Room 204 [morning]

[momslilassassin]

There are fewer things more awkward than waking up as a pony in a twin bed.

Sharing that twin bed with another pony was one of those things.

"Um, Ender?"

[OOC: for the boyfriend ponyfriend.]

Comments

[momslilassassin]

"It's cute," Ben said.

[endsthegame]

Ender shot him a look.

"You have a popsicle on yours," he commented. "Freud would have a field day."

[momslilassassin]

Ben made a face at him. "Once he got past the idea of everyone turning into ponies to begin with?"

[endsthegame]

"God knows Freud would have never let ponies stop him from equating something to genitalia."

[momslilassassin]

"So the popsicle plus the horn--not good, huh?" Ben replied.

[endsthegame]

"You'll probably have to field a few jokes," Ender agreed. "Hope you're up to the task."

[momslilassassin]

"I'll give it my best shot," Ben said teasingly.

[endsthegame]

Ender let go of a very horselike snort and began to walk again, shifting and moving his wings as he tried to get a feel for them.

[momslilassassin]

Ben got to the stairs and looked down at them. "I've never been frightened by them before," he mused.

[endsthegame]

Ender held a hoof above the topmost step. "It should be doable," he observed. "Just be careful for the first couple of steps - put your hoof down, check your balance, then move the next one."

[momslilassassin]

Ben nodded, tossing his mane out of his eyes again. He put one hoof down, then the next hoof on the same step. He paused thoughtfully, then moved both of those down another step before trying to move his rear. "This is ridiculous."

[endsthegame]

"Don't put both on the same step," Ender advised, watching closely. "And maybe try moving one back hoof in step with the other one."

[momslilassassin]

Ben tried that and very (very, very) slowly made his way to the landing. "Your turn!"

[endsthegame]

It was easier to do now that he'd seen Ben do it. He made his way down the stairs, almost down to the landing-- then he took a hop and spread out his wings, getting a minimum amount of lift before - only slightly clumsily - touching the floor.

[momslilassassin]

"Not bad," Ben said with a proud grin. "I wish I had wings."

Get used to that lament, Ender.

[endsthegame]

"You have a horn you can open doors with," Ender replied, "Maybe even float up tubs of ice cream." He spread his wings out again. "I might have to test these elsewhere; there's not a lot of space here."

[momslilassassin]

"Outside?" Ben suggested. "You can see if you can fly up to the roof."

[endsthegame]

"That's probably safer than finding things to jump off of," Ender admitted. "All right, outside it is. It isn't like we have any stairs left."

[momslilassassin]

"And I think these doors will just push open," Ben added happily.

[endsthegame]

"Then lead on," Ender suggested. "We'll figure out where the hay is later."

[momslilassassin]

"If the rest of the school has left us any," Ben said with a little snort.

[endsthegame]

"We'll deal with that when we get there," Ender said, and neighed.

Which had not been part of the plan, but he was just going to pretend like it was.

[momslilassassin]

Ben burst out laughing.

[endsthegame]

"Something funny, Skywalker?"

[momslilassassin]

"You neighed," Ben said between giggles. "That's kriffing hilarious."
