Princess Celestia was a goddess to many. Not only was she wise, kind and powerful but she was also a true sight to behold. She had a slender, fit frame with luscious curves and a feminine smile one easily fell in love with. Yet deep down, Celestia was still just a pony and ponies went hungry.
It had been a long and bothersome day for the princess and to make matters worse, it hadn’t even been a productive one. At the start of the day two nobles had come to her over some sort of trivial dispute. Apparently one of the two had laid claim on a title of the other. “Duke of the Saen.” Celestia groaned to herself, blushing lightly as her stomach let out a loud growl. A small minor province near a river… Said small province had however been annexed about two hundred years before Celestia was born and if it hadn’t been for the existence of such a title, the province would’ve no doubt been long forgotten.
Nevertheless, Celestia was the leading authority on nobility and all things related and thus, had been forced to skip lunch and dinner to listen to five hours of dynastic claims and family ties. In the end, she’d given the title to herself and had kindly yet firmly expressed her suspicions that given the presented evidence, she herself could claim most of the titles the two nobles had.
Celestia giggled at the thought, how quickly those two spoiled stallions had left her court. She hadn’t been lying either though she figured this would be enough of a lesson for the two. Perhaps the next time they’d think more carefully about coming to her about something as trivial as a title. Besides, they had plenty of them anyways. “Hmm, I wonder what my full title is now.” Celestia wondered as she started reciting the titles she remembered.
“Princess of Equestria, Queen of Canterlot-Oh my...” Celestia uttered as her stomach let out another loud growl. Perhaps it was time for the newly crowned duchess of the Saen to celebrate this ‘important’ event with something to eat.
With her signature graceful strides, Celestia quickly made her way towards the castle kitchens. Yet, for Celestia’s stomach, things still weren’t going fast enough. Just about every minute, her stomach howled for attention making the princess smile awkwardly whenever somepony gave her a weird look. Luckily for Celestia, it was getting late so most of the castle staff had already gone home. Though, this also meant there was next to no kitchen staff present.
“Excuse me, is anypony here?” Celestia called out as she entered the castle kitchens, frowning as she saw the kitchens were completely empty. She glanced at the massive clock hanging on the other end of the room. A quarter to eight, the few nightshift cooks were serving meals in the barracks right now.
“I suppose I’ll have to wait then.” Celestia groaned, pouting slightly at the thought of having to wait another hour at the very least for her meal. In response, her stomach let out a loud roar and Celestia swore it had even moved a little. Quite clearly her stomach wasn’t all too happy with the idea either. “I’m aware you want food but we both know I can’t cook.” Celestia answered, it was quite ironic really. Everyday she handled a massive fireball easily twice the size of a planet yet keeping control of a small fire to cook was beyond her capabilities.
For a moment the princess thought, only to smile as an idea came up. Usually there were still some left overs, or even better yet. “Desserts for tomorrow.” Celestia uttered with a big grin on her face as she hastingly trotted towards a massive fridge.
Said fridge wasn’t your everyday refrigerator. It was easily the size of a broom closet and contained eight shelves each filled to the brim with delicious puddings, cheesecakes, chocolate dressing, everything a hungry sun princess could wish for! Or at least, Celestia hoped so. With a magical yank, the fridge was opened and- “Oh, what is this?”
There was a single chocolate cheesecake covered with strawberries available for the starving princess. It was somewhat crudely made, no doubt by an intern or perhaps someone trying a new recipe, yet it still looked rather tasty. Then again, to still her hunger Celestia wasn’t looking for prize winning desserts.
A soft *hum* sounded as the cake was encased in a golden aura and was levitated towards a nearby table. For a moment Celestia looked around for a knife to cut the cake with but soon a guilty smile crept up on her face. She looked around one final time, making sure nopony was there before diving into the cake with her snouth. Greedily, she took huge messy bites, barely taking time to chew before gnawing once more at the cake.
To any onlookers, Celestia would've looked like a starving pig finally being given a trough of his favourite mushy vegetable mash and it wouldn't have been entirely unlikely the princess felt the same way.
She happily swished her tail about as she continued to devour the cake, savouring each bite only a split-second before taking another one. Soon most of the cake had been consumed though Celestia didn't seem to care. With just as much fervor, she started licking away at the plate, swallowing whenever enough crumbs of chocolatey goodness had mixed with the saliva in her mouth.
With shock yet also some fascination Luna watched as her sister ate like a wild animal. Perhaps that wasn't even a fitting description, she'd seen wild animals eat with more decency.
Luna waited for her sister to notice her but when that didn't seem to happen, she cleared her throat making the gluttonous sun princess look up.
"L-Luna?!" Celestia stammered in embarrassment, her muzzle covered in chocolate. "I-I was just-"
"Wait, where did you get that cake?" Luna asked, glaring at Celestia as realization started to set in.
Celestia blinked, suddenly not only feeling embarrassed but also a little anxious. Had this cake been Luna's? Her sister tended to be a little 'protective' about her belongings…
"You ate my cake?! Sister, did you know how long that took to make?" Luna said, a slight hint of sadness in her voice. One of her first successful cakes, she had been so proud of it and she hadn't even had a chance to taste it.
"Luna, I'm sorr-Did you even taste it?" Luna growled making her elder sister awkwardly smile and take a step away from the moon princess.
"But of course Lulu, and it tasted lovely." Celestia tried with a heart warming smile though her sister didn't seem to be buying it.
"Fine."
For a moment Celestia had the urge to blurt out 'fine?' but she managed to keep a straight face. Luna had always been a little hotheaded. Tomorrow she'd have all forgotten about it. "I suppose I'll get cleaned up and go to bed. It's been a long day for the duchess of the Saen." Celestia giggled, only to fall quiet again as she noticed Luna's glare. Right, her sister still was a little frustrated. "Have sweet dreams, Luna." Celestia said as she started moving towards the door.
"Yeah... " Luna groaned, only to smirk as an idea popped up in her head. "Sweet dreams, Celestia." Her sister was going to discover just how sweet dreams could be.
Later that evening
Celestia sighed with content as she let herself fall on her queen's sized mattress. It was a warm summer day so she'd skip the blankets for tonight. She was honestly too comfy and too exhausted right now to be bothered about it anyways. "At least only Luna saw me pig out like that." Celestia yawned, blushing a little as she thought back at what she had done. What had gone through her head even!
“Never… Never again” Celestia uttered as she fell into a deep slumber. For Celestia however, her night was gone in a single blink.
When she opened her eyes once more, it was morning and the sun shone brightly into her room. She lazily glanced towards her alarm clock. “Eleven thirty five.” She uttered weakly, followed by a long yawn. Had she truly slept through her alarm this morning? At least Luna had raised the sun in her stead. Despite her lateness, Celestia wasn’t in a hurry. She rarely was, she had learned that if she wanted to remain sane in her royal life, it was better to avoid stressing about things that couldn’t be changed. Besides, her court wouldn’t start till 2 PM and the way she was laying on her side right in the rays of the sun felt simply divine and straight out comfy.
Lazily, the princess stretched herself, only to widen her eyes as she realized something was seriously wrong. Moving her legs had never taken this much effort and she could’ve sworn her thighs weren’t normally this meaty and jiggle-y.
If anyone had been watching Celestia, it would’ve been quite the sight seeing the sun princess perform manoeuvres a body like hers simply didn’t easily allow. Her tree trunk legs barely extended outwards and the massive gut the princess had grown overnight pushed further outwards as Celestia tensed her now deeply hidden muscles.
“W-What?!” Celestia cried out as she laid eye on her own body. She was absolutely massive! What in Equestria’s name had happened to her? Celestia blinked, the mirror in her bathroom! She had to see her reflection!
Celestia’s initial instinct was to raise herself but soon found out that that wasn’t such an easy task anymore. With the same speed the doughy princess tried to get up, her fat flanks and flabby stomach seemed to force her downwards again. “This is *huff* not working.” Celestia panted, a little ashamed about just how easily she lost her breath.
Trying a different strategy, Celestia attempted to roll onto her stomach first. Rocking from side to side, Celestia used the moment she’d gained to roll over onto the ocean of flesh that was her stomach. “F-Finally” She uttered with reddened cheeks, how could something as simple as rolling over be this hard? Celestia frowned as she realized she wasn’t out of bed yet, let alone gotten to the mirror, and already felt like she needed a moment to recover.
“M-Maybe just a moment.” She puffed, only to shake her head, making her chipmunk cheeks and extra chin wobble slightly. She needed to push on. Slowly but surely, Celestia awkwardly shuffled herself across the bed, up until the edge. She rolled back on her side and groaned weakly at the thought of having to roll out of bed. Just how sluggish had this body made her?
Taking a deep breath, Celestia started rocking herself back and forth again. Once a bit of stomach managed to sag over the bedframe, the rest soon followed. With a soft groan of discomfort and buckling knees, Celestia landed on her plump legs “Good gracious, just how heavy am I?” Celestia wondered, her legs really hadn’t appreciate the sudden weight put on to them.
Nevertheless, Celestia wasn’t complaining. She was finally out of bed, the first step in finding a cure for this curse or whatever had befallen her. After regaining her breath, Celestia started moving towards her bathroom though she soon found out that walking wasn’t much easier than getting out of bed.
Whenever she tried to bend one of her legs to take a step, her excess flesh formed a roll of fat that hindered the action. Her big hips and butt bounced as if they had a mind of their own which somewhat kept throwing Celestia of balance. Chafing thighs not caused discomfort but also frustrating sexual arousal as her flower unintentionally kept being poked. Worst of all was perhaps her stomach however, with every step her knees would kick it, forcing Celestia to awkwardly sidestep her own belly.
The result was a cute feminine waddle that seemed to emphasize Celestia’s extravagant curves and made her jiggle in all the right places. For Celestia herself however, it was slow, tedious and straight out embarrassing. Her body was literally getting too big for its own self! It was also starting to get painfully obvious just how little stamina she had. The door leading to her bathroom was at the other side of her personal chambers. By the time Celestia had gotten there however she was all out of breath.
“I-I can’t *puff* Believe *huff* this.” Celestia uttered as she opened the door leading to her bathroom and leaned against the doorframe. “This really is a good *huff* enticement to lay off the sweets.” Celestia told herself, when everything was back to normal again she’d definitely think twice about taking that extra chocolate bar. She blinked as she realized something. If everything would get back to normal again, otherwise… Celestia gulped. She didn’t even want to think about what sort of a lifestyle revamp would be needed to fix this body. “Your body.” She corrected herself with a blush, there was no way everypony would believe she’d just woken up like this, especially the ones that rarely visited Canterlot. Celestia shuddered at the thought, sure she was a little gluttonous at times but she hadn’t let go of things this badly!
“Get moving again, sun butt.” She told herself as she continued her waddle. About three quarters through the doorframe however, the princess ‘waddled’ into some troubles. Celestia gasped as she could feel her hips grinding past the doorframe, this was going to be a- “Tight fit… Talk about sun butt.” Celestia cursed herself as she portly princess looked behind her. Halfway through her giant sun cutiemarks she’d gotten too wide and jammed her fat ass into the doorframe. She was stuck.
“Of course most of the weight had to settle on my huge rump.” Celestia rolled her eyes, she had always been a bottom heavy filly but this was just unbelievable. Taking a deep breath and wiggling her blubber butt, Celestia tried pulling herself free. “A-Almost!” She groaned as she could feel herself starting to come loose.
with a soft ‘*flop* Celestia’s large hips came free and the obese mare stumbled into the bathroom. Thank god she hadn’t fallen, Celestia didn’t dare to think how hard getting up would be. Luckily for Celestia, The bathroom itself was much more spacious than the doorframe. It was about as large as the average living room with it’s key feature being a giant bathtub, easily large enough for three alicorns. At the time Celestia had found it far too extravagant though right now… Celestia glanced at her rump. She probably needed the space.
Celestia shook her head. She still needed to see her own reflection. With her now signature waddle, Celestia made her way over to the mirror. It was a large body mirror specifically made for herself, after all, being a towering alicorn often meant that one was too big for normal things. Something that was definitely the case now for Celestia.
“You know you’re a big girl already, just stay calm.” Celestia told herself, using her magic to lift over the mirror closer. Nevertheless however, Celestia was still speechless once she saw herself. She’d seen pregnant dairy cows smaller than her.
Her once slender legs had grown thick and doughy which was all the more true for her hind legs. Her once firm and muscled rump had morphed into two big globes of blubber that jiggled whenever she moved. Her already impressive hips had easily doubled in size and were far too wide for the large mirror in front of her, forcing her to rotate the mirror a few times to get a good view of just how bad things were. Her swan like wings had gotten puffy and lost their muscled and powerful appearance. Her belly consisted of multiple rolls of fat and hung just past her knees. What bothered Celestia the most however was her face. A thick extra chin and two puffy chipmunk cheeks, it was unmistakably her face, she was the obese mare that she saw in the mirror.
Suddenly, a female voice called out from behind Celestia.
“Princess? You’re awake already?”
Celestia tried looking behind her but saw little more than her massive backside. She took a few paces back as to not knock over the mirror with her rump and started shuffling in place, slowly turning. Slightly out of breath, she finished her turning and offered a smile to the mare in front of her.
A young, brown unicorn stood before Celestia, her blonde mane kept in a ponytail and a tight maid outfit hugging her slender frame. “Hello my little pony.” Celestia offered with a smile. “You must be quite surprised but I assure you, everything is fine. Can I help you?” Celestia asked in a motherly tone. No doubt this maid was baffled by her weight gain over night but it’d be best to try and keep calm.
“Uhm, no?” She said a little confused. “I am actually here to help you. Didn’t Valiant sent a message I’d be replacing Morning Star for today? I’m Silver Lance,” The mare stated, her horn glowing as a small serving cart rolled in. “I’m sorry the bath isn’t ready yet, Morning Star told me you usually didn’t wake up till 1 PM. Otherwise I would’ve served you breakfast in bed as requested, I swear.” Silver Lance stated a little panicked.
Now it was Celestia’s turn to be confused. Breakfast in bed as requested and the mare didn’t even as much flinch when she saw her? Just what exactly was going on here. Just as Celestia was about to respond, a loud growl sounded and the whale princess put a hoof to her stomach. “Is that breakfast?” She inquired, trying to look passed the maid. Not only had Celestia gotten wider, she’d also gotten a tad shorter because of the way she was forced to position her legs.
“Of course princess, fifteen warm crêpes with melted chocolate, a jug of milk with some added sugar and three slices of buttered toast. The usual.” Silver Lance explained as she trotted off and started turning all sorts of valves. “Would you like a warm bath or a cool one? It’s a hot summer day so I figured I’d ask.”
“Hmm? Oh warm please.” Celestia answered, the puffy mare licking her lips as the smell of her delicious breakfast finally reached her. With Silver Lance no longer blocking the way, Celestia could actually see her breakfast as well. The crêpes still slightly steaming, the toast getting all soaked in chocolate-y goo as some of the crêpes seemed to be oozing the delicious sauce.
“If this is the usual, no wonder I’m this big.” Celestia, her stomach once more gurgling as it demanded to be fed. “Though if it’s as delicious as it looks… No wonder I can’t keep a hold of myself.” Celestia said as one of the crêpes was encased by a golden glow, chocolate dripping out of it as it hovered to her mouth. Surely a few couldn’t hurt?
A satisfied moan escaped Celestia’s with chocolate smudged lips as the plump pony princess finished another crêpe. “Silver Lance, would you please hand me another crêpe?” Celestia asked as she allowed her large form to sink a bit further into the bathtub. She would’ve been lying if she said she wasn’t enjoying this. Not only was the bath doing wonders for her aching muscles, the food had been delightful and Silver was great company.
“Uhm… There aren’t any left princess” Silver stated, looking back at the serving cart. “There’s nothing left actually, I could get you some more if you’d want?” Silver Lance asked as she offered an apologetic grin to Celestia. “Morning told me fifteen would be enough to still your hunger, I can make a larger batch tomorrow morning if you’d like.”
“Don’t please. Though they were lovely, I’d like to start watching my figure.” Celestia said, glancing down towards her stomach. Even though she’d eaten enough for a small family, she was still a little peckish and her stomach wasn’t even bloated in the slightest. Maybe watching her weight would be harder than she thought.
“But why princess, you’re maybe a little heavy but you carry your weight well.” Silver tried with a smile.
“A little heavy? Silver you flatter me.” Celestia giggled, though her laughter soon faded away. “S-Silver, could you maybe help me get out of bath?”
Celestia was running late. Silver had spent thirty minutes getting the plump princess out of bath after which she had thoroughly dried Celestia for another fifteen minutes. Celestia blushed as she thought back at the moment, not only was she too fat for her own bathtub but she was also too fat to dry herself without assistance. Silver’s words still echoed through her mind. ‘Just let me help. You don’t wanna get a mold in between your folds, right princess?’’ Celestia shivered at the mere thought, she didn’t even want to think about that.
Whatever the reasons however, by 2 PM she had to be present in the court of the sun. The court of the sun was perhaps the most well known chamber of the Canterlot Castle. Not only did Celestia’s court take place here, it was also famed for hosting the grand galloping gala. It was also in a different wing of the castle and thus about a fifteen minute walk from Celestia’s chambers. For a fit pony that was.
Celestia however, had been waddling for twenty minutes so far and was still only halfway. With a sweaty face and burning thighs, the obese princess continued her seemingly endless waddle. “G-Guards *huff* Guardsmen!” Celestia wheezed as she allowed her fat frame to rest against a nearby pillar for a moment.
The guard in question turned around and quickly made his way to Celestia. “Yes, princess?” He asked, looking a little worried. “Should I get you some water, princess?”
“N-No…” Celestia huffed as she placed a foreleg on her heaving chest. “J-Just tell my court *puff* I’m coming. I’ll be a *huff* little late.” Celestia panted, gesturing with her hoof for the guard to leave. “Go, just tell them I’ll be late.” Celestia said, her heaving coming to an end as she regained her breath somewhat.
“As you wish, princess.” The guard said without hesitation after which he galloped away, leaving the chubby princess on her own once more.
“I can’t believe I’m this out of shape.” Celestia muttered as she placed her glowing face against the cold granite pillar to cool off a little. “If you keep this up sun butt, fifteen crêpes every morning, not to mention what's for dinner.” Celestia scolded herself. “You’ll be bed bound before the next summer sun celebration. Get a hold of yourself.”
Celestia took a deep breath and started waddling again, her juicy hips bouncing with every step and her stomach swinging like a pendulum. “A salad, that’s what you’ll have for lunch, that’s what you’ll have for dinner.” Celestia continued. She was going to shed these pounds, she still wasn’t sure how she’d gotten them, and why nopony seemed to care but after her display with food so far, she earned it. The fat gluttonous plumper that she was, fifteen crêpes, a jug of milk and still complaining about wanting more.
“Sister, why the rush?” An all too familiar voice called out, before Celestia even had a chance to turn sideways, the moon princess was already beside her. Much like Celestia once was, Luna was slender, fit and graceful. She was even slightly taller than Celestia now though Celestia could tell her sister was standing straight as could be. Was she trying to show off?
“H-Hello Luna, I’m just a little *huff* late for court.” Celestia said, already out of breath again. Nevertheless, she kept on waddling and gave Luna a weak smile.
Despite Celestia’s efforts to be quick, Luna had no trouble at all to keep up with the princess. On a normal pace, the blue alicorn followed her ‘big’ sister. “I see you’re looking healthy as ever sister. You seem a little out of breath though, would you perhaps like some cake to boost your energy?”
Celestia ignored the obvious remark about her weight, rolling her eyes as she shook her head. “I’m trying to watch my weight Luna, I really shouldn’t-Hmmpf!” Celestia let out muffled protests as a good chunk of chocolate cake was forced into her mouth.
With great effort, Celestia managed to swallow the moist yet chewy cake after which Luna forced another bite into her mouth. “My my, Sister. You seem awfully hungry today.” Luna grinned. “Though, I suppose it’s only befitting for someone your size. You’re always hungry, aren’t you?”
“L-Luna! What is the meaning of this!” Celestia stammered with a blush, chocolate smudges on her face. “I don’t want more food. I’m fat enough as it is. Don’t force me to eat more!” Celestia said, trying to pass her sister. This was beyond simple teasing now.
“Oh, I’m just making sure my sister has the energy to keep on going.” Luna said, trotting in front of the chubby princess, blocking her way before giving her a wicked smile. “Would you like some more cake?”
“NO!” Celestia shouted, jolting upwards covered in sweat. Wait, where was she? Why was everything dark all of the sudden? It took a few seconds for Celestia’s eyes to adjust to the dark but soon she started to calm down. This was her room, she glanced towards the clock. “Four AM?” Had it all just been a horrific dream? She glanced downwards to her body, she wasn’t obese anymore!
Like a little filly, Celestia jumped out of bed and started galloping around her room. She was all fit and slender again! No rolling out of bed, no getting stuck in doorframes, no more waddling! “It was just a nightmare… This is the last time I’m ever eating that much sugar before going to bed.” Celestia promised herself. “Or desserts in general.”
Unbeknownst to Celestia, a certain alicorn had troubles containing her laughter as she was peering through the glass door leading to the balcony. So Celestia had learned her lesson and in the future she wouldn’t be such a glutton? Luna giggled softly. “Oh sister, I hope this gives you some food for thought. Stay away from my cakes in the future.” Luna whispered to no one in particular before flying off.
One thing was for certain, this had quite literally been one of the sweetest dreams Celestia had ever had.
