The Heart Wants What it Wantsby jl7895ChaptersThe CellistThe SeamstressThe LyristThe CellistVictor took in a deep breath before he got out of his car. He looked at his High School and wondered what everyone else would think. He wasn’t Mr. Popular, but he did have a good number of friends, and almost everyone knew him as one of the friendliest students. He would be lucky if anyone would want to even sit next to him. The past few months have been a complete mistake. But why couldn’t he stop thinking about her? It started when they turned on that stupid Hadron Collider. Victor couldn’t explain the science behind it if he tried. All he really understood about it was that it created a portal between earth and some place called Equestria, a place filled with magical ponies and other mystical creatures. Leaders of both of the worlds met to talk about how to proceed. Once they realized that neither had hostile intentions, they agreed to unite the two worlds. Humans starting living in this magical place and the creatures of that world, specifically ponies, made a living for themselves on earth. Soon, ponies in human society became the norm. Victor started to wonder why they just had to turn that thing on. If they didn’t, then he could be normal for once in his life. He always got some unwanted attention because he was raised by gay dads. If she had just been human, everything would have been fine. He might have been even more popular, but she had to be a pony. Realizing he had to face them sooner or later, Victor grabbed his binder and got out of the car. He made his way to the school. He noticed some people stopping whatever conversation they were having just to look at him. Victor could already hear what they were going to say about him under their breath. “Look, there’s the horse fucker.” “There goes the freak.” “Look what the gays did to him.” Usually, Victor would just shrug these off, but there was something different about this one. Maybe it was because he cared about her more than anyone else, or it could be that gay thing. No one talks about his dads like that. Maybe it was because he felt a little bit of shame towards the whole thing. He did keep it a secret for about three months. They first met when Victor’s best friend, Scarlet, threw one of her famous parties. Her parents were rich, so she was able to get all the best things for her parties. Of course Victor was going to be there to keep up appearances, but also for his friend. He usually had to help set up, but he didn’t mind spending time with Scarlet. She was the only one that never made fun of him for having two dads. Scarlet had apparently made some friends with ponies, as some showed up. Victor thought it was cool that he got the chance to talk with these creatures. He was talking with a cheerleader, hoping to leave with someone’s number, when he first saw her. It was something from a movie, when all other sound fades out and all he could see was her. He had to talk to her and it had to be now. “Hey,” he said as he approached the mare and her friend. “My name’s Victor.” “So, you’re the famous Victor?” The friend said. She was a white unicorn with electric blue mane. “It’s finally nice to put a face to the name. Scarlet won’t shut up about you. If I didn’t know any better, I would say she wants you in the sack.” “Vinyl!” The mare said. She was a grey mare who looked refined. There was a sweetness to her voice, even when she sounded angry. “Behave yourself.” “Lighten up, Tavi. We’re at a party. We can do whatever we feel like, and I feel like dancing.” The friend lost interest in them and made her way to the dance floor. There was a somewhat awkward way ponies dance, but they found a way to make it work around us. “I’m sorry for my friend. She can be a little…rude. My name is Octavia.” They started to talk get to know each other. Victor learned that she was also a high school student and a cellist. There wasn’t much for he could tell her. Victor didn’t take part in extracurricular activities or did anything special. He barely knew what he wanted to do after college. It didn’t matter what they were talking about, as they were mesmerized by each other’s voice. The night ended with a quick kiss and an exchange of numbers. It wasn’t until he was helping clean up after the party that he realized that he kissed a pony. He waited three days before he called Octavia. He wasn’t sure if he was following the unwritten rule or if he was hesitant about asking a pony out on a date. He was happy when she picked up the phone and he asked her a date. She gladly accepted. He didn’t notice it at first, but no one noticed that he was on a date with a pony, or at least no one form his school noticed he was on a date. He wanted to keep it a secret as long as he could, out of fear of what society would think of him. All he really did was try to avoid the topic all together. They were discovered when he took her to a baseball game and they showed them on the kiss-cam. Without thinking, he kissed her in front of everyone. Everything seemed to be alright, besides the freshmen being freshmen and making bad jokes about him. It was almost as if he actually was dating a human and nothing was wrong. He had made it to lunch and no one really seemed bothered by the fact that he was dating a horse. No one said anything until lunch. “Wow,” Scarlet said. “What was that?” “I’ve been seeing Octavia for a while now.” “How long was a while?” “Three months.” “Three mo…three months? So, you two hooked up at my party?” “We didn’t ‘hook up’. We just barley kissed.” “Good, because I did not want to hear about horse sex. Speaking of which, how would it work? I mean, if you had children would they be…” “I don’t know and I don’t want to know. Relationships don’t have to be about sex.” “Welcome to America.” The topic didn’t come up during their conversation, but something stuck with Victor, Where was this whole thing with Octavia going. Is he going to marry her? And what would happen if they did want children. He was distracted for the rest of the day. Time seemed to just fly by and before he knew it, the final bell rang. Victor got to his car as fast as he could in hopes of beating the traffic. He was the first person in the parking lot, but he just waited in his car. He took in a deep breath and checked his phone. He read a text he got from one of his dads the night of the ball game. Saw the game. Don’t know if this is appropriate, but I’m sure if she were human, she would be the sexiest girl out there. I’m sure she’s the sexiest pony out there too. Love ya. He was glad that his dads were so supportive of this whole thing. He phone started to ring. Octavia was calling, but the question was why. It didn’t matter. Victor immediately answered the phone. “Hi, Tavi.” “Hey. Look Victor, there’s something I need to tell you.” “Before you say anything, I need to say something. I don’t care what people are going to say. I want to be with you because I like spending time with you. You make me want to be a better person. I’m sorry, you wanted to say something.” “I just wanted to say, I love you. I know we’ve only been dating for three months and all my friends begged me not to do it, but I love you. I’m sorry, I’m just being stupid. I should have never called you.” “It’s alright, Octavia. I love you too.” And that’s why he felt weird, He had never felt this way about anyone before. He was in love and there was nothing that was going to keep him from Octavia. “So, do you want to see a movie tonight?” “I would love to.” “I’ll pick you up tonight. We’ll have dinner right before. I love you, Octavia.” “I love you too. I’ll see you tonight.” By the time he hung up the phone, the parking lot was filled with students trying to get home. It was at least a ten, fifteen minute wait to just get out of the parking lot. Victor didn’t care, he was in love and he had a date tonight. Author's Note Just so you know, I came up with this thing at 1AM and wrote it in about 2 hours. I hope you enjoyed it because I am so tired right now. I couldn't sleep until I got this out. The SeamstressToday was the day. Adam Noel was finally going to tell her how he feels. He was going to bare his heart to Rarity and she was going to love him for it. He was dreaming about this since the day they first met. Adam always has a fashion sense that he couldn’t explain. He could easily look at fabrics and different accessories and put something together that should be on the cover of GQ. Unfortunately, he couldn’t always stop himself from judging what other people would wear. This would of course cause him to be the victim of bullying. A day didn’t go by without him hearing the word “queer” or “fag”. He was straight and he knew it as his friend described how he knew he was gay. “You just know. It’s the same feeling you get when you look at a girl, but with men.” When high school ended, Adam tried starting to get into the fashion world. He was unsuccessful at first. It started as a finical problem. He didn’t have the money he needed to buy a sewing machine, let alone the materials he needed to start making clothes. He tried selling his designs to local boutiques, but they either decided to go with another designer or didn’t have the money to buy his design. It seemed like there was no real point in perusing dream. Every time he thought he got his foot in the door, he would get kicked out. He was about to give up, until they turned on the Hadron Collider. At first he didn’t think much of it. This “Equestria” thing was just another place to shut him down. He wasn’t interested in it until he was told they didn’t care who you are. After some debate, Adam decided to go to Equestria and try to make a living for himself. From what he gathered, Manehatten was the fashion capital of that world. If it was anything like New York in his world, then the city would chew him up and spit him out. Adam started asking around and he to apparently try The Carrousel Boutique in a place called Ponyville. He quickly found an apartment in Ponyville and tried to find the boutique. Adam found the building easily, but it was one of the more unique buildings in the city. Something felt right about this one. Maybe it was how bright everything was or his optimism, but he knew this was the one. “Welcome to The Carrousel Boutique,” the white unicorn said with her eyes closed, “where everything is chic, unique, and magnifique.” There was something about her that made Adam shiver. At first it was just her voice. He found it warm and inviting. Then he saw her. He found her beautiful, which is a world he didn’t throw around. To him, beautiful was something reserved for someone that he loved. But that wasn’t right. He was attracted to human females. She probably just reminded him of a girl he had a crush on in high school. “Oh, I’m sorry,” the mare said when she opened her eyes, “I don’t have anything for human yet. Give me a month or two. If you need something now, I can give you the address for another boutique. I’m sure she can something together in about a week.” “It’s not that,” Adam said, “I was hoping I could sell you some designs.” He pulled out his sketch book. The mare took the book with her magic and put on a pair of red glasses, which made her even more beautiful. She started to intensely study the book, making sure to look over every detail of every design. Adam started to get nervous the more she looked over the book. Maybe this wasn’t going to be as easy as he thought. “These designs…” she said as she gave Adam’s book back to him, “are amazing. Unfortunately, I don’t have time to make them. I just got a big order from Canterlot. I don’t even know if I can even fill the order.” “Do you need any help?” Adam said. “You sow?” “I made this.” Adam started to show off the clothes he was wearing. The mare started to study him. “My word, darling,” she said, “You’re a gift from Celestia.” She walked over to a book behind a counter and started mumbling to herself. “Perfect! How would you like to work here? You’ll have full access to all of my machines and fabrics.” “I would love to.” “Perfect, when can you start?” “Right now, if you really need me to.” “You are a life saver, darling. Now, if we’re going to work together, introductions are in order. My name is Rarity.” “Adam,” he said as he stuck out his hand for a handshake. “Adam Noel.” “Um…” Rarity said. Just then, Adam realized that she didn’t have any hands. “Sorry, still new here,” Adam retracted his hand and started to blush a bit. Rarity giggled when she noticed the blush, which made her even more beautiful. The two of them worked together for the next few years. With Adam’s help, Rarity was able to fill the order in about a week. With the spare time, the two of them worked on a few of Adam’s designs. The two of them seemed to work perfectly together and they were able to be the first place to sell human clothing. The more the two worked together, the more they got to know each other. Adam told her about his past and what it was like to live on Earth. He told her about how he always had an eye for fashion and how he always made his own clothes. He even showed her his prom pictures, mainly to show off the clothes he made for him and his date. In return, Rarity informed him about life in Equestria and all about her. She told him her cutie make story and how to properly act in this world. Something strange started to happen with Adam. The more the more they talked, the more beautiful he found her. But that was impossible. He was attracted to female humans. Then he remembered what his friend told him. “You just know.” Those three words were all he needed to know. He had that feeling in his gut that said he was in love. Adam wasn’t one to hide his feelings. He was going to tell Rarity ASAP. That morning, he bought flowers on his way to work. Roses and a few Lavenders, her favorites. He had practiced what he was going to say the night before, but he knew that he was more than likely going to wing it. Adam walked through the front door of the boutique with a smile on his face. That smile faded when he saw Rarity tend to another set of flowers in a vase. “Aren’t they lovely, Adam?” She said without turning her head. Adam had realized that she wouldn’t take her eyes off of whatever was working on. He took advantage of this usually to set up a surprise for her. This time, however, he took this time to hide his flowers. “Where did you get them?” “Spike dropped them off this morning.” “Do you have a thing for him?” “No,” Rarity said with a sigh, “It would like having feelings for a friend’s little brother. I have to tell sometime, but I’m afraid that he’s just too young.” Rarity turned to Adam and noticed he had something behind his back. That was another thing Adam learned about her. She has an unmatched eye for detail. “What do you have behind your back?” she asked. Adam decided it was now or never and showed Rarity the flowers. She was a little shocked when she saw them. “Rarity, we’ve spent the past few years together and I’ve loved every moment of it. The more time I’ve spent with you, the more beautiful I’ve found you, and I only say that when I’m…I’m…in love. Rarity, I love you.” Rarity looked shocked and at a loss of words. There was a silence between them and Adam was starting to get nervous. “Adam,” Rarity said breaking the short lived silence, “I would be lying if I said that I didn’t feel the same about you. We see eye-to-eye on everything and we work so well together. I have thought about us before, but you’re a human and I’m a pony. What will everyone think of us? It’s defiantly not the normal, at least not yet.” “I’m going to tell you something that a friend told me,” Adam got down on his knees in front of him, putting the flowers next to the vase. “‘You just know’. There are times in your life where you just know something is right. I know, deep in my heart, that we belong together. Please, tell me that you at least feel something close to what I feel.” “I…I…” Rarity was at a loss for words again. She didn’t know what to say, but she did know what she wanted to do. She quickly pushed her lips against Adam’s. He didn’t pull away and they stayed like that for a little while. “I’m sorry, that wasn’t ladylike of me.” “No, it was perfect.” Author's Note There is something wrong with me because I keep coming up with these at 1 in the morning and then spend the next 2-3 hours working on them. Screw it, I'm having fun writing them. I hope you enjoy this and if you want to see any pony be shipped with a human, feel free to tell me. I am always up for suggestion. The Lyrist“One more time,” Lyra said as she raised her head off of Greg’s lap. “That’s the third time, Lyra,” he said holding his lyre. It was one of his most prized positions. It was the last thing he made with his dad before a drunk driver plowed into their car. Greg was lucky enough to survive and get away with a few months in a leg cast, but his father wasn’t so lucky. “I know, but I just love it so much. Please Greg. For me.” She looked at him with her big golden eyes. There was absolutely no way that he would be able to resist. “Okay, for you.” Greg started to play Lyra’s favorite song on her favorite instrument. The second she heard it, she smiled and laid her head back down on Greg’s lap. It was a slow song, but incredibly peaceful. It made all of her fears, anxieties, and doubts just completely fade away. For that long five minutes, she was at peace with the universe. “I love you,” She said. Suddenly, the music stopped and her eyes shot open. Lyra suddenly realized what she said. While they have been dating for a while, it was the first time either of them had said those three words. Lyra first met Greg a while after the humans turned on the Hadron Collider and the portal between their world and her’s was torn open. At first, she was amazed by these human things. Like most ponies, she saw them as these things that had no magic or wings and walked on their hind legs. Lyra, however, was more amazed by the things on the end of their hooves. Although she didn’t see her first human until a about six months after humans started to move into Equestria. They looked completely strange and couldn’t really find a reason for them. Granted, she was a unicorn and could just use her magic for everything and most things in Equestria could be operated by hoof. She has seen them on Princess Twilight’s assistant, but those were sharpened while the humans were rounded. He did use them to write, but he still didn’t have the best penmanship. They seem so bazar and useless. “I just don’t get them,” Lyra said to her friends Octavia, who was visiting from the human world, and Bon Bon. “They’re so useless.” “Are you still on this?” Bon Bon asked with an annoyed tone in her voice. “She’s been talking about the human’s fingers all day.” “They don’t make sense. We can use everything just fine without them, but they seem to need them.” “Lyra, for the last time: Stop obsessing over this.” “I can’t,” “Don’t be so hard on her, Bon Bon,” Octavia said. “Look, Vinyl is taking me to a party tomorrow night. Why don’t you come with us?” “Really? I get to go to the human world?” “Why do you do this to me?” Bon Bon said to the sky. “You’re over reacting,” Octavia said. “Really, because she’s going to tell me the same story like twenty different times.” Lyra, Octavia, and Vinyl went through the portal and went to the party. Lyra was nervous at first. Not only was this her first time being the human world, but it was a party thrown by a human. The three of them were probably going to stick out like an alicorn. She did forget, however, that the two societies had basically merged. The three ponies arrived at the party to find both ponies and humans there. She did know some of the ponies, but she felt more comfortable around Octavia. She would leave her friends side for the first half of the party. Then she heard something. She heard something that was completely beautiful and charming. She couldn’t help but to find out where it was coming from. Lyra knew the sound, of course. It was the sound of her favorite instrument playing one of her songs. How did one of her songs get here? Lyra went looking for the lyre and its player. She started searching the house for the magical source, although it was hard due to the loud music playing. Lyra, however, had a special talent for finding the source of any music. She started in the backyard, and then the living room, and then the garage. She realized that it was coming from upstairs. She finally found the source coming from a bed room. Using her magic, Lyra opened the door as quietly as she could. Inside was a boy playing her song with her favorite instrument. The boy was quickly realized that something was watching him. He looked over at the door and saw an aquamarine unicorn watching him. He started to blush and got up to close the door. “Please don’t stop,” Lyra said before he could close the door. “That was beautiful. Where did you get that song?” “My sister got it for me when she went to Equestria with some friends. Please go back to the party. I want to keep playing and I can’t play in front of other people, or in your case, ponies.” “But I wrote that.” “What?” “That’s my song. I wrote it a while ago. Watch, I’ll prove it.” Lyra used her magic to take the lyre from the boy and started playing the song. Everything was perfect, down to the final note. He was amazed and fascinated by this pony. He knew that some of the ponies from Equestria had some unique talents, but he never thought that he would ever meet anything that could play the lyre like him. “Wow,” he said when Lyra finished. “That was incredible, what’s your name.” “Lyra Heartstrings, and you are so much better, Mr….” “Greg. Greg Cooper.” Greg let Lyra into the room and the two of them started to talk. Greg talked about his past and even talked about his dad. Greg never liked to talk about his dad and his tragic fate, not even with his own mother. He believed that his memories were between him and his dad and sharing them no longer makes it theirs. But there was something about Lyra that made him want to open up. It was like she was a lyre that was playing a hypnotic song. Lyra was also in a trance. Just knowing that there was someone else out there who loves everything she loves. She finally met someone who she can relate to on every level. In fact she almost forgot why she came to the human world in the first place. “Before I forget,” she said after talking about Bon Bon, “why do you have fingers. They seem so useless.” “I guess you have to know to understand. But we have them because some people believe humans are a more advanced form of monkeys. They have them, so we have them. But I wouldn’t trade these things in for anything.” “What if you could learn magic? You wouldn’t even need your fingers for anything.” “Nope. Without my fingers, I wouldn’t be able to feel my music.” “What do you mean?” “When I’m playing my lyre, I can feel the notes and the sound and everything and it’s all because of my fingers. Without them, I don’t think I could be as close to my lyre as I am.” Just then, Lyra realized why they had fingers and why Octavia loved the cello so much. They could feel the music coursing through their body, a sensation she was deprived of due to her magic. It was an interesting concept and she wanted to learn more. She was going to ask another question, but then the sound of a hoof hitting the door interrupted the two. “Are you in there Lyra?” Octavia said from the other side of the door. “We’re leaving.” Lyra left with her friends, but she promised to return. She obviously had some feelings for Greg, curiosity bring one of them, and she wasn’t going to deny herself a chance to learn more. She made the decision to move to the human world with Octavia and would get to know Greg better. It was hard for her at first because it meant leaving behind her best friend, Bon Bon. She realized that it was something she had to do for herself. Plus with the advancements made with the portal, she could see Bon Bon whenever she wanted. The two seemed inseparable. Lyra would spend most of her time listening to Greg play or playing for him. Greg seemed happier than ever and would always seem happier whenever he was with Lyra. He even started writing his own music for her, which she enjoyed more than her own music. This confirmed her feelings for Greg and forced her to vocalize these feelings. “I’m so sorry,” Lyra said immediately. “It’s just these past few months have been the best of my life and that’s all because of you. I don’t want you to say it back to me unless you want to, so don’t feel pressured to.” “Lyra,” he said with a bit of a chuckle, “it’s fine. I love you too. You have brought out the best of me and I can’t think you enough.” The two smiled at each other and Lyra laid her head back down on his lap. “Let me show you how to use your hooves to play,” Greg said. He repositioned Lyra so she was comfortable while he took a hoof and his lyre nearby. He placed the hoof on one of the strings and plucked it. Lyra felt the sensation that he talked about and enjoyed every moment of it. Author's Note This one took three days to write. And too keep with the other stories, I only wrote it at 1AM. I know at least two of you wanted to see this so here it is. Just goes to show, sometimes if you ask you will reverie. If you have any pony you want to get see shipped with a human with a random name, then feel free to tell me. I've also been playing around with a few ideas. First, I've been trying to come up with something for Luna and Pinkie and those are going pretty well, Also, what do you think about a same sex couple? So if you want to see anypony with a special stipulation, then leave it below. One rule: Married couples are off limits. That means no secrets between Cadence and Shining Armor, like one of my friends suggested (they know who they are). I hope you enjoyed this and good night.

Realizing he had to face them sooner or later, Victor grabbed his binder and got out of the car. He made his way to the school. He noticed some people stopping whatever conversation they were having just to look at him. Victor could already hear what they were going to say about him under their breath. “Look, there’s the horse fucker.” “There goes the freak.” “Look what the gays did to him.” Usually, Victor would just shrug these off, but there was something different about this one. Maybe it was because he cared about her more than anyone else, or it could be that gay thing. No one talks about his dads like that.

She was a white unicorn with electric blue mane. “It’s finally nice to put a face to the name. Scarlet won’t shut up about you. If I didn’t know any better, I would say she wants you in the sack.” “Vinyl!” The mare said. She was a grey mare who looked refined. There was a sweetness to her voice, even when she sounded angry. “Behave yourself.” “Lighten up, Tavi. We’re at a party. We can do whatever we feel like, and I feel like dancing.” The friend lost interest in them and made her way to the dance floor. There was a somewhat awkward way ponies dance, but they found a way to make it work around us. “I’m sorry for my friend. She can be a little…rude. My name is Octavia.” They started to talk get to know each other. Victor learned that she was also a high school student and a cellist. There wasn’t much for he could tell her.

He had made it to lunch and no one really seemed bothered by the fact that he was dating a horse. No one said anything until lunch. “Wow,” Scarlet said. “What was that?” “I’ve been seeing Octavia for a while now.” “How long was a while?” “Three months.” “Three mo…three months? So, you two hooked up at my party?” “We didn’t ‘hook up’. We just barley kissed.” “Good, because I did not want to hear about horse sex. Speaking of which, how would it work? I mean, if you had children would they be…” “I don’t know and I don’t want to know. Relationships don’t have to be about sex.” “Welcome to America.” The topic didn’t come up during their conversation, but something stuck with Victor, Where was this whole thing with Octavia going. Is he going to marry her? And what would happen if they did want children. He was distracted for the rest of the day. Time seemed to just fly by and before he knew it, the final bell rang. Victor got to his car as fast as he could in hopes of beating the traffic. He was the first person in the parking lot, but he just waited in his car. He took in a deep breath and checked his phone. He read a text he got from one of his dads the night of the ball game. Saw the game. Don’t know if this is appropriate, but I’m sure if she were human, she would be the sexiest girl out there. I’m sure she’s the sexiest pony out there too. Love ya. He was glad that his dads were so supportive of this whole thing. He phone started to ring. Octavia was calling, but the question was why. It didn’t matter. Victor immediately answered the phone. “Hi, Tavi.” “Hey. Look Victor, there’s something I need to tell you.” “Before you say anything, I need to say something. I don’t care what people are going to say. I want to be with you because I like spending time with you. You make me want to be a better person. I’m sorry, you wanted to say something.” “I just wanted to say, I love you. I know we’ve only been dating for three months and all my friends begged me not to do it, but I love you. I’m sorry, I’m just being stupid. I should have never called you.” “It’s alright, Octavia. I love you too.” And that’s why he felt weird, He had never felt this way about anyone before. He was in love and there was nothing that was going to keep him from Octavia. “So, do you want to see a movie tonight?” “I would love to.” “I’ll pick you up tonight. We’ll have dinner right before. I love you, Octavia.” “I love you too. I’ll see you tonight.” By the time he hung up the phone, the parking lot was filled with students trying to get home. It was at least a ten, fifteen minute wait to just get out of the parking lot. Victor didn’t care, he was in love and he had a date tonight. Author's Note Just so you know, I came up with this thing at 1AM and wrote it in about 2 hours. I hope you enjoyed it because I am so tired right now. I couldn't sleep until I got this out.
The SeamstressToday was the day. Adam Noel was finally going to tell her how he feels. He was going to bare his heart to Rarity and she was going to love him for it. He was dreaming about this since the day they first met. Adam always has a fashion sense that he couldn’t explain. He could easily look at fabrics and different accessories and put something together that should be on the cover of GQ. Unfortunately, he couldn’t always stop himself from judging what other people would wear. This would of course cause him to be the victim of bullying. A day didn’t go by without him hearing the word “queer” or “fag”. He was straight and he knew it as his friend described how he knew he was gay. “You just know. It’s the same feeling you get when you look at a girl, but with men.” When high school ended, Adam tried starting to get into the fashion world. He was unsuccessful at first. It started as a finical problem. He didn’t have the money he needed to buy a sewing machine, let alone the materials he needed to start making clothes. He tried selling his designs to local boutiques, but they either decided to go with another designer or didn’t have the money to buy his design. It seemed like there was no real point in perusing dream. Every time he thought he got his foot in the door, he would get kicked out. He was about to give up, until they turned on the Hadron Collider. At first he didn’t think much of it. This “Equestria” thing was just another place to shut him down. He wasn’t interested in it until he was told they didn’t care who you are. After some debate, Adam decided to go to Equestria and try to make a living for himself. From what he gathered, Manehatten was the fashion capital of that world. If it was anything like New York in his world, then the city would chew him up and spit him out. Adam started asking around and he to apparently try The Carrousel Boutique in a place called Ponyville. He quickly found an apartment in Ponyville and tried to find the boutique. Adam found the building easily, but it was one of the more unique buildings in the city. Something felt right about this one. Maybe it was how bright everything was or his optimism, but he knew this was the one. “Welcome to The Carrousel Boutique,” the white unicorn said with her eyes closed, “where everything is chic, unique, and magnifique.” There was something about her that made Adam shiver. At first it was just her voice. He found it warm and inviting. Then he saw her. He found her beautiful, which is a world he didn’t throw around. To him, beautiful was something reserved for someone that he loved. But that wasn’t right. He was attracted to human females. She probably just reminded him of a girl he had a crush on in high school. “Oh, I’m sorry,” the mare said when she opened her eyes, “I don’t have anything for human yet. Give me a month or two. If you need something now, I can give you the address for another boutique. I’m sure she can something together in about a week.” “It’s not that,” Adam said, “I was hoping I could sell you some designs.” He pulled out his sketch book. The mare took the book with her magic and put on a pair of red glasses, which made her even more beautiful. She started to intensely study the book, making sure to look over every detail of every design. Adam started to get nervous the more she looked over the book. Maybe this wasn’t going to be as easy as he thought. “These designs…” she said as she gave Adam’s book back to him, “are amazing. Unfortunately, I don’t have time to make them. I just got a big order from Canterlot. I don’t even know if I can even fill the order.” “Do you need any help?” Adam said. “You sow?” “I made this.” Adam started to show off the clothes he was wearing. The mare started to study him. “My word, darling,” she said, “You’re a gift from Celestia.” She walked over to a book behind a counter and started mumbling to herself. “Perfect! How would you like to work here? You’ll have full access to all of my machines and fabrics.” “I would love to.” “Perfect, when can you start?” “Right now, if you really need me to.” “You are a life saver, darling. Now, if we’re going to work together, introductions are in order. My name is Rarity.” “Adam,” he said as he stuck out his hand for a handshake. “Adam Noel.” “Um…” Rarity said. Just then, Adam realized that she didn’t have any hands. “Sorry, still new here,” Adam retracted his hand and started to blush a bit. Rarity giggled when she noticed the blush, which made her even more beautiful. The two of them worked together for the next few years. With Adam’s help, Rarity was able to fill the order in about a week. With the spare time, the two of them worked on a few of Adam’s designs. The two of them seemed to work perfectly together and they were able to be the first place to sell human clothing. The more the two worked together, the more they got to know each other. Adam told her about his past and what it was like to live on Earth. He told her about how he always had an eye for fashion and how he always made his own clothes. He even showed her his prom pictures, mainly to show off the clothes he made for him and his date. In return, Rarity informed him about life in Equestria and all about her. She told him her cutie make story and how to properly act in this world. Something strange started to happen with Adam. The more the more they talked, the more beautiful he found her. But that was impossible. He was attracted to female humans. Then he remembered what his friend told him. “You just know.” Those three words were all he needed to know. He had that feeling in his gut that said he was in love. Adam wasn’t one to hide his feelings. He was going to tell Rarity ASAP. That morning, he bought flowers on his way to work. Roses and a few Lavenders, her favorites. He had practiced what he was going to say the night before, but he knew that he was more than likely going to wing it. Adam walked through the front door of the boutique with a smile on his face. That smile faded when he saw Rarity tend to another set of flowers in a vase. “Aren’t they lovely, Adam?” She said without turning her head. Adam had realized that she wouldn’t take her eyes off of whatever was working on. He took advantage of this usually to set up a surprise for her. This time, however, he took this time to hide his flowers. “Where did you get them?” “Spike dropped them off this morning.” “Do you have a thing for him?” “No,” Rarity said with a sigh, “It would like having feelings for a friend’s little brother. I have to tell sometime, but I’m afraid that he’s just too young.” Rarity turned to Adam and noticed he had something behind his back. That was another thing Adam learned about her. She has an unmatched eye for detail. “What do you have behind your back?” she asked. Adam decided it was now or never and showed Rarity the flowers. She was a little shocked when she saw them. “Rarity, we’ve spent the past few years together and I’ve loved every moment of it. The more time I’ve spent with you, the more beautiful I’ve found you, and I only say that when I’m…I’m…in love. Rarity, I love you.” Rarity looked shocked and at a loss of words. There was a silence between them and Adam was starting to get nervous. “Adam,” Rarity said breaking the short lived silence, “I would be lying if I said that I didn’t feel the same about you. We see eye-to-eye on everything and we work so well together. I have thought about us before, but you’re a human and I’m a pony. What will everyone think of us? It’s defiantly not the normal, at least not yet.” “I’m going to tell you something that a friend told me,” Adam got down on his knees in front of him, putting the flowers next to the vase. “‘You just know’. There are times in your life where you just know something is right. I know, deep in my heart, that we belong together. Please, tell me that you at least feel something close to what I feel.” “I…I…” Rarity was at a loss for words again. She didn’t know what to say, but she did know what she wanted to do. She quickly pushed her lips against Adam’s. He didn’t pull away and they stayed like that for a little while. “I’m sorry, that wasn’t ladylike of me.” “No, it was perfect.” Author's Note There is something wrong with me because I keep coming up with these at 1 in the morning and then spend the next 2-3 hours working on them. Screw it, I'm having fun writing them. I hope you enjoy this and if you want to see any pony be shipped with a human, feel free to tell me. I am always up for suggestion.
The Lyrist“One more time,” Lyra said as she raised her head off of Greg’s lap. “That’s the third time, Lyra,” he said holding his lyre. It was one of his most prized positions. It was the last thing he made with his dad before a drunk driver plowed into their car. Greg was lucky enough to survive and get away with a few months in a leg cast, but his father wasn’t so lucky. “I know, but I just love it so much. Please Greg. For me.” She looked at him with her big golden eyes. There was absolutely no way that he would be able to resist. “Okay, for you.” Greg started to play Lyra’s favorite song on her favorite instrument. The second she heard it, she smiled and laid her head back down on Greg’s lap. It was a slow song, but incredibly peaceful. It made all of her fears, anxieties, and doubts just completely fade away. For that long five minutes, she was at peace with the universe. “I love you,” She said. Suddenly, the music stopped and her eyes shot open. Lyra suddenly realized what she said. While they have been dating for a while, it was the first time either of them had said those three words. Lyra first met Greg a while after the humans turned on the Hadron Collider and the portal between their world and her’s was torn open. At first, she was amazed by these human things. Like most ponies, she saw them as these things that had no magic or wings and walked on their hind legs. Lyra, however, was more amazed by the things on the end of their hooves. Although she didn’t see her first human until a about six months after humans started to move into Equestria. They looked completely strange and couldn’t really find a reason for them. Granted, she was a unicorn and could just use her magic for everything and most things in Equestria could be operated by hoof. She has seen them on Princess Twilight’s assistant, but those were sharpened while the humans were rounded. He did use them to write, but he still didn’t have the best penmanship. They seem so bazar and useless. “I just don’t get them,” Lyra said to her friends Octavia, who was visiting from the human world, and Bon Bon. “They’re so useless.” “Are you still on this?” Bon Bon asked with an annoyed tone in her voice. “She’s been talking about the human’s fingers all day.” “They don’t make sense. We can use everything just fine without them, but they seem to need them.” “Lyra, for the last time: Stop obsessing over this.” “I can’t,” “Don’t be so hard on her, Bon Bon,” Octavia said. “Look, Vinyl is taking me to a party tomorrow night. Why don’t you come with us?” “Really? I get to go to the human world?” “Why do you do this to me?” Bon Bon said to the sky. “You’re over reacting,” Octavia said. “Really, because she’s going to tell me the same story like twenty different times.” Lyra, Octavia, and Vinyl went through the portal and went to the party. Lyra was nervous at first. Not only was this her first time being the human world, but it was a party thrown by a human. The three of them were probably going to stick out like an alicorn. She did forget, however, that the two societies had basically merged. The three ponies arrived at the party to find both ponies and humans there. She did know some of the ponies, but she felt more comfortable around Octavia. She would leave her friends side for the first half of the party. Then she heard something. She heard something that was completely beautiful and charming. She couldn’t help but to find out where it was coming from. Lyra knew the sound, of course. It was the sound of her favorite instrument playing one of her songs. How did one of her songs get here? Lyra went looking for the lyre and its player. She started searching the house for the magical source, although it was hard due to the loud music playing. Lyra, however, had a special talent for finding the source of any music. She started in the backyard, and then the living room, and then the garage. She realized that it was coming from upstairs. She finally found the source coming from a bed room. Using her magic, Lyra opened the door as quietly as she could. Inside was a boy playing her song with her favorite instrument. The boy was quickly realized that something was watching him. He looked over at the door and saw an aquamarine unicorn watching him. He started to blush and got up to close the door. “Please don’t stop,” Lyra said before he could close the door. “That was beautiful. Where did you get that song?” “My sister got it for me when she went to Equestria with some friends. Please go back to the party. I want to keep playing and I can’t play in front of other people, or in your case, ponies.” “But I wrote that.” “What?” “That’s my song. I wrote it a while ago. Watch, I’ll prove it.” Lyra used her magic to take the lyre from the boy and started playing the song. Everything was perfect, down to the final note. He was amazed and fascinated by this pony. He knew that some of the ponies from Equestria had some unique talents, but he never thought that he would ever meet anything that could play the lyre like him. “Wow,” he said when Lyra finished. “That was incredible, what’s your name.” “Lyra Heartstrings, and you are so much better, Mr….” “Greg. Greg Cooper.” Greg let Lyra into the room and the two of them started to talk. Greg talked about his past and even talked about his dad. Greg never liked to talk about his dad and his tragic fate, not even with his own mother. He believed that his memories were between him and his dad and sharing them no longer makes it theirs. But there was something about Lyra that made him want to open up. It was like she was a lyre that was playing a hypnotic song. Lyra was also in a trance. Just knowing that there was someone else out there who loves everything she loves. She finally met someone who she can relate to on every level. In fact she almost forgot why she came to the human world in the first place. “Before I forget,” she said after talking about Bon Bon, “why do you have fingers. They seem so useless.” “I guess you have to know to understand. But we have them because some people believe humans are a more advanced form of monkeys. They have them, so we have them. But I wouldn’t trade these things in for anything.” “What if you could learn magic? You wouldn’t even need your fingers for anything.” “Nope. Without my fingers, I wouldn’t be able to feel my music.” “What do you mean?” “When I’m playing my lyre, I can feel the notes and the sound and everything and it’s all because of my fingers. Without them, I don’t think I could be as close to my lyre as I am.” Just then, Lyra realized why they had fingers and why Octavia loved the cello so much. They could feel the music coursing through their body, a sensation she was deprived of due to her magic. It was an interesting concept and she wanted to learn more. She was going to ask another question, but then the sound of a hoof hitting the door interrupted the two. “Are you in there Lyra?” Octavia said from the other side of the door. “We’re leaving.” Lyra left with her friends, but she promised to return. She obviously had some feelings for Greg, curiosity bring one of them, and she wasn’t going to deny herself a chance to learn more. She made the decision to move to the human world with Octavia and would get to know Greg better. It was hard for her at first because it meant leaving behind her best friend, Bon Bon. She realized that it was something she had to do for herself. Plus with the advancements made with the portal, she could see Bon Bon whenever she wanted. The two seemed inseparable. Lyra would spend most of her time listening to Greg play or playing for him. Greg seemed happier than ever and would always seem happier whenever he was with Lyra. He even started writing his own music for her, which she enjoyed more than her own music. This confirmed her feelings for Greg and forced her to vocalize these feelings. “I’m so sorry,” Lyra said immediately. “It’s just these past few months have been the best of my life and that’s all because of you. I don’t want you to say it back to me unless you want to, so don’t feel pressured to.” “Lyra,” he said with a bit of a chuckle, “it’s fine. I love you too. You have brought out the best of me and I can’t think you enough.” The two smiled at each other and Lyra laid her head back down on his lap. “Let me show you how to use your hooves to play,” Greg said. He repositioned Lyra so she was comfortable while he took a hoof and his lyre nearby. He placed the hoof on one of the strings and plucked it. Lyra felt the sensation that he talked about and enjoyed every moment of it. Author's Note This one took three days to write. And too keep with the other stories, I only wrote it at 1AM. I know at least two of you wanted to see this so here it is. Just goes to show, sometimes if you ask you will reverie. If you have any pony you want to get see shipped with a human with a random name, then feel free to tell me. I've also been playing around with a few ideas. First, I've been trying to come up with something for Luna and Pinkie and those are going pretty well, Also, what do you think about a same sex couple? So if you want to see anypony with a special stipulation, then leave it below. One rule: Married couples are off limits. That means no secrets between Cadence and Shining Armor, like one of my friends suggested (they know who they are). I hope you enjoyed this and good night.
