Reading and taking notes on various spells and incantations was starting become a little tiresome for Twilight. The lavender pony sighed as she leaned forward in her seat and placed an elbow on her table. One of her hoofed fingers tapped at the parchment before her, half-scribbled with notes, while she stayed silent in thought. She was stumped. The alicorn princess hadn't even managed to make much of a dent in understanding the properties of the spell she was learning.
A glance to the clock and her violet eyes rolled in her head. Why was she staying up this late to find out a means of turning sand into stone? Or, was it stone into sand? Her grumble was audible as she sulked in her seat and tucked her wings to her back. It was fun and interesting to figure out spells and more, but when they weren't making sense, some ended up being way more trouble than they were worth. Like, the scroll she had found to weld books together. That one was pointless, yet it took two weeks to get it down properly.
Her horn gave off its faint glow as the quill lit up with it and began dancing over the paper once again. Those fingers rubbed at her temples as she breathed in slowly while she made a few more small notes. The quill lifted and dropped into the ink bottle before she groaned and stood up. She needed to get out of this place. Being princess was mostly boring, even if she had her own castle. The thought of her old library made her lower her ears while she reminisced on her home.
“Twi?” her orange coated friend called to her. “You doin' okay, sugar cube?”
Twilight stopped and looked over to the door, giving a faint smile. Her hand waved as she told Applejack it was nothing. The country mare gave a light shrug and mentioned loads of Pinkie's new treat was available for the moment. At least, until the bubbly girl decided to have several more helpings. Twilight smiled and declined as she headed out and through the spacious building until finally out the front.
As nice as it was, it still felt empty. Even with her friends there. Many of her precious memories had been burned away when Tirek attacked. It would take a while to rebuild what she had and to make new memories but those would come in time. Still, it was a big change for her and she hadn't grown used to the sudden move and all.
A trip to the Canterlot archive would probably be a good distraction now, even if it was stark cold. A nice way to let her mind wander off in the vast books and spells. Maybe a closer look into Starswirl's section would bring up something useful as well. There was a bit of a train ride ahead, considering she didn't trust trying to teleport so far away. She also didn't really like the idea of flying that kind of distance again.
Winter in Ponyville was always lovely. Calm and soothing with the brisk cold from winds. She enjoyed the feeling even if it made her shiver and hug her arms a bit tightly. Being bundled up in a winter coat and sweater still didn't help when the icy winds stung her cheeks. Of course, the cold also seemed make her rush to the station a lot faster than usual.
Ponies of all types were bundled up and looking for the train or leaving the area when she came to the station. Her wings stayed against her as she rubbed her hands together and watched her breath escape into the cold air a few times, doing her best to stay warm. It was probably a good several minutes before she saw the train coming down the tracks and thanked Celestia she had chosen a good time to head out. She would have been waiting her for another hour or two if she didn't come by luck with the timing.
Within moments, the alicorn pony was on board and huddled against the corner of a seat to makes sure she got warm. A few greetings here and here but nothing too major. She was thankful for that, not quite enjoying the princess fame when others noticed her. At least now she just had to wait until it reached Canterlot. A tiny nap sounded good about now while she let the warmth of the train car slowly rise.
-
The train lurched to a stop a bit heavily but it was the sound that stirred the pink-stripe maned pony. Her eyes adjusted to the surroundings for a minutes until she got up and headed out. Once again, the freezing wind had her clutching her winter coat a bit tightly as she headed off towards the Canterlot palace. It was always such a beautiful place to see.
Many of the ponies were busy either rushing to or from an area to give her much attention or just simply trying to keep warm while they walked. Twilight's horn lit up as she made sure all of her clothing was pressed just a tad closer until she made a quick walk up to her destination. There would be plenty of time to get warmer when she was inside. Of course, getting there was what had her knees shaking already.
Her legs carried her swiftly along as she passed by several more groups of ponies, giving small nods, and hurried her way to the large doors. A hard push and she was inside the building, shaking herself and rubbing her arms a bit more to quickly warm up. No more heat spells after the last incident. That one had been a bit hard to explain, running through her library in the nude for a bit.
A couple of the guards welcomed her and she greeted them in return, hurrying along and down the vast halls. The purple pony never understood why there was such empty space but it probably came with the royalty status. Having a large building and plenty of room was something most other ponies looked up to. Just a symbol and nothing more.
After sneaking into the place last time, she made a mental note to remember where to archives were. It took a few minutes but she arrived fast enough. Of course, the locked gate to the entrance blocked her progression once again. The purple princess thought about unlocking it herself but not knowing the spell for it might do more damage than actually unlatching it.
“Needing in, Twilight?” one of the guards asked from behind.
“Ah! Uh, yes! Sorry,” she replied, not used to having another pony sneak up on her that wasn't Pinkie. “I just need into the archives is all.”
“No problem!” the guard said and gave a quick cast to the metal lock.
Once the metal clink sounded out, Twilight thanked the armored pony and let him move on as she headed inside. It was always a wondrous place for her. Scrolls and books filled with so many spells and stories from the late Starswirl. She loved this section the most. Nothing compared to learning about new incantations or of the mysterious past of the most well-known magic user.
Her hoofed fingers dances over the rows of scrolls piled upon each other as she passed a few shelves. The spines of books were worn and faded with time, the edges of parchment tattered and stained. There was so much knowledge in such a small area of Equestria. Who knew what kinds of relics or ideas were still undiscovered? The thought alone had the book smart pony giddy and she was already starting her collection.
Several books in her arms and a dozen scrolls landing on top, she was ready to learn. A couple of visits to the area had yielded a small spot she had made for herself after time. The tiny clearing near the window was devoid any book or rolled paper as she magically set the stack of material down near it and settled down into the cozy clearing.
It was hard to imagine that she hadn't found too many useful things through her previous searches in the archives. Still, it didn't mean something didn't exist hidden away. Plenty of looking and trying things out should bring up some sort of spell nopony else knew. Or, at least one long forgotten. It was exciting to have that kind of possibility and not learn more ways to specially handle snow peas or another type of wool turning.
The stripe maned princess settled in and opened the first book, quickly reading and taking in all the contents she could. She would be a while and it wasn't going to be dark too soon from now. Plenty of time to dive right in and just see what surfaced. Starswirl had to have known something special or unique in his findings. Just like that, she was lost in her studies as time moved on.
-
It had been hours since she was searching for something, anything, that would show her that it was a better idea to search here. So far, there was little offering itself even worth the time of opening some of the books. More pointless spells that had no meaning or reason to be conjured. Her fingers flipped through some pages of a few of the open books before her. It all felt so meaningless.
Her eyes were weary from the constant staring at the various texts and doing her best to make sure that she hadn't missed something important. Twilight sighed and rubbed her face, sitting back on her lined coat she had taken off earlier. It made a slightly comfier seat than the stone floor. Perhaps grabbing her glasses would have been a good idea.
The lavender alicorn spread her wings and stretched her arms out in a small grunt, working out some sore muscles before returning back to her slumped position. It didn't make sense to have so much to say without really saying anything. The spells and even herbal recipes were nothing noteworthy in her eyes. Was her time wasted here? The more she thought on it the more she began getting a little peeved.
A light kick with her legs out and she sent a book flying as she dropped back on the floor. Her angry grumbling would have echoed if she were any louder, her hands covering her face in frustration. The pony's ears flicked as she sighed once more before just laying there and staring up at the ceiling. Was it so hard to ask for something new and interesting? Perhaps, useful?
So many years spent studying and learning new spells and using her magic. It was impossible that she had mastered most of it. The highest level spells she couldn't pull off right now but there had to be something else. Her head turned as she let her dark mane spill to the ground. Starswirl had to have hidden away a secret that she could find.
When she got back up, her eyes began looking over the notes she had taken and the few open pieces before her. Riddles, puzzles, and just inane talks had made most of the things seem too silly to be anything proper. It wasn't until she looked along her notes a bit closer that she widened her eyes in excitement.
There was something more! It was still in a puzzle and apparently taken apart across several of his books but she found it. Twilight's eyes sparkled in their interest as she bit her bottom lip and began trying to piece it all together. Whatever the spell was, it had no name or clear definition on what it did. Instructions were in pieces here and there while the actual mental incantation was even further hidden. This didn't stop the purple pony by any means.
With enough thought put into, she was sure she could crack the code. It almost felt one of those spy movies she had seen with her friends. Main character trying feverishly to break a code that's hidden in some books. The idea made her giggle as she continued on and wrote out the various words with arrows indicating proper placement for it to work.
Despite the time it had taken to even get this far it was a lot of fun to turn up something with a bit of potential. Even if it turns out to be another onion peeling recipe at least she was having fun now. Bit by bit, it was coming together and began looking more like a spell. Maybe without the arrows and jumble of other text it would look better but she didn't mind.
Twilight's fingers worked the quill over the paper she had with her tongue lightly poking from between her lips. It was hard not to get so involved with the new discovery, her tail swishing behind her along the floor as she hurried along the last few lines. It was so exciting! What did it hold?
Soon enough, that was revealed as she read the final directions and looked it all over. It took a moment to sink in until she felt a rising blush in her cheek as she noticed what it was suggesting on how to start. It couldn't be serious. Having to arouse oneself to even think of continuing? Twilight nibbled on her lip in contemplation before looking down at herself.
It was too cold outside to find a private area around a building. Her clothing wasn't exactly easy to manage for quick access either. Was she really going to do this? A small look out into the hall showed no other pony in sight. She could at least try a little.
With a small duck back into the room, she moved around one of the shelves and behind it, doing her best to stay as hidden as possible with her notes. Her fingers tapped at the hem of her pants while she stood there and wondered if she was really going to go through with it. It was thrilling to know more things but it was such a strange instruction. Maybe she read it wrong.
Another few minutes of staring at the paper had her draw in a deep breath and let it out slowly. She didn't read it wrong or even piece it together improperly. It really was an odd spell. Reluctantly, she began unbuttoning her pants and carefully tugged the zipper down. It seemed like every sound now was amplified with how paranoid she was getting about doing this in such a place. Going back home would take a bit but she wanted to test it now.
A gentle pry and she looked down at the hem of her white panties beneath, toying with the elastic band some. Her purple, natural coat along her slender stomach had a nice contrast against the white of her underwear. Rarity's recommendation. The tips of her fingers slid under the band as she lowered her fingers further in and stopped just shy of her loins.
This was ridiculous! Why would Starswirl have a spell requiring such prep work? Then again, why did he have several other useless spells laying around but recorded? It wasn't like she had anything to lose in at least trying it. Well, here went nothing.
Her hoofed digits slid down more until she brushed along the tender folds of her most intimate of areas. Each press to the soft area had her elicit a small coo while she worked. Setting the paper to the shelf for easier reading, her body leaned forward as she traced around her vulva and gently cupped her lap. She was getting there.
The purple pony's other hand slipped up under her sweater as she ran her fingers along the lavender coat of her body until she cupped one of her breasts. The bra made it harder to work at her nipples so a pry up let the soft mounds spill out freely. The touch of her fingers along the darker buds of flesh made her shiver while letting her body react accordingly. This wasn't her first time doing such activities but it was certainly her first in doing it in a risky environment.
The more she touched herself in such spots, the more she started feeling those familiar surges of delight run through her body. A slight brush over one of her nipples and the sensitive bud hidden below had her knees give a small buckle. While she wasn't sure about masturbating behind a shelf, it was starting feel rather nice. So long as nopony came by she should be okay.
It was a slow process with her slight paranoia being in check. A few more teases to her snug entrance and she finally eased a finger within. It was hard to keep from making a few small noises in the process as she slipped her hoofed digit nice and gently within. A press up to the roof of her love tunnel and she grunted while pulled back out and repeating the process. Her pants shifted a bit and fell to her thighs as her hand worked inside of her cotton panties.
It took a moment but she eventually felt herself growing wet with a new desire. Her thirst for knowledge was now only just under that undying need to sate her loins. Those fingers began working faster as she rolled her palm against the tender pleasure button. Her other hand tweaked and caressed along one nipple and then the other beneath her sweater.
Despite the cold temperatures outside, it was getting rather hot in the section of the archives she had chosen. Another small dip into her lush folds seemed to bring out the smallest of moans from her. The slick secretions from her depths had given her a case of sticky fingers, moving a finger into her tight slit. The smooth and warm walls hugging her digit felt extremely nice as she let her body tense and squeeze to her probing attempts.
Her other hand lifted the front of her sweater to better see her aroused state with the firm nipples standing attention. The princess gave a light huff as she trailed the tip of her finger around her clitoris and felt the soft pulse of lust run through her. She was getting into this more than she intended to. Her eyes moved to her notes as she breathed out and bit her bottom lip while she read.
Almost having forgotten why she was doing this, she couldn't help but feel a tad naughty for it. Losing herself in the pleasure had seemed to be getting to the book smart alicorn. Her wings stretched out in reaction as she did her best to calm down enough to read. It didn't stop her fingers. They kept up small pokes and glides along her moist slit as she tried following along with the notes. Lucky for her, they seemed to indicate concentrating on the climax before trying the spell the first time.
Right back into it and she was leaning against the shelf while her hips pressed to her hand. The wet mare closed her eyes and panted as she let her exposed breasts press against the row books while her eager masturbation became a tad more frantic. Her mind was slightly clouded in her pleasure as she dribbled a small amount of her juices along her fingers.
The thought of her making her panties more wet crossed her mind as she fingered her aroused sex faster. Deciding not to risk smelling completely like a mare in need, her hand withdrew from her lap only momentarily. A swift tug at her hips and the underwear came sliding down in a quick peel as she pulled them to her knees with her pants.
If a guard were to come check up on her now then it would be a hard time to get dressed quickly enough. The risk almost made the thought more appealing. She wasn't sure why, but it was certainly something to look more into later. Her star marked flanks stayed exposed as she leaned into the shelves and panted in a need she hadn't recognized she ever needed before.
Those fingers maintained their dexterity through soft prods, slow glides, and careful dips right into her snug frame. Her walls were soaked with her feminine fluids as she worked a finger in deep and fast. The resulting sound was one she was afraid almost could be heard into the hall. A wet squish sounded out and the draw back had a similar slurp.
“W-why is... Ohh~” she mumbled to herself, unable to keep a very coherent thought through the process. “Got to... mmf... Oh, please,” she whispered, teasing her sex more.
Her eyes stayed shut tight as she did her own kind of magic on her heated lap before she whimpered out in lust. A leg rose and settled back as she kept up the swift teasing to her dribbling sex while her body drew dangerously close to hitting that peak. If somepony like Celestia came by to even check on her, she wouldn't have a way to hide her body at all.
That thought made her knees grow weak and her burning desire light up more. Her hand cupped her lap as she pressed her perky chest into the books before her. With the slight curve of her body from the stance and lean, it probably looked as if she were ready to be taken nice and hard. Her tail lifted and shifted to the side as she panted and rolled a finger over her magic bead several times.
“Oh, Celestia... take me,” she whispered, letting her tiny fantasy move her on.
It took only moments as she drew near, playing with herself as she thought of her mentor teaching her the ways of a true mare. Some lubricated strap-on and a good push in would set her off like no other right now. She could almost feel it happen as her horn lit up and gently eased her folds apart. The invisible presence had her mind go wild while her fingers kept up their work on that firm nub.
It was too much for the horny girl, vigorously rubbing her clit as her nipples pressed to the cool spines of the books. Her mind stayed on that fantasy as she pressed her cheek to the shelf before her and her hips wiggled in that lust. There was no point in holding back, especially considering that she wanted to see what this spell did. Without waiting, her finger traced around her exposed bud, feeling it give a small wink, before sinking two fingers within her spread entrance.
The sudden fill of her hoofed digits had her eyes shoot open as she held her folds apart with that magical grasp. Her voice was lost for a minute as she plunged her fingers in and out, rapidly thrusting into her needy hole as that slick mare pussy finally gave in. The clench onto her fingers was tight as she gripped them and felt her muscles do their instinctive milking motions. Her purple ears pinned back to her head as she finally moaned out in a muffled groan, her female juices giving a quick spray to her hand while her body locked up and shuddered.
“C-Celestia~” she cooed out and brought her shaky knees together. It was a powerful orgasm and the sweet egghead pony was barely able to stand.
Her eyes were unfocused for a bit as she enjoyed the moment and basked in her afterglow until slowly remembering where she was. Those violet eyes gaze a lazy look down at the page of notes while she stood up and looked down at her body. No way to clean up her slick desires right now. May as well see what this was all about. A light touch to her matted lap in her juices made her shiver a bit while she began to read.
With a mind still focused on pleasure, she tried concentrating on the words as she looked over the process. Her eyes closed after a minute and she began to focus her magic as her horn lit up brightly, giving off a small spark or two in the moment. It was a very specific area that she had to train on, just above her damp slit, to make sure the spell would land properly.
It was a bit hard to keep a clear mind now that the warm fluid had grown cold from the air. Her body shivered as she did her best to conjure the spell's effect until she felt an odd sensation begin working at her lap. It was warm and started feeling a bit..longer? There was a quick flash of her magic as it finished before she finally opened her eyes up.
Once she glanced down, her eyes widened in surprised. There was some extra equipment she seemed to have stocked herself with now. From her lap, there was a rather large and thick shaft of a dark hue from her natural coat. The stalk of flesh was easily as thick as her wrist. Was this the spell's intent?
She only took a glance at the paper before her hand laid over the top of the warm and firm shaft. The touch made her gasp and pull away, stepping back as the thick pole swayed from side to side. It was almost as sensitive as her clitoris. The thought had her reach down and caress along the side of one large orb that made her relax a bit. These new feelings with the added pleasure were certainly something to experiment with.
The lower that hand went made her feel a stirring from her lap. Was she still this aroused? The touch beneath the heavy sack she had revealed her still-wet folds as she rubbed them lightly. It still felt just as good yet she was far more interested in her stallion member she was endowed with now. The turgid flesh gave dull throbs as she kept rubbing her slit until she pulled her hand up and lightly touched the side of her firm rod.
Her eyes gave a half-lid at the feeling while her hand slid up to the end of her length and over the head. Those knees gave another shake as she teased the lightly flaring edges until backing off. The area was starting to smell like sex with her arousal coupled with the new hint of stallion in the mix. It was strangely erotic and tickled her senses in ways she never knew.
That thick shaft gave a few idle pulses as she looked along it before risking a peek around the large bookcase. No others in sight or the sound of any hooves heading her way. The intelligent pony stood still for a minute before easing back behind the case once more and leaning her back along the shelves. Maybe a bit more studying on it could reveal better results instead of staring.
Her hands pressed on either side of her phallus as she felt her heart speed up with every little touch. The feeling was lovely when she moved her hands up and back down, giving a small squeeze and shivering. It took a second to get a proper grip on the tool that felt right before giving a bit more eager strokes to herself.
“Wow... Mm, this is... really nice,” she admits to herself, watching each movement of her hands along the bare flesh.
When her fingers reached up behind the flared end of it, her body almost went numb while the tip drooled out a little bit of some clear fluid. Upon noticing this, her finger swiped up the silky substance as she gasped from the touch. A small sniff at it and she raised a brow. It had a more heavy scent than her usual wetness, not sure what to make of it.
She wasn't a completely clueless pony. Her reading had given her knowledge on this subject but that never meant the same as firsthand experience. The pre-seed was very slick, her fingers smearing it between them until she stuck her tongue out. A small lick and she let the taste linger before licking it again and rolling her tongue around. It wasn't that bad and it wasn't even the full contents of what she could only guess was held in her newly acquired balls.
Those hands went back to work along her shaft, stroking nice and slow as she did her best to figure out a rhythm. It was a little tricky finding one that suited her but she managed. A light fondle and her body arched forward from the hips. The wetness from her hidden folds was starting to dribble along her inner thighs and the back of that hefty sack while she moved her hands up and down.
It was a feeling she had never experienced before and she was enjoying it greatly. Whatever reason Starswirl needed such a spell for wasn't important to her at all. She was just happy that she was able to enjoy something so new and unique. It was addicting.
Every pump of her hands down her love stick made her give a little grunt and work a tad faster. So, this is how good it felt for stallions? No wonder it seemed most sounded eager to jump at the chance for such pleasure. Twilight grinned and continued, her fingers dancing up and down that hard mass. The pass over her medial ring each time made her shudder a breath while drooling in pleasure from the masturbation.
The work along her meaty girth had her growing weaker in the legs while she leaned to the shelves and watched a bit of that clear fluid drool down to the floor. It was hard to get a proper position with her lower legs still bound in her pants and panties. Her hooves made small clacks to the hard floor at each step when she seemed to bring out a bit more of that bliss from the strokes.
When her fingers passed over the head, her body tensed up from the sudden pleasure as she smeared the liquid over it. The pre was like a perfect lubricant and felt amazing when she dragged her digits down the belly of that cock. Why hadn't she found this spell before? It was amazing! The dry work on her pleasure rod earlier was now becoming far better with her self-made lubricant leaking out the tip.
As the minutes ticked by, the futanari pony's arms and hands moved up and down, passing over her flesh as she coated her length in that silky substance. The clear fluid was making for a wonderful time now. Each pass over the flared end was having her squirming and biting her lip to keep her from making too much noise. In fact, the motions were doing enough that already.
Each slick stroke up and down gave out a wet sound that only got her more turned on. Something about the noise made her mind go back into that little fantasy moments ago but with the tables turned. Her eyes closed as she imagined just what it might be like to really use this thing on a mare. Her breathing was getting a bit heavier as she licked her lips a few times from the thought.
The tiny bit of mental images that ran through her mind had her leaking from the tip like a broken faucet. Twilight's groans were getting louder as she let her mind run rampant with perverted thoughts. Celestia bent over and ready to accept Twilight's new staff into those amazing depths. Oh, she could hardly wait to really see how it felt.
The more she stroked the more her hips seemed to thrust forward as those heavy orbs below would sway and pat her inner thighs. Her breasts were pushed together with her arms as she held onto her new addition and whimpered in lust. She couldn't think of anything that would ever top this unless she were able to get it inside one of her friends.
“Oh, Celestia... I... I want to... cum inside,” she breathes, feeling a tad embarrassed about her words. She heard it some clop video she saw once. For research. A few nights in a row. Alone.
Her body was building up within and she could feel that wall holding back her orgasm begin to crack. The purple hermaphrodite pony bucked her hips as she held on tightly to the shaft. Bits of pre flecked the books in front of her as she moaned and felt herself drooling a little from her muzzle. This was too good.
Having never had one before, Twilight's fingers massaged and slid up her member as she tried to mimic the feeling her wet love tunnel makes when climaxing. It was only a few more seconds of it before she felt a primal surge rush through her like no other. Those hips gave a few thrusts as she held onto her length before it finally happened.
The head of her shaft flared up and her shaft throbbed, giving a few pulses until the first thick burst of her hot seed sprayed out in a gush of white bliss. Her moans were loud and she did her best to stifle them but it didn't help when the second rope of her creamy essence erupted from that purple wand. Those full balls drew up against her loins as they expelled as much of her cum as possible while she squeaked in her orgasm.
Her mind was utterly lost in the whole moment, feeling like she was close to a seizure with how intense it was. A quick stroke and she gasped as a few more spurts of that spunk painted the opposing bookcase while she let loose. It felt like it had a mind of its own with how it kept throbbing and spilling plenty of her newly made semen.
“Ah~ I'm sorry,” she apologized to the books she's coating, barely turning away to let the rest slap the ground in wet and heavy splats.
Soon enough, the orgasm eases and her muscles start to relax while that dripping hose drools out the rest of the contents along the floor near her hooves. She had never thought it would ever be something that intense. From how it felt and caught her by surprise, she wasn't sure if she should be thankful she was alive or just for it feeling so good. A glance at her pants and panties showed she stayed mostly dry. A look back to the books told her they weren't so lucky.
The thing wasn't going down! It wilted some but hardly went down like in the videos or when she read about them. In fact, it wasn't going away at all. Worried, Twilight looks over to her notes and scans the page quickly. Nothing had been said on when it goes away. Did it leave when it was finally done and no longer excited?
The thought made Twilight feel the blood leave her face. How would she explain this to her friends? The thought of mounting them was hot in the moment but now it was a little terrifying that they may not want to be around her. It might scare them or worse.
A deep breath or two and she slowly calmed down while thinking. They would accept her new..equipment. They just might be a bit wary or something and she could easily jot it down as just an experiment. That would have them understand. She hoped.
Her knees bent and she pulled her panties back up, letting the hug to the base of the shaft and cling to her thick balls. The weren't being contained easily. When she tried pulling her pants up, she couldn't get the zipper even half-way. A good half of the length still jutted up from her clothing which left her only one other option. The purple pony tugged the end of her sweat down over it once her bra was cupping her chest once more.
Mostly hidden was the best she was going to do. The outline of it was clear as day when she tried smoothing out the top. May as well wear things a tad baggier, if possible. Her heart was still racing and every movement had her shirt rubbing against the member, which then rubbed back along her stomach and up her torso some.
It took plenty of work to clean the books but it was impossible to get it all. The next time anypony tried opening them it would probably be a hard to get the pages unstuck. She might have to come back later and fix that better. The floor was cleaned a little and she made sure her white and sticky substance was off as much of the room as possible. Finally, it was cleaned.
Hungry and looking to get back home, Twilight took her notes and put everything back while slipping on her lined coat. Buttoning it up provided better cover as she walked briskly out of the archives and out of the palace. No sense in lingering around, especially with that scent still in the air. Her eyes were wide with worry as she hurried along and muttered a quick bye to the guards.
Her coat stayed buttoned as she got onto the train and checked her watch before sighing. She had missed a meal without knowing and felt a little more tired than usual. Did stallions usually get this way? Hungry and tired after... that?
A blush formed on her muzzle as she thought over the whole ordeal and then what her friends might say or think upon learning of this. Maybe they wouldn't be against so much. She knew they were very supportive. Maybe even... willing? The train lurched and began its journey back to Ponyville as the purple pony settled in and decided that maybe a nap would help her figure out on ways to let them know. Until then, it would probably be a good idea to not move too much before she reached her destination.
