( PART ONE )
Dear Princess Celestia,
I was wondering... have you ever been in love before? I... I think I may have fallen in love, but um... well... do you remember that alien that you medicated back to life last year? The one that fell into your room? Um... THAT'S the person that I may have fallen in love with.
But the strange part is that I... well... please don't tell anypony else this, but... I'm attracted to mares, though! Don't get me wrong, there's plenty of good looking stallions, and all that! It's just that... well... they don't attract me in the same ways that one of my friends do.
Pinkie Pie... I feel like I may be falling for HER as well! I mean, the way how she smiles all the time, the way how she helps those in need to the best of her abilities... her hyperactive personality... what's NOT to love about her?! The only thing is... well, I'm not entirely sure about her sexuality! And what would she say to me if I confess my feelings to her, and she rejects me because of her sexuality?!
And then there's him... the way how he stands up to those who treat my friends and I wrong... the way how he uses those strange "human words" when he stubs his toe or bumps his head... the way how he scratches behind our ears when we least expect it... even the way how he sometimes leaves a mess after eating... it drives me crazy! But... why does it drive me crazy in a DIFFERENT way, though?!
Technically, he isn't even a stallion, so... does this still mean that I'm a lespony?
I know I should probably be writing this to Cadence, but... well, after her wedding to Shining Armor last month, I feel like the two of them would be a little too... occupied at this time to worry about my love life.
I eagerly await your quick response.
Your Faithful Student,
Twilight Sparkle
My Dearest, Most Faithful Student, Twilight Sparkle,
While it is true that I would usually recommend writing these kinds of things to Princess Cadence, I can understand why you chose not to in this case.
I would like to start off by saying that I'm very proud of you for realizing your feelings, and thankful that you've chosen me to help you endure them.
While it may not be a method that's been used in centuries, I do have A solution that could help you in your predicament... but I will need the approval of all three of you, if I am to let it pass.
Have you tried forming a "Herd"?
I happily await your response.
Your Proud Teacher,
Princess Celestia
~PS: No, loving a non-stallion and a mare doesn't make you a lespony. It still makes you bisexual, seeing how you're attracted to both, a MALE and a FEMALE... which I do not judge you for... and neither should your friends or family. Remember that no matter who you have feelings for, we all still love and care about you just the way you are.
Dear Princess Celestia,
I... I can't believe this is actually happening! They said yes!
Apparently, Pinkie Pie was also having the same kinds of feelings that I was having... including the feelings for our human friend! She even proved her point by kissing me on the lips... THEN proceeding to him, and kissing him on the lips as well!
I have to admit, I'm... glad that nopony was standing behind me, because of how wet that made my... oh, sorry! Too much information!
But yeah... they agreed to it! And while our human might've been a little reluctant at first, when Pinkie and I gave him "the face" as he calls it, he finally agreed to "give it a shot"... another human term, I guess.
Thank you again, Princess Celestia! If you didn't tell me to give this whole "Herd" thing a try, I doubt if we would even be living together!
Oh, yeah... and Pinkie Pie now lives in the library with me and him... it's almost like a dream come true!
Thank you, Princess Celestia... just... thank you.
Your Eternally Grateful Student,
Twilight Sparkle
Our Dearest Twilight Sparkle,
We are coming to meet him.
Why haven't you told your father and I about this?! Why haven't you spoken with Princess Cadence, or Shining Armor about it, either?! We thought we've raised you better than that!
Listen... we understand how excited you must be feeling right now. We want to be excited for you as well, but... since we don't know anything about him, we have no choice but to delay your wedding until we approve of him, first!
What if he were a family rival, anyways?! Or a disrespectful peasant?! We shall not have you running off with a stallion that doesn't treat you with the proper respect that you deserve!
Makers' sake, Twilight! You're Princess Celestia's faithful student! Has she been informed of this, yet?! And what about Spike? Where will he be staying once you've moved in with this stallion?
Please do understand our concerns, Twilight... it is for your own good that we at least see who this mysterious stallion is, and know that he will not harm you, or cause you to harm yourself... and who knows? Perhaps we are overreacting, and maybe he is a kind stallion who deserves you... but we need to know who he is, first-hoof.
Expect us in about an hour, and be prepared for a long talk, young lady.
Your Concerned Parents,
Twilight Velvet & Night Light
PS: Ensure that he doesn't take advantage of you in your Estrus Period! Regardless of our approval or not, we shall not have him deflower you without being married, first!
I was sitting casually on the sofa, reading a book with my left hand while Pinkie Pie was snuggled comfortably underneath my right arm. Her gently snores were nothing short of adorable... and to think, I was dropped into this world, thinking I would never be able to make it this far.
My concentration was broken when Twilight magically "popped" into existence in front of us with a scroll almost completely attached to her face. She constantly paced herself back and forth, meaning that she was obviously upset about something. Concernedly, I lowered the book, looked up at the nervous mare, and asked, "Um... Twilight? You okay?"
"This is bad, this is bad, this is really really BAD..." she murmured to herself.
I looked down and noticed Pinkie Pie was stirring from her sleep. She looked up at me and gave me one of her different kinds of smiles, compared to how she usually does. How different, you might ask? Let's just say that even a heart of stone would melt by merely looking at it.
Imagine Pinkie Pie with her eyes half-lidded, due to her just waking up. Her mane is a little more puffier than it usually is... and then, strap an ordinary-sized smile onto her face, as opposed to the toothy grin that everyone else would see her with. Now, imagine her face being just below your chest, as she stares up at you with that gaze. Finally, start looking for something to prevent yourself from having a heart-attack out of pure adorableness.
I shrugged my shoulders, but couldn't muster up a serious face due to her expression, before motioning my head towards Twilight. Pinkie followed my gaze before nodding her head at me in understanding and slowly crawling her way off of the couch, and towards Twilight.
With Twilight moving closer to the area directly in front of me (in-between the sofa and the fireplace), Pinkie approached her from behind, keeping up with her pace with surprisingly accurate precision, despite her just waking up. Finally, when Twilight turned around again, Pinkie gave her the same gaze she just gave me, causing Twilight's movement to halt at once, and her cheeks to glow bright red.
Finally, without warning, Pinkie leaned forward and gently, yet firmly, locked her lips onto Twilight's. Twilight's startled yelp soon became a pleasured moan as their mouths opened up, giving me a quick glance of Pinkie's tongue wrapping around Twilight's and entering her mouth. Even with their tongues covered from their lips, it was clear to me that their tongues were dancing inside Twilight's mouth, with Pinkie's clearly showing the most signs of dominance.
I, of course, was unable to say anything at the time... but I would be lying if I said I didn't enjoy the view.
Furthermore, in as modest of words as I could muster up, the South Pole might've been rising a little bit closer to the north... and had I not been wearing pants, I was certain I could've pitched a boxer-sized tent without using my hands! Unfortunately, though, it wasn't meant to be, as Pinkie slowly broke the kiss... but the trail of saliva connected between their tongues didn't make the South Pole's trip back home any faster... might've delayed it even more, actually.
"W-wha?" Twilight could only whisper before Pinkie giggled and lightly bopped her nose with a hoof. This made Twilight cross her eyes and wriggle her snout a little as she stared at the spot where she was tapped. It makes me think that, apparently, the ponies of this world must have sensitive snouts... either that, or Twilight does, at least.
"Silly Twilight. You're worrying too much! What's the matter?" she asked innocently, almost as if what just happened never happened.
Twilight sighed before levitating the letter in front of Pinkie Pie. I took this as my cue to walk up to them and see what the commotion was about, as well.
"It's my parents! They want me to introduce them to the stallion that I'm marrying." she stated. I could sense the fear in her tone and gently smiled before scratching behind her ear. Like usual, it does the trick in calming her a little more. Pinkie Pie gave me a pleading look, which made me sigh and use my other hand to scratch behind her ear, winning a giggle from her.
"It's alright, Twi. I'm sure your parents will understand."
She tore from my grasp and trotted towards the sofa. Plopping down on her back, she groaned and rolled her eyes. "It's not that easy, though! I mean, I... well, I didn't even tell them that I'm bisexual, yet! And what's more, they're traditional Canterlot Nobles! Do you realize what that means?!"
Pinkie and I sat on the sofa next to her, Pinkie on her right side and myself on her left. We both gently patted her on the shoulders while she continued to stare at the fireplace nervously.
"I'm pretty sure I could guess it right." I finally said to her with a confident smile.
She sighed before looking between Pinkie and I. "The way how they wrote the word 'stallion' makes it clear that they expect me to be with a single stallion... and since they're Traditional, that means that he has to be a unicorn, like the rest of them!"
I tilted my head confusedly. "Spike isn't a unicorn, though."
Pinkie giggled and nodded her head. "Yeah! And I may not be a unicorn stallion, but I'm still a pony!" She then pointed at me and added, "Plus, he may not be a pony, but he's still a stallion of his own race!"
I raised my hand at her and correct, "Actually, it's just 'man'..." they both deadpanned at me, which made me gulp nervously, "...but eh, it's the equivalent of that in this world, I suppose."
Twilight sighed before placing her face in her forehooves. "I understand that, but Spike was hatched, and told to live under my care by Princess Celestia! They didn't have a say in that!"
I rubbed my chin in thought before smiling smugly. "Well, then... technically that would be the same scenario for me, right?"
Twilight looked up at me confusedly. "Not really, because Princess Celestia didn't send you to live with me... you chose to do so voluntarily!"
I shrugged my shoulders before replying, "Eh, but I'm sure we could say that, since Princess Celestia approved of it, it still counts for something... right?"
Twilight turned to Pinkie and looked at her uneasily. "Y-yeah... but what about you, Pinkie? If they accept him, then how will they accept you as well?"
Pinkie giggled again before gently bopping Twilight's nose once more. "Silly Twilight! My parents own one of the most highly valued Rock Farms in all of Equestria! Our Rock Candy is shipped to almost every candy store in almost every town, and we receive about ten percent of the income with each and every purchase! Then there's the Rock Syrup portion of our farm, where we sell Rock Syrup to almost every bakery that sells waffles, pancakes, and anything else that syrup could be used for!"
Both Twilight and I stared at Pinkie in slight disbelief. (Honestly, when the hell did she swap IQ levels with Twilight?! That one statement sounded twenty times smarter than I am!)
Pinkie giggled before replying, "Oh, don't worry! I'm just going under a phase!"
(Did... did she just read what's inside the parentheses?!)
"Yep! That's right!" She stared at me while I stared at her in pure horror. "What?"
Twilight looked between us and asked, "Um... am I missing something here?"
Pinkie opened her mouth to respond, but I quickly covered it and smiled nervously at Twilight. "N-nope! Nothing's wrong here! Anyways, I'm sure that what Pinkie's trying to say is that she could help pay the bills to take care of you... and since Princess Celestia rations a portion of the Royal Treasury to me for being an 'Endangered Species', I can help provide for you as well."
Twilight took a deep breath and sighed. Then she weakly smiled at both Pinkie and I before pulling the two of us in for a hug. "Thanks... I needed that pep talk..." Pinkie and I smiled back at her and wrapped our arms/forelegs around her.
We remained like that for a while, until Twilight slowly opened her eyes and spotted the clock hanging above the fireplace. Suddenly her eyes shot open and she broke from the hug, gasping loudly. "OH MY GOSH! I'M-GOING-TO-BE-LATE!" she practically screamed before dashing towards the front door and "popping" away from the area via a magical glow. Pinkie and I heard her galloping away from the other side of the door, and I was able to catch a glimpse of her running through the town.
Scratching the back of my hair confusedly, I turned to Pinkie, who turned to me, and shrugged my shoulders. "I guess we better clean up, huh?"
Pinkie nodded her head and flashed me one of her usual goofy smiles. I lightly chuckled before patting her mane. "Well, I'll handle the living room. You got the kitchen?"
She nodded her head and replied, "Of course!" Then she gave me a half-lidded gaze. "And maybe after we're done, we could both work on the bedroom~?"
I smiled and nodded my head. "That... sounds like a good idea."
With that, the two of us got to work, hoping that we could make the library look appealing in a Noble's perspective... but if only it were that easy...
To Be Continued...
Author's Note
Don't worry, folks! Backstories will be coming up eventually, such as how these three came to be in the position that they're in now, and how things went with our (seemingly nameless) human when he got here!
And yes, the lack of a name and description for our protagonist is intentional. Think of him either like an "Anon", but not necessarily "Anon", as that's been overused way too much (but I may throw in a few references to that at some point in this story 
) or a "Male Reader" insert, but spoken in first-person.
