"What do you mean she won't come out?" Luna glared at the Royal Guard stallion. "She is co-ruler of Equestria, she must stand her position!" Something broke in Luna, an idea formed and she changed her tack. "Wait, never mind." She turned and trotted off, a little prance in her step.

"Uh, Your Highness?" Mac let Night's instincts guide her steps as she turned to follow Luna. "You… you gave in a little fast there."

"I did, Mac. But you know what, I think it is time my sister was shown just how little Equestria actually needs her. Never know, she might actually take an interest again." Luna trotted all the way to the small suite of rooms Twilight had for her own use, when she wasn't otherwise occupied. Lifting a hoof, she knocked on the door.

Twilight opened the door and peered around the corner of it. She blushed hotly. "Oh, Princess Luna!" She beamed widely, the hint of blush fading. "Is Rainbow Dash okay now?"

"I sent her to Ponyville, for Moon Dancer to take a look at your work." Luna cocked her head and sniffed lightly, a smile coming to her lips. "But it is for more important business that I come. My sister has decided that she cannot bear to work today. Would you wish to take her place for the day?" Everypony stopped and stared at Luna, she kept her mask of "polite inquiry" firmly on.

"M-M-Me… running the day court?" Twilight's eyes were huge and started shifting side to side. "I need to make plans, I need to prepare cue cards, I need-" A touch came up beside her, a familiar touch that had her relax a little.

"Little Apple?" Big Mac stared at her brother, standing tall beside Twilight Sparkle. She inhaled deeply and got a big snout-full of just what they had just been doing before Luna arrived. "Uh…" she looked up to Luna, then back to her brother and Princess Twilight, "you need a bath, both of you. Come on."

Luna stepped back, letting Mac through as she set about herding the two ponies into the room. "She is right, you need to clean up a little." She wore a smug smile and turned. "Mac, when you have Her Highness, Princess Twilight Sparkle ready, please escort her and her guard to the throne room."

Mac blinked, but Luna was already gone. Inhaling, she caught just a whiff of her Princess, but still had a lot of her brother and her brother's "best friend." Spreading her wings, she flapped them to shoo both inwards. "Where is the bath in this suite? Both of you in this instant!"

Twilight led the way. "It isn't really what it looks like, Big Mac." She pointed with a wing for Applejack's benefit. "We just wanted a little fun."

"Harmless fun, and it wasn't so little." Applejack leaned against Twilight, nearly pushing the slightly smaller pony over. "We were just talking about things, I apologized for marching into Twilight's castle and blaming her, then we talked about other things and how we both wanted to put the wind up sun-butt."

"You had sex just to tease the most powerful alicorn in Equestria?" Mac was more than a little dismayed. "At least tell me you used protection." She slipped past the pair, got the water running in the huge tub.

"Well, we didn't need to." Twilight blushed and gave her wings a little flap. Stepping over the edge of the bath, she climbed in and settled on her belly. "I only let him take my-"

"Stop. Stop right there." Mac shook her head. "Way more than a sister ever needs to know about her brother's sex life. Just promise me you two will be careful?" She reached into the bath, taking one of Twilight's wings and stretching it out carefully.

Applejack watched as his sister started gently preening Twilight's wing with the utmost care. "When did you learn how to do that?" He climbed into the bath as well, the thing now half-full with water. "Not that I mean ta pry or nothin'."

Mac finished with the first wing and reached to shut off the water. "Both of you get to work on each other, come on, you both have horns." She moved over to her brother, the scent of stallion reminding her of Jade. "Wing out." She caught it and started on Applejack's primaries.

"Big Mac, quick, look at AJ's expression!" Twilight had the giggles, pointing at her friend and lover. Of course, as soon as Mac stopped the preening, Applejack schooled his features. "Aww…"

"I can't help it, alright? Damn Princess made me… made me horny all the time. Now I have a sexy mare in the bath with me, and my sister preening my wings…" Applejack let out a little groan as said sister returned to work. "Sometimes life isn't fair." When he had an alicorn kiss his lips, it startled AJ from the down mood. He looked up at Twilight and saw her devilish eyes, and then returned the kiss.

"Hey, hey. No making out while your sister is here. AJ!" Mac finished the wing and reached up, pushing Applejack's head under the water. "No horsing around. We need to get Her Highness all cleaned up and ready for court."

"Court!" Twilight started trying to summon scrolls and quills to make lists, but then Mac found her other wing and she gave a happy sigh. "You have no idea how good that feels." She barely managed to lift a scrubbing brush to work on Applejack's fur. "Who have you been practicing that on? Rumor around the place said you were dating another bat pony."

"You said who she was hugging just before!" Applejack laughed and splashed Twilight with water. "Muh little sister went and bagged herself a princess and a Lunar Guard!" He froze then, looked at Twilight, and gulped.

"Runs in the family, then." Mac reached a leathery wing over and bopped her brother on the head. "So, did you two at least refrain long enough to talk about changing back?" With her question asked, Mac dipped down and started on AJ's wing.

"That is sort of where we stopped." Twilight smirked at the siblings. "I called Applejack in to ask him about what Princes Glowbug did, and asked him to show it all to me. He did… he showed me everything…"

"And then she sucked on me!" Applejack sounded shocked in Twilight, but there was an edge of mirth in his voice. "Me, with all these enchantments making me super horny. Well, there was the problem that I just couldn't climax, and after she finally stopped I explained what it was. She bent the enchantment to herself. I can only cum in Twilight's re-"

"Stop. I don't need to hear this, please." Mac gave a more-than-strictly-gentle bite on the tip of Applejack's wing. "Now, stand up and rinse off. Please tell me at least his undercarriage is clean?" She looked to Twilight, who nodded while blushing. "Ah! No, I don't need to know HOW you know." Mac reached up for the adjustable spray and began sluicing water over the pair, cleaning away the nasty messes each had left in the others fur.

When Mac turned to get a towel, Twilight leaned in and kissed Applejack again, loving that she had to lean up slightly to meet his lips. Just as the other mare started to turn back they broke apart, each wearing a silly grin. Trying for her most innocent smile, Twilight looked at Mac. "What?"

Mac leaned forward. "You be nice with my brother, Twilight Sparkle. I don't care if'n you are a princess, if you break his heart I will hunt you down." She lifted a dainty hoof and booped the Princess of Friendship. "Now get out of the tub and dry off."

Applejack looked at Twilight, his eyes dancing with playfulness. "Ah think, Yer Highness, that there is one pony here who ain't got as clean as she could be."

Twilight tittered and dipped her head. "Then my first decree for the day is… soak Mac!" Both of them swept their wings through the water, spraying it at Mac and soaking the mare.

"Wait, what are… oh, that's it!" She grabbed the sprayer again, turned it up to maximum and started hosing down the two. "Nopony beats me in a bathtub!" She reared up, planting her hooves on the edge of the tub and sprayed both ponies down again, getting plenty of water swept back at her for her trouble.

Not one to surrender, Applejack even channeled magic and dumped a whole bucket of water over his sister's head. "Give in!" He laughed as the spray caught him in the face.

"No, the mare's of Canterlot will never surrender!" Mac's eyes danced and she gave Twilight a significant look. Together, Twilight and Big Mac dumped tons of water on the stallion, laughing like fillies.

"Okay! Okay darn it!" Applejack jumped out of the tub, not that that saved him. "I give, we are clean gosh-darn it!" He lifted his wings to shield against more water.

"See, there is nothing a princess cannot do without her guard to help!" Twilight tried to strike a mighty pose, but was foiled by the fact that she was mostly soaking wet. Realizing her mistake, she charged up her horn with a drying spell.

Mac knew what was about to happen and closed her eyes, spreading her wings a little. A brush of warm air was all she felt and then she shook. "Much obliged. Your Highness." She trotted around the bath. "Do you have anything to put on, to make you look more officially 'princess'?"

"Look for yourself." Twilight led the way, finding an odd kind of silly mood at sharing her wardrobe with Big Mac of all ponies. "But Princess bright-butt won't let me have anything but…"

Opening the wardrobe, Mac saw the dilemma. "Bondage gear? Bridles… what is this?" She lifted out something that made her blush a little.

"That goes between a mare's back legs, the hole is for her tail. It clips on to a saddle and its girth strap." Twilight gave a little shrug. "It has been… an education."

"None of it will do. Not a single bit." Mac slammed the doors of the wardrobe closed and turned on the alicorn. "Now, what scents do you prefer?" She was already gathering a brush and spotted some fur oils Twilight kept in her room.

Applejack watched in shock as his sister acted like she was born to being a mare. His mouth hung open a little as Big McIntosh Apple began brushing oils and conditioners into Twilight's fur, mane, and tail as if she had been doing it for years. "Uh… Mac?" He stepped a little closer, not wanting to interrupt. "Ah gotta be on duty, mind if you-" He didn't get to finish.

"You are next." Mac gave her brother a calculating look. He would be best in something strong and musky, the scent a stallion should wear is… hold on, Princess Twilight won't have any of those.

Twilight giggled but let the other mare tend to her, but every now and again her eyes caught Applejack standing to the side. It made her heart beat a little faster each time she glanced at him and she closed her eyes and shook her head. "No, bad Twilight."

"Hey, I am brushing your mane!" Mac sighed, she had seen Twilight glancing at her brother, and had no doubt her brother was looking back. "Okay, done with you. AJ, get over here so I can deal with you."

Applejack's eyes traced Twilight's movement in a way he had never felt a need to before. When he had been a mare, mares were just mares. But now Twilight had gone and made them a lot more for him. "What's all the fussin' about anyway. Just brush out my mane and tail, tie them up, and-"

"No. Look at you. When you were a mare your fur might have been neat and easy to upkeep, but it is almost like Princess Molestia did this on purpose." Mac lifted her wing up to show her brother some of his long, fine coat.

"Ah don't get it, your coat was thick… when it was red…" Applejack inspected his sister now, finding her to be quite exotic indeed. Lifting one huge hoof, he gently rubbed back some fur on Mac's shoulder. "Huh, that is quite short compared to mine."

"Eeyup. Means it takes more work. You should see Luna's fur, it is almost as long as yours and I have to brush that for ages to get it straight." Mac worked away, not seeing the grin Applejack and Twilight shared at the statement, Twilight going a little further and raising an eyebrow. "Okay, you are as neat as a stallion guard needs to be. Now both of you go, let Princess Luna know I will be in our bedroom."

" 'Princess' Luna this time? And your bedroom as well, sis?" Applejack couldn't help but strut a little as he walked over beside Twilight. "It's okay, Mac, I'll tell 'Luna.' " He had to dodge the brush thrown at him, but laughed on his way out of the room, Twilight at his side.

The black one, it doesn't show any hint of enchantment, and we both know Luna will love seeing you in it. Mac nodded to Night's assessment, slinking back to Twilight's wardrobe and grabbing the dark bridle and reins. She gave a little shudder and hid it under one wing. "We do, it might be nice if she buys something like that for us." Mac trotted from the room, blushing more than normal.
