You see a pink snout in the doorway, causing you to open them wider. You speak out, careful not to be so loud as to awaken the living pony blanket you’re covered with.   “Cadance? When did you get here?”   >Cadance slowly enters the room, smiling at her husband when she sees him all cuddled up against you, whispering to you as she approaches.   >”Princess Celestia sent a chariot to deliver me here. I’ve been missing my Shiny, I couldn’t take it, I just had to come see him… Has everything been okay here?”   ”These two have been fine, Cadance. As far as everything else… the Confederacy’s arrival has flipped my life upside down. I was content to stay here, marry Twilight in peace and maybe raise a couple foals with her, try to bond with you as I have with Shining Armor…”   >”Anon, don’t get me wrong, you’re a good guy with good intentions, I would love it if we could become closer, but I’m afraid that might take a lot of hard work.”   “It doesn’t have to, Cadance. I already love you much, much more than you know. There’s room for you up here with us, you know.”   >”I don’t think…”   “Come on, just give it a try. What’s the harm? Come see how comforting it is to be surrounded by more than one pony that you love, even if it’s just for a few minutes.”   >Cadance hesitantly crawls into the bed. You wiggle around gently, creating a space between Shining Armor and Twilight for Cadance to squeeze into. She finagles her way in between the two of them, lifting her wings as she settles down, laying on your belly, allowing her wings to drape over Twilight and Shining Armor. You feel her shiver a bit, an involuntary nicker escaping her muzzle.   “See? Doesn’t it feel wonderful to be surrounded by so many warm bodies that you know you’re loved by?”   >You reach down and stroke Cadance’s muzzle as she hesitantly lets it come to rest against your side. She’s reluctant to accept your touch at first, but eventually gives in. You stroke her muzzle, her neck, and give her a nice thorough ear scratching on both sides, drawing lots of little tiny nickers and moans from her as you do so, feeling her tremble with pleasure the entire time, then her whole body relaxing as she gives a deep sigh afterwards.   “Now, don’t be upset. You know I’m not saying this to you the same way I do Twily, but Cadance, I love you, I really really do, and I couldn’t be happier that you’re here with the three of us tonight. I would really enjoy if we were more physically affectionate, like I just was to you. It felt good, didn’t it?”   >”It… it did, it felt really nice…”   “That’s the kind of way I like to make Shiny feel good. He loves a good rubdown, or hug, or nuzzle. Many people are afraid to make physical contact with others, usually because so often physical affection is mistaken for romantic intimacy, or an attempt at romantic intimacy. The reality is, romantic intimacy is only a small subset within the broader concept of physical affection. I’m not asking you to make love to me or to kiss me or to do anything sexual or romantically intimate with me Cadance, just open your mind to allowing me to become more physically affectionate to you. You of all ponies would know if my intentions were lewd or perverse in any way.”   >”I guess… I’ll keep it in mind, Anon.”   “It doesn’t have to be constant. The occasional hug and nuzzle, letting me scratch your ears like I just did, or make you feel good in other ways. There’s a ton of harmless ways we can enjoy each other’s touch without being unfaithful to our lovers. Shining takes it as far as he can go, he practically craves it, and I love that he’s secure enough in his stallionhood and in his marriage that he has no trouble showing his affection for me, even though I’m another male.”   >”He does seem quite happy when he’s in your company…”   “And how are you feeling right now?”   >”Calm… relaxed… safe… warm… loved…”   “No type of revulsion or threat from me?”   >”None at all, Anon. I think I feel more comfortable with you now than I ever have in the whole time we’ve known each other. I’m sensing so much affection from you, for all three of us. It’s just surprising to me that one pony-erm… person… is capable of this much love.”   “Well, Cadance, for humans, touch is an extremely important part of our mental well-being, and social interactions. We have an instinctual need to touch anything we feel affection for, and to touch for social reasons. Physical touch and affection is a critical aspect of physical and mental health in my species, it’s been proven medically, psychiatrically, and in a whole plethora of other ways just how critical the sensation of touch is in forming bonds in humans, and increasing release of the chemicals in our brains associated with love.”   >”I see. So when we’re standing apart, I sense love from you for all three of us, but it’s much less intense than it is now. Physical contact is some kind of primal or instinctual need for your people. That’s why, right now as you’re touching all three of us, the love I’m sensing from you is so much stronger.”   “That’s right. Horses and ponies back on my homeworld have this same instinct. The need to be in a herd and show physical affection through mutual grooming and other physical contact. You’re probably feeling some things right now you’ve never felt before, no matter how slightly. At least I hope you are. It means that you’re feeling the very first stages of establishing a nonsexual bond through physical affection. The more physical contact there is between us, the stronger that bond will grow. That’s why me and Shining Armor are nearly as inseparable as me and Twilight, because we’ve shown each other quite a bit of physical affection and developed our bond rapidly.”   >”I… I am having some very slight… peculiar feelings for you….” She admits.   >You rub her muzzle gently, then scratch her neck at the base of her mane, then move back to her ears, really going to town on her this time. This time you get a couple of whinnies out of her, almost loud enough to wake up Twilight and Shining Armor.   “You find that extremely pleasurable.”   >”y…yes…”   “But even though it may have seemed to others that you were, you weren’t sexually aroused.”   >”That’s right…”   “Are you starting to better understand what me and Shining have?”   >”I think so, Anon…”   “That peculiar feeling, how was it when I was touching you just now?”   >”It… it felt like it was getting stronger the more pleasure you provided me.”   “Are you scared of it, dislike it, or want it to stop?”   >She hesitates for a long time before answering.   “Cadance?”   >”N…no.”   “Does the idea of forming this bond with me disturb you?”   >”I… I don’t know… I never thought I’d willingly be this close to you at all – that we’d ever share a bed, much less share a bed with both of our lovers, or that I’d be resting on top of you like this. But… ever since I climbed up here, and settled down on top of you, felt Twilight and Shining on either side of me, then had you scratching my ears and my neck and muzzle on top of that… I’ve felt nothing but positive feelings the entire time. The sensations I was feeling when you touched me… I’ve never felt that kind of pleasure before… and I like it. So… I guess… if we have already begun to form this ‘bond’ you’re referring to… I… I don’t want it to stop or go away. I… I… I want more of it…” she sheepishly admits.   “I don’t think you’ll regret it, Cadance. You’ll find I have a lot of love to give, and I’m more than happy to share it. Do you think you can rest here comfortably tonight?”   >”Definitely…”   “Goodnight then. Sleep well, sweet princess,” you say, giving her one more quick ear scratch before the two of you settle down to sleep.   >You wake up early in the morning, still completely surrounded and covered by the three ponies. You let out a long sigh, basking in their warmth, feeling their chests rise and fall slowly as they continue to sleep. You allow all of your senses to be overwhelmed by them, looking down at them, slowly and deeply inhaling their strong scents, holding it for several seconds and then releasing it with a sigh. This is the epitome of comfort. That’s not even an accurate description. If there is a heaven, you’re definitely sure this is exactly what it feels like.   >You wish there were some way to package this feeling into some kind of drug you could stick yourself with any time you wanted to. While your sweet Twily’s touch is all you ever really need to be happy, it feels amazing beyond description to have her in addition to Cadance and Shining Armor completely covering your body. Twily and Shiny love you and want to be near you, despite everything that’s happened. Cadance finally let her guard down just long enough for you to start bonding with her as well – and that by itself feels like a major achievement on the same scale as Ytria in how shockingly easy it was to conquer what should have been an incredibly difficult task. Fortune seems to fall heavily in your favor all around these days. Though you could have done without all the publicity. You guess it’s a small price to pay for what you’ve been getting in return though. You rub Cadance’s muzzle gently as she sleeps. You get the feeling your relationship with her as you grow closer is going to involve a lot of ear scratching.       >You drift closer and closer to sleep for the next several hours, trying to stay awake to enjoy this little piece of heaven while you can. At one point you hear Shining and Cadance stir groggily. You feel them both shift position slightly before hearing lips smacking, contented nickers from both of them, and whispers so soft you can’t hear what they’re saying. You smile and give a little sigh. Their gentle make-out session lasts quite a while, a half hour or so. You feel them occasionally shift around slightly on top of you, shuddering or shivering along with the little nickers, gasps, and moans. Eventually, she scoots closer to Twilight, Shining scoots closer to her, and she embraces them both tightly with her wings as they rest their heads to go back to sleep. You can’t wait to play a little tongue-tag yourself with Twily when she wakes up later.   >Despite your resistance, the overwhelming comfort is too much, and you fall back asleep yourself. You don’t wake up again for several more hours. When you look at the clock you see it’s almost 1:00 in the afternoon. All three ponies are still on top of you, but are awake and talking quietly amongst themselves. They seem perfectly content to remain right where they are, Cadance’s wings are even still wrapped around the other two. You give a big yawn, and they notice you’re finally awake.   “Mmm. Good morning, ponies,”   >”Morning, Anon,” they echo back much more energetically.   “How long have you been awake?”   >”We all woke up around 9 this morning, Anon,” Shining says.   “Wow… and you’re still here?”   >Twilight shifts around, nuzzles and licks your cheek, nibbles on your chin before giving you a forceful kiss, returning to her former position as she releases you.   >”Of course we’re still here, Anon. I promised you we still would be whenever you woke up,” Twilight says affectionately.   “None of you got bored or wanted to go do anything else?”   >”Honestly, no. We were all so comfortable and felt so good we didn’t want to move. Some light, idle chit-chat was enough to keep us from getting bored, and even if there was nopony to talk to, I think we could all lay like this for a very long time without wanting to move,” Cadance says, to your surprise. The other two nod and vocalize their agreement nonverbally.   >”It was such a nice surprise to see my sweet Cadance next to me earlier when we first woke up. I never imagined she would want to be a part of anything like this with us,” Shining says as he nuzzles her.   “She showed up last night just a little while after we first fell asleep. It took some convincing to get her to climb up here with us, but once she did I finally got to her, Shiny,” you say with a soft laugh. “All it took was some gentle muzzle and neck rubs, and some vigorous and thorough ear scratches, and she didn’t want to leave after that.”   >Cadance blushes and her feathers ruffle slightly.   >”It felt so, so good, Shining. Good in a way nothing else ever has. I’m finally starting to understand why you like it so much,” she says as she nuzzles him.   >”It gets so much better than that, my love. If you give him a chance he’ll make you feel so good you never wanna leave his side. It’s not sexual attraction, but a bond that goes much deeper than simple friendship if you aren’t shy about letting Anon show his affection for you,” Shining replies.   >”The affection I’m feeling from him for the three of us right now is incredibly powerful,” she says.   >”That shouldn’t come as a surprise,” Twilight says. “I’ve seen from the very beginning what a soft spot Anon has in his heart for ponies, even when they would jeer at him or give him nasty looks or were afraid of him. I was the first one he got to truly express any love for without negative consequences, because I fell in love with him first. You two along with Celestia and Luna were the next ponies to finally give him a chance, so I’m sure his affection for all of you has been growing for quite some time since then,” she says, nuzzling you all over and wiggling her body against you affectionately.   >”You’re not worried about him being so affectionate to me or Shiny?”   >”Not in the slightest. I might have been a little jealous at first, but that’s died down. Anon has an overabundance of love to give all of us, but I’m his mate. I know he finds mares attractive, but our bond is unbreakable and nothing will ever threaten our romance. We trust each other implicitly as far as that goes. Besides, it’s not like we all *just* enjoy being affectionate with only Anon, look at how much we’re enjoying *all* of each other’s company and closeness. We all love each other in one way or another, and being like this together is the most comforting thing I personally have ever felt in my life.”   >You turn your head and start planting kisses on the closest part of Twilight’s body you can reach, which happens to be the bottom of one of her forehooves. She squirms a little bit and giggles, sighing when you stop. There’s quite a long silence after that before anyone says anything else. It’s close to 2:30 now and the ponies haven’t so much as flinched again.   “Don’t any of you want to get up? It’s already 2:30. None of you are hungry or have to go to the bathroom or anything?”   >They all give casual dismissive shrugs or shakes of the head.   >”None of us really has anything important to do today, and it’s been a while since we’ve had any downtime to relax. I’d have to say this is pretty relaxing. Why bother getting up? Unless you want us to, that is,” Twilight says.   “I never want you to get up,” you say, “ever… this right here is all I want out of life. To literally be surrounded by the ponies I love. I’m in paradise right now with the three of you. I do wanna do just one thing though.”   >”What is it, Anon?”   “Can the three of you get up just long enough for me to roll over onto my belly? I want to feel you all on my back now, if that’s okay.”   >The three ponies allow you to roll over before nestling back down on top of you. You feel a pair of teeth slide your underpants off. You don’t ask who or why, just closing your eyes as you rest your arms under your pillow with a sigh. You *did* say you wanted to feel them all over every square inch of your body possible. This feels even better than before, you can’t help but squirm around a little underneath them from the incredible warmth and comfort. None of you are tired or want to sleep anymore, all you want is to stay clumped up together like this. You feel all three of them nuzzle various places on your back at once for a few moments, causing you to shudder and sigh.   >You feel a warm breath on your ear as twilight nibbles on it, before nuzzling the back and sides of your neck, kissing and nipping and licking all over as she goes, causing every hair on your body to stand on end.   “Twibaby… mmm…” you moan softly. “I love you so much my beautiful goddess… I’m unworthy of your heavenly touch…”   >She nickers in your ear, continuing her gesture of affection for several more minutes before settling back down. Regardless of the fact that none of you are even tired, you fall asleep anyway, overcome by the sheer comfort and bliss.   >For you, at least, it’s not a deep sleep. Your eyes keep opening for a few minutes now and then, savoring your ponies’ touch for a few minutes before drifting off again. This is the longest length of time you’ve ever been able to feel this relaxed, at peace, comforted, loved and wanted, and this much overall pleasure in your life. Nothing else has ever even come close.   >When you fully awaken again, all three ponies are out cold, so you’re trapped for now. You ponder for a little while how wonderful it would be to have Celestia and Luna on either side of you, the universe’s most perfect cuddle pile. Heh. Celestia’s probably wondering what that mommy-horse comment was about. Luna would probably be game to join you without much coaxing. She already snuggled up to you and Shining all on her own one time.   >The two sisters, both of them over a thousand years old and not married. Sleeping in separate beds. You’re not sure if either of them have ever even had suitors. They are basically this world’s deities, maybe no stallion has ever felt worthy enough to even try. Or maybe they just prefer to keep a distance from their subjects for other reasons.   >Still though, it must get lonely for them sometimes. You wonder how often they ever get to hold someone close to them like this, to feel the comfort of that physical contact with another. It would probably be too forward to directly ask them to join you in bed, you don’t want to offend them. You can tell from the few embraces you’ve shared with Celestia that she seemed not to want to let go.   >Ah well. Maybe later on once you’ve got Cadance as ‘broke’ as Shiny you can give them a whirl next. Though you wonder how you’re going to even bring it up. With Cadance it was just serendipitous, and she had the added motivator that her husband was already in the bed with you, too. You can’t just stroll up to the rulers of all of Equestria all casually and say ‘So hey pretty mares, wanna come join us for a good long cuddle?’ ‘Princess Celestia, have you ever been touched?’ ‘Luna, I love ya, can I give you a nice belly rub?’ ‘Hey mommy-horse, does the big pretty mare wanna have her ears rubbed? I promise it’ll feel real good.’   >You hear the distinct sound of an incoming hail, squinting your eyes for a few moments in confusion before remembering that there had been long range comms equipment installed in all the castles. You’d completely forgotten in all the excitement of the last few day’s events. It chirps for nearly ten minutes before shutting off. You get another incoming hail, and it chirps for another 15 minutes or so before silencing. Sorry ‘liv, I got ponies to cuddle, killing more traitors will have to wait for now.
