Gel's power was focused on just one pony. Her love was sweeter than the most perfectly ripe fruit. The sight of her, beside him at the table, made him tremble with love. He wanted to pick her up and carry her up to their bedroom and make love to her until neither of them could think. "Gel? Gel?" Twilight's voice eventually cut through Gel's rose-colored glasses and he blinked a few times. "A little distracted?"

The changeling didn't blush, but he did lean forward and kiss Twilight. "I was." His lips drew back, then kissed again.

Spike and Cloud wandered in, pressed tight to each other's side. The former dragon had lost the shyness he used to have, around displays of such affection. He smiled to see his 'mother' with the stallion that she loved so much. He smiled wider still to see Gel give such affection back.

"Sorry, Twi, an enchantress stole all my faculties." Gel confessed, smiling like a drunk stallion.

Starlight was feeling a little third-wheelish at all this and was looking around for anypony to save her from the pairs of ponies. Starry brought out another tray of food, levitating it easily as she walked. She saw Starlight and froze, a look of annoyance and hurt passing over her, not for the first time.

"I am sorry for lying to you." Starlight was speaking before she realized what was happening. "I thought… I thought I was so very right but… I was wrong. I am sorry."

Starry had been keeping away, she normally wouldn't get so upset but this mare had lied to her so completely that it had almost cost her friends more than anypony should endure. "Humff." She set the food down. You should forgive her… eventually. Twilight has. Starry stopped. "No, no I won't forgive her yet, I want her to realize how much it hurt me!"

Starlight blinked, looking at the crazy-seeming pony.

"You should listen to Twinkle." Twilight lifted a wing up to brush the infested unicorn's withers. "She-"

"She lied to me, right to my face! You could have been hurt and it would have been my fault!" Starry spun and stomped out.

"Who is Twinkle?" Starlight was now looking more confused than ever. "Should I go and apologize more?"

"No. Give them some time." Twilight gave the reforming unicorn a rueful smile. "And Twinkle is her 'other half', she lives inside the mare."

Starlight's mouth made an O of comprehension. "She has an imaginary friend?"

"No. We mean really lives inside her, it is another creature that… lives inside." Gel tried to explain without opening old wounds. "She isn't crazy, she just has had a lot to deal with."

"Then I do need to go and apologize." Starlight turned, leaving the two couples as she trotted from the room. Castles should be easy to find your way around but, for a mare who spent all her life in tiny villages, it was certainly not the case. "Starry? Please, I… where am I?"

Starry poked her head out of her room, right behind the unicorn, but she didn't like it. "She's in here." Twinkle had taken control and much as Starry didn't want to talk to Starlight again she wanted to fight with Twinkle even less.

Starlight spun around and blinked at the odd turns of phrase that 'Starry' was using. Then Gel's words started to sink in, could whatever was living in her control her? "Are… are you okay?"

The concern in the mare's voice jerked Starry from her fugue. "She is fine, I just want you two to be friends. The princess was right, you are a nice pony." Twinkle stepped back into the room. "Come on in and chat."

"Thanks." Starlight took the offer and entered the room. If it wasn't for the changeling's warning she would think the mare completely loopy. "Twinkle, is it?"

"Yup! Pleased to meet you." A hoof lifted and Starlight met it with a clop. "Okay, she is seething now, but it is at me." Her whole demeanor changed, expression, stance, everything. "Ugh Twinkle! You can be infuriating sometimes."

"Starry. I am so sorry, I thought… I thought you had a problem." Starlight scuffed a hoof on the floor. "I should have realized that anypony so close to Twilight would be special in some way."

Starry's attention focused on Starlight and she blinked. "Huh? Oh, you mean talking to Twinkle… I didn't think it would be right to tell a random pony who showed up and, technically, I had to come here. Twinkle is… unique in her being nice."

"You are being kept against your will?" Starlight was confused. "Couldn't you just leave?"

Starry shook her head. "Well, at first, kind of… we tried to let Twinkle reproduce but… it didn't work out. She is the only nice member of her species." Sad but true. Luckily I found the nicest pony, one who would accept me and protect me. Watching the mare blush, Starlight had that feeling she was missing something again and it seemed it didn't go unnoticed. "Sorry, I was telling Twinkle that I was lucky I found her." The features of the mare flicked from 'Starry' to 'Twinkle' then back.

"I think this is going to be the most confusing day of my life." Starlight found a seat. "I am sorry, Starry, for having to lie to you, for-" A hoof reached up and pressed to Starlight's snout.

"Hi there, my name is Starry. My friend who lives inside is Twinkle. I am pleased to meet you." Starry lowered the hoof.

"You saw them, we had to leave them or they were going to give in and start doing something on the table." Cloud gestured back at the castle. "Poor Gel, while you were gone I had the hope that at least you were with the Princess of Friendship, the former bearer of the Element of Magic and an alicorn. He just wanted to be at Twilight's side so badly." The pegasus squeezed Spike with his wing.

"Not going to say what happened was easy to deal with, things got a little dark but as Pinkie would say, you have to giggle at the ghosties, or something like that. We made it and I got back to the most awesome pegasus in town." Spike leaned into the embrace, lifting his snout up and kissing Cloud's cheek.

"Well, luckily Stormwalker said she had some stuff to take care of tonight." Cloud guided the way back to his house. Even from outside, the pair could see what looked like candles burning inside. Opening the door, both of them saw Cloud's housemate, standing behind a table laid out as if for a discrete candle-lit dinner. For three.

"Mom always told me, 'Storm, if you want to get a stallion, you have to do it right and take the steps yourself'." Storm gestured to the table. "So, for tonight, I thought something special so we could talk."

Spike grinned wide, the idea of another good meal was appealing. "Wow, Storm, that is…" Then it hit the unicorn that the mare was trying to woo both him and Cloud Chaser. He blushed. A lot.

"A good start." Cloud tucked both his wings back down and stepped forward to find a seat. As he tried to climb into it and slide under the table Storm was suddenly there, guiding his chair. He hadn't been on a date with a mare before but this certainly wasn't terrible.

In a daze, Spike wandered up and was similarly seated before Stormwalker took the third seat. "Okay, so first up. Spike, how are you? You were on an adventure with the Princess again, right?"

The safe topic dragged Spike back to the real world, where oddly nice-looking mares that he totally never thought about before, didn't just proposition him for a date. "Uh, yeah. We got caught up in a time spell and got all kinds of tripped up in a unicorn trying to undo Twilight's friendships."

"Ouch. You beat her up?" Storm quickly shot from her seat, picking up the first dish from nearby, which she revealed to be an entree of bean shoots and a light cream sauce on little crackers.

"Not… really. Twilight showed her how important leaving things to progress normally is and more, how important friends are." Spike gave a happy smile and levitated one of the snacks up and into Cloud's mouth, before taking one himself. The flavor was delightful and he was already reaching for another with his magic.

"So what about us?" Cloud shattered the smalltalk with the elephant that was now galloping around the room. "We need to sort this out, no matter what else."

Storm nodded and looked to Spike. "I…" Spike closed his eyes and imagined the calm that took him when he used to breathe fire. "I liked it. It wasn't really what I was used to, but maybe we could try being more." His eyes snapped open. Did he really say that?

"It was fun enough, I wouldn't mind trying more." Cloud too looked a little surprised. "You know me, Storm, I love stallions, but it wasn't terrible. Not like some mares I tried to delude myself into thinking I liked." He gave a deep sigh.

"You never told me about this." Spike looked up at Cloud Chaser, surprise but not shock written on his face.

"Because they were nothing. Well, okay, not nothing. But they did teach me that mares… take too much work for me to like, normally." Cloud was fishing for words, using his hooves and wings to express his thoughts. "With a cute stallion, I can just relax and be myself…" He looked toward Stormwalker, piercing her with his eyes. "You were the first mare I have ever been able to feel even a measure of that relaxation with."

"I talked to Applejack." Storm seemed to be swapping topics and was blushing hotly. "You have no idea how hard it was for me to ask her, but she agreed if I want to, I can visit the deer again." Both stallions looked shocked. "What? I… liked that, it was fun dammit!"

"No, not that…" Spike couldn't hold back the giggles that were not helping to keep the mare from blushing more. "Just the thought of you asking 'that' of Applejack…" The poor stallion almost fell out of his seat with laughter until a wing caught him. He found himself nuzzling it until it dawned on him that he had fallen the wrong way for it to be Cloud's.

"I wouldn't blame her for not letting you play now. Although I really wish you had taken a picture as ol' honest-AJ tried to process that, Storm." Cloud noticed what his stallion-friend had done in the embrace of the mare's wing and blushed, then he looked at Storm more critically and found himself liking the blush and the ideas it was spawned from.

Storm marshaled her features into a scowl. "Like this!"

The giggles overwhelmed all three and they weren't capable of talking again for quite a while. "So… so okay, we are going to try some fun?" Spike was surprised to find himself sounding eager.

"After dinner." Storm reached out a wing and booped the unicorn on the snout. She trotted off, coming back with two plates of a light salad made of excellent quality greens, with a baked eggplant on the side. Fetching her own plate as well, she settled back at the table.

They ate in silence, sharing little glances and gazes at each other, blushing and grinning as they ate the delicious food. Setting down his fork, Cloud Chaser gave a little burp. "Did I happen to mention my housemate was an amazing cook? No… no I didn't. Storm, where did you learn to make this?"

It took the wind from the mare's sails. "I didn't make it, I really do suck at cooking." She slumped and looked defeated. The sound of a chair scuffing had her turn and look as Spike wrapped her in his forelegs.

"It's okay. It's the thought that counts." Spike hugged the mare tight and then, before he over-thought about it too much, leaned in and kissed her cheek.

"Thanks I-" Storm stumbled in accepting the praise when another pair of legs hugged her from the other side, wings curling around her and Spike too. She didn't need to hear Cloud say it. "Thanks."

"So… now?" Spike knew he sounded eager, but now it didn't seem to matter that much. They had committed, they were going to try some more fun and see how fun it was. He felt a hoof brush down his chest and for a moment he thought it was Cloud, until he realized Cloud had his hooves and wings still wrapped about Spike and Storm. The mare's touch was gentle but demanding, she stroked along his sheath, coaxing him to grow into her touch.

"Now." Storm felt the stallion growing, she had a dream, as a mare. She had only been with a few ponies in her time, but she had always wanted one particular thing. "I have an idea, but somepony is going to get to be on the bottom and somepony on the top."

"Do we really need to plan it?" Cloud Chaser could see there was a twinkle in the mare's eyes as if she had a plan.

But Storm blushed and nodded. "I… it's a fantasy… I…"

"Two stallions at once?" Spike gave a little buck against the mare's hoof that was now stroking up and down his length. "That can be after."

Stormwalker blinked. "After?" She then squealed in surprise as she was lifted up and plopped down on all fours. Spike advanced on her, the fruit of her own efforts clearly on display under his belly. All the dreams of being with two stallions in just 'that' position faded as she realized that maybe, just maybe, she could get around to that. But right now, she had an excited stallion to-

"Forgetting somepony?" With her head turned, Storm had completely missed when Cloud had come around in front of her. Wings beat and she gasped in surprise as she could suddenly only see the stallion's belly and what he was clearly offering her. Her gasp was perfect, it meant she could lean out and kiss the presented shaft.

Spike was on her plot, too and she had nowhere to go. Her ears twitched as she heard the pair kiss over the top of her. Her lips slid down the hefty pony pole before her, even as Spike's oddly well-lubed length shoved in deep, but not into her feminine passage. She grunted around the fast and deep taking of her tail-hole, part of her mentally berating the rest. Of course he would take that angle, he had only been with stallions. The lesson in mounting a mare properly would have to come later as the unicorn was apparently very good at drilling out a rump.

Cloud got to watch as 'his Spike' started bucking and claiming the mare. He couldn't see exactly where his lover had speared her, but he didn't need to. "Damn this is hot." He kissed Spike again, giving a little groan as Storm became a lot more active around him. Cloud couldn't hold back, his hips bucked and shoved, driving his shaft down into her mouth.

The world became a haze to Stormwalker, she had two very randy stallions on her and the hottest bit, for her, was how much they were into each other. Her fantasies had always been two males practically worshiping her as they screwed her silly. But it was very clear these two were making love to each other as much as her.

Confidence had filled Spike, this wasn't really different from being just with Cloud. Sure Storm was under him, but she felt good around his shaft and he felt her pushing back into each thrust. The best bit was being able to have such fun and still make-out with Cloud. A burning curiosity filled him as to what Storm's dream position was.

The stallions were out of time; it was almost frustrating for Stormwalker. She would push back against Spike and almost lose Cloud from her mouth. Slowly the pair seemed to gain rhythm, grinding in and out of her in time. Her pleasure grew not only from the delicious friction in her rear, but also because she was really into just how much fun it was to play with the two lovers.

Cloud felt as his shaft was clamped down on, Storm not biting but certainly using every other part of her mouth to greedily suck at him suddenly. It was too much for his control and, feeling the electric tingling in his groin, he watched as Spike's features set into the silliest of grins that he knew was the other stallion finding his end.

The mare's tight rear got tighter then, as Spike's shaft swelled up pending his climax. He saw as Cloud's grin widened in a way that tipped him off that his lover was about to unload. Pressing forward, he kissed Cloud's lips firmly as his shaft began to spasm and unload into Storm's colon, feeling the muscles there clenching and milking at him.

Storm had to brace her legs, the climax had slowly swelled over her and was riding her body, making her nurse hungrily at Cloud's shaft as she was suddenly being force fed pony seed at both ends. She shivered in pleasure, her empty mound glistening with her juices. Now she really, really wanted them both in her.

Spike takes some initiative, rolls a 20!

Starlight is just as adorably naive about all this madness as anypony would be.
