Twilight's Sleep Casting

by Baal

A Fresh Start

Previous Chapter

Eventually Twilight regained consciousness, or at least what she thought was consciousness at first. She was again in the place inside her mind where the transformations had been happening.

"W-What the?! Am I... asleep? How could I be asleep? I was writing that letter, and then I..."

She thought hard, but couldn't remember anything after that.

"It was I who called you here, Twilight Sparkle," said a powerful, commanding voice.

Twilight frantically looked around her to see where it had come from. She had no real sense of direction in this place, and it sounded like the voice had come from everywhere at once. From the spotted white area above her descended Luna, the princess of the night. Twilight was too surprised to comment on the princess' dramatic entrance.

Luna had a stern look on her face, but she did not seem angry, rather she gave an air of concern and worry. She was wearing a long, black and blue dress that matched her hair, and the area as well. Her dress fluttered a bit as she brought herself to the same level as Twilight, so they could speak face to face.

"Princess Luna?! What's going on here?" Twilight tried to say, but her thoughts echoed through the area before she could speak. They were inside her mind after all.

"I'm sure you are very confused, but please allow me to explain," said the princess.

Luna moved in close to Twilight and looked her in the eyes as she began to speak. Twilight had to keep her thoughts in check, as anything she thought too distinctly would become known to the princess.

"Two weeks ago, I was travelling through peoples dreams. As I usually do, I checked upon yours-"

"You usually check my dreams?" Twilight thought, accidentally interrupting Luna.

"You and rest of the elements of harmony. You six hold a great burden of responsibility, so it is important that I frequently confirm your mental health."

"I guess that makes sense."

"Anyway, I was checking your dream when I noticed that you were self aware that you were asleep."

"Is that so strange?" Twilight asked, almost interrupting the princess again.

"Before that night, when else had you been self aware in your sleep?"

"I... I see your point."

"Now if I may continue, I was surprised to see you cast a spell on yourself. I would have intervened, or at least found out what you were doing, but you woke up before I could take action. When you woke up, my connection was lost, but from what I could tell you didn't know what had happened either, so I scryed you instead contacting you. What I saw was... interesting to say the least.

"Wait, have you been spying on me?!"

"Twilight, I'm the princess of the night, what else am I supposed to do all day?" asked Luna nonchalantly.

"P-Princess that's a huge invasion of my privacy! stuttered Twilight.

"Oh, it's not like I've been some creepy voyeur. I always stopped watching whenever you went to do something private, like use the toilet, or spend time in Applejack's room. You certainly spent a lot of time in Applejack's room."

Twilight couldn't think of something to come back with. She just blushed and averted her gaze. There was silence for a few moments until the princess began to speak again.

"My watching has advantages you know, I believe I know why this happened."

"Y-You do?!" exclaimed Twilight as her eyes widened a little.

"Yes, despite how rare this is, you actually are not the first experienced magician to suffer this phenomena. In fact, it even happened to Star Swirl the Bearded once after a particularly long research session."

"Was he researching dreams?"

"I don't know, but what he was researching isn't important, it's based on the length of time. You mentioned to Applejack that you had never, *ahem* masturbated before that day in her room. You see, going without sexual release can raise the chance of sleep casting. Your birthday was just the first time it happened."

Twilight just stared ahead of her blankly, she was having trouble processing what she had just heard.

"Well Princess that's not... I mean, you've got to be... I... Why?"

"Excessive sexual buildup can cause deterioration of a person's control of magic, at least subconsciously. I'm surprised my sister never taught you about this, although I suppose it may have been because you were underage until last year."

While what Luna was telling her didn't sound completely improbable, something did stick out as particularly strange.

"But last night I changed even though I... well yesterday morning I... y-you know..." Twilight trailed off. Despite knowing that Luna knew exactly what she was doing, it was still pretty embarrassing.

"After Applejack changed her mind yesterday, you can't possibly say you went home satisfied."

"A-Applejack said she didn't want to and I'm okay with that and... Hey wait I thought you said you didn't watch us when we were in her room," said Twilight with a suspicious glare.

Princess Luna's eyes went wide for a moment, realizing that, in her attempts to put Twilight's mind at ease, she may have said a little too much.

"Look Twilight, if I'm going to help you, you're going to have to trust me."

Twilight continued with her suspicious look a moment longer before she continued to speak.

"Okay, fine. Please don't spy on me any more without my permission though, okay?"

"You have my word... party pooper."

"If you were having so much fun watching me, then why are you suddenly helping me? asked Twilight with a little annoyance.

"I saw how hard it was for you to write that letter to my sister. I felt a bit bad that you had to go through so much, and I decided that I would help you get rid of this problem without my sister ever having to find out. It's the least I could do.

Twilight was about to thank the princess, but Luna continued her thought.

"And all's well that ends well, right? It was actually a good thing that I was watching you!" she said with a contented look on her face.

"Anyway, what's your plan?" asked Twilight with a little more annoyance in her voice this time.

"I'll just use my sleep magic to force you to sleep cast. Simple as that."

"Are you sure that's going to work? 'Cause last time I sleep cast... Well, you know. said Twilight as she looked down at her horse legs.

"We've got about a ninety percent chance of this working, so it's probably our best bet. If it doesn't work though... well we can just try again until it does!"

"P-Princess I'm not sure-"

"Nope! Here we go!" interrupted Luna.

Luna's horn began to glow and a familiar, warm light enveloped Twilight's body. Just like before, it got hotter and brighter until just when she felt she couldn't take it any more, she woke up.

Lying on the floor of her room, the magician girl slowly opened her eyes. She sat up, her back aching from lying on the floor for so long. Looking at her two human legs, she went a bit wide eyed at the sudden realization that she had returned to normal. She shouldn't have been too surprised though, as the odds of success were greatly in her favor. Her dick was gone as well, which she felt mixed emotions about, but that was something that could be remedied if she really wanted.

"Alright! It worked!" she yelled.

"Twi! You alright up there?!" shouted Applejack as she ran up the stairs.

Applejack and Spike burst into the room just as Twilight was getting to her feet. The mage was feeling a bit wobbly after having just gotten used to using horse legs, but she quickly got her balance back.

AJ and Spike stopped in their tracks upon seeing Twilight.

"Ah! Yer back to normal! What did ya do?" asked Applejack excitedly.

"Well, it's a bit long, but I'll try to explain."

For a few minutes Twilight tried to describe all the things the princess had told her. She left out some of the details about her sex life though, not exactly feeling comfortable telling Spike about those kinds of things yet. When she finally finished she sat down on her bed, feeling a bit exhausted from all the talking, thinking, and stress she had been through this morning.

"Wow Twi, that's a lot to take in... but I'm glad you're okay an' all," said Applejack as she sat down next to Twilight.

"Y-Yeah I'm, uh, glad for you to T-Twilight," said Spike as he stared at his feet. He hadn't moved from the spot he was standing in near the door since he came in and had barely looked at his big sis the whole time she was explaining her story.

"Spike are you okay? You seem really nervous," said the magician girl.

"Well you, uh... You aren't wearing any pants..."

Twilight's eyes went wide and she immediately threw her hands between her legs. She was shocked that she had somehow not noticed until this point.

"Why didn't you guys say something earlier?!"

"Well ah was fine with it," said Applejack with a wry grin.

"You're not helping! Could you just get me some underwear or something?"

Later at the park.

Twilight and Applejack were walking down a long, stone path surrounded by trees. The afternoon sun poured through them warming the ground and feeding the plant life below. Eventually they came upon a bench and decided to take a quick rest.

"Ya know, I'm not sure ah'm very comfortable knowing Princess Luna was watching us that whole time. Ah mean, she may be royalty, but ah don't think that really makes it okay," said Applejack.

"Well I'm sure Princess Celestia will do something about it when she reads the letter I'm going to write."

"Yer still gonna tell Celestia about this?"

"Yeah, because I think I learned something about honesty and swallowing your pride through this whole mess. If I had just come clean to the princess from the beginning, I could have avoided a lot of trouble."

"Trouble, huh..." said Applejack as she stared into the distance with a defeated expression.

"Well not all of it was bad," said Twilight as she pulled her girlfriend into a loving hug.

AJ returned the embrace, and the two of them stayed like that for a while.

"Speaking of which, I think we should tell the rest of our friends as well. After all, if they really our friends then they shouldn't have a problem with... us."

Applejack just smiled and hugged Twilight a little tighter.


Author's Note

Sorry for all the last minute exposition, but I think I'm a bit happier with this ending. The other one didn't need as much explaining, but it wasn't as well written and was more out of the blue. Again if you spot any mistakes or have any questions I'd be happy to respond. I plan on doing other stories in the same universe in the future so look out for that. Thanks for reading!
