The details of the last nights dream are recalled by Amber

Amber ends up in an open hall of marble floors - the other details are not clear - that pretty well follows the stylistic standard for large public and commercial buildings in Baltimare, at least for designs of the last half century. Amber is there with the orange stallion, but also two other stallions aged 25 and 40 or so, who are dressed in formal business suits. One wears his hat, while the other has it on his back, showing off a well combed black mane. What was Mustard so afraid of? He really ought to be here. But he didn’t want to go with the stallion, and the stallion did not want him to come along.

The stallion tells Amber that some years before, he lost the mare he loved. She was a lover he never married, though it seems he wish he did, or could have. He wants to reclaim her, to be with her again. He speaks of her as if she were dead, but the dead cannot be reclaimed. Perhaps she went and married another. Perhaps she moved away. He says that he has waited many years, and has travelled very far to come here for her. He says that over the years, he has tried to replace her. But there is no replacement, only her. He explains that some how, a specific tablet is the key to reclaiming her. Perhaps it is the link to her memory, perhaps it is the key to whereabouts, or perhaps it will remind her of her love for him. In all of these details, there is vagueness, and any answers the dream may have provided have since been lost in waking life.

What is not vague is Amber's memory of the tablet itself. He shows it to her. The tablet is rather large, a foot and a half wide, two feet tall, and three inches thick. Perhaps it is stone, but it looks more like Iron Pyrite, and more than half of its surface is gilded in gold, silver, and electra, with three red gemstones that appear to be rubies recessed into its surface. The stallion actually does have an explanation for what it is. It's a prayer tablet, with a number of common prayers written on it for the religious ceremonies typical to the civilization that constructed it. It was made by one of those ancient civilizations of the north and west of Zebrica, to a culture that ceased to exist and was ancient long before Celestia took the throne.

The tablet is remarkably well preserved, though Amber cannot read it. Each ruby has rays emanating from it, and equines around it. At the top, it is something like the sun. It is rain and new life to the left, and death and the underworld on the right. At least that's the best guess of what each set must mean. In a ring that wraps around the tablet, there are a number of monsters, or animals. If they correspond to any beasts that exist in modern times, they must surely be stylized depictions. One resembles a hydra, another a dragon, another an octopus, and another an equine. Yet each is uncanny, deviating from its inspiration enough to call the the interpretation into question. Maybe this was made back when the creatures of today did not exist in the form they are today. Indeed, perhaps this was made back in the time before horses and ponies - and donkeys and zebras - were so different.

The stallion looks Amber in the eyes with his own, dark brown eyes, and tells her that this tablet is the key to a past forever gone. His past. And he tells her that Amber is a part of that reclamation. He needs her.

But that is what is remembered

"He he" he giggles. He immediately goes to the bed, and lays down on it. He lays on his belly, places his forehooves out in front, and smiles towards Amber.

"Have look around while I get your things. My home is open to you."

Silver heads for the front door of the house, intent on getting to the car, getting the colts' items, and bringing the stuff inside.

Amber pauses for a minute in her room and closes her eyes, fixating on the sudden memory of that dream as intensely as a connoisseur would on a glass of wine. Is this stallion real? Is this tablet real? Impossible–no, not impossible, for messages often come in dreams. In any case, nothing she has experienced or even read could explain the details of his dress or his tablet.

The stallion left no direction to help her; was something else forgotten? She can only stay alert, ready to one day find that tablet. And she must do so before she settles down.

She opens her eyes, chagrined that her mystical experience distracted her from the moment. She places her dress off to the side, then trots up to Mustard and kisses him on the lips.

Mint Marine looks around, and moves off into the right into the dining area. Silver moves through the living room, past White Orchid, Jubilosa, and Clip, and towards the front door. He is alone when he goes outside to the car, and retrieves any desired items.

>>157258
Mustard moves his head up, and returns her kiss. His ears go down, and his eyelid move down in part.

Amber does remember one more detail. The orange stallion said that Amber looked "fine," and reminded him of his lost lover in several ways. It was those words, spoken at the hotel ballroom's bar, that made Mustard Trim uncomfortable... for whatever that is worth.

Strange…is it normal for stallions to compliment me so much? I don't think I deserve it.

She closes her eyes and continues kissing Mustard. She turns her head a little to the side to get a better angle and softly moans as she continues.

At least she thinks that's what he said. Who knows. It wasn't very clear in context then, and it isn't clear now.

He moves his head up to make better contact with her, and gently starts to move his tongue in. He extends a hoof, and tries to place it over her.

White Orchid and then seconds later, Mint Marine approach

He opens his leg, and then places her under him, so that she is held in his embrace. He giggles, closes his eyes, and starts nuzzling her in turn.

He moves his leg further out, and tries to rub her back and shoulder. He tries to place his other foreleg under her neck, and to rub her cheek with it. He extends his hind left leg over her flank. Most of all, he nuzzles her aggressively along her head and neck.

"Now how do you figure that?" he asks

Amber lets him place his legs around her and nuzzle her. One of her forelegs rubs his side while her hind leg brushes along and feels his plot. She looks at him with a warm smile under half-lidded eyes.

"Because you're the best. You're so kind and generous and handsome…ain't nothin' I'd rather do than just be smommickin' with you."

“All of this.” He says

“… who are they, exactly?”
He had something like an awkward smile.

>>157276
His thighs are rather large as he has a considerable amount of leg. No muscle stands out, but simply to cover so much in an even layer proves he has a lot of it.

The way he places his legs around her almost buries her, like he doesn’t want her to get up. Hdd we moved his muzzle around, and repeatedly presses into her and rubs her.

“Thank you…” he says, not pausing the nuzzling.

“‘Smommicin’’?”

“Oh. Heh heh.”

He continues the nuzzling. It seems this is what he really wanted to do when the two arrived at work, snd it’s what he chooses to do now. He rubs her with both hind legs and forelegs, reaching around to rub behind her ears.

He asks,
“You think they really wanted to use that room with random customers?”

It is indeed very cozy. She wouldn't mind staying like this forever, feeling rubbed and caressed all over. She can't reciprocate as much, though her foreleg is on his side and her hind leg is on his plot.

"Maybe? Who can say? But they did really want to keep it clean."

She considers the hypocrisy of his statement, considering they did make it happen in that private office which other ponies must frequent.

“I guess” he says. He moves his muzzle back and lays it on the bed, and then tries to move the pillow so it is under his head. Amber can see that his cheeks are pressed in and an ear folds down in contact with the bedsheet.

“You’re missing the point. Just… imagine a hypothetical mare. It could be Salt Mixer. It could be my sister. It could be you when I’m not looking for all I know. Just… imagine a hypothetical mare. Don’t think of any specific mare at all, just a blank, nameless, hypothetical mare that looks like one of those things they pose clothes on in stores. Now, imagine that there’s a stallion she knows only from the bar. Maybe she’s seen him before and maybe she hasn’t. To me it does not matter. But they go back and have sex in the back room, or back at his place or wherever. And then that is the end of the relationship. They never intended on getting married or anything. Tell me. What do you think of that?”

"I think that sex is serious and sacred and it isn't a play thing. I think that it should be one stallion with one mare for life. If you have to break with that because of your spouses death or infidelity or something, you should deviate as little as possible.
