Preening Lessons

Chapter One: Instructed by the Night

Dear ~~Princess~~ Celestia.

I’m writing this letter to discuss with you a problem. I’m not sure why but my flying skills have been getting worse and worse over the last few months. While I’ve approached my dear friend, Fluttershy a few times about this issue, she simply blushes and changes the subject...

The library doesn’t have any books that seem to cover the problem. Is this normal for an alicorn? Should I make an appointment to see a doctor? Please let me know,

Your most faithful ~~student~~ friend,

Twilight Sparkle.

“Spiiike!” Twilight yelled down the stairs of her new castle. “I need you to send a letter to the princess, and quickly, please!”

“Sure thing, Twilight!” the little purple dragon yelled as he ran up the crystal staircase to Twilight. He grabbed the letter from her magic aura in a claw and lit it on fire with his flame. He smiled at her and popped a salute, “Need anything else from your number one assistant?”

“Is the new laboratory ready?” she asked.

“Yes, Princess Luna was so kind to stock up on everything.”

“P-P… Luna did it?” Twilight asked, eyes wide.

“Yeah, she was here this early this morning before sunrise. She wanted to talk to you but I told her that you were still asleep and I was to get your new laboratory going, she offered to help.”

“Is she still here?

“Nope, she left an hour ago.”

Twilight glared at him, “Did you two do everything on the checklist?”

Spike pulled on the scroll and let it unfold before him, “Yep, I even checked it after. We placed the beakers, cleaned the floor, unpacked the supplies, stored the hazardous materials, labeled everything that was stored away, labeled the spot where everything should go, labeled the spot where the labels should go so we can label the labels…” on and on it went, the little dragon read off everything Princess Luna and he did earlier that day. He felt really proud of himself until he got to the end. “... We labeled the label maker, and then....” he paused, a look of horror on his face.

Twilight groaned, “What?”

“We… uhh… I didn’t…” he rambled off.

“Didn’t what, SPIKE,” Twilight glared at him.

An explosion rocked the castle on its foundation. Twilight's eyes went wide as whatever Spike failed to do almost toppled the whole thing. “SPIKE!” she yelled.

“I’ll take care of it! Promise! Just leave it to me!” Spike yelled out as he ran down the stairs.

“How many times have I told you to double check the checklist!” Twilight yelled back.

“I’ll fix it!” Spike’s voice carried through the hallway. Twilight groaned, she didn’t know what had happened but she knew it was bad, she knew it would take all day for him to fix it, and she knew it completely destroyed her plans for that day. She had told all her friends she’d spend the day in the lab doing ‘boring egghead stuff’ according to Rainbow. Now? Now she had absolutely nothing to do.

“Well, I guess I can read the mysteries of amoebas, again!” Twilight thought out loud. She had only read that one twice, so that was like reading it for the first time! With a smile, she turned around and made her way back to her bedroom, ‘Maybe today won’t be such a waste after all’, she thought.

“Twilight! Letter for you!” she heard Spike yelling and was about to go down as he rushed up the stairs, coming to a stop right before her, breathing heavily. “There... you… go…” he turned around and ran back down stairs, getting back a mess that was even bigger than he thought it was.

“That was quick.” she said and unfolded the scroll.

Dear Twilight,

I thought that you write to me sooner or later about this little problem.

I’m afraid that I can’t help you with it, it just don’t seem appropriate for me to introduce you to the proper act of preening, since you are my former student. But I can give you a small advice. You can go to my sister, Princess Luna with that problem of yours. I’m pretty sure that she will be glad to help you.

Your ~~teacher~~ friend,

Celestia

“What? Preening? To Luna? I don’t get it.” Twilight mumbled. “Why can’t she teach it me? Why shouldn’t it be proper between Celestia and I?”

Twilight shook it off and made her way to her room. She’d write a letter to Princess Luna later, after she did her own bit of research on the subject. However, as soon as she stepped back inside her bedchamber she realized that ‘later’ was right now. She was not alone.

“Greetings, Princess Twilight,” Luna said with a welcoming smile.

“Princess Luna?” Twilight said with her mouth agape. The night princess had an aura to her, she never failed to inspire Twilight. The way she looked, the way her mane and tail flowed from her form, it was just… magical.

“Forgive me for intruding, I wanted to talk to you earlier, but you were not awake. When my sister got your letter I knew that now would be a good time. I hope you’re not too disappointed that she wanted me to teach you.”

“Disappointed?” Twilight's mind baulked at that; disappointed and Luna didn’t belong in the same sentence unless the former was used in the negative. “I’m not disappointed, Princess. However, I’m afraid I don’t even know what preening is. I wanted to do a little more research before writing you…”

“I know you don’t know what it is but your body does,” Luna smiled as she hopped off the bed and started to walk over to the lavender princess. “That’s why I was here earlier, lately your needs have been protruding into your dreams, haven’t they?”

Twilight’s cheeks turned pink at that, her dreams had been getting slightly more… un-Twilight-like as of lately. “You know about that?”

“Don’t worry about it, as the Princess of the Night it is my duty to walk in dreams, believe me, I’ve seen it all before. You have nothing to be ashamed of.”

“What does that have to do with preening? Should I be taking notes?”

Luna chuckled, “I could tell you, but as every pegasus learns, this is more of a hoof-on experience. Why don’t I show you instead?”

“Should i just ask Rainbow Dash for help, I mean I know you have to be tired.”

“Trust me, Twilight. While she might be able to help you, few can match my experience,” Luna said with a sly wink as she walked back to the bed and gestured for Twilight to get on.

Hesitantly, the purple alicorn followed. She hopped on the bed and looked back. “Please spread your right wing first.” Luna said, Twilight did as she was asked. “Now, this may cause you to feel really good, it’s normal, just stay relaxed.” Luna said as she moved her muzzle down to the primary feathers on Twilight’s wing.

As soon as her muzzle touched them, the lavender alicorn squealed and her other wing snapped open while she looked on in shock at Luna. “What in the wide....” she stopped as she saw the lovely expression on the face of the dark blue alicorn.

Twilight never experienced such feelings before. If it wasn’t for Celestia or her friends, she wouldn’t even know about friendship. This… this was beyond that, this was something new. The lavender alicorn never ‘experimented’, never tried to get a date, nor had she tried to touch herself, ever.

“I know from your dreams that this is new. Let me be the first to introduce you properly to these feelings.” Luna said softly before diving back into Twilight’s feathers. She powered up her horn and with a light touch of magic began to massage the muscles between Twilight's wings.

“Luna-aaah, what are you doing… this… this feels good. Why does this feel so good?” Twilight softly moaned even from that light touch.

Luna giggled softly and leaned forward. “Well… preening is an intimate act between pegasi and even alicorns. They only let their closest family or lovers do this because it can make you feel really, really good...” she cooed into Twilight’s ear.

Twilight shivered at those words. Was Luna family to her? A lover, what would that even mean? The thought at the latter one made her feel surprisingly warm.

“Don’t fear, dear Twilight. I will show you everything about it, without any second thoughts. Well, without too much, that is.” Luna whispered softly before continuing her work.

Twilight cooed in surprise as the alicorn’s tongue went back to work. Luna reached in and softly ran the tip of her tongue over the base of Twilight’s wing, right below where each and every quill connected to her wing’s bridge.

In that one go, she stimulated every nerve cluster under Twilight’s wing, causing her young charge to moan in pleasure she hadn’t even read about before. Twilight’s hind legs shot out and her pleasurable moan was music to Luna’s ears. “Just for today, young Twilight, don’t think about it, just let your body react naturally.”

“I… I… I…” Twilight was lost at that, she never-not thought about things.

“Just consider this a test, and that is your one and only instruction,” Luna said with a smile.

“But… I love learning new things! How can I learn new things without thinking, questioning, studying, or even writing it down?” Twilight asked. “How can I- aaaahhhh sweet Luna!” Twilight’s last question turned into a moan as Luna bit softly into the base of her left wing.

“Twilight, there isn’t anything to think about, nothing to ask, nothing to study, and definitely nothing to write down. You have to feel it and experience it.” Luna said softly as her experienced muzzle ran through Twilight’s primaries, putting them all in order.

She did all that and more, she hit every feather, teased every nerve cluster. Twilight answered her ministrations with small moans, heavy breaths, and squeals that would even make her sister-in-law blush.

“Luna…” Twilight’s voice was strong and confident now. “Is this some form of cunnilingus?”

Luna stopped, her eyes went wide for a second before continuing. “Well, if you count the stimulation as some sort, you could say, yes. But this is not like the real act.”

“W-Would you show me that too?” came a whisper and Luna nearly crashed off the bed.

“What was that?” Luna asked, slightly confused.

“W-well…” Twilight was shaking now and Luna could almost see the grip fear had on her. “Wouldyoushowmetherealacttoo?” the lavender alicorn blurred out.

“Twilight, again please. And slower this time.” Luna smiled her warmest smile.

“Would you show me the real act too? Please?” Twilight asked, slowly speaking every word before wincing and curling herself to a ball. “Please don’t hate me!”

Luna caught herself upon seeing a small tear running down from Twilight’s eye. Without thinking, she unfolded her own wings and wrapped the lavender alicorn deeply into them. “Twilight, I don’t hate you. You’re feeling all of this for the very first time, so it’s just natural for you to be interested in it. If you really want, I will show you everything. If you want, even love,” the last sentence was barely a whisper, but Twilight had heard it.

“Love? I once read about it on one of Rarity’s novels, but I don’t know much about it. In fact, most of it I know by Cadance telling me about it.” Twilight said, sheepishly looking at the ground.

“Love is a special feeling, Twilight. It’s something that can even stand over friendship, it’s a feeling for somepony you really, really like.” Luna smiled softly before a blush covered her face. “Twilight, I would say that I really like you…”

“I really, really like you too,” Twilight said as she was held in Luna’s wings and immediately knew that it was true. She felt protected and a warmth spread through her body that was unknown to her. She never wanted Luna to let go. “Do you really want to teach me such an… act?” Twilight added, rubbing her coat against the soft feathers.

The dark alicorn almost laughed, almost. “I wouldn’t be much of a teacher if I said no to teaching you everything.” she sat the alicorn on her side and powered her horn. Luna ran a small trail of magical energy down Twilight’s back, in part to relax her, in part to get her into the right position. Twilight’s body responded in a way her mind would not. Although she stayed curled up, the muscles that Luna was about to know intimately relaxed.

Luna lay down next to Twilight, this required a slightly different position than preening so she lay with her stomach near Twilight's head and her head near the sweet spot.

“Luna...w-what are you doing?” Twilight asked, her voice growing nervous.

“I’m showing you the real act Twilight. As this is your first time I want your allowance.” Luna snuggled closer, her breath tingling slightly under Twilight’s stomach.

“Allowance? For what exactly? I don’t understand. Sorry!” Twilight squeaked and shivered.

Luna changed her position again and stared directly into Twilight’s eyes. “Twilight? Do you want to have sex… with me?”

Twilight blushed furiously. Never did she imagine that Luna would ask her something like that. She knew it was the act of cunnilingus, she had read the word in some of the novels too. Somehow, the question felt right to her as she lost herself in Luna’s beautiful eyes.

“Yes… I would love that, Luna.” she answered softly.

Before she could do anything else, Luna leaned over and closed the gap between them, pressing her lips on Twilight’s. The lavender alicorn gasped at first, but her body knew what to do. She leaned in by instinct, enjoying the pleasing warmth that spread through her body at the kiss. After what seemed like hours, Luna broke apart from Twilight's lips, and left them both breathing heavily.

Twilight looked with delight as Luna switched back and she was greeted with her stomach again. Curious, she looked at the precious part of fur in front of her, decorated with a small belly button. Just out of intention, Twilight leaned in and softly kissed Luna’s belly, drawing giggles from the dark-blue alicorn.

“That tickles Twilight. But it feels good.” Luna giggled and cooed, trying to concentrate on her prize, directly located between Twilight’s hind legs.

Just as Twilight tried to draw licks over Luna’s stomach, she felt the hot breath of the lunar princess directly between her hind legs and it drove her crazy. Just the soft touch of breath stimulated her.

“Oh, Luna!” Twilight softly moaned and held herself to the dark-blue princess.

Luna smiled and softly nuzzled Twilight’s marehood, drawing whimpers from her. Slowly, she pushed forward and took a long lick over the already wet area, she was granted a long moan in response. Before anything else could be done or said she began to lick Twilight’s snatch with enthusiasm, adding kisses from time to time, and burying herself into the soft pink wet place that was surrounded by purple fur.

Twilight wasn’t even aware of it but she was opening up to the lunar princess. Her folds became engorged as they respond to Luna’s lightest of touches. Her pink slit split apart ever so slightly. The action allowed Luna’s experienced tongue further entry into her deepest places.

Twilight lost herself in the pleasure, with every lick, with every gentle touch of Luna’s lips, the mare relaxed that much further. She stretched out her front hooves in a sigh of ecstasy as Luna’s tongue flicked her clit.

Her eyes shot open when she touched something. Her hoof was right between Luna’s teats. They were two mounds of soft dark-blue fur right above Luna’s honey bucket. She gasped as she saw the alicorn’s nipples sticking out.

She was afraid that her touch would offend the princess. When it didn’t get a reply, she grew slightly more daring and gently placed a hoof on them. Luna noticed but paid it no mind.

Twilight took this as permission to continue. She stretched out her other hoof and lightly massaged one of the mounds. Her mind noted the softness, the texture, and the gentle way they responded to her touch.

She had never thought about such things before, they were always simply there, and the only purposed they served was to produce milk for foals.

‘What is that like?’ as soon as the thought entered her head it became everything to her. ‘Luna said to let my body respond naturally’, she justified. Reaching her head out, she latched her lips onto one nipple and started suckling like a newborn.

Luna’s head shot up at that with a long moan. She looked down to see Twilight attached to her teats. With a smile, she cast a quick spell and went back to work.

Twilight almost choked when a small spray of milk entered her mouth. Almost. The fluid was warm and inviting. The milk hit her taste buds and stimulated them like she had never known before, well… not since she was a baby anyway. All she knew for sure was that she wanted more.

“Twilight, my dear,” Luna said with a wince. The lavender alicorn looked up at her, afraid that she might be told to stop, “They’re very sensitive, Watch the teeth.”

“Oh, sorry.” Twilight said with a blush as she dove back onto the tit. She did better this time, keeping her teeth back and simply gaining more and more of the lovely milk. She even discovered that if she used her hooves at the same time it would cause the flow to come that much faster. Much like a newborn foal would, she kneaded and suckled all at the same time. Luna’s tongue work even caused her first miniature orgasm, but so tasty was the milk that she did not stop.

All too soon the well was dry. Twilight whimpered as she looked up at the night princess. She had tried the other teat, but Luna had cast the spell on just one. “Luna… would you?” she blushed furiously.

“I could, but there is another spell I’d like to try. Another way for you to get ‘milk’.” Luna seductively winked.

The perkiness Twilight displayed told Luna her answer. Luna smiled one last time before powering up her horn. “There, it’s done.”

Twilight looked back, shocked at what she saw. Where before there were just two soft mounds full of the most delicious milk she ever had, now there was something else, something new. A long piece of meat in a cylinder shape hung off Luna’s frame between her tits. It almost reached up to her forward legs. “Luna?” Twilight said, shocked, “What…”

“That,” the Princess of the Night started to say, “Is where stallions give off their milk.”

‘She said to follow my instincts,’ Twilight thought again. Reaching out, she gingerly moved Luna’s meat, giving it a small sniff as she did so.

The smell wasn’t pleasant, but it wasn’t bad either. She decided to continue and lightly moved, touched it with her hooves. The touch cased a small amount of fluid to leak from the tip along with a soft coo from Luna’s mouth. ‘Is that the milk?’ Twilight thought.

She took a small lick. Her tongue stuck out of her mouth ever so slightly. She lightly tapped the tip of Luna’s cock, pulling back in surprise as the taste hit her mouth. It was slightly salty with just the smallest hint of morning dew.

Smacking her lips together, she rolled it around in her mouth, enjoying the flavor. To Twilight’s infinite delight more of Luna’s milk started coming out. This time there was no hesitation. The young alicorn cleaned off the tip in a single lick and enjoyed every second of it.

Luna just smiled, “Just like the nipples, it helps to provide a little suction, also your tongue helps generate production.”

Twilight took her meaning immediately. She didn’t even care that Luna had stopped her own ministrations. The young alicorn wrapped her lips around the meat and started to suck.

“Not literally, Twilight.” Luna moaned softly.

“Oh, sorry.” Twilight said as she went back to work. This time she caught on, bobbing her head up and down as her tongue went to work. She slowly ran her tongue around the head, up and down the shaft as her lips formed a seal. Luna answered with louder growing moans.

To her surprise it seemed as if the more wet she made it, the more milk it produced. Almost as if producing milk was its way of saying you’re doing a good job. The more she tested the theory the more it proved true, although she could only go so far down the shaft.

Luna saw this issue almost immediately, “You have to relax, open yourself up to it as if you’re taking a big drink of water. Let it happen naturally.”

Twilight took her words to heart and started to move a little further down with each and every bob of her head. She opened the back of her throat and found, much to both of their delights, that she could in fact take more.

She managed half of the horse cock before Luna spoke with a loud groan, “It’s about to happen, don’t push down anymore, just use your tongue.”

Responding the way any good student would, Twilight pulled back a little but kept licking, “When it comes, it’ll happen in shots, and it won’t stop until it’s done, be ready.”

She quickly understood what Luna had just said when the first shot hit the top of her mouth. It was just like the milk before but much thicker and with more flavor. She moaned as she caught another and another shot. She swallowed what she could and pushing the rest to her cheeks.

Luna’s cock popped out of Twilight's mouth when the last of it was done. She looked up at the night princess to see a look of content on her face. Luna smiled back at her, “How was that milk?”

“Tasty!” Twilight replied as she licked her lips.

“Let’s see about that,” Luna said then reached in for a kiss. The action shocked the lavender alicorn as Luna’s tongue forced entry into her mouth.

She felt the princess greedily lick the inside of her mouth, stealing all the last remains of the milk for herself. Twilight fought back, surprised to feel Luna matching her in an epic battle of tongues.

When the night princess pulled back, There was a long line of saliva and cum connecting their mouths. “Luna?” Twilight asked. “That wasn’t milk, was it?”

“No,” Luna smiled as she tasted her own cum, enjoying the unique flavor.

“Still, I wanna do that again.” Twilight said with a smile. Luna had been right, she just followed her instincts and did what her body wanted her to do. And with Luna, it felt great.

“In time, I think you’re more than ready,” The Princess of the Night said as she looked down at her student’s soaking wet nethers.

“Ready for what?”

Luna just smiled as she went in for another kiss, this time she applied more force to it, forcing the smaller alicorn onto her back as she moved her body to match Twilight's. When she was directly over the young alicorn she pulled her lips off and grinned. “For this, young Twilight. Please try to relax as much as possible and don’t be afraid.”

Twilight gasped as she felt it, Luna’s tongue had opened her up in a way that she had never dreamed of, her cock took that to the power of ten. It both forced her open and filled her up at the same time. Luna only had her tip in but Twilight already wanted more, even though there was a small addition of pain now.

It was an itch Twilight had never known about, an itch she had never scratched before. A moan escaped her lips as Luna pushed slowly, her appendage making it’s way into a new home. Twilight's love canal welcomed it like a long lost friend.

Luna leaned down and kissed her as she continued to push. Twilight’s brain was lost in the dual sensations of luna’s cock and the tongue invading her mouth. However, the Princess of the Night was not done. She reached a feather over and lightly placed it on Twilight's very outstretched, very sensitive wings. Running the tip of them up and down the most sensitive parts.

She had to stop pushing when Twilight’s pussy became a vice on her member. She could feel the smaller princess gripping and squeezing her for all she was worth. Her lavender body was overcome in small tremors as yet another orgasm overtook her, causing her to squeal and shudder as her body lightly shook from so much pleasure.

The night princess simply let her ride it out until Twilight opened her eyes again. A look of pure satisfaction looked up at her before Twilight realized something important. Luna was still inside of her. “Princess Luna?”

“We haven’t even started yet, Twilight.” Luna smiled before pushing farther in.

Twilight gasped as Luna’s throbbing stick pushed deeper, filling her more and more. Despite her recent orgasm she already felt her body was ready for more, and she definitely wanted more.

That was a need that Luna was all too willing to provide. She caught onto the unspoken signals that Twilight was giving her and pushed a little further. ‘Two thirds in, impressive.’ she thought with a smile.

Luna only stopped when a look of pain shot up from Twilight's face. She paused and pulled out slightly, surprised when she felt herself surrounded by a magical aura. “How much more?” Twilight asked without looking directly at her.

“I’m about eighty percent in,” Luna admitted, knowing that Twilight loved proper numbers.

With a gasp she felt the aura slam her forward. Twilight almost screamed as she hilted Luna’s penius in one swift motion. “Twilight!” Luna yelled.

“I’m… I’m ok, just… give me a minute.” The alicorn took several deep breaths. Luna kissed her lightly on the cheek.

“You’ve done great for your first time. Most mares can’t take all of it.”

“Most? There are others?”

“A few, I’ve taught several pegasi how to ‘preen’, but that was long ago, before you were born.”

Twilight smiled back before she lightly shook her hips. There was next to no pain anymore, just a fullness that filled her in a way she had never known before. She looked down her stomach to see it slightly stretched from the large invading body. Running a hoof down, she gasped as the extra pressure made her feel that much better. “I… I think I’m ready.”

“I’ll start off slow,” Luna said as she pulled out ever so slightly, not enough but sufficient to cause the expected reaction from Twilight.

The lavender mare whimpered and wrapped her hind legs around Luna, pulling her back in just as Luna pulled slowly outwards. At least, Luna tried pulling out. Forced by Twilight’s hind legs she was pushed in with much more force than she intended, making Twilight cry out in pain and pleasure, but mostly just pain.

“Twilight, trust me,” Luna softly whispered in Twilight’s ear. There were tears in the young mare’s eyes, but she nodded in understanding.

Slowly, Luna pulled out, taking each and every inch seconds a time. Part of her was afraid that Twilight might push her back in. She wanted to be ready for such an event. When that did not happen, she brought herself back in just as slowly as she went out.

Twilight's eyes practically rolled back in her head. this was nothing like before, this was slow, with every inch of Luna’s shaft rubbing against her insides. She felt the friction and the pure, unadulterated pleasure as the lunar mare made her moan in desire.

Seeing the look on her lover’s face, Luna knew she was ready. With each pull back she went out that much farther, with each thrust forward she went back in that much deeper. It wasn’t long before she pulled almost all the way out, only the tip of her head stayed in the lavender alicorn.

With one quick push, she hilted herself in Twilight’s wet snatch. Unlike last time when Twilight forced the night princess to do it, this time there was nothing but pleasure. Twilight screamed out as a wave of ecstasy washed over her, it was like a giant title wave bursting against her mind, flooding her senses with new experiences that she had never considered possible before.

There was one thing Twilight did not count on, this time Luna did not stop.

The dark-blue princess only sped up, even as she felt Twilight's walls clamp down upon her member she pushed through it, pushing faster, harder, longer, and deeper with each and every thrust. The room soon echoed with the sound of their bodies colliding together in carnal ecstasy.

This was fuel tossed on a burning fire. Twilight’s mind was a burning, out of control forest fire of pleasure. Each push in just stoked the fire more and more, causing it to build up even higher as Luna extended her orgasm.

Just when it was about to die down, Luna let loose the walls holding back her own pleasure. The night princess had trained herself to withhold pleasure and release it when she deemed was the appropriate time. With one last push in, the tip of Luna’s head exploded in Twilight’s snatch. She released wave and wave of hot cum directly into Twilight's womb, coating it with a layer of white.

That was it for Twilight, the feeling of the princess cumming in her was simply icing on a very sweet, very tall cake. She passed out, overcome with pleasure.

***

Twilight awoke and rubbed her eyes before looking out of the window. It was already dark out. To her surprise the Princess of the Night was gone, however, there was a note left on her nightstand.

Dearest Twilight.

I hope you enjoyed the preening session. Sorry I wasn’t there when you woke up, duty calls and you were sleeping so peacefully. I’ve included instructions on the spells I used, both of them. There is still a lot to learn about the proper way to preen your wings, but nopony can cover everything in one go. While I’ve enjoyed my time with you, I don’t want you to simply be with me because I was your first. Explore these new sensations, Twilight.

I’m sure if you asked, you friends would love to show you some of their ‘tips’.

And as always, you can always write to me if you need another… personal… lesson.

Your ~~Princess of the Night~~ Lunar lover,

~~Princess~~ Luna

PS. I look forward to your dreams and more letters. If you do want to read up more, check out the mature section of the library.

PPS. Don’t be too hard on Spike, it was my doing that the laboratory exploded. I needed something to keep him busy while we had our personal lesson.

Twilight smiled at that. She was sure that she would write a letter as soon as possible. And not only because of the sensation of their lessons, but also because she wanted to study the tingly and warming feeling in her that overcame her at the sight and thought of the lunar princess.
