Shifting Melodies - The Lost Stanzas

Ledger was working hard...or at least trying to work hard. A certain nymph having fun with her spell was... distracting.

He thunked his head against the table, not noticing his door open slightly... but he did hear it close. But as he looked around, he didn’t see anypony in the room. Ledger shrugged before turning back to his desk and getting back to the price rates. For the work that was going on, knowing the prices of everything being offered in the city was important. Along with the pricing for things in other places. A set amount of bits that would see a nymph comfortable in Ponyville might not do for Manehatten.

He heard a small ‘whump’ and then...

Something was rubbing his member... He pushed back from the desk slightly, just as he saw Scope take him into her mouth, her eyes twinkling with mischief.

“Somebuggy’s cheeky,” Ledger whispered to her via Hivespeak.

“You said you wanted an ‘under-the-desk’ deal, did you not?” she asked back, humming as she took a little more into her.

“I didn’t expect you to take me so seriously,” he replied. “...Want an accommodation spell while you’re at it?”

“I’m good for now,” Scope hummed, her tongue swirling around the head as she hummed again. “Mmm, someone is sooo pent up...I wonder why~”

“Keep it up and I won’t be,” the drone said. “And I was more offering so you could test more limits of the spell. I doubt your frame is built for someone like myself in any regard…”

“Perfafs,” she said aloud, sending vibrations down his shaft. “Now shut up and enjoy this already.”

“I can do that,” he said as he leaned back in his chair, his thoughts about the pricing gone as he basked in the moment. “I can so do that…”

At least...until there was a knock at his office door. One of his workers called out from the other side.

“Boss, there’s ah...somepony really important here to see you!”

Ledger sat up and made sure Scope was listening before answering. “Send them in, then.”

Scope squeaked, then smiled. So he wanted to play by those rules huh? Well, okay then...

Let’s see how he liked one of his own tricks turned back on him. Her body flashed for a second, before he felt a very familiar Thestral tongue wrapping around his cock. As a result, he greeted the guest while exercising every atom of his self-control to not moan.

His visitor walked in, looking around inquisitively as she did.

“Hello Level Ledger,” Princess Twilight Sparkle greeted him. “How have you been?”

“There have been ups and downs, your highness,” Ledger replied evenly, and Scope grinned and started to bob her head slightly. “Might I ask why you’re here?”

“Oh, well seeing that all the Changeling activity that’s going on here. Princess Celestia sent me to investigate on how it’s all proceeding, and lend a helping hoof if I need...to...?” She gave the stallion a curious look. “Are you alright? Your face is a little red...”

“I’m just fine,” Ledger said with a small smile. “...Though it is a little hot in here, but I’ll get some water later. And yes, none of my workers are ponies at the moment. It didn’t start that way, but once word got out that I was hiring changelings, those that needed a quick bit applied to help make up for the sudden lack of ponypower.”

“Well, it’s good to see you’re being so productive,” Twilight smiled as she took a seat. Scope opened the back of her throat as she took him a little deeper, that tongue squeezing him, milking him...Ledger let out a mostly silent hiss as he sent a wordless rebuke across their mental link.

“Is there another reason behind your visit, your highness?” Ledger asked as he tried to remain still in his seat.

“Oh, I just wanted to visit my friends really,” she blushed slightly, her wings fluffing up a little. It was pretty damned adorable...and Scope wasn’t helping!!

“Ohh, idea...just imagine the little Alicorn doing this~” she purred into his head as she sucked him. Ledger managed to disguise his buck as him merely shifting forward in his seat to prop up his head on his forelegs.

“Wrong tongue for that,” Ledger idly chided the nymph. Though the image was...tempting. Still, he was fine with the amount he had. He just had to keep repeating that, and he’d believe it. “That’s all well and good, but something tells me a curious mare like yourself is here for more than the friendship and the business.”

"Well, I do have a few things to speak to Miss Midnight about," Twilight blushed a little and smiled. She took an interest in one of the paintings on the wall, and failed to notice the subtle flash from under the desk.

There were now two Twilights in the room. Something Ledger noticed immediately when he looked under his desk. He swore he was going to die of blood loss one of these days, with how Scope seemed intent on ‘playing’ with him. Dammit, he needed that blood in his other head! There was no way he could carry on a conversation with Twilight without it!

“Oh? What about, if I may ask?”

"Hmmm," Twilight shook her head and smiled. "Nope, that's a secret~"

“Your Highness,” Ledger said as he tried to focus. “I believe I am entitled to know just a little about the topic, as it is my finace we’re talking about. Plus, do you really want to walk into a meeting with Midnight without foreknowledge?”

"Well she asked me something the last time we met. I want to discuss it further."

“I see,” said Ledger, not seeing at all. “Well, she’s currently out running errands of her own. I don’t know where she is, actually, but I’d gladly escort you to the farm when I’m done with this work here.” And the work under his desk. The work that was taking advantage of her larger form and suddenly took his whole length into her maw. Fuck, that felt good! It took all of his respect for the mare in front of him to not say what he was currently thinking.

"Well alright, I still have to get settled into my hotel, so I'll see you a little later," Twilight gave him another smile and left his office…

Ledger sighed before falling back in his chair and looking down to the ‘Twilight’ under his desk. “You’re going to hang this over my head forever, aren’t you?” he deadpanned.

She pulled off of him with a lewd pop and smiled sweetly.

"What makes you say that?" 'Twilight' purred as she climbed up onto the desk and lay on her back. "Want to show me how much you love your Princess?"

Ledger grinned lewdly as well. “I am just going to experience a variety of tastes with you, aren’t I?” he asked. That was all the warning she got before he started returning the favor. She moaned as she threw up a soundproofing barrier. This was going to get interesting. Especially when she felt that tongue shift and change…

Oh, apparently he was giving her his version of the Midnight Spec-

That was about as far as coherent thought went, because then that tongue really went to town on her. She thought he was good before. Apparently, he’d had a lot of practice with this tongue as of late. Midnight was probably to blame for that, somehow. The stallion pulled back and licked his lips slowly, before making another observation.

“Hmm, I can’t really place it, but you taste simply magical,” he quipped before diving back in.

“......” Scope just groaned and stared up at the ceiling. “That was terrible.”

Ledger’s tongue didn’t make any more of a response than him serving her tunnel, though he did pull a trick the others had warned her of. A loop of tongue finding and circling her clit...

‘Twilight’ groaned as she went to the next step, using magic to alter her voice. “Ahhn~ Oh Ledger~” Then that tongue starting tweaking that nub of flesh as he used his tongue back and forth in her pussy, licking and twirling along her inner walls. She tightened around him as she arched her back, her hooves resting on the back of his head.

“Ahh, oh god...soooo good~” The stallion didn’t stop, though. Even if it was a fake, he wanted to hear this ‘Twilight’ come for him.

...Okay, so he might have had a slight fantasy around the lavender alicorn. He soon got his wish, as the Alicorn spread across his desk gave a loud cry and she climaxed, her hooves holding him there as her juices drenched his face. She kept making these adorable whimpering sounds as she finally released him, her wings twitching as she rode out the end of her euphoria.

“Is my princess pleased with my service?” Ledger asked as he licked the juices off of his face with his still-long tongue. He could taste this all day~

Twilight groaned as she rolled over, taking a few breaths. “Y-Yes, very...pleased. But... I have another request, my...research, isn’t complete...” Her hind legs dangled off of the edge of the desk as she flicked her tail to one side. She glanced behind her, giving him an embarrassed look as she bit her bottom lip. “Perhaps... you could help me study some more?”

“What do you need from me, your highness?” Ledger asked as he traced along her flank with one hoof. He wanted her to say it...to beg for it… “What aid could you possibly need from me?”

“P-Please,” she whispered, bucking her hips ever-so-slightly. “Take me, I want it... I need you inside me~”

“Didn’t you just have that?” Ledger teased, using his still-long tongue to remind the faux-Twilight.

“Unnh, I need your cock inside me,” she whined. “Please, fuck me Ledger!”

“As my princess commands,” Ledger said, rearing up to mount ‘Twilight’, practice making perfect as he felt himself hilt his first few inches somewhere wet, warm, and tight. ‘Twilight’ gave out a deep moan as she clenched herself around him.

“Ohh yes, show me... how much you want your Princess!”

“Then she had better brace herself,” Ledger warned as he gave her a single buck and hilted half of himself inside of the mare with great difficulty. The only thing he had to compare it to was his first time with Scope, but he wasn’t sure that counted. Those were extremely extenuating circumstances. This wasn’t that bad...but it was close.

She opened her mouth in a silent scream of pleasure, and Ledger felt her tighten around him as she shuddered, a fierce blush covering her face. “Does my princess still want me?” Ledger asked mock-innocently.

“K-keep going,” she said in a shaky voice. “You’d better...keep going mister.” Ledger obliged and gave her another thrust, burying a few more inches of himself inside the mare beneath him.

“I don’t know, I wouldn’t want to hurt your highness by giving her more than she can handle,” the disguised drone mused aloud. “I’d better stop here…”

“Stop, being so mean,” she pouted. “I thought you loved your Princess?”

“If you think you can handle it…” Ledger gave her another buck and nearly completely buried himself in her. “Then don’t complain when you’re stretched too wide.”

You think... your princess can’t handle it?” she bucked her hips and smiled. “Go ahead Ledger, use your Princess however you want.”

With that, he hammered himself home and just held himself there, letting ‘Twilight’ get used to his full length and girth. “Whenever you think you’re ready, highness,” Ledger said. “I will be happy to prove you wrong.”

Sweet Hives he was big, even in her larger form, he filled her up so much. “Y-Yes, it will be good, for my studies,” she moaned.

“Oh?” Ledger asked, curious as to where she could be going with this. “And might I ask what you could possibly be studying now, your highness?”

“The...uuhn~ How many orgasms can an Alicorn have?”

“Funny,” Ledger said as he slowly drew out of the mare. “I thought it would have been something along the lines of ‘Changeling reproduction practices.’” With that, he pounded back in in one swift motion before she could reply.

“Ooh, Changeling..ahh~ Mating practices... might be...useful.”

“I’m so happy we agree,” Ledger all but purred as he began setting a slow and steady pace. ‘Twilight’ groaned as she rocked slowly with his rhythm, her hooves gripping the edge of the desk as she panted and moaned with each thrust.

“Ah~ Yes! Harder!” Ledger ducked down to nip at her ears, lightly, for that comment.

“Do you truly think you could handle harder, my princess?” the disguised drone asked, giving her one hard buck for comparison’s sake. Her eyes shot open as he buried himself in her and she let out a loud gasp, small sparks shooting from her horn.

“I-I’ve studied hard... so show me~” she groaned, her horn lighting up as she caressed his balls with her magic. The stallion atop her showed his appreciation for her attention by upping the pace a touch, giving her hard and steady thrusts so that she could get used to the feeling of being pounded steadily.

“I do hope you can handle my thick texts, your highness,” Ledger commented.

“Mmm, its content is quite filling,” ‘Twilight’ replied. She shifted slightly to get more comfortable. “Maybe you should...make a more, in-depth investigation?”

Ledger got a wicked idea. One he would spring on her later, assuming they ever did this again. Still, he took that as a cue to increase how fast he was pounding her, and tested the waters by drawing back a little quicker this time, and hammering back in a little faster as well.

She let out a happy squeal as she lay her head forward, getting a good grip on the desk so he wouldn’t buck her off of it. “Ah! I bet...you’re close, aren’t you~?”

“I could study for quite a while with you yet,” Ledger commented with a cheeky grin. Not that she could see it. “But perhaps after you finish your latest session, I will as well.”

The she looked behind her, her stunning eyes locking with his as she gave him a half-lidded stare.

“Oh, do you want to cum inside your Princess Mr. Ledger?”

“You have no idea,” the stallion said, his length giving a sympathetic twitch inside her. “But your pleasure comes before I do.”

“Ooh, just imagine,” she cooed. “Filling me up with that hot cum of yours, giving me... Every. Single. Drop~” Each word punctuated by a squeeze of her already tight pussy. Ledger moaned and leaned down, nipping at the scruff of her neck and the nerves located there unconsciously. He wanted to do that so badly...but he also wanted her to cum first!

“P-Pulsing...inside me,” she moaned. “Ahhnn~ g-go on Ledger, fill me...” She gave another deep moan as she came for a fourth time, gripping the desk so hard that it might break. He could feel her twitch around him, coating his already soaked member in her fluids, as some escaped, running down her legs and dripping onto the floor.

That was about when he gave the facsimile of Twilight exactly what she was begging for, filling the mare up with everything he had. His length pulsed as it gave her shot after shot of his load directly into her core, filling her with his essence. He gave off a wordless cry as a fantasy he didn’t know he had was fulfilled. ‘Twilight’ moaned loudly as he stuffed her full, he never failed to impress with the sheer amount he could produce, as she gave a low groan and sighed happily. He seemed to have really enjoyed this... Well, she was definitely going to do this again.

“Ahh, you...really like your princess huh?” she panted, twitching beneath him.

“Mmm...what Silver wouldn’t?” Ledger asked as he held himself there for a moment longer. Just one more, to make sure he was done, that nothing was spilling out. “I’m just lucky to have attracted your attention.”

“Mmm, why do you like me so much?” the lavender Alicorn asked him. Ledger took a moment to really think his answer through before he gave it.

“You got the way you are by lots of hard work, proving that you don’t need to be born an alicorn to be worthy of the title ‘Princess’. You probably know more things about Equestria and magic than I know about the Lands. Plus it doesn’t hurt that you’re pretty ordinarily, but downright cute when you’re flustered. And have you seen yourself in a mirror when you’re trying to be sexy?”

‘Twilight’ didn’t say anything... if fact, she was oddly quiet. And when Ledger lifted his head to wonder what was wrong... he found out.

Princess Twilight Sparkle, the real Twilight, was standing in the doorway, her eyes wide and her mouth hanging open.

“...This is exactly what it looks like?” Ledger offered weakly.

Twilight said nothing as she slowly closed the door, and the two soon heard a set of hooves running as fast as they could.

“Um, whoops?” Scope said with a sheepish grin.

“Iiiii think I’m bucked,” Ledger said softly. “...She’ll either avoid me forever, or only come back to say goodbye now…”

“Maybe,” Scope nodded. “Well... wanna go again?”

“The mood just died a violent death,” Ledger pointed out flatly. “Did you not notice?”

“A nymph can hope,” Scope sighed as she climbed down from the desk and resumed her true form, though her stomach looked a little bloated. “I don’t suppose you have a bathroom around here?”

“Just around the corner,” Ledger commented before reaching into a drawer where he kept cleaning supplies. He had a feeling something like this might happen, though he’d expected Midnight would be the one to do this first. “...Well, see you later I suppose.”

“Yeah, Middy should be home from the doctor’s by now. We should go and see her,” Scope said as she peeked outside then ducked out, waddling around the corner.

“I leave that decision entirely up to her,” Ledger softly said to himself. “She doesn’t need me pressuring her. Plus there’s still a few hours left in the day for things to go wrong...er, wrong-er.”

There was a blinding flash and Twilight teleported into the room, her face red with embarrassment and anger.

“You you had better believe that it can!” she yelled at him. “What-What the buck was that!?”

“Scope Lens taking your form in an effort to seduce me,” Ledger replied as he turned a page in the file on his desk. “Spoiler alert, it worked.”

“Well gee, I hadn’t noticed,” Twilight snarked. “It was hard to tell with you bucking me over a desk!”

“Did you not hear what I said when you came in? I’ll repeat it if I have to,” Ledger commented with a raised eyebrow.

“I heard that, and I’m flattered that you feel that way” she replied, her face going even redder. “That... that doesn’t excuse the fact that you did that!” Honestly, she had no idea how to process this.

It was Ledger’s turn to blush as he began to explain. “Well, I’m not going to deny what I did. Some part of me knew it was Scope and wasn’t exactly cheating on Midnight, Cider, or Scope. But the majority of me...was mighty tempted by the idea. You’re quite an attractive mare, miss Twilight. Especially to somebug that loves learning as much as a Silver.”

Twilight paused, her brilliant mind going to work to solve the problem she faced. It’d be easy, she’d faced ancient Alicorns, mad gods and Celestia-knows what else. This shouldn’t be a problem...

So why couldn’t she say anything!?

“Everything I’ve said, I’ve meant,” Ledger said. “And only now do I know why so many books in the Archives end the same way. ‘In the end, I would rather live life than spend so much time studying it. I accept it and its mysteries, rather than seek to understand them.’” He looked to the ceiling and sighed. “The love of even one other mare...fills that void within me. My drive to seek and know...is supplanted by my drive to see her happy.”

Twilight let out a long sigh. He was a hopelessly sweet stallion, but...she was still rather upset by what she saw. She now wondered if he’d done something like that before...

“I-I don’t, know how I’m supposed to respond to all this,” she finally spoke. “This is just so...weird? I don’t know. A part of me is flattered, another part wonders if I should teleport you into the sun. But... I guess I’ll listen to the flattered part this one time.”

“You have my thanks, and I’m sure Midnight’s and Cider’s as well,” Ledger said before looking at the princess. “I suppose I would be confused too, if I walked in on another drone using my form to sneak some affection from my herd.”

“I guess, it’s not that different to seeing some ponies dressed as Princess Celestia in certain...magazines,” she blushed heavily when she remembered seeing those for the first time.

Shining Armor had been so sad about having his bed set on fire...

“Just... maybe not do that again... where somepony might see?”

“I know better than to ask Scope not to do something,” Ledger said as he returned to his file. “Feel free to try asking her yourself if you want to try your luck and think she’d actually do it, though.”

“Yeah... think I’ll pass on that,” Twilight sighed. “So, today has been...confusing, and enlightening hmm?”

“Don’t tell me you haven’t noticed stallions looking at you like this before,” Ledger teased as he remembered a certain pegasus Guard in the frozen north. “From what I’m given to understand, you were a pretty mare even before your ascension.”

Twilight was going to pass out from how much she had blushed today. “Nopony... has ever noticed me like that before.”

In the Crystal Empire, Flash Sentry suddenly felt like he needed a drink…

“Well, now you know,” Ledger pointed out before flipping the page. “Under other circumstances, I would invite you around to dinner, but I think you need some ‘you time’ after having your worldview so drastically altered.”

“I survived changing species, though I suppose that isn’t a big deal for you hmm?” Twilight shook her head. “I still have to talk with Midnight, so...is that invitation still open?”

“If you’re willing to hang around until the end of the workday, I’ll escort you myself,” Ledger said as he closed the file and put it away. “If you’d rather take off until then, I’ll understand.”

“Well, I never made it back to my hotel,” Twilight sighed. This trip had already exhausted her and it was only mid afternoon. “Well, I could give you a hoof with that paperwork if you’d like?”

“Perfect!” Ledger said as his horn glowed, glad that his magic had recovered enough that he could perform one of his signature spells. “This’ll let me show you my filing spell! I always wanted expert review on it!”

“Oh?” she asked as she begun sorting some papers on his desk. “Well, let’s see then.”

And that was when the spell took hold and began filing his entire in-tray. Papers danced in the air, suspended by a silver glow as quills and inkpots joined in the ballet of paperwork. Lines were filled, signatures were signed, and figures were rapidly added. The system was, in a word, efficient.

“Interesting, a multi-tasking spell like this looks quite complex...” She watched as her horn scanned it, taking mental notes of the spell matrix setup and the amount of power put in it. “Hmm, I see... it has a small amount on independency as well.” She tapped her chin and nodded. “Okay, got it!”

Ledger couldn’t answer: the spell still needed a mind to provide the correct figures and signatures for it. His was the one that started the spell, so it used his. Twilight made a few notes as Scope walked back in, blinked twice and walked back out. She was so not touching that right now.

Eventually the spell ran out of things to do, and Ledger panted slightly as it ended and released him from its grasp. “So?” he asked. “What do you think of it?”

“It’s not bad, looks a little taxing though,” she nodded. “So, not useful in long spurts. But still, it’s efficient. Perhaps I’ll make use of it myself at some point.”

“It gets easier the more you’re used to it,” Ledger said as he recovered quickly enough to not be so exhausted in front of a princess. “I’m just out of practice.” She looked at one form as a quill floated over, and she begun to write his signature a few times on a piece of paper until it looked quite a lot like his. She then looked around as her horn flared and she replicated his spell, as the entire amount of his remaining work floated up and a half-dozen quills went to work.

After a monet or three, she was done and the files arranged themselves and vanished, a slight rustling in the filing cabinet signalling where they had gone.

“Hmm, it is a little draining,” she hummed. “Still, I think I can make use of this. It’s a good spell.”

“Thank you,” Ledger said with a slight bow of his head. “Me and the other Silver in the city are working on refining some of the trickier aspects to where it no longer needs a mind to draw off of...but thinks for itself.”

“That...could be a problem,” Twilight said with a small sweatdrop. She remembered enchanting a broom to sweep her tower periodically when she was younger.

It led to half the brooms in Canterlot waging a civil war against ponykind...

“So um...how was it?” she asked timidly.

“You’re going to have to be a bit more specific, your highness,” Ledger said. He was fairly sure which question she was asking, but he wanted to be completely sure before he made any assumptions. Or acted on them.

That was when he felt a pair of hooves around his neck as Scope draped herself across his shoulders.

“I bet she wants to know what it was like bending her over a desk and having your way with her?”

Twilight yelped, both from her sudden appearance and from embarrassment. But...she didn’t deny it. Ledger cocked an eyebrow at her and made a ‘go on’ motion with one hoof, reminding the mare she hadn’t exactly answered his request for her to be specific.

“She’s...not incorrect,” Twilight replied in a barely audible whisper.

“Ah, well, keep in mind I can only answer for my part of things, and we’re assuming she copied you in every aspect,” Ledger said before putting a hoof to his chin and thinking seriously. “I would have to say...that was the third best bucking I’ve had in a one-on-one session with a mare.”

Twilight’s brain fizzled out and then when it rebooted, he saw a side of the mare that nopony had seen before. She gave a wink and smiled. “Well, it was just a copy. So I guess it wouldn’t be accurate.”

“Levvy...did she just...?” Scope blinked. Flirty Twilight was...strangely arousing.

“I think she did,” Ledger replied. And then he gave a bit of clarification for the present mares. “Second was Scope here with a miscast accommodation spell - seriously tight, seriously hot, when she gets into it, things get steamy.”

“Um, okay?” Twilight blinked. She didn’t think he’d actually tell her the rest.

“Second best?” Scope said with an indignant huff as she poked the back of his head. Ledger nodded.

“First was Midnight and mine’s first night together like ‘that,’” he said with a smile. “Not just for the sex, but for the intimacy, the cuddling afterwards. It was the first time I felt...really loved.” He gave the lavender mare a smile. “I...might’ve been studying you while I was stuck here for a little while,” he admitted. “Might’ve developed a bit of an obsession with seeing you, the mare behind all the things I’ve read about. Thought I’d forgotten about it, but apparently not. The idea of doing...that, with you, earns that scenario a solid third.”

“I see,” Twilight was once again unsure if she should be flattered or not. She also had to take into account that he was a Changeling, and he might have different views and perspectives than a normal stallion.

And yet another question to add to the pile.

“Well, I guess I could ask you more about Changelings in general if you’re not busy,” she asked. This current subject was a little much to deal with right now.

“I think we can entertain you a while yet,” Ledger said with a wide smile.

“I bet you’d love to entertain the real Twilight,” Scope wiggled her eyebrows. Twilight ‘meeped’ and turned away so they couldn’t see her blush. Ledger shared a small laugh with Scope before he sat back behind his desk, moving the small nymph around to his front so he was hugging her from behind.

“Ask away and we’ll answer, your highness,” Ledger said, still with that wide smile. “No promises about the answers being innocent, though…”

“This is going to be informative and...rather trying on my sanity isn’t it?” Twilight sighed as she pulled out a massive tome from her saddlebags. “Okay, so I have just a few here. I had to leave the other seven volumes at home. But I memorized most of them~”

“...Seven?” Ledger meeped.

“I’m out,” Scope said and teleported away, leaving Ledger to his fate. Said stallion gulped. This had gone from something that would be rather fun to do to her, to something that would take forever for him.

Still, he was determined. For her sake if she intended to spend any amount of time around Midnight if nothing else. He was going to tease the princess, and she would learn how to tease him back, or he simply wouldn’t stop.

Hopefully, she’d thank him later.
