Conventional Means

Manehattan, cornerstone of Equestrian gaming and milestone in entertainment quality. When you talked about stars and fame, you talked about Manehattan and all its wondrous glory. It had the shopping malls, the glamorous life of celebrities and all of the architectural wonders of skyscrapers as far as the eye could see.

Sometimes, it was good to get out of Ranchtown. They saw an opportunity to have some fun and decided to pack up and go.Everything could go wrong, so they decided to make a big group out of it. This was the gaming capital of Equestria and Voltage couldn’t bed Fable harder to take her with him, even when he’d already agreed that she could go, she felt she needed to convince him more. He even brought Spark.

For some reason, this trip felt different. A lot had happened over the course of the years and Fable felt like he was finally able to put it all behind him. With his new job taking off and his friends and family scattering to the four winds, it was time to see who was left in his life. To say Ember was excited about this would have been a massive understatement and he had to admit, BloodCount had to be a favorite of his for a long time.

Night Coder had spent the better part of a year programming, reprogramming, testing, editing and reworking this ridiculously complex engine for this virtual game that was on the very horizon. BloodCount finally gave them the license to create their dream game and none of them passed up the chance. Night was probably conscious for around an hour of the trip to the convention.

The hotel was gigantic and about as modern as it got. All of them could tell that the luxury was built in just from the outside. The bricks were washed to a sheen and the windows looked as if they weren’t there, they were so clean.

“Look, I don’t know what to tell you, there’s just too much going on.” Fable finally admitted before grabbing his gym bag, which was full of his essential toiletries and preferred t-shirts and underwear. Spark took the side of the luggage carrier and pushed it as Night began to straighten the baggage to stand upright. “I mean when is the last time you heard from Winter since he opened that damn strip club of his?”

“I don’t know what to tell you, Fable, people get distracted and life just takes hold sometimes.” Spark said as he rolled the cart and eyed Night Coder, who was still closing one of the luggages and opening another. “Have you been helped?”

“I’m just looking for my phone charger. I’m not going to feel like looking for it when I hit that damn bed. How long were we on that damn trip?” Night asked, drawing an annoyed look from Voltage.

“Oh, look who doesn’t remember because she was too busy drooling on my shoulder.” The orange unicorn glared toward the dark blue pegasus as she finally found the bright red chord for her charger. “Was nine out of the ten hour trip not enough sleep for you?”

“I just got finished with an entire hack and slash game with a full story mode and multiplayer function. No, nine hours is a good start.” Night said all of this amid a silent audience, who had never programmed a game in their lives.

That was, until Fable finally saw a familiar face as they were about to enter the hotel. Ember Wing came around with his official looking dress shirt and sharp khaki dress pants. His father wasn’t entirely sure how Ember put up with being a public figure of the gaming world, but somehow, he pulled it off with a style that Fable couldn’t help but admire.

“Well, looks like someone finally found the parking entrance.” Fable chuckled as Ember scoffed. He was followed by Vera, the blue bat pony girl who served as the game’s visual artist and storyboard director. While Ember was editing levels and designing objects, Vera was picking up the slack and started the final touches. Even with Ember and Vera joining the team, it still took four months of playtesting. Gloaming Flare and Neon Sol followed behind her, both of them obviously having slept on the car ride much like their mother.

Sol approached Fable and wrapped an arm around his back as they walked and she leaned on his shoulder. “Looks like your mom had more influence on you than I thought.” Fable chuckled at the look she gave him. Her red fur was a bit brighter than his and her pink mane was something to behold in tatters of rubbing against the car’s upholstery.

“When are we going to the convention?” Sol asked no one in particular and Night groaned.

“Too early.” Night grumbled as she popped her neck.

“Eight in the morning,” Spark said as he checked his watch to see it was 7pm and waning daylight when they checked in for their rooms. The place was very fancy and modern, but none of them really felt like looking at the pretty fountain, the video screens with the relaxing rain ambience or the pretty lights and colors that filled the lobby.

“So, no chance of getting my own room?” Ember asked and Fable gave him a look. “Thought I’d ask.”

“Yeah, because you know how much your dad loves stupid questions. I believe three rooms will suffice just fine.” Fable grinned toward Spark and stood nearer to him. “Besides, no problem getting just a bit closer.”

“Subtle.” Voltage rolled her eyes at him while Spike simply cocked an eyebrow at him as they were given their room cards. “Anyway, it’s not going to matter much anyway, because three rooms is enough to pass out in if one or two of them are too loud.” Volt said with some wisdom of the experience in partying. Fable was all too familiar with her idea of partying and had a feeling that they would be feeling that very soon as the video games and caffeine started to flow like a river. With all of these old school games on display, he wondered if they were even going to have a bank account left after this little excursion.

“Just be sure to meet at the convention before we all scatter to the four winds. The last thing we need is for you to get lost at a gaming convention and not have a way out.” Fable warned Ember, who looked at Vera, who shrugged.

“I’ve got Spark to ward off fans, don’t I?” Ember asked, smiling big at Spark who looked at him.

“Well, I mean, I can do some things, but I’m not like a fighter or anything.” Spark admitted this and Ember raised an eyebrow at him as they walked.

“Don’t worry, Ember, I’ll protect you.” Vera offered him and he couldn’t help but cuddle up to her and kiss her head, making her blush.

“Yeah, just how famous are you, anyway?” Gloaming Flare asked and Ember blinked at the question.

“Well, I’m not going to cue the stupid drooling fan scene, but I’m famous enough that there’s a 40% chance I’ll be recognized as the guy who speed ran Demon Hoof in 2 hours, 29 minutes, and 20 seconds.”

“Dude, I stayed up all night on that live stream.” Voltage admitted and Fable nodded, knowing this very well on a school night of all nights. “Well, just try not to get torn apart or anything by your ravenous fans. You still need to advertise that game that Night still needs to let me playtest a year ago!”

“You said no to the beta!” Night growled and Voltage came right back.

“I was busy that week!” Voltage growled back and there was another growling contest while Fable pulled Voltage away and Sol pulled her mother the other way.

“Either way, we have our cell phones and none of us should be getting lost, right?” Night asked, making sure to eye both Sol and Flare as she spoke. Both of her twins gave her the stink eye.

“Yes, mom.” Both of them said with very pointed expressions of irritation.

With that ominous message, both Vera and Ember made it to the center room. Voltage, Spark, Fable and Night made it to the left room, while Flare and Sol went to the right.

All of the rooms had two beds, but the four room was the largest of the bunch. Spark even whistled at how much room they had. It reminded him of a certain suite they got in Trample Bay. It didn’t have chocolates and champagne, but it had a very nice hot tub in the bathroom, the beds were Canterlot Queensize, the TV was nearly theater sized and they had doorways into the two adjacent rooms.

They stretched, popped and started claiming the space for their stuff as Night started to disrobe. Once her bra came off her dark blue body, her panties hit the floor and her wings expanded. Before either of her three roommates could ask what she was doing, she crawled onto the bed and stayed in the doggy position.

“I’m seriously tired, so just a quick sleep aid.” She said as she cuddled up to the pillow.

Both Spark and Fable blinked at this, then looked at each other. They looked at Voltage, who shrugged and started stripping. It wasn’t long before Spark plunged deep into his twin sister’s cunt as she faced Night Coder in doggy, who was getting sufficiently plowed.

“We should probably visit the kids at some point.” Voltage gasped as Spark’s big brown dick stretched her and caused her to mewl. “I know Sol wants to go shopping.”

“You don’t think I know that?” Night asked as Fable reached her cervix with a tight squeeze against it. “I swear, if she doesn’t stop talking about those stupid Rainbow Axes, I’m going to go crazy! Fuck me harder, Fable!” She said and then gushed with her cheek to the mattress as he complied. The sudden pounding she was getting made her forget where she was for a moment.

“We’ve got all weekend, girls, we’re not in any rush.” Spark said as he beared down on Voltage, hitting her g-spot and causing her to squeal. “Fuck! Voltage, seriously, are you a vice all the sudden?”

“I’m going to squeeze your dick of everything, yes.” Voltage admitted, making Fable chuckle before he started banging Night Coder.

“Fuck! Fable! Yes! Give it to my pussy!” Night Coder started to moan into the mattress.

“Oh, here we go, she’s going to want—”

“Give me more foals! Fill me with babies! Oh God do not stop fucking my cunt!”

That’s when all of them heard the door latch open and all of them froze immediately. As the bellboy walked in with a whole tray of platters and bottles, he whistled and pushed it on its wheels. As he turned to them, he saw Fable fucking Voltage, and Spark froze while he was on top of Night, missionary style. All of them were panting after their sudden movement.

“Oh, no, did I forget to knock again?” He asked and all of them rolled their eyes.

“Come on, Fable, make it believable.” Voltage grumbled toward him, prompting him to start bunking her like a wild bronco. “Oh! Fuck! Sorry! We forgot we ordered room service to be sent up!”

“Don’t they normally stop fucking when ponies get caught?” Spark remarked, but neither Voltage or Fable were listening, clearly. He nodded apologetically to the bellboy, who didn’t seem to mind one bit, and didn’t seem to mind that he didn’t get a tip either. At least, not a tip of currency.

“Yes, so sorry that you had to walk in on us like that! We’ll try to wear clothes nex–” Night began to say, but as soon as the bellboy closed the door, though, it was Spark who started to pop his balls against Night’s asshole as he went completely inside her. “Oh dear sweet GOD! Fuck my tight pussy and make me a mommy!”

Her head hung from the edge of the bed and her mouth was wide open as Spark beat his steak inside her and seemingly forced an orgasm out of Night. The two mares were fucked side by side and it wasn’t long before they started switching positions.

In the next room, Gloaming did what he could to try and set up his digital laptop on the desk, but hotel wifi was always sketchy. While he did this, Sol was trying her best to get excited for any of the other games on the list.

“Of all the Game Expos I had to be a part of, not a single First Person Shooter.” She lamented as she went past yet another Live Service Internet game that wasn’t a Looter Shooter. “Seriously, it’s like all weapons need stats now.” Sol looked over at some of the beta test booths and saw one for Star Guard. She blinked as she saw it was from a smaller indie company and sighed.

“Well, I can’t say I’m excited about much other than the game we’re coming out with. It’s probably going to be a while before I’m actually able to sell the Dream Engine to mom, you know how picky she gets.” Gloaming Flare said as he finally got a connection. “So, shall I boot up the Dream Engine?”

“No, idiot, we need to test the engine for Mom’s new game or she’ll have a cow, and then she’ll skin you alive. She told us to do the final test before the Game Expo tomorrow and we’ll get your little jollies later.”

She had already begun to remove her clothing for the new tech jumpsuit. She’d almost zipped her way up to her upper stomach when suddenly, she felt two hands grope her with a squeeze.

“Sweet mercy!” Her bare, bright red breasts were being massaged and she darted her eyes back at Flare. “Having a good time?”

“Sorry, thought you heard me behind you.” He cleared his throat and she closed her eyes as he pinched her very sensitive nipples exactly at the pressure she liked.

“We are not getting off topic, I am tired and I want to lay down as soon as possible.” Sol put on a stern tone, which waned a bit as he started to give nipples little twists. “Fuck! Gloaming Flare!”

“But I want to let you lay down as—” There came a very dry silence as she glared at him with ever present danger.

The tension had been starting to mount. Her pussy was dripping wet and she still hadn’t told him to actually stop what he was doing, because of obvious reasons. The digital world and the real world were starting to edge dangerously close together. Without any real opposition from either of their parents, nor the man who actually sired her, Sol was starting to wonder what to do.

“Come on, Flare.” She growled, finally putting a stop to him as she slapped both of his hands. “We’ve got work.”

He waved his hands in surrender, but then started taking off his clothes. She glared toward him, but couldn’t help seeing that he was absolutely rock solid. “Suit on, ass!”

After finally getting a skin-tight and whisper thin suit over his, still very visible, rock solid outline, they logged into their private server and looked at the list of beta testers they had for the service.

“Alright, they said the younger demographic, so we’ll go in the 20’s.” Sol reasoned and he shrugged, already starting to put on his medieval, demon hunter outfit with the small crossbow. He wore a red hood and the first thing she noticed was how it fit against his very dark blue fur. While the tuft of yellow sticking out of the red was a good contrast, the blue just didn’t quite fit. She tapped the hood twice and then made a tiny adjustment, making it a hair brighter.

The whole time she was doing this, Flare glared at her but didn’t say anything, like a dog when you played with their face. After that, she pulled on her own outfit, this one was black against her bright red. For a moment, her nipples showed and then metal pasties covered them, along with a white thong on her bottoms after a brief flash of her groin.

“It’s not my fault if the beta testers get a glimpse of your erection.” Sol mumbled, drawing a sharp look from him as she finished putting on her outfit, which covered her in silver armor against the black. It still showed much of her red fur, but her head had a war metal tierra and her armor was rather useless as a result.

He rolled his eyes and then picked a duo to join. “Alright, these two say that they are in the ticket together and they are both friends who game together. They are confirmed to be at the Expo and they agreed to terms of review status.” Flare said as he brought up the profiles and checked them both.

“Alright, server’s up.” Soon, it became the hud system around them and the holographic image came into view as the world around them changed into the demo level, which was basically bits of the first, second and third level leading up to the first boss.

The setting turned to a deep diving castle with a very dark night sky around them. All of the night was gruesome, as the moon was a dark crimson, giving everything an edge of blood to it. It took a moment, but soon there came the shadows of the monsters around them.

Without even thinking, Flare cast a shining bolt of magic from his castor. It lit aflame before hitting a skeletal beast and made it burst into pixelated bone dust. “Welp, mobs respond.” He said as another monster noticed the death and began to charge toward Flare with a snarl. The large, mammoth-like skeleton attacked him with its tusks and Sol sliced out her blade whip and cut its skull clean from its body.

“Looks like it, and it looks like they’re here, so…” Sol pressed the button for them to enter and there came a very peculiar sight. Neither of them were quite ready for this particular image, but there came a changeling girl with the largest breasts either of them had ever seen.

This changeling girl had white hair with a red line going down the center at an angle and her eyes were a very pretty violet. She was a bright gray color and she smiled at both of them. Her tits were enormous to the point where they thought her back muscles must have been built of titanium. They seemed to outclass anything short of a very large watermelon and she did not wear much to cover them up. She had skintight sheets and a robe around her, along with a skull in her hand and a very large book hovering next to her.

“Oh, wow, hi.” Sol said, then looked at her companion, who was a griffon of all things. He was a moderate height and he smiled as well, as he had two daggers in the front of his black suit.

“Hey! Vespa and Providence, very interesting screen…” She double checked her notes to see otherwise and she looked at both of them.

“Oh, they’re real.” Providence assured them, his black beak was quite shiny and his black hood was over bright gray feathers.

“Yeah, but I’m not actually like a real insect with a stinger or anything.” Vespa assured them both, then turned into a changeling wasp hybrid and stood in front of them. “But I could be!” She said as she buzzed her wings. “Buzz buzz buzz!”

“No, that’s fine, a normal changeling will be far preferable, thanks.”Realizing she was stretching the term, “normal”, Sol smiled at her sweetly as she turned back into her voluptuous, massive chested self. As her breasts bulged forward once again, her nipples became exposed until she moved her tiny top over them again to hide the nipples at least. “Right! So! Congrats on winning the beta contest! This is the demo level, just tell us when you’re ready to start.”

“Yeah, hold on, give us a second.” Vespa told them as she very quickly pulled her robes up and revealed the tiniest chainmail thong.

“Oh, here? Alright.” Providence immediately dropped his trousers as he poked the air in front of him and set up a digital VR camera.

Both Flare and Sol went slack in the face when the young griffon man buried his cock deep into Vespa’s cunt as she went doggystyle and stuck her rear in the air. As he fucked her, the camera took both video and photo feeds that went directly to their gallery.

“Wow, we got a lively bunch.” Flare said as they looked at one another.

“Yeah, I can’t say I’m sorry. You’re both enjoying the–Fuck! Prov! Pound me!--You’re both enjoying the show too much. Fuck! Give my pussy that big cock!” She dipped her head down as she received a long dick in her fuck hole, grinding her tube very deep.

“Well, I’ll say we might be doing that.” Sol admitted as her already very damp suit just soaked through the crotch. She cleared her throat and tried to remain as professional as possible as she saw Vespa rock back and forth on her big gray breasts. “Are you two a porn couple?”

“Kind of?” Providence shrugged as he beat his girlfriend’s pussy hole with a cock that stretched her, making her squirt all over his balls as she howled and grabbed onto a dark, jagged rock from the game they were supposed to be playing.

“You have to admit, the gothic setting and the armor gives it a good ambience.” Flare observed and Sol facepalmed.

“Yeah, it’s almost like that was the point.” Sol said in the most sarcastic, indignant tone. “You goof.” She rolled her eyes and he gave her a tiny snarl before they both returned to watching the griffon man start to pack semen into her to the point of spurting a tiny bit in the effort.

“God!” Vespa cried out in passion as she felt hot jizz coat her insides and her face blushed with a dazed smile. “Fuck, that’s got to be the second best.”

“Wow, full blast, huh?” Flare observed and it was clear that Vespa was grinning over at him. “What?”

“Oh, I don’t know, Flare, maybe it’s something to do with the massive tell in your pants.” Sol glared at him as he looked down to see he was pushing against the front of his demon hunter pants. He cleared his throat and then looked back at the two of them.

“Alright, well, now that you’ve got that out of your system, let’s get started with the actual gameplay, if you don’t mind.” He chuckled and Providence very quickly cleaned up before getting to his feet.

“Yeah, we’re good now. You can’t imagine how long it’s been since I made this character on the original Bloodcount. How did you guys get the rights?” Providence asked both of them and they eyed one another.

“Yeah, you’ll have to ask the designer. She’s pretty much the one who handled all of that stuff when we were still in highschool. I’m part way through college.” Sol admitted as she shrugged.

“I think mom got the license for Bloodcount when I started the schematics for the Dream Engine, so I’d say around sophomore year of high.” Flare reasoned and even Sol started to nod. “Give or take around 5 or 6 years ago, so they’ve been banging this game out for a long minute.”

“Alright, well, I’m ready.” Vespa said as she stood up, her robe bikini thing clearly showing her large hard nipple as she stood in front of them and the griffon nodded.

They showed them into the graveyard and there, the game began a cinematic. As all four of them ambled into the cemetery, Vespa and Providence watched as skeletons began to rise from their graves and one of them wore a robe, a hat and carried a staff.

“Thou should not have ventured here!” A sinister voice rasped from the horrible skeleton and Vespa giggled.

“You got this?” Flare asked and she nodded.

“I’m a Necromancer, remember?” Vespa’s eyes glowed purple as the skull in her hand did as well. She mumbled an incantation and sent a jet of purple flames at the closest skeleton to her. The skeletal arm was broken off of it and the second jet made the bones crumble. The next skeleton was met with a similar fate as her eyes continued to glow.

Providence swiped out both of his daggers and one stab into a skeleton’s back sent it into pieces. With a whirl, he stabbed the next one into pieces as he brought his daggers around in his grip, the blade facing down.

Then Prov got struck with a thrown femur. “Hey!” Providence said to one of the skeletons, who readied another bone to throw at him. That was when he threw his own dagger at the skeleton and struck him through the neck, laying him down. He looked over toward Vespa, who was now locked in combat with the skeleton mage who kept resurrecting his fallen comrades.

“Come on, go down, asshole!” Vespa snarled as she cast her ultimate blood absorbing curse on the skeleton mage, which it didn’t affect. “What?!”

The skeleton mage sent a frost beam at her, taking out half of her HP and she was cast down.

“Ah, crap!” Providence began to tuck and charge as he selected the item in his pack and cast the black ball straight for the mage. The bomb was lit and the fuse went down as the skeleton mage growled at it. The explosion blasted the skeleton to bits.

“Nice,” Flare said as he nodded. “To answer your incoming question, they kind of went for a little realism in the game, so skeletons wouldn’t react to blood spells.”

“Ah, man, games aren’t supposed to put that much thought into it.” Vespa chuckled as she got to her hooves. “So, why didn’t you go find a bush?” She asked and there was a pause between all of them as both ponies eyed her.

“Find a bush?” Both of them asked at the same time.

“Dude, you’re hard as diamonds and you could fill a juice jar.” Vespa pointed at both of them and they eyed one another. “No need to be prudes. I mean, we did just go balls deep in your game. It’s not like we’re going to get offended. Hell, he’ll probably jerk off or I’ll jerk him off.” Vespa admitted as she patted the griffon’s crotch and he nodded his affirmation.

“Well, we kind of have a schedule to stick to.” As soon as Sol said this, the changeling pulled her own tits out of her tattered robes and even moved Vespa’s thong out of the way.

“They need more convincing.” Vespa whispered to Providence, who wasted no time in getting on his hands and knees under her and stuck his tongue deep into her very wet quim. “Fuck! Come on, you two! Let loose a little!”

“We… have a… schedule…” Sol tried to say something but Providence looked like he knew what he was doing between her pussy lips and every time he touched her clitoris, she squealed. “We need to stick to the—”

Somehow, Sol had gotten on her knees, completely naked and started to suck Flare’s cock very deeply. She looked up at him with hunger and his meat was ever so full within her throat. She gorged his cock and licked up every speck of sperm while her hand whirled over her pussylips and she she whimpered. “Flare, fuck me, now.”

Time skipped forward again after Sol heard someone say that. It most certainly couldn’t have been her. Sol had better control over herself, even though it did sound like her voice and she did get on her back with her wings and her legs spread. The red pegasus mare mated with someone she most certainly shouldn’t have mated with.

“Flare, we… we shouldn’---Oh, God! Oh, fuck, don’t you fucking dare stop!” Sol growled at him as he went balls deep into her pussy and began to pat against her. They kissed, licked, sucked while their pelvises thrust into one another.

Providence and Vespa witnessed all of this with their jaws dropping. One moment, it looked like their efforts were on a bad job, but that was when it looked like Sol turned into another creature entirely. She suddenly pulled the big blue dick from its confines and it was like her comfort blanket. Vespa thought the idea of a comfort cock was cute and perhaps thought that Providence wouldn’t mind the idea. However, right then, the two pegasi going buck wild in the middle of the game were entirely too entrancing, especially when his thrusts in her started sounding wet and her howls drowned out the werewolves in the later forest segment of the level.

“Fuck! Fill my pussy! Fill me!” She thrust her tongue into his mouth as Flare patted his balls against her while they drained. The white substance began to lavish her nether regions and her mind went blank for a moment. Her head was doing swirls and whirls until she looked at him with a mean, affronted expression. “You… I swear…”

“Hey, you attacked my cock. I thought you were going crazy.” He said and her face went beet red as she scowled at him.

“What I did or didn’t do doesn’t matter. I’m still very mad at you!” She whispered at him before she pulled him out of her with a very disappointed groan as she tried to look professional as she stood up with a quim full of spunk. “Ummm, well, that was…”

“Fuck….king…..Hawt!” Vespa put a great emphasis on the last word and Providence couldn’t agree more. “You said you were at the Gaming Expo? We need to get some hotel time! We’re on the second floor!”

“What?!” Both of them asked with shocked expressions before looking at one another.

“Are you kidding? We’ve been begging some of my friends to get in on a bit of fun.” Providence said as he looked from the three of them to the tower in the distance. “I mean, I do still wanna play more of the game, but can we do this later? I’m kind of exhausted.”

“Oh, my God, thank you, yes.” Sol said as she slumped over onto Flare’s shoulder, whom she glared at, still very mad even though her orgasm nearly rocked her skull loose. “Whatever you want, just let me sleep tonight and we’ll meet you after the expo tomorrow.”

“Yes!” Vespa was overjoyed as she bounced a lot. “Thank you! Fuck! Prov! You asshole! I’m getting—oh my God yes!” He was fingering her while she was trying to talk and he suddenly started to piston his fingers.

“You fucking love it you fucking slut.” He slapped her ass and made her squeal. “Such a bad girl.”

“I’m such a bad girl! Spank me again!” There was another loud thwack as she came!

Both of the twins blinked at them, dumbfounded, then looked at one another. What had they gotten into?
