Wish Gone Awry. Enter Equestria! Enter New Life!

As the group walked back to Ponyville, Julius got slightly lost in his thoughts, mentally preparing himself for what he'd face with Lyra. It felt a bit odd to him that a random mare he barely knew at all would, seeming out of nowhere, request to rut with him. Weighing his options in his mind, Julius nearly asked Applejack and Big Mac, but the presence of Apple Bloom stopped that. Still, though, the thought did give Julius an idea.

"So, Lyra was asking about me," Julius started to say, "what can you tell me about her."

"Well, Lyra is a bit strange," Applejack told Julius as Big Mac nodded. "Sure, she's a skilled musician and a pretty fine artist," Applejack said, starting to trail off.

"OK, so she's creative; what's strange about that?" Julius asked as he looked at Applejack.

"Well, she's creative because she's an anthro," Applejack said, making Julius recoil. "You heard of them?" Applejack asked in surprise.

"Yes, although I think that it has a different meaning to me. What does it mean here?" Julius cleared up.

"Well, there's a comic series based out of Vanhoover called Our Anthros. I'm not too sure what it's about, but I have seen fanart. The creatures in it all stand on two feet, they all have two arms, and well, they kind of looks like a mix between you and a pony," Applejack said as she scratched her memory. "Honestly, I don't know too much about it."

"I know a bit more about it!" Apple Bloom chirped up as she trotted beside Julius.

"How do you know about it?" Julius asked as he turned to the filly.

"Some of the colts in my class talk about it," Apple Bloom clears up for Julius. "Our Anthros is a comic for young colts. It's about six anthro friends living their lives. In every issue, they have some problem, based on something that could happen, only exaggerated," Apple Bloom explained.

"Thank you, sugarcube. Our Anthros has gotten a following among mares; Lyra's one of them. From the art that I've seen, you look a lot like a creature that could be from the comic," Applejack told Julius.

"So," Julius started to laugh, "Lyra is this world's equivalent of a furry," Julius laughed, "nice."

"What's a furry?" Applejack and Apple Bloom asked.

"Don't ask about that," Julius swiftly waved off. As the group entered the outskirts of Ponyville, Julius pulled Applejack aside. "Hey, Applejack," Julius somewhat awkwardly whispered.

"What is it?" Applejack asked as she looked around him.

"How much should Lyra pay?" Julius asked while making sure that Apple Bloom wasn't listening.

"From the looks of it, Lyra was thinking several hundred. That sounds about right," Applejack whispered back. "Not a good time though, Apple Bloom is near," Applejack told Julius as she walked back to Apple Bloom and Big Mac.

"Fair," Julius agreed as he followed Applejack back. Walking a short way down the main road into town, Julius parted ways with the Apple siblings. Julius to go to Sweetie Drops' Candies, the Apple siblings, to find out more about their parentage. Walking through Ponyville, Julius looked at the shop signs. Each sign felt either like a pun in some way or like it was way too on the nose. Like the smith, Barding, and Guarding, or the bookstore, Books, Books, Books! Shaking his head as he walked by, Julius had a good bit of the street to himself; most of the ponies gave him a wide enough berth. Walking through town, Julius made his way to the cafe he and Fluttershy were at a few days ago, figuring that all the food places would be around the same area.

"There it is," Julius said as he spotted a sign with 'Sweetie Drops' Candies' written on it. Walking towards the shop, Julius looked over the sign. It was painted light pink, with baby blue stripes coiling around the edges, while the writing was a bright yellow. The sign felt like it fit a confectionery shop. Walking up to the door, Julius entered the shop.

"Welcome to Sweetie Drops' Candies," a mare greeted from another room as she heard a bell ring. "What can I? Oh, you're here for Lyra," the mare said as she walked around the counter. "I'm Bon Bon, the owner and Lyra's housemate, as well as her best friend," Bon Bon greeted as she walked towards Julius.

"Bon Bon? I'm sorry, but with the name, I thought that the owner would have been Sweetie Drops," Julius chuckled somewhat awkwardly. "I'm Julius. I don't remember seeing you at the party a few days ago," Julius returned the greeting as he walked up to Bon Bon.

"I get that; Sweetie Drops was one of my herd mothers," Bon Bon explained as she motioned for Julius to follow her. "I had business in Canterlot the day of the party, but Lyra told me about it. Honestly, I'm surprised she waited so long for this," Bon Bon chuckled as she led Julius towards Lyra's room.

"Because she's an anthro?" Julius asked as he followed Bon Bon.

"Oh, you know about them? Yes, because she's an anthro," Bon Bon shook her head while chuckling. "Lyra isn't overly into ponies, but she's into other creatures, like minotaurs and dragons that stand on their hind legs," Bon Bon explained. "Lyra is out picking a few things up; she'll be back soon, though," Bon Bon explained as she opened the door to Lyra's room.

"Alright, guess I'll wait here then," Julius said as he looked around the room. Spotting several comics lying around, Julius picked one of them up. "I take it this is Our Anthros?" Julius asked as he picked up the comic.

"Yeah, issue thirty-three, I think," Bon Bon said as she looked at the comic. "If I remember, that's the one where Green Seas' boat gets damaged, and he has to ask his friends for help," Bon Bon said, sounding very unsure.

"Wait, are you an anthro too?" Julius asked, shocked at what Bon Bon just said.

"Nope, though I have read a few Our Anthros comics with Lyra," Bon Bon explained. "Honestly, the artwork is outstanding, and the storytelling is pretty well done, but it's not for me; it feels far too coltish," Bon Bon told Julius as she looked over the cover of the comic. "Yeah, that's the boat one."

"That's fair," Julius said as he flipped through a few pages. "Think Lyra would mind if I read a few?" Julius asked as he already started to read the comic.

"I don't see why not," Bon Bon said as she turned around. "You'll be fine up here, right? I have to go back downstairs and tend to the shop," Bon Bon said as she started to leave the room.

"Yup, I'll be fine," Julius told Bon Bon as she left Lyra's room. Reading through the comic, Julius did laugh a few times. In many ways, it did feel like it was targeted towards a younger audience, but it felt endearing nonetheless. It was a pleasant, quick read. Setting the comic down, Julius looked around Lyra's room. It appeared almost precisely how he thought it would, except there were many clothes, primarily costumes, and a few instruments. Walking up to the instruments, Julius picked up a lyre.

"How do you play the lyre with hooves?" Julius asked himself as he plucked a few strings. The lyre played no music but instead played a crude noise. "Yup, still no ear for music," Julius laughed as he set the lyre down.

"I'd say," Lyra chuckled from behind Julius. "Not the worst I've heard, but still not good at all," Lyra chuckled as she placed a bag down on her dresser. "Here, give it to me," Lyra said as she grabbed the lyre with her magic.

"Oh, right, magic," Julius slowly said as he facepalmed. "That one is on me; somehow, I completely forgot," Julius said as he shook his head in his palm.

"Hah, not sure how. Our horns are quite prominent," Lyra laughed as she started to play some music. A golden magical aura masterfully plucked each of the lyre's strings, creating a beautiful melody. Alluring music came from the lyre that filled the whole shop, drawing a few customers from the street. After playing a short song, Lyra set the lyre back down. "So, how was it?"

"Very good," Julius applauded. "You must have gone to school for a long time to learn to play that well," Julius said as he lightly rubbed Lyra's mane.

"Well, school and natural talent," Lyra nearly purred as she nuzzled her head into Julius's palm. "My cutie mark, remember," Lyra cooed as she showed her flank to Julius.

"Right, a lyre," Julius said as he looked at Lyra's cutie mark. Sharing a few moments of patting, Julius finally spoke up. "I take it you know why I'm here," Julius said as he looked at Lyra's bed.

"Yeah," Lyra said as she slightly looked away. "Sorry for stepping out, but I desperately needed something," Lyra apologized as she magically ruffled through the bag.

"What did you need?" Julius asked as Lyra levitated a bottle out of the bag and towards her.

"Well, since we are going to do this," Lyra started to say, her voice slightly trailing off, "I looked for some birth control, but, heh, I uhhh, I ran out," Lyra nervously laughed as she took out a green jellylike pill from the bottle.

"Ah, good point," Julius said as he looked at one of the pills. "They kind of look like green jellybeans," Julius commented as he closely looked at a pill, "what are those deep green specks in them?"

"Oh, those are a few of the herbs that weren't fully pulped," Lyra told Julius as she swallowed one of the pills. "Yeah, they look like jellybeans, but trust me, they don't taste like them," Lyra chuckled. "Trust me, every mare made the mistake of biting into one of the pills; they taste awful. They still work if you bite them, but it's better not to bite into them, avoid the horrible taste and all," Lyra told Julius as she made herself comfortable on her bed. "So, how do you want to do this?" Lyra asked before casting a spell on the room.

"Well, how about some foreplay at to start, then we can go at it, maybe mix in some cosplay too," Julius winks while looking at Lyra's costumes.

"Hah, thanks, but washing stains out of those costumes is brutal. Besides, Rarity would kill me if I got them dirty like that," Lyra laughed as she slowly raised her hindquarters and tail. "Not worry about noise, I cast a spell of silence, nocreature can hear what happens in this room, and we can't hear anything outside it," Lyra winks while shaking her hips, her marehood right in front of Julius.

"Convenient spell you have there," Julius smirked as he ran his hands over Lyra's flanks. "Guessing that spell is common?" Julius asked as he traced his fingers over Lyra's cutie marks.

"Every unicorn learns it at - oh Celestia, yes!" Lyra moaned as she felt Julius's tongue rub against her pussy, the tip of his tongue flicking against her clit.

"Oh, so I go to Celestia to learn this spell," Julius smirks as he lightly bites Lyra's clit. "I wonder why she teaches it," Julius playfully said as his tongue traced Lyra's lower lips.

"She, she, she," Lyra could only stammer as she felt Julius's tongue lavish her pussy. Giving up on trying to speak, Lyra just buried her head into her pillow, surrendering herself to the pleasure. Smirking, Julius slid his hands to Lyra's teats, the soft mounds resting gently in Julius's light grasp. Softly fondling the motherly mounds, Julius teasing the perky teats while his tongue lavished her quivering pussy.

Lyra's head swayed side to side in pleasure as Julius assaulted her body's sweet spots, her pussy, and teats getting ravaged by the human's ministrations. Julius's hands had a pleasant roughness to them, oddly soft yet rugged; it felt as if ribbed velvet was caressing her aching teats, like if the roughness of a minotaur's hands met with the smooth under scales of a dragon's palm. Then his tongue, while smaller than other creatures, was defter and cooler; the mild yet noticeable difference felt like his tongue was sending soft teasing shocks through her pussy. With each lick, each rub of his hands, Julius brung Lyra closer and closer to orgasm. Sensing her orgasm approaching, Julius quickly pulled away from Lyra's body.

"Hey," Lyra whiningly moaned, "why'd you pull away?" Lyra moaned as she rolled over. As Lyra rolled over, she saw Julius start to strip, his shirt already off. Lyra laid on the bed, legs spread, and watched as Julius fully stripped. Lyra watched lustfully, and her eyes were instantly drawn to Julius's crotch as he freed his cock. Julius's cock, only slightly hard, throbbed to life in front of Lyra.

"Well, what do you think?" Julius playfully smirked as his cock throbbed to life in front of Lyra's eyes.

"This should tell you enough," Lyra playfully winked as she wiggled her rump, her pussy drenched.

"You need this, don't you?" Julius teased as he rubbed the underside of his cock against Lyra's drenched pussy.

"Oh, you tease," Lyra playfully cooed. "Just buck my brains out already," Lyra pleaded as she rubbed her pussy against Julius's cock.

"Normally I wouldn't, but just for you," Julius coyly winked as he slowly slid the tip of his cock into Lyra's pussy. Inch by throbbing inch, Julius buried his cock in Lyra's pussy. Lyra's quivering marehood felt quite a bit different from the other mares. While still very tight, it felt like it was more used to larger cocks. Comfortably burying his cock inside Lyra's pussy, Julius looked down at her. "A size queen, are you?" Julius teased.

"Dragons and minotaurs," Lyra winked as she clenched her pussy around Julius's cock. "Now, buck me," Lyra lustfully commanded as she hugged Julius with all her legs.

"Well, aren't you a thirsty mare," Julius lustfully teased as he felt Lyra's legs tightly hug him. Slowly humping Lyra's drench pussy, Julius's cock ravaged the lusty mare's aching marehood. Lyra's pussy nearly perfectly molded itself to Julius's throbbing cock. The feeling was different but pleasant; unlike the other mares' pussies, Lyra's near-perfectly molded pussy readily took Julius's cock.

"Oh, yes," Lyra moaned in pleasure as she felt Julius's cock kiss her cervix. "You have no idea how much I needed this," Lyra nearly sang as she savored the feeling of Julius's cock filling her marehood.

"I can imagine," Julius grinned back as he felt the wet embrace of Lyra's pussy. Bringing his head down, Julius lightly kissed Lyra as he eagerly humped Lyra's pussy. The tongues of man and mare entwined as the two lustfully pleasured each other. With every thrust, Julius's twitching cock battered Lyra's aching pussy, slamming into her sweet spot and her cervix. A lusty musk and the sounds of passionate sex filled the room as the two ravaged each other. Thrust by thrust, Julius felt his orgasm approaching, while Lyra's seemed to be constantly orgasming, her love juices flowing freely, like the flow of a great river. Breaking their kiss, Julius panted heavily.

"Soon," Julius lustfully panted as he held back his orgasm.

"Inside," Lyra moaned through gritted teeth, "give me all of it! Fill me up with your human cum," Lyra lustfully moaned as she lightly bit her lower lip.

"If you insist," Julius grunted as he thrust his cock fully inside Lyra's pussy. Feeling the tip of his cock kiss Lyra's cervix, Julius held it there and flooded her pussy with his cum. Thick shots of cum blasted into the depths of Lyra's pussy as Julius lustfully filled Lyra's pussy. As Julius's thick cum flooded her pussy, Lyra felt her belly grow a bit. Feeling the warmth fill her marehood, Lyra threw her head back as another orgasm overtook her. Basking in their shared orgasm, Julius fell on top of Lyra as he rode his orgasm down.

"So, what now?" Julius asked as he rolled over to lay next to Lyra.

"If it's OK with you, I'd like to stay like this for a while," Lyra cooed as she nuzzled her muzzle into Julius's chest.

"Yeah, I think I'd like that," Julius sighed as he relaxed. Taking Lyra in a tight embrace, Julius lightly kissed Lyra's forehead as the two basked in the afterglow of their lovemaking.
