Prologue

Twilight sighed to herself as the sun began to slowly set below the horizon. 32 different candidates for a research assistant and they all were either trying to get in between her legs or trying to get a favor out of the princess. Another groan left her mouth as she slowly put her head on the table, giving up all hope. A sudden knock at the door roused her from her despair and she sighed and trotted over to the door, expecting yet another horny stallion.

“I’m not taking anymore applications for assistants.” She said as she opened the large crystal door.

“Oh, terribly sorry. I’ll just be on my way then.” The stranger’s voice said as he began to walk away, a manilla folder in the crook of his arm.

Twilight’s eyes went wide as she realized who had just been at her door. A human, a real human that now looked crushed as he walked away with his papers in his arm.

“WAIT!” Twilight called out.

The human turned around and looked at the lavender alicorn.

Twilight rushed over to him and held a hoof out to him.

“Twilight Sparkle. I didn’t realize that you actually wanted the job.” She sputtered.

The human cocked his eyebrow.

“It’s a long story, why don’t you come inside and we can talk?” Twilight looked at him hopefully.

The human could only smile as he followed Twilight back to the castle.

“So you’re the infamous Twilight Sparkle huh?” the human said as the pair entered the castle library.

“The one and only.” She beamed. She could hardly contain her joy that a human could be her research assistant.

“Name’s Richard, but everyone calls me Ricky.” He said.

“Very pleased to meet you Ricky. So what made you interested in this job?” Twilight asked, summoning a teapot and two teacups out of thin air.

“Well, when I got here a couple months ago, I could only find manual labor rather than a job like this due to the fact that these types of jobs are so rare. When I saw your ad in the newspaper, I jumped up at the opportunity.” Ricky explained as Twilight mixed the tea.

“It’s green tea, want some?” Twilight asked, offering him a cup full of the hot liquid.

“Oh sweet! I love green tea!” Ricky said excitedly, taking the cup from her magical grip.

“So what exactly are your qualifications?” Twilight asked, getting to the real part of the interview. Part of her wanted to hire him on the spot yet she knew that he needed to have the guts and smarts to do it first.

“Well, I was a biology major back on Earth and I took a 1 year course at the University of Canterlot on Magical arts and elements. I also have a potion making certificate.” Ricky stated, sipping at his tea.

“You’re hired.” Twilight said.

Ricky spit out his tea.

“WHAT?!” He shouted.

Noticing Twilight being covered with the sweet liquid, he blushed bright red and avoided making eye contact with her.

She giggled as her horn lit up and dried herself off.

“Everypony that has come in has either wanted a favor or to get in between my legs.” Twilight sighed.

“I wouldn’t blame them, you are quite pretty.” Ricky said with a smile.

Twilight’s own cheeks turned rose red at the compliment.

“Thanks. Nopony has really complimented me like that before.” Twilight said bashfully.

“So they’ve been lying to you?” Ricky asked, his smile now turning sly.

“Did you also take a course on being a mere magnet Ricky?” Twilight giggled.

“Maybe I did. Though I was no prize back home. Then again, I was a stick with legs. Now I’ve got some muscle to me.” He said, flexing his arms.

Twilight couldn’t help but feel a slight tingle in her loins as she stared at his defined torso through his tight shirt.

“So when do I start then Princess?” Ricky asked.

“Please, just call me Twilight. You’re gonna live with me now anyway. There is a guest suite up the stairs to the right. Bedroom, bathroom with a full shower and a small workspace area with desk and chair.” Twilight pointed up the stairs.

“Wow and a place to live? I think I could get used to this real fast.” Ricky chuckled.

“I’ll have my assistant Spike bring your things over alright? I’ll give you a tour of the lab right now.” Twilight said, getting to her hooves and trotting to a smaller door and pressing a button. The door opened and an eerie purple glow emanated from the inside. Ricky and Twilight stepped through and Ricky gawked at the sight. Beakers, vials, machines of all different sorts and best of all, a set of lab coats and safety gear made for humans.

“What’s with the human gear?” Ricky asked.

“Taylor helped me with a project in the past. I decided to keep it just in case.” Twilight said.

“Oh! Bon Bon’s husband?” Ricky asked.

“Yep. Everyone here in town loves him. Save Lyra of course, since he’s the reason she is facing 25 years in prison.” Twilight shuddered.

“What did she do?” Ricky asked.

“You don’t want to know. Right now why don’t we show you your suite?” Twilight offered.

“I’d like that.” Ricky replied.

They closed the lab and climbed the flight of stairs to the guest suite. Twilight wasn’t kidding, it was big. Twilight flopped down on the bed to demonstrate its softness. She landed in a quite suggestive pose which made the both of them blush in embarrassment.

“So I guess I’ll leave you to it. Spike brought all your things and they're all organized. See you tomorrow morning!” Twilight said cheerily.

Ricky suddenly gave Twilight a scratch behind her ear before she left. She shuddered at the feeling.

“Sorry, You ok?” Ricky asked.

“Yeah, that just feels good.” Twilight winked at him.

“Duly noted.” Ricky said, shutting the door behind her.

Ricky came downstairs after he freshened himself up and ate some breakfast.

“What’s on the agenda Twilight?” He asked.

“Today is my day off actually but I’d be grateful if you could run out and get some things for me.” Twilight said.

“Well, it is my job after all.” He chuckled as Twilight handed him the list.

It was the usual chemist materials and some extra vials and...eggs?

Ricky laughed to himself as he shut the door behind him.
