathing heavily. “Alright…c’mon, you got this…” She clenched her teeth, lifting her flank up so that Thorax’s tip was barely inside her, and tried again. She let out a strained moan as she went back down, until hitting the griffon knot again, unable to get past it yet. “Nnngh…oh yeah, that’s the stuff…” Rainbow muttered, sticking her muzzle underneath Thorax’s toes. Her tongue gently lapped against his pads as she furiously rubbed herself. Tears started to well up in Fluttershy’s eyes as she squealed with laughter. Thorax’s fingers had gone lower to tease her inner thighs and circle around her pussy. She found herself getting wrapped up in his wing, the soft feathers brushing up and down her body. Even though most of his focus was still on Fluttershy, Thorax turned to Cozy. “C’mon, I know you can do it!” “Yeah, yeah!” Cozy immediately replied with a mix of irritation and desperation in her voice. She lifted herself up once more, preparing for another try. Even with a mouthful of paw, Rainbow’s moans were starting to match the volumes of the other two pegasi she was sharing Thorax with. Her one hoof wrapped around his ankle made sure to press hard against her face while her other hoof made quick rapid movements against her clit. Fluttershy found it nearly impossible to keep still. She kept thrashing and rolling around in ticklish pleasure. Thankfully, with Thorax putting most of his attention on her, she wouldn’t be able to go far without a hand or wing guiding her back to Thorax’s side to keep teasing and touching her in the right ways. Thorax kept his hand on Fluttershy’s pussy, watching Cozy intently. He had no idea how many more tries she could attempt before he reached his limit. Cozy inhaled and held her breath, shutting her eyes as she slammed her flank back down on Thorax’s griffon dick. When she hit the knot, her eyes cracked open just a bit, but kept herself pushing, until she felt a pop and a massive spike of pleasure hitting her, causing her wings to spring open as she screamed in pleasure. Cozy’s success was good news for Thorax, as that last push was also enough to send him over. His fingers and toes curled and his wings shuddered as he shot off his load. Thorax’s climactic reflex movements affected the other two pegasi. The trembling wings brushing against Fluttershy’s stomach and his hand fingering her, and his toes curling around Rainbow’s muzzle were enough to get them to climax. In the afterglow, the three pegasi snuggled up to Thorax’s chest, breathing heavily with a guilty pleasure of fantasy fulfillment. “Heeeeyyyy, Kerfuffle!” Silverstream immediately waved the pegasus down. “You wanna fuck?” Kerfuffle was taken back by the very brazen request, but given where she was, she supposed that saying it out loud like that wasn’t so unusual. “Oooh, yeah! Whatcha have in mind?” “Well, I was wondering if you had some neat toys to play with,” Silverstream explained, taking out her box of sex paraphernalia. Kerfuffle took one look inside and was impressed with what she saw. “Ooh, well, I didn’t bring much from Hope Hollow, but I did have a little something special…I guess I can let you see how nifty it is!” Silverstream was practically bouncing off the walls in excitement. “Oooh, show me show me show me!” Kerfuffle turned around, not holding anything. Instead, she was wearing something bumpy on her right hoof. Silverstream tilted her head in confusion. “A…glove?” “Yep!” Kerfuffle flicked her hoof, and it started to vibrate before she flicked it back off. “My buddy Torque Wrench helped me with this!” Excited, Silverstream reached into her box of fun and pulled out a vibrating wand. “Oooh, let’s see how it compares with this!” Silverstream slid in between Kerfuffle’s legs, using her thumb to flick on the vibrator. Meanwhile, Kerfuffle flicked her hoof to get her vibrating glove going. “Alright, on three, alright?” Silverstream asked. Kerfuffle nodded. “Sounds good! One…” “Two…” “ThrEEEEEEE?!” Before Kerfuffle could get started, she felt Silverstream already pressing the vibrator against her pussy, making her jump in surprise. “Sorry! Got excited!” Silverstream giggled. With a cheeky grin, Kerfuffle decided to return the favor, pressing her vibrating hoof down on Silverstream’s crotch. “WooooAAAAHH!” Silverstream arched her back. Kerfuffle’s hoof felt a lot different than any of the vibrators she had used before, and much different than Sandbar or Ocellus’s own hooves. Hearing Silverstream’s immediate reaction made Kerfuffle feel a sense of smug satisfaction that couldn’t currently be shown on her face as Silverstream’s vibrator still buzzed against her marehood. Silverstream slowly moved the round bulb of the vibrator up and down Kerfuffle’s pussy, holding onto the pony’s leg for grip. “Oooh, I loooooove your robot leg! It’s soooOOOooo cool!” Kerfuffle stifled a chuckle. She could tell by the wandering end of the wand that Silverstream was getting distracted ogling at her prosthetic. “I’ll let ya admire it all ya want after we’re done, kay?” Silverstream snapped back to attention, still holding onto Kerfuffle’s leg. “OkaaaaAAAaaay!” Kerfuffle shivered as Silverstream gave her more attention. Her vibrating hoof made slow circles around the hippogriff’s pussy lips, letting the little vibrators in the glove do most of the work for her. “NaaaaaAAAAA!” Silverstream clutched tight onto Kerfuffle’s leg, her other arm reflexively pushing her vibrator a little bit deeper into Kerfuffle’s folds. Kerfuffle’s wings popped open. Her hoof trembled against Silverstream’s crotch as the pleasure made a sudden spike. Though given how shaky her hoof already was, it was hard to notice. The slow circles against her pussy were blowing Silverstream’s mind. She had no idea if it was the size or spacing of the vibrators on her hoof, the frequency of the vibrations, or just some magic Kerfuffle technique. Either way, she was going wild. It was pretty satisfying for Kerfuffle to hear all of Silverstream’s excited screams of joy with the little movement she had to expend. She didn’t even mind the rather basic vibrator that the hippogriff was using in comparison. All of it just made her more excited to use it on Tempest or Celaeno later once the night was over. “H-Heeeyyyy, does your hoof have different levels?” Silverstream shakily asked, pressing a button on the handle of her wand. As the vibrator rose in pitch, so did Kerfuffle’s moans. The shift in intensity sent electric tingles up her spine. “Ooooh, h-how about thiiIIiis?” she said, tapping the back of her hoof. “AAIIIIEEEEEEE! OOOOOH YES!” Silverstream howled as her hooves kicked out in delight. Just to try and keep up, she hit the button again, kicking the vibrator up another notch. “AAAAH! OHHHH GOSH!” Kerfuffle gasped. The flat of her hoof ran up and down Silverstream’s pussy. Her entire body was trembling as much as the vibrator that was pleasuring her. Silverstream tried to focus the wand on the mare’s clit, but it was easier said than done, considering Kerfuffle was squirming her flank around, and with all the pleasure she was getting made her own hand shaky. Though that sort of shakiness actually worked for Kerfuffle, finding herself completely red in the face from the random movements against her pussy. It soon became an escalating race, with Kerfuffle and Silverstream gradually increasing the intensity on their vibrators, trying to get the other to cum first. Even though Kerfuffle’s vibrating glove was working magic on Silverstream, the pegasus sometimes lacked the concentration to tap her hoof to take things to the next level, while Silverstream only needed to press her thumb down. Silverstream was so excited to see how far Kerfuffle’s magic hoof could go, she wanted to ride it out all the way, but with all the vibrations on her pussy driving her wild already, she was overwhelmed by the pleasure, arching her back into Kerfuffle’s hoof as she came. Thankfully, Kerfuffle’s orgasm followed shortly after, with a satisfied hum of pleasure and an excited flittering of her wings and a bit of squirting onto Silverstream’s face. The hippogriff’s arms fell to the floor, soundly defeated by Kerfuffle’s magic hoof. “Wowwww, I have GOT to get me one of those!” Little Strongheart had Twilight Velvet underneath her, nervously positioning herself on top. “L-Like this?” Velvet calmly nodded. “Mmhm, now just lower yourself down a bit,” she said, trying to guide the somewhat nervous buffalo. Strongheart did as she was told, slowly bending her legs until she felt her crotch rub up against the pony’s, letting out a short gasp in surprise. Velvet lifted up her hind hooves, cradling Strongheart’s flanks. “Ready?” Strongheart let out a sharp exhale, before nodding her head with a new determination in her eyes. She started rotating her hips, grinding up against the pony underneath her. There was a temporary pause as both buffalo and pony let out a delighted gasp as their pussies rubbed against each other. Feeling the jolt of pleasure left both wanting more, so Little Strongheart started thrusting her hips again, and again, with the pleasure gradually escalating each time. “Ah! Yes! J-Just like that!” Velvet encouraged, feeling Strongheart’s clit rubbing up against her own. With each thrust, Strongheart let out a gasp or moan. Her chest felt tight as the arousal started to haze her mind. Velvet started to notice that Strongheart was starting to miss her mark more often, not feeling quite as much pleasure as she was before. “Hah, getting distracted? Maybe I should be on top so you can just enjoy the ride…” Strongheart blushed as she snapped back to attention and realigned herself. “S-Sorry!” she sheepishly laughed. “It just…feels so good!” “That it does!” Velvet winked. “You’re doing-oooh! Great so far, dear.” “Thanks…I still can’t believe this is happening. This is my first time…DOING AN ORGY, I MEAN!” Velvet let out little laughs between the moaning. “Well, that makes two of us!” Little Strongheart was taken by surprise. “R-Really?” “Mmhm! This is my second go at it, I guess I just got lucky this time!” “Wow! Nnf!” Strongheart did a slow grind of her hips, letting their lips teasingly brush together for as long as possible. “You just…it feels like you’ve done this before already!” “Oh hon, when you have kids that finally move out of the house, you get to go through the backlog of ALL the wild things you didn’t want them to hear,” Velvet winked. Strongheart had no idea how to respond to that. And Velvet realized that she was probably talking like an insane pony. “Ah, you don’t wanna hear me ramble on, do ya? You just wanna hump me like there’s no tomorrow!” “W-Well-nnnf! I was just thinking…if you’ve done this before, but you’ve still got a husband…” “Ah! Oooh! I’ve had my share of fun before I’ve gotten married, ya know!” “Mmmh…m-makes sense…” Strongheart squeaked as she kept thrusting herself against Velvet. The repeated motions of their clits rubbing together started to make her brain go fuzzy again, but she tried to push past the haze and keep striking the same spot. Velvet closed her eyes and hummed in delight as Strongheart got into the groove. “Aaah…Y-You’re a natural!” Strongheart’s cheeks were already blushing up a storm, but the way she was nervously shifting her eyes from side to side made it easy to tell how flustered she was. “Aha…really?” Velvet’s hind hooves wrapped around Strongheart’s flank, her front hoof gently caressing the buffalo’s cheek. “Definitely.” The gentle encouragement was enough to motivate Strongheart to hump faster. She hadn’t realized that she was practically laying on top of the mare now, gyrating her flank back and forth as she grinded against her. Velvet’s hooves squeezed Strongheart’s butt as she moaned and screamed. “Ah! Yes! That’s AMAZING, sweetheart!” Little Strongheart’s concentration broke for just a second upon hearing the affectionate nickname Velvet chose for her. Her eyes widened and her gaze briefly shifted to the side before she tried to continue. Though Velvet wasn’t fooled. She could see the hesitation on her face, clear as day. “Something wrong with what I just said, Little Strongheart?” “A-Ah, no, just…my first boyfriend calls me ‘sweetheart’ a lot,” she explained. “Oh, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to bring up-” “Nononono, current boyfriend. I just have two now, I guess.” Strongheart shrugged. “It’s…a long story.” Velvet giggled, wrapping her front hooves around Strongheart’s neck. “Well, maybe you can tell me more once we’re done…” With Velvet’s hooves wrapped around her flank, it was like she was subtly guiding Strongheart’s body. They squeezed her body as she thrusted, making sure that their clits touched each time. Velvet shuddered as their lips rubbed together. She pulled Little Strongheart’s head closer, not enough to boldly lock lips with her - she would let that be the buffalo’s decision - but close enough that they could feel their hot breath on each other’s necks. Strongheart noticed how close the two now were. She was laying on top of Velvet, Velvet had wrapped all her hooves around her. She could feel the unicorn’s body heat and panting just as well as her wet pussy lips… With a scream, her legs gave out as she collapsed on top of Velvet. Velvet finally released most of her grip on Little Strongheart as her hind hooves kicked in the air, squirting with her during their climax. Even though Strongheart was feeling mentally exhausted from the two sexual experiences she had so far tonight, Velvet was up and ready almost immediately. “Woo!” she cheered, looking at Strongheart with a grin. “A girl could get used to winning these things!” Ever since Shining Armor and Princess Cadence approached her, Chrysalis had done nothing but glare at them, moreso Cadence than her husband. “Oh come on, Chrysalis. Can’t you enjoy yourself tonight?” Cadence asked. “Only when I figure out what you’re up to!” Chrysalis snarled, butting heads with the princess. Cadence merely giggled. “We’re trying to invite you to join in on our lovemaking, that’s all!” “Lovemaking…” Chrysalis scoffed. “I’m sure…” Shining and Cadence looked at each other and shrugged. “Well, if you don’t wanna, that’s fine,” Shining Armor smirked, nudging Cadence to start walking away with him. “It was gonna be pretty intense…I guess we can go ask Thorax…” Chrysalis watched the couple turn their backs on her, starting to walk away. She was still wary of what the two were up to, but she knew that she only had seconds to respond before the opportunity was gone. “Wait! If it’s so important to you then…I suppose I shall indulge in your sick pleasures.” Shining and Cadence smiled and turned back to Chrysalis. “Well then, let’s get started!” Cadence said. The two quickly got on both sides of the changeling, immediately peppering her cheeks and neck with kisses. Chrysalis huffed, subconsciously moving her head towards whichever one was currently planting their lips on her, trying to pretend that she wasn’t enjoying herself. Cadence went all the way up, kissing Chrysalis underneath her chin and even sneaking a quick kiss onto her lips. Meanwhile, Shining Armor went downwards, gently nibbling at the base of her neck. Chrysalis let out a strained groan. The repeated kisses were turning her on, which ordinarily wouldn’t be a problem for her. But the fact that it was Cadence and Shining doing it to her was giving her a mixed bag of emotions. “C’mon, Chryssie…” Shining cooed. “You’re not enjoying yourself…?” “We just want you to have fun…” Cadence whispered in her ear. Chrysalis grit her teeth as her ears flicked. “Rrrgh, I’m not here for foreplay! If you’re going to do something with me, just get it over with now!” Cadence looked over at her husband. “Alright, shall we, dear?” “Let’s!” Before Chrysalis could ask another question, she felt the two press their horns against her own. “What are you? A-Aaah…” The changeling felt two magical energies flowing down her horn. It felt similar to the feeling of draining love, but somewhat lighter. But before she could bask in the warmth of the magic, the two pulled away. Chrysalis did a quick examination of her body, trying to detect any sort of change. “...What did you do to me?” “Well, we know how much you wanted our love…” Cadence said “So we wanted to make sure that you got it!” Cadence’s hoof reached underneath Shining, giving his shaft a slow stroke from base to tip. Chrysalis stiffened up as she felt a sudden touch in her loins. She whipped around to see who was trying to sneak up on her, but found no one else even near her. Shining walked around behind his wife, gently prodding Cadence’s pussy with the tip of his dick. Chrysalis’s eyes widened as a quiet, shocked gasp left her lips. Even if her own folds weren’t actually being spread apart, she felt like they were. “W-What kind of magic…?” “Chastity Shield Version 6.0.2,” Shining winked. “Albeit with a few modifications made for the orgy.” “All so you can feel the love we have for each other, Chryssie…” Chrysalis arched her back, trembling with pleasure as she felt what the couple were doing in front of her face. Shining had just mounted Cadence, slowly inserting himself inside her. Thankfully for the couple, this time they could happily enjoy the sexual sensations, as Shining Armor started doing slow thrusts. The same couldn’t be said for Chrysalis, who was already having trouble standing up straight. With the spell that was cast on her, she was feeling Cadence getting plowed by Shining Armor, and Shining Armor plowing Cadence. Both sensations combined to make an incredibly confusing, but incredibly pleasurable experience. “Ohhh, yes…that’s the stuff…!” Cadence moaned, leaning her head back to touch the tip of her horn with Shining. Shining firmly placed his hooves on Cadence’s flank, giving her a firm squeeze as he thrusted back and forth. “Nnngh…Oh I missed this so much…” Chrysalis let out a yelp, feeling the squeeze on her own flank. She started to drool uncontrollably as the doubled sensations made her brain numb and put her love senses into overload. “Ngggaah! Fuck! I…A-Aaaah!” Shining’s hooves wrapped around Cadence’s stomach as he started to hump faster, the full length of his shaft pounding deep inside her, trying to last as long as he could inside her just to make Cadence and Chrysalis quiver and tremble. Cadence’s wings popped out in pleasure as Shining slammed into her, his cock touching her G-spot. “Ah! I-I love you so much, Shiny!” she panted, letting out a squeak whenever Shining went all the way. “S…So much love…! It’s…It’s so much…! Hnnngh!” Chrysalis couldn’t stop all the loud moans and screams of pleasure that left her mouth every second. Whatever cute little moan or gasp Cadence or Shining made, Chrysalis echoed with twice the intensity. Cadence slowly crept forward, letting out shaky breaths and giggles as she watched Chrysalis get overwhelmed. “W-We didn’t want you to feel left out…” she said, lowering herself. As Cadence bowed down, Shining lifted himself up, planting a kiss firmly on the changeling’s lips. Chrysalis’s mind turned into a complete haze, unable to process anything but the pure pleasure that washed over her entire body. The kiss from Shining lasted for only a few seconds before Chrysalis forcibly broke free, collapsing to the floor in orgasmic bliss. Cadence and Shining amusedly watched Chrysalis roll around on the floor, squirting out and crying in pleasure. “Should we make sure she’s alright?” Shining asked. “In a bit, I haven’t finished yet…” Cadence smirked. As Sandbar searched for his next activity, he was approached by Windy Whistles. “Did it with Celestia?” she asked. “Yep.” “Waited all month for it?” “Mmhm.” “Best sex of the night?” “You know it.” “Up top.” Windy raised up a hoof, which Sandbar was more than happy to smack with his own. Little Strongheart was gaining more confidence as the night went on. She was excited to explore the possibilities that awaited her. Though still being new came with some relative anxieties. Maybe if she had another encounter with someone more experienced… “Oh! Fluttershy!” Fluttershy tilted her head with a smile. “Oh, Little Strongheart! Did you want to do something?” “Mmhm!” “Oh, that sounds fun! Did you have something in mind?” “Maybe we could just…do a 69 thing?” she sheepishly suggested. “Oooh, alright!” “Sorry if it’s not all that creative. I heard you do a lot of crazy stuff with Discord-” “Oh, don’t worry about that! I’m not here to compare orgy flings,” Fluttershy said to reassure her, finding an unoccupied mattress for them to lay on. Little Strongheart decided to be on the bottom, sprawling herself on the bed, waiting for Fluttershy. Fluttershy walked over, gently laying on top of Strongheart, making sure not to accidentally crush the buffalo beneath. “Comfortable?” Little Strongheart was face to face with Fluttershy’s marehood, practically kissing her lips already. “U-Uhuh…!” Fluttershy smiled, using her hooves to gently rub Strongheart’s inner thighs to warm her up. “Mmmh…” The buffalo started off by slowly rubbing her muzzle against Fluttershy’s lips. With a soft little “Ooh”, Fluttershy’s wings flexed for just a moment. She continued to massage Little Strongheart’s inner thighs, using her hooves to go in little circles, getting closer and closer to those wet pussy lips. Little Strongheart kept nuzzling and kissing Fluttershy’s vulva, almost entranced by the way it was winking at her. It was just so…inviting. Fluttershy felt all the little moans and murmurs from Strongheart with her muzzle so close to her marehood. She shivered from all the pleasant little tingles. Her hooves finally got to her pussy, the tips of her hooves gave gentle little strokes up and down. “Nnnh…ah!” Strongheart gasped. Her hooves grasped Fluttershy’s butt, caressing and lovingly rubbing her flank, before giving her a quick spank right to the cutie mark. “Eeep!” Fluttershy jolted in surprise. The cheeky little smack made her grin and lick her lips. She brought her head down, slowly trailing her tongue down Little Strongheart’s pussy. Strongheart felt the action starting, and responded in kind, puckering her lips to start suckling on her clit. A loud moan escaped Fluttershy’s lips. Little Strongheart was already starting off intense. She went down to lick with a little bit more pressure as she went down again. Little Strongheart squeezed Fluttershy’s flanks, holding her butt down as she greedily suckled and slurped. Fluttershy felt her face starting to go red hot. In order to kick things up a notch to match the buffalo’s intensity, she used her hooves to spread Strongheart’s pussy apart to get her tongue in between her folds. Little Strongheart’s moans were muffled in Fluttershy’s muff. Though she took a break from suckling on her clit, the buffalo refused to slow down.  Her tongue started lapping Fluttershy’s inner thighs. Fluttershy could feel Strongheart’s crotch pushing into her tongue, indicating her desire for more. It was something the pegasus was more than happy to provide. She started going just a little bit faster, prodding her tongue just a little bit deeper, hearing and feeling the moans from Strongheart as evidence of her doing her job properly. Though her vision was mostly covered by Fluttershy flank, Strongheart could see Fluttershy’s wings slowly unfold the more she licked. As her tongue traced around the pony’s pussy, she started getting more intimate with her flank; gently tracing around her cutie mark, a few light spanks, some tail pulling, too. Fluttershy’s attempts at eating Strongheart out got interrupted by all the distracting teases the buffalo was doing. The strokes made her shiver, the spanks made her jolt, and the tail pulling made her pop her head up to squeak. Her wings unfurled fully after a simultaneous tail pull and clit kiss. Little Strongheart planted her hooves firmly on Fluttershy’s flank, giving her a squeeze as she buried her muzzle in her pussy, greedily licking at the inner folds. Fluttershy decided to dig in as well, using her hooves to keep the pussy spread, she dove in, running the flat of her tongue against her clit for a few licks, then rapidly flicking her tongue against her button. The two kept going, their faces planted firmly in the other’s crotch. The pleasure kept building up between the two as neither wanted to pull their head back until one of them finally came. It was a series of flank gropings that made Fluttershy come up for air, screaming in joy as she came all over Strongheart’s face, though as soon as she could think straight, she went right back down, giving the buffalo more licks and kisses until she orgasmed, too. “The tail pulling was a nice touch!” Fluttershy complimented. “T-Thanks! I gotta remember that for back home!” Thorax looked over to see a rare sight: Miss Harshwhinny with a genuine, giddy smile on her face. Granted, it was probably the afterglow doing most of the work, but it still counted. Harshwhinny sauntered over to the changeling with the same satisfied smile on her face. “Well, Mister Thorax, I see you’re available…” Thorax let out a nervous chuckle. “That I am, Miss Harshwhinny. Did you have something in mind?” “Do you recall what you were boasting to me a couple weeks ago?” “Oh, right! Me and Spike and Shining were talking about which one of you that you’d have sex with first…” Thorax took a few moments to try and remember who Harshwhinny had been with so far. “...Wait! Does that mean you-” “When the opportunity allows itself, I shall be checking in with Mister Armor, but since you’re quite free at the moment, why don’t I see if those transforming skills are worth it, hm?” “Oh, you bet!” Thorax grinned. “I’d love to show you my stuff.” “For your sake, I hope your jack of all trades means you’ve mastered at least some,” Harshwhinny said, cocking a smug eyebrow.. Thorax exhaled sharply, trying not to get intimidated. “Well, I’m happy to turn into whatever fantasy you’d like!” “Oh I have plenty of fantasies…Why don’t you surprise me, Mister Thorax?” Harshwhinny dragged a hoof down Thorax’s chest. “Show me something special, hm?” Thorax thought for a moment, but an idea quickly came to mind. Harshwhinny watched as Thorax transformed into the spitting image of…herself. “I figure, who else would be better at fulfilling your high standards than you?” Thorax said, imitating Harshwhinny’s stuffy attitude. Harshwhinny walked around Throax, giving his body a proper inspection. “I must admit, I’m impressed. Though I can’t help but notice you’ve made a few…additions.” Harshwhinny tilted her head. In-between Thorax’s legs was a fairly sizable horsecock and balls. Thorax smirked. “Well, I need to get the job done with the tools I was given, don’t I?” He started to stroke his cock slowly. “Plus, I bet you’ve never seen yourself rocking one of these, right?” “Hm, I suppose you have a point there, Mister Thorax,” Harshwhinny mused. “Very well, let’s see what you’ve got!” Thorax sat down and spread his hooves, letting his cock stand up proudly. He beckoned Harshwhinny closer, inviting her to take a seat however she’d like. Harshwhinny slowly eased herself onto Thorax’s cock, opting to stare face to face with her current lookalike. “Is the size to your liking, Miss Harshwhinny?” Thorax asked. “I can change it to make you more comfortable and suit your needs.” “How thoughtful of you,” Harshwhinny smirked. “But the length you’ve chosen is quite satisfactory.” “Very well,” Thorax nodded. “Let’s get started.” Thorax put his hooves on Harshwhinny’s hips, holding onto her with a firm grip as he started thrusting. What pleased Harshwhinny at the start aside from his attentive attitude was the fact that he already started with a good rhythm, it made it easy to accommodate herself to the motions. What was considerably harder to deal with though, was looking at Thorax in the face and seeing her own face looking back at her. It felt like masturbating in front of the mirror. The little gasps he was making with her voice also threw her off. It was a strange experience, but it was precisely what she asked for. Thorax could sense the awkward tension that Harshwhinny was feeling. “Is this too much, Miss Harshwhinny? We could always try something else.” “Ah! Mister Thorax, don’t get the wrong idea! I’m just…getting used to the concept of having sex with myself.” “Are you off-put by the voice?” Thorax asked. “I can talk like this, if you want,” he said with his normal voice. Harshwhinny visibly cringed. “No, that won’t be necessary, Mister Thorax. I’ll adjust in time.” “Very well,” Thorax said, taking Harshwhinny’s voice once more. Harshwhinny looked back at Thorax’s face, seeing her own so pensive and unsure. “You know, Mister Thorax, there is one thing I think you could improve on...” “Oh? A-And what’s that?” Thorax asked, wondering what detail about her that he was overlooking. “Why, it’s your attitude, of course!” “H-Huh?” Harshwhinny’s muzzle pressed up against Thorax. “You look far too stressed out. It’s an unbecoming look to be worried about everything all the time,” she explained, almost letting out a chuckle. “Believe me.” Thorax blinked, looking Harshwhinny square in the eyes. He could feel her hot breath going down his neck. “I…a-alright?” “I may have high standards, Mister Thorax, but I still know how to enjoy myself…” As Miss Harshwhinny lifted up her flank for another slam down on the cock, she leaned forward, planting a fervent kiss on Thorax’s lips. Thorax’s eyes widened in surprise, but seeing as Harshwhinny wasn’t pulling away, he slowly closed his eyes, letting the mare take some more control over the situation. Harshwhinny broke the kiss, but quickly went back in to gently nibble Thorax’s neck. “Nngh! Ah! Ohhh!” Thorax moaned. He kept thrusting his hips, pounding his cock into Harshwhinny’s pussy. “Nnnf! T-That feels so goooood!” Making Thorax moan and hearing her voice come out made Harshwhinny blush madly. To hear herself sound so turned on, and to be the one to draw those sounds out herself felt exhilarating. Of course, Thorax wasn’t the only one moaning. The changeling still had a grip on Harshwhinny’s flanks. Each thrust and bounce made Harshwhinny let out another pleasured squeak, the look on her face just as giddy as Thorax’s own. Harshwhinny was moving along with Thorax, making sure that she was taking the whole length each time. “D-Don’t stop! Your cock is amazing!” she moaned, throwing her hooves over Thorax’s shoulders. Thorax grunted and gasped, pulling himself closer to Harshwhinny. “I-I THINK I’M GOING TO-!” “DON’T HOLD BACK! AAAH! G-GIVE ME EVERYTHING!” Harshwhinny demanded. Thorax was putting his all into Harshwhinny, wildly and intensely fucking the mare as they held tight onto each other. It was as if Harshwhinny's moans echoed throughout the room as the two reached a climax. Thorax’s sticky cum dripped out from Harshwhinny’s pussy as he slowly pulled out. “Aha…well! T-That was quite the exhilarating experience, Mister Thorax!” the mare panted. “I quite enjoyed exploring my own body…” Chrysalis pouted her lips. She was sure Cadence was still up to something, if she just had the proof… She let out a sigh. Perhaps she was getting too worked up over this. Maybe she should just let it go and reap the rewards of tonight. Chrysalis felt something that she hoped was a hoof poking her flank. She turned around to see Sandbar nervously rubbing his hooves together. “...What do you want?” “Uh, I know that we kinda did a thing together already,” Sandbar started. “But you were mostly with Little Strongheart and I was just wondering if you wanted to maybe do something together…” Chrysalis raised an eyebrow, the stallion just seemed so earnest in his request. “Fine, fine. What do you want me to be? The yak again? Celestia?” “Actually, could you just be…you?” “...You’re serious.” Sandbar quietly nodded with his puppy-dog eyes. Chrysalis shrugged. Sandbar’s tastes were unexpected, but at least it made it a little easier not needing to act. Sandbar laid down on one of the mattresses, seemingly taking the position he wanted to be in. Which left Chrysalis to stand imposingly over him. “So, where should I start first?” she sneered, using her forked tongue to lick her lips. The sight of Chrysalis towering above him was enough to get his cock throbbing. “Hhhhh…” Admittedly, getting Sandbar instantly hard with just a look was a big boost to her ego. “How about I work my way down?” “Drain me,” Sandbar murmured, already hyperventilating from how seductive Chrysalis sounded. “Oh, don’t worry…I plan to.” Possibly not the best thing to utter when Cadence and Shining were nearby, but it seemed to be doing it for Sandbar. She leaned her head down, breathing hotly on Sandbar’s face, baring her fangs. Sandbar instinctively winced, but there was an unmistakable smile on his face as Chrysalis drew closer. “I can’t believe you’re into this…” Chrysalis laughed, her forked tongue slithered against Sandbar’s face, poking and tickling his ear. “It makes you look all the more…delicious…” Sandbar’s cock was throbbing. He was so excited he could barely breathe. Chrysalis’s voice made him feel paralyzed a practically shameful combination of fear and arousal. Chrysalis chuckled, looking at how helplessly aroused the stallion was. She flicked her tongue against the base of Sandbar’s neck, slowly moving upwards. Once she got halfway, she opened her mouth wide, lightly chomping on his neck. “A-Aaah!” Sandbar squeaked out, finally vocal for the first time in a while. His hooves instinctively shot up to grab onto Chrysalis’s shoulders. “Mmm…you’re practically dripping with love…” Chrysalis taunted, being more careful with her nibbles due to her fangs. She didn’t want to ruin things by going too far, after all. “Golly, is that voice trying to be sexy, or desperate?” Chrysalis immediately turned her head to snarl at Cozy. “Do you mind? I’m busy, here!” Cozy responded with a cheeky shrug. “I just wanted to make sure you were doing actual orgy stuff at the orgy. Would hate for Sandbar to be scared off by your weird-ass conspiracy theories.” “Will you please just shut up?!” “Shut me up yourself,” Cozy said, sneering in Chrysalis’s face. With an idea already in mind, Chrysalis grabbed Cozy with her magic, forcing the pegasi’s face right into her flank. “If you’re going to keep running your mouth, at least put it to good use.” Cozy’s hooves and wings flailed around for a bit, but she decided to play along, giving the changeling’s pussy a few slow licks. Chrysalis hummed in satisfaction before turning back to Sandbar. “Now then, where were we? Ah, yes. Time to give me your love…” “Hnnngh…” Sandbar looked up at Chrysalis, seeing the changeling blushing and panting as Cozy was servicing her from behind. There was a torrent of emotions he was experiencing, but he was excited to see where it would take him. Chrysalis started off with a brief kiss on Sandbar’s lips, before moving down his body, going down his neck, chest, and stomach, down to his waist. She relished in drawing out every little gasp and moan from the stallion. Even while eating Chrysalis out, Cozy Glow was still scheming. She pondered how funny it would be to mess with her while she was seducing Sandbar. Maybe she could steal Sandbar away and make him cum before she did, or spank her flank hard right before Sandbar came, or drag Celestia to make them fight for Sandbar’s affection. Then again, it was already pretty satisfying to make Chrysalis moan in the middle of her attempts to be threatening… Chrysalis shuddered as she felt Cozy’s tongue slip between her folds. She looked at Sandbar’s cock, throbbing and leaking pre. Her forked tongue lightly flicked against his balls before wrapping around his shaft. Sandar put his hooves to his mouth, squeaking as the changeling’s tongue teased him. “Ohhh gosh…” Cozy put her hooves on Chrysalis’s flanks, doing a slow long lick up her pussy. Her ears pointed up, trying to hear the subtle moans she might be trying to hide. Chrysalis slipped Sandbar’s cock around her lips, sliding down his shaft with expert ease. “Aaah! F-Fuuuck!” Sandbar shuddered. Chrysalis was not wasting time, she was already taking the full length of his dick with no issue whatsoever. Cozy tried different techniques; slow long licks, faster slurps, kisses, gentle clit nibbles, all to find out which turned Chrysalis on the most. It was harder to hear her moans with Sandbar in her mouth, which is why she had to repeat motions on several occasions. Sandbar’s breathing was getting short. Feeling Chrysalis’s lips bobbing up and down his shaft made him feel shaky. He hesitantly reached out to hold onto the back of the changeling’s head just for some grip. Chrysalis felt the pony’s hooves touching her head, and she turned her head upwards to look at Sandbar. Not in disapproval, of course. She moved her head up to the tip of his cock, teasingly running her tongue around his shaft as she winked. Sandbar felt like he could blow his load right there. In truth, the wink was involuntary; it was a result of Cozy flicking the tip of her tongue against her clit that pleasured her in just the right way. But since it made Sandbar even more turned on, Chrysalis wasn’t about to complain. Chrysalis kept going, moaning with Sandbar’s cock in her mouth due to the pleasure she was getting from the ponies at both ends. She could feel Cozy’s tongue brushing over her clit, and Sandbar’s cock throbbing and twitching, desperate for a climax. “Hnn! Ah! I-I caaan’t! I’m gonna! Aaah! Fuuuuuck!” Sandbar had one hoof on Chrysalis’s head and the other on her horns as he moaned, giving the changeling all the love he had inside him. Chrysalis swallowed all of Sandbar’s cum without spilling a drop. She slowly pulled her head up, licking her lips, satiated. “Wonderful, absolutely wonderful…” she chuckled. As Chrysalis brought her head back up, Cozy slowly pulled back, trying to sneak away. But as soon as she took her first step, she found herself surrounded by a green magical aura again. “Where do you think you’re going?” Chrysalis hissed, placing Cozy back near her crotch. “I didn’t tell you to stop, did I?” While Cozy kept eating Chrysalis out, Sandbar laid there on the bed, drained. He wasn’t sure if Chrysalis had actually sucked out his love, or if he was just feeling woozy from the blowjob he just got. Either way, he weakly pumped his hoof with a smile on his face. “Soooo worth it…!” Kerfuffle lay on her back, right on top of Celestia’s stomach. “Are ya sure this is the right position, princess?” “I’m quite sure, Kerfuffle,” Celestia smiled warmly. “Eeee, I’m so excited!” Kerfuffle grinned, clapping her hooves together excitedly. “I’ve never had a magicjob from a princess before! Well, I never had a magicjob ever, before. But I guess that’s kinda obvious if ya took one look at me, ahahaha! Oh gosh I’m excited…” she sheepishly grinned. Celestia chuckled at Kerfuffle’s enthusiasm as her horn started to glow. Both her and Kerfuffle’s pussies were enveloped in a yellow magical aura. Kerfuffle’s eyes started to sparkle, she could feel the tingles on her crotch along with a warm, fuzzy feeling. Celestia let out a satisfied hum as the familiar feeling washed over her. But considering she was also pleasuring Kerfuffle, she didn’t want to get complacent. Not that Kerfuffle would be able to tell if Celestia wasn’t giving it her all. “Oooooh! This is soooo gooood!” she cried out, arching her back, already feeling like she was in erotic paradise. “I’ve only just gotten started,” Celestia winked as she concentrated more on her magic. Celestia’s magic currently broadly covered both mares’ crotches, which also included the inner thighs. She would normally focus her magic to more specific areas, but she wanted to give Kerfuffle the chance to take in the experience of her magic Kerfuffle was already squirming and writhing in pleasure on top of Celestia. No matter where she turned, the magic followed. It felt like a mix of all sorts of sensations at once. Kisses, rubs, strokes, squeezes… Celestia started to shrink the area of magic, so that it was focusing more on their vulvas. She closed her eyes and shuddered a bit in pleasure. What the change in area lacked in coverage, it made up for in intensity. Kerfuffle nearly flew off the princess as she felt the focus shift immediately. “WOOOAH! That’s got some kick to it! Eeeee!” “Hmhmhmhm, does it? I couldn’t tell,” Celestia giggled. Kerfuffle kept wriggling and turning on Celestia, unable to keep still due to the surges of pleasure that were hitting her. “Oooh, why did nopony tell me that a magicjob was gonna be so…so…maaaagical!” Performing the spell on both her and Kerfuffle took quite a bit of concentration on Celestia’s part. Ordinarily, if she was by herself, she’d be able to go more on autopilot, and control her magic aura with a bit more finesse. Doing it for two was still manageable, but required more effort, especially with Keruffle constantly thrashing around. Kerfuffle noticed that Celestia’s moans were rather subdued in comparison to her wild moaning. “S-Something wrong, princess? I’m not stealing all the good magic from you, am I?” “No, nothing like that,” Celestia chuckled. “Just concentrating on making the magic for you, is all.” Kerfuffle slid up a little bit, resting more on the princess’s chest. “Oh, then I’ve gotta make it up to you now! It’d be awfully selfish of me to not do anything!” A very flattered Celestia smirked at Kerfuffle’s eagerness to reciprocate. “Well, I’m open to whatever you-ah!” The pegasus had already started nibbling on Celestia’s neck, giggling with pride as she successfully made the princess moan. Admittedly, the neck nibbling made it a little bit harder to concentrate, but there was no way Celestia was going to ask Kerfuffle to stop. As Kerfuffle started kissing her way up Celestia’s neck, she felt another shift in the magic. It went into her inner folds, stimulating her in ways that her vibrators never could. “OHHHH SWEET CELESTIA!” Hearing ponies cry out her name like that always made Celestia smile a bit. The princess’s moaning had gotten louder as Kerfuffle tenderly kissed and nibbled her neck. Kerfuffle kept working her way up Celestia’s neck with a clear goal in mind, though the constant stops to moan as the alicorn worked her magic meant that it would take a bit longer than expected. “Hnnn! Aaaah! Ooohhh!” Celestia’s magic was still going strong, as it was now shrinking down to focus on one singular point on both ponies’ bodies: their clit. Kerfuffle was right at Celestia’s cheek once the magic hit her. She could feel her whole body practically getting slammed with the most intense pleasure she had ever felt. She quickly locked lips with Celestia as the two screamed their pleasures into each other’s lips. Celestia’s magic soon dissipated, and the two were left lightheaded after their climax. Kerfuffle significantly moreso than Celestia. “Ooooh, I gotta tell the girls about this…!” “Alright, Silverstream, show me what those fingers can do!” Cadence said, spreading her hooves out wide. “Oooh, my pleasure, Princess Cadence!” Silverstream flopped in front of the pony, stretching her fingers in preparation. She started out by putting her hands on Cadence’s inner thighs, using her thumbs to slowly rub the area just outside Cadence’s pussy. “Hnnnnnn!” Even the simple act of her thumbs rubbing got Cadence excited. Her hooves twitched as she felt her crotch getting rubbed. Silverstream used her index finger to trace around Cadence’s outer lips. A simple act for the hippogriff, and yet Cadence had her tongue out, gasping in pleasure. The alicorn found it hard to keep still. Silverstream’s finger felt so much more different than the tip of a hoof. “A-Aaah! Ohhh yeah…t-that feels so niiiice!” Silverstream grinned with delight. She had done this to herself plenty of times. It was fine just teasing her own pussy lips with one finger, but Cadence was reacting like Silverstream normally would around the halfway point. Were ponies this amazed by fingers? Silverstream continued to play with Cadence’s pussy, spreading her lips apart, teasing the inside with her fingertips just to see more of those excited reactions. Cadence did not disappoint. She kept gasping and panting with just the slightest finger touch. It was so exciting to be touched like this, she was on the verge of drooling over getting fingered. Silverstream wanted to go further, but it was just so fun to hear all these moans she was getting already. A lone finger went up to Cadence’s clit, making small little circles with her fingertip. “NNNNF! AAH!” The moans came out loud and fast. Cadence opened her eyes, seeing the excited face on the hippogriff fighting back the urge to giggle. But she couldn’t help herself, it just felt too good! If Cadence was going to be moaning that loud, Silverstream decided that it might as well be for a good reason. She slowly inserted her finger into Cadence’s pussy, easing herself in one knuckle at a time. Cadence shuddered, feeling a wave of pleasure drench her with every bit Silverstream put in. “Ohhhh! Oh gosh!” Silverstream spun her finger around inside Cadence’s walls, spiraling her way out before inserting her finger back in. Cadence tried to show a bit more self-restraint, but the way Silverstream was brushing against her inner folds, she threw her head back and squealed with delight. After a few more rounds of swirling inside Cadence’s pussy, Silverstream curled her finger once it was fully in, rubbing her fingertip against the front wall. “EEEEEEEE!” Cadence immediately put her hooves on Silverstream’s shoulders, pulling her in, staring her right in the eyes. “Do that again.” Silverstream silently nodded, repeating the motions with her finger as long as Cadence wanted. “AAAAH! YES! YESSSSS!” Cadence’s whole body trembled as Silverstream hit her G-spot. She was drooling, sweating, and crying from the pleasure.  And all of this was just from one finger. A curious Silverstream wanted to see what would happen if she doubled it. So as the princess had her eyes closed, screaming in ecstasy, she slid her middle finger in, wondering if Cadence would scream even louder. Though her volume didn’t necessarily increase, Cadence’s intensity sure did. The two fingers rubbing against her inner walls were turning her mind into mush. “AAAH! I…I DON’T KNOW HOW MUCH MORE I CAN TAKE!” With a warning like that, Silverstream decided to add one more finger to the mix. She pressed her thumb to her ring finger, making her pinky stick out. Cadence felt Silverstream’s hand stop, or at the very least, slow down. She looked downwards to check what she was planning. Sticking her tongue out, Silverstream concentrated as she inserted her pinky finger into Cadence’s pink ponut. The princess initially tensed up, but as Silverstream’s finger got deeper into her ass, she went right back to moaning with a renewed fervor, only lasting a few seconds before she squirted all over Silverstream’s hand. It took Princess Cadence a while to get her bearings. “Oooh…that was amaaaaziiing!” she gasped. “Heehee, I’m glad you liked it, Princess! I didn’t know ponies liked being fingered so much!” “Well, I still have to properly pay you back,” Cadence said with a tired laugh, licking her lips. “Mmm, let’s see what I can do for you as the Princess of Lovemaking…” “Hey…mom?” Windy Whistles turned her head. “Yes, Rainbow? Something up?” Rainbow Dash nervously rubbed the back of her neck. “Ok so, I know I kinda told you that I wanted to do my own thing, but I had an idea I wanted to do before this all ended and I kinda sorta need you to help me with it…So-” Windy lifted her daughter up in the air. “Well of course I’d love to help you, Dashie! What’s the plan?” Dash’s plan was straightforward, and was just as easy to execute. “AWWW YEAH!” Rainbow Dash cheered, pumping her hooves in the air. On one bed, Shining Armor and Twilight Velvet laid side by side. On top of them were Windy Whistles and Rainbow Dash respectively. While Windy was excitedly joyriding the Shining’s cock, Rainbow Dash was getting eaten out by Velvet. “Goodness, I didn’t think she’d be this excited!” Windy giggled, taking a slow pace, gently riding up and down on Shining compared to Dash’s more aggressive humping of Velvet’s face. “Yeah, she seems really worked up about this for some reason,” Shining noted, unsure why Rainbow Dash was so gung-ho on getting eaten out by his mom. “WOOOOHOO! IN YOUR FACE, TWILIGHT!” Dash cheered, pointing out the window towards the crystal castle in Ponyville several miles away. “MY FAMILY IS FUCKING YOUR FAMILY!” “Ahhhh…” Shining and Velvet nodded in understanding. “Well, you’re not going to hear me complaining!” Windy smiled. “I think I got a pretty good deal out of this plan of hers…You don’t mind if I go at my own pace, do you, Shining Armor?” Shining winked and playfully saluted. “Heh, not at all, ma’am.” Windy returned the salute with her wings. “Good, we’ll just leave those two to their fun.” Admittedly for Rainbow Dash, the thrill of one-upping Twilight in this one situation they were butting heads over two weeks ago had already worn off, but there was no way she was backing out after doing the whole bit. Plus, Velvet was extremely good with her tongue. Velvet was getting a thrill out of this situation, too. With Rainbow Dash eagerly thrusting her hips, she wanted to go wild; she sloppily ran her tongue all over Dash’s pussy, loudly making moans and hungry noises as she worked. “Ohhhhh my gosh that’s the good stuff…” Rainbow Dash shuddered, her wings twitching on her back. Velvet had her hooves on Dash’s flanks to help hold her in place as she moved her tongue. She gave the pegasus a few squeezes on the thighs as she ran the flat of her tongue up her vulva. “I can’t believe we get to go all night!” Windy remarked, casually bobbing up and down on top of Shining. “Nnnf…y-yeah, it’s pretty great…!” Shining nodded. Windy put her hooves on Shining’s chest, lifting her flank up to take his entire length in one go. “Ahhh! Has someone ever gotten with everyone in one whole night?” Shining looked off to the corner of his vision to try and remember, though it was a little hard to concentrate when there was a mare straddling you. “I…hmm…mmmmaaaybe? Probably? I dunno, usually things get real blurry after the first three groups.” “Oooh, well that sounds like a fun challenge to try sometime!” Windy grinned. “I might just give it a go next year.” Shining Armor couldn’t help but chuckle at the thought. “You don’t think that’d wear you out? I mean even here, that’d be over a dozen partners to go through. And a lot of them might be busy by the time you’re done.” “Ah, good point. And I wouldn’t want them to wait in line for me when they also wanna go out and have fun.” Windy pondered the hypothetical, still excitedly bouncing on Shining. Shining Armor decided to thrust his hips a bit just in case Windy got lost in thought. Velvet plunged her tongue into Rainbow’s marehood, the tip of her tongue brushing against her inner folds. Rainbow’s wings unfurled, arching her back as she let out a moan. “F-Fuuuuck! H-How are you so good at that?!” Velvet brought her muzzle up to wink at the pegasus. “You’re not the first mare I’ve eaten out tonight, Rainbow! Plus, I needed to make sure my skills were good enough for Celestia!” Rainbow Dash didn’t have time to fully think about what Velvet had said before the unicorn started kissing and sucking on her clit, causing the pegasus to shudder out with horny gibberish. Both Windy Whistles and Shining Armor started to move a little faster, letting out a few aroused gasps and grunts. “S-So, I bet you’re glad Princess Celestia made it, huh?” Shining smirked. Windy sheepishly rubbed the back of her head. “Ahaha, that obvious huh?” “Just had a feeling you’d enjoy your time with her.” “Well, what about you?” Windy fired back. “Is there someone else you’ve enjoyed the most tonight? Or maybe someone that you’ve been waiting for?” Shining’s face instantly went red. “C-C’mon, we’re both married, you know how hard answering that question is…!” “Oh fuck oh fuck oh FUUUUUCK!” Dash cried out. Twilight Velvet held onto Dash’s thighs tight, alternating between sucking on her clit and tonguing her inner folds. Rainbow Dash’s wings flapped, almost as if she was trying to take off and take the unicorn with her. All that came out of her mouth was a long, cathartic cry as she came all over Twilight’s face. Velvet let Rainbow go, causing the prismatic pegasus to fall backwards, looking at Windy and Shining still going at a pretty casual pace. She weakly chuckled, pointing at Velvet. “Heh, hurry up. I still want a turn after I’m done with her.” Fluttershy felt her heart pounding in her chest. She had been waiting for this for so long, she was already getting overwhelmed with excitement. “We’re really doing this, huh?” Shining said with a gentle chuckle, playfully prodding Fluttershy’s side. “Please let me have this,” Fluttershy quietly pleaded. She was already trembling with nervous anticipation. “Now now, Shining,” Celestia playfully chided. “There was a lot of hard work that went into this. I think a little bit of indulgence is deserved.” Shining rolled his eyes and smirked. “I suppose so.” His horn started to glow with a magical aura.  Celestia’s own horn lit up with magic, purposefully unfolding her wings as wide as possible. “Are you ready, Fluttershy?” “So ready,” she said, her breathing getting heavier by the second. Fluttershy felt Celestia’s magic aura surrounding her. She let out a squeak as her hooves left the ground, she floated off the ground, her eye level between Shining Armor and Princess Celestia, so she could see mischievous looks on both their faces. Celestia and Shining teleported in a few things to surround Fluttershy. Pill vibrators, brushes, fuzzy rope, and of course, Celestia’s big, fluffy wings popping out on full display. Pomf! Fluttershy couldn’t take the anticipation anymore. “P-Please! Give it to me!” she begged. “I…I want you to tickle meeEEEHEEHEEHEE!” The mare exploded with laughter as most of the tools attacked all at once. “You don’t think that’s a bit much to start out with, Princess?” a concerned Shining asked. Just imagining all those tools touching him at the same time made him shudder. “I don’t think she’s going to complain,” Celestia smirked. “Though we can start off easier when it’s your turn.” “AH! AHAHAHA! EEHEEHEEHEEHEE!” Fluttershy loved every single ticklish sensation her body was currently going through. The little pill vibrators that stuck to the undersides of her hooves, the brushes that stroked her sides and her flanks, the rope that wrapped around her haunches, it was so wonderful and freeing to scream in hysterics. Shining tilted his head as he controlled some of the tools. “Heh, it’s kinda adorable seeing her like this,” he noted, watching the pegasus writhe around in mid-air. The smile never left Fluttershy’s blushing face as the laughs kept pouring out of her. “Indeed, she’s got a very cute laugh…” Celestia mused. Despite all of Fluttershy’s wild kicking, keeping the vibrators on Fluttershy’s hooves was much easier than using magic on herself and Kerfuffle at the same time. Fluttershy’s body was acting out of pure reflex, kicking and rolling and flapping her wings. It was a mean kind of bondage, to be able to move her body freely, and yet unable to escape any of the tickling no matter what she did. That sort of helplessness made the pegasus even more excited. “Hehehe, tickle tickle, Fluttershy!” Shining Armor cooed, starting to get into it. The simple verbal teasing seemed to make the poor ticklish pegasus squeak even more. “I know you’ve been waiting for this…” Celestia said, approaching Fluttershy with her wings outstretched. Fluttershy watched through teary eyes as Celestia brought her wing down on her stomach, slowly brushing all those big soft feathers across her body. She let out a loud squeal, erupting with even heavier laughter. “Careful, Fluttershy,” Celestia teased. “If you can’t keep still, I might just have to use the other wing…” Princess Cadence laid back on one of the beds, taking a breather and relaxing just for a bit. As fun as the night was, she was just as exhausted. “Tapping out already, Princess?” Thorax joked, laying next to the princess. Cadence opened her eyes and smirked. “Just resting my hooves for a bit. I’m not quite done yet.” “Well, that’s good! I’d hate for you to miss out on all the fun!” “The fun that you’re missing out on right now?” Thorax scoffed and waved his hoof. “Ah, it can wait. I just wanted to tell you how great you and Shining Armor did hosting this year!” Cadence modestly blushed. “Oh, I’m sure it’s not that different from all the other years.” “Perhaps, but you still deserve our appreciation regardless,” Miss Harshwhinny said, approaching the two on the bed. “Exemplary work should be recognized after all.” Cadence sheepishly rubbed her hoof. “Well, I’m glad you two think so-” “Well, it’s not just them!” Sandbar said, running alongside Little Strongheart. “Sure, it’s a bit disappointing not having Braeburn with me, but I’ve had a lot of fun tonight!” Sandbar shrugged. “I mean, I got to have sex with Celestia again, and that wouldn’t have been possible without you, so...” Kerfuffle flew in, adding to the crowd. “Oooh, don’t forget me! I mean, I've been having a blast tonight, but the best part is that in the morning, I’ll get to go home to TWO girlfriends! So thanks a bunch for putting this all together!” Seeing all of them grateful for her was almost too much for Cadence to handle. “I…T-Thank you all…!” she said, fighting back tears as her voice cracked. “Buuuut, saying it isn’t quite enough,” Thorax said, wrapping a hoof around Cadence. “I think we all wanna show our thanks.” The emotional moment quickly turned spicy as Cadence found herself surrounded by the crowd. All at once, they started pleasuring her. Thorax peppered her cheek with kisses, Harshwhinny gently nibbled her neck, Little Strongheart kissed her hooves, Kerfuffle tenderly rubbed and massaged her haunches, and Sandbar teased the entrance to her marehood with his cockhead. Cadence let out a tiny squeak of delight, unable to move away from any of the displays of affection from every angle. Each of the sensations gave her an overwhelming feeling of sensual and tender pleasure. Seeing no escape and not wanting to find one, she closed her eyes and let the love overtake her.
