Today was a red letter day for Equestria indeed. There was a special guest expected in the castle of friendship today. It was a changeling queen of all creatures, from one of the out of Equestria. Queen Aurora, an ivory changeling whose hive had been quite successful without causing the same troubles that Chrysalis’ own had done over their past encounters. So, naturally, Princess Twilight was more than eager to meet this changeling queen, learn of her hive and their ways, perhaps even figure out ways to befriend her hive and by extension, all hives. Sure, it was wishful thinking, but optimism always helped.
So, the palace staff had gone about preparing the place for such an important and royal visitor. Naturally, that included making a grand feast for Queen Aurora and the princess of friendship herself. Though, to be totally honest, the feast was made mostly for Twilight than Queen Aurora. It was no secret that the purple princess was in possession of a mighty appetite. Living in such close proximity to Pinkie Pie had that profound effect on Twilight, much like many mares who lived near the legendary party pony. It was a hazard of living in Ponyville, but that was a story for a different time.
Twilight Sparkle stood at the head of the steps of her castle, idly rubbing her expansive gut while she waited for the arrival of the esteemed guest. The sight of the princess of friendship was one that caught most ponies off guard. Not only was she a very rubesque pony, with a gut which billowed out in front of her in a wave of succulent purple, with thighs thick enough to hold up such girth, along with an ass to match and breasts to befit resting on such a shelf. Even her face was rounded out and soft, but that wasn’t the only oddity about her appearance.
When one wasn’t looking upon the princess of friendship’s weight with a strange expression, they’d find their eyes instead pulled to the clothes and general stylings of the princess. Despite being the princess of such a positive and bright thing, Twilight dressed the opposite. Her hefty upper body was covered as best as it could be by a black hoody, the words ‘friendship is magic’ upon the front. Her face had a small layer of makeup, black eyeshadow and lipstick mixing with the purple of her face. Then, there were her piercings. Many for the ears, and one dangling from her belly button.
Twilight knew that she should have probably been better dressed for the occasion. This was a royal visitor, after all, and here Twilight was dressed as casually as could be. Her legs were in kitty stockings, for crying out loud! Yet, being better dressed wasn’t really an option for Twilight, either. Nothing else fit. Twilight had comfortable clothes, and she just hadn’t gone about getting around to revising all of her wardrobe as fast as she should have. Still, Twilight had faith that despite her clothing choices, she and Aurora could hit it off easily enough.
Queen Aurora arrived with not too much pomp or circumstance, wanting to keep this a more private affair and not draw the attention of all of Ponyville, all that really heralded her arrival was a carriage pulling in front of the castle of friendship, pulled by a pair of stallions who Twilight got the feeling weren’t as pony as their outside appearance led the average pony to believe. The door of the carriage opened, and out stepped Queen Aurora. The queen did nothing to hide her appearance, golden locks and white chitin out on plain display for all to see.
“Queen Aurora! It’s such a pleasure to finally meet you! I would like to personally welcome you to Equestria, and more specifically, the lovely town of Ponyville! I am sure that you’ll have a lovely time here.” Twilight Sparkle smiled, giving the changeling queen a pleasant wave.
“I should hope I do, Twilight Sparkle. Is this where we’ll be staying?” Aurora questioned, gazing up at the large crystal tree which Twilight called her palace. Even the changeling queen had to admit, it was a touch gaudy to look upon, but it was the castle that she was supposedly going to be staying at for the duration of her visit, so there was no point in focusing on the negative aspects it brought to mind.
“Oh, yes, of course. I am sure that you’ll find your room is all set up and prepped for you and your liking. Plenty of those...love stores have been prepped as well, so that you can be comfortable while here. We pride ourselves on making guests and future friends as comfortable as we can.” Twilight smiled, before she turned and began to make her way forward, opening the doors to the castle nice and wide for herself and the changeling queen.
Upon entering into the castle itself, though, Queen Aurora found herself struck with an intense feeling. There were a flurry of strong emotions filling the air, a variety indeed. There was feelings of friendship, passion for one another, that was easy enough to pick up, but at the same time there was an intense undertone in the air. A shared, focused love by every single pony who had stayed in the castle for an extended period of time. A love of food, of eating, of just indulgence. Of being such large and decadent sizes. The feeling of it caught Queen Aurora off guard, the changeling standing there, stunned for a few long seconds as images flooded her mind, of herself so large. Twilight stopped, turning to see her guest in such a state.
“Are you alright, Queen Aurora? Is something upsetting you?” Twilight Sparkle questioned, stopping and turning to face the changeling queen. Twilight waved her hand in front the changeling queen. Aurora stood there, stunned for a few long seconds, before she was suddenly snapped out of it. The queen blushed softly, before refocusing onto the princess of friendship. Even now, she could feel those things radiating off of the princess. It was a surprise, and not one at all, considering the corpulence of the form of the mare.
“No, I am quite alright, just the feelings of this place caught me off guard. It is a lovely castle, let us make no mistake of that. Please, continue with the tour.” Queen Aurora answered, giving a small bow to the princess. Twilight just kept a smile on her face and gave a bow in return. The large mare turned, and began to lead Queen Aurora through the large palace once again. Showing her the different rooms, trying to provide as best of a roadmap for it all as she could. Queen Aurora’s interest was only passive, polite one, taking account of it all as not to get lost, while her mind drifted to other things. Like the wonderful smell in the air.
“And this is the dining room!” Twilight Sparkle declared with a grand flourish, throwing the doors open. Queen Aurora’s jaw dropped at what waited for her, eyes widening with sudden desire. What was waiting for her took her off guard. The dining room was a grand affair, a large room with a table stretched down it’s long length, an absolute feast covering the surface of the heavy table. Normally, such a variety of food would have no effect on Aurora. She was a changeling after all, so normal food wasn’t something that she had to care about, and yet here she was, gripped with hunger. Gripped with the desire to just dive in head first and indulge. Queen Aurora had a pretty good idea of where she was getting the idea from, too, judging by the look of desire upon Twilight’s face as well. “They did such a good job preparing this spread. Would you like some? You must be hungry after your long trip here.”
“Oh, if I had to be completely honest, I’m quite famished. This is exactly what I need, Princess Twilight.” Queen Aurora grinned, licking her lips while her eyes scanned over all of that food. In truth, that was a lie coming from the queen’s lips. Changelings didn’t need to eat physical food, after all, only needing to survive off of emotions to keep going. It was those very same emotions that were filling the entire castle that drove Aurora to crave that food. Twilight said something off to the side, but Aurora didn’t hear her. Instead, she approached the table and took a seat.
The scents filling the air, the look of all that food, it sent shivers of delight and anticipation down Queen Aurora’s spine. The changeling queen knew that these feelings were coming from the pony who was taking a seat across from her, from her friends and the others who walked these halls and adored the food and bodies that too much of it gave you. Still, it gave Queen Aurora a feeling of thrill. They did say when in Roam, after all. Queen Aurora reached out, picking up a large sandwich from a platter. It wasn’t the most regal of meals by any stretch of the imagination, and yet that did not stop Queen Aurora from taking a large bite.
The taste was like nothing that Queen Aurora had ever had before in her life. This wasn’t essence or magic, something that could only be consumed at a fast pace. No, this was actual food! True, solid food which she could feel in her mouth, taste on her tongue, savor every second that it was there. No wonder ponies could end up at such large sizes so very easily! This food was genuinely amazing, and once Aurora swallowed down the first bite, she was eagerly taking another. She couldn’t help herself, nor did she want to.
“It’s good, isn’t it? My chefs really have outdone themselves and gotten even better lately. This food is delicious! No wonder my friends and I spend so much of our time in here instead of the other rooms of the castle, huh?” Twilight asked with a sweet smile towards Aurora, ensuring to light up her horn and move more of the banquet towards Queen Aurora, wanting to be sure that her guest was able to enjoy all this food.
Queen Aurora didn’t respond to Twilight, though, she had other things on her mind. Like all this food. Sandwiches, crepes, pancakes, waffles, cupcakes, rolls, pastas, there was just such a wide variety and Queen Aurora wanted to sample and enjoy every last bit of it! After years, her entire life, of only being able to eat emotions, which didn’t have any true flavor to them, over and over again, no flavor or substance. Sure, it didn’t bother her before this point, but that was because Aurora hadn’t known this was on option. Now, though, there was no turning back. Not in this new world of food!
The banquet of food was a vast and delicious one, but like all good things, it eventually had to come to an end. Twilight leaned back, patting her stomach which now only looked slightly bloated from the meal, a more firm roundness to it than was the typical look for the rotund mare. Across from her, though, was a completely different story. Never before had Queen Aurora taken on solid food, and to take on so much of it for a first time, it was no surprise the result. Queen Aurora leaned back, groaning softly and rubbing the utter dome of a stomach that she now hosted, looking as if she was hosting quadruplets of food babies, her belly groaning and gurgling in protest at what it had just been forced to deal with. Though, contrary to what sounds of protest that Aurora’s belly gave, her face was one of delight. If this was how all these ponies had gotten so fat, Aurora found herself understanding it more and more.
“I always enjoy just going nuts sometimes, enjoying a lot of food. Though, it’s always better when I have someone to actually enjoy it with! Usually it’s my friends, but finding someone new is always great too!” Twilight spoke, slowly getting up from her chair and walking over to Queen Aurora, the changeling queen still quite stunned from the sheer amount of food she’d taken in. It was certainly nothing to sneeze at, and even Twilight was impressed, unconsciously considering the changeling to be a bit of a lightweight when it came to eating. “Though, if my time of eating with Pinkie Pie has taught me anything, you’re gonna wanna rest off all that food. Come on, I can take you to your quarters and we can resume when you’re up!” The changeling queen was in no position to resist, so instead she just let Twilight help her up, and walked with her to her quarters in the castle.
The room that had been set up was a rather nice one indeed. It was one of the larger bedrooms in the castle, with a king sized bed with tall posts set to the back, four posts with curtains based around it. There was a bookshelf filled with books that detailed whatever Queen Aurora could want to know, a sign of trust and friendship from Twilight herself. There were some other simple commodities as well, such as a dresser, a desk, a store of bottled emotions that she could enjoy. Other than that, and a window to the outside, the room was plain. Twilight didn’t know enough about Aurora to give the room a personal touch.
“You just rest up here, let all that food digest. I’m sure that we can discuss about furthering the friendship between Equestria and your hive after you enjoy some rest.” Twilight smiled, guiding the bloated, sleepy changeling over to the bed. Queen Aurora just gave a small grumble of thanks in response, slipping onto the bed before tugging the blanket over herself, the sheer amount of food stuffed into her form doing it’s job of weight her down and urging her to just sleep it off. So, that’s what the changeling queen was going to do. Curling up as best as she could, with that gut as her focal point, the changeling queen soon drifted off to sleep.
In the land of dreams, though, Queen Aurora was in for quite a ride. Still under the haze of so much food and the love of food and largeness, the thoughts buzzing around her head to construct a proper dream were tainted by what she had enjoyed that day. It started off simple enough, with Queen Aurora seated at the head of a grand table, much grander than princess Twilight’s table had been, with an open sky above her and a landscape around which reminded her of food and dressed in a simple weight gown. Aurora’s drones lined the table, all holding a different platter, all plumped to considerable sizes of girth. Round, jiggly bellies with plump, hefty breasts that rested a top of them, with hips which flared large and wide, thighs which rubbed together with every step, and a asses that would spill over an average chair. Adorable, chuberic faces and chins joined by a twin. The sight of them filled Aurora with desire, desire and envy. They looked grand, and she wanted to look the same. Aurora was their queen, after all, so why shouldn’t she look better and more grand than the drones!?
With a single clap of her hands, the drones knew exactly what to do for their dearest queen. They all moved together as one mass, stepping forward and opening up their platters to the queen. It was a vast selection for Aurora to pick and choose from, everything from meats to cheeses, veggies and fruits to desserts and sandwiches. All of it looked delicious, and the changeling queen wasted no time, lifting some items of food with her magic, while others she just grabbed up with her own two hands, before beginning to stuff her face. Now, it wasn’t even about the food or how good it tasted, Queen Aurora was simply possessed by the desire to have MORE of it inside herself! To catch up and surpass her drones in terms of girth and beauty.
The food was delightful, as was to be expected, but that wasn’t what Queen Aurora was focused on. What the changeling queen was focused on was a single word. Fatter. Queen Aurora ate without restraint or care to what she was doing, just shoveling the food into her maw and swallowing it down. As this was a dream, giving a damn about chewing wasn’t needed, the food tumbling down easily enough no matter what state it was in. The other benefits of eating in this realm of dreams was made more and more apparent with every consumed morsel, such as the fact that there was no end to the food in sight, or that as Queen Aurora ate, there was no pause for fullness or waiting for digestion, as every bit went into that gullet, it was instantly transferred to what Queen Aurora craved.
The moment that food reached Aurora’s stomach, she could feel it change, turning from food into just more of herself, more of her form. The change was slow at first, only a slight amount of pudge coming onto the body of the changeling. A soft pot belly that pushed out from her midsection, a gentle curve to rest on her lap, the beginning of something grand. The food didn’t stop, so neither did the weight on her form. Her thighs began to grow rounder, softer, hips blossoming while the rear that she sat upon bubbled with weight, making her slowly sit higher. Aurora’s bust began to swell, the perky breasts becoming rounder and fuller, nipples puffier. Her growing body was already beginning to put stress on the dress, but it was nowhere near enough.
Aurora kept up her one changeling feast, the food kept on coming, and the changeling queen just kept on growing. Queen Aurora felt immaculate, her stomach so full, truly this was paradise! A paradise that came crashing down around her when the changeling queen heard a voice that pierced her beloved dream.
“Um, Queen Aurora?” Aurora’s eyes snapped open at the sound of the voice, the mention of her name, immediately beginning to take in her surroundings. This was definitely not the room that Twilight had placed the changeling in to sleep for the night. Instead, this was a place with a hard, tile floor. A counter wrapped around the outer walls and an island in the center. A variety of ovens. Some rustic farm equipment, but most alarming of it all, was that this room had an immensely sized fridge.
A fridge that was not only wide open, but also mostly empty. It was easy to tell where most of the food had gone, though. It lay in tatters and debris around the floor, on the hands of the changeling, around her mouth and on her front, and oh what a front it had become. Eyes drifting down, Aurora could see what had become of her stomach, if that was what you could even call it. In truth, it looked more like a dome, as if someone had taken a beach ball and shoved it down her maw till it replaced where her belly would be. As if upon que of being noticed, an intense pain and discomfort shot forth from the belly, causing an aggravated groan to escape the changeling queen’s lips.
“Um, queen Aurora?” Came the voice again, Twilight stepping into view of the changeling. She was dressed in a simple pair of pajamas. Nothing regal at all about the bottoms and button up top. The sight of Twilight, being caught in such a state as this, it set Aurora’s cheeks ablaze. It was almost enough embarrassment to take her mind off of the agony that was radiating from her overstuffed belly. Aurora opened her mouth to speak, but all that came out was a pained groan, her dome releasing a troubled grumble as well.
Twilight blinked a few times, taking in the sight of the changeling and her troubled state, before a small, tiny smile spread onto her face, the mare walking forward before she got onto her knees right in front of the changeling, using magic to close the fridge door. Typically Aurora would not have been too fond of being in such close range to a pony...but in her current state, there was simply nothing that could be done about it. Wordlessly, Twilight reached out her hands, before she gripped that dome of a belly. Aurora eyed her fearfully, wondering what she might do, what she was planning. Briefly images of the princess popping her like some kind of balloon flashed through her mind, Yet, as Twilight’s horn glowed, a warmth radiating from her hands as they began to move in circles, that was not what happened.
Aurora felt instant relief spreading from those hands and to her swollen gut. Aurora’s face was one of total delight, the painful pressure in her stomach giving way to a more pleasing feeling, Aurora leaning back and cooing her pleasure while those hands didn’t stop, rubbing in slow, dedicated circles, each rotation around that dome of a belly releasing more tension. Each time Twilight felt around that gut, it felt a little bit softer than it had been the time before.
“Oooh...what are you doing?” Queen Aurora asked curiously, Twilight Sparkle simply chuckled, not looking up. The princess simply focused on that belly, relieving the pressure, making it softer with every rub, less like a beach ball and more like a ball of dough.
“Well, you see, Aurora, I was in this same position as you on more than a few nights. Some caused by myself, more than a few caused by Pinkie Pie. So, I needed a way to not only deal with the pressure and pain build up, but also to, well...Speed up the amount of time till I could get my next meal.” Oh how Twilight blushed upon admitting that little sinful secret. “So, after learning some proper belly rubbing tactics and techniques from Pinkie Pie, I made a spell that increases digestion and general comfort of the belly. Long story short...It makes you fatter faster so that you can eat again sooner.” Twilight winked, the blush on her face going nowhere, only causing one to spark on Aurora’s as well.
“For the princess of friendship...you are a completely terrible influence.” Queen Aurora said with a small scoff, but it was easy to see that she was still enjoying herself. The feeling of that warmth spreading through her body, the food digesting and being turned into something so much more fantastic. Pure, decadent corpulence. Hips that could and would rock side to side, jostle and jiggle. An ass that could crush a chair, burst it to splinters if Aurora wanted. A gut that’d cover her crotch better than any underwear would. Breasts like sandbags, and a round, chuberic face. Sure, Aurora might not get that fat from all this food, but it was nice to have goals, wasn’t it?
“Oh, I know. None of my friends are very good influences when it comes to weight, food, or self control. Friendship, loyalty, honesty, generosity, laughter, kindness, we have down. Diets? Hee…” Twilight admitted sheepishly. “Though, you don’t seem to mind too heavily, Aurora.” The princess added, Queen Aurora simply leaning back, giving a hearty chuckle.
“Mmm...Maybe I could learn some details about friendship...If this is what goes hand in hand with it.” Aurora said, before closing her eyes and sighing happily. Especially if this was one of the perks of friendship.
