(122 votes - 47%) Let’s use Flurry Heart’s power to have some fun with the two Crystal Empire siblings who are playing!

Shining and Flurry heart found their way onto the bleachers near the volleyball field with Fleetfoot and the yellow pegasus. The two were almost clowning around now, using their butts to set up volleys for the other to spike with ferocious intensity… lazily toying with their opponents for the mirth of the crowd, easily outmatching the two amateurs from the Crystal Empire… who seemed none too pleased.

“Dammit, Saffy! I told you to watch out for that serve!” The green-furred unicorn colt snarled backward at his sister after one of Fleetfoot’s serves took a particularly incredible twist, sending the blue unicorn-filly sprawling into the sand.

“I heard you the first time, Topaz.” The filly spat out sand, before dragging herself to all four hooves, “It’s not like we really ever stood a chance against these two, you plot-head!”

“Still! If we don’t try our hardest we’re going to look like a couple of yokels!” The colt reached a hoof out to the filly on the sand, offering to help her get back up, “C’mon sis, we should be able to score at least one point!”

“Well, maybe we could if you stopped shouting at me and focused on your own play, big bro.” The filly spat with derision into the sand, refusing the hoof and standing up on her own.

Shining watched his little girl, who herself was intently staring at the siblings that were still grousing at each other as they picked themselves up and prepared for the final volleyball rally to begin. Flurry was on the edge of her seat, chewing her bottom lip, clearly focused on the duo way more than the action of the volleyball game.

“Something interesting to you?” Shining whispered in Flurry’s left ear.

“Huh? Oh, uh… well, I mean… sort of…” She seemed a bit startled by her father’s intrusion.

“What is it?” Shining grinned. “You can tell me…”

“Dad! I…” Flurry looked left and right, no ponies were in earshot as long as she kept her voice down. “...I dunno, I don’t like to… share what I can see, it doesn’t fell… right.”

“Hmm…” Shining nodded, crossing his arms, “That’s a very wise position to take - you’re respecting the privacy of other ponies. Your mom definitely does the same thing… but…”

“But…?”

“But, she always made an exception for me.” Shining chuckled, scratching the back of his head. “C’mon Flurry, half of the point is for you to feel like you can have fun with your power - being able to share what you see with one or two other ponies won’t hurt anyone. Plus…” Shining leaned in with a grin, “I really wanna know, now!”

Flurry frowned. For a moment Shining thought that this wouldn’t work, that he’d gone too far.

Does Flurry successfully play with and enjoy her power (chance of failure - 40%)? Shining Rolls… success!

“Well… OK…” Flurry’s wings shuffled slightly, staying a bit extended as she leaned in against him. “That green colt there is Topaz Torque… and that blue filly is his little sister, Sapphire Sprinkle.” She pointed with a hoof to each pony as she pointed them out. “There’s something that I’m finding pretty interesting about these two…”

“Yeah?” Shining arched an eyebrow conspiratorially.

“Yeah… I mean.. They’re both outwardly barking and angry at one another…”

“Saffy! Get set, already!” Topaz barked at that exact moment, “Dig your hooves in so you can jump either way!”

“Shut your mouth, Topaz! More like tohp-ass!”

Flurry smirked slightly as the siblings proved her point for her. “But actually… deep down inside… those two love each other a lot.”

“Well… sure…” Shining grinned, “They’re brother and sister… of course, they’re gonna love each other.”

“No, it’s not just that, Dad.” Flurry interjected, “The two of them are so angry at each other because they love the other so much! Topaz thinks his little sister is one of the most capable ponies in the Empire - and he wants her to succeed more than anything… and Sapphire loves her older brother so much - she wants his approval more than any other pony on Equus!”

“You can tell all that with your power?” Shining looked at Flurry with wonder. She simply nodded back at him, with a little blush. “Wow - you’re as good as your mom was when she was in University! It took her a long time before she could decipher those odd feelings into actual thoughts and intentions…”

Flurry blushed slightly, embarrassed at her father’s effusive pride. “Well… uh, thanks… there’s…a little more to my power than mom’s too.”

“More?”

“Well…” Flurry swallowed nervously, tapping her two forehooves together. “Um… Topaz has… uh… well… sometimes he - imagines his little sister when he’s… uh… being private.”

“Being private?” Shining cocked his head. “It’s not unusual for a brother to think about his sister when he’s got some free-time to himse-”

“Hoofing off.” Flurry coughed out. “He’s jerking himself off to thoughts of Sapphire every other night.”

Shining stiffened slightly, a blush of his own forming as he surveyed the two arguing siblings. “Uh… huh… well… y’know Flurry… I hate to admit this but when a colt is about fourteen or fifteen they’re pretty horny - sometimes they can have some pretty crazy fantasies…”

Flurry looked at her father with a wry grin, arching an eyebrow of her own. “Are you telling me that you used to beat off while thinking of Aunty-Twilight when you were a colt?”

“pffffft!” Shining’s ridiculous spit-take was matched only by the ridiculousness of his obvious guilt. Of course there had been those few nights where he’d been desperate for some good clop material, and Twilight had been just so cute at the beach… it hadn’t been his proudest clop, to be sure but… wait… couldn’t Flurry read his emotions!? Oh no…

“N-n-no! Never!” Shining desperately waved his arms in front of him.

“Uh-huh.” Flurry deadpanned, clearly already seeing through her father’s antics. “So you did. Don’t worry, I won’t tell her.”

“S-sorry… colts are… a strange bunch.” Shining hung his head in shame. He hadn’t thought about Twilight like that for… years!

“Well… actually.” Flurry blushed. “I don’t think you should discount just how we fillies can get. I know one particular filly who… uh…” Flurry stammered slightly, her confidence faltering, “Who… clops to the… uh… mental image… of a family member.”

Shining noticed that Flurry seemed to be avoiding his gaze once again, tapping her two front hooves nervously together as she inspected the ground in front of them.

“Who? Sapphire Sprinkle?” Shining asked with a curious look, pointing at the filly as she lunged out in an attempt to return Fleetfoot’s serve, completely failing as she bowled into her brother, causing them both to lose the match as they ended up in a messy pile of tangled limbs, tails, and shouted invectives.

“Who? Oh yeah! Yeah she does… too.”

“Really? That little filly?” Shining asked incredulously. “She looks like she’s barely fourteen!”

“Older than I was…” Flurry muttered.

“Huh?” Shining craned in closer.

“I said: she’s got it worse than her brother…” Flurry blushed and grinned. “That little filly imagines her brother plowing her every night, though she’d never admit it.”

“Huh.” Shining chuckled, looking at the two siblings, who cordially shook the hooves of their competitors and waved to the crowd, before leaving the field with clear displeasure at one another.

“It’s too bad…” Flurry sighed. “With my power, it almost feels like a coiled up rubber band. There’s so much energy there, poised to unwind - like an itch that the universe wants to scratch: those two were meant for each other.”

Shining chewed the inside of his cheek slightly as he considered what he should do next. He knew what Cadence would do in these sorts of situation…

“Well… why don’t you help them to scratch that itch?”

“W-what? D-dad, they’re… brother and sister!” Flurry’s wings had pomf’d out in surprise.

“So what?” Shining considered, doing his best to channel his wife. “You know what your mom always says… love is love.”

Flurry straightened up slightly, looking directly into her father’s eyes as she did so. “Y-you… really mean that, Dad?”

Shining nodded.

Flurry grinned… and began to charge her horn with pink energy.

“I can’t believe you had four service return errors, Saff! That’s three more than you’ve ever had before! EVER!” Topaz growled, stomping ahead of his little sister as they made their way toward the changing room tent that had been set up for the event.

“Maybe that has something to do with the fact we were playing the top-ranked team on the planet?” The filly groaned, swishing her green tail with frustration. “I swear… you just… you’re always such a jerk to me, Topaz!”

She followed behind her brother as he entered the small changing tent. Not noticing the pinkish hue that suddenly enveloped the two of them.

Topaz’s tail flicked up with frustration in front of her. “I’m a jerk!?” She barely heard his shout, stunned instead by the pair of bouncing dark green orbs in front of her. She’d seen her brother’s sack a thousand times before as they’d trained and played together - it was the kind of thing that a pair of loose gym shorts did a poor job of concealing. But sometime about them seemed… juicier than normal.

“You’re the one calling me an ass in front of half the city!” Topaz pulled off his sweaty headband, tossing it to the ground. “How do you think that made me feel?”

Sapphire walked past the headband, her brother’s musky colt-scent tickling her nostrils. Why did he always have to be… so stubborn!? She peeled off her tight athletic top and her spandex bottoms - she didn’t have much in the way of teats yet, so the bikinis that many of the older mares wore were entirely unnecessary for her.

As soon as the wet, black fabric was peeled down her blue legs, the tent was filled with her scent. Like a cloudy fog of sticky filly-juice had erupted from her rear. She felt strands of hot sticky slickness that felt suspiciously unlike sweat. Her mind briefly flashed to the thought that she might be going into heat early… and a worry that her brother might smell her.

But those thoughts were quickly swept away.

‘Let him smell me!’ She sniffed. ‘Maybe then he’ll understand just how badly I want… his… approval.’

“Topaz… I just… I get so… angry when… you…”

“Wh-what’s that smell?” Her brother was sniffing the air, his nostrils flaring wider and wider.

‘Celestia he is so handsome… why doesn’t he understand… just how much I love him?’ Sapphire stumbled forward.

“I-is th-that… you, sis?” Topaz walked forward, grabbing her by the shoulders wıth his big, strong hooves as he looked down at her. “Y-you… smell… amazing….”

“W-why…. Why do you always… yell at me, Topy?” She stared up into her brother’s sparkling blue eyes, his rugged and handsome coltish face… he lips seemed so full… his breath washed over her in waves… she could feel her vision misting up. Something sticky dropped from behind her, slipping out of her fillyhood… but all her attention was now locked on her brother.

“B-because… I love you Saffy… I love you so much…” Her brother embraced her, wrapping his arms tightly around her in a hug. “You are so special… the most special little filly in all of Equestria… and you’re going to do amazing things… I want to help you do those things… not drag you down with a loser like me…” He sniffled, pulling back and looking at her with full intensity.

“T-topy… I… I l-love you so much!” She sniffled, her tongue dropping slightly out of her mouth. “I - I d-do everything I do… j-just to impress you… big brother… I want you to love me…” she closed her eyes, leaning forward… it just felt so… right.

Topaz didn’t resist at all, his lips met hers as the two siblings locked in a passionate kiss.

It was her first ever kiss, and she could only groan as her brother’s tongue slipped inside her teeth, wrestling with hers even as his forehoof gripped the back of her head with passion. It felt like he was sucking all the emotional energy out of her… while also giving her all of his… creating a sum that was more than the parts.

Once again the two siblings collapsed into a heap of limbs, tails, hooves and invectives… though a much sexier heap this time.

She felt like she was burning with thirst, an unquenchable need that throbbed out from her throat and her aching fillyhood. That could only be sated with the pure and complete love of her brother’s emotion. She moaned out as the two tumbled, their passionate kiss finally being broken as their two sweaty bodies wrestled for position against one another.

Her muzzle was her main sensory organ, her rolling eyes far too unfocused and blurry to give her anything meaningful. Instead she relied on the cacophony of interesting smells and sensations as she rolled against her brother’s body on the floor of the tent, a lewd wrestling sprawl that finally ended with her on top of his chest, facing the opposite direction from him, eyes shut tightly as she took in deep draws through her over-excited nostrils.

Her nose was bumped up against something slick, hot, and throbbing. A press of something wet and wriggling against her clenching fillyhood made her mewl and straighten with sensation.

‘Topaz’s tongue is in my pussy!’ The thought alone made her eyes shoot open with happy surprise… and that’s when she saw it.

Her brother’s proud, bouncing colthood… a thick, throbbing black shaft at its base… rising and tapering to an angry mottled-pink and black medial ring… and towering to a pink, drooling flare… that simply dripped with the siren call of pure sexual satisfaction.

“Oh… big brother…”

Flurry and Shining watched from the tent’s entrance silently as the two siblings tumbled against one another, their mouths suckling at each other’s sex, like thirsty dogs lapping at an open garden hose. It was clear that the two were clumsily inexperienced, but Shining couldn’t remember seeing a more intense scene of love-making.

“W-would this kind of thing… happen when you played with mom’s power?” Flurry whispered from his side. From Shining’s perspective, it felt like she was far too close to him, the top of her mane basically nuzzling against the underside of his chin. And yet, despite what would be an uncomfortable situation to be nuzzling his daughter… it felt… right.

Shining returned Flurry’s nuzzle.

“MMm… s-sometimes…” He chuckled awkwardly. “Though… n-never so… young… or… so related….”

“Dad, it feels…. So goood…” Flurry mewled, leaning even harder into him. He could smell Flurry’s scent again… the same musk that had sprayed all over his face in Flurry’s classroom… that spicy vanilla freshness… the scent of his daughter’s cunt.

He swallowed nervously, feeling his cock spill from his sheath. How could he be reacting… like this?

“It’s like… the whole universe is clicking into place…. D-daddy…”Flurry mewled contentedly from beside him. He could feel her tail flick playfully under his body, brushing against his inner thigh on the first swat… then against his stiffening hardness on the second.

“O-oh! S-sorry!” Flurry blushed, taking a step to the side away from him, her eyes looking under his body and probably seeing his half-erect monster.

He stumbled away as well, looking at Flurry, seeing her dock stuck high up in the air, tail flagged. “N-no… th-that’s… m-my fault I…”

A splish sound made him look backward between Flurry’s legs. A small puddle had already formed there. Even as he looked a second streaming splatter shot from his daughter’s backside and splashed on the ground.

“Oh C-Celestia that-that’s embarrassing…” Flurry squeaked, her wings fully outstretched and her face as red as a beet.

“That-that’s OK s-sweetie… it’s just the result of the-”

“Y-YES! BIG BROTHER…. YES!!!”

A nicker twisted both of their heads to look back into the tent.

“R-RUT ME TOPE-Y! RUT ME!”

Sapphire’s little butt was up high in the air, her chest down on the tent floor. Her brother had mounted her with wild abandon, placing one of his green hooves right between her shoulder-blades., pressing her down into the ground with a lusty lack of inhibition that would have made his feral horse-ancestors proud.

“S-Saffy…Y-you're…. So… bucking… y-yes!” Topaz groaned out from between his little sister’s tail, clenched tightly in his teeth.

The hard yank on the filly’s silvery tail perfectly exposed her tight little ass just as her brother pulled out on another outstroke. The little blue filly-pussy was strained to its limit to accept her brother’s colthood. Sapphire’s pink clit winked in and out with excitement as her brother rutted her without much skill… but plenty of youthful exuberance.

“Y-yes! YES! YES!’ The filly squeaked out, tongue darting in and out of her gaping mouth as she clenched and squirted against her brother, his colt-sized ballsack having sent her over the edge as he slapped against her plot with thrust after thrust.

Shining watched with amazement as the filly went transparent before his eyes, not unlike what had happened during FLurry’s crystalling all those years ago. Her whole body sparkled with blue sapphire magic, the clear view letting Shining see the pink end of her brother’s cock driving in and out of the little filly’s vagina, kissing against her womb time and time again.

“S-SAFFY! I’M… I’M GONNA!” Her big brother moaned, his thrusts coming slow and more powerfully, driving deep into his sister’s snatch.

“Inside! Insiiiiiiiiiideunnnghhh……” Sapphire’s command became a long drawn out groan as her brother went transparent as well, his flare expanding deep inside his little sister’s clenching fillyhood, firmly rooting himself in place as he dumped his virile, creamy batter into her fertile womb, filling her transparent uterus up with seed.

“W-w-woah…” Shining mumbled in awe as the two teens collapsed in a heaving heap of contented breathing.

Another impact filled his ears just to his side, and he turned to see his daughter, Flurry, collapsed to the ground herself, her wings twitching and a dopey grin on her face.

“I...I… uhm…. F-finished… d-dad…” She mumbled drunkenly, a dopey, euphoric smile on her face.

Shining chuckled. ‘LIke mother like daughter!’ He powered up his horn, lifting his exhausted daughter in his magical field.’

“Let’s get you home, sweetie.”

Shining placed Flurry gently on her bead. The teen had insisted that she was fine to walk by the time that they had reached the castle, but Shining had insisted, asking for Flurry to humor him since he hadn’t gotten a chance to carry her to bed since she was a wee-foal.

Flurry had giggled and made some joke about how he could carry her to bed more often if it meant so much to him, but by then he’d already deposited her on her freshly made bed.

“There you go, sweetie… I mean… Flurry…”

“Th-that’s ok, dad.” Flurry blushed. “You can call me sweetie, if you really want.” After a quick bluish, he frowned then looked away from Shining, holding her head up with pride. “I mean… I prefer Flurry… but Sweetie is ok… once in a while.”

“Alright then… I had a lot of fun today, Flurry… you’re growing up to be such a clever and wonderful young mare… you really make me proud, you know that?” Shining smiled at his daughter.

“D-dad!” Flurry squeaked, waving a hoof at him with an embarrassed huff. “All I did was get two siblings into a world of trouble… that filly might even be pre-”

“What you did, Flurry… was use your magic for good…. To restore the harmony in Equestria… the harmony that you can feel in your heart. You have no idea how proud that makes me….” Shining smiled once again, before walking to the door. He would never have thought that little Flurry would be so far along in her growth as a princess to be doing the things that her mother hadn’t been able to do until she was almost twice Flurry’s age. As a unicorn that had grown up around princesses, been a brother to a princess, worked with princesses… he understood just how much control and maturity that required.

He was a proud poppa.

“I… I guess…” Flurry mumbled, tracing a hoof on the top of her bed. “I guess… I had fun too… dad….” She smiled ever so slightly. “If you want… you can call that my birthday present…”

BIRTHDAY PRESENT?

A chill went up Shining’s spine.

Flurry’s birthday was in only a couple of days… and he hadn’t gotten her a birthday present! She was an alicorn princess! You can’t just get birthday presents for alicorn princesses at the corner-store the day before… they could take moons of preparation.

“Dad? You’ve got a weird look on your face.” Flurry had a cocked eyebrow. “I mean it… don’t go all crazy trying to do something for my birthday, OK? Just… having you there is enough for me…”

“AHahahahahah! Whatever do you mean, honey?”

“Flurry.” Flurry reminded her father.

“Flurry….? I already have a wonderful and amazing present for you!”

“Uh-huh… Ooookay, dad… just… don’t hurt yourself… OK?”

“Ahahahahahha!” Shining shut the door behind him wit ha sigh. ‘She sounds more like her mother with every passing day.’

Think think think!

Think Shining, think!

What could you get as a present for Flurry!? There’s only one day before her actual birthday party! That’s barely any time to get her a present!

Shining stomped around in his royal bedroom, his face completely terrified. He knew how devious mares were… particularly teenage-filly mares!

If they said that they didn’t want anything for a present… that means that they actually wanted something amazing and unique and expensive and incredibly valuable!!!!

He was doomed!

A note caught the corner of his eye, a small scrap of parchment on Cadence’s nightstand. He trotted over and picked it up… it was a list of things to pick up for Flurry’s birthday.

PERECT! He could get the items on this list and convince his wife to let him give them to their daughter… that would really save his bacon! Let’s see… he recognized his wife’s hoofwriting immediately.

FOR FLURRY ON HER BIRTHDAY:
-Neighctoria’s Secret underwear - black and lacy!
-Estrus control - protection spell tablet - (or should I?)
-Vitality potions - he’ll need them!
-Lube, lube, lube - she’ll need it!

Shining flinched back as he read the note. It was the moment that all fathers dreaded. Confirmation that their little girl was about to become sexually active.

He stomped the floor, his nostrils flaring with anger. Just who the hell did this colt think he was, getting this far along with his daughter, without even meeting her father! He’d put this little punk through his paces… daring to even touch his little girl before they were married an….

Shining sighed.

He knew he wasn’t being a cool dad. Reacting like this would be the exact way to drive Flurry away from him… just as he was making such wonderful progress!

It pained him… physically hurt him to consider this…. But maybe he should actually get the presents on the list for Flurry. Maybe that would be the final bridge to convince his daughter that he was a cool dad?

He sighed again.

Then again, maybe it was creepy for your dad to give you a bunch of sex-related gifts and tell you to go nuts? He certainly wouldn’t mind the excuse to not have to even imagine that some colt that wasn’t him would be touching his little girl…

Maybe he’d be better off trying to get in touch with Twilight Sparkle… seeing if there was a cool archaic and rare spellbook on alicorn power he could give to Flurry…. Or something that she could remember Night Light giving her on her won sixteenth birthday?

Decisions… decisions…

The FLURRY HEART METER goes up by half a point!

Currently the meter is at 9 / 10!

1) LOW/LOW: Let’s just wait until Flurry’s birthday! She told us that we should simply be there for her on her birthday and that the gift of showing her how to use her power for good was our real birthday present to her. We should trust her... (15% chance of failure - VERY LOW reward)

2) MEDIUM/MEDIUM: Let’s go ask Twilight Sparkle what would be a good gift for Flurry Heart. She’s a fantastic aunt…and an alicorn! Surely she must have some idea! Maybe she got something special on her sixteenth birthday? It’s Twilight, what possible risk is there of her doing something silly or unexpected that would have negative ramifications? (30% chance of failure - MED reward)

3) HIGH/HIGH: Cadence is also somepony who knows Flurry really well… and she’s also an alicorn! Even better… she’s already got a list of presents that she’d like to get for Flurry. Sure, it will be tough as a father to give your little girl something that is essentially giving her the green light to have sex with a boy… but maybe that’s what we need to do to show her how much we respect her maturity level? (40% chance of failure - VERY HIGH reward)

Author's Note

STRAW POLL HERE

Vote for your choice! Once we hit 240 total votes I'll write the next chapter!

Sorry for the early technical issues... there was a bug with fimfic and it required re-posting the chapter!

I'm dipping the voting requirement ever so slightly. It was about three days of time in order to hit the level we needed, which is just a touch longer than I was hoping for. So in terms of tuning it feels pretty much right.

I'm hoping to get one or two more updates in before the big finale!

You guys are doing great!

I hope you all enjoyed the little teaser in this chapter... there was a little bit of sexy-times... but most of it was occurring offscreen. This is a departure from my usual, hyper-detailed approach... but I figured that this would be appropriate given that the focus of the story is Flurry and Shining... not two random crystal ponies I dreamed up. (Note to self: ask readers if they want their OCs in your fic instead of dreaming up names next time.)

I'll also note that nobody correctly guessed that Fleetfoot's partner in the volleyball tournament was Apogee from the Space Ponyo universe. A little cameo (which might have been something more if you'd gone with the Fleetfoot route!)

I'm really enjoying the fic, and hope you guys like the choice ahead of you as we turn onto the homestretch!

Are you going to make the right choice? Think hard - it may not be obvious!

As always, commented suggestions are also welcome and can end up becoming a new choice/outcome if good enough
