Author's Notes:

Sorry for the chapter being so short. Comment who you think is the unknown person or entity at the end!

“If I say sorry will you stop being angry?” I asked stupidly as I stated at the trio of females. Celestia facehoofed and teleported away. Melody walked up to me and stared at me in concern over something I could not see.

“No. I am not angry. Just disappointed.” Typical. Blame all your shit on me why don't you?! She was talking the marble floor with her hoof irritably, “You need to learn to stop running away from your problems. Yesterday you said tomorrow. Well today is tomorrow. Just do it! Don't let your dreams be dreams!” I stared at her incredulously. No way. The level of what the fuck I don't even is so high I could just…

“A FEMALE SHIA LABEOUF?!” I fainted next to Amor. Yes. Let's call Cadence II that instead.

12 Hours Later…

Location: Melody Manor Mansion

“He's waking up!” Amor said excitedly. I groaned and turned around in my bed. Wait… bed? I started moving my hands around and feeling around me without opening my eyes. Alas, I was indeed in a bed that of which be not my own. Well. At least I have a few options here… play along? Or get the fuck out of… wherever here is. I mulled it over for a few seconds before resigning myself to my fate. Fine, I'll play along… for now.

I opened my eyes and confirmed I was indeed not in my armor, but rather I was snuggled next to Amor and Melody. I would have made a witty remark but I decided that it just wasn't the time. I decided to ask the million dollar question, “What?” I look around the room in confusion as I take in all the details. There was a single grand chandelier hanging over the center of the room which seemed to be made entirely of diamond. The floor on the other hand… or hoof, whichever you prefer, was a strange yet seamless and beautiful mix of obsidian and quartz. The windows were decorated but not to the point of it hurting your eyes. There were a few tables and dressers here and there. Overall, and yes I am surprised to admit this considering how contradictory you would think it should have been, everything was fancy but not overly so. Just enough to get the point across while providing a splendid bedroom. Damn. When did I become a connoisseur?

“It is… huh. Never thought I would… live in a place like this.” Melody smirked at that.

“Don't act like you don't prefer your military bases and armor. It must make you feel oh so safe.” She then rolled her eyes, “Well. We have a long way to go. You won't be leaving this beautiful place for a long time…” Amor nuzzled into my chest while Melody scooted closer to her.

“You better not try to turn me into a pony… at least… Not with this kind of lifespan.” I vaguely heard the two tilt their ears in my direction somehow. Huh. Weird.

“That thought hadn't even entered my mind.” Melody said with a titter, “You can't force somepony or in your case someone to be different, lest you destroy them.”

I blinked at her, “Do you have some kind of holographic screen telling you quotes or something?” She looked at me in confusion before glaring at me with a pained expression. I put my hands up defensively, “Sorry…” I muttered. Her glare softened and she turned her gaze to the sleeping Amor.

“We need to agree on something. She might think we are…” My eyes widened. She is an incarnation of love after all.

“Okay.” I said with a sigh. I looked down at Amor who was holding me pretty tightly so as to not lose her source of happiness, “The things I do for love… literally.”
