Ember's

"Finally," said Lucky Break, shooting to his feet as the door opened and a plump, middle-aged mare came out.

Quick Hoof rolled his eyes as his more impetuous friend danced impatiently in place. Lucky was a chestnut unicorn, with a soot-black mane and tail and a light blue horseshoe cutie mark.

Quick was a unicorn too, but he was a pale orange, with a cream colored mane and tail. His cutie mark was an hourglass. It had nothing to do with time travel, as he was constantly having to tell ponies. It was for skillful time management. He was never late for anything. A visit to Ember's, however, was not the kind of thing that lent itself to strict scheduling, much as Lucky might have wished otherwise. Quick chuckled as Lucky practically bolted to the desk and dropped his bits in front of the stallion there. "All right, can we go in now?"

"Certainly," said the stallion with a nod. "If you intend to go in together, the other gentlecolt must also pay. The fee is per-pony."

Quick got to his feet and pulled out his bits. He gave Lucky a glance before doing it. "Hey, are you really sure about this?"

"Hell yeah! It's going to be awesome. You and me, bro, with the finest mare in Canterlot between us. Just the thing to wash the taste of that Sunflower bitch out of your mouth. Now come on."

Quick sighed. Sunflower hadn't been a bitch, exactly. She'd been more than a little rude, but that had been his fault. She had been pretty, and he'd liked her in a lot of ways, but somehow the chemistry between them had been all wrong. She had gotten frustrated with his lack of interest in her physical charms, and Quick couldn't blame her one bit. But maybe Lucky was right, maybe a good session with a mare would be what he needed. So he dropped his bits on the desk and followed Lucky back into the room beyond.

He knew about Ember's, so he was expecting the changeling seated in the center of the room. Though he hadn't thought she would be quite so tall.

"Welcome," she said, smiling down at them. "I am Ember."

Lucky flashed her a charming grin. "I'm Lucky Break. This is my buddy Quick Hoof."

"Welcome," said Ember, smiling at them both with a smile that was somehow warm and friendly, despite displaying an alarming set of fangs. "What can I do for you?"

"Well, I know what I want," said Lucky, grinning. "I've always had this thing about alicorns, and the younger one, Twilight, is one hot filly. So if I get to pick, that's what I want."

Ember turned her attention to Quick, who shifted from hoof to hoof under that penetrating gaze. He tried to picture some mare or other. Did he like Twilight too? He didn't know her personally, but he'd caught a few glimpses of her, and she was definitely pretty, in a bookish sort of way. He tried to visualize her in a sexy pose, but the image twisted itself into something else. He shook the traitorous thought off.

"Do you have a fantasy?" said Ember, still looking at him. Quick hesitated, then shrugged.

"Twilight is fine, I guess."

"You seem reluctant."

Quick shrugged again. "I just... I guess I don't fantasize much." At least not about anything normal. He pushed that thought away. His fantasies were too weird to consider sharing in front of Lucky.

"You don't have to do anything you don't want to," said the changeling gently. "The stallion at the front will be happy to refund you if you're having second thoughts."

Quick glanced over at Lucky, then shook his head. "I'm fine." He wasn't having second thoughts, he simply felt... disinterested, he supposed was the only word for it. He was willing enough to give this a try, it just didn't excite him as much as he'd hoped it would.

"Very well. If you change your mind, I will happily stop at any point. Simply let me know."

Quick nodded. Lucky echoed it. Ember smiled and got to her feet. "So. First allow me to change." Green fire washed over her, and when it was gone a purple alicorn stood there. She was short, especially for an alicorn, and fairly slender, but rounded in all the right places. Quick could see why Lucky had a thing for her. "How is this?" she asked, her voice no longer the buzzing voice of a changeling, but the warm tones of Twilight Sparkle.

Lucky was practically drooling at the sight. "That's just fine," he said dreamily.

Quick had to chuckle at his friend's enraptured expression.

"Excellent!" Ember bounced just a bit on her hooves, her wings half-spread with enthusiasm. "Time to retire to the bedroom, then." She led the way through a door, with Lucky directly behind her, his eyes fixed on her flank. Quick, behind him, found his own eyes straying to Lucky's flank, watching the twitching of his tail and hoping for a glimpse of what lay beneath. When he realized what he was doing he yanked his head up, focusing his attention on Ember instead.

Once in the bedroom, Ember sat on the edge of the bed and looked between the two stallions. "So! There are lots of different ways to go about this, what do you two prefer?"

"I got dibs on mounting her," said Lucky, grinning hugely.

Quick snorted with amusement. Ember giggled, then shot a glance at Quick and asked, "Is that fine with you?"

"Yeah."

"Wonderful! Why don't you sit in the middle of the bed."

Slightly puzzled, Quick climbed into the bed and sat on his haunches.

He felt Ember's magic grabbing him, adjusting his position, so that he was sitting near the edge of the bed, facing her. She leaned over the bed, her forelegs resting between his legs, and put her head down to his lap. That left her hindquarters standing ready for Lucky. She glanced back at him, her tail flicking up. "How's this?"

"Oh yeah," said Lucky. His muzzle went under her tail immediately, rubbing against Ember's marehood. She let out a little squeak of delighted surprise, before turning back to Quick and nuzzling against his sheath. It did feel very pleasant. He knew that seeing the alicorn mare stretched out below him should have been more than merely "pleasant" but though she was definitely nice to look at, it didn't really do that much for him. The sensation was good though, so he let his eyes slide half-closed, just concentrating on how it felt.

Ember made a soft sound of pleasure, whether from enjoying what she was doing to him or from what Lucky was doing to her Quick didn't know. Her muzzle slid down his sheath to the base, and rubbed sensuously against his balls. Soon she was licking at them, her tongue caressing them. She even took one into her mouth, which felt a little odd, he'd never had a mare do that before, but it was definitely good. His cock began to emerge from its sheath, growing and hardening slowly.

With a low moan, Ember ran her muzzle up his sheath and along his hardening length. The velvety touch of it made Quick let out a soft moan of his own.

Ember paused in her attentions, making another soft sound of pleasure. Quick opened his eyes to see Lucky up on his hind legs, his forelegs resting on Ember's shoulders. His cock was out, the black length of it rubbing against Ember's hindquarters. Quick licked his lips, watching as it bobbed up and down against the velvety purple fur of Ember's flank.

Ember wiggled her rump, letting out a little needy whimper. Lucky's ever-present grin broadened. He shifted his hips, his cock vanishing from Quick's view as he pressed it against Ember's entrance. Ember was no longer doing anything to Quick, but he didn't mind. He watched her with something like envy as she let out little moaning sounds, her wings flaring out, her body shifting and squirming while Lucky filed her.

"Mmm, yeah." Lucky's grin was still in place, but his eyes were closed as he started to pump his hips, thrusting into Ember. Ember lowered her head and began licking and sucking at Quick's now fully hardened cock, making muffled sounds of pleasure as she did so. Quick's eyes came unfocused, his mind drifting away from the scene in front of him as he let himself simply enjoy the sensations he was feeling.

His attention was pulled back to reality by the sight of Lucky's horn bobbing up and down directly in front of him. Lucky was bent over Ember's back now, his whole body rocking back and forth as he took her. This put the blunt spiral of his horn so close to Lucky it was almost touching his muzzle. Quick licked his lips, his attention suddenly fully focused on his friend's horn. He felt an almost overwhelming impulse to suck it. His pleasure-fogged brain didn't fight against the sudden urge. Surely Lucky wouldn't mind. Horn sucking felt good, didn't it? That's what they'd come here for was to feel good, right?

Quick leaned forward and captured the tip of Lucky's horn between his lips. The sensation of its hardness in his mouth felt amazing, sending a shiver of pleasure through his entire body. He leaned further forward, taking the horn deeper, suckling on it.

Then it was abruptly jerked away from him as Lucky yanked his head back. "What the hell?"

Quick flushed, suddenly realizing what he'd done. He'd tried to give his friend a horn job! "S-sorry," he stammered.

Lucky stepped back, pulling from Ember, who had lifted her head from Quick's cock and was looking at at the two stallions in puzzlement.

"I'm not gay, dude!" said Lucky, glaring at Quick.

Quick shook his head rapidly. "I'm not either!"

"Like hell you're not! You just sucked my horn!"

"I just like horns, okay! Mares have them too!"

"Last time I looked I was not a mare, and you were sucking mine! That's gay as hell!"

Ember cleared her throat pointedly, interrupting the argument. "And what, exactly, is wrong with being gay?"

Both stallions looked at her. Lucky's ears flicked, and he opened his mouth as if to snap something at her, then he shut it again and looked away. "Nothing," he muttered. "But I'm not gay."

Quick flushed, his ears flattened with shame, and looked away as well. "Nothing is wrong with it. I just... I'm not either. I've never liked a stallion. I'm not... I haven't..." He stopped, trying to find a way to put it into words. "I don't want a coltfriend. I just..."

"Just like horns?" said Ember gently.

"Yeah. And... cocks, I guess." Quick heaved a sigh. "Maybe I am gay."

Lucky scowled. "Hello. Liking cock is the definition of gay. If you like cock, you're gay."

Ember chuckled and shook her head. "Not necessarily. Although whether one likes cock or not, one should not simply start sucking somepony's horn without asking." She shot Quick a firm look.

Quick flushed. "Sorry."

"But it really is more complicated than simply straight or gay."

"Oh come on!" said Lucky. "How complicated can it be? You like mares or you like stallions, that's that."

Ember grinned, sitting back on her haunches between the two of them. "Oh? I like both mares and stallions. What about me?"

"Okay, so you like mares, or stallions, or both. Three options, simple stuff."

"Not so simple." Ember shook her head. "Trust me. I've been dealing with the sexual needs of ponies for a long time now. There are so many combinations of physical desires, romantic interests, and mental quirks that there's no way to list them all." She turned to Quick. "Maybe you are gay. There's no shame at all in liking other stallions. Or maybe you're not. Maybe it's more complicated than that. Tell me, have you ever felt romantic attraction towards a mare?"

"Maybe. I like being with mares. They're nice. They're pretty, and interesting, and..." Quick waved a hoof vaguely. "I like mares," he finally concluded.

"And you don't like stallions like that?"

Quick shook his head. "No, not at all."

"I see. Then how do you feel about the idea of a mare who has a cock?"

Quick flushed bright red. He could feel it all the way to the tips of his ears. "I... uh... it's..." He swallowed and tried to get a grip on himself. "I've, uh, fantasized about that," he finally said.

Ember grinned. "Well then! It is still possible that you are gay, or bisexual, and simply haven't met the right stallion. But it is also quite possible that you are perfectly straight, and simply have a bit of a phallic fetish. In which case..." She turned to Lucky. "How do you feel about mares with cocks?"

Lucky snorted. "That sounds weird as hell. I don't want to touch a cock, or look at a cock, or do anything with a cock. I like mares. I like pussies."

Ember chuckled. "Oh? Have you ever seen a mare with a strap-on? Was that weird?"

Lucky blinked in bafflement, then furrowed his brow in thought. "Well... no. I've always thought that was kind of hot, especially seeing one mare do another. But that's not the same as having a real cock!"

"Indeed not! Your interests are perfectly natural, and I do not expect you to want a cock, artificial or real. But for the sake of your friend, would you be willing to make a small compromise?" Green fire suddenly flashed over her. When it was gone she still looked like Twilight Sparkle, but her seated position made it quite clear that something had indeed changed. Quick found his mouth suddenly dry as he looked at the half-erect shaft that had appeared between Ember's hind legs.

She rose, turning her rump towards Lucky, smiling back over her shoulder at him. Her tail flicked aside, and faint hint of Lucky's usual grin returned at the sight of the feminine slit that still lay beneath it. "How about it?" said Ember. "I'll make sure you get this sort of view, and your friend can enjoy the other side."

"Ah hell, sure, why not?"

"Quick Hoof? Will that be all right with you?"

Quick nodded swiftly and eagerly. "Yes. Definitely. Absolutely."

Ember laughed delightedly. "Wonderful! Well, in that case, let me just arrange things." Her brow furrowed in thought for a moment, then she smiled and nodded confidently. "Okay. Lucky, if you would lie on your back on the bed, please?"

"Yes ma'am," said Lucky, his grin back in full force. Quick moved aside on the huge bed, making room for Lucky to sprawl out comfortably on his back. Ember climbed into the bed as well and straddled Quick, facing away from him.

She ground her hips against him, and Quick could see Lucky's cock springing to attention, standing up just in front of Ember's own pinkish shaft. "How's this?" asked Ember.

Lucky put his hooves to her flanks, just over her cutie marks, and squeezed. "This is just fine by me," he said happily. Ember chuckled and lifted herself up a bit. Quick resisted the temptation to reach in and help position Lucky's cock beneath Ember. He wasn't going to make his friend uncomfortable like that again. Instead he waited patiently as Ember teasingly rubbed the lips of her pussy against Lucky's cock. She didn't tease for very long, though, before sinking down, taking Lucky into her. Lucky let out a low groan of pleasure as Ember's wetness closed around him. Quick just stared. The sight of the gorgeous alicorn mare, her cock standing erect as she sank down on Lucky, made his own member ache with desire. It was quite possibly the most erotic thing he'd ever seen. When Ember had taken Lucky's entire length and was resting with her rump pressed to his hips, she lifted one hoof and beckoned to Quick.

He needed no second invitation to position himself between both Lucky's and Ember's legs, his muzzle going straight to the warm, hard, pink flesh of Ember's cock. He nuzzled at it, feeling the heat of it against his muzzle. He'd dreamed of doing this so many times, and now those fantasies had become wonderfully real.

Feeling incredibly daring, Quick opened his mouth and licked at Ember's cock. It tasted faintly salty, flavored with something he couldn't really name. That too was wonderful. He lapped at it eagerly, drawing his tongue along it, and felt another thrill of pleasure go through him as he heard Ember moan.

"Okay, time to start rockin'," said Lucky. Ember giggled, then gasped as Lucky grabbed her hips firmly and started bucking up into her. This had the result of making her cock bob up and down against Quick's tongue. He shivered as some of his wildest fantasies flooded into his mind. What would it be like to take that cock into his mouth, to feel it thrusting down his throat?

Time to find out, he thought to himself, and opened his mouth to take the broad head of Ember's cock in. Unfortunately with Lucky thrusting into her, and the cock bobbing up and down with the motion, that ended up being easier said than done. He ended up with the head awkwardly bumping against his lips and even grazing his teeth, which couldn't possibly be comfortable for Ember.

Apparently she was either uncomfortable herself, or noticed Quick's awkwardness, for she tapped one hoof against Lucky's hip. "Hold on for a minute." He stopped thrusting, lying panting beneath her, and apparently not minding the pause. Quick lifted his head a bit, glancing up at Ember. She smiled down at him. "Go on, Quick. Go slowly. We'll start again when you're ready."

Quick gave her a grateful smile and then lowered his head again. This time he was able to easily close his lips over the head of Ember's cock and slide down, taking it slowly into his mouth. It felt amazing. Even better than sucking on Lucky's horn for that brief moment had. He let out a low groan and went further down. He got nearly half of the thick shaft down before having to stop. He would have taken more if he could, but the feel of it at the back of his throat made him nearly gag. So he paused and slid back up until he was only holding the tip of it in his mouth.

He felt Ember's hoof stroking his mane. "How are you doing?" she asked. He wasn't going to pull back now, so he just made a muffled sound of pleasure and slid back down a bit. Ember chuckled softly. "Sounds like you're doing good. Feels like it too. Let's get going again, Lucky, hmm? Slowly at first."

"Yes, ma'am," said Lucky again. Quick couldn't see it, but he could hear the grin in Lucky's voice. He felt it as Lucky started to slowly buck his hips, pushing Ember up, and pushing her cock deeper into his mouth. He kept still, letting the two of them do the moving. It was amazing. Soon, though, Lucky started moving harder and faster. Quick found it a struggle to keep up. As Ember's cock moved faster and more forcefully, Quick found himself gagging and choking. He wanted to keep going, to take even more, but eventually he had to pull back.

He looked up at Ember. She had her wings flared out, her head tipped back, and an expression of blissful concentration on her face. As she noticed Quick's withdrawal she looked down. "After we finish here," she said, panting, "I can take care of you properly." Quick nodded, sitting back. The huge bed had plenty of room for him to move clear of the pair and still sit comfortably. He watched as Lucky pulled Ember down hard onto him, his hooves tight on her hips. She closed her eyes again, pushing down and grinding onto each of Lucky's thrusts. Her tail spilled across his chest, twitching now and again as she moaned with pleasure. Her moans grew louder as Lucky's thrusts grew faster, harder and more frantic. Then Lucky stopped, grunting, holding Ember down hard. She let out a gasping cry. Quick couldn't really see well enough to know for certain, but when they both abruptly relaxed, he knew that Lucky had come.

A moment later Ember let out a long, contented sigh, and climbed off of Lucky. She bent over him, and he reached up and pulled her down to kiss her. She kissed him back, but when he let her go she said, "Thank you for the ride, but I should probably make sure that your friend has some fun too. Is that okay?"

"Sure is," said Lucky, waving a dismissive hoof. His usual grin was a broad smile of satisfaction now as he lay in something of a sticky mess, his eyes closed, his body utterly relaxed. Ember laughed again, a delighted little chuckle, and moved over to sit beside Quick. Quick couldn't help but let his eyes settle on Ember's still-erect cock. She gave him a reassuring smile and nod when he glanced up at her, so he once again bent his head to take it into his mouth.

He reveled in the feeling of it, the taste and texture and heat of it. He sank down on it, taking it as deeply as he could, feeling a further thrill at the moan of pleasure that Ember let out in response. "I am... really close," she panted. "If you don't want a mouthful... you should probably stop soon."

Quick made no move to pull back. He'd fantasized about this for so long, he wanted the entire fantasy, every bit of it. He wasn't entirely sure that was a good idea, but he was going to do it anyway. He rubbed his tongue against the underside of Ember's cock firmly as he moved up and down along it, trying his best to make her come. It wasn't long before he got the result he wanted. She arched back, letting out a soft cry of pleasure as her cock twitched in his mouth. A sudden flood of cum spurted out onto his tongue, the bitter-salt taste unexpected and strange. It filled his mouth more quickly than he had expected, the rush of it making him choke a little bit. Part of him wanted to endure and keep his head down on Ember's cock no matter what, but a second pulse of hot, thick semen forced him to pull his head back, the rest of the pulsing stream hitting him in the muzzle. He swallowed a bit of what remained in his mouth, the bitter taste of it lingering on his tongue.

When it was over, he lay there between Ember's legs, catching his breath, trying to sort out his suddenly confused emotions. Should he be ashamed of having sucked off a cock, even if it was a mare's? Should he feel bad that he hadn't kept his head down and swallowed it all? It hadn't been exactly like his fantasy, he'd thought he would love the taste of it, but he hadn't at all.

He felt Ember's hoof stroking his mane and looked up at her. She has a blissfully satisfied smile on her face. "That was... Mmm."

Her smiled prompted an answering smile from Quick. "Yeah," he said. "I'm kinda a mess though."

Ember giggled. Her horn lit with a green glow and she cleaned the mess from his muzzle. The touch of her magic felt warm and tingling on his fur. "That's how you know you had fun!"

Quick laughed. When Ember was done cleaning him, he sprawled out on the bed. She settled herself between him and Lucky, who still had a blissful grin plastered on his face. He immediately rolled over and cuddled up to Ember, who turned as well, spooning with Lucky, then putting a foreleg over Quick and tucking her head against his shoulder. He stared up at the ceiling, relaxing, his pulse finally beginning to slow.

"Was that what you wanted?" asked Ember.

Quick paused to really think about it before answering. It hadn't been exactly what he had imagined. But it had been good. He'd gotten his fantasy, and he'd enjoyed it. So in the end the only answer he could give was, "Yes, it was."
