This is where I will put the short stories I've written for my sis from her universe.

This is a place for shorts that have spawned in my Sister's Modern AU fic that she is writing. She has given me permission to play in her sandbox and later I'll be scribe. Some things may be touched on in her story or they may not be.

Ranting Ink And Teasing Strawberries

Author's Note

The first chapter is discussing my sister's OC InkFire's sexuality, which is asexuality and the second is one of her other OC's giving her main OC's shit when his crush sleeps over.

Ranting Ink And Teasing Strawberries

Chapter One: Ranting Ink

InkFire paces the library agitatedly, mainly in front of an unamused Brainiac. The purple stallion sighs, sipping almost contentedly on the coffee the gray green mare brought him.

“Why are you here again?” he asks her boredly.

“Because I need somepony to vent to.”

“Okay… Isn’t that what Rose or Hunter are for?” he asks wanting to punt her out of the library before she wears a hole into the floor. InkFire stops her pacing to stare at him, it’s unnerving how still she becomes.

“I want somepony who won’t try to make feel better, yet, or stop me so that she can demand who has made me feel this way so that she can beat the stuffing out of him slash her.”

A suffering look crosses Brainiac’s face. However he can see the pain hidden in Ink’s eyes put that together with the fact that while Ink can talk for hours she very rarely talks, to him at least, about her problems… probably talks poor Rose Sniffers ears off.

“Very well.”

And the pacing begins again, InkFire’s mouth opening and closing as she tries to find the right words. Brainiac waits “patiently” his eyebrow barely twitching.

“There are times when I feel… not broken but not right either. I see couples together together and I just don’t get the appeal. Sure I can be like a romantic and see the romance in like setting up a candle lit dinner,” InkFire makes a face that is a mix between grossed out and happy “and I love it when my friends are happy in a relationship… but I shudder at the thought of it happening to me, I see no appeal in it. The mere thought of coitus literally disgusts me,” she speaks quickly without pausing for air a distressed look building on her face. When she finally does stop to take a breath, it’s deep and shuddery. She’s looking down so she misses Brainiac’s look of revulsion at the thought of InkFire, his sister’s best friend and almost little sister, and coitus… just not an image he wants in his head. Before he can voice that thought InkFire is talking once more.

“I can find somepony physically attractive, there are a few guards that I’ve sneak pinched their plots. I… I don’t want them you know? I don’t want to date them or have a one night stand… I just find them pretty or handsome. And now I feel like I’m talking in circles and no one ever takes me serious when I talk about this…. other than Rose but she’s my bestie so she takes everything that is supposed to be serious serious. The others though, they keep saying ‘Just wait, you’ll find your special somepony that will change your mind.’ That won’t change my bloody mind, I don’t want a special somepony… I… I don’t need relationships, don’t want them…” InkFire looks over at Brainiac sadly. And of course he handles with with his usual amount of tact.

“So you’re having a sexual orientation dilemma ? Dear Celestia save me.”

“No… I know what I like or in this case don’t like or need or want ever…”

“Sooooooo?”

“I just needed to vent! I told you that before, I’m pretty damn sure I’m asexual or at least some variant of it but one believes it or they think I’m playing hard to get. Oh, oh here’s another thing that has been told to me! ‘Just because you're asexual doesn’t mean you can’t date’ nah dip Sherlock! I don’t bloody….” InkFire cuts herself off and glares at the ground. Brainiac sighs, waits to make sure she’s done ranting and talks.

“Ignore the morons. There are a lot of them. Don’t let them force you into something you don’t want…. And bring me more coffee!”

InkFire laughs, the dark feelings she had been holding onto released into the air and Brainiac’s tactlessness just the cure for her dour mood…. for once. She had needed a friend to rant to and he had let her, he had maybe even listened to it all. She salutes him playfully.

“Aye, aye Captain! oh when I get back we can talk about stuff you’ll enjoy like the different types of Nukure ponies.”

Chapter Two: Teasing Strawberries

Strawberry Cocktail, proclaimed best friend of one Brainiac, smiles looking down at the head of said best friend. His friend has his head resting on his main desk uncaring that he’s going to end up with ink stains on his face.

“Sooo… you and Twilight?”

“Shut up Strawberry.”

“Never. I want details!”

With a groan Brainiac lifts his head from the desk, papers sticking to his cheek. He gives his ginger haired friend a dour look before a mischievous glint enters his tired eyes.

“Alright, Twilight and I went to my room and we had fabulous sex.”

Strawberry scrunches up his nose.

“Not the details I wanted… And I doubt the Princess would consent to sex after a single date.”

“Your lack of faith in my wooing ways hurts.”

The ginger snorts and raises an eyebrow.

“Will there be a second date?”

“Maybe…”

“You didn’t ask?!”

“It wasn’t even a real first date Strawberry.”

Letting out a conflicted and frustrated groan Strawberry facehoofs.

“Brainy, I saw the Princess leave your library. She stayed. in. a. single. place. With you, overnight.”

“So?”

“Not very many people do that, even when they are order to. She’s a keeper don’t let her go.”

Brainiac groans again thumping his head back on the desk.

“Go away.”

“I feel as if we’ve had this conversation before. Not leaving.”

There are muffled curses from Brainiac.

“You like her, how hard is that? Ask her out. She likes you too.”

“Why am I friends with you again? You optimism is sickening.”

“Because I actually stuck around and I buy you lunch you moocher.”

At that moment Brainiac’s stomach lets loose a low grumble. Strawberry sighs fondly.

“Well come on, off to the cafe we go. And since I’m such a nice friend I won’t mention that Twilight slept over to your sister.”

“Celestia I hate you.”

“Love you too.”
