Equestria's newest Princess has some new things to learn about herself. Personal things.

As Equestria's newest Princess, Twilight knew she would be going from the frying pan into the fire. So very many new things to learn.

But she never really intended to have to learn anything new about her own body.

Friends Indeed

“I’m so glad that’s all over.” Twilight slumped over in a red velvet fainting couch. In the side chambers of the Grand Hall, the purple pony finally could enjoy a moment of peace. With the coronation over and her excitement fading, she suddenly felt exhausted. She wasn’t looking forward to the lengthy festivities planned for that evening.

Princess Celestia strode into the chamber, a grin on her face as she saw her faithful student resting on the couch. She walked over, reaching out a hoof and stroking Twilight’s mane gently.

“Oh! Princess!” she snapped out of her daydreaming with a start. “I’m sorry, I just was resting for a moment, I swear.”

The snow white alicorn chuckled to herself. “It is quite alright, my dear Twilight. Or should I say Princess Sparkle?” The Princess could hardly disguise a sly smile in her amusement with the situation.

Twilight settled her head between her front hooves, sighing. She looked at the gold and amethyst adornments she wore on her hooves. “It’s not funny, Princess. This whole day has just been very tiring. Is every day like this as a Princess?”

Cradling the smaller pony’s head, Celestia spoke in a softer, gentler tone. “Do not worry Twilight. It may seem like a big change for now. But I am sure you will have no trouble dealing with it over time. I would not have gifted you with such a great honor if you could not.”

Twilight smiled a little, even though her muzzle was still buried in her front hooves. “I’m glad you think so much of me Princess. I promise I won’t let you down.”

Leaning over, the Princess kissed her gently on the forehead. “I know you will not, Twilight. Now come, we must prepare for your grand celebration.” Beckoning to the door, Twilight jumped off the couch, following her mentor obediently. “The ceremony in the palace is just for appearances, after all. The real festivities shall be tonight, in the Grand Ballroom.”

“Don’t you think I could rest until then, Princess? I just feel so stressed after everything that’s happened recently. If I could just take a short break…”

Celestia laughed. “It is alright, Twilight. I promise there are many advantages to being a Princess. I think you would like to see one of those now, before the party. It should make you feel so much better.”

Intrigued, Twilight obediently clopped down the stone walkway, into a part of the castle few had ever seen before.

Looking at the room from the surface, it looked like any other bath room. Stone benches lined walls, and several steaming pools were scattered around the room. White tapestries with the emblem of Celestia adorned the walls, with thin windows streaming the waning light of the day onto the glittering water. The serene aura of silence and peace filled the chamber; hints of lavender and vanilla lingering in the air.

By some marvel of engineering long lost, water was magically drawn and heated from Canterlot’s vast underground springs. Celestia merely lit her horn, and it sprang forth from the wall, cascading into a nearby pool, steaming and inviting.

Twilight smiled happily. “Thank you, Princess. This is just what I need!” She began removing the clunky jewelry from the coronation. She felt so out of place in the fancy dress that was required of her.

Celestia cleared her throat, commanding the attention of her student. “Twilight, you are a Princess now. That is not your place. We have ponies here to serve all your needs.” She beckoned to a nearby white door, ringing a bell outside of it with her magic. Nearly immediately it opened, allowing in the bath attendants.

Twilight was taken aback at first. She suddenly felt very exposed for some reason. Celestia chuckled at her surprise. “Twilight, I thought you might enjoy seeing some familiar faces. You have not seen your friends in weeks, and I know it must be very difficult. So I sent my personal guard to bring some of your friends to see you. I think they might prove very helpful with your recent…changes.”

Twilight still couldn’t believe her eyes. Adorned in the white togas and laurel crowns of traditional bath attendants, Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash strode it. Her eyes felt wet with tears as she rushed forward to greet them. “Fluttershy! Rainbow!”

The three shared a large pony hug, the joy of being together written all over their faces. “I’m so happy to see you two!” exclaimed the purple alicorn. She buried her muzzle against theirs, feeling the doubt and anxiety wash away as she felt their warmth against her.

“Heh. It’s no big deal, Twi. We know we didn’t get invited to the royal shindig, but we still wanted to see you.” Rainbow Dash gave her a wink.

“We just were so worried about you. We haven’t seen you since you…changed. We really didn’t know if you were alright.” Fluttershy looked down at the ground, hoofing at it absently.

Suddenly something dawned on Twilight. She turned to Celestia. “Princess, why did you just bring Fluttershy and Rainbow? Surely all my friends from Ponyville wanted to come?”

“Well of course, Twilight. And I promise, you will be able to see them very soon. But I asked Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash here for a specific reason. Now, just relax and let us enjoy the bath.”

Twilight accepted the answer, but felt a little unsure. She watched Celestia stride over and sit on a stone bench, allowing her legs to rest to one side. She nodded to Fluttershy. “O…oh!” The shy pony nearly jumped forward suddenly as if she suddenly remembered. The yellow pony walked obediently over. She started removing Celestia’s hoof adornments. The whole time, Celestia was watching Twilight. Blushing, the purple pony found she could not look away from the unusual sight.

She was broken away from the scene at a gentle nudging in her side. Rainbow was looking at her, a smile on her face. Her vibrant mane was wilting in the humidity of the room, plastering against her cyan coat. “Twilight. Let me help you too.” She motioned to a nearby bench. In her surprise, there was little the newly minted Princess could do to refuse. Dash gently helped her onto the cool stone, running a hoof down her side, and reaching for her hoof jewelry. She felt the gentle breath of her friend on her leg as Dash removed the adornments slowly, placing them carefully to the side. Twilight felt her fur breathe as it was exposed to the moist air. She looked down and saw Dash reach for her rear hooves.

“Rainbow, you don’t have to.” Twilight whispered softly.

The other mare simply gave her a big smile. “It’s okay, Twi. Celestia explained everything to us before we came. We all know it’s gonna be hard to adjust. So we wanted to let you know we’re here for you.” She gently touched Twilight’s flank. The pony twitched slightly, then relaxed at her friend’s touch. Rainbow cradled her rear leg in her hoofs, carefully removing the remaining hoof adornments. She finished by running her muzzle softly against Twilight’s mane, plucking the tiara of the Element of Magic from the blushing pony’s head.

Twilight was broken out of her idyllic trance by the sound of soft splashing next to her. She was surprised to see Fluttershy delicately running a large bath sponge along the Princess’ back as she waded in the crystal water. Her friend took extra care as she washed around her wings, eliciting a small chuckle from Celestia.

Looking over at Rainbow, Twilight suddenly turned crimson as she realized what the cyan pony was intending to do. “It’s alright Rainbow. I can wash myself.”

A cyan hoof caught her gently underneath the chin, and pulled her face up into a pair of kind magenta eyes. “I told you it was okay, Twilight. I’m not that weak that I would do something that I didn’t want to do. Flutters and I want to be here. Don’t get so worried about it. Just try to relax, okay?” The Pegasus motioned to the water, placing a hoof on Twilight’s back and helping her slowly into the pool.

Twilight had to admit, the warm water did feel good. As she walked towards the center, she found she could completely submerge, feeling the weight of her tensions wash away. Truthfully, this was the first time she had taken a bath with her newfound ‘equipment’. The feeling of the warm water washing over her downy purple wings was unlike anything she had felt before. The feathers themselves had no feeling, but as the water worked down to the sensitive skin underneath, she shuddered to herself slightly.

Rainbow smiled at her friend as she experienced her first bath with wings. She grabbed the long bath sponge with her mouth, and carefully started scrubbing her friend’s back. The cyan mare felt Twilight shy away at first, but very soon the other mare was pushing against the sponge, loving the newfound feeling of having another pony scrub her back. She closed her eyes happily, dipping her head until only her nose poked out of the surface, scratching herself against the rough sponge.

Her eyes only snapped open when she felt the scrubbing intruder curve under her flank and under her tail. She practically jumped out of the pool, snapping her head over at an embarrassed Rainbow dash. She stammered for a moment. “C’mon Twi, it’s nothing I haven’t seen before. We’re all mares here, right?”

“This is a little different, Rainbow!” Twilight clamped her tail between her legs, looking over for help from her mentor. Her eyes went wide with shock as she saw Celestia standing with her rear legs splayed, a glassy, far off look in her eyes, as Fluttershy obediently scrubbed her royal hindquarters with her sponge. The Princess was obviously rocking herself against the shy pony’s hoof, causing Fluttershy to flinch occasionally and close her eyes.

“I promised it would make you feel better, my student. Just be calm and enjoy yourself.”

Twilight felt terribly self-aware and strangely exposed as she looked back at her longtime friend. Her mane was now draped around her shoulders, wet with humidity. Her eyes were soft and kind. Maybe it would be alright…

“Just…be gentle please Rainbow.”

The other pony smirked. “Oh don’t worry, Princess. Just put yourself in my hooves.”

Twilight shut her eyes as she felt her friend’s soft touch on her back again. The warm sponge touched her flank gently, working around her clenched tail. If Rainbow found it difficult to work around, she said nothing. She cleaned Twilight’s inner thighs, working to her small breasts. The purple mare gasped at the rough texture, but Rainbow’s touch was gentle as she washed around the sensitive nipples. Twilight inadvertently raised her tail slightly, relaxing. Rainbow needed no further invitation. She darted between the purple thighs, bringing the sponge across Twilight’s most sensitive area in one smooth stroke.

Before she could think of blocking these advances, Twilight felt a ripple of heat pulse from her thighs, pushing her tail further out of the way. The Pegasus attendant carefully cleaned the virgin pink folds, feeling her own body grow hot as she saw Twi’s most personal space for the first time. Swirling the sponge, she cleaned the small pucker further up, chuckling as Twilight flinched at the odd sensation, flexing against the rough sponge.

Gently, Rainbow reached forward and motioned for Twilight to go under the water. When she poked her head back out, she felt like a new foal. Her whole body felt relaxed and loose, as if all her worries had gone down the drain.

Glancing over at Celestia, she appeared to have enjoyed herself even more. Her face was beaming as she rested on a cool stone bench, her mouth hung slightly open as she recovered from her bath. Fluttershy toweled her off gently, a bright crimson blush across her face, but a happy smile on her muzzle.

‘This is all a little bit weird.’ Twilight thought as she relaxed on her own bench. Rainbow started toweling her wet body off. Even if it was strange, Twilight was far too relaxed to care about it now.

Roused from her blissful daze, Twilight glanced up to find Celestia standing next to her. She reached out a white hoof, inspecting her student’s wings. “I must say, Twilight, these wings have grown to a truly grand size. The color and shape; they are definitely the wings of a Princess. And yet, I can already tell you have not cared for them since you received them. A princess especially must keep her wings looking beautiful."

Celestia walked over to her bench, seating herself as she motioned Fluttershy over to stand near Rainbow. Twilight had never seen her friend like this before. Her mane was matted down, and her face was positively aglow. She looked very prepared for something. And very determined. “Of course, a Princess is not expected to do such things herself. This is why I have invited your pegasi friends. They are to show you a proper Royal Preening.”

Twilight took a moment to have the true meaning seep in. The feeling from before in the bath flashed into her mind. The pony knew how sensitive her wings were. In reality, even she herself hadn’t wanted to touch them yet. They were mostly tucked tight against her body since she received them. She darted her head to both friends, than back to Celestia. “You mean…oh…OH!” She jumped from the bench, taking a step back. Twilight chuckled nervously. “Ahaha, that’s a good one Princess. You really had me going there.”

There was no tell on the Princess’s face. She still wore the same soft smile as before. She looked at her friends. “It’s really alright, girls! I can do it myself, honest.”

Celestia lit her horn, grinning at her student. “Oh, do not put up such a fuss, Twilight. I hardly doubt you will be struggling in a few minutes.”

Twilight felt a sudden firmness on her hooves. She was stuck fast. Her muscles tensed as she was pulled the opposite way. She felt the cool stone of her bench under her chest as she was lowered onto it. In a desperate last attempt to escape, she flexed her wings wide, trying to find ground on the wind, even though she had never even used them before. Twilight immediately realized her mistake as Celestia pinned her wings in midair, exposing them fully.

Twilight looked at both her friends as they approached. Her body broke out in a sweat.

“C’mon Twi, It’s no big deal. Every Pegasus does it. Just look on the bright side. You get two ponies to do it for you.”

“We’ll be extra gentle, Twilight. Oh! Unless you don’t want us to be that is…”

Rainbow Dash reached out and gingerly touched the large pinion feathers on Twilgiht’s right wing. She stroked closer to the lead edge, meeting the tender skin and delicate down hidden beneath the flight feathers. Twilight gasped at the soft touch where no pony had ever touched her before.

Rainbow grinned slyly at the alicorn. “Mmm, didn’t think they’d be so sensitive when you got them, did you? Yah, it takes some getting used to. I can tell you the first time I flew on my own I nearly came from the feeling of the wind rushing through them.”

Fluttershy was nuzzling her wing base on the left wing. Her wet fur was brushing along the length of Twilight’s wing, causing her to twitch erratically. “Oh my yes, Twilight. Every Pegasus loves feeling good when they fly or when they preen. It feel so…nice.” She blushed as she closed her eyes demurely.

“That may be so, girls, but I really prefer to take care of these things privately!” Twilight struggled against the magic bonds to no avail. “Princess! A little help…oh my gods!”

She looked over to see Celestia nibbling her own white wing, a white hoof polishing the royal clitoris. Juices were already seeping down the bench as she lashed her feathers furiously with her pink tongue, lost in her own pleasure.

Fluttershy had taken the que. She reached out gingerly with her tongue, and grasped a pinion in her muzzle, gently suckling at the base, kissing the skin underneath. Twilight almost lost her breath as a spasm coursed through her body, rocking her all the way to her marehood. She shifted on the bench as she tried to recover from the intensity.

At the same time, a grinning Rainbow Dash attacked her other wing, fluffing out her flight feathers and then running her tongue tip underneath them, lapping at the bare skin. “Ahhh!” Twilight moaned loudly as her skilled friend wetted the feathers carefully, before running them through her muzzle. She cared for her friend’s wings like a mother for its foal, giving each the attention it deserved.

Twilight could hardly believe it felt like this. The Princess had done some things with her horn before, but this was far removed. It was as if two ponies were polishing a dozen horns at once on her wings. She found herself hating herself for desiring the soft touch of her friend’s tongues on her wings, and then the pleasurable pain of them gently tugging the feathers as they used their tongues to clean out any debris and smooth the feathers back into shape.

Rainbow was definitely more fervent about her duties. She took particular delight in digging under the soft down of Twi’s wings and nibbling at the skin underneath, eliciting soft moans from the purple alicorn.

Twilight found herself giving up completely on freeing herself. She opened her eyes, looking up with a glazed look of bliss at her wingtips. They weren’t held in place anymore. She blushed as she realized she was holding them erect for her friends as they pleasured her in ways she had never imagined. Her face scrunched up suddenly as Fluttershy reached the base of her wing, nuzzling in deep, and lapping at where her wing met body. Twilight thrashed suddenly as her thighs spiked a wave of pleasure through her, forcing her muzzle open in a silent moan.

Rainbow, not to be outdone, had started using her hooves. She teased Twilight’s wing base as she nibbled at the leading edge of her wing, ever so gently nipping at the most sensitive areas. “Nahhh…No…Rainbow, don’t do that…stop! If you keep doing that, I’ll…ahhh!”

Rainbow smiled as the purple pony tensed against her. Twilight was letting out little short gasps as she arched her back off the bench, a powerful orgasm crashing through her. Rainbow and Fluttershy didn’t let up, completing their grooming of her royal wings as Twilight panted on the bench, losing track of all the times she came as her juices pooled on the floor. When they finally finished, Twilight could do nothing more than stare upward at the amber rays of sun streaming in, her face aglow with pleasure.

Celestia raised herself from her bench, removing a hoof from her thighs, examining it before giving it a taste. She strode over to her student, now limp and exhausted on the stone bench. Celestia did have to admit, her wings did look perfect. They practically shone in the fading light. Perhaps she would have to bring on Twilight’s friends as full time bath attendants.
