Guided By The Light
Chapter 19: Palutena's guidance #2 (unedited)
Previous Chapter Next ChapterThe title card shows up to the sound of an applauding audience, the studio lights up revealing Twilight at the question desk and Palutena at her desk whoich had grown longer and now had Celestia, Luna, the rest of the bearers and Theia sitting next to her,
“Welcome back, I am your host and this is Palutena's guidance, the show where you get to ask Palutena, her family and friends, those burning questions!” Twilight exclaimed happily, “and welcome back Palutena,” she added.
“It's great to be back, alongside my family and friends, to answer the public's questions,” Palutena said with a warm smile.
“First question comes from Nightmarezeal and they want to know, Palutena and Celestia have you ever gotten into any fetishes?” Palutena and Celestia blushed, while Luna gained a faraway stare.
“We have experimented, when your partner can transform either herself or others, but haven't gotten into any fetishes.” Celestia answered carefully.
“Next questions come from ShadowCloud; Twilight, Before my questions I would like to apologize for making you cry in the last Palutena's guidance,”
Twilight paused reading to look up at the audience and smiled, “Apology accepted, and since the last Palutena's guidance, Theia and I have been adopted, by Palutena and Celestia.”
Twilight continued to read, “Now my questions. To Celestia, Luna, and Twilight. How does it feel to be anthro?”
They took on thoughtful expressions, Luna was the first to answer, “These hands have been very useful for my games, especially MMOs and fighting games and having another way to manipulate things should my magic be incapacitated is also a boon, my only complaint is the feet, I have stubbed my toes many times and it hurts.”
The others looked at Luna with sympathy, next up was Twilight, “I must also agree that I love hands and fingers,” Twilight started off and began to blush, “ the one thing I don't like is how my breasts keep catching on bookshelves.” She grimaced, and Celestia spoke next,
“I love it too, so much more practical, it adds a new avenue for technology and new spells to develop which having hands will enable, alongside advances in magitek and enchanting. Keeping balance has been difficult as I keep forgetting my center of gravity has changed.” She blushed sheepishly.
Everyone turned to Palutena, who sighed. “It's not that odd as an ex human/humanoid and as someone with shapeshifting abilities, I am already used to different forms, what took some getting used to was the quadruped alicorn form.”
“Onto his next question, Palutena, are you worried that all the constant shape-shifting will cause problems for your kids?” Twilight read aloud, Palutena drew in a breath and let it out,
“Yes, I am worried, although so far no anomalies have occurred and the foals outwardly look fine on doctor’s visits. I can't stop worrying, then again all expectant mothers worry, or at least so I am told. Stress is likely going to cause more issues than the shapeshifting.” Palutena explained.
“Twilight and Luna, now that you two are together, have you two done the deed (if you know what I mean) or are you waiting for a special time?” Twilight read aloud with a deep blush on her face, shortly joined by Luna's blushing,
“No, not yet,” Twilight squeaked adorably.
“Alright moving on,” She said hastily. “Twilight, one, how does it feel to have a family again? Two, if Palutena marries Celestia and Palutena adopted you making you her daughter and Luna is Celestia's sister, doesn't that mean that you are dating your aunt? (I'm not judging you two, love will always find a way.) And finally three; How confusing is it to have numerous different versions of yourself in your mom's temple?
“Wow, a three in one. Well number one is simple, I am extremely happy to have a family again. Two it is perfectly legal for in-laws to marry and have relationships, so long as they aren't the ones who are the reason you are in-laws, so I couldn't date/marry Celestia or Palutena but Luna and any siblings nieces or cousins in law are fair game. This restriction doesn't apply to adult ponies engaged in familial sex as bonding. For some reason when the law was passed the nobles were quite adamant about that passing into law.” Twilight shrugged, “As for three, it was confusing at first, obvious differences helped distinguish between us, but some of them got transformed and renamed for some reason.” Celestia and Palutena blushed upon hearing what she said.
“Celestia, Luna, and Palutena, What are you going to do with Bluebelle after she gets out of the dungeon in 9 years? Are you going to banish her from Equestria or just Canterlot?” Palutena and Celestia scowled at the mention of her,
“Assuming she gets out and is a reformed pony, she will be sent to a temple and strictly monitored. Should she reoffend, then she will be petrified for a hundred years, should she still reoffend she will be thrown into Tartarus.” Palutena said matter of factly.
Twilight shivered as she picked the next question, “zoruatrainer66 asks Palutena, who is in the Pantheon in your world?”
Palutena looked down in thought, “At the top tier is Faust, Celestia and Luna's mother, and Cosmos, who is their father. Also myself, goddess of light, dark, order, chaos, harmony, wisdom and craftsmanship, and Discord, who is also god of chaos.
Tier two; Gaia or Viridi, mother of life and nature,Thanatos, god of death and destruction, and Hades, god and king of the Tartarus. After them is tier three, being Celestia, goddess of the sun and day and Luna, goddess of the moon, stars and night.
Then tier four is Nightmare moon, goddess of nightmares, the king of the Griffins and God of storms Valfyre, the dragon lady, also goddess of fire, lady Evyrfyre, the minotaur king Runehorn, God of earth and mountains. Princess Cadance goddess of love, the goddess Rin who isn't an official goddess of this world yet and my second mother(it's complex), Avarice, goddess of fertility and sex. Did I miss anyone?” Palutena asked Celestia,
“Yes, Queen of the katians Bastet, goddess of Luck and stealth. Alabim, king of Saddle Arabia and horses, god of speed and endurance. Queen abyssia, of the seaponies and sirens and goddess of the seas. And Nemesis, goddess of revenge, those are the only ones officially part of the pantheon here,” Celestia replied.
“That's a lot of gods,” Twilight remarked, “Anyway, next question is for Fluttershy. Fluttershy, where did you receive your cleric training?”
“Epp!... Um… I, like all Pegasi, worship Lady Palutena as our main goddess, I was trained in the cloudsdale Church of Wind, Each Pegasus city has a church named after part of the weather, although Pegasi worship you for your weather control, it's not too rare to find a Pegasus who worships Palutena for craftsmanship, I am a cleric of the latter path, and I became Ponyville’s head cleric.” Fluttershy explained.
“His next question is, Celestia, how does it feel knowing you will soon be a parent?” Twilight asked.
“Honestly, I am equal parts elated and equal parts scared that I'm not going to be a good parent,” Celestia lamented as her ears fell to the sides, Palutena wrapped her in a hug and kissed her cheek,
“Celestia, you're going to be a great parent and you're not alone, I’ll be with you, and so will our friends and family.” Palutena reassured her.
“Luna, do you remember what happened to you during Palutena's heat when she came back?” Came Twilight's voice.
Luna was quiet and looked off into the distance, “I will never look at cake or sandwiches in the same way,” she answered in a disconnected tone of voice.
“Discord, how are you doing?” As Twilight asked he appeared, “Better than ever Twilight, sure I am restricted, but this has made me work harder to cause chaos ponies love!” He cheered.
“Palutena, how has business been with your shop?” Came the next question.
“Yes, it's going well, most however seem to avoid tiers higher than two. Perhaps they are too difficult? And money is pouring in faster than can be sorted or counted. I think I should expand or update the vendor.” Palutena said as she began writing something down.
“Shadowgod3221 wants to know Celestia, do you really have a *ahem* stallion hood?” Twilight stammered out.
Celestia blushed,” Yes I do, so does Luna,” Celestia looked to Luna, “If I am going down I'm taking you with me sister,” she said in response to Luna gasping in shock. Meanwhile, out of Celestia’s sight, Palutena held her left palm flat and pointed up vertically near her chest and with her other hand, also in the same position, stretched her other arm as far as it could go to show the length of Celestia's member.
Some snickering from Rarity got Celestia's attention, her eyebrows rose as she started chasing and swatting a giggling Palutena around the studio for revealing her size.
