--Ponyville, Outside The Library--

A pacing Twilight waited eagerly for her new guest/possible friend to arrive from Canterlot Castle. She had been waiting anxiously all morning for him to arrive.She could not wait to ask him all kind of questions about his kind and his world. The ever knowledge craving unicorn’s tail was swaying behind her rather quickly.

“I hope he will become good friends with the girls and I. Oooh this is so exciting! A new being means a who new research project for me to work on!”

Clearly, the bookworm unicorn didn’t care about who was watching her excitement. Many eyes were on her for a moment until the roaring sound of Void’s Xiphos drop ship flew in close. The flying monster roaring and blowing the loose leaves and grass in all different directions as it drew closer. The sound of the cylindrical chamber was heard as is shifted and turned. Hydroid leaped from the mold and landed in front of Twilight on his feet. The ship then quickly left as soon as it came, disappearing into the distance. The frame stopped within six feet of Twilight before Void walked out of it. Twilight’s eyes widen and her pupils shrank as well, her jaw nearly hitting the ground. A few others did the same thing while some ran and hid.Though there was one mare whose gaze never left Void. Those golden eyes growing wider and her pupils glimmering with absolute want. Though she watched him from a hiding spot. Void smiled up to Twilight as he approached her. She wasn’t nearly as tall as Celestia or Luna, but he came just above her breasts.

“You are Twilight Sparkle I take it? I wanted to thank you and your friends for taking care of me when all that happened the other day. And thank you for staying at my side during your visits when you didn’t have to.”

He said with a slight bow forward. Twilight blinks a few times as shakes herself back into reality and smiles to him. He comes up with his bow and locks his gaze with hers. And his eyes certainly caught her attention. They had an icy white glow to them, a dark blue outer iris and an icy white inner iris. They were certainly eyes that could capture one’s soul if they stared into them too long.

“I-It was no issue at all. I am to assume that your name is Void Walker? Celestia said that is the name that was given to you since you can’t remember your own. Anyway, it is a pleasure to finally meet you now that you are conscious and moving. But how did you know how I was and that I stayed with you when you were out?”

“As I explained it to your rulers, I have an excellent memory. I listened to you and your friends speak, the way they breathe and by smell. And your scent always seems to be fresh paper and ink. And by the way, you speak, you are quite intelligent. Plus you have an adorable little snore when you sleep.”

She blushed a bit when she called her snoring adorable. He gazes shifting to the side as she circles her hoof into the ground. This made the tenno chuckle and smile as well. If it’s one thing he liked, it was intelligence. Twilight cleared her throat and motioned for her to follow him.

“Well, l-let me show you your room! If you would come inside with me please.”

Void gave a nod and disappeared back into Hydroid, resuming control once more. This startled her again but she calmed down quickly. This made Void laugh, although his voice was now mechanical as if he was speaking through a high tech filter.

“I will need to get used to that…”

“Yeah, I can imagine that something like this is quite new to you.”

Twilight and Void walk into the library, closing the door behind them as they entered. The first thing that he noticed was a large amount of books on the shelves in the huge open bottom floor room. Void definitely knew she loved this place simply because it was full of books She must have been the bookkeeper of this library as well. Once they head up the stairs, there were a few doors that lead into a few rooms One that leads to her room, and the door across from hers was going to be his room which was already nicely furnished and had a wonderfully sized bed. He stepped into the room and looked around It had a desk and chair on the far right, the bed was on the left and a window on the back wall and even a shelf full of books. He stepped out of Hydroid again and stood over the bed, falling on top of it and nuzzling into the pillow with a gentle sigh.

“So this is what a real bed feels like...so soft and warm.”

He said as he hesitantly gets up from the bed. Only to find twilight...poking and prodding at hydroid with curiosity in her eyes and even a notepad floating around her as the quill starts writing down notes. Boid laughed lightly as he watched her.

“I bet you were waiting for me to come out so you could get a good look at him huh?”

She jumps a bit as he had caught her. She lets out a light giggle and scratches the back of her head.

“Sorryyy...I just been wanting to learn about this thing that you control without effort. And your ship is quite something as well. Though there is some kind of barrier that was preventing me from getting closer earlier today. I was really hoping to get inside and have a look around.”

“Oh trust me, you would leave right about the time you entered. There is...someone in there that would drive you crazy with his manner of speech. But anyways, feel free to look at him as much as you want. But please, do not touch this, these or these. Last thing i need to find out when i return from looking around is that you got hurt.”

He said as he pointed out his arca plasmor shotgun, his akstiletto prime and his nami and skyla prime blades. After talking a bit more, Void makes his way back outside. As he takes his first steps towards the town square, he is tackled to the ground by a mint green mare with two-tone white and silver mane and tail. She straddles over him with a big smile and a long gasp.

“I never thought I’d get to ever see one. But you are really….a human! I knew that your kind existed! I just knew it!”

She gave him no time to respond, she wrapped him up in her arms and shoved his face right into her breasts, nuzzling into him and holding tight. Void flailed and spoke in muffled tones as he fought to breathe, eventually, he got tired of it and void dashed out of the mare’s grip, leaving her to fall to the ground from where he was. He holds out his hand in a defensive stance ready to blast her with void energy if need be.

“Back! Back I say!”

He said in a slight shout, the energy swirling around his arm and wrist as he keeps his gaze on her. The mare quickly rises to her hooves and steps back a bit, waving her hands rapidly.

“Wa-wait! I wasn’t trying to hurt you, honest!. I just got excited to see an actual human is all! Please!”

He stares at her for a bit his eyes looking into hers for any sign of truth. He didn’t find any deception so he lowers his hand back down to his side. She smiled at him and slowly walks up to him, examining his features and swaying her tail happily at a quick rate.

“You must be a human child by the look of you…”

“Physically I look young, yes, but I am quite old. I am over a thousand years old in fact.”

“Oh wow! So humans are immortal?!”

“Well, no, not all humans, but I am a tenno as well-.”

He was cut off by her reaching up and caressing and rubbing his cheek with her hands. She was gentle in her approach and it made him blush a bit as she gazed into his eyes. She couldn’t help but giggle to herself when she noticed this.

“Human skin is so soft and yours is so pale...you must not get enough sunlight. But you...are quite handsome. And since you are more than mature enough. How about you follow me home and I will make sure that you are WELL taken care off. You’d be helping me out as well~.”

She said as she gave him bedroom eyes. This made him blush heavily and his heart pound hard in his chest. He pulls away from her and backs away a bit. Putting his hands up with a nervous smile.

“A-another time. I am still adjusting to this new world. Don’t get me wrong.You are very pretty for what kind of being you are. But I am not looking for anything like...that. But I am flattered. Now if you’ll excuse me..”

He said before running the other way as fast as his legs would carry him. Eventually, he found himself in the middle of the town square and blinked a few times. He scratches his head as he gazes at all the busy ponies going around and doing their shopping and business at their stalls and such. This must be the marketplace. It kind of reminded him of the one in Cetus with how busy it was and the various items they were selling. He bumped into a few of the adult ponies on his way through. It got to the point where he just dashed through the crowd just to get out of it. After he made it out a rather familiar and posh female voice called out to him.

“Ah, darling! You are up and about! I am quite pleased to see you made a full recovery~.”

Void turned to see a rather soft and curvy white mare with sapphire blue eyes and a rather well kept purple mane.and tail. She certainly knew how to dress well too. He smiles up at her and gives a small wave.

“Ah, I remember your voice, but I did not get your name. You were the one who was obsessing over my armor. I never knew it could inspire someone to make clothing from it..”

The mare giggled lightly as looked down at Void, batting his eyes at him flirtatiously. What was it that made them do that at him..?

“Well, it certainly looks good on you. Where are you heading now young stallion?”

“Well, as of right now, I am just looking around at the new town I will be staying in. And I may look young, but I am over a thousand years old...as I have told everyone else I have bumped into.”

Rarity leans down and locks her gaze with his. She could definitely see that he has seen quite more than someone that looked his age should have. She loved the feeling of his bare skin when she placed his cheeks in her gentle hands.

“Oh my...handsome and eternally young. Momma likes very much~.”

She said as she releases him and bows her head in greeting to him. Even giving him a little curtsey

“Well, my name is Rarity. I am the fashionista who owns the carousel boutique not too far from here. Would you be interested in me making a few outfit for you? I’d be more than happy to do so. No charge~.”

He noticed a glint of hope in her eyes, wanting him to say yes more than likely. He knew exactly what she wanted from him in return. And it made him chuckle lightly.

“You just want a new model dontcha? You know, our body structure isn’t too different except for our heads and lower legs. But since you are offering, I would be more than happy.”

She gasps and claps her hands together and bounces on her hooves at the same time. She then grabs his hand and pulls him along with her to the boutique, very excited that he accepted her offer.

“Oooh, excellent! There’s not a moment to lose!”

She said as she nearly made him lose his footing as she dragged him on. What has he just gotten himself into? Clearly, the mare was giddy about giving him some new clothes. Little did he know that he was about to start something that would follow him for a very long time.

--Carousel boutique--

Once they were inside the store, Rarity smiles to Void and points him to the stand in the back of the store in the fitting room. Heading to her sewing room to gather her measuring tape and notepad.

“Alright sweety, strip down to your undergarments and wait for me there so I can measure you. I will be there momentarily.”

She said before disappearing into the room. He was a bit nervous about stripping down for a complete stranger. But he had to remember this was for a professional service. So he had that to remind him. Once he was down to his underwear, he looked at himself in the mirror and noticed he definitely needed more metal on his body. Being asleep for a thousand years really reduces one’s muscle mass. And he was feeling and looking pretty soft. Maybe toning up a little wouldn’t be such a bad idea Having both muscle and void energy would only make him stronger when Hydroid isn’t really needed. He hears hoofsteps coming towards the room. Expecting it to be Rarity, he stands ready for measurements. But it was not her, not at all. In came a filly with a white coat and green eyes, a two-tone lavender and pink mane and tail.

“Rarity, have you seen m-. Oh...my…”

Their eyes met for a moment and then her gaze fell over his body. Void was quick on his feet and vanished from vanished from her sight, using his tenno skills to hide instantly. Sweetie rubbed her eyes as she then heard Rarity come from the other room.

“R-Rarity….I could have sworn I saw somepony in here...nearly naked.”

Rarity’s eyes widen as she runs to the room with the items she retrieved floating behind her. When she sees that no one was there, but Void’s armor was still laid out where he had put it, she pushes Sweetie along away from the doorway and laughs lightly.

“Oh you are just seeing things, darling. Hurry up or you will be late to meet with your friends! I need to work on something for a customer who will be coming by soon.”

Once she had gotten her little sister out of the building and on her way, she returns to the fitting room and looks around. Wherever he was, he is an excellent hider.

“You can come out now, dear. She is gone!”

Void reappears on the stand where he had disappeared. This making Rarity jumps a bit and place a hand over her heart. He had startled her a bit it appeared and she lets out a sigh of relief.

“I..was not aware you could do that! Very quick thinking when my sister came in.”

She said before walking up and beginning to take his measurements. She was quick in doing so, writing down all the numbers on her notepad and mumbling to herself. She couldn’t help but admire his soft and pale skin and how warm it was. It was as if he was a walking furnace and a body pillow all in one. She certainly wouldn’t mind taking him to bed. For snuggles or otherwise.

“Alright, we are done with all that. Anything, in particular, you wish for me to make?”

Void rubbed his chin in thought and nodded to her.

“Well, something that matches with my current color scheme A form-fitting top and maybe something loose for the bottom, but not too loose. And makes sure that is its long sleeve, please. And could you place the emblem that is on my armor somewhere on the outfits as well? I am not asking for too much am I?”

“Oh no no no. You are fine, sweetheart. I did ask what you wanted, and I intend to make something truly wonderful for you.”

After he gets dressed in his armor, he rushes up to Rarity and gives her a warm hug from behind. This caught the mare off-guard as she turned her head quickly to gaze down at him. But his next words made her heart melt and a smile from across her face.

“Thank you for doing this Rarity, I plan on repaying you with the same generosity you have shown me today...I promise.”

She lets out of soft coo and turns around to wrap him in her arms and squeezes him into her soft form. And she didn’t want to let go at all. He was just so...adorable to her and she wanted to keep him all for herself. But she knew he probably had other places to go. So she reluctantly lets him go.

“Come by within a couple of days and I will have these made for you. Be safe out there, sweetie. And don’t be a stranger!”

Void smiles and waves to Rarity on his way out. His adventure for the day continues. The question is, who will he run into next?

Author's Note

Bet you can guess who he will run into next chapter. :P
