Luna Plays The Sims 2
By Dexidus
"Luna, I have something for you!"
Luna and Celestia had planned this all-nighter for weeks, and now the time has come. Luna powered on the computer, Celestia brought snacks, and all was well. The only thing they needed was something to do. Luckily, Celestia was digging around in some boxes in her room when she discovered a collection of her old PC games. After rummaging through the box, she found her Sims 2 collection. Base Game, all eight Expansion Packs, all nine Stuff Packs. Celestia remembered how she had had a lot of fun playing them. She was sure Luna would love it.
"What is it, Tia? Do you have something for us to do?" Luna replied, levitating several chips into her mouth.
"Indeed I do. Have a look."
Celestia spread the games across the desk for Luna to see. "The Sims 2?" Luna asked with a mouthful of chips. "Is this more of that rubbish from Equestrian Arts?"
"No, no. This is from back when they didn't make terrible games." Celestia replied before levitating a few chips into her mouth as well.
"Well, I suppose it's worth a try."
"Trust me, you'll love it."
After about an hour of exchanging disks, searching for serial numbers and the occasional snack, the sisters, mostly Luna, were ready to play. Luna clicked on the icon, and waited an unusually long time for the game to load, which was surprising, since Luna owned a top-of-the-line Alienmare computer. After the game finally loaded, the princess of the night picked Ponyville as the neighborhood to play and, after another loading screen, she was greeted by a panoramic view of the town in all its glory. "My, I never realized Ponyville was this big."
"That's what I said when I first saw it. Now, click on the Create-A-Pony button."
"I know how to play, sister. I don't need you telling me things."
"Just figured I'd lend a helping hand."
"Now, who should I make?"
"Why not make Twilight & her friends?"
"Excellent idea!" Luna exclaimed before levitating several more chips into her mouth.
To Celestia's surprise, Luna was exceptionally skilled at making virtual models of ponies. Twilight's eyes were just the right shape, and Fluttershy's coat was the right shade of yellow. She even got Rarity's mane right. Celestia could never get the shape down pat. After another long hour of crafting the Mane Six, Luna was ready to play. She moved them into a large house for eight that Celestia always used, and began to decorate. A few chairs here, a lamp there, as well as everything else a house needs, and she was all set. After levitating a chip into her mouth, Luna clicked the play button.
"Now, let's see. Who should do what? Well, for one thing, Twilight can sit around reading skill books all day. That's kind of what she does. I'll get her employed in the Science career. Rainbow Dash and Applejack can work in Athletics, since they like that kind of stuff. I'll also be sure to make them bitter rivals, since that's what they do, too. As for Rarity, she would sure like that sewing table. Fluttershy can tend to the flowers, and Pinkie Pie can make friends." Luna said to herself and her sister, smirking at the end.
It didn't take long for Luna's mischievous side to kick in.
"Luna, why are Applejack and Rainbow Dash constantly fighting in the middle of the living room?" Celestia asked before pouring herself a cup of club soda. "I mean, I know they have a rivalry, but it's not like they hate each other."
"Meh, who knows?" Luna replied, pouring herself a glass.
This wasn't the only thing Luna did that was rather out of proportion. She also liked to start unnecessary romance, even though there were no colts in the house, nor did they know any that well. "Luna, why are Twilight and Rainbow Dash making out on the couch?"
"Because it's fun!"
"Fun? They're both mares, how can they possibly-- oh..."
"Now you get it," Luna added, smiling, before sipping her club soda.
The antics didn't stop there. Fluttershy would always be lounging in the hot tub during a thunderstorm, only to get herself shocked time and time again. Applejack, the cook of the house, would always use poor-quality apples in the dishes (Thanks to Fluttershy's hot tub fetish leaving the garden in disarray) which led to everypony throwing up all over the place. Twilight and Dashie would make out at the most random of times, with Pinkie Pie cheering in the background. Luna was having the time of her life, and Celestia enjoyed watching. Then, Celestia noticed something off. Luna was getting Twilight and Dashie in bed together. "Ehm, Luna, what are you doing?" She asked.
"What does it look like I'm doing, Tia? I'm having them mate!"
"Why would you do that?"
"I plan on having children, that's why!"
"But, they're both mares. It's impossible."
"Not with cheats it's not, Tia."
With a snicker, Luna activated debugging cheats, and after Twilight and Dashie had some extra spicy lovin', Luna impregnated Twilight with Dash's genetics. "I do wonder what their children would look like," Tia pondered.
"So do I. Only time will tell."
Soon enough, Twilight was expressing all the traits of an expecting mother: moodiness, lack of ability to do anything fun, and abdominal growth. After 3 days, the new foal came. A girl. How sweet. Purple coat, rainbow mane, wings, and a horn. Natural-born alicorns are few and far between. The resulting squee could be heard from miles around. But, due to Luna's "unique" way of tending to the household, the Social Worker ended up taking her away. Luna was pretty dissapointed after that, but kept on playing. All was well, even with the foal gone.
That is, until Luna thought it was okay to put a rug near a fireplace. Soon after, a fire erupted. "Oh, good heavens! Twilight, Rainbow Dash, get off the couch and get out of there!" Luna exclaimed after spitting a mouthful of club soda onto the carpet.
Princess Cadence, who was using the guest room next to Luna's room after she decided to spend the night, was suddenly awoken when she heard Luna shouting at her computer with the Royal Canterlot Voice: "TWILIGHT SPARKLE, STOP SCREAMING AT THE FIRE AND CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT! ARE YOU MAD? NO, APPLEJACK, DON'T STAND IN IT! NOW YOU'RE BURNING ALIVE! HAVE YOU LOST YOUR MIND!?"
Cadence pondered as to why Luna was saying that before covering her face with a pillow.
Things only went downhill from there. After the Grim Reaper came for the ashes of Applejack, Rainbow Dash went for a swim. Out of money and not paying attention to the consequences, Luna sold the pool ladder not too long after Dashie got in. Already tired, it didn't take virtual Dash long to start drowning. All the while, Pinkie Pie was laying in the grass, gazing up at the sky, when out of nowhere a satellite falls on her. Hoping it couldn't get any worse, Luna didn't realize that the fire had engulfed the fridge. With nothing to eat, Twilight keeled over and starved to death. To top things off, Fluttershy had been electrocuted to death by all the hot tub shocks. The only one left was Rarity, who just happened to see everyone's ghost that night. After being scared so much, Rarity kicked the bucket, too. "Well, everyone died. I suppose that's the end of that," Luna declared.
"So, now what?" Tia asked before levitating a few chips into her mouth.
"How about some bad TV?"
"Sounds good."
