Earl slowly crept through the alleyways and side streets of Ponyville, avoiding as best as he could the eyes of various ponies. The pegasi were the tough ones to avoid but thankfully there were a lot of overhangs to lurk under. Earl had felt the swell of confidence and anonymity that came with his new form, but he didn't want to push things until he was sure he could at least walk on his own four hooves. Hence his hiding and practicing. He had been at it for a solid hour now and he felt he had finally mastered his hooves. He could trot, canter, and do small bursts of full on galloping, but he didn't want to gallop for longer than he had to lest he fall over himself. He stopped his hidden lurking and gazed out from behind a building at the mid to late afternoon mid-street, his larger eyes blinking.

"Okay Earl...heh," he half chuckled at his more baritone voice before smacking his cheeks to psyche himself up, "You can do this. Just be confident, act like you belong here, and no one will question it. Hold your head high, smile-"

He inhaled through his nose to calm his nerves and spoke in affirmation, "and strut!"

He then rounded the corner and strutted with all the confidence he could muster. As he did, some ponies noticed him and whispered amongst themselves at the new face while others would give him a friendly greeting which he'd return with gusto. He went past the Apple Family Stand and noticed Big Mac manning it today and noted he was almost eye level with the work stallion. Mentally Earl noted he must at LEAST be a few inches shorter, so along with his toned build, he had the height to go with it. This caused him to smile with a little more satisfaction as he continued his strut down the main street. He passed by an open café and caught the eye of Carrot Top, Strawberry Sunrise, and Roseluck who all looked at him with wide eyes. He noticed their attention and flashed them a friendly smile, which he thought nothing more of it as a wordless 'Hello!' But to the three mares, they found their faces heating up with blushes and Roseluck smiled a little bashfully. Earl made his way past Sugarcube Corner, but then smacked face first into a wall of pink, and he mentally paled as the invisible record scratch silenced his mental tune of jubilation.

"Oh crap...Pinkie Pie..."

Pinkie Pie smiled at Earl as she seemed to have been standing on her hindlegs with her front hooves open, and had waited for him to collide with her before embracing him in a hug.

"WELCOME TO PONYVILLE PINKIE PIE HUG!!!" Pinkie Pie all but squealed out before squeezing Earl in a death grip.

"I FORGOT ABOUT PINKIE PIE!!!"

"Ooops! Sorry about that stranger!" Pinkie Pie released him from her grasp causing Earl to wheeze as she hurriedly spoke in her defense, "Sorry, you probably don't like surprise hugs! I mean most ponies I meet don't mind but from the look on your face and the lack of words, you don't strike me as a surprise hug pony."

"Yeah, kinda threw me for a loop there," Earl wheezed out.

"Well as long as your okay, let me start over. Hi! I'm Pinkie Pie, resident Party Pony and Planner of all things laughter inducing," she pulled out a can of nuts that was opened to reveal spring-loaded snakes which made her giggle.

Earl couldn't help but smile at her antics as she went back to ground level, "So stranger! What's your name?"

Earl's eyes widened in dread.

"Shit! SHIIIIIT!!!"

"Oh oh! Maybe I can guess! Hmmmm, let's see," she looked at him with a critical eyes, "Your name is..........Pumpernickel Pride!? No no! Fudge Funday? No that's ridiculous, I already know him. HI FUDGE!!!"

A random squat brown pony waved, "Hey Pinkie!"

"SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIITTT!!!!!"

Pinkie tilted her head as Earl's frozen expression and her expression lessened, "Am I close? Come on give me a hint!"

"Uuuuh, my name is....uuuuh," Earl started causing Pinkie to sit down.

"Uuuuh? Hm...hard hint. But I love a challenge!" Pinkie started writing out formula's in the dirt around the hint 'Uuuuuh.'

Earl cleared his throat and drew Pinkie's attention, "My name is-"

He glanced around and saw a mare having trouble breaking open a chestnut with her teeth, "Chestnut..."

He looked at his flank for a second and then flatly added, "Elixir."

Pinkie wiped her calculations away and groaned in agitation, "AW!!! That was my next guess!"

Chestnut blinked in mild surprise but then remembered the wise words of Twilight about never questioning Pinkie Pie.

"Well Chesty! It's nice to meet you!" Pinkie said with a big smile, "So, what kind of welcome party do you want?"

"Uhm, if it's all the same to you, I think I'll forgo a party," he dreaded saying those words but noticed Pinkie Pie didn't miss a step.

"Okie dokie lokie! It's no trouble, I just know there are some ponies who like parties and some who don't and I make it a policy to ask all new faces," she chuckled, "Back in the day I'd just throw a BIG party to anyone who came into town, but that was the old Pinkie."

In a flash Pinkie Pie was in a refined dress and had her hair styled back in a refined fashion, "The new Pinkie is older and wiser."

A bunch of balloons then proceeded to leave the train of her dress as she maintained her stance like nothing was amiss. Chestnut chuckled at her antics as he nodded at her.

"Well thank you for your consideration," Chestnut said with a good natured smile.

"No problem! You may not be getting a party, but here," she then produced a large cupcake from her mane with sparkles mounted in it with frosting spelling out, "Welcome!", on it, "Pinkie's Pinktastic Welcome Surprise!"

Chestnut's eyes widened, "Coooool."

"Right?" Pinkie said before depositing it in Chestnut's hoof and bouncing away, "See ya around Chestnut!"

Chestnut took a bite and his face lit up. He'd eaten Pinkie's treats before but either it was because of his change of form or maybe the feel of being in disguise, but the treat tasted MUCH more sweeter than ever before. Chestnut finished off the confection as he trotted down the street, one of the sparkles which he discovered was edible chocolate, sticking out of his mouth as he casually sauntered down the way. He passed by the Ponyville Spa, and was stopped again by a Crystal Pony Mare dressed in a Spa uniform with her mane and tail done up in a bun.

"Afternoon sir!"

Chestnut rotated the still sparkling sparkler in his mouth with his tongue so he could speak properly, "Hey, how's it going?"

The Mare smiled sweetly, "If you don't mind me saying so, you seem a little out of sorts."

Chestnut blinked a little, "Is it that obvious?"

"Why of course!" The Mare circled him slightly, "Now I am NOT questioning how you live in the slightest, but I'm merely pointing out that it seems you have a lot of built up stress in your joints and back. Judging by your size and build, you're a laborer right?"

"Uh yeah? I'm a landscaper," Chestnut replied in surprise, "How did-"

"How can I tell? Well, that's my special talent, I can discern what a pony needs in terms of the physical. Bones, muscles, etc. It's how I got my position here!" she responded as she looked at his mane, "Hm, seems you'd need that styled ever so slightly, maybe a trim..."

Chestnut shook his head and mentally noted that ponies are still an interesting breed when it comes to 'special talents'.

"Well sir, how about I offer you a complimentary session here at our fine establishment?" The Mare asked with that same pleasant smile.

Chestnut glanced up at the Spa sign, ruffled his mane slightly and shrugged, "Sure, I'm not made of stone. Though I'd prefer my ha- MANE, be left alone if that's okay."

The Mare nodded as she guided him inside, "Of course sir! Though might a recommend a soothing conditioner and possible tropical wash?"

Chestnut shrugged again as he finished the sparkler, "Sure, sounds good."

The Mare smiled as she took her place behind the counter, "Understood, I'll ensure to put some in your complimentary basket when you're finished. Now, is their any specifics you'd like?"

Chestnut was about to speak up, but then stopped when he turned his head and noticed a pink mare with a blue mane underneath a white headband working the back of a stocky white stallion with a finely parted blue mane, darker blue hooves, a long unicorn horn, and three golden crowns on his flanks and what seemed to be a mustache that matched his mane and tail. He noted how the stallion seemed very relaxed and very content.

"Aloe my dear, you are simply a miracle worker," the stallion intoned in a refined accented voice, "truly a master of your craft."

Aloe smiled at the compliments as she seized his hindleg and popped it at an angle causing the stallion to sigh in deeper relaxation, "Thank you Sir, I appreciate that!"

Chestnut looked over to the Crystal Pony Mare and tilted his head, "I'll have what he's having."

The Crystal Mare blinked for a few seconds, her eyes flicking to the other customer and to him, her cheeks alighting with a blush, but she shook her head to clear her head.

"O-Of course sir," she tittered lightly with nervousness as she wrote somethings down on her clipboard and then passed it to the inversed twin of the Aloe.

Chestnut had seen them before and at FIRST had trouble remembering who was who, but he always remembered a little thing he came up with his head.

Pink and Blue, that's Lotus for you! Blue and Pink, that's Aloe with a wink!

Lotus stared at the clipboard and her reaction was the exact same as the Crystal Mare's. Both mares looked at each other, then Lotus eyed Chestnut up and bit her lower lip slightly. She then let her professional smile return and she inclined her head.

"Just grab yourself a towel while I prepare the table sir." She sweetly said in her matching eastern European accent to her sister's.

Chestnut slowly nodded as she sauntered off and did as he was asked. The stallion sat down on the chair as he waited. Soon he felt the presence of someone sitting beside him.

"Ah! Hello there sir," that same refined voice said pleasantly.

"Huh?" Chestnut turned and was staring at the stallion he had just seen a moment ago, "OH! Hey, what's up?"

The White Stallion chuckled with a good natured smile, "What's up indeed! Here for some relaxation I take it?"

"You could say that I just went through a bit of a," he chuckled inwardly, "drastic change, and thought I'd have a walkaround."

The Stallion gave a light smile at that, "Ah I see, a stallion of intrigue. Well there's nothing wrong with taking in the local color from time to time eh?"

"Some more than others," Chestnut replied with a smirk, "A long way from Canterlot aren't you?"

"Ah yes, how very astute," The Stallion nodded with an impressed expression, "what gave me away? I could just be a refined local like Miss Rarity. A good friend I might add."

"Hm," Chestnut mock tapped his chin, "It was a tie between the posh voice and the mustache and mane."

The Stallion gave a good natured laugh, "Well it seems I'll have to try much harder to remain incognito during my visits here! Your candor is quite refreshing I must admit. Forgive me," he raised a hoof to shake, "I'm Fancy Pants, it's good to make your acquaintance Mr?"

Chestnut shook his hoof, "Chestnut Elixir. So do I call you Mr. Fancy or Mr. Pants?"

Fancy laughed again, "Oh good heavens no! Mr. Pants makes me sound like my father! Just Fancy, please."

Chestnut smirked a little as Fancy sat with a smile on his face.

Chestnut glanced over at Fancy Pants in curiosity, "So I have to ask...why come here rather than..."

"Oh, a Spa in Canterlot? Well it's simple really," he waved a hoof in the air, "Don't get me wrong, the service I receive in Canterlot is top! But at times the favoritism and constant need to be in my 'Good Graces' wears ever so thin. So I come down here to the Ponyville Spa at Rarity's recommendation where none care what walk of life you come from and treat you just like everypony else."

Chestnut nodded in understanding, "I gotcha, I don't think I'd be able to deal with that kind of attention. It's like, 'Oh no! Chestnut doesn't like this food? Well neither do I'," Chestnut leapt from his seat and pointed into the air, "I say that statue is obstructing my view of the sun!"

Fancy leapt down beside him and mimicked his gesture, "Tear it down so he can sun himself unhindered!"

Both stallions shared before sitting back down and Fancy turning to look at Chestnut, "I must admit, it really refreshing to find another who's not afraid to be themselves around me."

Chestnut smiled back, "Yeah, you're pretty cool too. We should hang out if you're ever in the neighborhood."

Fancy Pants tapped his chin and smiled, "I wouldn't mind that in the slightest! Say, what would be your mailing address so that communication won't be an issue, if you don't mind me asking."

Chestnut was about to reply, but paused. In his eagerness of making a new friend...he'd forgotten about the fact that he was a man in pony's clothing. He thought hard on his next few words and steadied himself.

"8093 Maple Road," he said with confidence.

"Wait a moment, isn't that the residence where Equestria's only human resides?" Fancy questioned with surprise.

"Yeah, see the thing is, I'm actually going to be crashing with him for a while until my ACTUAL home is rebuilt. It was wrecked during that hurricane a while back. Completely blitzed." He explained without missing a beat.

"That's unfortunate to hear," Fancy replied with sympathy in his tone, "Where'd you meet him? The Human I mean?"

"Oh, a Diner a month back. I just finished moving my stuff in!" Chestnut blurted out.

"I see...," Fancy mused before clopping his hooves together, "Well alright! The best of luck to you both!"

Aloe and Lotus appeared and told both stallions they were ready for them. Chestnut turned back to Fancy and asked.

"Talk to you later Fancy. Oh! One other thing!"

Fancy peaked his head out of the room he was taken into, "Yes?"

"I asked for the same treatment you're getting, anything I should expect?" Chestnut asked curiously.

Fancy chuckled knowingly, "Trust me, you'll enjoy it."

Chestnut had a confused expression as Lotus nudged him into the room.

*

Lotus smiled sweetly as she gestured for Chestnut to lay down on the table. He slowly eased himself face down, his head resting in the hole as he stared at the floor. He laid there silently as he heard Lotus clopping about and shuffling a few things. He had to admit, being a Pony so far wasn't super bad. Walking on all fours was a little awkward, but his new ears, taste-buds, and even nose as well as eyes made everything much clearer. It was almost like his human senses got dialed up to a whopping 10. He smiled a little at the fact he could pull of making that potion like he did, though a small pit formed in his stomach. He HAD just made a new friend, but under the wrong circumstances.

"Well...I mean I can tell him next time I see him....though it would be REALLY awkward to explain why I'm doing this."

"I am ready to begin sir!"

"Oh, sure," Chestnut replied a little distractedly, "Go ahead, your the expert."

"I mean if I were to come clean or...oh god what if the others find out? I'd probably be labeled a weirdo or some sort of freak. Or WORSE-"

"OOOF!" Chestnut gasped out as a he felt Lotus sit on his back, "Hey Lotus, what are you doing back there?"

"Ah, my chart here says that Medi Pedi put you down for a back and joint massage. So I will be working on that first before I get to what you requested," Chestnut felt his hindlegs seized slightly, "I must warn you sir, you'll feel a light pressure in your lower back and flanks, but rest assured that it's all part of the treatment."

Chestnut squirmed a little as he felt exactly what she was talking about as he felt his legs being bent a little toward his back, "Gnnnh, hey it's nothing against you but could you maybe TAKE IT EA-"

CRACK! POP!

"Ooooooooh," Chestnut sighed out, "wow that feels great."

"Glad you think so sir, now I'll start on your front legs and neck before I move to your back." Lotus affirmed before she rotated and seized his front legs and started to lightly bend them.

Chestnut grit his teeth as he felt the pressure build along his legs and between his haunches before there was a satisfying pop, then all the tension left him as he slumped with a look of content on his face. Lotus then gingerly seized his neck and sharply snapped it one way and then the other as little pops were heard causing Chestnut to practically melt in her hooves. He smiled dopily as she moved to his back and kneaded it.

"Oh, you seem to carry much tension in your back Mr. Elixir," Lotus noted, "working hard?"

"Eeeeevery day," he moaned out, "works hard. Life's hard. You know?"

"Ah yes, life's the greatest job of all," Lotus popped a bit a of a knot in his back as she continued, "But my mother always told my sister and I that life is only as hard as you make it. Make the most of it and it'll be easier each time."

Chestnut nodded as she finished up.

"Alright sir, roll over for me and we'll finish up," Lotus said sweetly as she turned away from him and started retrieving a few things from the tray she had nearby.

Chestnut started at the ceiling as he rolled onto his back. He glanced at a clock and noted with mild surprise how late in the afternoon it was, the time between his change, waking up, and going about down. He had been a pony for almost 4 Hours now, at least in a half an hour he would be. His mind also drifted to when he had come to this Spa before with Rarity and Fluttershy a few times. The staff had always been nice and complementing to him just like now. He couldn't put his hoof on it, but the service seemed more...natural to him and the staff. Maybe it was because he wasn't a bipedal ape man. He sighed lightly, remembering Golden Hearts words before he jolted from a sudden warmth trailing under his towel. It wasn't just the location of the warmth, it was the fact that he could CLEARY feel it being slathered around his new balls and sheath.

He sat up and looked down with wide eyes. He could see Lotus's lower body while the upper, which was out of sight, was under his towel.

He continued to stare in relative shock as Lotus rose up from under and eventually removed the towel. In her left hoof was a balm container, and her other hoof was covered in a bit of it as she used the towel in her mouth to remove the excess before placing the balm down.

"There we go sir, give it a moment to work and we can begin the final leg of your treatment and then you can head home for the afternoon," she said with a warm smile.

"Okay first of all, what in the actual hell EXACTLY is this treatment and secondly until what wor----OOoooooaoaaaaaa...." Chestnut's tirade devolved into a long moan as he felt a pulsating heat in his nethers.

Lotus gingerly eased his back to the table and calmly replied, "The language isn't needed sir, though this must indeed be quite the shock since Mr. Fancy Pants orders this treatment every few months. It's a simple easing of ALL stress, physical," she then whispered a little hungrily in his ear, "and the sexual."

Chestnut felt a tingle up his spine at how her low accented voice danced in his ear. He glanced down and could already see his black equine shaft throbbing to full mast as Lotus casually hummed a tune to herself as she waited. Chestnut panted hotly as his cock continued swell until eventually it achieved full attention. Lotus nodded to herself before gingerly coming to the table and taking her place between Chestnut's legs. Chestnut meanwhile, felt his loins constantly tingle with pleasure, almost like he was permanently on the 'edge', but he couldn't hazard a guess as to why.

"Now allow me to explain how this process works," Lotus stated professionally, "The balm I've administered to your genitals has stimulated you to the point of orgasm, it's a special treatment we only afford to those looking for a FULL relaxation experience. But with that said," she continued as she stroked him gently, "that does mean we will not be taking part in the activity as a whole, this IS a place of business after all. This just allows me and my sister to suck out the stress until your problems just melt away."

"S-so what...your saying is...you're just going to drink from me like a straw?" Chestnut panted out.

"Exactly," she said with a chipper tone, "it lasts for a minute, MORE than enough time to ensure total relaxation, now just lay back and let me work sir."

Lotus gently seized Chestnut's shaft in her hooves and angled it toward her lips. With a low hum of content, and a groan from Chestnut, the stallion's tip swallowed by the Spa pony. Chestnut squirmed a little from the feeling and warmth of her muzzle locked around his meat, Lotus occasionally tonguing the main vein. He wasn't sure, but he could swear she was taking her time, he moaned a little loudly when she eased his shaft into her throat and swallowed around it a few times before pulling back, the tip resting in her mouth as her lips tightened around it. She closed her eyes in focus and inhaled through her nose before applying suction. Chestnut, if he still had toes, would've felt them curl at the amount of pleasure that shot through his nerves. He then felt a pressure work it's way up his shaft until-

Gulp

A large lump of seed spilt from Chestnut's engorged tip into the waiting mouth of Lotus before being swallowed down her throat. She then applied another amount of suction before swallowing down another lump down her throat. Eventually, Lotus found a rhythm to her sucking and swallowing as a small steady stream of lumps slithered their way down her throat. Chestnut, on the other hoof, was in a state of pure bliss and utter orgasmic nirvana, the only thing in his ears he heard was Lotus gulping and possibly another series of moans somewhere else. He laid there as Lotus sucked on him like a hungry lady on a Milkshake, until he felt a pressure at the base of his spine. It started as a tingle, which evolved into a warmth, which then shot through his whole body. At the exact moment of it's zenith, a low and loud groan escaped the stallion's lips as a MASSIVE pressure shot from his cock and down Lotus's throat. The Spa Pony drank it all without missing a beat until the now flaccid and spent cock flopped from her lips and the now tensed Chestnut flopped like a wet noodle against the table. A deep blush on his cheeks as he laid there with the biggest and most content smile on his face.

Lotus wiped her lips with the towel and came over to the stallion's head, "Feel like you can walk sir? Or do you need a moment? I've been told the first experience of the White Fountain Method is quite intense."

"AAahaaha, buuh, gauuuh," Chestnut murmured out, his expression never changing.

She pecked him on the forehead before replying, "I'll give you a minute."

Lotus sauntered out of the room leaving the babbling stallion where he lay. Chestnut laid there for another solid minute before he pulled himself to his hooves. His head swam and he stumbled lightly out of the door and into a pair of hooves.

"Whoa there Chestnut," Fancy's voice said calmly, "find your hooves now."

"Hehehe, that was...woow," he drunkenly sputtered out, "That was greeeeeat."

"I see you enjoyed yourself," the slightly taller stallion said knowingly with a friendly smile, "Really takes the edge off doesn't it?"

"Oooh yeah, I need to get me more of that," Chestnut murmured out with a content grin.

"Well I'm afraid that'll have to wait, once per month treatment and all that," Fancy intoned as he helped the stallion stand straight, "Come, I'll meet you at the front desk."

Chestnut nodded and slowly meandered after him.

As he walked, Chestnut felt his vision clearing and his hooves getting more in synch as the intense afterglow faded. Eventually he made it to the front and found Fancy Pants fully dressed. He wore a black fine suit coat with a purple bow tie, the tails of his suit coat parting perfectly at his tail. He pulled out a monocle and fitted it onto his eye which caused Chestnut to inwardly laugh.

"Jeez, give this guy a top hat and silver car and he'd be the monopoly guy."

Fancy noticed him approach and he dropped some bits on the counter before turning to Chestnut and handing him a small 'Gift Basket' that Medi Pedi had handed him.

"I believe this is yours," he said as he placed it before Chestnut.

Chestnut picked it up in his teeth as Fancy adjusted his monocle, "Thanks."

"No trouble Chestnut," Fancy responded as he followed the stallion outside and both gave thanks for their service.

Fancy pulled out a small pocket watch with his magic from his lapel as he gazed at it for a second, "Goodness look at the time, apologies Chestnut but I have an appointment to keep in Canterlot. But rest assured, I'll send a letter as soon as I can so we can schedule a day to as you put it, hang out."

Chestnut nodded at him as Fancy's horn lit up and he was gone with a magical pop. Chestnut smiled around the basket and casually started sauntering down the street. He nodded as a hidden musical tone played in his head. He didn't know how long he trotted along, but eventually he felt his left haunch give a bit of a jolt to the left rather sharply causing him to stumble into an alleyway and almost fall over.

"What the hell!?" he cursed as he found his hooves again.

He glanced over at a back window on a building, and balked at what he saw. It didn't take him long to notice, but the black diamond patch on his snout was receding into his fur and in it's place was a familiar patch of color skin that was spreading. He backed away slightly until he felt his left haunch give another jolt, but this time an audible pop was heard. He let out a yelp of surprise as his right haunch followed suit with what his left was doing. He looked in the window reflection and saw that his haunches were popping and cracking into the place where his shoulders would be. He jumped back as a loud pop and a wheeze inducing pressure smacked him in the back as his spine started to set itself and he stood perfectly on his hind legs. He looked from side to side in a panic, he then heard a loud series of fleshy pops and cracks in his ear drums as he saw his nose and upper jaw sharply pull back a few inches toward his face, followed closely by his lower jaw.

"SHFFFBPPHT!" he spat out as he turned around and started to hobble down the alleyway.

Unlike when he first changed, there was no blinding pain. Instead it was replaced by sporadic feelings of mild to great pressure that was relieved in an instant with the pops and cracks mingled with the snaps of his bones and frame. Soon his hobble turned to a gait and his gait turned into a sprint as hooves, legs, and hips righted themselves to their original shape. Earl stopped for a moment and noticed his face in the midst of completely shifting back. What made him less human was that his face was protruding ever so slightly. He eeped and smacked his own face, a loud pop was hear and he was staring at his old mug again. He breathed a sigh of relief.

"Howdy Earl!"

Hearing the familiar southern accented voice, Earl's eyes darted left and right to note his surroundings and noted three things. He was naked firstly, remembering he had discarded his clothes when he changed. He noted secondly that his house, though up on it's hill, was near but still so far and he was near the lake just off his backyard gate. The third thing was that Applejack, the orange coated blonde braided mane and tailed mare with freckled cheeks and three red apple cutie marks with her brown Stetson, was coming up fast toward him. Earl looked frantically to the lake and, swearing under his breath, leapt headlong into it.

Earl popped up and shivered as Applejack came over, "Hey partner...what exactly are ya doin?"

"J-Just g-going f-for a l-late afternoon s-swim AJ! C-care to j-join me?" he stuttered out as he shivered, "The w-water is r-r-really refreshing!"

"Heh, ah think ah'll pass," she chuckled, "looks like yer havin enough fun for the both of us."

Earl shivered as Applejack bid him a friendly goodbye with an offer to come by the farm sometime before departing.

Once she was out of sight, Earl scrambled to shore and ran through his back door and slammed it shut. After quickly running himself a hot shower and dressing in a simple shirt and loose pajama pants, he went back to his lab and noted the remaining vials and his discarded clothes from his first change. He deposited the sweaty garments in the bin and went to his small journal and thought hard as he took up his quill. Mulling somethings over in his head, he flipped to a blank page and wrote down while speaking aloud.

"Potion is a success, full transformation achieved," he muttered as he dipped for more ink, "change seems to last at maximum, 4 Hours. Might have to look into this, will begin work on manual antidote for a quicker change back to my human state if it's needed."

He yawned lightly and shut his journal. He then went to his living room and flicked on his Interdimensional TV and settled in for the rest of the afternoon.

Author's Note

To avoid confusion from now on, when Earl is human I'll use his normal name. But when he's a pony, it'll be by Chestnut. Looks like our boi is discovering a few things about the culture he's a part of now and he's made a new friend in the high society!

Also that twin trick in Chestnut's head refers as such, 'Mane' and 'Coat' in that order.
