How to Date Your Best Friends

Things were NOT supposed to go this way.

This day started off great, everything was well in Ponyville, no villains, no threat to Equestria itself.

Then THIS happens. I-I don't even know what to call this. A DISASTER! A TRAVESTY! A--

Okay, I need to calm down. Come on Twilight. Just calm down and keep cool, that's what Rainbow Dash does, keep cool.

Where do I begin, ugh.

Well, for starters, I haven't written to Celestia in a while, I know I'm not her student anymore, but I just felt the need to write to her again. I don't know why exactly, It was just something urging me to tell Spike to pick up the quill and write. I guess it was to fill the void of not having to study friendship? I don't know.

Being a princess and not a student has several ups and downs, One of those downs is the amount of duties you have to do in a day. Schedule meetings, meetups, all those obligatory princess things you'd think a princess would do.

A BIG downer is not being able to write to your own mentor because you're not her pupil anymore. Which, as Rainbow would say. Is "totally lame".

I wanted to write to Celestia today, but I didn't know what to write. In fact, I was cooped up in the castle thinking about it all day. So I, like any smart pony would do, went out to ask for advice.

As I was about to exit my castle, i saw Starlight trotting around and decided to ask her.

"Hey! Starlight!" I said.

Starlight whipped around just in time to see me, she looked taken aback for a bit, then she came over.

"Oh! Hey Twilight! What do you need?" She asked.

I quickly told her my dilemma.

"I just need something to write about. ANYTHING would be great right about now."

Starlight started to think up something. It took a bit, but she finally spoke.

"The Life Cycle!" She said.

Huh? I thought.

"Y'know, how life works, how ponies meet one another to make other ponies!"

I gawked. "Why would I write about SEX to Celestia?" I said in pure disgust.

Starlight shrugged. "I don't know, I thought it'd be an interesting topic to talk about with her."

I thought about it.

"Well, it's not that bad of an idea..it is pretty suggestive...but...I'll do it." I said.

Starlight patted me on the back. "Go for it."

The she left.

I can't believe I thought writing about love making was a good idea. But I thought it was a good idea, so I did it.

The thing is, I really didn't have a sense of how love making worked in the first place, I never really engaged in that kind of activity when I was a young mare. I mostly spent time cooped up in my room studying magic.

So I decided to find out how exactly it works. But not in the way I envisioned.
