A Land of Giants and a Stallion Named Smalls

I watched as Smalls' view lowered down, half covered by silver mane. "How long have they been at it?" I asked, having since steadied my voice.

Steel shook her head. "I have no idea. To be honest, time has always been a bit of a blur." She rubbed her face with her hoof. "To be honest, I am a bit worried. You're rather big in general, I don't want you ripping her open."

I laughed loudly. "I? Smalls and I share much, but we're hardly the same person."

The huffing and moans echoing around my void felt painfully awkward. Steel covered her hoof. "Animals...the both of them." I could see her starting to sweat. "They just don't know any--"

"They're enjoying themselves...." I held my hoof up and teetered it back and forth. "They've been seeing each other a lot, at least, I think so." I scratched my head. "Do you know how long it's been?"

"Since?"

"Since...I suppose marking dates by the ingredients will work well enough." I held my hoof up and tapped it with my other. "Today...what was it today?"

"I think Smalls spat out an opal, it's not powdered, but we can figure that out." Steel looked out of Smalls' eyes as a sharp whine echoed about. "Dear Celestia...animals."

"Right, so when was the poison plant?" I set my hooves down and watched as Smalls' vision started to shake harder. "Oh-- Is he going to have a seizure mid mount?"

Steel started laughing. "Oh dear, will you be alright if he does?"

I shook my head. "I have no idea. Damneded fool."

Steel tapped her hoof on the ground a few times. "I'm trying to use something to count. Feedings don't really work. I suppose medications might...but it's hard to distinguish. Feels shorter than it has been, I can tell you that much."

I sighed loudly. "Long enough for those two to start making foals...." I shook my head. "I suppose the impaired have drives just as any other pony does."

"Are you really not controlling this?" Steel looked up at me with a cocked head. "I could have sworn you were trying to tell me something."

I shook my head and watched as Smalls leaned forward and back, his vision fixed on the floor next to Screw's hoof. "Smalls might be. But it's hard to have a sex drive when you lack a penis...or balls."

Steel stood back and lifted her leg. She looked back at herself, barely able to lean around. "Huh...never really thought about it. We don't have genitalia like this, do we?"

"We don't shit, we don't eat, we don't have bodily functions." I shrugged. Smalls kept huffing, the sound of male grunts, even in my own voice were starting to grow a bit much. "How long is this going to go on for?!"

"Dear Celestia, your body can really go."

I frowned hard and nodded. "Truly not a joke. One would think someone that hardy wouldn't be taken down by anything."

Steel sighed and fanned herself with her hoof. "So, should we talk? Or just wait for this to finish?"

"Well, I think we might be in a different frame of time than them. That's the only reason I can come up with for this." I shook my head. "Good Goddess of the Sun...where is the staff!? Shouldn't they stop this?!"

Steel licked her lips. "I don't know. But, maybe they'll leave us alone long enough for me to hide the supplies." She looked up at me. "Again, how--"

"Smalls bit off a mare's necklace." I pushed my lips to the side. "By the end of this, I won't have much of a body to go back to."

Steel laughed. "You think I'll fare much better?" She shook her head. "Needless to say, I'm going to give her a while to rest before I go back into that mare."

I snorted. "I can try and make him stop. But I really doubt he'll listen to me telling him to stop." The grunting grew louder. "I think he's rather caught up!"

Steel cocked her head. "What!?"

"I said I think he's rather caught up!" A loud grumble started to roar around us. "Pissing heck! This is horrid!"

The rumbled grew louder and louder until finally it stopped. The grunting stopped and Smalls vision shifted up then down. Under him was Screw, her legs locked and tail yanked to the side. She was panting like a hound. Steel bit her lip and frowned. "If we continue to talk after this--"

"Which we will."

Steel nodded. "Never speak of this."

I coughed into my hoof. "Never talk of your body panting like a dog after being plowed by a simple pony? Somehow I don't think it'll come up."

Steel snorted angrily and shook her head. "I'm going to go hide the opal...until we talk again...." She walked out into the black void.

I watched as Smalls limped out. Something felt off. There was a human in the hall, someone with the look of death about him. His eyes were sunken in deep and he wore a bright red badge on his shoulder. Is eyes lingered on me as Smalls hurried away.

"Lord Cross?" The human followed Smalls. "Lord Cross is that you?"

My void grew brighter. My brain clicked again. "Well, that narrows the list...." I laughed to myself and sat down. "Lord Cross, now Smalls. What a mess you are my friend, what a mess you are."
