Chapter 06: Of Sticky Trails and Dinosaur Tails

written by TheCrimsonDM

It was late into the evening by the time everypony went home. Twilight had managed to find her way to the bed and crashed into it, hard. Spike had basically passed out in his little dog bed. It was late, but everyone had a lot of fun. More than just fun though, Twilight had felt the love of her mentor and adopted mom for the first time in ages. She hadn't realized just how much she had needed to hear those words. Laying in bed with her eyes closed she also felt the weight of that oppressive heat washing away. She'd been struggling with it for a while now, but it was all just going away like it was never a problem to begin with. Yet, there was still something inside of her that pained her.

Seeing Rainbow Dash and Rarity so happy together. The soft caring looks they gave one another. The way they danced, held each other, and even kissed. It left a wound in Twilight's heart that bled out and caused her pain. Even if the heat and dirty thoughts were currently abated her heart still felt cold and lonely. She wandered, not for the first time, if perhaps she was too late in getting to be with somepony special.

There was no denying it any longer, she tried to hide it, tried to fight it, tried to beat it away and bury it all. Yet now that she'd seen those two with her very own eyes she could no longer deny the painful feelings welling up inside of her heart. She was in love with them. All of them. Sure the recent heat didn't make things better. Yet she thought about it more. Applejack's sisterly guidance and care. Fluttershy's kind and understanding friendship. Pinkie's need to make everypony smile and laugh. Rainbow Dash's desire to protect everypony. Rarity's bottomless well of generosity and love. She loved all of her friends in a deep and passionate way, and desired nothing more than to be with all of them. Even the ones she was late to the party for.

Then there was Spike, the person who'd stuck by her the longest. Sometimes mature and wise as she was if not more in some ways, or playful and energetic in others. He always did his best to care for her, and she for him. Luna with her love for all things gaming, a nerd as much as her older sister but in ways unique to her. Celestia with her motherly touch, her desire to protect and raise, and the idol in her life. Twilight loved each and every one of them so deeply, her heart cried out in agony for them.

These dreams were not a curse. Not some side effect of heat. They were her deepest desires made manifest. She couldn't ignore them any longer. She just couldn't.

As the world of waking melted away around Twilight, she slowly found herself laying, not in her bed, but on a couch in an all too large room. The walls were seemingly hundreds of feet away from her in any direction, as well as the ceiling. An impossible space the likes of which she could hardly fathom. She sat up and looked around trying to figure out where exactly she could be.

"Oh ho ho, my little pony, have you come to see me once again?" Luna's voice purred from nearby.

Twilight looked over at her. "Are you the real Luna or the dream Luna?"

"Awake in your dreams I see."

Twilight let out a sigh, she'd been defeated in her own attempts to ignore this part of her life. Yet she had one singular hope left to her now. "I accept your offer."

Luna let out a musical giggle, one that sent ripples through the air as musical notes danced around them. "Then so be it, I Luna, princess of the night, will help you woo these ponies. Each, and every one of them."

Fluttershy came home pretty late after the party with Pinkie Pie and the others. She could hardly believe the good news herself. Not only were two of her best friends dating, but Celestia and Luna had moved into Ponyville. This was incredible, if not a bit frightful. Yet she was home now, and had one singular goal in mind before bed. To check up on her new little friend, Steggy the Dinosaur, a ragamuffin that was quite unique.

Looking around the inside of her bedroom upstairs where she had left the green plushie dinosaur, purple spots lining her sides and underbelly, along with soft triangular spines on her back, she eventually found them laying on her bed with their long neck stretched out and looking quite peaceful in their rest. They glanced over at Fluttershy and smiled warmly. Their voice was soft, gentle, and shared a slight timidness that Fluttershy had felt herself many times before. "Hello, Fluttershy. Are you home for the evening?"

"Yes I am. I hope you didn't stay up waiting for me."

"It's okay, I like sleeping next to people more than alone. I need cuddles."

Fluttershy had read about this. Ragamuffins were made to be in some respect toys after all. The needed companionship, cuddles, and plenty of play. Even if the play part often meant more adult activities. Looking at the soft plush critter before her, Fluttershy's mind was filled with thoughts of how she could play with her. Warm and sticky thoughts that made her body wiggle a little. Though Fluttershy wouldn't press the issue, that would be rude, it was stuck in the back of her mind. She was starting to think perhaps she was going into heat now.

Fluttershy closed the door and turned the light off before making her way to the bed and climbing in. Once there Steggy snuggled up next to her and she held the soft sentient toy close to her. It's body was warm, full of the heat from something called the 'stuffing of life' and energy almost leaked out of her. They were designed to be warm, soft, pleasing to the touch. Most of all they were filled with boundless endless love making energy them perfect companions to people who were lonely. If only the God that had made them had left the secrets to their birth behind, perhaps there could be a ragamuffin for every home?

Her little fabric body was about half the size of Fluttershy's. Larger than a pillow, but not so much so she couldn't imagine...

A soft tail moved between Fluttershy's legs and accidentally brushed against something hot and wet making Fluttershy gasp in much-needed pleasure. Steggy's voice spoke softly to her as she said, "Fluttershy, you took me into your home, if you need to have help feeling good, let me help you. Please."

Fluttershy would normally turn down such an offer, but with a tail between her legs and rubbing against her naked rump she found it quite difficult to ignore. It was just like humping a stuffed animal right? Just one that could talk and love her back... right?

Fluttershy let out a sigh of defeat. "Please don't tell anyone about this. N-not that I don't like you, but um, m-my um activities are private."

"I understand. A toy doesn't kiss and tell, Fluttershy."

Fluttershy leaned over and pressed her lips gently to Steggy's. She was surprised to find that those soft felt lips felt incredible and tasted amazing. The plush spines on her back rubbed against Fluttershy's belly as she began moving her hips against Steggy's tail. Grinding herself against the naked fabric and losing herself to the quickly building pleasure. Heat swelling within her as she left a sticky trail of lust behind in her wake. Each thrust of her hips only dragging her closer yet to the brink of release.

After a few minutes Fluttershy reached her peak, a sharp little cry escaped her lips as her entire body shuddered, and a trail of sticky lust was left in the bed and against that tail. Fluttershy closed her eyes and held the ragamuffin close to her. "Th-thank you, Steggy."

She replied softly, "No problem, Fluttershy. I like helping. Good night."

"Good... n... zzzz"

and like that Fluttershy was out like a light.
Though Fluttershy dreamed and dreamed deep, her dreams themselves were filled with strange thoughts. All of them involving being the world's most perfect and prized pet, her owner Twilight Sparkle. Holding her collar in her hoof and always offering the most sincere and loving smile to her favorite pet. All culminating in a trip to the bedroom, where things were only about to get much more spicy.

Twilight woke up the next day, looking around her bedroom she realized she was in fact alone. Luna had promised in her dreams to start the process of readying her soon to be marefriends. Twilight wasn't so sure what that meant but as she looked in the bed she had left a bit of a sticky mess once again. Darn this estrus cycle, she just wanted something that could make it stop. Even having a hug from Celestia had helped last night but did not get rid of the feeling entirely. She could feel it. There was something in the back of her mind.

Looking over she saw Spike get up out of bed around the same time. He rubbed at his eyes and looked over at her and grumbled. "G'morning, Twi."

"Good morning, Spike."

Twilight's eyes looked down a bit at his lap and noticed something sticking up, tall and erect under that blanket. Somehow seeing it made her body grow hot, her mouth wet with saliva and he mind fogging over a little. "Um, I uh... do you need to pee?"

He looked down and quickly covered himself as he glared at her. "D-don't stare at it. I was having weird dreams about y- y- uh Rarity. Not my fault I got morning wood."

"Morning wood? Isn't wood the same no matter what time of day it is?"

He grumbled as he awkwardly stood up and using the blanket wrapped around himself hid his hard erect shame. "At least I'm not the one leaving a flood in the bed every night. Seriously you think I wouldn't notice? I do all the laundry, filly."

He walked away to the bathroom leaving her sitting there trying to process what he meant. Once it clicked her entire face went blushing red and buried her face in her hooves. "Nooo!"

She could swear she heard him laughing at her embarrassment from the bathroom. Well... that was just cruel. It wasn't her fault. She wasn't making fun of him or anything... right? Oh, it probably wasn't very nice to call him out for it after all. She may have to apologize later. It was awkward enough sharing a room with a boy like this, but pointing out his inescapable morning awareness was not the most tactful thing she'd done. Well she could make up for that later. For now she had other goals in mind.

She got up went down the stairs and was preparing a morning cup of coffee as she thought aloud to herself. "Curse this heat cycle. I wish Celestia wouldn't have increased our breeding abilities. I know the population is low, but I want to be free of this curse. I can't even wake up clean. Even if Luna did offer to 'help' somehow."

A familiar, musical, and warm voice purred from nearby. "Oh, my sister offered to help? That is interesting indeed."

Twilight nearly jumped in place looking over to see the mother she'd loved the most sitting in a chair already drinking a cup of tea, reading the morning newspaper and eating a muffin. No not just sitting in a chair. Sitting in Twilight's chair.

"P-p-princess!"

"Dear, I already told you to just call me Celestia. How am I supposed to make this plan work if you all use honorifics."

"Why are you here?"

"Because I made a promise to you, and I never break a promise."
