Sleipnir Colony - A Short Story Collection

“Red? Reeeeeeddddddddd.” Foundy could tell the stallion wasn’t paying her much attention, he had been parked outside her office for the last 10 minutes after getting to work. He seemed even more distracted than he usually was. Finally he came to and looked at her, although it wasn’t exactly at her. His gaze was distant, like he was looking off somewhere.

“Oh, sorry Foundy. Personal life lately has me...distracted.” he confessed, trying to put his mind back on the job.

“I can tell. Pad driving course went okay didn’t it?” she asked. She knew it had, she had a copy of the certificate that he had given over to her now that he had finished it.

“Oh yeah, it’s not that, it’s something else.” he said with a small sigh. Foundy often didn’t like to get involved with the personal lives of her employees but she had to ask.

“What is it?”

“Uhm, I met a mare at the course. She’s really nice…” he said, clearly not wanting to reveal more without a bit of a push.

“Who is she?” Foundy asked, she didn’t mind a bit of idle chat, especially if it got Red’s mind back on his work.

“She’s called Ivory, well Ivory Archer for full. I think she likes me, um.” he paused for a moment. “I’m just...lost.”

“Lost?” now Foundy was curious.

“I’ve never had a marefriend.” he said. “We’ve been out on some dates, which was great, I even went over to her place for a meal a short while ago which was also divine. She’s a great cook too.” he explained.

“Sounds like every stallions dream. Is she big?” the question sent Red into a bit of a blush.

“B-big? Well, yeah. Like most ponies here.” he replied.

“So what’s the problem? She cooks for you, you go on dates. How are you lost?” Foundy asked.

“Well, last time it was leading somewhere. Talks of lingerie and other uh, stuff. In the end after a little foreplay though we both just fell asleep. It didn’t actually lead to anything. She made us a big meal.” he continued to say. “But she wants to meet again soon. I’m not sure what to do.”

Foundy just grinned, Red wasn’t a young stallion. Well. He was only 31. He wasn't old either. Somewhere in between. But it was clear he wasn’t very experienced with the fairer sex.

“You’ve never had a marefriend before? I’d have thought with that tush of yours they’d have been all over you years ago. Stallions even.” Foundy said rather nonchalantly, it made Red blush again. She did like to give him a small tease here and there.

“Well uh, that’s why she likes me, she admitted. And it wasn’t that big before, it’s only recently when I started putting on more weight…” he tried to protest, Foundy was having none of it.

“C’mon Red, it has always been huge. It was only a matter of time before some mare or stallion approached you because of it. I’m just surprised it has actually taken this long.” she said.

“Well I’m just shy and I like my personal space.” Red replied.

“Yeah, hah. With that butt you need plenty of it.” Foundy giggled, she was enjoying this slightly now. “Anyway back on topic. So the last time you were together, what did she ask? I’ve been with my fair share of partners. Maybe I can give you some advice.”

“Oh uh, that’s kind.” Red sputtered slightly, he wasn’t expecting his boss to be giving him advice for the bedroom. But he thought why not take advantage of it? “We did a little last time, I uh, played with her folds. She gave the biggest part of me a big squeeze. It was nice, there was some other stuff too.” he said. “But next time she was talking about sexy lingerie, not just for her, for us both.” he finished.

“And?” was all Foundy said, it caught Red a little off-guard.

“What do you mean ‘And?’. I wasn’t expecting to have to actually wear it, I think I was just caught in the moment.” he said.

“Well why don’t you try it? I mean if it’s something you’re really not comfortable with you could always say no, but I bet she just wants to dress that pretty butt of yours up. I’m imagining maybe some panties, could even be garter straps. Socks, that sort of thing. I wonder if they even make leotards that size...” Foundy carried on saying without batting an eyelid whilst Red blushed, not believing she was talking so casually about all this stuff. “That’s pretty tame to be honest. There’s plenty of other things to do but it depends what she wants. I doubt she’d be hooking you up to a milking machine on the first fun night.” she laughed.

“M-milking machine?” he gasped, the stallions brain starting to work overtime. Foundy seeing him panic a little tried her best to bring the conversation back to normality a little.

“I’m kidding honey, but you never know. That’s not really first time in bed together stuff you just ask a pony to do. Maybe later.” she said, seeing him calm. “I say go for it. I mean I think you’ll enjoy it, she probably will too. She wouldn’t be asking if she didn’t think it wasn’t mutual.” the mare said. “I can tell by the way you talk about her and how you’re totally not focused right now that she’s really on your mind.” she said.

“Huh? Oh yeah, sorry. I guess I have been distracted.” he said.

“More than usual, but at least you haven’t crashed into anything yet. I guess the piloting course worked.” the mare replied. “Look, approach her. Make the date. Mares like that. Just go with the flow. I can’t believe at your age you still haven’t done it. You gotta enjoy yourself in other ways that don’t involve stuffing your face.” she said. “Ponies have other needs besides food.”

He thought about what Foundy was saying. She was right, of course, it was why she’s the boss. She was nearly always right. Her advice seemed to make sense too.

“Alright, I’ll call her after work and ask when to come over. Should um...should I bring anything?” he asked. He really did seem a bit naive about all this.

“I mean maybe some chocolates but I think if I understand correctly how you’ve described her interest in you, you only need to bring that butt of yours and she’ll be plenty occupied.” she teased again, it was so easy to make him blush.

“Oh right uh, yeah. Well thanks Foundy. Guess I should get to work huh?” the stallion said, flicking his pad back into drive mode so it went into a hover again.

“Damn right you should, your staff have been waiting for you to get their flanks on the job for ten minutes now, get going and get that truck unloaded. We’ve got houses to build don’t forget.” she said, now that she had him thinking about tonight he could focus on today. Rather than daydreaming about all the worries. Sometimes being a boss meant that you had to look into your staff's personal lives too and help them out if it was distracting them from work. Red now seemed to be fine and she watched as he piloted his pad away, the mare herself going back to a small amount of deskwork she had to get on with.

Red himself knew exactly what to do. Tonight he’d call Ivory and set up the date, whereas before he was a little worried he was now looking forward to it. Excited even, he wondered what sort of lingerie she would have lined up...
