Careful's eyes were on the calipers while Trixie shook a hoof as if to get the slime coating she had received to fall free of her. "Starlight, don't you have a drying spell you can use on Trixie?"

Starlight had quite the smirk on her face. "That only works on water. You're coated in... not-water."

Trixie trembled from her hooves to her head. "It feels strange to her."

Moon raised a shaggy brow. "Strange how? Be specific."

Trixie pawed at herself. "Her skin tingles. It's cooling down, but feels warm somehow. It is very confusing to Trixie."

Moon grabbed the fabric from earlier and hovered it before Trixie. With a glow of her horn, magic was revealed. It seemed Trixie was plastered in magic, glowing all over. "Fascinating... Wait." She turned to you and eyed your sheath. "Where is your inhibition ring?"

You had taken it off when Starlight arrived, and then things happened, and...

Careful broke your explanations with a little giddy laugh. "It's alright. Your magic is renewing wonderfully."

Starlight cocked a brow. "That can't be from what little practice you've been getting. I suggest a new theory."

Moon glanced to Starlight. "Proceed."

Starlight pointed a hoof at you. "You're taking advantage of Twilight's magic. Friendship."

Your seed was being powered by friendship?

Starlight shrugged a little. "Not entirely, of course, but it's just another brick in this house you're making. You're stacking the odds in your favor." She began pointing at the other researchers. "You've surrounded yourself with ponies that like you."

Wait. Trixie you got. Careful was a cinch, but Starlight and Moon liked you, more than a means to an end?

Starlight pointed at you. "Look, we're still... getting to know each other, but you're accepting me, as me. You don't care about my past, and you're willing to cut me a break while I move with all the social grace of a beached whale."

Moon glanced from Starlight to you. "I... feel similar. Social situations are still new and worrying to me, but you don't seem to mind my ineptness. While I am ex--"

"Did you two forget Trixie is melting?" Trixie shook herself a bit, the cum refusing to budge. "Bath, now please."

Careful glanced at Trixie, almost jealously, before she returned her attention to your balls. "You're recovering faster than I've ever seen before, but it's topping out. I think you'll need some actual time, but I can't imagine you won't be back to full by tomorrow." She drew the calipers away. "Eighty nine percent."

Moon tapped at her chin. "Very good, but put the ring back on. We have more magic to explore, and we don't want you stressing yourself doing it."

"Bath?" Trixie looked up at you with pleading eyes. "Trixie has been a good pony, has she not?"

You almost reached for Trixie before realizing that would mean... yeah. You waved for the door instead and grabbed your pants on the way. It was bath time. As you went, you heard Starlight, Careful, and Moon discussing something technical, and caught Careful's furtive glance towards you. She looked away with a blush on being spotted.

The guards seemed to have no idea how Trixie could have gotten as she got. "Lab accident?" asked one, blinking. "Is she alright?"

You assured them both that Trixie would be fine after a bath. Nopony else got in the way to the bath Trixie wanted. She scurried ahead and splashed right in. She let out a loud sigh of bliss, but her eyes were fixed on you, watching you. "Trixie still feels... odd."

Odd how? You slid in beside her and grabbed a loofa to get to scrubbing and cleaning her pelt.

Trixie's eyes closed a little, enjoying the sensation. "She feels as if you have cast a spell on her. It..." She licked over her lips. "Is your ring on?"

It wasn't, but soon was. She nodded in approval. "Trixie does not want her master being hurt."

Wait wait wait. Master?

Trixie blinked softly. "Trixie said no such thing."

You were pretty certain you heard that specific word.

"Trixie is Trixie's own master! Not you, master." She went red instantly. "What is happening to Trixie?!" She reared up onto two legs in the water and pointed a hoof at you. "You enchanted Trixie! Take it off this instant, or... Trixie will..."

You held up your hands placatingly. You certainly were not trying to cast a spell on her.

"What were you thinking while Trixie was working?"

That it felt great? That... you perhaps wished a little it wouldn't ever stop, like any guy might think, you guessed?

"Ah ha!" Trixie pushed through the water at you. "You've made Trixie into your obedient cock-worshipping slave. You monster, you fiend! Do you not care for Trixie at all?" She oddly didn't sound nearly as furious as her words would imply. "You don't even have the decency to claim Trixie as a fellow pony. No, she will be shackled to a human's side forever."

About that...

Trixie's ears perked up. "Yes?"

You were willing to try it, when it was Trixie's turn.

Trixie's face lit up. "You are the most generous master Trixie has ever had!" She blinked. "You are the only master Trixie has ever had..." Worry crept in on her features. "Are you doing it just to be nice to Trixie?"

No! No. She was a pretty and fantastic mare, and deserved to be bred by a pony if she wanted to be with a pony. Besides, you were perhaps a bit curious to know what it was like.

Trixie suddenly hopped up and kissed you on the nose. "Trixie will show you. By the time she is done, you will not want to ever settle for human sex ever again." She turned in place and raised her tail, though her goods were under water and not perfectly visible. "Trixie may be an enchanted servant, but she will be the best enchanted servant."

"What's this about enchanted servants?" Moon was standing at the doorway, blinking in confusion.

Trixie pointed at herself. "He cast a spell on Trixie with his... Great and Powerful seed. Trixie is his now."

Moon raised a brow a moment before it lowered."You are just like a foal, casting spells on a whim without understanding it. I trust you don't mean to enslave Trixie?"

What? No! I mean... of course not?

Trixie pouted at you. "Is Trixie not good at being a servant?"

Moon stepped closer, eyeing Trixie. "You've really done it. You should be proud, but we should probably fix that."

Trixie wheeled on Moon with a scowl. "You're trying to get in the way of Trixie's happiness! He wants Trixie! He thinks Trixie is wonderful and great and pretty. Leave us alone!" Tears hinted at the edges of her eyes as she began to throw a tantrum. "Why does somepony always get in the way of Trixie's happiness!?"

Moon's horn glowed as a perfect geodesic sphere popped into being around Trixie, the water within sloshing about. "For your own good, I'm taking you back to the lab.

Trixie thrust a hoof against the bubble, but it was a futile and weak resistance. "No! He promised to be Trixie's stallion!"

Moon hefted Trixie free of the bath, though her bubble had water in it and it was clearly some effort to keep them up. "I'll... take her to... the others. You, your job is just to relax. I'll collect you for magic lessons tomorrow. Until then... you're off-duty."
