Dazzlings Fusion

“God, I'm bored.” Aria stared at the crystals, incense, beads, and worst of all, the posters about protecting the environment, saving the whales, and other other kinds of crap she couldn't be bothered with. No, when she looked at society, she wanted to tear it all down, start all over, or maybe salt the earth out of sheer spite. It all depended on her mood.

Remain here much longer and she'd surely go stir crazy! “How about we go out for some tacos?” It was almost like Sonata could read her mind now that they were connected. She started to pull towards the exit.

“Not in the mood,” snapped Aria. They were tugging back-and-forth, almost losing their footing.

“Think I have, like, most of the materials here.” Tree Hugger wandered into the living room stark naked, seemingly unconcerned with whoever saw her by the crooked smile plastered on her face. “I'll whip you chickadees up a primo meal. No meat, I'm afraid, but I have some organic stuff that's pretty close!”

“That's quite a bush,” said Sonata with wide eyes staring at the forest that was the hippie's crotch.

“Thanks, I think? I prefer a more natural look, you know? Flutters made me shave my armpits, though.” She snapped up a frilly apron with a heart emblazoned on it and tied it into place. “I like to wear this when I'm cookin' for my babe.”

“I hate everything about you,” mumbled Aria under her breath. However when Hugs was soon at work in the kitchen, the air suffused with the aroma of chopped lettuce, tomatoes, onions, cheeses, sour cream, and guacamole, she had to admit she was quite the cook. Not to mention she had quite a nice butt, which she shook with lazy sways while she hummed and chopped away.

Sonata tittered. “Ooh, like what you see, sis?”

“Shut up.” Aria's face burned. The pair moved in unison and sampled a few of the ingredients. “Not bad. Nice buns, too.”

Their stomach growled. Hands dug into tofu and soy, shoveling wads into their mouths. The front door tumbled open, and the sisters almost fell over, spinning to look. Fluttershy strode in, carrying an unconscious Adagio. “I hurried home. It was either here or a hospital, and somehow I had the feeling she needed to be with her siblings...” She placed her on a couch.

“Oh no!” Sonata peered over her. “Is-is she...?!”

“She's fine,” snapped Aria to hide her own concern. “Gotta be! Wake up, you-”

“Easy,” called Hugs from the kitchen. “I'll fetch her some water!”

Fluttershy chewed her lower lip. “She's stable, but-” She took the jug of water and washcloth from her girlfriend, and applied a few dabs to her patient's forehead. “Oh, what should we do? I know about taking care of animals, but-”

“I...I'll be fine,” murmured Adagio who blinked and barely opened her eyes. “Just...winded, is all.” She offered her hands to Aria and Sonata who bent over and took them. “Thanks.” She managed a weak smile. “Feeling better already.”

Aria smiled too despite herself. “But why? It doesn't make any sense!”

“Aw, is big sis lonely?” Sonata tittered.

“You're not far from the truth, dear!” Everyone looked around for the source of the voice. It was masculine but cultured with a heavy touch of playfulness. “Oh, don't mind me. Just wanted to check in on my lovely Fluttershy!”

“Discord!” Fluttershy folded her arms and tapped a foot. “Where are you hiding now?”

“I'm very close. Actually, I've been with you and Adagio for quite some time...” He chuckled and his mismatched eyes drifted across their clothes. “Sorry about the wild goose chase to locate me, but I was having way too much fun!”

“Now hold up buster, I told you not to do that anymore!”

“Okay, fine.” The eyes sprung from their garments and a tall wiry man materialized, half his suit sharp and with dull colors, the other portion shabby and bright with a checker pattern. He stroked his thin beard, his hair a disheveled mess. “Anyhow, it's simple. Until the Dazzlings are of one mind they can't afford to be separated for long.”

“Of one mind? Of course,” whispered Adagio. “Much as I hate to admit it, I...I don't want to be alone.”

Sonata beamed so wide she flashed her pearly white teeth. “See? We'll always be together!”

“Please, no...” Aria rolled her eyes. “Just...don't scare us like that again, okay dumbass?”

“I'll try.” Adagio laughed. “So does this mean we're stuck like this forever?”

“Not sure there's a way to reverse it,” admitted Discord. “I put some of my power into certain trinkets I passed to Fluttershy. Equestrian magic is commonplace in the dimension I come from! However, you may be able to overcome it naturally. Allow me to explain. It's your subconscious desire to be united which kicked in the amulet's power, so perhaps the reverse is true?”

“So, learn to be more independent and we'll be able to spend more time apart.” Adagio nodded to herself.

“Doesn't sound too difficult,” said Aria.

“I dunno, I kind of like this new shape? It's totes the besties!” Sonata snickered.

“That'll be up to you three! Nothing more I can do. Well, I'd better be off!” Discord landed a playful swat on Shy's butt.

“Eep! Discord!” His cackles echoed through the room when he teleported away. “I swear, that man!” She smoothed down her dress with a thick blush. “Probably touched us up the entire time he hitched a ride...”

Adagio stroked her chin. “Well, that explains the strange powers, at least. Sort of...” For all she knew this Discord wasn't even from her Equestria, but was perhaps some parallel version who could travel between dimensions? She figured it wouldn't do to think about it too hard. It would just drive her crazy, and they had more pressing matters at the moment.

“Tacos are ready.” Tree Hugger started to lay out plates covered in food and condiments on a short table.

“Yay!” Sonata hopped up-and-down, their shared hefty body wobbling all over and shaking the cottage.

“Chill out! Crap! Now I'm starting to talk like that hippie! Got to get out of here soon,” cried Aria.

“Yes, we don't want to overstay our welcome. Thank you for everything,” said Adagio who slowly rose to join them. They took seats on the floor around the small feast. “Mmm, they do smell nice. You're quite a cook, Hugs.”

“That's why she keeps me around. Right, babe?” She wrapped an arm around Shy's waist who blushed, the hippie still nude save for the frilly apron. “Eat all you like chickadees, I have more ready to be whipped up at a like moment's notice!”

The group chatted while they chowed down. However the Dazzlings were still divided on whether to remain united or separate. Perhaps they would simply take turns? Adagio certainly felt more complete with them, especially since her wider form reminded her of how she'd been as a siren. Sonata was rarely alone as it was so that proved no real surprise.

But what about Aria? Would she be on board for the long haul? Well, perhaps between the three of them they'd be able to find a compromise...eventually. For now they'd simply fill their bellies and enjoy one-another's company.
