The Student Six are discussing private interests during a sleepover, and eventually learn of a kink Ocellus is into: Nerdification. The changeling gets their friends all intrigued, and they decide to try it out on Gallus. Too bad he doesn't know...
During a sleepover at their clubhouse in the Everfree Forest, the Student Six spend a good amount of the night just chatting as good friends. Topics of discussion eventually become more lewd as the night goes on, until most of them are talking about their private interests. When Ocellus is asked what they're into, the changeling ends up confessing their secret kink: Nerdification.
After learning of the details and Ocellus' reasonings for it, their friends were all very curious. In fact, it didn't take long for the rest of the group to discuss trying it out for real. Gallus became the obvious choice to all of them, since he was an athletic himbo with good looks and a lot of potential for nerdification...
Also, they chose Gallus because was already asleep, and didn't need to know their plans~

It was fairly late in the evening, but there was still much laughter to be heard deep within the Everfree Forest. Despite how wild and dilapidated the flora may have been around the ruins of Equestria’s past, the newly-erected Friendship Tree towered over everything like a glowing beacon. With its luminescent magic and crystalized walls, even the untamed wilderness of the Everfree didn’t faze the occupants safely inside. Even though the treehouse/castle structure looked like something from the discount rack of a children’s toy-shop, all six of the students were enjoying themselves without a care in the world.
In the main space of the castle, the group of friends-turned heroes were all circled around a large table loaded with snacks and playing cards. All of them were nestled up in various seating arrangements, but only one was asleep so far. Gallus, the bright-blue gryphon with yellow-tinted feathers, was sprawled out on an old fainting couch and snoring faintly, clearly out like a light. Across from him were Yona and Sandbar, who were comfortably snuggling in a shared love-seat and wrapped in a blanket. Beside them were Smolder and Silverstream, who were sharing a bowl of popcorn drizzled with an obscene amount of butter. Meanwhile, Ocellus was seated by themself in a large recliner, their face notably blushed with a nervous smile.
“Uuuhhhhh… Heh heh heh…” Their pale-blue face blushed more immensely, until they turned away from the others’ prying eyes. “I-I mean dare! I pick dare…”
Despite their weak attempt to skirt past the rules, Smolder firmly shook her head and grinned all smug. “Ah, ahh, aaaahhhhh…” She raised a claw to wave at the changeling with a dismissive head-shake. “Tsk, tsk, tsk… You said yourself that you can’t switch from a Dare to a Truth. That means the other way around too, Celly~”
“Ugh…” Ocellus slumped deeper in their chair, and whimpered a little with their compacted eyes averted from everyone. “B-But I… I didn’t think you’d ask that…”
“Well, duh. That’s the point of the game…” Smolder scoffed and glanced back at Silverstream with a shrug. “Besides, it’s not like they have to be that truthful. Just a little secret will do us just fine~”
Silverstream nodded happily, while Yona tried tilting their head more sympathetically. “Hmmm, well… Yona can understand why Ocellus is nervous.”
“Yeah, I agree,” noted Sandbar while laying on the yak’s bushy stomach. He pointed back at Smolder to add, “But she has a fair point too. I mean, she didn’t ask what all of your kinks are. Just like… one of them.”
Ocellus still groaned with their expression a bit flattened. However, they were still blushing with a hint of compliance on their face. They looked back at Smolder briefly, which allowed the dragoness to raise a claw in solidarity.
“Okay, how about this: If you promise to tell me what a kink of yours is, I’ll admit one of my own. That fair?”
Ocellus sighed and rolled their eyes, but they didn’t immediately dismiss that offer. They pursed their lips tightly, and pondered the idea before giving a faint shrug. “Well, ummm… Only… O-Only if you promise not to make fun of me.”
“Cross my heart, hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my eye.” Smolder did the whole spiel she learned from Pinkie Pie, and kept a sincere smile pointed at Ocellus. “I promise I won’t judge. Just as long as you promise not to judge what I’m into~”
“Ummm… Okay…” They breathed out pertly, and tried not to blush while alone in their seat. “I… I promise I won’t judge either.”
“Good.” Smolder leaned back in her seat, and stretched her claws behind her head before resting her bare feet on the table between them. “Alright then… I’ll admit that I have a thing for… premature ejaculation. Like, I’d love to see a guy shoot his load before actually getting the chance to do something~”
Ocellus’ eyes widened in an instant, their blush much deeper than before. The others all seemed similarly impressed with Smolder’s admission, save for Gallus who just snored a little louder in response. Sandbar needed to look away from her and think that idea over a bit, but Yona just shrugged with a curious pout of her own. Silverstream giggled playfully, but seemed just as okay with the answer as everyone else. Ocellus blinked a couple times, but eventually smiled and nodded their head. “Oh, well ummm… H-Honestly, I… I can see that working well with what… W-What I like~”
That got the group’s shared interest rather quickly. Smolder sat more upright beside Silverstream, while Yona and Sandbar perked their ears with interest. Oellus winced a little from the group’s newfound interest, but they only needed a breath before sighing through a blush. “Well, I… I don’t know how to say it without an explanation, but errrr… W-What I want to do is…”
They shuffled a little with their hind-legs squirming when they repositioned themself. After letting a brief buzz emit from their wings, they turned their head away with a blush and muttered their answer in embarrassment.
“I… I want to try and… makesomeoneanerd…”
That got Ocellus to close their eyes tightly with a shameful wince. Meanwhile, the others all just blinked and looked at one another in confusion. Silverstream was the first to turn back to them and ask, “Uhhh… I’m sorry, what was that?”
She felt bad for clarifying a confession, but it didn’t seem like any of them understood what the changeling said. Ocellus winced with a harsh exhale, and hung their head before muttering a little more articulately. “Nnnnghhh… I… I want to… t-turn someone into a… a nerd…”
Ocellus refused to look back at any of them after that remark, and just left that idea lingering in the air. All of them seemed rightfully puzzled, but none of them knew what to say in response. Yona seemed particularly unsure when she narrowed her eyes on the changeling and blinked a couple times. “Hmmm… Yona confused. What… What do Ocellus mean by, ‘turning’ someone?”
“Actually, yeah,” added Sandbar before raising a hoof. “Not asking negatively or anything. I just mean, like… do you mean hypnosis or something?”
“I… I dunno…” They were looking a little hesitant to keep speaking, and shuffled more worriedly in their seat. They didn’t seem too sure themself, but they tried to point out, “I just… I-I always see movies or books where someone all… all dorky is turned to someone that others consider ‘beautiful,’ but like… I always liked the opposite of that…”
Smolder’s eyes widened, and they let out a soft “Ohhhhhh” to get everyone’s focus. The others saw her point at Ocellus with a sudden nod. “Oh yeah! I think I get what you mean, like… In that one movie Sandbar recommended where that nerdy girl became prom queen?”
“E-Exactly!” Ocellus cringed from how quickly they responded to that question, but they breathed out slowly enough to continue without much pause. “Ummm… Y-Yeah, I… I’ve always wondered how… h-how easily I could do that to someone…”
Ocellus tried to look down at their hooves to avoid any uncomfortable eye contact, but they didn’t seem to notice how peculiar their friends’ silence had become. Smolder was rubbing her chin in thought, while Silverstream glanced over at the happy couple. Yona and Sandbar looked at each other briefly, with Sandbar deciding to ask the next question. “So… Did you want it to happen naturally or something?”
“Well, I didn’t want to force it, if that’s what you mean…” Ocellus perked their head back up, but still kept their sights elsewhere. “I mean… I don’t want to say ‘Gaslighting’ or anything like that. M-More like… coercion or something?”
“Huh…” Smolder leaned forward with her claw still beneath her chin. “So, basically you want to make someone… slowly become a nerd without realizing it?”
“Wait, what kind of nerd?” Silverstream tilted her head curiously. “Like, what sort of look would you--”
“Suspenders, hiked-up pants, dress shirts…” Ocellus blushed heavily from those examples coming out of their mouth so quickly. However, they only needed to take a breath before closing their eyes and continuing with a light shiver. “Hnnnghhh… Uhh… a-also thick glasses, and… a bow-tie… tightie-whities~”
They shuddered a bit from that last one, and looked as red as a tomato from how hot their face had gotten. Meanwhile, the other four all stared at them with their eyes notably widened, and a couple of them blushing slightly as well. Smolder glanced back at Silverstream for a second, and shrugged from the mental image that popped up in her head. “Hmmmm… so like, a total stereotype of a nerd, huh…”
“Wow…” Silverstream wasn’t too familiar with societal norms above water, but she couldn’t help pouting with interest to that idea as well. “Hmmm… honestly, all those things sound kinda cute~”
Ocellus looked up at her for a second, but quickly away again when Yona spoke up. “So, Ocellus, Yona wants to ask… what makes nerds so attractive?”
Ocellus closed their eyes to get their thoughts in order. After breathing out, they gave a meager shrug and admitted, “Well, I… I’m not sure. I guess it’s just the… the innocence of someone looking so prim and proper while… w-while not seeming to care how they look either, you know? Like…
“Instead of caring about fashion trends of style, they just… they focus on pure utility and purpose overall. A-And all the while, they remain looking so clean and… and easy to exploit. And more than that, I just… I want to be able to make someone turn into that~”
All four of them were staring at Ocellus more intently, but none of them seemed too puzzled or unsure of their friend’s kink. In fact, all of them were blushing a bit more notably now. But since they were all staying silent, Ocellus just kept going while looking away from them and blushing like a love-stricken schoolfilly.
“My… My biggest desire is to find someone… Someone who looks perfect already, and could easily be a hunk in any class, and then… I slowly get them to try nerdier things, and… and to look nerdier when time goes on. And no matter how they looked, I would always compliment them and make them feel comfortable… all the while, I would purposely make them look more and more like a total nerd~”
Ocellus paused long enough to take a deep breath, and sighed with a more content smile after getting all that out. That’s when they finally looked back at their friends, and froze with their eyes widened in surprise. All of Ocellus’ friends were staring back at them with looks of… intrigue, perhaps? Or maybe a shared feeling of contemplation on the ‘What If’ of it all. Either way, Oellus was left a little surprised by their silent reception.
“Uhhh… Did… Did I say too much?” They winced worriedly after that question came out. However, Smolder was the first to shake her head with her brows raised high.
“No, no… No, I’m just thinking, like…” She hated to admit it, but her friend’s enthusiasm was planting a heck of a worm in her own mind. She looked over at Yona and Sandbar to point out, “You gotta admit, that’s… that’s interesting, isn’t it?”
“Yeah, it… It honestly is…” Yona was nodding with an equally piqued look as her friend. Ocellus blinked a couple times, and looked around with more notice of their friends’ strangely non-judgmental feelings on the matter. Yona eventually said with a huff, “Welp, now Yona has that idea in her head too~”
Ocellus’ brows raised up even more, while their blush started to deepen.
“Honestly, I… I kinda wanna see that happen…” Sandbar wasn’t sure why he said that, but he couldn’t help shrugging with a coy smirk that matched his girlfriend’s. “Like, if someone could actually be convinced to dress like that, I… I’d like to see how far that could go~”
“Well, I mean…” Silverstream was the next to speak up, but her comment was bold enough to make everyone look back at her in an instant:
“... honestly, something like that sounds like a group project.”
All four of the friends stared back at the hippogriff, but none of their eyes were as wide as Ocellus’. They were gawking at Silverstream in total awe, and let out a brief chitter before muttering faintly. “A… A g-group… project?~”
“Well, why not?” She smiled much more casually than the others, and just seemed happy to explain herself to the others. “I mean, from the sound of it, Ocellus might have some trouble turning someone into a nerd on their own. And if it’s a group effort, maybe it’d be easier to convince someone to stay with it. Like… peer-pressure or something!”
“Ehhh, I don’t like that word,” noted Sandbar with a slight wince. “But still, I… I can see the logic there.”
“Hmmmm…” Smolder turned back towards Ocellus, and smirked when she saw how badly they were blushing from the idea. “You know, I… I kinda like that idea too~”
“... you do?” Ocellus was trying not to get their hopes up, but their breathing was becoming more rapid.
“Well, I mean… it’d be fun to at least try.” She then shrugged and looked back at the others. “Although, I doubt we can actually do anything for real--”
Right at that moment, the sound of a loud snore interrupted the dragoness, and planted a seed in everyone’s head. All five friends turned their attention back to the fainting couch, where their friend Gallus had been sleeping the whole time. He never woke up to overhear Ocellus’ confession, nor was he able to see how wide-eyed the group became at that moment.
Smolder stared over at Ocellus, who nearly had a heart-attack when they realized the dragon was thinking the same thing. So did Silverstream, as judging by the giddy smile that spread across her blushing beak. Yona and Sandbar also looked intrigued, and took turns staring at the gryphon across from them while whispering in each other’s ears. None of them said anything for a couple minutes, and were left with their thoughts as they became more detailed and… contemplative.
Eventually, while the gryphon remained dead-asleep and unaware, the group slowly turned their sights back towards Ocellus.
The changeling was now seated fully upright in the chair, their compacted eyes darting between their friends and Gallus nearby. They took a long moment staring the gryphon up and down, admiring his body and realizing just how easy it could be… Or at least, how easily it seemed in their head.
When they looked back at the others, Ocellus could see that all four of them were blushing as badly as themself. The changeling had no idea what to say, but their muzzle was already open when they looked back at the dozing gryphon. Ocellus remained silent for a moment, but took a breath before deciding to ask a simple question:
“... Guys, do you… D-Do you want to make Gallus a nerd?~”
Ocellus never thought they’d ask such a question out-loud, let alone receive any positive reception. But in that moment, they couldn’t have been happier to see all four of them nod their heads with enthusiastic blushes.
Ocellus was originally worried about how well their friends could handle the idea, but they were pleasantly surprised with the plans that each of them had in mind for Operation: Nerd Bird.
Despite how long they fantasized about the idea, it was great to receive outside input from others. A lot of discussions had to be made amongst all of them, including agreeing to certain white-lies or working together to effectively gaslight the gryphon. Ocellus almost felt bad for how giddy their friends were getting from the idea, but at the same time they couldn’t have been more excited. Gallus might be a great friend to all of them, but they couldn’t deny how adorable he’d look as a little geek~
By the time Gallus awoke the next morning, he didn’t seem to be the slightest bit aware of his friends’ shared agreement; of course, given what they were planning to do, it was probably for the best that he was left to himself. All of them acted just as they had before, but it was clear from Ocellus’ smile that they were all thinking the same thing. All the while, Gallus just ate from his bowl of cereal like nothing was amiss, not noticing the peculiar stares that each of his friends were giving him when he wasn’t looking. Fortunately, since the gryphon was in such high spirits after such a gratifying rest, he didn’t notice anything being different when he and the others returned to town after breakfast.
“Aaahhhhhhh~” Gallus was the first to land back in Ponyville’s town square, and made a big stretch with his back arched inward like a housecat. Meanwhile, Smolder and Silverstream helped escort Ocellus down to the ground safely while they were shifted into the form of a massive wingless dragon; Yona and Sandbar were riding on the changeling’s back, and were quick to get off as soon as they were back on the ground. Ocellus shifted back to their regular form before gasping with a strong shudder. “Mnnnnghhhh… J-Jeeze, I keep forgetting how much size-alteration takes out of me…”
“Hey, you’re getting better at it, though.” Smolder patted Ocellus’ back with a claw while smiling warmly. “You even got the scale patterns along the back right this time! I’m impressed.”
“Hmph, t-thanks…” Ocellus blushed through their sheepish smile, and took a moment to look back at Gallus. The gryphon was polishing his claws against the tuft of his chest-fur, before blowing the talons with his beak to see how well they shine. Ocellus took that moment to glance back at the others for a split-second, who were all smirking with cheeky stares back at the gryphon. Ocellus took that opportunity to take a quick breath before asking Gallus, “Hey, uhhh… Would you mind coming with me around town for a few errands? I’d rather not be all alone after the magic leaves me that light-headed.”
“Oh, sure thing!” Gallus smiled with a carefree nod. “Yeah, I don’t have much planned for today anyway, so it’s totally fine.”
“Oh, great!~” Oellus’ wings buzzed the tiniest bit in excitement, but they settled down in a second to only show a thankful smile. “Well, ummm… I was meaning to visit the optometrist to see if my prescription is filled out. A-Are you alright with coming with me?”
Gallus just shrugged and said, “Uhhh, sure. I don’t see why not…”
After he and Ocellus gave a quick goodbye to their friends, Gallus followed the changeling before he could notice anything feeling slightly amiss. Ocellus took the lead with the gryphon close behind, and beamed excitedly when they saw the clinic at the end of the block. Much to their excitable glee, the sign hanging from the shop’s front window read in bold letters, “Bring a Friend for a Free Consultation.”
“Hmph~” Ocellus already knew exactly what to do, but they had to keep from smirking too devilishly. They kept a casual demeanor when they opened the door for Gallus, and let him walk inside the shop first.
“Oh, there you are, Ocellus!” The chipper receptionist behind the front desk waved Ocellus and Gallus inside with a smile. Gallus walked over to one of the seats in the waiting room, and began to browse through an old magazine and get himself comfortable. Meanwhile, Ocellus walked up to the counter to fill out the sign-in form. “I’ll just tell the doctor you’re here so your prescription can be refilled.”
“Alright, thank you.” After filling out their signature on the form, Ocellus hummed to themself and glanced back at Gallus. The gryphon was already glossing through an issue of ‘Equestrian News Weekly’ from at least a year or two ago, so he likely wasn’t paying attention to whatever they were doing. Ocellus took a second to admire him before smirking to themself for a second. They then turned back to the receptionist, just as she was about to find the doctor, and quickly added, “Oh, I was meaning to ask: Is that free consultation deal still available?”
“As a matter of fact, it is.” She looked back at Ocellus curiously, and then over at the gryphon they came in with. “Hmmm… Is this for him?”
Gallus didn’t even have enough time to perk his head up when he heard Ocellus say with a nod, “Yes, I’d like for my friend Gallus to get a free checkup.”
“Wait, what?!”
“Hnnnghhhh…”
Even though he just agreed to go with Ocellus to pick up some contacts, Gallus somehow found himself inside one of the private rooms to get a consultation himself. He tried to assure both Ocellus and the receptionist that his eyesight was just fine, but it was near-impossible to convince them after admitting he never got an official test done. He knew that Ocellus was just looking out for him as a friend, especially since he mentioned not having any health insurance a while back. But now with the changeling out in the waiting room, Gallus was starting to worry when he found himself struggling to read some text across the room.
“Uhhhhh… ‘M’... ‘B’, no that’s a ‘P’... wait, is it?” Gallus wasn’t sure what was going on, but he was finding it difficult to read even the largest letters on the chart before him. He wasn’t sure what the heck could’ve happened recently, since he clearly recalled reading words much smaller from the chalkboard in classes with ease. Although, the reversed colors may have been doing something to his vision to make the letters appear blurrier in this well-lit room.
“Ummm… ‘Q’... ‘X?’” Gallus narrowed his eyes even more, while the doctor standing beside him merely shook his head. The older unicorn was reading through a chart and sucking some air through his teeth. Gallus tried not to cringe, but he knew he was worried when he noticed he was only on the third row on the chart. The gryphon hung his head and tried not to look up at him. “Jeeze, what the heck is going on…”
“Hmmm… Well, sometimes it can be difficult for someone to realize they have a vision problem…” The stallion jotted down some notes with the pen floating in his aura, but turned off his horn after moving the clipboard to the nearby counter. “But I have to say, I’m very glad you were sent to me for this checkup. Looking through the test results, there’s no doubt in my mind that you need glasses.”
“Ugh!” Gallus threw down his head with a pained sigh. He covered his eyes with a claw and struggled not to wince too painfully. “Well, that’s just great…”
“Well, if it helps…” The Doctor kept a warm smile when he trotted over to a large glass display on the wall, which was full of glasses in various styles and frame-colors. “I happen to have these starter pairs for ponies, free of charge.” After double-checking the prescription numbers, he went to one of the shelf’s lower rows and studiously scrolled through the pairs available.
Gallus actually breathed out with his eyes closed, grateful to hear that last part. “Oh, thank goodness… I’m not gonna lie, I was worried about how much I’d have to pay.”
“That’s what these free consultations are all about…” He smiled when he lit up his horn and floated out a large, blocky pair of square-rimmed glasses. The frames were ridiculously thick, looking more like something medical-grade than any glasses a pony would voluntarily wear. The glass in the lenses was nearly half an inch thick, but the brace holding the two eye-pieces together was a little too thin to be trusted. Before Gallus could reel back or complain about the type selected, the glasses were floated over to rest right atop the gryphon’s beak. “Alright, just a moment and… there!”
Gallus blinked a couple times, with his blinking lids magnified through the lenses. He looked back at the board across the room, and gasped when he saw all the letters clear as day. What used to be a bunch of blurry partial-shapes, were now crystal-clear from top to bottom. Gallus pointed right at it and blurted out, “Ohh! That’s it! ‘G, V, W, C, T, Y, L!’”
“Aha! You got the whole bottom row!” The stallion smiled happily, and took the board off the wall so Gallus could look at it himself. The gryphon was staring at the chart all mesmerized, not even caring that he was still wearing those obnoxiously thick glasses over his face. The Doctor smiled at how happy Gallus was looking, and took that moment to subtly hide the other board he had replaced from the wall earlier. Unlike the chart Gallus was currently holding, the one that had previously been hanging was purposely blurred beyond comprehension, and tucked behind the wastebin so the gryphon couldn’t see it.
“Holy… W-Wow…” Gallus put down the board, and turned to look over at a nearby mirror. He jolted with a shocked gasp, and his beak tightened immensely when he saw the blocky square glasses over his eyes. His pupils were expanded out through the lenses, making him appear more bug-eyed than expected. He groaned and tried to look away, but was met with the expectant smile from the Doctor standing in wait.
“I know it might be a big thing to adjust to, but I’m really grateful to help you with your eyesight, Mister Gallus.” He looked the gryphon up and down, and gave a light shrug before admitting, “And to be perfectly honest, I think the glasses suit you quite well~”
“Uhhh… really?” He turned back to his reflection, and his head reeled back again like his body was rejecting the image he was seeing. He reached up and cautiously adjusted the black, blocky frame against the bridge of his beak. He still winced, but could only breathe out in trepidation and hope for the best. After all, it wasn’t like he could afford new glasses right now, and this was better than flying around half-blind. So with a reluctant shrug, all he could do was say, “Ummm… I-If you say so…”
Gallus may have not had the same opinion as the Doctor, but he tried his best to handle his new head-wear without too much woe. He blushed a little when he opened his beak, and tried to give a smile to his reflection. But alas, as soon as he saw his teeth for a second, he quickly clamped his beak back shut and grimaced. His glasses made him look like such a dork when he smiled, although pouting didn’t really help either.
“Hmmm, one moment, Gallus… The Doctor walked around to the gryphon’s front, and tilted his head with a concerned hum. “Huh… Young man, could you show me your teeth again?”
“Uhhhh… Gallus blushed even heavier, and averted his eyes while keeping his beak shut.
The Doctor took only a moment before asking flatly, “Gallus… Have you ever been to a dentist before?”
The gryphon sighed with his eyes closed, and guiltily shook his head.
“Well, if that’s the case, I’ll schedule you for an emergency dental checkup with Minuette. And don’t worry about payment, I’ll make sure she takes a look at you for free. Just wait for me out in the waiting room, and I’ll get Ocellus for you.”
Gallus tried to nod, but he was too embarrassed about that admission to say anything in defense. Not wanting to turn down a free dentist, Gallus merely followed the Doctor out of the office with his new pair of glasses. After a meager thanks, the gryphon went down the hall with a grimaced beak, and his eyes darting back and forth within those bulky frames.
The door to the office slowly closed back shut, and the knob locked just before the “Doctor” could sigh in relief. “Oh, thank Celestia he bought that~”
The “stallion” quickly ignited up in bright-green flames, and returned back to Ocellus’ regular form. The changeling quickly went to work, and tossed the botched vision-chart into the paper-shredder before the real doctor could find it. They also tossed the papers they had tucked in the clipboard, which were just a couple doodles of Gallus in Ocellus’ dream-outfit for later on. All of the “documents” and “tests” related to Gallus’ vision were destroyed in a matter of seconds, leaving no paper-trail of the gryphon’s visit or consultation. Even the glasses taken from the display case were an obvious plant, since there were no missing pairs from any of the shelves now. “Okay, that should do it…”
Ocellus double-checked everything before unlocking the door, and walking back out into the hallway. It was at that moment that the real Doctor emerged from the back-room with Ocellus’ bag of contacts in his aura. He greeted Ocellus happily enough, but there wasn’t anything much to be said aside from confirming Ocellus’ next prescription. And since the receptionist had just went out to lunch during Gallus’ “appointment”, there was no need to remind the Doctor of anything before leaving with the gryphon out front.
“Ooooohhh~” Ocellus’ face lit up with glee when they saw Gallus standing outside the clinic with his new nerdy glasses still on. He tried not to look back at her antsy grin, and just grumbled under his breath. The changeling was quick to get in front of him and admire the glasses up close. “Wow, are those your new glasses, Gallus? They look nice~”
“Mnnnghhh…” He tried lowering his head, but nearly dropped his glasses when they slipped off his beak. He groaned and quickly put them back on, just barely catching them before they could shatter on the ground. Ocellus bit their lip, and made a mental note to buy some masking tape for Gallus’ glasses before they inevitably break. In the meantime, they kept a sincerely warm smile while Gallus avoided making eye-contact. “Ummm… Wh… What did the Doctor tell you?” he asked in a weak and embarrassed voice.
“Well…” Ocellus made sure to pause briefly enough to appear casual, but they already knew exactly what to say to Gallus in that moment. “He mentioned that it would be best to wear those glasses at all times, or until your vision improves. Also, you have a dentist appointment later this afternoon with Minuette.”
“Well, that’s something, I guess…” Gallus scratched the back of his neck with an impressed shrug. “Heh, I wouldn’t have guessed I’d be doing so mu--Wait, this afternoon!? You mean TODAY!?”
“Oh dear…”
The minty-blue unicorn winced and stared down at the gryphon with sympathy. Gallus cringed while seated in the dentist’s chair, immediately regretting opening his beak. He tried to keep himself silent on the matter, but he couldn’t help lowering his head to mutter a weak, “S-Sorry…”
“Oh, don’t apologize!” Minuette instantly waved her hoof apologetically. “Trust me, it’s not your fault. Ocellus explained everything to me outside, and I’m not judging at all. I’m just glad I was able to get your teeth looked at now before it got more serious.”
Gallus looked even more worried with how the dentist was explaining things, but he knew better than to speak up against a professional. Not to mention, he couldn’t really say much when he never visited a dentist back in the Gryphon Kingdom. He knew he had a few cavities here and there, and a couple of them were slightly crooked, but none of those things ever affected him in his daily life. Nevertheless, he tried to be grateful that Ocellus arranged this emergency checkup on the optometrist’s behalf.
Unlike the previous errand meant for Gallus, Ocellus remained out of the office entirely and focused on getting the appointment covered by the School of Friendship’s insurance. Medical checkups may have been financially covered by the school for all students, but dental plans were quite the bitch to work around. Fortunately, Ocellus had more than enough paperwork and certification to ensure Gallus wouldn’t need to pay a single bit for this necessity. It also helped that behind his beak, the gryphon actually had teeth in bad enough condition for this checkup to be a legitimate emergency; Ocellus didn’t plan for that, but they chalked that up to a sign that this was meant to be.
Back in the office, Gallus gulped after hearing the bad news. “S-Seriously?!”
“I’m afraid so…” Minuette pointed to the X-Ray chart on the wall, which gave a prime view of the gryphon’s dental work. He squinted his eyes through his massive glasses, but he could still see the irregular symmetry in his teeth all over. He winced from how badly it looked compared to other examples posted up on the nearby wall. She took a moment to let him see the charts before speaking bluntly. “I’m sorry, Gallus. I really am, but in my professional opinion, you absolutely need braces to help repair those teeth.”
Gallus groaned and lowered his head, which nearly slipped his glasses off his beak. He frantically held them against his head and tried to sputter out, “B-But I don’t have health insurance! Lady, you have to understand, I can’t pay for something that exp--”
“Oh, no no no!” She quickly threw her hooves up and shook her head to stop his pleading. “Oh, don’t worry, this won’t be charged to you. My receptionist is getting the paperwork confirmed with Ocellus right now, and this certainly qualifies as an ‘Emergency’ situation for my own assessment. I promise you, these braces will be paid by the school. Not by you.”
That seemed to settle his nerves a bit, and he sighed in slight relief. Still, his face was rather blushed from the thought of something so sudden and noticeable for his own face. “Uhhh, so… H-How long will this actually take?”
“Well, if it helps, you’ll be put under for the whole duration…” Minuette used her magic to float out a large canister of gas meant to incapacitate patients. “But with my magic, I can easily get your teeth repaired, straightened, and locked in braces in under an hour.”
Despite that surprisingly fast estimate, Gallus still looked rightfully nervous. “And uhhh… h-how long would I need to wear them for?”
“Oh, well…” She couldn’t hide the discomfort from such a question, and she looked away before answering truthfully. “Realistically, I would say… at least six months under perfect circumstances, but… in your case it might be longer than a year, or even two…”
Gallus’ beak dropped. “WHAT?!”
“Which is why we need to have this handled sooner than later.” Minuette could sympathize with his reaction, and was quick to state, “Think of it like this: If you wear braces now, you’ll likely be able to graduate with perfect teeth. I think that’s a fairly good goal to work for, don’t you think?”
Gallus wanted to say something, but froze after opening his beak. After a moment, he reluctantly sighed and shrugged his head. “Ehhh… I guess so…”
“All you need to do is sign this form…” Minuette floated over a clipboard and pen so he could sign the disclosure statement. “This is just so I have permission to use gas and have you asleep for the procedure. Is that alright?”
“Yeah, I suppose…” Gallus read through the paperwork, and reluctantly signed the bottom of the form. This all felt a bit sudden for him, but he wasn’t going to question a procedure this pricey if it’s being given for free. Besides, he really didn’t want to graduate with busted-up teeth. After handing the clipboard back, Gallus hesitantly asked, “So, ummm… these braces won’t be that noticeable, will they?”
Minuette tried to keep a smile, but it was far too strained for Gallus to find comfort from it. Instead of answering his question, she just awkwardly left the office with the paperwork. “Uhhh… Lemme go check on Ocellus’ forms for a second…”
As soon as she left him alone, the gryphon just gulped worriedly. “... uh oh…”
One Hour Later
Ocellus sat in the waiting room patiently, smiling contentedly in anticipatory silence. They were told that Minuette finished the procedure a while ago, but they were sure Gallus needed some time to wake up from the gas. They were also sure that he needed to process what he was wearing, since his dental health warranted something more heavy-duty than basic retainers. In most circumstances, Ocellus would feel really bad for someone being forced into something so obscene and unavoidable. But in Gallus’ case, all they could do was control their breathing while their heart thundered in their chest.
“Uhhh… O-Othellus?”
His voice came out weak from behind the corner, hidden in the hallway off from the waiting room. Ocellus quickly sprung up and stood with a smile they tried their hardest to maintain. “Oh, h-hey there! I ummm… I hope everything went alright.”
“Uhhh… I uhhhh… I don’t think tho…” As if that lisp wasn’t telling enough, Ocellus could see the results clear as day when he slowly walked into view. Even with his head hung low, the thick metal ring strapped to his head wrapped all around from his beak to the back of his neck. He tried his hardest not to look at them while his beak was slightly open. When he breathed in, his beak opened enough for Ocellus to see the thick metal braces that covered every single one of his teeth. The braces and headgear were more than a little overkill, but they absolutely matched Gallus’ blocky glasses in Ocellus’ eyes.
“Oh… Oh, w-wow…” They breathed out shakily with a heavy blush, nearly swooning from the new appearance their friend was sporting. They were grateful Gallus was looking away from them, not noticing how much they loved it. He huffed and closed his eyes, which were magnetized through the lens. Ocellus breathed out well enough to ask casually, “Are… Are you going to be alright?”
“M… M-Maybe?” He breathed out hoarsely and pulled his head up, wincing from the feel of all that metal in his beak. “Mmphhh… Th… The dentitht thaid that… That I have to wear brathes for a leath a year or two…”
“Oh… d-dear…” Ocellus was grateful to give that response as quickly as they did, despite their hesitance. They reached out and placed a hoof on his shoulder for support. “Hey, it’ll be alright… I promise, I won’t make fun of you at all. And neither will any of the others.”
Gallus seemed far less than confident in that response. He stared back at them flatly for a moment, but he wasn’t able to close his beak all the way with his headgear in place. Because of that, even the faintest breath was slightly wheezy, and was yet another side-effect of the braces to match his new lisp. Those ailments, combined with his glasses, made the gryphon struggle to believe the changeling’s giddy smile. “Uhhh… A-Are you thure, Othelluth?”
“Yes, Gallus,” they said with utmost confidence, which easily hid the adoration in Ocellus’ eyes. “I’m absolutely sure that things will be just fine~”
It was hard enough for them to stay composed with the newly dorkified gryphon right there, so they were quick to escort Gallus out of the building after the forms were signed. A lot of time may have passed already, but there was still plenty for them and the others to do before Gallus’ transformation is complete. Fortunately, Ocellus already knew what each of their friends were planning to do to better prepare their friend over the weekend; and since the glasses and braces were the hardest parts, they couldn’t wait to see how the others contributed…
It had only been a half-hour since Gallus left his dentist appointment, but it felt far longer while walking through Ponyville in his eye-catching headwear. The glasses were bad enough, especially when the blocky frames kept nearly sliding off his beak and making him stumble every couple steps. But with the additional braces and headgear latched around his head like a planet’s rings, the gryphon felt like he was wearing a big arrow for ponies to look at him. He tried his best to hang his head and avoid eye contact, but he could definitely feel the stares from ponies he walked past. By the time he got the chance to meet up with his other friends, he was blushing hard in a mixture of embarrassment and dread.
“Hey there, guys!” Unlike the gryphon beside them, Ocellus was smiling brightly when the two reached a large field beside the School of Friendship. Yona and Silverstream had decided to set up a little picnic display in the field, with a large plaid blanket rolled out and a wicker basket full of goodies. Of course, as soon as they got a good look at Gallus, the two went wide-eyed and blushy while frozen in shock. Ocellus was quick to pull him in by their side, eliciting a nervous whimper from him while they spoke on his behalf. “Sorry for taking so long. I decided to take Gallus here to the Optometrist and the Dentist, and well…”
Ocellus tried not to chuckle, but was less successful in hiding their amused smirk from their friends. Fortunately, Gallus didn’t seem to notice while looking away from all of them with a shameful grimace. Meanwhile, Yona and Silverstream were blushing hard while looking at his new headwear. The two glanced over at the changeling, who bit their lip while smiling giddily and giving an eager nod.
“I… I-I uhhh…” Gallus sighed and pulled his head back up, but he didn’t look at his friends directly when he spoke with an obvious lisp. “I wath offered a free con… conthultation at both platheth, and they… they found I needed glatheth and bratheth…”
The hippogriff and yak were clearly stunned, not expecting their friend to set up such a drastic change so quickly. Even Ocellus had to give a light shrug, seemingly just as surprised as they were. “Y-Yeah, uhhh… I’m honestly really glad I got him to the dentist when I did. Although, I kinda wish I knew you two were setting up a picnic first.”
“O-Oh, don’t worry!” Silverstream was the first to pull herself out of her flustered state and speak with a smile. “I’m sure we can find something for him.”
“Yeah, totally! Come, Yona and Silverstream welcome you!”
Yona made sure there was enough room on the blanket for Gallus and Ocellus, with the gryphon sitting down first. He was still blushing awkwardly, but was grateful that neither of them were saying much about his appearance. Due to the metal prongs sticking out of his beak and attached to his headgear, his breaths came out in faint, whimpering wheezes. He was rubbing his arm with a claw pensively, clearly uncomfortable with how he looked. But before he could dwell too hard about any of that, he was handed a sugary soda from Yona.
“Yona thinks Gallus looks really sharp!” Her smile and cheery tone were genuine enough to catch Gallus off-guard, but he nodded a little and accepted the drink with the weakest smile. He ended up fumbling a little with the bottle at first, and needed to hold it at an awkward angle to get a sip without it interfering with his headgear. He struggled for a moment with a little bit dribbling out the corner of his beak, but nothing too comical. None of the friends giggled or said anything about it, which Gallus appreciated greatly.
“Uhhh… r-really?” After finishing his sip, Gallus raised a brow in her direction. “You think tho?”
“Yeah, totally!~” Silverstream chirped in agreement, still blushing a little as she admired the gryphon’s new appearance. “Although, ummm… I bet an outfit could help out a lot with that kind of look.”
Yona and Ocellus both nodded happily, while Gallus just shrugged with an indifferent look of his own. “Uhhh… you thure?” he asked with a raised brow. “I mean… Cloath are a bit much, aren’t they?”
“Well, it could help distract from the glasses,” noted Ocellus, who was trying their hardest not to scootch in closer to him too obviously. “Although, it might be easier to get button-up shirts instead of t-shirts. I’m not sure if the neck-lines could stretch over that headgear~”
Ocellus shivered with a bitten lip, but kept themself in control while beside him. Gallus needed a moment before shugging in agreement, seeing their point. “Hmmm, good catch.”
“Ooh! You know what else?” Silversteam waited until Gallus began eating some pudding so he couldn’t speak up, and motioned to the headgear as a conversation point. “You should maybe consider possibly… changing your vocabulary a bit as well? You know, to counteract that lisp you have now…”
Gallus hung his head with an embarrassed groan, which made him clumsily catch his glasses when they slipped off his beak. Ocellus breathed out shakily, and remained patient to see how long those frames would last; They almost wished they pre-cracked the middle part already, but they were hopeful it could happen naturally soon enough. Meanwhile, the gryphon tried closing his beak to hide his braces, and kept his eyes pointed elsewhere. “Ith… Ith it that obviouth?”
All three of them nodded rather quickly, but Gallus thankfully only saw Silverstream’s reaction. She quickly added with a raised claw, “It’s just a suggestion, like… It shouldn’t be too hard to find terms that don’t use the letter ‘S’ like…” She paused long enough to make it look like she hadn’t already thought this all out. After a roll of her eyes, she looked back at Gallus and said, “Maybe… ‘Golly Gee’?”
Gallus narrowed his eyes, although they still looked huge behind his glasses. One of his brows raised up behind the frame when he asked flatly, “... Theriouthly? Golly Gee?”
Yona waited only a second before eagerly raising up a hoof. “Yona likes it!”
“Yeah, me too!~” Ocellus nestled in a little closer beside his side for added support. “It doesn’t have the lisp, so it sounds way better than ‘Theriouthly.’”
Silverstream and Yona giggled a little from that slight imitation of Gallus’ lisp, which made him blush a little deeper. But at the same time, that point made him consider it for a second or two in thought. As much as he’d hate to admit it, having a lisp would be horrible for his social game; and if speaking differently could help hide it, maybe a new term or two couldn’t hurt…
Gallus wasn’t sure how to say the term sincerely, but he meagerly shrugged his head and tried muttering out, “Uhh… G… Golly Gee?”
“Yeah, that sounds great!” Ocellus gave him a supportive pat on the back. “That sounds good for you!”
“I agree! I’m sure a few more could be used like… ‘Wowzers’! Or ‘swell’!”
“But, thoth have an ‘Eth’ in them too…” Gallus seemed a bit puzzled by their choices, but Ocellus remained by his side to gaslight support.
“I think words like those could work with your lisp. I mean, it’s unavoidable for the most part. What’s important is that you don’t let it hinder your speech overall. You just gotta… work around the metal and make your words count.”
“Hmmm…” Gallus tapped his chin with a claw while pondering their words. “... Maybe I thould get a thethauruth or something…”
The changeling’s wings buzzed all antsily when they said, “I-I can get you a thesaurus on the way back to school!~”
“Oh, ummm… thanth.” Gallus smiled happily, not seeming to notice how much he just turned Ocellus on.
“Let’s see… ‘Jinkies’... ‘Holey Moley’... Ooh, or ‘Willackers!’” Yona blinked a couple times, before adding in revelation, “Actually, maybe Gallus shouldn’t try swearing. Yona thinks alternate words work better with braces~”
Ocellus’ face lit up. “Yeah, that’s a great idea! I mean…” They took a moment to turn back towards the confused-looking Gallus, who had just finished his first pudding cup; Yona subtly placed a new cup in his claw, already opened so he could keep eating. “... well, since the braces might give a preconceived notion of your character, maybe swearing wouldn’t sound as… intimidating?”
Gallus wanted to say something, but paused and thought that point over as well. As much as he’d hate to admit it, saying “Fuck” or “Shit” in his headgear would just make him sound like an idiot. He breathed out more hoarsely, but tried to counteract by asking, “What, tho I thould thay thinth like… Goth Darnit?”
“Yeah, that’s perfect!” Silverstream had to stop herself from smiling so wide after that giddy response. “O-Or like, just cutesier terms as a whole would help out a lot. If it helps, we could maybe… help you with that?”
Gallus wasn’t sure what to think, but he was feeling somewhat better about his headgear and glasses by the time he ate through his third pudding cup. He hadn’t even noticed how much Yona and Silverstream were getting him to indulge, most likely to wane him away from physical activity later on. But for now, the “picnic” was continuing just as planned when Gallus begrudgingly shrugged his head. “Uhhh, well, I… I gueth tho?”
“Ooh, great!” Yona smiled enthusiastically with a blush that nearly matched Ocellus’. She then decided to ask the gryphon, “So… If Gallus wanted to say something is interesting, he would say…”
Her brows raised up expectantly, as did Silversteasm’s and Ocellus’. Gallus closed his beak with a more uneasy look, and took a breath before speaking timidly, “Ummm… G… Golly Gee?”
“Ooh, or ‘Golly Gee Willackers!’ Hehehehe~” Silverstream excitedly said that with a smile which her friends immediately matched. Yona rewarded him with another soda, which he took without much question. Just as he was taking a big swig of the sugary drink, Silverstream made sure to add, “Actually, I think Smolder is doing some shopping in town for clothes. You wanna go join her and see how she’s doing?”
“Uhhh… I gueth tho…” Gallus gave a light shrug and a smile to accompany that answer, but it froze when he saw the stares from all three of his friends. Ocellus, Yona, and Silverstream were all looking at him with expectantly raised brows, as well as warm smiles. The gryphon paused briefly with a couple blinks, before he decided to take Ocellus’ advice.
After taking a breath, Gallus tried to smile more naturally when he opened his beak. “O-Or, uhhh… Golly Gee, that thoundth nithe~”
With a big spittle of saliva coming out with that lisp, Gallus was already looking adequately dorky to the three friends who smiled wide with approving nods. Ocellus even hugged him from the side. “Daaawwww… Come on, let’s see Smolder and see what she thinks!~”
He tensed up quite a bit from the idea of Smolder seeing him like this. But with the strangely genuine approval of his friends, Gallus felt compelled to just shrug and nod with slight hesitancy. “Hmmm… I… I might ath well…”
Twenty Minutes Later…
While Silverstream and Yona were busy enacting their parts of the plan, Smolder was taking inventory at the Ponyville Thrift Shop to make sure they had everything she needed. She was happy to find that the shop had a variety of almost everything she was hoping for, including all the ones from Ocellus’ notes. However, she was more fortunate to have had time to prepare, since she had to fly out to a different shop to acquire the most essential item for Gallus. By the time she returned to the shop and got everything in place, she was pleasantly caught by surprise when Ocellus came in with the gryphon in tow.
“Oh, Smooollllllderrrrrr~” The changeling practically sing-songed their way into the store with a ding of the door’s bell. They sauntered right up to the dragon, while Gallus meekly stepped inside with his head hunched down. He was fortunate that the shop seemed nearly empty, aside from an old pony manning the front counter and half-asleep. Nevertheless, he still felt rightfully nervous when he walked around the rack of coats for Smolder to see for the first time.
“H-Holy! I--” She quickly clasped both claws over her face when she saw Gallus’ glasses and headgear. Her cheeks burned hotly with blush, while Gallus’ blush was from embarrassment as he averted his eyes. That kept him from seeing the dragon’s strong, full-body shiver that made her eyes roll back for a split-second. Any feelings of apprehension about this plan went right out the window, and Smolder felt rightfully invigorated to keep going when she marveled at Ocellus’ work. “W… W-Wow, Gallus! I… I’m impressed, dude~”
She put her claws back down to rest against her hips, and she smiled more naturally through her blush. “Jeeze… this is really happening huh?~”
Gallus narrowed his eyes on her puzzledly, while Ocellus gave a frantic ‘Cut it’ motion across their throat. Smolder quickly blinked and stammered out, “Oh, I mean, uhhh… You… You’re probably looking for clothes to match, huh?”
Gallus looked even more suspicious as he slowly nodded his head. “Uhhhh… Yeah, I… I wath…” Gallus glanced back at Ocellus with a raised brow. “Did… Did you plan thith?”
Ocellus froze up with their face notably paled, clearly looking guilty as sin. Smolder leaned in to interject and say on their behalf, “A-Actually, uhhh… Ocellus came to me while you were being gassed for those braces, and we… We figured some new outfits might be a good gift to detract from them, y’know?”
Gallus took a couple seconds to process that answer, before his expression softened to a more flustered smile. “W-Wha… Oh, come on, guyth…” He hung his head bashfully and looked between her and Ocellus. “You didn’t have to do that for me.”
“I know, but you’re our friend, and friends help out one another.” Smolder rolled her eyes and decided to add more cheekily, “Besides, you could totally use some new threads! I’m thinking maybe… ‘Business-Chic’~”
“So, what do you say, Gallus?~” Ocellus leaned in with a wide smile, perking their brows to emphasize the gryphon’s behavior. The gryphon blushed with a clearly nervous look, but took a breath before hesitantly looking back at Smolder.
“Uhhh… Well, umm…” Gallus exhaled before giving a smile and trying his new practiced vocabulary. “... G-Golly Gee, Thmolder, I-I really apprethiate that~”
Smolder went wide-eyed for a second, but was able to see Ocellus give a motioning nod right behind Gallus’ head. That made the dragon smile with a nod back at them, while saying, “W-Well, you’re welcome, Gallus! Hmmm… You know, you should say like ‘Golly Gee’ more often~”
She then went to grab something from her purse, which was nearby on one of the benches against the wall. Gallus was taken aback by his friend’s compliment, but he couldn’t question it when he looked back and saw Ocellus give a shrug in agreement. He blushed a bit more, just in time for Smolder to come back towards him with a package in her claws. “Hey, Gallus! You okay with wearing pants? Because if so, you might need one of these…”
Gallus was confused when he took the small package, which appeared to be white clothed wrapped in plastic. But as soon as he read the cover, he reeled back with a grimace. “What the?! M-Menth Briefth?”
“What, you wanna just shove your junk into a bunch of pants owned by strangers that likely haven’t been cleaned in years?” Smolder didn’t give any response to the fact that those were Tightie-Whities, and kept a straight face when explaining her logic. “I’m just saying, if you’re gonna wear a shirt, you need pants to hold them in place over your torso. And if you’re gonna wear pants, you’ll need underwear for protection, right?”
Gallus’ beak may have been open, but he couldn’t say a word in protest after that first question was asked. Despite his apprehension, he eventually looked back down at that clean package of underwear with a tight grimace. Since Smolder and Ocellus were nice enough to do this kind of gesture for him, he knew better than to complain about free underwear. So with a low sigh, Gallus accepted the package with a roll of his eyes. “Ughhh… Y… Yeah, I gueth tho…”
“Great! Come on, you can get them on in the dressing room while we get you clothes!” She and Ocellus practically pushed him down the aisle of clothing before he could see anything he would’ve liked for himself. He found himself outside the fitting rooms, and just shrugged when he entered one of the empty stalls himself. While his friends waited outside, he grunted a little when he got the package of underwear opened with his talons. After a minute of fitting, the gryphon looked over at the mirror inside his stall with a blush when he saw the tightie-whities wrapped around his slender backside.
“Jeeth…” Gallus may have admired how snug and supportive the tightie-whities may have been, but he was not a fan of how obvious his crotch-bulge was. For some reason, it made him look more exposed than if he was naked. “... ugh, why couldn’t Thmolder have gotten Bot-fffffers…”
Trying to say that “X” syllable just made him sputter out that last word in a saliva-spraying lisp. He groaned and closed his beak, silently reminding himself not to say “Boxers” outloud again.
With the door closed, he had no idea what Smolder and Ocellus were doing out in the shop. But after a surprisingly quick amount of time, a few articles of clothing were floated over the door by Ocellus’ magic. He took them with a tightened beak, and tilted his head when he saw the colors and materials of the garments. But before he could speak up, he heard Smolder say, “Hey, try those on for us! We wanna see how they look~”
“You… You do?” Gallus wasn’t sure what his friends were thinking, but they sounded too excited for him to ruin their fun. After looking at the items in his claws, he sighed and rolled his eyes. “Uhhh… a-alright…”
It took him a few minutes, but he was surprised to discover that everything picked out for him fitted really nicely against his figure. He wasn’t sure how well Equestrian clothing could fit a gryphon, but he was happy they didn’t look too unfitting. Still though, he couldn’t help feeling weird when he slipped the white, plaid-patterned button-up shirt over his torso. After that, he fitted on a skimpy pair of beige, cargo-shorts made of tough khaki. After wrapping the brown belt through the waistband and tucking in his shirt, he slipped on the second-part of his top: a gaudy brown and green sweater-vest done in a plaid checkerboard pattern.
He was just about to exit the room, but another aua of Ocellus’ magic floated in a few more things. “Ooh, add these too!~”
“What the… Thuthpenderth?!” Gallus held up the elastic straps of an old pair of suspenders, which were bright yellow and clashed horribly with his clothing. However, he trusted his friend enough to fit them on anyway, eventually getting them tightly clasped over both shoulders. He then took the clean pack of tube-socks (another purchase from Smolder alongside the underwear), and fitted them over both of his hind-paws. The last part were the shoes, which made him pause with an especially puzzled look on his face; but alas, he decided to try them on anyway, and shoved both of the dark-brown loafers over his paws.
When everything was said and done, Gallus wasn’t sure if he even wanted to look in the mirror. He was blushing hard with his reflection behind him while he got the shoes fitted on. Before he could turn his head and see for himself, he heard Smolder shout out, “Come on, Gallus! You ready or not?~”
“Ugh! Okay, okay…” Gallus closed his eyes and unlatched the door, opening it before both of his friends. He kept his head hung when he slowly stepped out of the fitting room, now wearing a full outfit which fully encapsulated ‘Nerd’ from head to paws. Both of the friends gasped silently, with Smolder’s face turning an especially deep shade of red from newfound attraction. Meanwhile, Ocellus had a hoof over their mouth while they stared wide-eyed at the gryphon in utter awe…
“... uuuhhhh…” Gallus couldn’t bear to look at their reactions, and stood meagerly with a claw awkwardly rubbing his foreleg. His shirt, sweater-vest, suspenders, and shorts all matched his glasses and headgear absolutely perfectly. And with an added tug of magic from Ocellus’ horn, the gryphon’s tube-socks were rolled up to cover most of his exposed legs. After a few seconds of stunned silence from his friends, Gallus was looking more worried as he lowered his head even more. “Ith… Ith thith too mu--”
Before he could finish his question, his blocky glasses slipped off his beak once again; but this time around, Gallus wasn’t able to catch them in time before gasping.
-CRACK!-
The glasses fell to the hard floor, snapping right in half before Gallus’ eyes. The gryphon stared down at them for only a second, not noticing his vision was still fine when he covered his face with a claw. “Ugh! Dammit!”
“Darnit…” Ocellus said that correction firmly enough for him to hear it clearly, but he wasn’t able to nod before they picked up both halves of the glasses with their magic. Smolder had an elated grin (luckily out of Gallus’ line of sight) when she pulled out some masking tape from her purse. After handing Ocellus the roll, she rushed off and added, “Ooh, I know what else he needs! One sec!~”
As the dragon ran off with a slight giggle, Gallus was still looking ashamed of himself when he glanced back at his friend. Ocellus was quick to “repair” the glasses exactly as they had hoped, and got them floated back towards Gallus’ face before he could see without them. The blocky frames were floated back over his beak, this time with a thick cover of white masking tape holding the two lenses in place. The bandage-like material gripped his beak much easier, helping to hold them in place without as much slippage.
“There you go…” Ocellus breathed out shakily through their overwhelmed smile, and stepped back to see how the taped glasses looked on him. It was astounding how much work had been done to change his appearance so drastically in a single day; but at the same time, Ocellus’ heart was pounding in pure elation at how dorky the gryphon was looking already.
“W-Wow, you… Y-You look really great~”
“Uhhh… I-I do?” Gallus wasn’t sure how to feel, but he could tell from Ocellus’ smile that they weren’t lying in the slightest. When Smolder finally returned, needing a moment to admire Ocellus tape-work on the glasses, she leaned in to add one last thing to Gallus’ collar. He groaned a little while feeling something get clipped on, and he tried to repeat his earlier question. “Tho, uhhh… Thith ithn’t too much, ith it?”
“Hmmm…” Smolder got the yellow clip-on bowtie latched to the top of his shirt, sticking out tight over the sweater-vest. After stepping back to stand alongside Ocellus, the two took a second to stare at Gallus with blushed smiles. Neither of them could say anything too telling, but they were obviously loving his appearance as their eyes moved up and down.
“Dude…” Smolder may have been worried about lying to her friend when these plans initially began, but she felt absolutely no dishonesty when she spoke with a flustered smile. “I… I’m not gonna lie, you look great like that!”
“Yeah!~” Ocellus had to control their breathing while fanning their face with a hoof. “Gallus, I think this kind of style could really work for you…”
“You… You do?” Gallus looked down at himself for a moment. “Hmmm… I don’t know…”
“Just look at yourself in the mirror, dude. Trust me~”
Smolder hoped that her confident tone could help sway him, but she felt a twinge of worry when he turned around to use the mirror inside the fitting room. As soon as he peered inside and saw his reflection, his heart nearly skipped a beat when he froze in shock. The glasses and headgear were upsetting enough to see by themself, but his outfit as a whole made him look like a total dweeb! The sweatervest, and the bowtie, AND the suspenders were all a lot to take in at once. “Gah! W-What the…”
Ocellus stepped in to see his reflection themself, and also to provide a comforting smile for him to see. “Hmmm…” Noting how freaked out Gallus was looking, the changeling decided to help with one last bout of confirmation. “Yeah, that’s totally a look for you~”
“Hmmmm… I dunno…” Gallus tugged on his suspenders with a claw while looking at his reflection in slight disgust. “Uhhh… D-Do I have to wear thith?”
“Why not? Ponies would love this!” Ocellus’ face lit up, and they turned towards Gallus with a smirk. “Hmmm… I’m willing to bet that Sandbar would say you look really cool in that~”
That made Gallus peer back at them with a flat stare. “... You can’t be theriouth.”
“I’ll tell you what…” Ocellus brought Gallus back outside the fitting room where Smolder was waiting. “If you’re willing to let us buy you a few outfits, we’ll have you wear that back to the dorm and see what Sandbar thinks.”
“Ooh, good idea!” Smolder quickly piped up with a smile, “If he says you look like a dork, you can return all of them with the receipt. But if he tells you that you look cool, you gotta keep them~”
Gallus still seemed a bit hesitant, but he thought that wager over briefly enough to ask, “Hmmm… And neither of you will thay anything to him?”
Both of them shook their heads with truthful smiles, and gave the practiced hoof (and claw) motions taught to them by Professor Pinkie Pie.“Cross my heart, hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my eye.”
One Uncomfortable Walk Later…
Gallus wanted to be more grateful for how helpful his friends have been lately. Not only did he get a much-needed eye and beak appointment, but he also got some free lunch and a few new outfits to wear for classes. Unfortunately, despite all the lessons he learned in school about accepting gifts as they were and “Not looking a gift horse in the mouth” (an expression he still didn’t fully grasp context-wise), it was hard to feel too thankful when he stood out like a sore talon in town. Not to mention, he wasn’t able to get out of his new “cool clothes” after Ocellus and Smolder bought everything for him at the thrift shop.
“Jeeth, all of that wath only fifteen bith…” Gallus tried looking at his receipt more than the townsponies he walked past, many of whom stopped to stare at the newly-nerdified gryphon. He grunted to himself and tried to close his beak, but the headgear made that impossible while walking at a slightly brisker pace. His shorts were riding up rather uncomfortably in the back, especially with those tighty-whities that Smolder insisted he kept for himself. And with the fabric of his dress-shirt and sweater-vest rubbing between his wings, he was finding it difficult to keep them from springing outward in stimulation.
By the time he reached the school campus, Gallus ended up rushing into one of the back entrances of his dorm building like he was sneaking in. He tried his best to avoid being seen, and sneakily crept down the hallways when they were emptied. He eventually made it back to his dorm room, with the light peering from beneath the door to indicate his roommate was already inside. Gallus almost reached down to open the knob, but remembered that one incident vividly enough to remember knocking first.
-Knock, Knock, Knock-
“Uhhh, Thandbar?” He grimaced from how hard it was to keep from lisping, and just sighed with a roll of his eyes. “I-Ith me, Galluth…”
“Oh, come on in!”
It didn’t sound like Yona was inside this time, so Gallus felt less worried about just barging in. He took a breath before turning the knob, and kept his eyes closed when he walked inside. He didn’t hear anything at first, which made him tense up by the time he closed the door behind him. It wasn’t until he heard a couple hoofsteps that he realized Sandbar had turned around, and he overheard a slight gasp. “O-Oh! Ummm…”
Sandbar may have already been fully aware of everything going on, but he was still taken aback when he saw how Gallus looked now. Considering how normal he was when he left the dorm room this morning, it was almost like a brand-new gryphon walked in. The first thing that caught his eyes were Gallus’ glasses and braces, which he honestly didn’t think would happen so soon. The outfit was the next part to catch his attention, since it was clear how much effort Smolder and Ocellus took to make it so consistent. Even though he hadn’t been able to meet up with either of them prior to this moment, he could only hope that they were blushing as deeply as he was right then.
“W-Wow…” Sandbar may have considered himself to be straight, but being in a relationship with Yona certainly helped him open his young eyes. And after hearing Ocellus’ passionate case regarding Gallus, as well as participating in the discussion himself, he would’ve been lying to himself if he claimed he wasn’t curious. He wasn’t sure how he’d actually feel about Gallus being nerdified, but the overall sight left him stunned like all the others. He slowly breathed out, and grew a captivated smile after blinking a couple times. “I-I uhhh… I wasn’t expecting… t-this…”
“Y… Y-Yeah…” Gallus couldn’t look at his friend directly, and ignored the stallion’s gobsmacked stare while rubbing the back of his neck. “I, ummm… I need to wear the glatheth and bratheth, tho… tho Othelluth and Thmolder got me theth…” He motioned down to his outfit, not appearing too confident with his shoulders slouched.
“I… I see…” Sandbar looked down at Gallus’ clothing while hiding his blush as discreetly as possible behind his hoof. He had no idea if he or the others could actually convince him to dress like that to classes; however, if Gallus was convinced to show up here like this, there might be a chance. He looked back up at the gryphon’s face, which made him blush a little heavier when he finally opened his muzzle.
“Ummm… Well, I…” While he definitely could’ve benefited from consulting with Smolder or Ocellus, that turned out to be unneeded when he shrugged his shoulders lightheartedly. “... I gotta say, if that’s how they dressed you up, I’d say they definitely know what they’re doing~”
Gallus’ head whipped back to see Sandbar’s smile, nearly knocking off his glasses again; but with that added tape holding together the middle, they remained firmly on his beak without slippage. Gallus actually took a split-second to recognize that benefit, but was still focused on Sandbar when he asked, “R-Really? You… You like how I look?”
Sandbar almost hesitated when he saw how uneasy his friend was looking about all these changes. But at the same time, he was dedicated enough to breathe out and keep a genuine smile. “Yeah, I do,” he said without a shred of dishonesty. “In fact, I would say you look really cool!~”
Gallus blinked and stared down at himself, needing a second to confirm that fact himself. “Hmmm… I… I really look cool, huh…”
“Yeah, totally! Heck, I wish I could get away with dressing that nice~”
Despite his confusion, Gallus accepted that complement well enough to give a begrudging nod. “Hmmm… W-Well, uhhh… I might need thome time to adjuth to theth…”
“Hey, there’s nothing wrong with that. In fact…” Sandbar remembered what he was supposed to do, which made him tap his chin in thought. “Hmmm… You know, maybe it might be good to redirect your studies a little… You know, since your glasses might affect sports credits?”
“Ahh, right…” Gallus nodded with a tired huff, clearly hating how his glasses might inhibit his future plans. “Ugh… Gueth I have to talk with Rainbow Dath about gym clath.”
“Yeah, maybe…” Sandbar’s giddy blush remained while speaking sympathetically. “A-Although, it might also be good to focus on academics instead? I mean, I’m sure Twilight would understand.”
“Yeah, I might end up doing that…” The idea of having to change his school plans due to today’s events was enough to make him shake his head in disbelief. But then again, so was walking around town in such a strange-looking outfit, even with all the positive reception his friends have been giving him. He looked over at the mirror hanging on the closet door, which gave him another full-body view of his nerdy reflection. The sight still made him blush worriedly, but he could also see Sandbar’s smile from right behind him.
“Hmmm…” He glanced back at the pony, which was enough to make Sandbar try and readjust his hind-legs a little. His muzzle tightened a bit as well, but that was easily covered by his persistent blush. Gallus took a moment to think about what to say, and needed to readjust his glasses before opening his beak. “W-Well, uhhh… Do you think I thould go to thcool like thith?”
“Y-Yeah!” blurted Sandbar, perhaps a little too quickly for Gallus’ liking. However, the stallion was adamant while nodding his head. “Dude, trust me, you look great!”
Gallus’ beak tightened for a moment, but he accepted that review with a nod and sighed reluctantly. He tugged at his collar with a talon before saying, “W-Well, ummm… I’m thure glad Thmolder and Othelluth got me tho many outfits…”
“Oh! I almost forgot!” Sandbar rushed back to his desk for a second, and opened one of the drawers to rummage through for something he already owned. Gallus just stood awkwardly while watching the stallion grunting in frustration. “Ugh, c’mon, where is it… I swear I packed it when I move--AHA!”
Sandbar was grinning wide when he pulled out something that Gallus didn’t recognize. It looked to be a small rectangular item made of faux-leather, almost like a wallet with a couple added inches in length. Gallus narrowed his eyes through his blocky frames, and realized that it was more of a pouch or little bag of some kind. Sandbar also grabbed a few pens from his desk before walking back up to the gryphon. He tucked the pouch into the front button of Gallus’ shirt, and then the pens so they stuck out.
“There you go!” Sandbar smiled wide when he stepped back and admired the nerdiest accessory he could’ve given to his roommate. “It’s a pocket protector! You know, so you don’t accidentally stain your awesome shirts~”
“Hmmm… I didn’t know they made thothe…” Gallus took a second to inspect the protector, and actually shrugged with an approving smile. It may have been a weird thing for Sandbar to own, but it certainly seemed to be serving a good purpose. With his pocket adequately protected, he shot his friend a gracious smile. “Huh, thath… thath really nithe of you, Thandbar. Thanth.”
Hearing his lisp coming through that headgeared beak was enough to make Sandbar try his hardest not to shiver. Fortunately, he kept his smile and replied with, “Oh, it’s no problem, dude. That’s what friends are for.”
After that, the pony tried to remain casual when he looked away from Gallus for a second, and sheepishly added, “A-And uhhh… I’d totally be down to help you get ready for classes if you need it.”
“I… I really apprethiate that…” Gallus was worried about whatever maintenance he might need to account for his teeth and eyes, so Sandbar’s offer was something he was hoping to hear. “Tho, uhhh… You wanna go meet up with the otherth? I wath justh bringing the clothe here before heading back out.”
“Oooh, good idea!~” Sandbar quickly grabbed his saddlebags, while Gallus tucked his shopping bag beside his bed. The gryphon contemplated removing his clothing, just so he could wash them himself in the school’s laundry room. However, he hesitated for a moment after removing the clip-on bowtie, and just stared at it briefly. Sandbar stopped what he was doing and looked back at him silently, his eyes notably widened. But with the gryphon unaware of his roommate’s stare, he only waited a few seconds before deciding to put it back on.
“Eh, what the heck…” While this certainly wasn’t his personal style, he couldn’t assume that five different friends of his could ALL be wrong. So after another huff, he clipped the tie back onto his collar. He still felt unbelievably weird in his whole getup, but he was willing to trust Sandbar and the others if they assured him he looked alright. After checking his reflection in the mirror, he turned back to Sandbar and asked, “Uhhh, you ready?”
“Yep!” Sandbar was already waiting by the door, and looking pretty excited after seeing Gallus keep his bowtie. “Ooh, you wanna go to the library?”
“Hmmm… what for?”
“For fun, duh~”
Sandbar didn’t wait for his friend to offer an alternative, and opened the door so he could leave the dorm room first. “Come on! Last one there’s a rotten egg!~”
He then bolted off, leaving Gallus in the dust while giggling to himself down the hallway. The gryphon groaned out flusteredly before rushing out of the room himself, and closing the door behind him. Still in his nerdy attire, Gallus couldn’t wait to process going out in public again; instead, all he could think to do was run off after the stallion. “H-Hey, come on, Thandbar! I… I juth had a dentith appointment!”
Despite how quickly he tried to run after his friend on the way to the library, Gallus ended up stumbling quite a bit and losing track of him. He ended up needing to stop by the time he exited the dormitory building, and winced when he stepped outside in his nerdy outfit. He covered the top of his glasses with a claw so he wouldn’t be blinded, but he needed to narrow his eyes and try to scan around. With the way he looked, several students nearby were already taking notice of his appearance and whispering to one another; meanwhile, the gryphon just huffed in frustration.
“Ugh, darnit…” With Sandbar nowhere in sight, Gallus could only assume he’d lose the race anyway. So instead of overexerting himself and getting his clothes all sweaty, he decided to just walk at a regular pace across the campus courtyard. As he walked, his face deepened with a blush when he saw how many ponies were stopping to look over at him. He tried his best to remain optimistic, hoping that they were just admiring his new style like his friends all had. But alas, that was hard to do when he constantly saw his headgear and glasses frames in his line of vision.
“Nnnghhh…” He eventually stopped and took off his glasses, taking a moment to clean the lenses with the bottom of his sweater-vest. He was just about to put them back on his head, but he paused and blinked a couple times before looking around. Off in the distance, he could see several different ponies fairly well without his glasses on. He looked back down at the frames in his claw, and tilted his head puzzledly. “What the…”
Unbeknownst to Gallus, a petite little fly had been hovering behind Gallus since he and Sandbar left their dorm. It wasn’t until he took off his glasses that the “Fly” disappeared from sight in the form of a tiny green flame. That flame expanded out quite dramatically behind the gryphon, and took the form of Ocellus in less than a second. The changeling landed back on their hooves behind him, and cleared their throat to catch his attention. “Hey, Gallus!”
“GAH!” He yelped out with a startled squawk, nearly dropping his glasses when he turned around. He faced Ocellus with his eyes wide-open, but they quickly narrowed on them with obvious strain. “Oof, what the… Othellus, is that you?”
“Hmph~ Well, of course, silly!” Ocellus smiled as wide and as innocently as could be, happy that they were the only student close enough to Gallus in that moment. They may have reverted back to their normal form, but they knew how to alter their appearance well enough to look absolutely blurry. Gallus blinked a few times in total confoundment, and tilted his head to get a better look at the hazy blob of blue in front of them. Ocellus took that opportunity to motion down to his glasses and ask, “Are those prescriptions working for you?”
“Uhhhhh…” Gallus blushed and looked down at his frames, suddenly feeling self-conscious about his vision. He quickly put the glasses back on, with Ocellus timing it well enough to change their form back to normal with a split-second flash of their flames. As soon as Gallus blinked behind his blocky frames, his perfectly fine eyes saw an equally normal Ocellus smiling back at him. His brows raised in shock, and he breathed out with a scoof. “Jeethe, Othelluth… I really did need thethe glatheth, huh?”
“Yeah, I think so…” Part of Ocellus wanted to feel guilty for shrugging in agreement, but seeing him looking so wonderfully dorky already was enough to make them continue the facade. They even gave a sympathetic look and added, “I didn’t want to say anything earlier, but… we all kinda noticed you were having vision troubles sometimes.”
“R… Really?” Gallus looked down at himself with a skewed beak. He never thought his vision was bad, but he couldn’t exactly claim that now after seeing how awful everything was without glasses. He readjusted the taped-up frames, but kept them on without much hesitancy. “W-Well, uhhh… Thankth for getting me that appointment, I gueth…”
“Oh, it’s no problem at all~” Ocellus wanted to cheerfully remind him of the braces too, but they knew better than to bring that up while he’s still adjusting to things. So instead, they tried to add more positive reinforcement and pointed to his chest. “Ooh, is that a pocket protector? Wow Gallus, that’s really cool!”
“Uhhh… it is?” He looked down at the accessory sticking out of his sweater-vest, and shrugged weakly. “Ehhh… Yeah, Thandbar let me have it.”
“Dude, you have to show it off to the others!” Ocellus was grinning excitedly from that idea, and even moved in closer to perk their brows enticingly. “I bet the girls would love it~”
“Hmph, oh pleathe…” Gallus rolled his eyes behind his thick lenses, not appearing too convinced. “No offenthe, but a pocket protector ithn’t really thomething I would call ‘awethome’ myself.”
“Hmmm…” Ocellus bit their tongue, and managed to give a respectul nod to Gallus’ point. “Well… I would agree with that notion, maybe. Or at least, you should stop saying ‘awesome’ altogether while wearing those braces. Maybe you could say ‘Neato’ instead?”
Gallus hummed in thought, and looked back down at his pocket protector for a second. “Huh… ‘Neato’...”
“Just think of it like this…” Ocellus got Gallus’ attention back towards them, and they motioned down to his outfit with a kind and friendly smile. “You’re already going to have to change your appearance enough to make up for the headgear and glasses, right? So… what’s wrong with trying to change your vernacular as well? If anything, a new vocabulary could help better adjust to everything else.”
Gallus didn’t say anything, but he was able to nod begrudgingly as he rolled his eyes. All of this was still putting the gryphon through a whirlwind of confusion, but he was trying his best to adjust to it all and accept his friends’ help. He took a few seconds to think about Ocellus’ logic, and eventually sighed in realization.
“Hmmm… Well…” As much as he hated to admit it, they were making a pretty darn good case in regards to his predicament. He pointed to his head and said, “I, uhhh… I gueth if I have to deal with thethe, I might ath well work around them.”
“That’s the spirit!~” Ocellus gave their nerdy gryphon a cheerful nudge to his shoulder. They then noticed someone behind Gallus, who made them smile even wider and give a friendly wave. “Hey, Sandbar!”
“Oh, so that’s where you went off to…” Sandbar had returned to find where Gallus had gone, and went up to him and Ocellus with a carefree smile of his own. “You alright, Gallus? I think the girls are all in the library already.”
“Oh, I’m fine,” assured Gallus as he tried to smile back at him. “Yeah, Othelluth and I were juth talking.”
Ocellus nudged Gallus from the side, and leaned in to whisper something into his ear. The gryphon froze and went wide-eyed for a moment with a blush. His eyes between Ocellus and Sandbar, and he grew a more embarrassed look upon seeing the changeling’s insistent nod. But with a pert sigh, the gryphon grew a smile and decided to follow their recommendation.
“H-Hey, uhhh… I wanted to thank you for the pocket protector, Thandbar. Ith uhhh… really neato.”
Sandbar looked surprised for a second, but quickly smiled all giddily and nodded. “O-Oh, it’s no problem, dude. I’m glad you like it~”
“Well, golly gee, look at you~” Ocellus got up close beside the gryphon, beaming with pride at his response. Of course, they also took that moment to use their magic to grip Gallus’ shorts by the waistband, and hike them up a bit higher than before. The gryphon squawked out all wide-eyed as his shorts and underwear were yanked up, obviously riding against his crotch and rump while his waistband was hugging his stomach. Ocellus then readjusted the straps of his suspenders, tightening them so his shorts would remain at that height. “Ahh, there we go! Much better~”
“Y-Yeah, totally!” Sandbar nodded with a huge grin, and tried not to blush from the gryphon’s strained grimace. “I gotta agree, those shorts look way better like that~”
Gallus winced when he tried to stand upright, and felt a tight band of fabric firmly nestling itself between his buttcheeks. He looked down at his tightened straps, and groaned from how stupid he looked with his shorts pulled up so high. But alas, when he saw the approving smiles from both his friends, it was enough to keep him from lowering the shorts himself. “Uhhhh… o-okay then…”
“Ooh! One more thing~” Ocellus lit up their horn, and used their magic to conjure up a small plastic bag that hovered in their aura. It lowered down to their hoof, and they opened it to reveal a recent purchase they made. “I just came from the commissary shop, and they had this hair and feather-gel on discount! One moment…”
Ocellus hovered up a couple feet in the air with their wings buzzing excitedly. They got right behind the gryphon with the bottle in one hoof, and a styling comb in the other. Without asking Gallus’ permission, they uncapped the bottle and poured a large glob of the dark-green gel right on top of his head. They then quickly went to work, using their magic to hold Gallus in place so he wouldn’t squirm. “G-Gah! What the…” He wasn’t able to stop Ocellus as they began combing the unkempt feathers atop his head. “Hey, come on, Othelluth! Ow! OW!”
“Sorry,” said Ocellus sympathetically, and they tried to comb less abrasively to smooth his feathers out. “Just a little more, and I’ll be done. I promise…” They went back to work, sticking out their tongue in concentration and combing through all the gunk soaking into his scalp. Gallus cringed at first, but eventually settled down when he felt the tangles of his feathers being undone. In a matter of minutes, the plume of spiky feathers were thoroughly muted under that thick sheen of gel, and were brushed down to the sides to give the gryphon a dorky comb-over. “Aaaaaaand, there we go!”
Sandbar had to bite his hoof, but he looked just as pleased as Ocellus with the end result. Gallus reopened his eyes, and looked fairly weird about the cold gel drying atop his head. He wasn’t able to see how drastically his feather-style had changed, nor did he notice one single feather near the back sticking back upright. But with his friends both smiling so wide, all he could do was ask in a sheepish tone, “Ummm… Ith… Ith it good?”
“It’s neato!” chirped Ocellus enthusiastically. “Nnnffff… Golly gee willikers is it neato~”
“Mmhmm!” Sandbar nodded with a smile that appeared slightly more innocent than Ocellus’. “Yeah, that’s perfect for you! You should keep that~”
Gallus looked back at Ocellus, but all he could do was sigh and shrug happily enough. “W-Well, ummm… Thankth, Othelluth.”
“No problem~” They then motioned towards a large building in the distance, and led the way with the two boys in tow. “Come on, guys! The library awaits~”
Gallus was the first to follow them, not noticing how much Sandbar was staring at him from behind with a bitten lip. As they walked, Gallus didn’t seem to notice many of the peculiar stares from other students; of course, that was mostly because both his friends were keeping his attention far more than any giggles or whispers in the distance. The gryphon still looked a bit uneasy, but even behind his headgear, a small smile could be seen meekly growing across his beak.
Since Ponyville’s official library was demolished years ago by Lord Tirek, Princess Twilight Sparkle made sure to equip the School of Friendship with one of the best libraries in the nation to compensate. She even made the building open to all citizens of the area -- not just the students -- with multiple floors to store all the knowledge and stories for them to enjoy. Because of the building’s gargantuan size, there were plenty of backrooms for private studying or napping with minimal chance of interruption. In one of those rooms, which had a large table and several chairs circled around it, the girls of the Student Six were all hanging out and talking.
“So, you got him the clothes already?” Silverstream seemed fairly surprised while sipping a mug of cocoa she made out in the lobby. “W-Wow… I’m surprised he didn’t say anything about it.”
“Yeah, Yona was worried about that too.” The yak couldn’t help shrugging her head. “Honestly, Ocellus is doing a great job!”
“They really are~” Smolder leaned back in her chair, and crossed her arms over her chest. She narrowed her eyes on both of them and asked, “So, uhhhh… you’re both still cool with all this, right?”
The two glanced back at her with their brows raised. Yona tilted her head puzzledly, and narrowed her eyes on the dragon. “Hmmm… Well, Yona still on board… Is Smolder?”
“Pbbt! Well, duh~” Smolder rolled her eyes and blushed a little behind her smirk. “Hmph… I’m not gonna lie, I have some big plans for that nerd~”
That was enough to make Yona smile more devilishly and snicker in response. “Heh~ Yeah, Yona and Sandbar have some ideas too…”
The two chuckled at one another, before turning their focus back on Silverstream. The hippogriff seemed to be thinking over her own answer, with their beak clenched and their eyes rolling back in contemplation. After a brief hum, she raised a single talon to catch their attention. “Well… I wanted to ask one thing while it was just us three…”
Yona and Smolder turned their focus towards Silverstream with slight worry. The hippogriff made sure to raise both claws and assure them, “Don’t get me wrong! I really want to keep doing this too! And I know we can’t really go back now with the braces and all. But ummm…”
Silverstream’s pause was brief enough to make the other two wince in concern. Nevertheless, she breathed out slowly before making her statement. “I just… I want to make sure that we don’t hurt him or anything.”
That was enough to make Smolder sigh and smile warmly. “Hey, come on now. We all agreed to have his back no matter what. We’re going to stay as his friends. Not as bullies.”
“I know, I know. I just mean…” Silverstream closed her eyes with another sigh, and looked back at them to make one final clarification. “How about this… If Gallus says anything himself, we have to agree to listen to him, okay? Like, I know what we’re doing is questionable enough, but we have to at least keep ourselves from ignoring any issues he might have about it.”
Her words seemed to leave an impact for Smolder and Yona, who both remained silent while nodding their heads. Yona’s muzzle scrunched in with a more thoughtful look, and she turned to the dragon sympathetically. “Hmmm… Yona might have to agree with Silverstream. Gallus deserves that much.”
Even Smolder shrugged her head, unable to argue with that point for their friend’s sake. “Well… Okay, yeah. I get it…” She glanced over at the open doorway, which was still empty with nopony coming nearby their room. With the group still alone, she was able to add back to the others, “You know what, I’ll make sure to talk with Ocellus about that. They’ve been planning all this out really well, but… Yeah, I should make sure they’re taking Gallus’ feelings under consideration too…”
The three were left sitting a bit awkwardly after that exchange. Even though it was an important detail to talk about, it also reminded them of how morally questionable this all really was. Gallus was a great friend to all of them, but that could’ve easily changed dramatically if he learned about their plans too soon (or period, honestly). After several seconds of uncomfortable silence, Yona was the first to speak up with a more jovial tone of voice.
“... so, ummm… What clothes did Smolder and Ocellus buy for him?”
Smolder was just about to speak up, but her ears twitched enough to make her face light up. She looked back at the doorway with a smirk, and leaned back in her seat with anticipation. “Ooh… I think you’re about to find out yourself~”
She grinned when she overheard the distinct steps of three different pairs of legs, which also got Silverstream and Yona’s attention. When all three of them turned to the doorway, Ocellus was the first to peer in with an eager grin. “Heeeeeyyyyyy girls!~”
They walked into the room first, making sure to keep an insistently chipper look as they perked their brows in emphasis. All three of them nodded their heads, silently showing their understanding. “Sorry for making you all wait. I just had to run some errands…”
They turned their head and watched Sandbar walk into the room next. “Yeah, uhhh… I think everything’s working out really well. Heh heh~” The stallion was trying not to blush while looking back outside the doorway, but quickly settled himself down when he sat down beside his girlfriend; the yak pulled him in tightly against her side with a confident smirk.
Ocellus leaned their head back out of the doorway. “Come on, Gallus! We’re all here~”
As the changeling walked back inside and took a seat, Gallus hesitated with a heavy blush outside the room. He wasn’t sure how to feel, but he closed his eyes and took a deep breath in preparation. Despite how uncomfortable he may have felt, both physically and appearance-wise, he tried his best to take Ocellus’ words to heart. He was already needing to wear these damn braces and glasses for at least a year, so there was no use dying on that hill; and if all these changes were good enough to help improve how he looked, he was willing to at least try and make it work overall.
“Whoo… Okay… O-Okay…” He breathed out one last time, and grew a contentful smile that allowed his braces to be seen. He may have been nervous, but he walked into the doorway before getting any second-thoughts. All five of his friends’ faces lit up, with Yona and Silverstream looking especially shocked by his new clothing. Gallus nearly froze up in a panic, but he was able to see that all his friends looked really happy to see him like this. A couple seconds passed before he widened his smile, not realizing how much it emphasized his nerdiness.
“Uhh, h-hey, guyth!” He tried not to wince when he gave that cheery greeting with a lisp. He tried to stand more upright while motioning down to his outfit. “Tho ummm… What do you all think? Are thethe uhhhh… Aren’t they neato?”
Ocellus nearly buzzed their wings with pure excitement, while the others all smiled and giggled with genuine nods. “Oh, totally, dude!” chirped Smolder enthusiastically. “Wow! Gallus, when did you look so awesome?~”
Gallus’ smile turned a little more forced while blushing deeply, and he ended up shrugging a little. “Uhh, heh heh… I wath… I wath thinking a different word, perhapth…”
A few of the friends were subtly glancing at one another with knowing smirks, but Silverstream decided to raise a claw and speak curiously. “So, Gallus… How do you feel about yourself right now? Like… are you happy with it?”
Her question was asked innocently enough, and didn’t seem to ring any alarms on Gallus’ end. While the gryphon paused and narrowed his eyes in thought, Silverstream was able to notice the sideways stare Ocellus was giving them. But at the same time, she could also see Yona and Smolder shrug their heads slightly, understanding why she felt the need to ask it. Sandbar didn’t say anything, but he definitely took a moment to hear his roommate’s thoughts on that matter.
“Well, ummm…” Gallus scratched the back of his collar for a moment, and eventually gave a shrug while smiling. “I mean, I don’t hate thith… Ith juth a lot to adjutht to, thath all…”
Ocellus smiled more assuredly to that answer, as did everyone else. Even Silverstream seemed more at ease, and sighed with a newly optimistic smile of her own. The changeling decided to speak up on behalf of their friends. “Well, I gotta say, I really like this new you~”
Gallus blushed even more when he saw the other four friends all nodding and giving cheerful “Yeahs” to their remark. He smiled a bit more meekly when he looked down at himself, not feeling as uneasy as he did before. When he looked back at his friends, Smolder looked intrigued enough to ask him a question. “Hmmm… so wait, what were you planning to say earlier?”
Everyone turned to her more quizzically, with Gallus tilting his head to the side. Meanwhile, the dragon smirked and narrowed her eyes on him. “You know, when you said you were thinking of a different word than ‘Awesome’... how would you say you looked?”
That question got everyone to look back at Gallus, once again putting him on the spot. His beak opened a bit to show more of his braces, while he cringed and blushed in realization. He wasn’t sure what specifically to say, but he also knew it was probably good to try and think of his words. So with Ocellus’ advice coming to mind, Gallus shrugged his shoulders and tried to speak around his headgear.
“Ummm… W-Well, I…” The gryphon huffed with a smile and blurted out, “I gueth I’d thay… Golly gee, I feel really darn dapper~”
All five of them laughed and applauded his words, but none of the reactions were out of mockery. They all seemed absolutely elated and proud of his choice of words, especially Ocellus as they beamed in their seat. Yona reached for a bag she was hiding underneath her seat, and pulled out a large bag of lemon drops. She got a large hooffull of the sweets, and placed them on the table in front of him with a smile. “There you go! Gallus earned that~”
“Hey, you didn’t even lisp there!” Sandbar made sure to point that out before adding, “You should keep that in mind, dude~”
“Uhhh, y-yeah. I am…” He chuckled weakly with his smile looking more flustered, and meekly took the candy to stuff into one of his pockets. He carefully sucked on one of the candies in his beak, making sure not to bite down on it and wreck his braces. As he let the candy slowly melt on his tongue, he thought more about what words he could actually say without lisping. “Hmmm…”
He was just about to eat another lemon drop when his head perked up to a familiar raspy voice outside the room. “Hey, Gallus? You in here…”
Gallus turned around to face the doorway, just as Rainbow Dash arrived with a clipboard in her hoof. She was looking through some notes before looking up at him to speak. “There you are! Listen, I was scouting out some talent for the Cross-Country club, and I was… uhhhhhh…”
Her voice trailed off when she veered up from her clipboard, and was face-to-face with the newly-nerdified gryphon. Gallus was blushing hard with a flustered look, but it was far more innocent than the wide-eyed stares of shock his friends all had behind him. They were all staring at Rainbow Dash like a group of kids caught throwing a rager in her house, and none of them were able to say a word.
“... Ummmm…” Rainbow tightened her lips and narrowed her eyes, blinking repeatedly without speaking outloud. Her eyes trailed up and down Gallus, her expression becoming increasingly baffled the more she saw how he looked. The gryphon averted his eyes with a blush, but tried not to lower his head in embarrassment. It took the pegasus a moment to think of something to say, but her muzzle eventually opened up with caution. “Uhhh… Okay, so… where do I start?”
“Uhhh…” Before Gallus could explain himself, Ocellus used their magic to float out two manilla folders they were holding onto. They were placed on the table in front of Rainbow and Gallus, with labels notifying them to be his dentist and optometrist appointments. The gryphon was surprised that his friend had them, but he nodded graciously and took them with a smile. “Oh, thank you! Yeah, uhhh… I went to get my eyeth and teeth looked at…”
Rainbow looked even more puzzled, and took the folders from Gallus’ claw with obvious suspicion. She opened up both of them and scrolled through the paperwork, making sure not to read any of the private information outloud. Her eyes darted across the pages for a couple minutes, and were enough to make her shrug her head and accept them as valid. Her muzzle was slightly pouted with sympathy when she looked back at him. “Ooof… Yeesh, you got glasses and braces on the same day?”
Gallus looked away from her silently, and only gave a meager nod as a response.
“Hey, it’s alright, dude. Trust me, those things are usually temporary anyway…” Rainbow gave him a supportive pat on the back, but her smile skewed when she felt the clothing he was wearing. She looked back down at his outfit, and her puzzled expression intensified even more when she tilted her head. While the glasses and headgear may have been unavoidable, his choice of attire was enough to make her pause her sympathies. In fact, his appearance was enough to make her glance back at his friends with a raised brow. “Hmmmm…”
All of Gallus’ friends looked worried, but Rainbow had no idea if their faces were frozen in surprise or guilt. She didn’t say anything either way, and instead turned back to Gallus and motioned down to his clothes. “So, uhhhh… New clothes, huh?”
Gallus nodded with a light shrug, not feeling as flustered about his outfit after his friends’ shared praise. “Yeah, uhhh… After I got my bratheth, Othelluth and Thmolder got me thom clothe to help dithtract from it…”
She opened her muzzle briefly, but eventually closed it with a begrudging shrug. “Ehh… I mean, it kinda does…” Rainbow looked like she wanted to ask him more details, like whether or not this was some elaborate costume; but after the few months she spent teaching part-time at the school, she knew better than to speak so bluntly around impressionable teens. So instead, she turned back towards Ocellus and Smolder more quizzically. “Huh… Okay then…”
Smolder and Ocellus were struggling not to blush while giving their teacher a pair of forced smiles. “Uhhh, y-yeah!” chirped Ocellus before pointing back at the nerd they created. “I mean, we couldn’t just have him in the glasses and braces. He’d stick out like a sore talon.”
That just made Rainbow Dash even more confused. She almost blurted out how he already was, but once again, she smartly bit her tongue instead. The pegasus almost looked sympathetic about Gallus’ new look, undoubtedly imagining how he’d be treated outside his friend-group while dressed like that. But when she looked back at him, he seemed fairly unbothered looking like a total dweeb.
“Ummm… A-Actually, thinth you’re here,” began Gallus, catching her focus while shuffling a little in hesitancy. “I, uhhh… I might need to withdraw mythelf from Phythical Ed becauth of thethe…” He held up his paperwork for the glasses and braces, which just made Rainbow groan silently with her eyes closed.
“Ughhh… Okay, yeah…” Despite how she may have felt about the clothing, she couldn’t exactly ignore the gryphon’s medical notes the same way. She took the papers with a sigh. “Okay, sure… I’ll make sure Starlight processes these for your files. And I’m sure Sunburst can help change your schedule before Monday…”
Rainbow Dash tried not to look upset about Gallus’ withdrawal from phys ed, especially when he was one of the best non-pony athletes on campus. But alas, she took his forms in one hoof while patting his shoulder with the other. “Hey, I’m really sorry about this, Gallus.”
“H-Hey, ith not your fault,” he said reassuredly, although he tried not to appear too saddened when he huffed and shook his head. “Ughhh… Yeah, I’m not too thrilled about it either, but at leatht my teeth are getting fithd…”
Gallus’ friends were all sharing looks with one another, with Ocellus nodding with a pout to indicate agreement. Even though the glasses were fake, they were honestly really glad to get Gallus’ teeth looked at by a professional. If his teeth were to be perfectly fine, Ocellus would’ve considered an alternative to braces; but since they were in bad enough shape to warrant headgear, it made the rest of their plans feel somewhat justified.
“Well, ummm… I guess I’ll scan these back in the office. I’ll send them back to your dorm tonight, alright?” After seeing Gallus’ nod, Rainbow Dash was about to turn around and make her leave. But before exiting the room, she gave a firmer look towards Gallus and motioned to his overall appearance. “And, uhhh… Is this going to be a new thing for you?”
She tried to ask that question with more curiosity in her voice than judgment or malice. Luckily, the gryphon just took a second to glance down at himself, and nodded with an indifferent shrug.
“Well, uhhh… Yeah, probably.” He then looked back up at her with narrowed eyes behind his thick frames. “Wait, ith thomething wrong?”
“Uhh, no! No, no, no…” She quickly shook her head in reassurance, although her muzzle grimaced a bit from how quickly she dismissed his question. Rainbow ended up rolling her eyes with a sigh. “It’s nothing. You’re fine. Just…”
Dash took one last moment to stare over at Gallus’ friends, who were clearly trying to appear casual with books in their hooves or claws. She silently stared them down for a second or two, but reluctantly turned her sights back to the door. “... Yeah, it’s nothing. I’ll let you get back to… whatever this is. Seeya!”
Rainbow finally left with Gallus’ paperwork, and waited until she was out of sight to shake her head all wide-eyed in a stupor. “Whoof… What the hay is that about?”
Ocellus used their magic to close the door before Gallus could overhear that remark from the teacher. They then smiled more cheerfully and pulled out a seat right beside them. “Hey Gallus, wanna help me study for that History exam coming up?~”
“Hithtory E-thhham?” He cringed from how badly that word contracted with his lisp, but soldiered through to ask them, “But, ithn’t that tetht in a couple weekth?”
“Well, it wouldn’t hurt to start early~” Ocellus perked their brows with a more convincing smile, right as Yona unpacked some more junk food from her bag. Gallus ended up shrugging his shoulders, and went over to sit beside the changeling.
“Ehhh, I gueth you have a poiiiiIIIAAAHHHH!!!” Just as Gallus was lowering himself down in the chair, he didn’t take note of his clothing when some of the fabric rubbed up against the back of the seat. As soon as he bent his knees to squat down, he belted out a sudden squawk when the back of his underwear caught on the back corner of the chair. Gravity had already taken over, so he basically set himself up for failure when he stumbled and fell rump-first in the seat. “MMMMPHHHH!!!”
The others all gasped with their mouths covered in shock. Meanwhile, Gallus was groaning hard and clenching his eyes in pain as he hung a couple inches above the chair. His tighty-whities were completely exposed and stretched out from the back of his shorts, with the elastic band tightly gripping the back of the wooden frame. He was frozen in pained shock for a moment, which meant that all of his friends could see his devastating wedgie from all around.
“Gaaaahhhh!! G-Guyth, come on!” With his underwear relentlessly tugging back on his balls and riding up his crack, the gryphon could barely get a word out while struggling to regain his footing. “Aaaahhh! H-HELP ME!”
“O-Okay, okay!~” Ocellus was shivering with a bitten lip, and tried to use their magic to get a grip on his waistband. Unfortunately, all they did was yank back even more by accident. He let out another squawk while blushing deeply, but the changeling was able to unhook his tighty-whities off the chair. Their eyes peered down to the gryphon’s crotch for a split-second, where they noticed a distinct bulge protruding through the fabric, and they chittered intensely enough to make their magic sputter and let go of his underwear. They reeled back from Gallus long enough to reposition their hooves, and sat with their front discreetly covered while Gallus fell back in the chair.
“Gaaaaahhhhh… H-Holy…” Gallus grunted badly and tried to settle in his seat. However, he had to lean forward and try to stuff the outstretched underwear back inside of his pants. As he grimaced with his eyes clenched shut, his friends were all looking at each other wide-eyed. Their shared silence was only for a few seconds at most, but all five of them were blushing deeply with newfound revelation. By the time Gallus sighed and got his clothing back in check, he didn’t notice how quickly they all tried to recompose themselves before he sat back upright. “Yeesh… Maybe I thouldn’t wear that underwear anymo--”
“NO!!” Smolder quickly clasped both claws over her mouth, but she heard her voice just as clearly as the others. Before Gallus looked at her in confoundment, she flusteredly tried to add, “I-I mean, uhhhh… You… You don’t wanna leave skidmarks in your new pants, do ya?”
Gallus thought that over for a moment before closing his beak. He didn’t say anything outright, but his shrug indicated he noted her point. Ocellus took that opportunity to hum in thought and catch his attention. “Hmmmm… maybe you should try different pairs of underwear to find yourself something more… Fitting~”
Gallus heard the split-second buzzing Ocellus’ wings after that last emphasized word. He turned towards them and asked, “Uhhh… like what?”
Ocellus and Smolder looked at each other with matching smirks that were subtle enough for Gallus not to notice. The dragon caught his attention by speaking in a confident tone. “I might not be too sure, buuuuut… I wouldn’t mind helping you test some out sometime~”
Gallus shot her a thankful smile, while she struggled not to grin too devilishly on the outside. Of course, inside of Smolder’s perverted mind, she already knew exactly what to try with the nerdy gryphon later on…
Gallus wasn’t sure how long he had spent in the library studying alongside his friends, but enough time had passed for the sun to be close to setting by the time they all left. Surprisingly enough, the gryphon didn’t feel too hungry after spending hours going over most of his classes; unlike his friends, who were all discussing dinner plans with one another, the gryphon was the only one to have eaten a majority of the snacks Yona provided. He was even groaning a little when he stepped back outside, and rubbed the outside of his sweater-vest with the stomach slightly bulging.
“Uggghhh… I think I had too muth…” He winced and paused his steps with a claw over his stomach. Ocellus came up to him with a water bottle, as well as a tearable packet of antacids. He struggled a little with the packet, and squinted through his blocky glasses while getting his claws pinching it right. He eventually got it open, and he managed to handle the tablets and the water bottle more effectively around his headgear. “Mmmphhh… T-Thankth, Othelluth.”
“No problem at all~” The changeling sighed contentedly, and rolled their eyes before asking, “So… is your underwear still uncomfortable?”
“Nnnghh!” Gallus jolted up and looked around worriedly, blushing hard from such a statement being said out loud. Fortunately, he and the others were fairly isolated with most of the equine students elsewhere. Nevertheless, he still groaned and used his claw to slick back his feathers. “Jeethe, Othelluth. I juth left the library! Bethideth, I’m thill getting uthed to all of thith.” He used a claw to motion down to his whole getup, as if that wasn’t obvious already.
“Well, I just wanted to make sure. I mean…” Ocellus couldn’t help glancing back at the gryphon’s hiked-up shorts, and struggled to contain themselves when they saw the slightest glimpse of his underwear still sticking out from the back. “Nnnfff… T-The waistband didn’t, like… get overstretched or anything, did it?~”
Gallus looked back at them baffledly, his eyes notably narrowed behind his lens. Ocellus was trying not to blush, but their tightening lips indicated that would be a losing battle very quickly. Smolder was quick to intervene by coming in from Gallus’ other side. “Hmmm… honestly, it’d be impressive if the waistband still held up. I mean, it took your whole weight back there~”
“Yeah, don’t remind me…” Gallus winced through his braces, and reached back to rub his ass with a claw. “Goth… I thwear, I didn’t effpect to give mythelth a wedgie…”
“Hmmmm…” Smolder narrowed her eyes on the gryphon, while a sly grin appeared as subtly as could be across her face. She only needed to shoot a split-second glance back at her other friends, before deciding to clear her throat. “A’hem, well… If I recall correctly, I offered to help you out if you needed to find something different~”
Gallus opened his beak to retort, but stopped himself when he recalled what she said earlier. Even though he just wanted to head home and rest his stomach, he took a second to look down at his dorky clothes. “Uhhh… you mean with my underwear?”
“Well, duh!” Smolder rolled her eyes and gave him a warning nudge to the shoulder. “C’mon, don’t be second-guessing yourself there~”
He sighed when he looked back up and Smolder and saw her genuine smile. Instead of dwelling over how weird this all felt, he just blushed and smiled appreciatively. “Uhhh… thankth, Thmolder.”
“Come on, I know someplace we can visit. We can meet up with the others after they eat something.” After seeing Ocellus’ approving nod, Smolder quickly escorted Gallus away from their friends so she could get some alone-time with the nerd. He was blushing the slightest bit as he walked alongside her, only getting a moment to wave his friends goodbye. As he followed the dragon across the campus courtyard, he couldn’t help but feel the countless eyes from all around as ponies stopped briefly enough to note his geeky appearance. His head struggled not to lower in embarrassment, but he tried to keep a positive demeanor to match his friend’s.
“Th-Tho, ummm… where are we going, Thmolder?”
“Welllll…” Smolder rolled her eyes in contemplation, seemingly unsure herself. But with a more sultry smile appearing for a moment, she decided to press her luck and turn back towards him. “I’m curious, Gallus. Where did you put the rest of that packet of underwear I bought you?”
“Uhhh, ith back in my dorm room. Why?”
“Could you bring me up there then?” She raised her brows and gave an innocent-looking shrug. “I, uhhhh… I was wanting to try something, and I’d… rather we be alone for it to work. Is that alright?”
Smolder’s scales may have been fairly dark, but the slightest hint of a blush could be seen appearing through her draconic orange. Gallus appeared rather nervous himself, and tugged on the collar of his shirt so he could breathe better. “W-Well ummm… w-what were you wanting to--”
“Dude, come on. Please?” Smolder interrupted him quickly enough to bat her eyes more suggestively. She even looked him up and down before blushing a bit deeper.
Gallus’ beak tightened around his headgear, but his eyes eventually closed when he let out a defeated sigh. “Ughhhh… Oh, alright… Golly gee.”
Smolder tried not to beam excitedly from him saying that on his own accord. But after a quick shiver, she motioned back towards the dormitory buildings nearby. “Well, come on then! I promise I’ll make it worth your while…”
Ten Minutes Later
Since Gallus and Smolder could fly, they spent more time navigating up the stairwells than they did soaring across campus. Smolder let Gallus lead the way down the dorms, and kept a straight face around any ponies who trotted past them. Nearly every single student stopped and stared at Gallus as he walked past, almost like they were expecting it all to be some weird ruse. But much to Smolder’s surprise, and most likely Ocellus’ unmitigated glee, not a single pony tried to stop or question Gallus about how he looked. Despite the obvious shock and confusion, it seemed that everypony could adjust to this with time if Gallus kept this up.
“Aww, jeethe…” Gallus fumbled with his keys when he fished them out of his pocket. Smolder took a mental note of that, and pondered how to counteract that slight issue while keeping him a total dweeb. When he finally entered his dorm room, it was thankfully empty with Sandbar off elsewhere with his girlfriend. Smolder happily followed him into the room, and locked the door behind her so they could be alone.
“Uhhhh… here they are, I gueth…” Gallus reached into the shopping bag he left beside his bed, and pulled out the partially-torn plastic package of tighty-whities. Smolder reached in and pulled out a single pair, gripping the waistband tightly with both claws. She groaned through her fangs, and gave several hard yanks to test the elasticity.
“Nnnnghh!! NNNFFFF! Whooo…” After several frantic pulls to the waistband, Smolder nodded with an impressed pout while staring at the un-rippled material in her claws. “Huh… I gotta say, these seem pretty darn durable~”
“Uhhh… Yeah, I thuppothe tho…” Gallus looked back at the back of his pants, and winced a little when he saw how tightly the suspenders were holding his shorts up. “I thwear, it feelth a little like bondage or thomething.”
Smolder raised a brow, and decided to ask in a cheeky tone, “In a good way or a bad way?”
“Oh, har har har.” Gallus gave a big eye-roll behind his glasses. “Nithe one, Thmolder.”
“Now wait, come on now…” Smolder stood before him with a more focused stare. She hummed to herself while tapping her chin, and her eyes eventually widened in realization. “Huh… Actually, it kinda is…”
Gallus skewed his head, staring at her rather puzzledly. “Uhhh… what ith?”
“I mean… the various straps and tight clothing… the elements of leather and metal in your appearance…” Smolder’s grin became a bit wider, and she nodded her head in self-confirmation. “Honestly, yeah… It sorta is like bondage, Gallus~”
His eyes widened, and his brows raised above his frames when he saw how she was staring him up and down. He didn’t want to assume she was into him, but… dammit, she definitely seemed interested in something.
“... ummm… Thmolder?” He began to blush a lot more, and one of his claws reached down to tug at one of his suspenders. “Ith… Ith thith what you mean?”
“Hmph~” She just rolled her eyes with a faux-innocent smirk, and retorted with, “Well, think about it… Chest harnesses are popular in BDSM, and those suspenders are basically a simpler version of that. Elastic straps could easily hold anyone in place if used correctly, and you got two big pieces over your shoulders to use whenever. And if you’re able to wear them out in public without anypony questioning it, I mean… It’s kind of a sexual power-move if you ask me~”
Smolder felt legitimately proud of herself for that little statement, especially since she pulled it out of her head like it was nothing. Unfortunately, her justification was met with a flat stare from Gallus.
“... Thmolder, are you thmoking with Thandbar again?”
“No! Well, I mean… okay, yeah. But that’s not related to this…” Smolder pointed down to Gallus’ outfit and tried to explain herself better. “All I’m saying is that you can do a lot with those clothes. Both for yourself or for others~”
Gallus may have been able to partially understand that perspective, but he still seemed a bit suspicious of her reasoning. He looked over at his reflection in the mirror, and took note of his suspenders with a skewed beak. There were definitely a lot of words he could use to describe his appearance, but “Sexy” wouldn’t have been on that list. However, when he noticed Smolder in the reflection, he was surprised to see her smirking and staring at his ass in contemplation.
“Huh?” He turned his head to glance back at his rump, his beak skewed puzzledly.
She tried too late to pull her head back up, and ended up blushing with her lips pursed shut. But instead of fumbling with some half-assed excuse or cover that he could see right through, she took that moment to roll her eyes with a contemplative pout. “Hmmm… say, Gallus… If I told you something in private, like… Something meant only between us, you would honor that, right?”
“Hmm? Oh, of courth!” Gallus was quick to nod his head without hesitation. “Yeah, totally. I promith, Thmolder. I won't thay anything.”
“Okay, thank you…” After taking a quick breath, she turned back to face him with a look of intrigue behind her blush. After staring Gallus up and down one last time, she grew a more bashful smile. “Well, uhhh… okay, don't take this the wrong way, but I… I was honestly really impressed how you handled yourself back there in the library.”
Gallus took a second to process that before blinking befuddledly. “Uhhh… what do you mean thethiffficly?” He groaned in frustration from how badly he listed through that specific word.
“Well, ummm…” Smolder averted her eyes briefly with her muzzle skewed. “How do I say this? When you were, uhhh…When you were caught on that chair by your waistband…”
He closed his eyes and sighed with a grimace. “Ughh, don't remind me of that. That was tho embarathing…”
“Hmph~ You kidding, dude?”
Her confident scoff and dismissive tone were enough to make Gallus turn his head. Smolder had her arms crossed over her chest, and was giving him a prideful smile. “You dealt with that like an absolute champ! Heck, I know a lot of dragons back home who couldn't take a snag like that. Like I said, I'm really impressed~”
Gallus' brows rose above his glasses briefly while standing wide-eyed. After blinking a couple times, his beak was agape before trying to respond. “Uhh… w-wait, really?”
“Psh~ Yeah, totally!” She kept her smile while standing more upright with her claws against her hips. “I wanted to say something earlier, but I figured it would mean more if you heard it from me personally, y'know? Like, it takes a lot to impress a dragon.”
“Yeah, I gueth tho…” Gallus seemed a little unsure when he slowly veered back at his waistband. He hummed with a skew of his beak, and narrowed his eyes when he turned back to her. “Wait, tho… when you thay ‘Imprethed,’ how do you mean that?”
Smolder seemed to be expecting that question when she innocently rolled her eyes. She stepped in a little closer to him while her claws were behind her back. “Well, I, uhh… I'm curious to see if you could handle more than that~”
Gallus immediately backed away with his beak tightened shut. That was enough to make Smolder raise a claw in reassurance, and she stood in place without getting any closer. “And… I'm willing to bet that you would enjoy it if done correctly.”
Gallus pointed at her for a moment, but wasn't able to say anything in response. He closed his beak briefly, before tilting his head and asking, “W… Wait, what do you mean correctly?”
That was enough to make Smolder smirk. “Wellllll… If you were still curious about getting new underwear, I wanted to do a little wager between us first…”
She reached over to hold up the package of Gallus’ tighty-whities, while also raising her other claw to keep him silent. “Now, I got a coupon to that new pizza place in town for free crazy-bread. If you're willing to play along, it'll be yours regardless of what happens next. Sound good?”
Despite not feeling too hungry, Gallus was smart enough to nod with a reluctant pout. “Hmm…oh, alright. That craeffy bread ith awethome. What'th the wager?”
“Well, considering how well you handled that little snag, I was wanting to try something that'll stay between us…” She held out the package of underwear and motioned back to his current outfit. “Okay, so here's what I'm thinking… I wanna see how sturdy this underwear is, and you seem tough enough to handle it. So I'm willing to bet if I gave you three hard yanks on the waistband…”
Her eyes narrowed on him with her smile turning much more devilish. “... you'll end up wanting a fourth~”
Gallus didn't hesitate to scoff hard from such a prediction. “Pbbt! Wait, w-what? You can't be theriouth.”
“If you're able to keep from asking for more than three, I'll buy you some boxers from Barnyard Bargains.” She crossed her arms while keeping her smug grin. “That is… unless you don't think you can handle it~”
Gallus huffed and stared her down with a more incredulous look. “Hmmm… oh, really?”
“Well, I certainly wouldn’t ask any ponies like Sandbar. He’d wimp out before the first pull…” Smolder’s stare on Gallus grew more lustful, and her smirk began to match as she loomed in closer. Gallus tried reeling back, but it was much weaker than before. His cheeks were blushing profusely, and he tried to hide his nervousness by giving an uneasy chuckle.
“Uhhh, heh heh heh…” His eyes darted back and forth while he sheepishly tugged at his collar. “J-Jeethe, Thmolder. I, uhhh… I don’t know what to thay…”
“Hmmm…” She was already beginning to walk around to Gallus’ backside while eyeing his waistband. “Well, you could try updating your vocabulary like Ocellus recommended. I really liked where it was going.”
“Hmmm… W-Well, uhhh…” Gallus wasn’t sure how to feel, and his growing confusion was causing him to push in his knees with an awkward repositioning of his hips. Smolder wasn’t able to see it, but the gryphon was beginning to feel a bit tighter in his shorts than expected; and judging by his blush, it wasn’t because of his underwear or his suspenders. Despite trying to keep himself in front of Smolder, he was only half-heartedly attempting to spin away from her reach. “... I, uhhh… G-Golly, thath a heck of an offer…”
“Hmph~ Jeepers, it really does, huh?” Smolder was slightly impressed with how naturally that flowed off her tongue; of course, if it meant Gallus could adopt it himself, she was more than willing to speak nerdish for his benefit. While keeping her eyes on him, she teasingly held up a claw and wriggled her digits. “Come on, Gallus… Just three pulls, and you’ll get new underwear and crazy bread. That’s not a bad deal~”
Gallus had no idea how to feel about Smolder’s insistence for such a weird wager. But at the same time, the gryphon couldn’t ignore the passionate gleam in her eyes when she spoke so highly of the prospect. He wasn’t sure what Smolder could get from this deal, but he couldn’t help gulping nervously from intimidation. Not to mention, he knew better than to turn down a dragon’s bet when he reluctantly sighed. “Ughhh… Tho… Tho ith jutht three pullth, right?”
“Yep!~” Her face lit up quite excitedly to the point where her fangs were poking through her smile. “Also, if your underwear rips, I’ll pay to replace it myself. Although I have a feeling they might hold up…”
“Hmmm… You think tho?” Gallus nervously glanced back at his waistband one last time, and then closed his eyes with a wince. He turned away from Smolder with his head hung in embarrassment. “Mnnnghhh… W… W-Well, ummm…”
With the last of his composure, Gallus went over to his bed and leaned back against his hind-paws. He stood upright against the foot of his bed, gripping the wooden frame of the board with both claws. With his backside pointed directly towards Smolder in presentation, Gallus refused to turn his head and look back at her. Instead, he grimaced with a deep breath and muttered, “Ugh, fine… I-If you’re really that confident, then… t-then go ahead…”
Smolder grinned wide and got right up behind her nerdy friend. But before she could reach down and start her “bet,” she paused long enough to ask in clarification. “Hmph~ Go ahead and what, Gallus?~”
“Ugh!” Gallus groaned and hung his head in frustration. “Oh, for Pete’th thake, Thmolder! G… G-Go ahead and… a-and try to… trytowedgieme…”
“Heh~ With pleasure…” It took everything in Smolder not to giggle pervertedly to hearing that phrase out-loud. But much to her credit, the dragoness kept her cool long enough to reach down behind Gallus’ shorts. She got a tight grip on the waistband of his tighty-whities, and took advantage of Gallus averting his sights from her to lick her lips in preparation. Her eyes peered back at his front before asking, “Hey, Gallus. What other new words have you learned today?”
“W-What? Uhhh…” Gallus felt a bit tense with her claw gripping his underwear, but he relaxed the tiniest bit when he rolled his eyes and thought it over. “Hmm… W-Well, jeeperth, I can’t really thaaaAAAAIIIEEEEEEEEEE!!!”
Smolder had to yank hard on the waistband as soon as she heard him say ‘Jeepers,’ and hoped that his sudden squawk could cover her stifled moan. She bit down on her bottom lip while pulling up on the elastic band, stretching it several inches out from Gallus’ shorts. The gryphon clenched his eyes shut, while his beak hung wide-open with all his braces exposed. The dragon managed to pull out a decent amount of the tighty-whities, causing the fabric to tense up with several tight creases that were undoubtedly riding up Gallus’ crack. His knees bent inward while he groaned out harshly, eventually breathing out in a hoarse moan that made her relent her grip.
“GAH!! Mnnnnghhh… G-Golly…” Gallus was hanging over the footboard of his bead with his ass sticking up, a large portion of his underwear still sticking out. Smolder had to close her eyes and take a couple breaths, but she still felt remarkably turned-on from that first pull. The nerdified gryphon grunted as he took a moment to awkwardly tuck his underwear back into his shorts. He also needed to readjust his legs to try and redirect blood-flow from certain places. “Mmmfff…”
Smolder tilted her head while trying to sneak a peek at his front. “Hmph~ That too much for you, tough guy?~”
“Nnnnfff… N-No…” He tried to say that defiantly, but it was hard to appear too confident while dressed like a total dweeb. Regardless, he tried to keep his stance against the bed when he got back into position. “Nnnnghhhh… Uhhh… Y-You good back there?”
“Yeah I am~” Smolder got back behind him, and breathed out with an antsy shiver she hoped he didn’t overhear. After swallowing some excess saliva in her mouth, she reached back in and gripped his waistband with a grin. “Alright, buddy! Whad’ya say for round two?~”
“Uhhhh…” He was blushing hard while looking down at his bed with a tense expression. He ended up shutting his eyes before muttering under his breath. “I, uhhh… Golly gee willickerth?”
That was as good as any trigger word to make Smolder pull tremendously hard. “NNNGHHH!!!”
“BRAAAAWWWWKKKK!!!~” That second time, Smolder’s wedgie proved to be much more intense than the first. Not only did she manage to yank out several more inches of his underwear than before, but it rode up his ass tightly enough to make him belt out a primal squawk from the back of his throat. His feathers all ruffled out from his sudden bout of stimulation, not realizing that his crotch was showing a prominent bulge through the tightened fabric. Smolder only pulled for a few seconds at most, but she still made him gasp in relief by the time she let go once more.
“Gaaahhhh… H-Holy…” That time around, Gallus had his face scrunched tightly while silently stuffing his underwear back in his shorts. The elastic was still thankfully tight around his waist, and he didn’t feel any rips or holes in the fabric either. Nevertheless, he was mostly trying not to think about the erection that was developing in his shorts. He had no idea how to process that reaction, but he knew it’d be devastating if Smolder saw that right now; either she’d freak out and call him a pervert, or she’d see that as proof of her twisted little claim. Neither option seemed appropriate for the nerdy gryphon, so he was quick to pull himself back upright with a frustrated groan. “Mnnnghhh… G-Goth, you really don’t hold back, do you?”
“Hmph~ Well, I suppose not…” Smolder paused while admiring her claw with her digits moving independently. While keeping her smirk, she decided to ask him as a joke, “Why, you want me to hold back for the last one, Gallus?~”
Gallus opened his beak when he looked back at her. However, after a couple seconds of silence, his blush deepened the tiniest bit before looking away from her again. Her brows flagged up rather quickly in surprise, but she didn’t say anything before he gave a sheepish response. “Uhhh… Juth, uhhh… well, don’t try to hurt me or anything…”
Smolder sighed with a more relaxed smile. “Hey, come on, dude. It’s all in good fun~”
Gallus was too overwhelmed in a mixture of physical and titillated tension to really think of what she just said. Instead, he took her calming voice as enough confirmation that she understood his worries. His legs readjusted once more, but there was nothing to hide the thick tent of his erection protruding from his shorts. But with that thankfully pointed away from Smolder’s line of sight, he just wanted to get this over with when he got back in position. “Mnnnghhh… W-Well, ummm… g-go ahead and do it!”
“Gladly~” Smolder didn’t need to ask twice, and she gripped his waistband to give one final tug with all her might. Since he didn’t explicitly tell her to hold back, she took that as a straight-up refusal on the gryphon’s end. As soon as her clenched fist pulled out from his shorts with a tight wedgie, Gallus’ eyes widened to nearly exceed his glasses for a split-second.
“BRRRRAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWKKKK!!!~”
“Hnnnggg!!~” Smolder groaned rather heatedly while wedgieing the nerd, biting her lip and struggling not to get too excited herself. Meanwhile, Gallus had to lurch down his head with a deep and lingering groan while the dragon continued tugging at his underwear. The fabric and elastic proved to be remarkably strong, able to lift Gallus’ hind-paws off the floor from how hard she was yanking. And with his erection helplessly bunched up against the front of his undies, his strained groan began to sound a bit suspect halfway through.
“Aaaaaaiiieeeeee!!! Mnnnnghhhh… OooooOOOOoohhhh~”
Smolder’s final wedgie lasted a good five seconds at the least, and left Gallus quite winded by the time he was lowered back to the ground. He fell over the foot of his bed with his underwear still sticking out, and his bulge twitching hard through the crotch of his shorts. He couldn’t clench down around the headgear on his beak, but he was still tense all over after that brutal trial from his draconic friend. As he took that moment to come down from that intense bout of stimulation, he wasn’t able to see how badly Smolder needed a quick breather as well.
“Nnnffff~” She fanned her face with a claw, and kept herself standing upright while blushing in elation. Even if this plan turned out to be a bust, getting to wedgie Gallus three times in a row was still a great accomplishment regardless. Luckily for the dragoness, she could keep her voice sounding composed enough while Gallus was preoccupied. “Whoo! I gotta say, that underwear holds up way better than I would’ve guessed.”
“Mnnnggghhh… Y-You’re telling me…” Gallus awkwardly stuffed his underwear back inside his pants, but he tried not to touch his front while his member was still rock-hard. By the time he got himself back upright, his legs were wobbling hard when he pulled away from the bed. He tried his hardest not to stand in an angle where she could easily see his erection, which meant he had to stay hunched and pointed away from her. While he took a couple calming breaths, his beak skewed as he tried to maintain his composure.
“Hmmm…” Smolder waited long enough to cross her arms over her chest patiently. She kept a warm smile, clearly looking truthful about her earlier claims of being impressed by his tenacity. Of course, she made sure to choose her words carefully after clearing her throat. “Ahem… So, uhhh… You feeling alright, dude? I didn’t hurt you, did I?”
“N-No, uhhh… No, you’re fine. Thankth…” Gallus eventually held his head back up, but he was still blushing hard with a strong grimace on his beak. He tried not to turn around and face her directly, but he made sure to show a faint smile to match his answer. However, when he finally turned his head to look back at her, his eyes widened upon seeing her waiting smirk. She didn’t say a word, and just looked him dead in the eyes while her arms remained crossed.
“... So?” One of her brows raised while eyeing him all cockily. “You wanna head out and get some boxers?”
Gallus tried to nod his head, but he could only muster a weak tilt to the side before it froze in place. He tried opening his beak as well, but nothing came out to give an immediate response. One of his claws raised up so he could keep her from interrupting, leaving his arm shaking with a tingle talon extended upward. He looked like he wanted to just agree with Smolder and make their leave together, but for some reason he just… couldn’t…
“... hmmmm…” Slowly, Gallus’ beak closed without having uttered a single word. He looked down at the floor in embarrassment, and reluctantly recoiled his talon into his claw. Smolder tilted her head and raised her other brow.
“Oh?” Her smile became more confident when she asked, “You wanna keep the tighty-whities for a while longer?~”
He quickly looked back at her to refute that claim, but once again found himself unable to speak. He froze for a couple seconds, and blushed when he eventually closed his eyes. With a light shrug of his shoulders, Gallus winced and tried to justify his answer. “W-Well, uhhh… I gueth ith… ith not that bad…”
“Hmph~ I had a feeling they’d grow on you.” Smolder looked really happy to hear that answer, since she wasn’t too keen on buying more clothing that day. However, since she got him to already turn around to wearing the nerdy skivvies, her sights veered downward with a more intrigued smirk. “Hmmmm…”
Gallus’ eyes widened in sudden realization, but all he could do was gulp nervously.
“So, Gallus…” Smolder rolled her eyes in faux-innocence, but her cocky stance made it clear what she was curious about. “... is there anything else on your mind right now?~”
Gallus blushed even heavier. He knew what Smolder was hoping for, but now he felt much more conflicted with the outcome right in front of him. Instead of treating her earlier claim as a little joke, the reality of her words were lingering as hard as the stinging pain up his buttcrack. As much as he hated to admit it, his heart was racing rather hard from the prospect of what was lingering in the back of his mind. He didn’t expect to be put in such a crossroads so soon, but his state of mind was definitely jostled a bit after experiencing three wedgies in a row…
“Uhhhh… W-Well, ummm…” Gallus didn’t realize how dorky he was looking when he lowered his head to avoid staring up at Smolder’s smirk. He awkwardly rubbed one of his arms with a claw, and shuffled in his nerdy little outfit while blushing hard. His erection was still raging hard against his shorts, leaving him too riled-up to think too coherently about what he was tempted to ask. All he could do was glance back up at her with his head tilted. “Hnnnghhh… L… Like what, Thmolder?”
She just shrugged her shoulders with a teasing eye-roll. “Hmph… Well, you should be able to say it yourself, big guy. Although, I should warn you…”
Smolder leaned in with her claws behind her back, and narrowed her eyes on the gryphon with a devilish gleam in her eyes. “If you’re thinking of asking me for something specific… I promise you that I will not hold back~”
Gallus went wide-eyed with a deep breath, and he held it long enough to process her statement with an affirming nod. She huffed with a nod of her own, and pulled back to stand upright before the gryphon. While she took a moment to glance back at the closed door, Gallus clenched his eyes shut and took a deep breath. He still shuddered with his blush burning hotly across his face, but he spoke up before Smolder would pretend to leave the room.
“O-Okay! Uhhh…” He looked down at his claws while fidgeting them in a dire attempt to keep his sights away from her. The nerd looked unbelievably nervous, but didn’t notice how badly Smolder was hiding her excitement. Gallus eventually breathed out with his eyes closed. “Ummm… Do… D-Do you thill want to, uhhh… you know…”
Despite her cocky smirk, she confidently shook her head and answered with, “No, I don’t know, Gallus. How about you ask me with your new vernacular?~”
Gallus kept his eyes closed while sighing in relent. As much as he wanted to call out her teasing, he could feel each throb of his member inside of his still-tented shorts. He felt like a total weirdo for what he was about to say, but he couldn’t think too hard about it while he was so pent-up. Smolder only needed to wait a couple seconds before Gallus took a breath, and settled down enough to nod and look back at her directly.
“Ummm… H-Hey, Thmolder…” He tried to give a friendly smile through his headgear, and breathed out shakily before speaking outloud. “Golly, uhhh… I wath hoping to athk if perhapth you could, uhhh… p-pleathe do it again?”
Smolder chuckled with a randier smirk, but all she did was raise her claw to taunt him some more. “Oh, you can do better than that, tough guy… Please do what again?~”
Gallus groaned and hung his head, but only paused long enough to take action and turn himself around. Not only did he turn to point his backside at her, but he even bent himself over while wincing in embarrassment. “Nnnnffff!! P… P-Pleathe, Thmolder! Pleathe give me another wedgie!~”
That time, Smolder couldn’t hold back her satisfied chuckle. She pounced the gryphon without warning, and nearly ripped off his shorts when she pulled back the waistband to grab his undies with both claws. “Heh~ Don’t say I didn’t warn you!”
Smolder made sure to stand opposite of Gallus against one of his sides, just so she had the proper leverage to pull back hard on his tighty-whities with the least resistance. She groaned through her teeth and strained the muscles in her arms, managing to yank back the white fabric far past her previous three attempts. The back of Gallus’ waistband stretched out all the way up the back of his torso, until it was touching the back of his collar.
“BRAWWWKKK!!! BRAAAAAWWWWKKK!!!” His eyes were bulging out around his glasses, and his hungry squawks came out much more intensely in accompaniment with Smolder’s pulling. She wasn’t lying when she said she wasn’t going to hold back; even after that first hefty pull, she wanted to keep going and see just how much the gryphon could take. His ass was searing with white-hot pain, while his knotted cock was tensed up hard against the remaining fabric bunched around his crotch. His knees were buckling while bent in so tightly against one another, and his weight became more unstable with every harsh throb of his erection. His beak hung open while moaning through the pain, clearly proving Smolder’s assumption with every breath. “Aaaaahhhhh!!~ Mnnnnghhhhh… AaaaaAAAHHHHH!!~”
“Yeah, take it!~” Smolder grinned wide and kept going, using the leverage of her bare feet to grip the floor and yank back even more. Despite having already pulled out most of the poor nerd’s undies from his shorts, she was determined to test the elastic with all her might. Gallus clenched his eyes tightly with a grimace, but he refused to pull away or cry out for her to stop. Even when tears began to build up in the corners of his eyes, his breathing remained rapid and focused to overcome the pain.
“Nnnnnghhhh!!”
Smolder shut her eyes as well, and gave one final moan when she gave an especially hard tug of the fabric. “GnnnnnnaaaaaaAAAAHHHH!!~”
With an audible snap of the elastic, Smolder was able to let go with a heavy sigh before reopening her eyes. She gasped with a claw over her mouth, which only partially muffled her moan when she saw the Atomic Wedgie she provided to her friend. Gallus’ underwear was still stretched out far past his shorts, but the fabric remained tense while the waistband was tightly wrapped over his head. The gryphon was still bent over, but his head was helplessly pulled back to leave him stuck in such a humiliating pose. “Mnnnnghhhh!! Aaaaahhh!! AAAAHHHH!! NNNNGHHHHhhhhhh…”
Gallus’ eyes clenched shut, and his sudden yelps were cut short with a strong groan that made him tighten his beak. His entire body locked up, and he shuddered badly enough to almost look like he was undergoing an exorcism. Smolder’s eyes widened in shock, and her pupils shrunk the instant she realized what was happening. Meanwhile, Gallus’ beak hung open when he took deep, shivering breath and thrusted his hips involuntarily.
“Aaaaahhhhhh~” Gallus may have been trapped in a devastating wedgie, but that seemed to be enough stimulation to set him off. Even though he didn’t even touch himself during his friend’s wedgieing, the gryphon managed to cum uncontrollably hard in his pants. Since his underwear was so tightly stretched around his cock, he ended up blasting hard enough through the fabric to soak the inside of his cargo shorts. His sudden ejaculation lasted for less than a minute, but it was long enough to ensure that the crotch of his shorts would be visibly darkened by the hefty load he left with several weak thrusts. “Mnnnnnghhhhh…”
Gallus was left breathing heavily for a moment, still trapped in his wedgie and the aftermath of his premature reaction. Smolder needed a moment to bite down hard on her claw, while her other claw was precariously clutched over her crotch to keep herself from leaking. Even though the whole ‘Nerdifying’ thing was Ocellus’ idea, Smolder couldn’t deny that making the dork shoot his load was one of the hottest things she ever witnessed.
“Whoo! Holy… Nnnnfffff~” Smolder shivered hard before recomposing herself, thankful that she was able to still stand upright after that gratifying sight. She quickly unclasped Gallus’ waistband from his head, eliciting a pained squawk when it snapped back against his backside. Fortunately, Gallus didn’t appear too perturbed while he laid on the ground with his underwear outstretched. Aside from his post-orgasmic blush and shivering limbs, he tried his best to get himself back to a presentable state when he got back up.
“Nnnnghhhh…” Gallus didn’t say anything when he got his underwear back in his pants. However, he groaned when he looked down and saw the sticky aftermath of his shorts. He turned his head back towards Smolder, who was still fanning herself like an Apploosan Belle with the vapors. One of his claws tried to cover his crotch while he winced awkwardly. “Uhhhh… Jeeperth, I wathn’t effpecting that…”
“Y-Yeah, me neither~” Smolder couldn’t help smiling with an invigorated blush, but quickly motioned back towards the door and took a couple steps back. “H-Hey, I’ll wait for you in the hall while you change. Ooh, maybe try the slacks!”
Not wanting to make any small-talk while covered in his secretions, Gallus didn’t object to Smolder making a hasty leave. He was grateful she didn’t seem upset about him cumming in the pants she just bought him, although he dreaded having to wash them later on. As soon as Smolder exited the room, Gallus took his time to get himself changed. Both his shorts and underwear were removed and tossed into the hamper, but he kept the rest of his clothing on when he reached into his shopping bags.
“Ughhhh… I can’t believe I did that…” With the post-orgasmic high already coming down, Gallus tried not to dwell too hard on what he Smolder just did. Unfortunately, by the time he got on a new pair of underwear, he was worrying about what to say to her later on. He was still blushing when he pulled on a pair of tight brown slacks, which had the legs short enough to show off his tube-socks between the cuffs and his loafers. He wasn’t sure if the pants would look that good on him, but he tried his best to trust his friends’ judgment when he got the suspenders snapped in place.
“Hnnnghhhh…” Gallus eventually reopened the door to see Smolder waiting in the hall. She had a kind, expectant smile while looking him up and down, and made sure to give a thumbs-up when she saw his new pants. He sighed and nodded graciously, but waited to close the door behind him before speaking to her. “H-Hey, uhhh… Lithen, about what happened in there, I juth wanna thay--”
Gallus’ statement was cut off by Smolder using a claw to promptly close his beak shut. She smiled at him warmly, and subtly motioned her head to emphasize the public hall they were in. She then leaned in to whisper firmly, “There’s nothing you need to worry about, Gallus. I said that it was private, and that’s how I’d prefer it to stay. Alright?”
Gallus blinked a couple times, but was quick to breathe out and nod his head. “A-Alright…” Still blushing, he couldn’t help looking around to make sure no ponies were nearby to eavesdrop. Since they were still alone, he took that moment to lean in and try asking one final question. “Hey, uhhh… b-before we go, I wath curiouth. Uhhhh…” He appeared rightfully nervous when he made another glance around, before leaning in and asking, “Ith that, uhh… ith that ‘private’ thing a… a one-time thing?”
Smolder grinned wide, but only hummed with a contemplative look on her face. She crossed her arms while rolling her eyes, and took a second to think his question over. “Well… How about this…”
She reached in to readjust the bow-tie on Gallus’ collar, and kept her smirk when she spoke confidently. “If you’re willing to ask me for it. Out loud. Then I’ll do it without hesitation~”
His eyes were widened in surprise, and he needed a second before remembering to breathe. “Uhhh… r-really?”
“Yes, really~” She stood back to admire the nerdy gryphon for a moment longer, and then walked off with a cocky strut. “Although I’ll warn you, I could easily do it in public if you’re not careful…”
With that, Smolder left him to dwell over that very thought while walking away. Gallus was left gobsmacked for a few seconds with his face a deep shade of red. His beak opened for a moment, as if he wanted to say something regarding such an additional measure. But in the end, by the time Smolder was far enough away to leave his line of sight, Gallus just looked down at himself with his beak clenched tight…
… and smiling ever so slightly in guilty pleasure~
It was the middle of the night, with most of the School of Friendship completely still while students slept. Gallus was dozing off surprisingly well in his bed, even with his gaudy headgear causing his breaths to come out in strained wheezes. Fortunately, the gryphon was alone in his dorm at that moment, so he wasn’t disturbing his roommate yet. Instead, Sandbar had snuck out a while ago to meet up with the others at a discrete location.
More specifically, the campus library after-hours.
Even though the building was supposed to be locked, it was easy enough for Ocellus to sneak in by turning into a small insect and crawling under the door. After the changeling got the others inside, the group met up in the same private study room they used earlier. Smolder was smart enough to bring along a thermos full of coffee, while Silverstream brought some snacks. Yona brought her satchel along as well, which was carrying Ocellus’ notes all bundled in a thick binder.
“Oh, thanks!” Ocellus beamed when they received the notes, and quickly opened it up to go over their findings. But before they could begin, they took a breath and looked back at the others with a gracious smile. “Hey, ummm… I know this is still a lot to process, but… I’m really glad that all of you are still going along with this.”
All four of them smiled back at them warmly. “Well, to be fair,” noted Smolder with a raise of her claw, “I think by this point, you got all of us interested~”
Ocellus’ eyes widened a little, and they looked around to see the others all begrudgingly shrugging and looking guilty themselves. Sandbar and Yona may have been holding hooves, but they were still chuckling nervously and glancing at one another. Even Silverstream had to roll her eyes all innocently, while also keeping her beak shut and nodding with the others.
“W… Wait, you mean…” Ocellus blinked a couple times in realization, with their blush deepening greatly. Their friends could only nod before the changeling could clarify what their friends meant. After a couple seconds, Ocellus tried not to gasp when they asked, “... s-seriously?”
Once again, Smolder was the first to speak up with a blunt sigh. “Ugh… Yeah, you… kinda gave me a nerd kink. I’ll admit it.”
“Uhhhh… m-me too…” Sandbar meekly raised a hoof to add to the dragon’s statement. “I, uhhh… I’ve already told Yona, but… she actually agreed with me.”
“Yona sure did!” The yak was grinning confidently as she pulled Sandbar in closer to her side. “Hmph… Yona and Sandbar both think Gallus’ new look is very attractive~”
Sandbar was grateful to have such a supportive girlfriend, but still looked a bit flustered when he nodded with her. “Y-Yeah, he… he’s hot~”
Silverstream and Smolder giggled with newfound blushes, not expecting such a statement from their male friend. Ocellus, on the other hoof, had already sensed enough of the stallion’s orientation to smile back at him with a knowing nod. “Wow, Sandbar… I wouldn’t have thought that would be your Bisexual awakening~”
That comment made the pony roll his eyes with a scoff, while Yona just hugged him tighter. “W-Well, uhhhh… that would actually be Soarin a year or two back, but… Honestly, at the moment I think Gallus is the only guy I’d be interested in…”
While Yona continued to hug and nuzzle Sandbar all sweetly, Ocellus needed a moment to process what they were hearing. They tried not to appear too frazzled when they asked, “Umm… I-Is that really because of the whole… N-Nerd thing?”
Sandbar meekly nodded his head, as did all the others in support. Silverstream was blushing hard while twiddling her claws and averting her eyes from Ocellus. “Heh heh heh… I’m not sure if I’d call his new look ‘Hot,’ but… He certainly looks super cute~”
Everyone smiled and nodded to that point, Ocellus included. After breathing out with a newly invigorated smile, Ocellus sighed more confidently. “Well, alright then! Heh heh… S-So, ummm…”
The Changeling scratched the back of their head after a nervous chitter, blushing a little past their smile. “I’m assuming we’re all still good with continuing? L-Like, umm… Nobody is getting second-thoughts, are they?”
They looked around to see how their friends reacted to that question. Aside from a few slight glances at one another, nobody seemed to show any worrisome expressions in Ocellus’ eyes. After a couple seconds of silence, the four friends all shook their heads with smiles.
“Psh~ No way!” Smolder leaned back in her chair with her claws behind her head, resting her bare feet on the table. “I’m totally down to keep going! I wanna see how far this can go.”
“Mmmhmm…” Sandbar nodded alongside Yona as they pushed their chairs closer together. “Yeah, we’re honestly a bit curious too. I mean… so far, things have been going surprisingly well”
“Yona really impressed!” She smiled proudly back at Ocellus without a shred of shame on her face. However, her eyes narrowed slightly on the changeling before pointing a stubby hoof in their direction. “Although, Yona was wanting to ask something regarding all this…”
She repositioned herself so she sat more upright in her chair, and she stared more directly at them to ask, “Did Ocellus still want Gallus to remain nerd full-time while wearing braces? Including actual classes with other students?”
Ocellus knew that the yak’s questions had a few layers to it, which made them breathe out slowly and think out their response. Even though the group had done a great job transforming their friend in their free time between classes, it was a whole other thing to keep it going past their weekend. Luckily for the sake of Yona and her friends, Ocellus didn’t show any hesitancy when they gave the group a firm nod and an antsy grin.
“Ohmigosh, are you kidding?~ I… Oh gosh, I really want to keep this going! A-And especially in classes…” They had to pause their flustered admission to fan themself with a hoof; midway through, they remembered their abilities and morphed their forearm into a scaled claw with winged flippers, which seemed to do the trick. As they took a moment to breathe with a frazzled smile, they tried not to feel too embarrassed while the others blushed and listened politely.
“I… I know this is a lot to talk about, but I… I-I’m not wanting to treat this lightly…” After another shaky breath, Ocellus shivered and widened their smile immensely. “O-Okay, so… now that we got him comfortable as a nerd around all of us, what I really want to do is positively reinforce that behavior as much as I can, and… hopefully get him to naturally change into a nerd inside and out~”
Smolder chuckled and raised a brow with intrigue. “Like, so… not just his wardrobe and stuff? You want me to keep getting him to talk like that?~”
“Oh, absolutely! You’re all doing great there! Keep going~” Ocellus breathed out with a contentful smile, and clasped their hooves together in front of their chest. “A-And… More than anything, I… I really want him to feel sexy as a big nerd~”
The four friends all chuckled with sly grins on their faces. “Oh, really now?” Silverstream leaned out of her seat to get in close to Ocellus’ side, causing the changeling to blush and reel their head back. The hippogriff perked their brows a few times and asked, “Would you clarify what you specifically mean by that?~”
“Yona agree with Silverstream’s question! Does Ocellus want just confident nerd, or slutty nerd?~”
Ocellus jerked their head upward, and stared wide-eyed back at the smug-looking yak. “... w-what?”
The yak let go of Sandbar’s hoof, and crossed her forelegs together over her bushy chest. Her smirk was unchanged while staring the changeling down. “Ocellus. Heard. Yona~”
Their cheeks became nearly as red as that apple farmer back in town, and it took everything in Ocellus to keep their nervous gulp silent as they kept their muzzle shut. After re-parting their lips to breathe out shakily, they got enough of their composure back to ask in a whimper, “uhhhhh… a… a-are you saying that… Wait, so Slutty is an option for all of you?~”
Smolder scoffed loudly enough to catch their attention, and confidently stared Ocellus down. “Hmph~ You know for a fact that I gave him a wedgie hard enough to make him cum, remember? If you’re down to go that route, I’m really itching to give him a wedgie kink~”
Silversream, Yona, and Sandbar were all gawking at the dragon after that cocky admission. Unlike Ocellus, who had to fan themself with a bitten lip in recollection, the others weren’t able to witness that depraved test-session from the vantage point of a housefly in the corner of a dorm room. After staring down Smolder with envious blushes, the three looked back at Ocellus and saw them nod enthusiastically.
“Nnnnfffff… If you’re confident you can do that, then… P-Please try! Heck, I’ll help you with that~” They then glanced over at the others and shrugged with a giggle. “Hehehe, ummm… You guys aren’t against that, are you?”
It took a second, but the three all shook their heads with antsy smiles of their own. “Hmph, you kidding? I mean…” Silverstream had to look away from the changeling while shrugging nervously. “We’re already going this far, so… We might as well have fun with it, right?~”
“Yona and Sandbar already agreed that Gallus as a nerd is suitable third for fooling around.” Yona hugged her coltfriend tightly from the side, making Sandbar smile more meekly through his blush. “Also, Sandbar agreed to help with positive reinforcement in any way if Ocellus agreed. Right?~”
The changeling blinked a couple times, with that newfound idea springing in their head as quickly as their blush. They opened their muzzle for a second before their first words could slip out in awe. “... oh… s-so… so you mean…”
They slowly looked around the table, noting how all four of their friends were looking equally as flustered with knowing glances and nods at one another. Before Sandbar could clarify what he and Yona meant themselves, Ocellus took a breath and raised a hoof slowly.
“Ummm… So, let me get this straight… Are all of you saying that if… if it means fulfilling my vision of keeping Gallus as a nerd full-time, you would… you would all be able to provide positive reinforcement…”
Ocellus closed their eyes during that brief pause, and breathed out with a tense hiss before looking back at their friends worriedly. “... umm… i-including, like… sexually?”
Smolder, Silverstream, Yona, and Sandbar all looked at one another for only a second with smiles on their faces, and turned back to nod affirmatively at Ocellus.
“Well, you’re wanting him to be a nerd as a kink, right?” Smolder raised a brow and smirked at the changeling to make them wince and blush deeper. “Hmph… If you plan to fool around with him, it should only be fair that we get a taste too~”
“P-Plus, ummm…” Sandbar was nervously tapping his hooves together while Yona grinned down at him knowingly. “W-We, uhhh… we could reinforce Gallus a lot more if we all, uhhh… y-you know…”
He tried to look up at his girlfriend for support, but she smugly shook her head and kept her muzzle shut. Sandbar breathed out with his eyes closed, but reopened them quickly enough to let them roll as he exhaled hoarsely. “Ugh, oh alright… Ummm…” He still had to hang his head, even going as far as to cover his face with a hoof before muttering out, “Uhhh… W-We could… we could act like his nerd look is… l-literallytoosexytoresistIdunno…”
Ocellus gasped when they caught what the stallion said. “W-Wait! Like… Like we all try soliciting him because of how he looks?~”
Sandbar sighed and reluctantly nodded his head. Yona waited until he did that to give an affirmative grin of her own. “Yona totally down for that! That is… if Ocellus doesn’t object~”
The four were all looking at the changeling, who was covering their muzzle with a hoof and clearly stunned in thought. The surge of rampant, inappropriate ideas would’ve been immense enough to fill multiple notebooks with heavy blocks of fantasy stories never meant to see the light of day. But right now, with all their options out in the open to be done for real, it took Ocellus a few seconds before they put their hooves down on the table. They looked back at their friends with a touched, gracious smile on their face when they nodded in understanding. Of course, that smile became much more confident after they sighed with newfound determination.
“W-Well, ummm… Okay then! If everyone is on-board, then… Unless I say otherwise, I’m insisting that ALL of us continue to keep Gallus a nerd at all times. No exceptions. And, uhhh… P-Please do not hesitate to reinforce that behavior by any means, including… s-sexually~”
There wasn’t a single student in that room who objected to Ocellus’ request. In fact, Sandbar decided to raise a hoof and look over at Smolder. “Hey, uhhhh… C-Can you get a picture of him wedgied next time you do it?~”
Several Hours Later
“Nnnnnghhhh… Jeethe, thith headgear thuthssss…”
It was early enough in the morning for the sun to still be hidden in the horizon, leaving nothing but darkness from the bathroom window. Because of that, Gallus had to only depend on the light-bulb above the sink to see his reflection through the mirror. He was gripping the water-picker tightly in his claw, and trying his hardest to maneuver the nozzle from the perspective of his reflection. Unfortunately, despite how well the device may have been at spraying water like a miniature pressure-washer, the gryphon needed some practice to aim it through the gaps in his braces. “Ugh! C-Come on! Aaaaahhhhhhh…”
Gallus spent nearly twenty minutes cleaning his braces with the spray-nozzle, one of many gripes he had to deal with so early in the morning. He was planning to go out and take a morning jog like usual, but now he was having second-thoughts after his recent appointments. It was hard enough to breathe through his headgear, let alone maneuver around while wearing that and his blocky glasses. But alas, since the morning jog was something of a natural habit for him, he didn’t feel tired enough to just slip back into bed. Instead, he just decided to start his day anyway, and made sure to wear his glasses before checking on his reflection.
“Ugh… Well, here it goeth…” After cleaning his braces, Gallus decided to follow Sandbar’s advice from the other day. He picked up the feather-gel gifted to him, and spent a couple minutes working it into his head. He tried his best to trust the process, and eventually slicked the feathers down from both sides to leave a sharp combover across the top. A single feather sprung out from the back, which Gallus had to give up on smoothing down after a minute of frustrating repetition. He washed the remaining gel off his claws, and unlocked the bathroom door to be met with a surprising reveal. “GAH!! W-What the?!”
“Hmmm?” Sandbar paused and turned his head, taking notice of Gallus’ freshly-primed look at the doorway. The stallion was sitting upright on his bed, while buried hoof-deep into Yona’s bushy chest. The yak was hugging Sandbar back and smiling warmly at the roommate from across the room. “Oh, hey Gallus! Yona came over with some breakfast for us.”
“Hehehehe~ Sorry…” Yona innocently let go of her coltfriend’s back, allowing him to spin around and face Gallus directly alongside her. She motioned over to the large box of doughnuts on Sandbar’s desk, and made sure to say, “Ooh, Yona really likes Gallus’ feathers like that. Very ‘Neat-O’~”
“Uhhhh, t-thankth…” Gallus nodded appreciatively, but hesitated to reach in and grab a doughnut. Despite how delicious the pastries looked, he pointed back at Yona and said, “Thorry, I juth got my bratheth cleaned, and I need a moment to let the tholution thetttle under my gumth.” He snapped his claw with a quick “Oh!”, and left his friends to return to the bathroom and get the box of specialized cleaner for the water-picker. He leaned out of the doorway with the box in his claw and said, “Thee?”
“Oh, Gallus doesn’t need to explain,” assured Yona with a wave of her hoof. “Yona understand. How long should Gallus wait?”
“Uhhhh… about five to ten minuth, at leath…” Gallus sighed and tossed the box back in the bathroom he and Sandbar shared. He groaned when he looked back at the doughnuts, which only had two removed to make the allusion it was for all of them. “Ughhhh… Darnit, thothe do look really good.”
“Oh, Yona and Sandbar already ate, so Gallus can have as many as he wants~” As part of her contribution to the plans, Yona intended for Gallus to try and eat the whole box himself, including the two “missing” doughnuts she had hidden in her purse. She knew it was a tricky task to fulfill, but she was determined to get him to miss his morning jog by any means necessary. “Hmmm… Yona curious what Gallus plans to wear for classes today…”
The gryphon perked his head up with a raised brow, not having thought about that too much himself. He sighed through his headgear before glancing back at his closet door with a wince. “Hmmm… Thould I wear thomething?”
“Well, why not?” Sandbar took the initiative to get off the bed first, and he walked over to the closet to see where Gallus’ shopping bags were. “Hmmm… You want us to help you pick something out?~”
“Uhhh, y-you don’t have to do that.” Gallus tried to intervene and lean his way past Sandbar, but the stallion already got a pair of khaki slacks held up with an excited grin. Gallus groaned when he tried to take the pants from Sandbar’s hoof, realizing too late that it looked like he was accepting that option. Yona tossed over a white button-up shirt with short sleeves, which Sandbar placed on top of Gallus’ extended foreleg. “Hmmmm… R-Really?” he asked with a hint of trepidation in his voice.
“Just try them out! Yona promise to be polite~” Yona remained sitting on Sandbar’s bed, nearly bending the frame with her weight alone. Meanwhile, Sandbar was continuing to look through the closet for the rest of Gallus’ much needed accessories. The gryphon wasn’t sure how to feel about being clothed by two of his friends, especially this early in the morning; however, he remembered enough of Smolder’s points from the other day to understand they’re just looking out for him.
“Hmmm… Tho, thith thirt, huh?” The gryphon took his time getting himself adequately dressed, not noticing the blushed and focused stares that his friends were sneaking at him whenever his back was turned. He still had a lot of fresh underwear, so he got a clean pair of tightie-whities wrapped around his midsection (as well as his tube-socks over his hind-paws) before slipping on the slacks. The trousers proved to be much tighter than expected, practically flaunting the gryphon’s crotch-bulge more than the underwear beneath it. The bottom-cuffs of his pants were rather snug around his shins, since the legs stopped several inches above the ankles to show off his socks.
“Uhhh, thethe panth might be a little tight…” Gallus grunted and pulled the waistband up, grimacing from how high it went up his midsection. His ass and crotch may have been comfortably nestled within the slacks, but the waistband had to be wrapped around the top of his stomach with a belt. He looked back at his friends before he could commit to the look. “Guyth, are you thure thith lookth alright?”
Sandbar and Yona looked back at each other with light smirks, only sharing a single look before nodding their heads. She was staring her stallion down with narrowing eyes, prompting Sandbar to turn away with a flustered blush. After breathing out, the pony shrugged his shoulders and gave Gallus a more affirmative nod. “Yeah, totally, dude! I think the pants look way better like that~”
“Mmhmm~” Yona nodded and redirected her captivated stare towards Gallus. “Honestly, Gallus would look even more attractive with the other stuff on too…”
“Hmph, like what, the thuthpenderth and…” Gallus had his eyes averted from the two when he gave that dismissive scoff. However, it didn’t take him long to look back at them when his words trailed off in surprise. “Uhhh… Wait, uhh… w-what wath that?”
“Yona said…” The yak kept her confident smirk as she stared Gallus down, motioning down to his untucked shirt and hanging belt. “... Gallus would look even more attractive with the rest of the outfit complete~”
Gallus blinked a couple times, and immediately turned to Sandbar for his reaction. But much to his surprise, the stallion just shrugged with a smile and agreed with his girlfriend. “Heh~ I mean, uhhh… you do look pretty handsome already~”
The gryhon’s eyes widened enough to nearly exceed the size of his glasses lens. He wasn’t sure what to expect this early in the morning, but it certainly wasn’t two of his friends smirking at him like a married couple scouting for a third at a bar. His pupils could be seen darting back and forth within his blocky frames, and he started to blush with an uneasy skew of his beak. “Uhhhh… heh heh… Y-You, uhhh… You two worded that pretty uhhh… thuthpithiouthly…”
Despite how badly he lisped through that last word, neither of his friends needed to clarify his worries of suspicion. Instead, Sandbar took a couple steps backward, keeping his sights on Gallus while holding Yona’s hoof. “Well… we’re just speaking our minds, that’s all~”
“That’s right,” added Yona with a squeeze to Sandbar’s hoof. Without blinking her eyes, the yak kept a more obvious stare on Gallus to make him blush even more. “There’s nothing wrong with friends being open with one another…”
Her eyes slowly veered downward, and lingered long enough to make the gryphon point his head down. He gasped and fumbled with his glasses, leaving him unable to immediately cover the notable bulge in his pants. Due to how tight the slacks were, a clear outline of the gryphon’s semi-erect penis could be seen against the top of his inner-thigh. By the time he got a claw held up against his glasses, all that Gallus could do was awkwardly stand on his hind-legs while his other claw covered his crotch. “Nnnnghh!! H-Hey!”
“Hehehehehe~” Yona covered her muzzle with a hoof while snickering. “Golly, Gallus! Yona impressed~”
Sandbar had to look away while fanning his face all bashfully. “Oh, w-wow… N… Not bad, dude…”
Gallus whined a little, grimacing against his headgear and struggling to keep standing upright. His knees bent inward to make his stance more awkward, and he groaned with his eyes closed in embarrassment. Yona quickly let go of Sandbar’s hoof, and nudged him with a grin to make a move. The stallion shuddered with a bitten lip, only needing a second before leaning in and giving Yona a kiss for good luck.
“Muah~ Ooh, lemme help with that…” Sandbar stepped away from the bed, and grabbed hold of the gryphon’s belt to catch his attention. He gasped in surprise, but was still holding onto his glasses when he looked down at the pony’s expectant smile. Sandbar softly shushed the nerdy gryphon when he tightened both ends of the belt. “Sssshhhhhhh… Just stand still and let me help you get dressed…”
Sandbar took hold of Gallus’ other claw, managing to pry it away from his crotch. Even though his bulge was still prominent, even throbbing through the fabric in response to Sandbar’s close proximity, the pony kept a trusting smile pointed up at his friend’s face. He slid the belt’s end through the buckle, before reaching up to grab the bottom of Gallus’ shirt. “I’ll tuck this in for you…”
He only took a couple seconds tucking Gallus’ shirt within the waistband of his pants, reaching all around and getting in closer to his crotch. Gallus tensed up with his headgear clenched shut, and he closed his eyes in an attempt to settle himself down. Unfortunately, both Sandbar and his girlfriend could see the stiffening bulge that was taking up more of the gryphon’s right pantleg. He breathed out in a petrified wheeze through his braces, and tried to speak up while Sandbar got his pants put on. “Nnnnnffff… T-Thandbar, I… I think I can dreth mythelph--MMPHHH!!”
“Oop! Sorry about that~” Sandbar pulled back with both hooves sticking up to show he was no longer touching him. He didn’t mean to accidentally touch Gallus’ cock-bulge after tightening the belt, but his blush did little to hide the cheeky smirk on his muzzle. Yona giggled with both hooves over her mouth, but brought them down quickly enough to speak up.
“Jeepers, Sandbar~ It’s almost like pony can’t resist the gryphon like that…”
Sandbar sighed and shot a flustered glance back at her; in response, the yak just snickered and perked her brows knowingly. Gallus looked like he wanted to say something, but his braced-beak hung agape in a moment of stunned silence. “... uhhhh… r… r-rethitht? What do you…”
His eyes kept moving between Sandbar and Yona, while his cheeks became a deep purple against his blue feathers. Yona waited for her coltfriend to speak up, which allowed him enough time to breathe out and give a cocky grin back at her. “Hmmmm… Well, what about you, Yona?”
Since Gallus was properly dressed in the basics already, Sandbar took that moment to turn around and face Yona while beside the gryphon. One of his forelegs wrapped around Gallus’ back, causing the nerd to stiffen up with newfound confusion. Sandbar caused his friend’s feathers to ruffle out along his neck when he leaned in close and nuzzled his side. All the while, the pony smiled back at Yona and flaunted his position. “Well… Can you blame me, hun?~”
Yona didn’t wait for Gallus to process her coltfriend’s question, and merely shook her head in response. “Hmph… No. Yona does not blame Sandbar~”
Gallus’ brows were now fully above the frames of his glasses, as his eyes were nearly bulging out against the lenses. Meanwhile, both Yona and Sandbar turned their sights back to the gryphon. The stallion tightened his grip around Gallus’ back, and perked his brows to keep him nice and flustered. “Heh~ You feeling alright there, bud?”
“... uhhhhhh…” Gallus appeared more than a little frazzled in his frozen state, but he wasn’t able to pull away from Sandbar’s tight embrace. Instead, he could only watch as Yona took a teasingly long moment to pull herself off her coltfriend’s bed. Along with rolling on her back for “momentum” and stretching her legs wide apart, Yona made sure that nothing was unobstructed from view when she leaned back for a couple seconds. In that moment, the yak was splayed out in a blatant ‘Spread-Eagle’ position with her thick, glistening bush in full-view between her legs.
Gallus’ beak opened even more, but nothing but the faintest creak could come out while his pupils shrunk. “... nnnnnnnnghhhh~”
Sandbar, who was standing right beside his friend while his girlfriend “rolled herself off the bed,” waited until she was back on her hooves before leaning in close to Gallus’ ear. “Hmph~ I know, right?”
The gryphon yanked his head down to the pony beside him, who just perked his brows and motioned back towards her. Yona walked up to the two slowly, leaving Gallus’ knees trembling as he tried to keep standing upright. His erection was prodding against the inside of his slacks more obviously, to the point where a small stain of precum was beginning to seep through the khaki fabric. But with his claws firmly planted against his sides, he was left fairly exposed between the grinning stallion and yak.
“... ummm… wh… wha’th going on, guyth?” His voice sounded equally worried and intrigued, as if he was worried his friends were assimilated by a couple of Chrysalis’ drones. Meanwhile, Yona leaned forward to reach out past Gallus’ head, and pulled out a bright pair of red suspenders from the closet. She also retrieved a matching red tie, which she handed to Sandbar.
“Could Sandbar get Gallus’ tie? Yona not good with knots…” She then looked straight at Gallus with a cocky grin, and added cheekily, “Although, Yona willing to learn how to handle a knot sometime too~”
She then went around to strap the suspenders to the back of Gallus’ waistband, leaving the gryphon stunned after that blatant remark. When he looked back at Sandbar, the pony didn’t seem the slightest bit fazed by Yona’s wording. He reached in and got the tie wrapped around Gallus’ collar, doing a surprisingly good job tying it in place. “You know…” He shot a quick smirk at Gallus while the two were so close, and got the tie in place before finishing his words. “Yona and I were talking recently, and… We were considering trying some new things together as a couple~”
By that point, Gallus basically figured out what his friends were up to. Not only were Sandbar and Yona standing in front of him with obvious intent, but his bulging crotch was still leaking right in front of their faces. It was clear from their smiles that they were both into this, and were waiting for the gryphon to give a suitable response. The nerd needed to blink a couple times, but eventually spoke up with a quivering exhale. “G… G-Golly…”
Yona and Sandbar grinned wide, with the yak leaning down towards Gallus’ crotch. Sandbar reached out to grip the zipper of Gallus’ fly, but paused long enough to smirk up at him in wait. “So, Gallus… would you be interested in participating in a couple’s experiment?~”
Gallus twitched especially hard through his trousers, which was enough to make Yona chuckle amusedly; she was so close to his crotch that her hot breath could be felt through the fabric, causing Gallus to groan and leak out more precum. She pulled her head up so she was face-to-face with Gallus, while Sandbar slowly tugged down on the gryphon’s fly. Gallus’ beak shakily opened even more, but Yona placed a hoof up against his braces to keep him silent.
“Yona and Sandbar could easily help Gallus as well… would that interest Gallus at all?~”
He squirmed hard in front of the grinning yak, and throbbed hard enough in his pants for his erection to slip out of the now-open fly. Sandbar reeled back with a surprised giggle, while the tip of Gallus’ erection tried to emerge from his pants; unfortunately, the white fabric of his underwear was tightly wrapped over the tip, which made the reveal more comical than sexy. Either way, Gallus was left rightfully overwhelmed when he leaned back against the wall.
“Uhhh! Ummm…” He was looking away from both his friends’ grinning faces, and had to tug on his collar from how hot he was feeling. He gulped nervously and tried to readjust his glasses, mostly to try and reassess his thoughts. After closing his eyes to take a breath, he meekly stared back at the couple and trembled in place. “Mmmnnnghhh… W-Well, uhhhh… l… l-like what?”
The couple grinned even wider, with Sandbar nodding at his girlfriend and allowing her to speak on their behalf. She leaned in close to Gallus’ ear, and whispered in a devilish tone:
“Smolder told Yona what happened. If Gallus agrees, Yona promise to wedgie gryphon even harder than her~”
Gallus was taken aback when the yak pulled away with a smug grin. She and Sandbar waited with randy smiles on their faces, and took turns glancing down at the gryphon’s still-exposed zipper-boner. Instead of trying to tuck that back into his pants, Gallus needed another moment to breathe out and process Yona’s offer. When he finally looked back at both of them, his cheeks blushing hot enough to fog his glasses, he wheezed a couple times through his braces in contemplation.
“Uhhhh… w-well, ummm… I-In that cathe…” Gallus looked down at himself for a second, and came to a decision after a quick huff. He looked back at the couple in front of him, and gave a nervous nod before opening his beak.
“... if… if both if you do it, then I’m in~”
Yona and Sandbar were left wide-eyed for a moment, not expecting an answer that bold from their nerdy gryphon. But before Gallus could breathe out shakily in confirmation, the two were already beaming excitedly. “Ooh! Yona like the sound of that~”
“Yeah, me too…” Sandbar got in close beside his girlfriend, and the two shared one final kiss to solidify their feelings before continuing on. Meanwhile, Gallus gulped once more and tried loosening his tie. After the couple pulled their lips away, each of them grabbed hold of one of Gallus’ suspenders as they redirected their attention towards him.
“Hmmmm… Hey, Gallus…” Sandbar pulled up from the gryphon’s crotch, right as Yona loomed her head down and licked her lips. The yak reached down to try and dislodge Gallus’ underwear from the open fly; meanwhile, Sandbar whispered in his ear, “Would it be okay if you kept talking like you were? She thinks it makes you sound sexy~”
The stallion tried not to shudder after that request, and bit his lip while waiting for an answer. Gallus groaned and leaned his head back, feeling the yak’s warm lips wrapping around his still-covered head. If his tightie-whities weren’t in the way, he undoubtedly would’ve shot a thick load of precum right inside Yona’s mouth. But in that moment, Gallus was just trying to keep his head in check when he frantically nodded his head. “Nnnnffff… S… S-Sure thing, dude. Aaaahhhhhhh~”
He looked down at the hungry yak, who was perched right in front of the gryphon’s crotch with a sultry stare. He moaned out from the sight of her lustful gaze, and had to close his eyes when Sandbar nestled himself down beside her. The gryphon could feel one of their hooves grasping his crotch to free his cock from his increasingly tight confines; however, he had no idea which friend it was while his eyes were closed. All he could do was exhale in a pent-up squawk, and lean back against the wall with another moan. “Mnnnnghhh… Ohhhh… Oh, golly gee~”
Yona groaned through a bitten lip, just as the gryphon’s red-rocket of an erection sprung out through his open fly. Even though his pants were still buttoned and held up by belt and suspenders, he was able to use that little zipper-hole without much discomfort. The yak lunged in with a satisfied moan, and made Gallus gasp when her tongue slid up the underside of his shaft. The hot, throbbing flesh twitched uncontrollably against her tastebuds, and a hefty strand of precum shot out to land across her forehead.
“Mmmmmm~” Yona closed her eyes contentfully, while her coltfriend watched in envious awe. She took her time dragging her tongue up that girthy length, feeling every curve and crevice along that veiny avian shaft. By the time her tongue flicked across the bottom of his pointed tip, another string of precum landed right across her flaring snout. She giggled a little when she pulled back and noticed the gobsmacked look on Sandbar’s face.
“Hehehehe~” Yona didn’t give Gallus a moment to breathe, and kept him nice and tense when she reached out and grabbed the base with her hoof. The nerd clenched his eyes and moaned out even deeper, now throbbing in her grip as she began stroking his shaft at a teasingly slow pace. All the while, she stared her boyfriend down and waited for him to unfreeze himself in that flustered state. “Mmmmm… Come on, honey~”
Like the beckoning call of pheromones or instinct, Sandbar felt his body moving on its own accord to move in closer beside his girlfriend. His eyes never left the sight of Gallus’ meaty cock, which kept throbbing with every flick of Yona’s hoof working his shaft. The thick, ripening scent of Gallus’ cock was enough to make his mouth water, and he was left slack-jawed by the time Yona got him to knelt before the knotted beast. As he licked his lips in preparation, Yona gave a teasing nibble to the pony’s ear before growling into it:
“Go for it, Sandbar. Do it for Yona~”
He barely had a second to even moan out in pent-up elation, as he instantly lunged his head in with his muzzle wide-open. His eyes closed tightly shut, and he didn’t realize he was holding his breath until he wrapped his lips around the girth of Gallus’ shaft. The thick, leaking head could be felt prodding against the back of his tongue, but thankfully not far enough to risk triggering his gag-reflex just yet. The ripe, bitter flavor of Gallus’ cockmusk made him shudder in place, and he instinctively pushed his head in while drool built up in his muzzle. After swallowing a big mouthful of saliva, Sandbar got to work as he began fellating the moaning nerd.
“Oooohh! OOOHHHH!! Mmmmnnnghhhh…” Gallus was reeling hotly against the wall, and his claws shot down to grip the back of Sandbar’s head. Yona giggled in surprise and watched for a moment, appreciating the gay sight as a pervy voyeur while blushing to herself. Neither of the guys paid much notice to her, as they were too busy moaning with their eyes closed and savoring that first-time experience. Sandbar kept his lips in place as they slid up the gryphon’s shaft, making Gallus’ braces chatter while he shakily moaned in place. “Aaaahhhh… Oh, goth… Oh goth, Thandbar… w-willickerth!~”
“Mmmphh!~” Sandbar loved that last past, which he emphasized by pushing his lips back down that shaft as best as he could. He nearly choked on the gryphon cock when the head hit the back of his throat, but he was thankful that Gallus’ grip wasn’t too unforgiving. Despite drooling all over that nerdy cock, Sandbar was able to figure out the process enough to start a slow rhythm. His head began to move back and forth, and his breaths were more concentrated through his nostrils while he kept his muzzle working diligently. “Mmmmmmm…”
“Ooooohhhhh… Yona like~” The yak was lying on her side on the floor beside Sandbar, watching the fellatio up-close while grinning hotly. One of her hooves was nestled down to rub between her legs, causing her breathing to turn faint and rapid to match her growing blush. Gallus eventually took notice of what she was doing when he reopened his eyes, and the sight was enough to make him groan and shoot a few strands of precum down Sandbar’s throat. Fortunately, the pony just swallowed those loads without much pause and kept going.
“Aaahhh!~ Nnnfffff…” Yona was burying her hoof deeper into her dripping bush, causing the fruity scent of her sex to waft out amongst the boys’ shared musk. When she finally pulled her hoof away from her crotch with a groan, the keratin was absolutely glistening with a thick sheen of her syrupy excretions. Sandbar’s nostrils could be seen flaring just as he pulled his lips back across Gallus’ shaft; he paused what he was doing for only a moment, and pulled away from Gallus’ cock to lean in and lick Yona’s hoof. He groaned loudly enough to catch Gallus’ attention, and got a good taste of the yak before going back to his nerdy cocksucking.
“Aaaahhh!!~” Gallus moaned out from the return of Sandbar’s mouth, and Yona took that moment to bring her sex-soaked hoof right up to his open beak. As soon as he gasped, the gryphon’s eyes shot open when he was hit with that sudden, overbearingly sweet musk . He looked down at Yona’s hoof for only a second, seeing up-close just how matted her fur was with her personal nectar. He wasn’t sure if it was because of her scent or the sensation of Sandbar’s lips, but the nerd didn’t hesitate to lean in and give a small drag of his tongue across the keratin. “Nnnghhh…”
As soon as he caught the yak’s tangy, almost citrusy flavor on his tongue, his blush exploded across his face when he moaned in elation. Yona grinned with a knowing stare, recognizing that hunger from Sandbar’s first time. “Yeah, that’s it,” she purred while staring up at the nerd hotly. “Nnnffff… Keep going~”
“Aaahhh~” Gallus kept one claw around the back of Sandbar’s bobbing head, while his other claw grabbed hold of Yona’s wrist. He lunged in with his eyes closed, looking like a dorky deviant as he greedily licked up more of her hoof. The taste of her syrupy juices drove him wild, and he had to work around his headgear as best as he could to collect more of her distinct flavor. Meanwhile, Yona just huffed in pure satisfaction while admiring both of the horny boys.
“Hmph~ Yona could’ve made so much money doing this back home…”
Despite that tempting idea, the yak was more than satisfied with keeping these sessions free of charge. After the nerd finished cleaning off her hoof, she pulled it away and moved back down beside her boyfriend. “There’s a good birdie~”
Gallus moaned and closed his eyes, his beak hanging open while savoring that aftertaste lingering in the back of his throat. Sandbar was getting lost in his first-time fellatio, and almost didn’t notice Yona’s presence while working his muzzle up and down the shaft. He gave a few more slow, titillating slides of his lips across the veiny length, shivering each time he felt the appendage throb and shoot more precum into his hungry maw. While the nerd moaned and shivered over their heads, Sandbar paused long enough to notice his girlfriend’s randy smile beside him.
“Mmmmm…” The yak used a hoof to gently push him aside, and she leaned back in to resume her earlier work. “Yona really needed this…”
Much like her colfriend, Yona eagerly took that whole length inside of her mouth to continue the stimulation. Gallus kept groaning, but his voice intensified greatly when the yak’s muzzle came into play. Her tongue was much larger and thicker, and pressed right up against the underside of his shaft like a big, wet pillow. Even Sandbar shivered in awe as he watched her work, effortlessly picking up where he left off. Her head began to work up and down that knotted shaft at a regular pace, ensuring that Gallus’ braced beak would remain wide-open.
“AaaaaAAAAaaahhhh~” Gallus leaned against the wall while his claws were around the back of Yona’s head. The yak spent a couple minutes providing her own mouthwork, slathering her tongue all over that twitching member and keeping him moaning. Sandbar leaned in to take hold of one of those claws, and he placed it behind his own head while getting in closer beside Yona. Gallus’ claws clenched both of their heads a little tighter when he belted out, “Mnnghh, g-guys! Aaaahhh!!~ Golly… Hnnnghhh, oh jeeperth, keep going pleathe!”
“Aaaahhhhh~” Yona pulled her muzzle back with a wet pop, leaving Gallus’ cock twitching hard while coated in saliva. She pulled in Sandbar for a quick kiss, locking lips long enough for both of them to sigh contentfully with their eyes closed. When they finally pulled back with matching smiles, their eyes drifted back towards that stiff gryphon cock standing between their faces. Neither of them hesitated after looking up at Gallus’ moaning face, and they leaned in together to finish the nerd off.
“Nnnnnnnn…” “Aaaaahhhhh~”
Yona and Sandbar closed their eyes, and they moaned out in unison when they stuck out their tongues. Both of their appendages touched the sides of Gallus’ cock, and a couple fresh strings of precum spat out between their heads to land on the floor. Yona was the first to drag her tongue up that throbbing shaft, making sure to lap up a good amount of the precum coating the head. As for Sandbar, his tongue dragged downward to get a good taste of the gryphon’s balls.
“Aaahhh! AAHHHH!!~” Gallus had to cover his beak with both claws, not wanting to stir anyone else awake on this dormitory floor. He quivered from head to paws, and had to physically clamp his beak shut to keep from moaning like a bitch in heat. His body was entirely stiff and trembling, unable to move an inch before his two friends’ eager mouths. He could feel the yak and stallion’s tongues working in tandem, tantalizing every inch of cock while it was sticking out of his open zipper.
“Mmmmmmm…” Yona kept sharing the gryphon’s cock with Sandbar, savoring every hefty twitch that the appendage made against their open mouths. Sandbar went as far as to gently grip the base with his hoof, and began to stroke it while suckling on each of the balls individually. He eventually worked his tongue back up the knotted length, and got his muzzle back around the gryphon’s cockead. Gallus struggled even more to keep his voice at a respectable level, especially when Yona licked around her coltfriend’s hoof and caught a gooey strand of precum dangling off his wrist. “Aaahhhh~ Gallus so cute…”
“Nnnnnfffff!!~” Gallus may have been overwhelmed from his friends’ praising mouths, but he couldn’t think about the ramifications while reaching closer to his peak. His breathing became more intense as he reeled his head back, and tightened his grip on Yona and Sandbar’s heads. “Aaaahhhhh! Nnnnghhh… Oh golly! I… I’m gon… I’MGONNA!!”
Sandbar pumped his friend’s cock even more when he heard that dire shriek from above. Meanwhile, he and Yona moved their heads in even closer, keeping their mouths wide-open while the head was pointed at their faces. Yona gave a couple more tauntingly slow licks to the shaft, while Sandbar eagerly anticipated the load he was trying to shoot out. “Nnnnnffff~ C-Come on…”
“Yeaaahhhhhh…” Yona smirked devilishly up at the nerdy gryphon, perking her brows as enticingly as she could. “Come on, Gallus… Tell Yona and Sandbar what birdie wants~”
“AaaaaAAAAHHHH!!!~” Gallus’ legs buckled under his weight, and he almost pulled away from his friends’ faces when he slumped down against the wall. However, while the gryphon’s legs tried to straighten back upright, his cock was throbbing from every nerve intensifying around his friends’ tongues. He could feel himself about to cum at any second, but it was Yona’s words that made him moan out and risk giving in. “Nnnnghh! NNNFFFFF… I… I wa…”
He couldn’t even look down at either of them, since he was sure seeing either of their faces so close to his cock would set him off. So instead, his eyes clenched tightly shut when he took a breath and spoke with pure impulsion. “Aaaahhhh!! I… I… Iwantawedgieeeeeeee…”
His voice may have been all nasly and lispy through his braces, but the stallion and yak both heard that request clear as day. Yona grinned wide and immediately pulled from the gryphon’s front, allowing her boyfriend to reposition himself and get his muzzle around Gallus’ cock. He was still jerking the base with a hoof, but his eyes closed when he lunged in and swallowed over half the length with a hungry moan. The pony eagerly bobbed his head up and down as best as he could, nearly triggering his gag-reflex each time he pushed in. Meanwhile, Yona shuddered from her coltfriend’s enthusiastic cock-sucking while getting her hooves behind Gallus.
“Nnnnfffff! G-Gallus, move forward!~” Since he was leaning up against the wall, Yona had to physically pull him forward so she could reach back and fulfill his request. Gallus could barely function while Sandbar was blowing him, but he moaned out the instant he felt both of the yak’s hooves digging beneath his waistband. As soon as she felt the elastic band of his underwear, she let out a pervy growl and grinned immensely. “Aaaaahhhhh~ Yona wanted to do this for a while…”
Yona didn’t give Gallus the moment to breathe in first, and caught him off-guard with a sudden yank with all her might. Since Yona was technically the strongest of the friend group (not counting Ocellus transforming to other species), she was able to easily lift Gallus’ hind-paws off the floor.
“BRRRRAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWK!!!~”
True to her word, Yona did indeed deliver a more devastating wedgie than Smolder. The gryphon’s underwear was yanked out from his pants with full-force, eliciting a hearty squawk that sounded like an eagle being pinned down by a bute predator. The tightie-whities were pulled out as far as the elastic could allow, sending an intense bout of pain and pleasure that put Gallus’ mind in a sudden blank. His balls and asscrack received that familiarly intense twinge of pain that made his thighs tense up, and his cock to spasm hard in Sandbar’s mouth. In addition, the titillating suckles of the stallion’s lips was more than enough to set him over the edge.
“Nnnnghhhh!! NnnnnNNNNNNGHHHHHH…”Gallus squirmed and writhed while hanging by his underwear, and his hips thrusted repeatedly in midair against Sandbar’s mouth. His cock pistoned between those lips with several intense throbs, before unloading without warning straight inside his muzzle. Sandbar’s eyes shot wide-open, just as the first couple of thick ropes shot to the back of his throat. He tried to pull back while Gallus continued to dangle and moan in a strained voice; however, due to the gryphon’s cock still spurting fresh strings of cum, Sandbar ended up giving himself an accidental facial. Several thick, gooey strands of Gallus’ cum draped all over the pony’s face, landing across the bridge of his muzzle and his shaggy mane.
“Mmmphh!~” Sandbar finally closed his mouth and pulled away completely, while Gallus just moaned weakly in Yona’s hooves and continued hanging in post-orgasmic bliss. His still-erect cock was sticking out of his trousers, but thankfully no strands seemed to have landed on his new clothes. A thick sheen of his cum was lingering across his spent member, with several drops falling to the floor. He was too exhausted after that climax to do much, and just hung his head in his wedgied state. Meanwhile, Sandbar was struggling to keep his composure when he got back on his hooves, and grimaced from the hefty load of gryphon cum still in his mouth. “Nnnnghhh…”
“Oooooohhhhh~” Yona was staring her boyfriend down with a very perverse grin, and lowered Gallus so he could settle on his paws again. The nerdy gryphon ended up collapsing on the floor, panting heavily while his underwear was still stretched-out. As he laid on the ground with his cock still sticking out of the zipper. Yona kept a hungry look on Sandbar and licked her lips. “Mmmmm… Sandbar better come over here now~”
The pony was just about to try and swallow Gallus’ load, but paused when he looked back at her with his eyes widened and his cheeks puffed-out. The yak gave a “come hither” motion with her hoof, which pulled the stallion in without a word like some sort of trance. The pony only needed to take a couple steps before Yona pulled him in by both hooves. “Mmmmphh~ Come to Mama!”
Yona caught Sandbar and Gallus off-guard when she pulled in the stallion powerfully, and planted her muzzle against his for a deep kiss. Sandbar’s eyes widened even more as he felt her tongue pry open his lips, unleashing that thick volley of cum between their mouths. Gallus was left totally stunned when he looked up in his spent state, and watched his two friends eagerly sharing his cum in a sloppy kiss. Sandbar’s eyes eventually closed in contentment, and he hummed before hugging Yona back and embracing the snowballing himself.
“H-Holy…” Gallus shuddered hard on the floor, with his cock still erect from the perverted sight happening over him. Yona and Sandbar made out for nearly half a minute, with their throats each convulsing to swallow up whatever was collected in their mouths. Their tongues and lips meshed together in depraved pleasure, lapping up every drop of Gallus’ load to share so early in the morning. Even after their muzzles finally broke apart, Sandbar moaned a little and licked up the strands left on Yona earlier. She giggled with a touched smile, and nuzzled the pony in return while blushing warmly.
“Hehehehe~ Yak impressed by Sandbar’s initiative…” She waited until Sandbar pulled back with a sheepish smile, and stared lovingly into his eyes. She tightened her hooves around his back, pulling him in closer before cooing sweetly. “Mmmmm… Yona love Sandbar so much~”
“Heh~” Sandbar giggled a little with a flustered blush, but was quick to respond just as sincerely. “I love you too, Yona…”
The couple spent another minute kissing more normally, appreciating that moment of aftercare following their first shared experience. As for Gallus, who was still on the floor with his underwear stretched-out, he could only roll his eyes with a blushed smile of his own; sure, what just happened was unbelievably weird, but he was still really happy for his friends regardless. He waited a moment before groaning to himself and catching their attention. “Wow, uhhh… g-golly guyth… That wath thertainly thomething~”
Both of them giggled with satisfied grins back down at the nerd on the floor. Sandbar went over to help the gryphon up, while Yona huffed with a piqued smirk on both of them. “Yona can’t deny that claim,” she stated with a carefree shrug. “Hopefully Gallus isn’t too weirded-out~”
“Ehhhh… w-well, ummm… I gueth not…” After being pulled back to his paws, Gallus took a second to quickly tuck his cock back in his pants. Yona and Sandbar tried not to giggle from the sight of him awkwardly stuffing his underwear back into his slacks; although, it also gave the yak a chance to nudge her coltfriend with a reminding smirk. The pony quickly recalled what was said earlier, which made him excitedly try to get behind Gallus without looking too suspicious. Fortunately for him, Gallus was too preoccupied with cleaning the lenses of his classes with his shirt. “Jeethe… Hmph~ If I knew thethe outfith would make thuphh an impact, I would’v--BRAAAAWWWKKKKK!!!”
Gallus wasn’t able to finish his statement before Sandbar’s impulsive thoughts took over. Since the gryphon insisted on both of them participating, the pony didn’t wait for confirmation before yanking up his friend’s underwear with both hooves. He coudn’t give him a wedgie nearly as intense as his girlfriend, but he still pulled hard enough to lift Gallus’ paws off the floor for a second. The nerd squawked out in strained shock, his front-claws giving out and causing him to fall forward; but alas, all that did was make him hang more direly from Sandbar’s hooves and cause his backside to dangle off the floor.
“Nnnnnffffff!!~” Sandbar shuddered and bit his lip, absolutely loving the sight of that firm gryphon ass being bound by so much tight fabric. He even went as far as to give a couple tugs, causing Gallus to bob up and down without any escape. Gallus clamped his beak shut with both claws, but was still moaning deeply from the overwhelming stimulation. Sandbar eventually let go due to the weight, causing the gryphon to flop down to the floor with his underwear re-stretched and sticking out of his pants. The pony breathed out with an invigorated shiver, needing to pull away and cross his legs. “Mmmmmphhhh… H-Holy crap~”
Yona just giggled and admired her coltfriend’s strained and overwhelmed state. Sandbar quickly reached back in his closet for one of his personal towels, and cleaned off any lingering strands of gryphon cum from his mane and face. She made a mental note to pull her boyfriend aside as soon as possible before classes start, just to make sure he wouldn’t end up with blue-balls after all this. But for the moment, the yak was more focused on Gallus when she helped him up with a hoof. “Therrrrrre Gallus go… That too much?”
“Mnnnnghhhh… I, uhhh… I thould thay yeth…” Gallus winced and shuddered from that secondary wedgie, which felt a lot more painful after his orgasm already subsided. But despite his skewed beak and discomforted look, the gryphon didn’t seem too upset while stuffing his tightie-whities back behind his waistband. Of course, by the time he stood back up in his outfit, he needed a moment to wipe the sweat from his brow. “... b-but uhhh… th… that wathn’t too bad either…”
Sandbar groaned with a bitten lip, and turned around to smirk back at Gallus. Both he and Yona looked more than pleased with the outcome, with the latter making sure to toss the nerd the box of doughnuts. “Here, Gallus. Yona and Sandbar both feel you earned the rest of them~”
“Uhhhh… t-thankth…” Gallus had to sit back in his desk-chair for a moment, still breathing heavily after everything that just happened. Even with his pants re-zipped, the thick bulge of his cock could be seen clear as day while sitting with his legs spread apart. He pulled out one of the chocolate-covered doughnuts, and took a big bite before groaning in pleasure. “Nnnnffffff… Wow, thethe are really good!”
“Yeah, Yona knows~” While Gallus began munching down on the doughnuts, Yona gave both of the guys kisses on the cheek before making her leave. “Alright, Yona needs to get ready for classes! Could Sandbar walk Yona to her dorm, please?~”
“Oh, sure thing!” Sandbar made sure that the rest of Gallus’ accessories were picked up and left on the gryphon’s bed, including his loafers and pocket-protector. He also grabbed his saddlebags before walking over to the door. “Uhh, I’ll be back later, dude. I’ll see you later in class, okay?”
“Uhh, thure…” Gallus couldn’t say much while his beak was stuffed with a second pastry, but he gave a quick talons-up to both of them. He was still blushing by the time the two finally left the dorm, and he waited until the door closed to let out a heavy sigh.
“Whoo! What the… What the heck wath all that about?!” He needed to shake his head clear, still unsure how to process Yona and Sandbar’s early-morning quickie. But at the same time, another bite of his jelly-filled doughnut made him roll his eyes and breathe out more calmly. “Hmmm…”
He looked down at his outfit for a moment, and shrugged before muttering to himself, “Eh, I gueth clothe do make the man~”
Meanwhile outside the dorm room, Sandbar and Yona were hurriedly making their way down the hall while giggling like a couple of schoolfillies. Sandbar was trying to lead the way, but it was obvious he was having trouble walking while his erect stallionhood kept smacking the underside of his barrel. Luckily, Yona was right beside him for protection, and looking just as eager to get alone with Sandbar again. “Nnnnnfffff… So, did Sandbar do it?”
“Hmm? O-Oh yeah!” Sandbar almost forgot about what he had done before he and Yona solicited the nerd. But with a cheerful smile, the stallion pulled out the half-empty pill-bottle he had stashed in his bag. He tossed it over to her, which she grabbed with a hoof to reveal the name on the front.
“Hmmm… Stiffinol?” She chortled a little and glanced back at him. “Really? Why can’t ponies just say ‘Boner Pills’ like normal?”
“Ehh, I’m probably not the one to ask about pharmaceutical guidelines. All I know is that the dosage shouldn’t be dangerous for gryphons.” He took a moment to glance back down the hall where they came from. He smirked a little with a devilish gleam in his eyes. “Hmph… Hopefully he can get through that whole box before lunch~”
“Did Sandbar put them in every doughnut?”
“Mmhmm, although I only put a little bit in each one…” He turned back to Yona with a confident smirk. “And according to Ocellus’ notes, he should feel the effects kicking in just before second period…”
That made Yona grin wide with an eager nod. “Mmmmm… Yona like~”
