>>35122163 >You are Anon, and it is about 1 PM on Hearts and Hooves. >Basically, it's Equestria's version of Valentine's Day. >Pink hearts everywhere, romantic meals reserved at restaurants, and lovely-dovey couples (and groups) being sickeningly sweet in public. >No public place is safe from adorable ponies nuzzling each other and exchanging chaste kisses as they look furtively around as though afraid of getting caught. >And just like Valentine's day, there's heart-shaped boxes of candy and chocolate everywhere. >And also just like Valentine's day, there's a bunch of lonely individuals who don't have a date. >...which also includes you. >To be fair, you've only been here a few months and a good chunk of the town still neighs in surprise when they spot you. >Adorable. >Anyway, you decided to spend Valentine's day the same way you did back on Earth. >Which is to say, you're treating it like any other day. >...what, did you think the answer was "getting black-out drunk b/c all alone"? >C'mon, give yourself SOME credit. >You are currently wandering the streets, not having very much to do. >The stores are closed, except for romantic get-aways and places to eat, so it's either going for a walk or spending time inside as you wait to go to bed. >You're not really thinking of much, and so your feet have aimlessly end up bringing you in the direction of the Flower Sister's flower shop. >Just before you turn the corner, you hear a few feminine voices from up ahead. >"I can't believe he stood me up..." >Hmmm... you think that one is Roseluck. >>"Tell me about it, sister. I had a nice lunch reservation and everything." >And that's Lily - you can tell by the nervous little lilt her voice always seems to have. >>>"Pfft! At least you cunts managed to get dates. What, did you trick the stallions or something?" >Aaaaaand that leaves- >"Buck off, Daisy. If I wanted to listen to a mare whine, I'd go join Sparkle in her yearly 'get black-out drunk b/c all alone' party." >-Daisy. If it weren't for the name, it would be from that husky undertone that only she of the three seems to have. >Maybe you should go see what they're up to - they don't normally get afraid of you, unlike SOME ponies. >...which is frankly a bit strange, since they're so easily spooked compared to most ponies in Ponyville. >Go figure. >>>"You didn't answer the question, Roseluck." grouses Daisy. >>"Fillies, please! I know we might not be drowning in dick right now, but at least we have each other." pleads Lily, trying to raise the mood a bit. >>>"Lily, I overheard Colgate and Lyra talking about how half the town thinks we're all one part of an incestuous dyke-herd. Having each other isn't that grand of a thing today." >There's a pointed silence, and you stop walking just before you turn the corner. >You think this might be a bad time to interrupt, so you'll just wait for a minute or two before you go talk to them. >"...okay, I'm going to see if the Red Lamp district is operational this early. Who wants to join me?" asks Roseluck >>>"Me!" >>"You two are terrible! I'm going to go for a walk, and when I get back you had better still be here." >Welp, that's your cue; seems like they're about to go their separate ways. >You turn the corner, and- "Oof!" >>"Hey!" >You and a pink pony collide and collapse onto the ground. >You land on your back, and the mare lays splayed out on your chest. >Her weight is enough to make you feel cozy, like you're under a weighted blanket, but not so much that it's crushing. >Likewise, her body heat feels nice against your skin, and her plush fur reminds you of how your cat used to nap in your lap back on Earth. >>"Oh! Anon?" >Lily's eyes are wide with shock, and she wriggles around against your chest. >Her hooves flail in an attempt to gain purchase on the ground they cannot reach. >>"I'm so sorry! I wasn't watching where I was going!" >Well, it's partially your fault, since you waited so long to approach them to talk. "It's fine, Lily - neither was I. Here, let's get you up." >You brace yourself against the ground and sit up, depositing the mare squarely onto your lap. >Lily lets out a quiet "oomf!" as her rump makes contact with your folded legs, and she instinctively wraps her hooves around your torso to steady herself. >Likewise, you reflexively place a hand against the small of her back to keep her from falling off. >And here you are: sitting in the street with a plush pink pony in your p-lap. >Lily's staring up into your eyes with embarrassment and slight wonder, seeing as how this is the closest she's ever been to you. >Certainly, she's the first pony to have been sat in your lap. >She wriggles a bit in place, and you wait for her to scramble to her hooves. >Only, that never happens. >"Lily?!" >>>"Lily, is something wrong?!" >Lured in by the sound of their sister shouting, Roseluck and Daisy come galloping around the corner, nearly barreling into you. >Roseluck looks embarrassed, but curious. >"...Lils? What in the world are you doing in Anon's lap?" >Daisy, on the other hand, is glancing between you and Lily with a rather lecherous grin on her face. >>>"You two look comfy." she says with a wriggle of her eyebrows >...you mean, she's right. >This is actually pretty nice. >Lily apparently has gotten her wits back, because she's now blushing and stammering up a storm. >Still hasn't let go of you, though. >>"Oh my goodness! A-Anon, I'm so sorry for this! This is so inappropriate!" >She whips her head back and forth, staring at her two sisters. >>"I-I-I should make this up to you somehow!" >Silly ponies, impromptu cuddling sessions don't need apologies. "Seriously, don't worry about it. It was an accid-" >"Actually," interrupts Roseluck, a grin spreading on her face, "Lily's right. Are you doing anything today, Anon?" "Well, not really. Bu-" >"Well then, would you let us take you out to lunch?" >...lunch DOES sound nice. >"It would make us feel so much better for knocking you over and sitting in your lap." >Lily nods frantically, looking relieved that you aren't going to be mad at her. >>"Yeah! Yes, Anon, please let me apologize to you properly, m-m'lord!" >Oh, god, Lily's ADORABLE. >Daisy stalks around to your side and nuzzles your shoulder. >>>"Maybe lunch isn't enough, colt," she purrs, "Maybe dinner should be thrown into the mix." >She and Roseluck exchange a l-lewd glance. >>>"Maybe we'll have to get creative." >A grin slowly grows on your face, and you absent-mindedly begin to scratch behind Lily's ear. >[spoiler]She squeaks, and her back leg starts kicking.[/spoiler] >"Uh-huh. What sort of mare just knocks over a nice colt like Anon and doesn't at LEAST take him out for lunch to make up for it? I'd like to think our mothers raised us better than that." >Daisy nods. >>>"That's right. It's just plain disrespectful. And papa always said that we should respect stallions." >You know what? >You have nothing going on the rest of the day. >Maybe getting lucky on Equestrian Valentine's Day is on the menu for you. "That sounds great to me, you three." --- >You are Anon. >It is several hours later. >Lunch was had at the place Lily had a reservation at (conveniently, restaurants assume that ponies in relationships belong to a herd, and tables by default have 4+ chairs), and then the four of you went back to their place. >It... did not end the way you were expecting it to. >>"I got the blankets, Anon!" >Lily picks the blankets back up into her mouth and starts walking backwards, dragging it behind her like a dog with a too-big toy. >"Ah hi'got t'h 'illowsh!" >Roseluck gallops into the room with a big, plushy pillow in her mouth. >As soon as she spits it onto the ground, she bounds out of the room and grabs another one. >>>"Sh'acks!" >Daisy makes her appearance, holding a big bag of pretzels in her mouth, looking excited. >Within minutes, a blanket/pillow pile is set up in the middle of their living-room. >Going along with their insistence, you lay down in the center of the pile. >The lights are turned off, the curtains are shut, the horse-TV is turned on to a movie channel, and the three of them all pile on top of you. >Honestly? >Not the route you thought this evening was going to take. >But you're actually okay with this. >It's nice cuddling with ponies, and you're rapidly on the way to calling them your friends. >Overall, you can't complain. >You thought you were going to get laid, sure, but this is just as nice in its own way. >[spoiler]Oh god, you're going to die a horse-virgin, aren't you?[/spoiler] >Lily has taken your lap (or rather, your groin area), and Roseluck and Daisy are draped across your chest from your left and right side. >Roseluck excitedly drums her hooves against your chest, and Daisy nuzzles the side of your face. >"I hope you're ready for cuddle night, Anon!" chirps Roseluck happily. >>"This is my favourite movie!" exclaims Lily, wriggling mirthfully in your lap. >>>"This isn't just a snuggle fort," whispers Daisy as she nuzzles the other side of your face, "It's also gonna be a fuggle fort." >Daisy drags her tongue across your cheek, making you shiver. >>>"Get comfy on that pillow, Anon, 'cuz you're gonna be moaning our names into it by the end of the evening." >And then Daisy settles down to watch the film, head tucked under your chin. >You absent-mindedly start stroking Roseluck and Daisy's fur, and hope that Lily won't notice the way you're starting to poke her with your p- >>"Oh!" >Lily throws a surprised look at you over her shoulder. >>"What is... o-oh..." >Lily giggles headily and wriggles a bit more, a nervous smile forms on her face. >>"I m-mean, if you really want to, m'lord..." >Roseluck giggles and kisses your chin. >[spoiler]...then again, maybe your horse-virginity isn't as well-protected as you thought it was.[/spoiler]
