Twilight waited patiently in the top floor of her palace. She glanced at the clock. Princess Luna was late. She sighed a bit annoyed at the princeliness's tardiness. Fluttershy cautiously peeked her head into the room.

“Is she here yet?” she asked nervously.

“Not yet,” Twilight said exasperated. “I don’t know what’s taking her so long.”

“She’s only to minutes late Twilight calm down.”

“But I wanted to spend the weekend with you.”

“What’s two minutes out of the whole weekend?”

“I guess you have a point.” Their conversation was interrupted by a thud as Princess Luna hurriedly landed on the balcony outside. Fluttershy quickly left the room as Luna entered.

“Good evening Twilight Sparkle I assume you’ve called me to give your report.”

“Yes princess.”

“Good to hear what did you find?”

“Well the book you gave me seemed to be about mind control spells, pretty old ones too if the dates are right.”

“Do clarify,”

“Well, and I’ve only done a few small experiments with this, the spells are all variations on the same thing. The caster binds someone else to their will. The subject is then magically compelled to do what the caster says. It can also be self-cast in which case the caster bind themselves to someone else’s whim. For the spell to work properly the subject has to at least semi sentient it doesn’t seem to affect wild animals. The spell manifests itself through a physical object. A collar appears around the neck of the affected subject and a small ring forms around the front hoof of subject in control,” At this point Twilight gestured to two mannequins that had representations of the collar and ring on them. “As with all magics this magic is affected by the desires of the caster. This manifests itself most when the spell is self-cast. The one in control may treat the controlled differently based off of internal desires.” Princess Luna was impressed with Twilight’s thoroughness.

“Is there any way to stop the spell?” Princess Luna asked.

“Not traditionally,” Twilight continued. “It’s my opinion that the authors of the spell saw no reason to ever release those affected by it from control so they never wrote a counter spell. That being said, if you find a way to remove the collar or ring from either party the spell breaks apart, but that’s rather difficult as both parties are compelled to keep them on. In my research my friends did manage to find a potion that when rubbed on the collar makes in malleable and compels the wearer to take it off.”

“Does that work?”

“It’s rather violent, but yes it does work.”

“Well it seems you have a grasp of what these spells do. Do you have any recommendations for their functional use?”

“Not really,” Twilight answered honestly. “It might be slightly useful for some sort of mental therapies, or to enforce community service, but in all honesty there isn’t much good these spells can do.”

“Yes I’ll have to agree with you there Twilight. That’s the gamble you run with dark magic of course sometimes you find some spells that have no practical use at all. Thanks for your help anyway Twilight Sparkle as always it’s a pleasure to see you again.”

“It’s nice to see you too princess.” Princess Luna stepped on to the balcony and was prepared to take off but noticed the collar on Twilight’s neck.

“Oh if you don’t mind me asking what’s that?” the princess asked gesturing to Twilight’s collar.

“Oh this is nothing,” Twilight said embarrassed. “It’s just something my special somepony made for me,” Twilight finished her prepared response to that question.

“Special somepony do tell,” Princess Luna asked intrigued.

“I don’t know if I should.”

“Oh come on you know I’ll find out about it later.” Twilight glared at Luna. Fluttershy peeked her head into the room again.

“Did it go well Twilight,” Fluttershy asked quietly.

“Yes it went quite well,” Princess Luna answered. “I think we were just talking about you actually.”

“You were?” Fluttershy asked.

“Yes Luna was just telling me how we were dating,” Twilight answered placing her hood over Fluttershy.

“Don’t you mean you were telling her?”

“No I don’t,” Princess Luan giggled quietly to herself at Twilight’s remark.

“I was just asking your friend here about her new neck accessory,” Princess Luna clarified. “She told me you made it for her.”

“Oh well not really,” Flutterhsy answered. “It’s just something we picked to sort of symbolize our relationship.”

“Well good for you two. I was beginning to wonder if it was part of this whole ‘foal at heart’ dress line your other friend is making.”

“Oh no it’s not, but we do have a few of those. It’s amazing how quickly they took off.”

“Yes it truly is. I'm sure they will be all the rage at the gala this year. Well I must be going as always it is good to see you Twilight and good to see you new girlfriend.”

“I think it’s more accurate to say Twilight is my girlfriend,” Fluttershy clarified. Twilight giggled and looked at Fluttershy lovingly.

“I don’t understand the difference.”

“Don’t worry about it Princess,” Twilight said happily. “Thanks for stopping by.” With that Princess Luna shot off of Twilight’s balcony and made her way back to Canterlot. “Well now that we’re all alone,” Twilight said seductively.

“Not until your diaper is on young lady,” Fluttershy said sternly.

“Yes ma’am,” Twilight said enthusiastically as her and Fluttershy moved over to their favorite room.
