He couldn't help but fall out of his chair laughing, after all, he wouldn't of expected Luna to have gotten herself stuck in a tree when she was younger. From what Celestia just told him, she didn't fly through it or anything she just decided to climb the tree and got stuck as a cat would. It apparently took three Pegasus and Celestia to get her down.

"I knew that would get you," Celestia said wiping away a tear from laughing along.

"Well, yeah I mean with how she acts today? I wouldn't have expected her to be afraid of heights like that." He said, taking a couple of deep breaths.

"Well, it wasn't the height that bothered her it was the fear of falling. Don't tell her I told you this, but she has a bit of a phobia about falling. She hides it very well, but if she even feels like she's about to fall she'll get horribly scared." Celestia said giving a sigh.

"That's good to know, I mean she is supposed to teach me how to fly." He said, making Celestia raise an eyebrow. "It's because my wings are built more like your's and Luna's."

"Make sense, just be careful then because you might give her a heart attack if you end up taking her with you. Before you say anything, yes you will fall quite a few times and if you grab Luna she'll panic right along with you." Celestia warned.

"Alright, I got it. So you got any more stories about when you two were younger?" He asked, making Celestia give a little laugh.

"I have a lot of stories like that, but I think we need to go get that gift for Luna and head back," Celestia said looking at the position of the sun.

"Yeah, guess you're right but you can tell me more while we walk." He said standing up from his chair.

"Deal, but I have to wonder what kind of story would you like to hear though?" Celestia asked.

"How about this time you tell me a cute story about Luna." He suggested.

"I have just the story then," Celestia said, as they started making their way to the stores.

They walked for a good ten minutes before they finally arrived at the shop that Celestia had in mind. He now knew why it took a bit of time before she returned from seeing if they still had whatever in stock. Though as they entered, he couldn't help but think of a little Luna trying to dance in a little outfit she designed herself, though that uniform is now standard for ballet.

"So, what am I supposed to be looking for in here?" He asked looking at a couple of shelves.

"Follow me and I'll show you," Celestia said, walking up to the front desk.

"Ah, Princess, I assume this is the nice stallion your sister is dating that's interested in buying a gift for her?" The cashier said as they walked up.

"Yup, this is the one I was telling you about and didn't I say he was different?" Celestia asked.

"He certainly is different from anything I've seen alright. Anyways, I bet you're not here to make small talk are you?" The cashier asked.

"Small talk is fine, but I am more interested in what Celestia has in mind for me getting Luna." He replied, and the cashier nodded.

"Well, I have to admit that when Celestia told me that her sister's coltfriend was interested in buying this for her, I nearly passed out from the excitement. After all, Luna has been interested in this piece for a long time, though she never bought it." The cashier said.

"What exactly do you sell here? I mean i see a lot of nic-naks, are they like collectibles or something?" He asked.

"Oh yes, these are imported from different lands. Some are extremely valuable and rare. Like the piece Luna was interested in, she said that it would complete a collection she had started since being back." The cashier said, a slight twinkle in his eyes.

"Okay, first how much are we talking about, and second how come Luna never bought it if it would complete her collection?" He asked.

"Ah, well first to answer your second question. The reason why I don't think she bought it is that she didn't want to complete her collection just yet, though she has been making payments on it. But it's still open to buy, and thanks to her making payments it's not that expensive right now." The cashier answered.

"Um, isn't that illegal or something because she pretty much reserved it, and from the sounds of it almost has it paid off?" He couldn't help but ask.

"Normally, yes, but that's unless the customer request that it stay up for sale for anypony else to buy it. Now as for how much, she only had twenty bits left to pay, so that's all I'm asking for." The cashier said.

"Well, first can I see this collectible before I buy it? Also, can you tell me a little more about the collection it belongs to?" He asked.

"Oh sure, let me go get it." The cashier ran to the back and when he came back, he was carrying a nice wooden box. "This particular collection comes from the land of the Minotaur's, who used very rare materials only found there. Only a few sets of these have ever been made." The cashier opened the box to reveal a creature that he didn't recognize.

"You see Brandon, that's Tres. A creature that was only seen once, and only by Minotaur's who had to vanquish it, the fight claimed many lives. This collection is about other creatures that the Minotaur's had to fight on their own, and as a result, lost many lives. Before you ask, they did ask for help but by the time our forces got there the battle was already over." Celestia said a sad smile on her face.

"So, these figures are to commemorate battles fiercely fought and won?" Celestia nodded. "This happened while Luna was on the moon and that's why she collects these particular ones?"

"Yes, she believes that if she had been here she could have been there much faster and saved more lives," Celestia replied.

"So, how did this one get here?" He asked, looking at the cashier.

"A noblemen from the Minotaur homeland didn't want his anymore, said his family suffered enough from the beast. So he gave them to me because he didn't want the reminder. So, we have a deal then?" The cashier asked.

He decided to take a few minutes to think about it, and to investigate the figure of the creature. When he picked it up, the material made his skin crawl, it was familiar in a horrible way that the figure felt. It took him a minute to figure out what the figure was made out of, and he almost got sick.

"Yes, it is made of bone from Tres himself. Though his bones may feel the same as your's or mine, it's made up of ice that doesn't seem to melt. All of the figures that Luna had gotten are made from the bones of the creature." The cashier said, and Brandon put the figure back in the box.

"You okay?" Celestia asked, seeing the sudden changes in him.

"Uh, yeah, just I'm not going to touch it again, the feeling is too creepy for me." He said, shutting the box. "But yeah, I'll go ahead and take it for Luna, which by the way when is she supposed to make her next payment anyways?"

"Later today, she'll be disappointed that I sold it, but I have a feeling she's going to get cheered up later." The cashier said, hoof wrapping the box. "There you go, tell Luna I hope she enjoys having her collection completed."

After fully paying for the figure, they browsed around for a bit longer. Brandon found a nice little collection of figures that he looked at for a good minute, and the cashier told him the story of the collection. Though the entire collection was out of his price range, and he didn't want to put it on the same system that Luna did. Shortly after both him and Celestia left the store, and it was Celestia who started up the conversation.

"So, how far did you go with my sister so far?" Celestia asked, her smile was twisted into a mischievous grin.

"Um, we kissed and that's about it." He answered, trying to avoid the alicorns knowing look.

"Oh really, so you didn't give her a massage? I mean not like the one you gave Derpy, but gave her wings a nice massage?" The question only made him feel just a bit more awkward.

"Well, um, uh, y-yeah I did but what does that have to do with anything?" He replied.

"Oh, you silly human male. I know you weren't blind to how Luna was reacting, and in truth, I know how sensitive her wings get when she's excited." He gave her a questioning look. "No, I don't know from experience I know from the castles massage therapist. Before you ask, a lot of guards tend to suffer from muscle or bone damage due to their time in service. Though the masseuse is open to anypony, and that's why I know of Luna's sensitive wings when she gets excited."

"Alright, I may have given her a wing massage, but that's as far as we've gone." He said.

"Hmm, and what if one of your herd members wants to take it further than just you, um, well I guess for you it would be called fingering them?" Celestia asked, making it seem like the temperature just skyrocketed.

"I-if they want to go that far this early in the relationship, then I will have a little trouble to answer them." He answered.

"Are you sure? Because I'm getting the feeling that you don't feel like you could satisfy them because you feel like you're smaller than the average stallion." Celestia saw him tense up, an angry scowl on his face.

"How about we just quit talking for a bit?" He suggested.

"Hmm, okay but I will tell you this. When you were going around naked, most ponies didn't actually look at you because they're used to avoiding looking at other's privates. But I will say that I managed a few quick peeks at you, and all I have to say is that I think you'll do fine in bed." Celestia gave a wink, though what she just said made him, even more, self-conscious and like he had somehow been taken advantage of.

They walked for a good ways in silence taking in the scenery around them, and it really did surprise him at how friendly and normal they acted towards Celestia. Not that he didn't expect that to a certain degree, but they acted more like they were friends with her and not like she was a Princess at all. It wasn't too long before they started talking again.

"So, do you know something about one of my marefriends that I don't?" He couldn't help but blurt out, and in all honesty, he had a completely different question he was about to ask.

"Since you asked, I know Luna is ready. She may put on the act of she isn't going to go that far until she gets married, but she does want to take it to the next level. After all, you two do live together and that's good enough for her to want the next level of physical contact with you. Also, you didn't hear this from me but from what my sister's maids talk about, Luna seems to like to role play you taking her, and that she even asked one of the maids on tips on how to seduce a stallion to bed." Celestia said.

"You know a lot more about your sister's sexual life than you should. I mean, it's creepy because you're her older sister." He said, and Celestia could only shrug.

"That may be true, but I can't help what the staff reports to me. Besides, I'm sure Luna know's just as much of my sexual desires as I know of her's. So fair is fair, and trust me when I say that here in Equestria at least one family member knows about a ponies sexual side and desires. I know that's not how it works where you come from, but it's been that way even before me and Luna took over." Celestia said.

"Well, that's just a bit creepy to me. I mean in a way it would make sense to have someone in the family to talk to about that stuff. But to humans, to talk about that stuff even to the family is just awkward." He said, and Celestia nodded.

"It's not that it isn't awkward, it's the fact that you feel so close to that family member that you can tell them anything because you trust them. From what you told me about your human world, their's barely any trust among family, let alone friends." Celestia said, giving him a look of pity.

"So, Luna is ready to you know?" He asked nervously.

"As I said, it's enough for her that you two live together. Even if you two did just start dating not too long ago. I mean she may act like she has high standards for those things, and at one point she would have held out until her standards were met. But since she came back, her standards changed." Celestia answered. "Though the question is, are you ready? Because I do realize what I said to you earlier offended you, and hurt your self-esteem even though I was trying to give you a compliment."

"I know that, and I'm over it. But to answer your question, in truth I am ready but as we discussed earlier I am worried that I might not meet their needs." He said, and after saying that he wanted to bash his head on a wall.

"Well, you'll never know until you try, and I know how tough it must be for you to say all of this. But you're going to have to trust me on this, I'm sure you'll be enough to satisfy your mares. After all, you do have an exotic shape to it." Celestia laughed at how uncomfortable and red he had gotten, though this time there was no tension in the air.

"Yeah, laugh it up now." He said under his breath.

"Sorry, and just know if you need somepony to talk to about this kind of thing again I'm always open. Oh, and a little advice for you if you decide to make a move. Just know that Luna hasn't been intimate with anypony." Celestia said.

"So, she's a..." Celestia nodded before he finished.

"You were actually the first one she let finish the wing massage, I might add. Other than the castles massuse of course." Celestia said. "So you should feel special in the fact that you gave her first orgasm. At least her first one she didn't give herself."

"I still find it creepy that you know all of this stuff about her." He muttered and then he stopped and looked at Celestia. "Wait, she did cum?"

"Yes, she did. Also, since she enters my more personal dreams, then it's only fair I get to hear about her fantasies and such. Though I feel like talking about dinner, how about you?" Celestia asked, making him look at the sun that had already set.

"Uh, sure I could go for some dinner. Did you have a place in mind?" He asked.

"Actually I did, follow me please," Celestia said, as she began to walk down the main street.

"Man, hope Luna isn't going to be busy tonight." He said following her.

"Don't worry, I arranged it to where her adviser will take over her responsibilities tonight. But right now she's probably still asleep." Celestia said. "So she has tonight off, and then only a week left before she can return. But enough of that hears the place I had in mind."

He looked to where she waved her head and saw a nice little restaurant that looked like it had been there for centuries. Though, as they walked in he couldn't help but notice the place smelled like barbecue but all of the staff dressed up nicely. That made him almost bust out laughing, going to a fancy barbecue place.

"Ah, Princess Celestia right this way please." A host said, and both him and Celestia followed.

As they passed by different tables, he saw what kind of barbecue to expect and he couldn't help but let his stomach growl. The place had a smokey smell to it, so he knew that all of the food was smoked. It wasn't until the host said something that he realized that they had come to an empty table in the corner.

"Here you and your... pet are princess." The host said looking him over.

"He is no one's pet, know go fetch our waitress now and you might have a chance to get another job around here," Celestia said, making the host nod in panic and place the menus before going off.

"Uh, thanks I guess." He said as he sat down.

"No problem, sometimes nobles are racist bastards that I can't stand," Celestia said as she looked at the menu nonchalantly.

"So I've noticed," he said looking at the menu himself. "Oh, I didn't realize that anyplace here had Root beer."

"Only Canterlot has it, it's a bit of a specialty here. It's brewed with a special root that only grows on this mountain." Celestia said. "You should try it, though remember it might be a bit different than what humans make."

"I know, but I am going to try it. I mean I loved Root beer all throughout my life." He said, and saw a little smile on Celestia's face but shrugged it off.

"Um, h-hi I'll be your um, w-waitress for tonight." He froze, the voice he knew very well.
